AWFUL CATASTROPHE-FIvE PERSONS OVER
THE FALLS-F0UR WOMEN AND A BOY DROWN
ED.
One Of the most awful caamties which ever beie our
community was experienced on Saturday last. A boat
containing five persons-four women and one boy-was
drawn Niagara Falls. and its helpless occupants TO
death as speedy "a it was inevitable.
After little family gathering Of females at the house
Of j. j. b. Pmeau which stands the foot of Prospect
Hill aud the bank of the river they all prepared
to the Watertown side in boat Those who
entered the boat-an unwieldy fat-botom-were Mrs j.
J. b. Primeau with her little boy four years of age Mr.
J. j. N. Prmeau aud her mother, Mrs. Beausole, and
Mics Louisa Bibaud. The setting towards the
dam and falls is quite percepbe where the boat left the
shore but yet not strong not to be readily breasted
with pair Of oars.
The precise why the boat in the present instance
was given TO the mercy of the current merely surme
but so 1t was As the boat approached the DAM the
men made rush TO the stern Of the boat which pressed
it so low down in the water that it passing over
It was caught on the brow Of the dam and held fast
there One Of the unfortunaes sprang from the boat
thus ghtened il veered round the current struck it
squarely on the side, upsettng it entirely it passed
over the dam, and the poor thrown into the
crushing rapids. 1t is not but breath from the dam 10
the falls for second one of the woman was seen TO
grasp rock and the little boy observed still cling
ing to the boat but those the last struggles
fe One after the other they plunged the abyss
and into the boiling whirlpool below from which escape
is an impossible from the grave Itself Mrs Joseph
j. H. Primeau bride but three short weeks before.
Her age was scarcely seventeen years.

AEFATR OF HoSoR.-A day or two since two gentle
men from the South had an alteration, and one of
them, conceving his honor wounded, wrote a challenge
demanding meeting outside the District limits where
the affair might be settled. The police got wind of
the affair and arrested both parties Of whom
held by Justice Dom in the sum of $1,000 to keep the
peace the other released on his own recognizance
70 keep the peace= Wnshinnton Stntea

He Splits Upon IL.

Republican member of Congress from Ohio thus spurns
the nomination rendered him by the Republicans. He
goes for Bell and Everett:
HAMILTON, July 10, 1860.
TO the Editors Of the Hamilton Hpfe!tigencer:
SIRs In your last issue you mention the fact that
have been named as a candidate for the Republican
nomination for Representative in Congress. 1t is pro-
per- therefore, TO say that acknowledging my profound
gratitude to the people Of this district for their past
support have not the least desire again to enter the
field of strife and subject myself repetition of the
calumnious assaults heretofore make upon me. Besides
is due to candor TO add that according TO the new
tests Of Repubcansm adopted by the Chicago Conven-
ton, regard myself resolved out of that party
could not accept such nomination without expressing
my unqualified condemnation Of the proposition which
pledges support to the system which prevails in several
States allowing TO unnatural zed foreigners the right of
voting a residence Of six months! This plark ia in
conflict with much that have said, and much more
that have thought and still believe the subject It
proposes substantially obliterate all the wholesome
safeguards to the purity Of the American ballot box and
therefore, to familiar and significant expression,
81 spit upon it." LEWIS D. CAMPBELL.
