WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 7.
BALLOON EXPLOIT.- Mr. Sadler ascended from Belvedere House, near Dublin, on the 1st inst. at 1 p.m. with the wind at S.W. and in 35 minutes had sight of the mountains in Wales; he continued in the same direction till 3 o'clock, and was fast approaching the Welsh coast when the wind shifting he was driven off, and lost sight of land; after hovering about some time, he discovered five vessels beating down Channel; and in hopes of assistance from them, he let out a quantity of gas, and descended into the sea : finding the vessels did not approach him, he threw out a quantity of ballast, and quickly regained his situation in the air : after looking out some time, he observed a small vessel making signals to him; another small vessel appeared in sight, and as night was coming on, he determined to seek their friendly aid, and once more descended into the sea; but here the wind acting upon the balloon as it lay upon the water, drew the car with so much velocity, that the vessel could not overtake it; and notwithstanding he used his utmost efforts, and latterly tied his cloaths to the grappling iron, and sunk them to keep him steady, still the balloon was carried away so fast, that he was under the necessity of expelling the gas; upon that escaping, the car actually sunk, and he had now nothing but the netting to cling to. His perilous situation, and the fear of getting entangled, deterred the men from coming near him; until, being in danger of drowning, Mr. Sadler begged they would run their bowsprit through the balloon, and expel the remaining gas. Having done this, they threw out a line, which he wound round his arm, and was then dragged a considerable way before they could get him on board, quite exhausted - The vessel was a herring fisher, from Douglas, in the Isle of Man, called the Victory, commanded by John Lee, who conveyed Mr. Sadler to Liverpool, but finding the crowd of spectators immense, his clothes being also wet, he paid a visit on board the Princess frigate, where he was politely received, and accommodated with clothes, by Lieut. Roache. On Saturday (the 3d) Mr. Sadler arrived at Holyhead, and on Sunday he sailed for Dublin.- Mr. Fellowes, the Agent for Packets at Holyhead, transmitted, by Mr. Sadler's desire, a hasty sketch of his proceedings to his friends in London. He attributes his not receiving assistance from the first vessels he saw to the terror his appearance occasioned to the people on board. The fear that he might be involved in darkness on his nearing the coast induced Mr. Sadler to descend at sea; and he intends making another attempt to cross from Dublin, when the Moon is nearly full, so that he may see his way. In this resolution Mr. Sadler certainly displayed much courage; but we cannot say much for his improvement in science, so far as it can be applied to aerostation; he was entirely indebted to chance for the preservation of his life in his late perilous undertaking.

NEWPORT, Isle of Wight, Oct. 8. On Tuesday last Sir Leonard T. Worsley Holmes, Bart. and Richard Holmes, Esq. were unanimously elected Members of this Borough for the ensuing Parliament, upon which occasion the gentlemen and most respectable inhabitants of the Island were invited by the Corporation to a very elegant dinner, at the Green Dragon Inn. Upwards of two hundred persons sat down at table. After many loyal and patriotic toasts has been given, the health of the new Members being proposed, Sir Leonard Holmes rose and addressed the Company. He observed that if, in returning thanks for the very flattering and distinguished honor they had done him, he felt more than the usual difficulty, he trusted the indulgence of the company would attribute it to its true source, to his utter inability to express in adequate terms those feelings to which their friendship and attachment had given rise. He should ever consider the present day as one of the proudest eras of his life, and he felt peculiar obligation to the worthy Mayor for his kindness and consideration in calling the respectable inhabitants of Newport together on that particular day, in which he was pleased to think they would feel gratified in witnessing the election, as their Representatives in Parliament, of the two sons of that man, who, whilst living, had ever been the object of their affection and regard; to whose heart the interests of the inhabitants of the town had ever been most dear; and who had proved himself the most upright Magistrate, the best of fathers, and the best of men ! He hoped the company would excuse his feelings in paying this tribute to the memory of his departed father, as he was persuaded that he could pursue no surer means of securing the esteem and approbation of the Island, than by making his conduct the model of his own, following his example, and emulating his virtues. That with respect to his own political career, he could assure them with the most heartfelt sincerity, that in every situation in which he should be placed, he would act as his best judgement and understanding should dictate, and give his support to those men, and those measures, which he conceived best calculated to promote the welfare, the glory, and the prosperity of his country; that the peculiar interest of his native town would ever be nearest to his heart; and whilst he had the happiness of witnessing the unanimity and friendship that prevailed around him, he felt additional pleasure in congratulating the inhabitants of the Island that the peace of the County was not to be disturbed, as he could not consider the opposition of Mr. Cobbett in any serious light. Sir Leonard then concluded a most elegant and interesting speech, by again thanking the company for the honor they had done him, and assuring them that the first object of his life would be to deserve their approbation, and to receive it his most gratifying reward.
Mr. Holmes then rose, and said, that after what they had just heard from his brother, little remained for him to add; he begged however, to assure the company, that in every sentiment his brother had expressed, whether of a political or private nature, in every word he had uttered, he most deeply and sincerely participated. He felt the honor that had been this day conferred upon him as gratifying to the best feelings of his heart; and he trusted that in the discharge of his public duties, he should be guided only by one principle, animated only by one sentiment, the good of his country, and the peculiar interests of the town that had done him the honor of reposing in him so important a trust. His gratitude, he said, was most eminently due for the general expression of their applause at the tribute paid to the memory of his lamented father; and he was gratified in the opportunity of saying, that since his death, as from their earliest days, he had the happiness of living with his brother on terms of the unbounded confidence and affection; that he well knew the principles and merits of his character, and he trusted that his life would be long preserved, as he was sure the longer he lived, the more he would deserve their confidence and approbation. Mr. Holmes than begged to return his sincerest thanks to the honor they had done him in drinking his health, and assured them that with a heart as full as his glass, he returned the grateful compliment.
"Prosperity to the Inhabitants and Trade of Newport" was then given by John Popham, Esq. the Mayor, when Mr. Sewell observed that, as a Town Clerk of the borough of Newport, he felt peculiar pleasure in rising to obey the instructions he had received from the worthy Major and Corporation, to communicate to the company the arrangements they had just concluded, for the public accommodation, in the erection of a new Town Hall and Market Place. The inconvenience and difficulties which the public experienced from the contracted size of the present Market Place and Guildhall, had long been felt and complained of; and it was in the recollection of most gentlemen present, that many plans had been proposed , and many schemes suggested, to remedy the inconvenience, that had unfortunately been found impracticable; he was happy, however, now to announce to the country, that the Corporation had at length succeeded in purchasing two large adjoining houses, which it was their intention to pull down, and on the scite to construct a Market sufficiently spacious for the accommodation of the country, and a commodious Guildhall and offices, in which the judicial business of the Island might be conveniently transacted. Mr Sewall the observed that it was the intention of the Corporation to render the proposed building at the same time ornamental as well as useful to the town, and that the expence would be defrayed in a way that he was sure would merit the warmest and most grateful approbation of every individual in the Island.
Mr. Cull then rose, and in the name of the inhabitants of the town begged leave to congratulate the company on the communication that had just been made; it was by acts of liberality like these, he observed, that corporate bodies endeared themselves to the country; it was by such an appropriation of their revenues that society was benefited by their institution; and whether they considered this act of generosity towards the public in the abstract, the respectable characters by whom it was proposed, the time in which it was done, or the manner in which it had been communicated, he thought the Corporation intitled to the most sincere and cordial thanks of the Island, at large, and of every inhabitant in it. Mr. Cull then gave, "Thanks and Prosperity to the Corporation of Newport," which was drunk in three times three, with the most lively enthusiasm.
Doctor Moore, in a remarkably appropriate and energetic speech, then gave, "Prosperity to the House of Holmes." Many other gentlemen expressed congenial sentiments, and the whole day presented a scene of mutual joy, gratification, and friendship, seldom exhibited. The family, talent, and character of the new Members had long and deservedly rendered them popular in the Island, and an election concentrating more universal approbation could not possibly be witnessed throughout the kingdom. The populace were plentifully regaled without doors, and festivities did not close till the dawn of the succeeding day.
