AN lea Jkx At THs FALts.--The Niagara
Falls Gorefft has the following 10 relation to
an exciting scene which took place there few
days since:
A change from the prevailing eas,ehy
wiud to the opposite quarter brought down
immense quantities Of ice from the lake last
Wednesday, night. For the first time, we
believe, 10 the recollection Of the "odest 10.
hablant," the ice formed complete dam
across the rapids between the bridge aud
the upper end Of Goat Island With the
exception Of few rods ia width near the

weeks. While enjoying a walk which we
Of this generation may never again hear Of
being doUe, the ice dun gave away aud the
vast volume OF water, probably IRON five
TO ten feet deep, came rushing through. -
The dam soon disappeared, aud the bost
that had remained fixed against the ordiua
ry torrent, was swept away and over the
Cataract. OF course there was hufrying
toward The island shore and paper-nill pier.
Some escaped wish little wetting and o
big scare, while others barely escaped with
their lives. young man nomed Barlow
was obliged TO leap from one to another OF
the e Iatiug cakes Of ice, and fully appreci.
uling the necessity of making laud before
being carried TOO near the Cataract, lost no
time in leaping from he last cake andewim-
ming several rods to shore, Those who wit
messed the scene described it as exceedingly
exciting. It all occurred at an early hour
in the morning, aud hence was seen by but
few of our citizens.
