At Baltimore, on Thursday afternoon, Herr Rynninger accomplished the feat of walking on a single wire from the roof of the Powhatan House, out of Broadway, to the European House, on Thames street, below Broadway. The wire was about the thickness of those used on the telegraphic line, and extended about four hundred feet, commencing at a height of forty feet, and gradually descending to the ground. This wonderful feat was performed with the greatest ease and facility, and apparently with as much confidence on the part of the performer as if he were walking on the ground.
