Ni-:w YORK, Oct. ll.
Mr. Robcrtson, accompanied by a Lady,
made a very" handsome ascension yesterday
from Castle Garden, and highly gratified the
great uiultitiirle who wit.ness«—d the pcrforin-
The Garden was well filled with s‘p_et:-
tators, who continued to pour in until the as-
censiou took place, and it was es-tiiiiaied the
receipts must have been from 2000 to £2500
dollars. The coiico_urse of people on iheBat-
tery was as great as ever seen on a similar oc-
casion; several steam boats and row boats,
filled with passengers covered the river in the
vicinity ofthe scene, and the house tops and
whzirves within the view exhibited great. iium-
bcrs of people. It is believed the ascension
persons. During the day the wind blew
fresh from N. E. btit towards night the wea-
ther became remarkably favorable for the ex-
cursion, the atmosphere being clear, and the
wind liavii‘..'; changed to a little south of east,
and almost entirely subsided.
The preparations were conducted in a ski}-
fiil iiiaiiiier. The large Balloon was filled at
the appointed hour, after which four small
Balloons, each ofabout nine or ten feet dialli-
ctcr, handsomely decorated, were iuflatetl,and
g;iil.inds of flowers, separate from the main
Bailooii, wliicli rose above them in the centre.
"While these. picparattoiis were going on, two
or tiircc small biillcous were sent up to lll(ll-
caie the current ofthe air, and the SPBCUIIDIN
were eiitcrtaiiietl by the music of the Garden
At a little '.ifter,sunsel, Mr. Robertson
l;()ll(.lllCl8(l the lady who wa-to accompany
him to the Car, where she took her seat ap
‘pareiitly with much resolution. She was ofa
delicate form and liandsoiiie counteiiance,and
excinad great interest particularly among the
Spectators of her own sex, who expressed
much anxiety for the result of her perilous eu-
terprize. Mr. Robertson ,then took his seat
at the opposite end ofthe Car, and after ad
justiiig his ballast, Ste. gave the word to let go.
The squadron of Balloons then ascciuleri:
slowly and iiizijcstically, the undauutcd Prion-
uauts as they departed waving their lianrls and
bowmg to the spectators. As they gradually
arose, the five bolloons, the liatidsoiiiely dec-
orated Cal, and the distinct appearance of im-
zcrial voyagers, presciited one of the most
beautiful and interesting scenes ofthe kind
cver beheld in this city. The spectators ex-
pressed their approbation by repeated shouts.
\Vheu the Balloons had attained the height
ofabout 150 feet, the image of a child was
suspended from the car by ribbons, and had a

slow, and the spectators were eiiabled to trace

‘Wall Slreet.——All the preparations being
ready, the workmen have begun this morning
to raise the stiipeirdous columns in front of
the Exchange, and many liuiidreds ofpeople
have the curiosity to stand for hours and view
the operations. Weare glad there is some-
thing to dissipate, ifbut for a day or two, the
gloom which has brooded over Wall street for
a fortnight past, and which bids fair to hang
there for a fortnight longer. We will not
vouch, that there are as y‘€t any owls and bats
there ; but we have often been reinindcd of
deserted and desolate Babylon, since the coin-
mcnccmeiit of the Oyer and Terininer. The
season of vegetation is over, or the grass would
ere long have been gr,een and rank in the
street. And then to think ofilie poor bro-

secrets ofthe prison house. Now and then,
however, a forlorn visage is for :1 moment
lighted tip with a smile, when some too veri-
tursome brother has a choice secret accident-
ally wrung from his lips; but it is transient as
the suiibeaiiis which occasionally dart through
the sorubre clouds OfNOVEll)l)el‘—-ll warms Xst.
clictrrs for the momeiit, and straiglitivay all is
gloomy and cold again. For even he who
smiles for the moment to see his rival trip, is
compelled to take earnest heed lest he be
found the next moment tripping liimsclf. We
trust, however, that their sorrows will soon be
over. To-day the counsel forthe prosecution
will probably close liistestiuiony, and to-iiior-
row the brokers can go to work in healing the
wounds he has inflicted. And it is believed
that after they come out of the ordeal, and re-
turn to their domir.-ils, released from their
cs bonds,” they will be able tolead more coin-
fortable lives——at all events they will be free
of one annoyance, as it is understood that the
rats have already fled from their cellars with
tears in their eyes !—Spectator.

at the Police Ofiice yesterday morning at half
past five _o’clock. that a duel was on foot, be-
tween a Mr. S""‘*****, and at Mr. B***”**, and
unless preveiited, would be fouglit early that
nioriiiiig, at Hoboken. Mr. Justice Hopson
was instantly on the alert, and repaired him
selfto one ofthe Jersey fcrics, and dispatched
some officers to the other. , It was in season :
for the officer had but just arrived at the Bar-
clay street ferry before the gentleman against
whom the con-iplaiiit was made,
made his appearance at the Ferry-house, and
was ofcotirse politely taken into custody. He
refused to give bail neither to shoot his antag-
onist, nor stiffer liimself to be shot, and was
taken to prison, where he remained at the lasi
advices. Iiiforuiation was soon afterwards
received, that the other party, seconds, doc-
tors, pistols and all, were at theferry, and of-
ficers were sent to make them captives also.-

Free Negroes in the Soulliern Prisons. —
There is now-in prison at Petersburgh a black,
a young mau,born free in N. Y. and the proofs
ofwhose freedom have been laid before the
competent authorities ofthat district,by whom
me property lost is said to_ have been about a
million of dollars-
he has been ordered to be liberated onthe pay-
ment oilrisjail fees. These fees ainouiitlo
betweeneiglity and ninety dollars, and unless
they are paid, the poor fellow must be sold in-
to slavery! Things have truly arrived at a
fine pass, when not only are the free men of
the north, because the Almighty has made
them black, seized and imprisoned while pur-
suing theirlawful business at the south; but
even after their freedom is so clearly estab-
lished that there can be no dispute about it,
they are still held in durance to be sold,unless
the benevolence of individuals at the North
will raise money to line the pockets ofthe offi-
cers ofthe South, in the shape ofjail fees,
which have been unconstitiitioiially accumu-
lated. ’-.Ve are happy, however, to announce,
that measures are in a train to put an end at
once and forever, to these higli-handed and
illegal proceedings. An extra ineetiug ofthe
Mauiiinission Society was called last weeks
at which resolutions were passed directing a
‘prosecution to be commenced in the case of
the young man imprisoned at Petersburgh—
with an understanding that the case of HO!‘-
tou may be prosecuted also, should it be tlio’t
expedient to select that case to test the great
appointed to take the business in hand, and
raise the ways and means for prosecuting the
suit or suits, with all possible vigour until the
decision ofthe highest tribunal in the land is
obtained. Able counsel have been consulted,
and the committees will immediately enter
upon the execution oftheir duties. No com-
promise will be accepted, until the laws ofthe
Southern States under which for a long series
ofyears these aggressions have been practi-
sed, are repealed, or until they shall have been
declared unconstitutional and void by the Sn-
preme Court The Constitution declares that
the citizens ofauy individual State, shall be
entitled to all the privileges and iinmuuities of

“I have to inform you that the steam boats
Plienix and Congress ran foul ofeaeh other
night before last, nearly opposite Port Kent.
The Congress had one oflier quarters torn
ofI'—-two passengers killed, and a number se-
vcrely injured. The mail from Canada was
lost, supposed overboard.”
Sonieofthe passengers who were on board
tlfe Congress (which was the boat bound this
way) have.reached this city. They inform
that the two boats came in Contact in conse
qtietice ofmistaking each others lights. Only
one person, a female deck passenger, was kil-
led, and one other seriously wounded. One
ofthe water wheels ofthe Congress was car-
ried away, and all the passengers’ baggage
from the deck. There was on board sotne
.g,;Cllllel-Dell from Canada on their way to this
city to eiiibarit for England, who were obliged
to return in consequence ofthis accident.-
The mail was small, but there was :1 consider-
able stiiii of uioney in the passengers trunks,
which were all lost. Scarce It single thing
llolllllle bllggage rooui was saved. One of
the proprietors being on board the Congress,
instantly gave direolioiis for every exertion to
be made to recover the baggage, but from the
great depth of water (considered from thirty
to forty l'cet,) there was btit littlc prospect ol
success. The Phenix was but slightly injurrd,
A most sliockiug occurrence took place on
the l7tli ultimo, below Louisville on the Ohio
river. Two citizens ofBonrbon County, by
the names ofStoue, and Mr. David Cobb, of

river, with about eighty negroes. A few of
them rose and killed iheirmasters, and a Mr.
Davis, a hired hand, and also a Mr. Gray, a
passenger, returning lioineto the state of His
sissippi. In all,_five persons were murdered.

fled into the country. Apart of them had
been taken.
