The Boston Courier gives the annexed
instance of the fact that "riches take wings
and fly away" The truth of this axiom
was fully exemplified yesterday by the sight
and perusal oil private schedule of Rail
road Stocks and Bonds belonging to an in
div. dual. and valued eighteen months ago
at little over 1914 eco. the market value
of which to-day is only shout $4,000,
showing depreciation of 1894 600 in one
year and q half, beside the loss of interest.
These securities were pledged as collateral
security for borrowed money, and as they
declined in value other property was pla-
ced with them to keep the margin good un-
til the unfortunate borrower could respond
no further, and was finally obliged to fail

Extraordinary Rise ana Fall Of Water.

The Like Superior Journ1l mentions an
extraordinary rise and fall of water in the
Ship Canal a fe W days since, varying from
about ten TO fourteen feet. The water
above the rapids did not vary in depth. and
the fuc,uation below was probably caused
by the wind. Tbs Journal add.
In the summer Of 1887 an extraordinary
rerocession Of waters took place at the
rapids. The phenomenon took place about
NOON The day was clear but cloudy. -
The wster retired suddenly, leaving the bed
OF the river bare, except for the distance Of
twenty rods where the channel is deepest,
and remained SO for the space Of about an
hour. A number Of persons went out and
csugh, fish in the pools formed by the de-
preston In the rocks. The return IN the
water wss sudden and presented an impo-
sing spectacle. They came down like an
immense surge. and those who had incau-
tious,y wandered into the river bed bad bare
" time 10 escape being o, erwbelmed.-
One of the number had taken surge on
and determined 10 save his prize, but the
burdea caused him to move much slower
thsn the rest, and he was Obliged TO throw
the fish away, and cilngto one Of the bould-
ers in order to escape being carried of into
the river below. He stayed there until the
winter resumed its usual aspect, when he
was taken offina canoe.
The rapids presented nearly The same ap-
pearance on the 18Th, with the exception,
perhaos, thai they were not quite as dry a-
Represented in tie above account. The
bed of the river was nearly dry between the
islands and the canal, the huge bnulders
which had been so long concealed showing
their watsr-~ofn shapes plainly to view -
The difference between the highest aud
lowest stage Of water in the cenal wns
three fer' five inches,

whers.hout, at SCHUYLER

The New York Atlas is informed by a
friend in London that MIR. Robert Schuyler
was in that city in the latter part OF May,
and dined with several New Workers at
Ling's Hotel He did not, our friend as
sures US, manifest any apprehensions OF ar
rest under the extraordinary provisions OF
the Ashburton treaiy--far from it. He
was well at ease, and contemplated an ear
Nv return to the United States, confident in
the belief that he could satisfy the world
of the integrity ofhis conduct. Mr.. Schny-
Ter has not, since he left this country, cross
ed the channel, or visited any part Of En-
rode. When he left New York he proceed
ed to Qnebec, where he took an English
steamer for Liverpool |. seems TINT his
abandonment of his native land had been
anticipated, and that his passage had been
engaged several days before his departure.
He reached Quebec only two hours in adj
vance Of the departure of the steamer. He
went under an assumed name, but did no'
disguise his person.

TIFF REMOVAL QuEsTIos.-By the recent
decision Of the Supreme Court, which we
shall publish as soon as practicable, it seems
to be settled that the appointment, by tie
Governor, of Commissioners TO locate the
seat of Government, under the Removal

all acts of tire Commissioners under that
appointment equally null and Intellectual. -
We also believe that the decision invali-
dates the act OF the Legislature, authorizing
the Governor to publish such laws Of gem

proceedings il another column, have been
going on with business since Gov. Reeder
was removed the same as before. Why not!
They did not regard him while be was in Of

whatever they do--and SO doubtless will the
President We learn by telegraph hat Mr.
Dawson will not accept the appointment
which has been rendered to him; SO that
some time must elapse before Governor
can arrive in Kansas, and meantime Messrs.
Atchison. Stringfellow & Co. can go on and
complete the Kansas Nebraska scheme in
accordance with the original programme.
We doubt, indeed, whether the President
will be able TO find any man of decent rep
station who will be willing TO accept tie
