AN ASTONISHING PRoGRAMME.-The
Buffalo Republic says that one Monsieur
Blondin proposes to make an ascension on
a tight rope from the Canada shore to Q
point on the American side directly over
the Niagara Falls, by stretching rope
from the Canada side to mast on this
side. The ascension is to be made at night
amid fireworks. The same paper says
that he proposes to make, during this sum-
mer, several ascensions; in one Of which il
is his intention to go over in sack, with
nothing but his arms snd feet exposed
He also proposes to wheel some gentleman
in a wheslbarrow, provided he can find
some distinguished individual with nerve
enough, who would like the enjoyment of
trip across the frightful chasm OH tight
rope in one wheel carriage; and TO make
it still more interesting and frightfully ter
rife, he will carry q man on his back and
wheel another at the same time, provided
two generous persons can be found who
like TO indulge in that kind of sport.

MORE ABOUT WOOL.

EDITOR HERALD.-SIR-NoticiDg two
paragraphs in your columns on the sub
ject of the Wool Of the coming clip, /
have thought proper to say word on the
matter in reply as the season is near ap-
preaching for the opinion of growers as 8
reasonable basis, for their mutual interest
ond that of the manufacturers, which
ought to be reciprocal, as neither should be
enormously led into ruinous exchange of
one of the most important articles OF ag-
riculture of the State of Ohio. Therefore
it becomes both parties to be equally rea-
sonable in their statistics, as to price. II
the manufacturers can sustain themselves
at from ten to twenty cents over last years
prices, it would seem TO be very healthy
state of things for both parties; but is that
SO, Mr.. Fact? There is strong feeling
among country merchants to haDdle the
woods in their vicinity, and consequently q
strong competition is the result and if they
take Mr.. Facts schedule as o basis Of pur
chases, cannot see where they are to re-
alize safe margin for expenses as he
makes bis figures, for late sales in market
for last years clip held over on interest,
insurance and commissions, de-, Of which
those sales had their natural causes. If
manufactured goods was the cause, all
right. If operations have increased and
crested q demand. the growers ought To be
satisfied TO have them sustained, Is Q COM

Steam on the Ohio Canals.

Capt. VIM. Deuel., of Franklin Mills,
Portage county, is testing the experiment
of employing steam propulsions upon our
canals. He has built steam canal boat
at Peninsula this season called the Enter
prise, and has made some trial trips. His
craft is at Akron, and the Beacon thus
speaks of it:
The Enterprise is propelled by steam
Engine in the stern Of the boat, very much
after the fashion of Lake Propellsrs, except
that there are two propeller wheels at the
stern. Capt. Deuel's aim has been to use
Steam Engine of moderate weight, and
the running Of loaded boat BY which shall
be economical as compared with towing by
horses; retaining the capacity and burthen
of the boat for freights. He has not ex-
pected TO get any greater speed per hour
than that Of boat under tow BY good
team, say two or three miles per hour.
In these particulars be believes he has
succeeded. The engine has power enough
with the boiler and fixtures weighs about
s,7oo pounds, and occupies but small
space at the stern, leaving the entire mid
ships clear for the stowage of freight, for
which her stowage capacity is abont $50
barrels. The boat thus far has not been
freightsd, but runs at fair rate Of speed,
is easily steered and managed in locking,
and her machinery works we'll, fully meet
ing all reasonable expectations.
This underfakina is ana vb;ch sbould
engage the attention of all who are inter-
esied in the business Of Canal transporta-
ton. Forwarders, fteighters, and Others,
should examine the Enterprise" and give
her the encouragement which it deserves,
since il is probably the beginning Of great
change and advancement in the business of
Canal transportation. The board Of Pub
lie Works, we know, are looking to this re-
suit not without reasonable expectation
that captain peusls undertaking viii be
successful.

New York Horrors.

The mystery of the box with seven bod
les is explained to have been bodies exhu-
med from Potter's field, by the authorities
and which were being taken for interment
to another spot and fell from the boat.
Another horror has been explained. The
body of a young married woman, Mrs. Hal
sey, was found drowned. She was an act
ress and better known as Miss Deane.-
She was elegantly dressed, having all her
rings and ornaments on when found. She
was only eighteen years of age. Her hus-
band is an Englishman and detected her in
writing note to Mr.. Wells appointing an
assignation. She confessed all, handed
over all her letters, by which it appeared
that Thompson's in Broadway was the usu-
al rendezvous.
Mr.. Halsey is the son of wealthy Bri-
tisb officer, but is dissipated and has treat
ed his family with great neglect. On dis
covery of her faithlessness he played the
Sickles farce by forcing bis wife to write a
full confession. She then went, ostensibly,
to buy shoes and was seen no more alive.
1t appears she was very expensive
mistress to Mr.. Wells but did not explain
what she did with the money, but point
in the case as found in the Tribune may
explain this feature.
1t is represented that Mr.. Halsey pos
sessed great influence over the general con-
duct of his wife, and is believed that as be
was very much in want of funds with which
to supply the gambling table, be induced
her to cultivate an acquaintance with Mr..
Wells, with a view to securing money. It
appears that, independent of any such ae-
quaintance, Mr.. Wells has always been a
friend of the family of Mr.. Deane, and has
known Fanny from early childhood. A
gentleman living in the house says Halsey
has deprived her of every decent garment
she had, also her gold watch, and pawned
them to supply the needful to perpetuate
his work of dissipation and gambling.
Mrs. Deane, the mother of Mrs. Halsey,
represents Halsey as an inyeterate gambler,
even pawning his wifs's clothing, jevelry
&c-, to obtain funds with which to crafty
his passions for gaming. Mrs. D. declares
that if her daughter went astray, neglect
and abuse at home led to it. 1t seems be
first saw Mss Deane at WaIlack's theater,
was captivated, sought her acquaintance
and after weeks courtship they were mar
ried in the wise. He one day, when walk
ing, asked her to 60 to the church of the
Ascension TO witness q marriage, and on
reaching the church persuaded her then to
marry him, and Rev. DR.. Bedsll performed
the cerimony. Halsey then gave a fcti-
tious name. When the mother found this
out she insisted upon another bridal cere-
mony being performed in his true name, |
which was done.

AN ABoIrrIosIsT TARRED AND FEArH-
ERED.-The Savannah Republican says;
"Philip McNully, travelling agent for q
patent bedstead, hsiling from Ohio. was
detected last week IN an attempt to decoy
certain slaves of Covington to . free State.
The citizens of that place rid themsslve Of
the scamp by shearing his locks, applying
o thick coat of pritsr's ink TO his person,
and then riding him on raid 10 the depot,
where be was allowed TO depart. Served
him exactly night, onl, good cowhidiug
might justly have besn sdded."

Wool.

We noticed In your columns of Thurs
day evening an article with the above
heading, purporting to be addressed to
farmers, and signed "One whose interests
are identified with yours" The writer of
that article has spent much ink to give his
views of the price of the incoming clip,
which he finally concludes will be from
three to five cents pound higher than the
woods were bout a lart year. Like many
other farmers (whess interests the writer
is evidently desirous to consult) he seems
not fully posted up in the present prices of
Wool. Presuming that he, or you, would
not be desirous of throwing out false views
at this season Of the year, l will state that
last season woods were boughtin this State
at an average price of IS cents, ranging
from % to As. January and February
sales ranged from As to 6s cents. know
of no change in the price of wool since
that time. 1t is well known thai the lofts
are very bare of domestic fleece wool,
throughout the East. Manufacturers, too,
have unusually small stocks for this sea-
so of the year. Every farmer is aware
that there is none through the wool-grow-
ing districts of the West. No manufac-
turer would pretend to deny these facts, or
that the past eight months have not been
characterized with unusual prosperity and
active demand for manufactured goods.
Why then should your correspondent con-
clude take to cents more for his Wool
than he got last year, which would be from
80 to SO centsa On the contrary, why
should not Woods be quoted at what they
would be worth if in the warehouses, in
stead of being scattered through the couu-
try on the sleeps back, as at present?-
The prices of to-day may be set down as
fellows:
