THE gentleman who has been trying
the exl erlment OF sounding the river
Niagara below the Falls, ties a. fol-
oss: Another attempt was made with
similar iron OF about pounds weight,
attached TO No. wire, all freely sus.
pended, so as not TO impede the fall Of
the weight. then let the weight fall
from the bridge, at the height Of 225
feet. 1t struck the surface fairly, with
the point down, must have sunk TO some
depth, but was not longer ont OF sight
than one second, when it made its APP
pearance again on the surface, about
one hundred feet down the stream, and
skipped along like chip until it was
checked by the wire. We then com
menced hauling in slowly, which made
the iron bounce ike ball, when q cake
of ice struck ii and ended the sport. ]
am satisfied that no metal has sufficient
specific gravity TO pierce thst current,
even with momentum Of o25 feet
The velocity ofthe iron when striking,
must have been equal 10 l24 feet per
second, and con tqnen,ly it's momentum
sas nearly 5000 pounds. Its surface
opposed to the current WAS about so
superficial inches. This will give an idea
Of the strength Of that current. and a,
the fame time hint ut the Titan forces
that have been at work TO scoop out the
bed of the Niagara river.

MADAME ANNA BIsHoP.-From the
number of seats selected yesterday, we
calculate that a large and fashionable
audience will greet Madame Bishop this
evening. 1t is not often our citizens
have an opportunity to hear singer Of
the reputation of the songstress, who ia
vors them with some OF her best selec-
tons of music tonight, and it is not
strange that many are unwilling to let
the opportunity go unimproved. AS the
concert is for one night only, unless the
weather is very propitious, we look to see
Masonic Hall crowded to its utmost ca
pacity Further, we anticipate for the
audience treat they have not enjoyed
for long time. We suggest to our
friends that they had better secure their
tickets and seats early in the day. if
postponed till night, they may be too
late.

Their old boat will be used exclusively
for theb boats of the two packet compa-
MES above named, under the immediate
superintendent of Capt James 7. Cox,
assisted by Mr. Walker, an attentive and
accurate book-keeper and an obliging
gentleman.
The boat just purchased will be pre-
sided over by our cherished friend and

Humphrey, assisted by Mr.. Pat Cleary
gentleman very extensively and most
favorably known by shippers and steam
