NIAGARA FALLS ECLIPsED-From a
credible exchange We cut the following
description Of waterfall, hitherto un-
known to the tourists, and distinguished
for its wonderful sublimity over that Of
Niagara. 1t has been discovered in the
valley of the Snake Fork of the Columbia
river. ltsays: "Ths excelsior fall, over
which pours the entire volume Of Snake
river, is sheer PreciPice one buDdred and
nibe'y-eight feet higher than the precipice
of Niagara. Snake river is said to be
fully as large as Niagara, and it takes the
stupendous fall at one solid leap. A
scouting detachmspt Of United States
troops are accredited with the discovery.
The continuous roaring of this fall, it is
ingenuOusly remarked, has for many years
attracted attention, without anything def
mite having been learned concerning it,
more than if it had been as distant as the fall
IF Adam, or cataract in the moon. For
ward, enthusiastic tourists, and au,henti-
cally post the world up regarding this,
the greatest of all the natural wonders it
has ever fallen heir to-

Remarkable Prediction Of Douglas

Hon. Isaac n. Arnold Of Illinois, in bis
recent speech in the House of Hefreseuta-
tives. made the following Interesting state
ment:
Here l will pause a moment to state
a most remarkable prediction made by
Douglas in January, 1861. The state.
ment is furnished to me by Gen. G. Il.
Stewart CT New York, gentleman Of The
highest Responsibility.
"Douglas was asked By Gen Stewart,
(who was making a New Years call on
Mr.. Douglas,( What will be the result
Of the etfJrrs Of Jefferson Davis and bis
associates to divide the Uniou?' Doug
las replied The cotton States are ma
king an effort to draw iu the border
States to their schemes of secession, and
| am too fearful they viii succeed. If
they do succeed, there will be the NEST ter
rible civil war the world has ever seen,
lasting for years. Virginia will become
a cbarnel house but the end will be the
triumph of the Union cause. Que Of
their first efforts will be to take possession
of this capital to give them prestige abroad,
but they will never succeed IL taking it;
but it will become a city of hospitals !;
the churches will be used for the sick and
wounded, and even the Minnesota block
(now the Eong!as HopitaD may be devo-
ted to tba. purpose before the end of the
war Gen. Stewart inquired, 'What JUS
tica.ion is there for all this? Douglas
replied, There is no Justification Dor any
pretence of any. IL they will remain in
the Union | will 90 as far as the Consti-
tuition will permit to maintain their jist
rights, and | DO not doubt but mej GRITTY
of Congress will do the same. But said
be, rising on his feet and extending his
arul, 'lf the Southern States attempt to
secede from this Union without further
cause, ain in favor of their having jlst
SO many slaves and just so much slave ter
ri,ory as they can hold st the poin. Of the
bayonet, and no more"

We regret to learn that disease of O
very serious aud fatal nature has been
prevailing in Rush township, this county,
tor several weeks past. 1t begins with a
rash, and terminates fatally by affecting
the spine and back part of the brain.
We understand that number of persons,
adults and children, have been taken with
it, and in every case it has proved fatal.
The Doctors appear to be unacquaiDted
with the character Of the disease. Hugh

1t is questionable whether there is an
instance in the history of the composition
of our army to match the following which
we find 10 the Portland Advertiser: A
widow in Union, Maine, who has twelve
children, eleven Of them boys, has just
sent the eleventh son into the army. Oa
the occasion of his enlis;iDg some officers
aud friends made up purse of 5000 and
presented it to this patriotic matron, who
said she was sorry her other child was
not boy, SO that she might make still
smother Offering to her country.

DEsULATIUN IN THE SoUTH.-Gener-
al Neal Dow, who has travelled extern
sively in the South, says that everywhere
he was he behe the dcsoIaiions of war
but when be crossed the Potomac and
came into the free States he could see
nothing that reminded bin of war. He
says "you know nothing of var, you feel
nothing of war, except those OF you who
have oti,rcd up loved oues for the honor
and safety Of the country" The resources
of the Rebel Government, be says, are
exhausted The leading men of:he South,
he says, "unril within lew months, con.
tidenIly believed III the success OF their
undertaking. Now they begin to real:e
the tremendous powers of the North IN lts
naval resources, IN men, money, aud all
the appliances Of war, and everywhere
they despair of success" General Dow
confirms the previous reports of the bar
barous treatment of our prisoners in the
Rebel prisons, aud be relterates the state
ment tina. the Rebels had mined The Libby
prison upon approach of Gen. Fitzpatrick,
with The Intention Of blowing it up, and
all the Union prisoners in it. He states
that "on the morning of wednesday, +,
March >, after We had heen informed of
the guupowder plot. Dick Turner, the ms
pector of Military Prisons, was asked by
many ofiiters, a; different times, il We were
correctly Informed, and be assured them
i, was true that large quantity Of pow
der had been put under the prison toblow
MS up if Fitzpatrick Lai come in, aud that
it would be yet done if attempts were
made to rescue US"

FATAL ACCIDENT-Last Friday, at
the Lewisburg depot, a man by the name
CT Joseph Downs, who was standing ou
the track watching the shifting Of cars,
unconsciously got in the rear of locomo-
tive and tender, which we're in the act Of
backing, and, not needing the signal, was
knocked down, and the tender passed over
him, crushing him SO terribly that be died
fifteen minutes afterwards. The K. K.

interment. Mr. Downs had served as
substitute in the army, but had been
discharged on account of feebleness of
intellect. He was apparently homeless,

Coal OTL.-Among other good uses
of coal oil, We see that it is said to be
useful, when mixed with sawdust, ashes,
DC, and put around fruit trees as guard
against curculio. 1t is pretty hard dose
for anybody, aud We suppose the settings
OF the oil Git any and the water lamps
are washed in, might afford something
strong enough to damage rascals like
curculios. Might try it auyhov
