in any direction (not exactly in the teeth of a gale) as no longer
problematical. We could not have made head against the strong wind

influence, if requisite. Against a pretty stiff breeze, I feel
convinced,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], we can make our way with the propeller. At noon, to-day,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],
ascended to an elevation of nearly 25,000 feet, by discharging
ballast. Did this to search for a more direct current, but found
none so favorable as the one we are now in. We have an abundance of
gas to take us across this small pond, even should the voyage last
three weeks. I have not the slightest fear for the result. The
difficulty has been strangely exaggerated and misapprehended. I can
choose my current, and should I find _all_ currents against me, I can
make very tolerable headway with the propeller. We have had no
incidents worth recording. The night promises fair.
