Accident at Gennessee Falls.

A serious accident took place at the great
Genessee Fall in this city, yesterday alter
noon. A couple OF boys aged about fifteen
years, went to Falls Field about p. M. and.
like many others, repaired to the Pagoda to
look at the Fall, where it could be done with
perfect safety. Falls Field, The River bank.
in fact, the streets of the city, were so gla-
zed over by frozen rains as to render it dan
gerous to travel, even upon level ground. At
the east side of the Falls, near the stone
mill, the sloping bark is often covered with
frozen spray and is very slippery. "a.
1t appeared that the boys went down the
slope, towards the mill, perhaps to see how
lar they might venture; one of them. name
Geo. Shael, ventured too far, slipped upon
the crust, in an instant peat oueT the great
precipice, falling ooer one Hundred feet, to the
verge of the water boiling up from the eddy
under the Great Fall. All who heard the
alarm concluded at once that the lad was
dead, but he was so far from being dead that
his cries attracted the attention of skaters
on the river, some forty rods distant, and
they went to his relief He was found
standing partly upright in the snow, about
six feet from the edge Of the water. One of
his legs was badly shattered and some of
his ribs were broken.
The precise extent Of his injuries could
not be at once ascertained. He fell feet
foremost and was terribly Jared. Rochester

Minnesota Hotels.

The territorial press seems, of late, to be
contensed into one battering ram tor the ex-
press purpose Of opening an annihilatng cam
nonade upon the "vllainous mail arrange
ments" and execrable hotels" upon which
the readers and travellers of Minnesota are
dependent. The structures upon NJ. O. Wal
ker we believe to be richly deserved, and
hope they may be continued until he is re-
moved or converted. But so far as the ho-
tells are concerned it is simply waste of pow
der. Americans always did, and always will
make the greatest amount of money in the
shortest space of time and the least invest
ment of capital possible, and we have no
reason to expect that landlords will prove
an exception to the rule. That the places of
entertainment open for the accommodation
Of the travelling p ,blc do not and cannot
compare with eastern hotels, is to be expec-
ted. We might as well expect that the ele
gancies and comforts of eastern homes
should attach themselves to our private res
licences as to our hotels Those who are
unwilling to undergo the inconveniences of
frontier life, should have remained by the
patcrnal hearth. If our cotemporaries will
exercise little patience, we promise them
that TINT the " course of human events" will
sweep away the ennis .nces," and present
IN their stead princcly hotels, capable of af-
furding them the most approved delicacies
OF upper life.-Rice County Herald.

Deputy SHERIFF.-Compying with ur-
gent requests from many prominent citizens
of Minneapolis and vicinity, Mr.. Sheriff Lip
pincott has appointed as his deputy, Wins
low L. Perkins. Though quite young, Mr.
Perkins, we think, will make an excellent
officer; for he possesses an unusual degree of
energy, activity, and ability. His bond to
Mr.. Lippincott is probably secured as we'll
as, if not better, than the bond of any other
officer in the County; his sureties being
worth, in the aggregate nearly S200,OOO;-
thus furnishing a strong testimonial Of the
confidence reposed in the new Deputy.
A SPECIAL SESSION of the Board of Com
missioners of Hennepin Co., will be held next
week, commencing on Tuesday afternoon.-
The Board was in session all of last week,
and the affairs of the County are so badly
tangled up in some respects that if they get
them Strengthened out next week, so as to be
able to give the required annual statement, it
will be much to their credit.

raj miles above and below there is a wide
strip of bottom land, skirted with good tim
Der. This bottom land is about two miles
wide at the point where Lexington is loca-
ted; and the soil in the vicinity is spoken of
as of good quality. The proprietoIs have al
ready contracted with Mr.. Tiff, who lives on
the premises, to put up saw-mill by the lst

arc to be applied to the publication of Re-

to contain between 100 and 200 pages, and
will be published under the supervision of

among our physicians men of high scientific
attainments; and if prepared under their
supervision, work of real merit may be
expected.
