Such is the startling announcement oc-
casionally sent over the country on the
lightning's wing. A life has been lost
Those who are acquainted with Niagara
need not be told that leap from that tremb-
ling precipice of waters, is certain dcstruc-
ton. The sound of its thunders creeps in
to the ear, and the eye shuts as if looking
down into that seething, restless, remorse-
less depth of troubled foam. We have
stood and looked over that treacherous
edge where the young lady reached for the
flower, and with Shrek, plunged down
upon the sharp rocks beneath, with the
crushed bud in her hand. Death murmurs
hoarsely in every wave that goes madly
by, and yet the fool-hardy still look over
and linger upon the turf whose roots reach
down in vain for bottom.
But a few days since, the news was
photographed I" A man over the falls - He
was intoxicated at the time. Afterwards
his mutilated remains were seen leaping
and whirling in the whirlpool below.

ract whose dark waters sweep by your
own door-whose wave-crests CLEAN with
the foam of death---whose solemn thunders
are made up of the wailings of the bereav.

which hides the seething vortex of certain

there no whirlpools where the wrecks OF
those you love, are circling in the remorse-

Young friend! we call you friend, for
we are friend to you. Are you launched
upon that " limitless" tide which is swifter
and swifter shooting to the Great Cataract.
Hear you no muttering thunders? See
you no wrecks of the young, the brave
and the true, 60 plunging ahead' Are
you attempting to tread that rainbow path
which smiles over the chaos of ruin Do
you ever dream of the treacherous charac-
ter Of that current that sweeps beneath
you. Look Shoreaoard! Mark your
speed! Now to your oars and soul in
the blade! All! my young friend we
write sadly. The Great Cataract is black
with death, and the whirlpool is thick with
wrecks of more value than all the wealth
of Gods Universe. We shout but you
will not hear, and that dull, thrilling boom
ever knells the lost. The waters of that
Cataract gather from every part of the

An Auction Scene.


Strolling through our city we chanced
into an auction room to see what bargains
we could make. The auctioneer was upon
the stand with piece of calico.

"I'll give you ten," says an old lady.
"Going at ten Going gone Yours

don't want an article" said the auctioneer

opposite us.

"Who says they'll take it at thirteen p

"Well, sir, walk up and take it."
"I'm afraid it's stolen goods :" says the
bidder.
The auctioneer now quite mad, sprang
down, and was about collaring the old man,
when person right behind cried
"Don't strike him it was 1 that said
you stole it.''
The auctioneer turned round, when a
big dog, apparently right at his heels,
snuffed and barked most furiously. With
a sudden spring upon his counter, he
ordered the crowd to leave. An acquaint-
ance at our elbow, no longer able to con-
tain himself, burst into loud laugh, as a
genteel little man passed out at the door
whom he told us was ventraoguid.
