undertook 70 ford the rapids above Niagara
Falls on pair Of iron stills. When halt way
across one Of the stills broke and lett him at
the mercy Of the current. He succeeded, now
ever. IN getting on small island, near the
American Fail, where at latest accounts he
still remained, IN full view Of Of large crowd
on shore Who we're unable to help him. He
seems to have injured foot, and the lmpres-
sion is that he is waiting for the pain to sub
side before attempting to extrcate hlmseH
from his unpleasant position. lie IS clad IN
tights, is bareheaded, wet, bruised, and no
doubt very hungry. There seems to be no
certainty of affording him assistance, and 1t is
thought that he must remain where be Is ana
die, suffering all the horrors OF starvation
The Northern papers contain extracts from
the Richmond papers, giving accounts OF the

Virginia, exceeding any thing ever before read
of. since the war commenced For the honor
or Of human nature it is to be hoped, that
these accounts will be modified. The state
ments relate to outrages upon the most respec-
table white ladies by negro soldiers, burning
Staying, and plundering It makes the blood
curdle almost, to read the statements.
The National Intelligencer, commenting up
on the recent Protest of Messrs. Wade and II.
Winter Davis remarks as follows These
gentlemen truly say that the proclamation on
which they anirnadyert is neither an appro-
val nor veto Of the bill; it is therefore docu
cument unknown to the laws and Constitution OF
the United States. This is sound doctrine,
but Messrs. Wade and Davis have been some
what late in propounding it to the people, for
the proclamation IN question IS not the first
which the President has made on principles
unknown to the laws and Constitution Of the
United States. :
