BALLOONS IN WARFARE. 



The first balloon used in warfare was that which, on September 

 23, 1870, ascended from Paris, piloted by the aeronaut Durouf, 

 with 250 pounds of letters, and after three hours' flight descended 

 reux, beyond the lines of the besieging Prussians. Sixty- 

 five balloons, each costing about $1,000, were similarly despatched 

 from Paris during that siege, carrying from 200 to 1,000 pounds 

 of letters each. All such letters were written on very thin paper, 

 the reverse side having printed on it news of the besieged city.
