RECOVERY OF THE BoDy TIE MEN
LosT AT NIAGARA FALLs.-The body Of Andrew
Hermann, whose sad fate at the Falls excited so
much attention, has been recovered. 1t was found
near the landing of the ''Maid of the MIST be-
low the suspension bridge. The head and body
were much mangled--a sharp stone, or other OBJ
ject, having pierced the body, either in its fearful
descent or afterwards. The facts of the case, as
elected from the evidence of Mr.. Brown resi-
dent at Niagara Falls, arc that three Germans in
his employ were engaged in boating sand to
French's Landing, which used in building at
the Falls. On Monday evening they went to the
Falls, and there got somewhat intoxicated, al
though they usually sustained the reputation of
being sober and industrious laborers. Returning
from the Falls to their boat, they put out into the
river about nine O'Clock in the evening for their
own amusement. Concluding they had not suf1-
cient canvass, they returned to shore, and one of
the three started for the Falls to obtain more the
other two again putting out into the river. On
the return Of the third the boat was nowhere to
be seen, and its fate not known until the next
morning.

SHANNONDALE SPRINGS.

THIS healthy and beautiful Watering Place
i will be under the personal superintendent of
the undersigned during the present summer who
will every effort in his power to render il one
of the most attractive and agreeable watering
places in Virginia. 1t il situated on elevation
or spur Of the majestic Blue Ridge Mountain. in
the county of Jefferson, FIVE miles south of Charles
town, the county seat
Passengers leaving Baltimore or Washington by
the morning train of cars will arrive at Harper's

From the above analysis the waters OF Shannon
dale may very properly be classed among the Sa-
line Chalybeates-a combination of the most vau
able description In the whole range of mineral
waters. II may therefore be positively asserted
without exaggeraton fear OF contradiction, that
no mineral water within the limits of the United
States possesses the same constituent parts, s
more salutary and efficient purgative, than the
water Of Shannondale Springs This water acts
as gently as the midest aperient, without giving
rise to those unpleasant sensations of pain and de
bility so often occasioned by ordinary catharics,
prepared by the most skilful physicians. M
The free use of this water acts almost immedi.
ately upon the skin and kidneys, removes worms,
relieves the convalescent from bilious or other
fevers, dyspepsia, dropsical swellings, calculous
affections, hemorrhodB, scrofula. indigestion, rheu-
matisn, loss Of appetite, exhaustion, general de-
oihty, gravelly concretions, structures, and a
variety of other diseases to which man is subject;

building, 43 Hanover street, his hands slipped
from package which he was handling, and he
fell through the scuttle to the basement, striking
upon some empty boxes, but, wonderful to say,
he was but comparatively little hurt He walked
into the countng-room and, after sitting few
minutes, got up, saying he thought he would not
work any more that day, and went home. Since
then he has attended to his business as usual.

THE FISHERY QUEsmON,-It is stated that Tho
people of the lower provinces have earnestly pet
toned the Home government to withdraw Their
naval force, which has. been sent to the fishing
grounds, to keep the Americans from coming
within three leagues of the shore. If they have
not done it already, we have no doubt such will
be the fact
The truth is, says the Portland State Of Maine
the Provincial government have made grand
mistake, and are now beginning to reap the le-
ultimate consequences of their own doings The
principal value of fish arises from the process Of
curing them. When vessels were allowed to land
and cure their fish shore, it gave employment
to their people at home.
Now the Yankee fishermen lets himself out to
a provincial master, who runs his vessel as soon
loaded into one of our ports pays the duty of
twenty per cent. ad ralorem fresh fish-a merely
nominal sum-and the Bue-nose waits in vain for
his accustomed labor of curing and sailing &C..
&C., which gave employment to so many Of the
people on the Nova Scotia and New Brunswick
shores. This labor is now done in the United
States, and the provincial ports are deserted or
comparatively so, where valuable trade was for
merly enjoyed.
This is a practical view of the question that
may, after all, put the diplomatists of the pro-
vinces on the right track.
