II Bible was rallied of at coffee house
an Louisville few days ago 1t was put up
at SlO0, and was won by Southern Kentuck-
ian, who threw forty-fOur. Why mott Is it
more immoral and irreligious to raiTle for a
Bible than to raise money to aid the church
by g system of gambling' The latter Is done
every day by all denominations of pro- sssed
christians, and clergy and laity approve. We
suppose they adep. the principle mot a very
sound one, We imagine that q the end justi-
fes the means " Yet these people will turn
up their eyes, with an affectat;on of holy hor-
TOR, at ths. idea of rafting for Bible. Yer
lily, verify, we strain at gDats and swallow
came)s," in this age Of progress; in which
fashionable religion is as progressive as every
thing else, in all things save genuine piety
This is simply regarded cold fogyism. -

EVENING STAR.

NIAGARA FALLS must have presented a
grand sight Sunday, during the gale,-vhen,
at Clifton, Suspension BrldgeO trees were
torn up, small tenements, shanties and out
buildings overturned, and their fragments
strewed over the field in every direction. The
volume of water driven over she Falls of Mia
era was truly appalling, carrying with il drift
wood, logs and timters from the deigned
vharves and shores above. The Suspension
Bridge was considered in great danger The
toll gates were for time deserted, and many
ancient eye tremblingly awaited the destruo-
ton OF tais magnificent structure. But the hur-
ricaue in all its terrible fury swept by, leav-
ing the edifoe unscathed.
The water below tho Falls raised over thir.
ty feet, entirely covering the piers of the steam
boat landing, and the landing room at the
foot OF the staircase on the American side
The most remarkable event was the over
throw Of the old PagOda, which stood OF the
highest point Of the battle ground, at Lundy' s
Lane. The intense rocking started the in
mates from the wooden tenement at the base,
and scarcely had they n sde good their escape,
when with tremendous crash, the entire tow
er, OF nearly two hundred feet, measured its
Tenth upon the frozen ground, scattering its
upper portion tato thousand fragments; for
tsnateiy no lives were lost, as it fell to the
Westward, in the open fields. Had it fallen in
any other direction, it mus. have crushed in
several. dwellings.
