Ascent Of Mr. Sadler From...
F,From the Chester Chronicle'of Friday.1 The time at ALr. Sadler's ascent fiom Liverpool being announced in the papers of that town to take place at hali-past two o'clock this day, our city walls, from the Phtenix-tower, round to the W1'ater- tower, were crowded with anxious spectators, as were the tower of St. John's charch, and almost every point likely to catch a view of tbc aeronauts. A few minutes after four o'clock the impatience of the multitude was allayed, by the appearance of the baUoon apparently just above the horizon, in a direction a little east by no.rh of this city, and ap- parently about eight or ten miles distant. The'travellers continued in view above an hour and a half, and certainly a more sublime scene has seldom been witnessed. About a quarter past five o'clock the balleon appeared,to be on the gradual descent, and at halfpast five all view of it from this city was lost bv theintervention of the woods about Eloole and, Tratlord. The arrivil Df thenorEh mail brought usir4ormation that the descent took place in some meadows beyond Bridge Tridlford, about four miles frcna this city. It was accomplisbed without any diffiulty ; and ebaises being imiiediately despatched from hence, Mr. Sadler and Mir. Peel, with the balloon, proceeded directly to Liverpool. The day was very ravonrable; there was but little wind, and the aeronatits were about anhour and three quarters making a voyage of not more than la miles in a direct linie. QUIARTER ANTE NINE P. as.-._Mr. Sadler and Lieut. Peel have JUSt passed through this city from theAlbionMotel, in a.chaise and four, on their way tO Liverpool, amidst the' cheers of some thousands assembled. Mr. Sadler informs us the ascent from Li- verpool was superb: wvhen over Hooton-house, the seat of Sir Tho. mnas Stanley, they dropped a note. Their aLpproach altogether wvas in direct line for Lhester but whem neHasr oon, ^ new current. of ind took place,which urried theoiun sterl'direction. The 3reatcst altitude they attained was about a mile. ASCENT OF MKR. SADLER FROM LIVERPOOL,
