THILLlNG SCENE AT THE FALLS OF
N1AGARA-Re Remarkable escape from death.
Mr.. E. V. Wilson, of this city, of
lightning rod nototiety, went to the Falls
with party, and among the number was
MRS. N. l.. Piper. The lady at the time
was laboring slightly under a species of
insanity. 1t was thought by her hns-
band that travelling and change Of air
and scenery would do her good, bat un-
fortunately such was not The case. I'm
mediately upon her arrival, she was We
ry DESTROYS TO see the Falls, and while
standing apon the Canada side, at about
twenty feet from the falling sheet Of wa
ter, she slipped her arm from Mr.. Will
son, and made rush towards the preci-
pice. He rushed after her, and Just as
she was going over, he caught hold of
her dress, and by if held ler dangling in,
the air. The dress gave way, aud she
fell on the ledge of rock at distance
of twenty fee.. As she thus lay, Will
son, our narrative says, "with great pre-
sence of mind looked for soft place.
and discovering that quantity of loose
earth was lying on the rocks he imne-
diately jumped down on it. He was Just
in time to save her from going over the

Lancaster, Sept. 26, 1858.

TIn speaking of the resolutions pas.
sed by the late State Democratic Con
vention at Madison, the Monroe Sentinel
leading Democratic journal, properly
says:
We had hoped to see some resolution
in relation to our heavy taxes, and, at
least, some allusion to the great Demo
cratic principle of retrenchment and E.
economy in our State expenditures. We
believe some can, and ought to be made,
let who will be in office. 1t is true that
the Legislature has the blame of all ex-
travagant expenditures of the public mo-
ney, and perhaps justly, to certain ex-
tent.
1t is fact, to which we ought not to
shut our eyes, that the electors Of Wis
consin feel that the burden of their tax
es has become too heavy to be borne, and
they will be very likely to speak Of their
grievances at the ballot-box. A faith
full and strict adherence to the best in
terest of the people, by their public SER
wants, is expected; and all the conven-
tons that can meet between milwaukee,
and St. Croix, and between July and No
vember, with resolutions stretching from
Dan to Rersheba, will not divert the at
tenlion of the people from an extrava-
giant use of the public funds, or the
weight and oppression of enormous tax

CANDIDATE FOR STATE SupERINpENT.-
The Kerosha Telegraph, leading Free Dem
ocratic paper of Wisconsin, says of the Wing
nominee for Superintendent
''Mr. McMYNN, we honestly believe is not
only the best man in the state for this place
but as good as can be found any where. What
Horace Mann has done for Massachusetts,, Me
Mynn is capable of doing for this state, and
would do it, if the duty were imposed ON him.
He understands al about schools theoretically
and practically. He would give dignity and
efficiency to the system, and work out such
fruits as the energy of our vigorous state re-
qnires and our ample fund justifes."
Judge H. A. WRIGHT, of Crawford County
is the Democratic nominee for the same office.
He is an excellent man, good citizen and well
qualified for most any station of lega or bu-
siness character I; but for the office of Super
incident he cannot be so well qualif ed, since
teaching and the matter of education have not
occupied his attention. That has not been his
trade as with Mr.. McMyNN. every man TO
his trade,'' as the almanacs used to say.

Arthur's Home Magazine.

The cheapest and the best yet offered |
Eighty pages per month Of choice reading
matter for 81 a year, or in clubs OF four at
only 81 % per annum.
The "home magazine" was commenced
October 1882: the editor is T. s. Arthur,
in Whose hands is the entire editorial charge
Of the work. A new novelette, from his
pen was commenced in the first number,
entitled "the old mans BRIDE"
This story is continued through the first
four numbers Of the magazine, from Octo.
Der to January. With the February num-
Der another new story by Mr.. Arthur, enti-
tied ''sparing TO spend or, the lotions and
the pinkertons," will be commenced, to be
continued during several months. Thus,
in the first volume Of the home magazine,
two nouvellettes by the editor will be pub
lished. AS only limited edition of the
first numbers Of the magazine was printed
those wishing "the old mans bride" must
send in their subscriptions early.
DPl order to prevent Misrepresentation
oil the part Of the public, we will here state
that the home magazine is a monthly issue
of the home gazette, and contains the best
articles that appear therein, thus fixing in
permanent shape and for circulation in new
channels, literary matter from the pens Of
many of the ablest writers in the country.
1t is from this cause that the publishers are
able, in the Outset, to furnish the work at SO
low a rate.
