NIAGARA FALLs-THE ROAD TO TERMINATION
PuISI FaLI IN AwAy.-Nc learn from The HGuIll0n
Spectator that constant change, the Law ot nature,
reens too At Niagara. Every year. the outline of the
wOncerful cataract changes as the mighty waters
slowly but surely wear away their channel, carrying
in their embrace now a small fragment then n huge
mass Of rock into the chasL below Years ago,
readers well remember Table Rock yielded Time,
and at successive periods pieces Of il have fallen. On
visit to Tic Falls day or two since, We observed
another change has occurred, nertng At least pass
ing notice Every sight-seer must recollect the path
which, commencing below the brink Of the rayne on
the Canada side, almost opposite Prospect House,
sire to 90 under the sheet If falling water used to
traverse in their waterproof hsbilments.
II led to Termination Point, spot long distance
uuder the cataract caled and the ADVENTURE who
dared air and food to reach IT, blinded by spray, deaf
ened by the terrible which the beating of million
tuns of water on the rocks beow produces, used to
receive certificate of his having accomplished the
yet demand and receive then fees aud the certificates
ore vet given Terminaion Point too, may yet exist.
But no mortal being visit it. Ii never could be
seen from the shore end of the cavernous
turnel-one side rock, the other water, and
tie floor q composition Of both-which led
thither And the path to it is now cut off. The
road along which one used to grope has fallen away.
One still walk about yard under the catarac',
but II Ell the hardest and mot courageous must pause
10 further foobodis AFFORDED aud another step would
lead one to intimate acqns iance with ell the nyS-
teres ~hch it is here forbidden to know. Ere long,
doubtless now that the stratum OF soft rock below has
fallen aud been pounded TO clay, the upper mass will
fall. Aud then another step viii haze been taken IN
the slow aud tedious course in which Niagara has
eaten lis way back from Queensto III, aud is II
geoogists say true to wear itself away somewhere
above Chippewa.
