the following:
Last evening Mr.. Thomas Hsnlou was
announced to spPesr in the sensation act
entitled 1.-THE Leap for Life" After per-
forming a variety Of most graceful and
daring performances upon the apparatus
entitled L'Echelle, he prepared 70 jump q
distance Of ten feet and seize a cable, the
lower end of which was brought directly
under him by assistants. Standing upon
slender bar Of iron, he esssyed the leap !;
but 10 the horror of those present, he
missed the rope, fell g distance of twenty
six feet, struck the stage, and rebounded
into the orchestra, an apparently ifeless
mass. Making our way on to the stage,
We found him stretched upon stage sofa
surrounded by his sorrowing brothers,
whilst DR.. Mussey carefully washed his
wounds, which proved to be simply flesh
cut, two and 5 half inches long, and 8
slight cut on the lower jaw. His left wrist
was considerably sprAined, and one finger
slightly swollen.
The Brothers have brought themselves,
by strict regimen, temperance and exer-
else to such high state OF physical heslth,
tnst they quickly recover from the few &C
cidents that befall them.
DIR. Mussey informed US late last night
that Mr.. Hsnlon was IS comfortable as
could be expected, but he could not say
whether or not he hsd received internal
injuries Of q serious character.

All soldiers now in the fsld, with the

waiting for muster out at the places oil

this enormous army have failed to receive
their pay with reasonable promptness- One
of these is q New York regiment. The
oDlv reason of their failure to receive pay
is found in the neglect of the officer prop

The Tariff Association of this city have
Issued a circular statement Of their Prin-
ciples and objects, from which we make
the following extract
Our people have just emerged from an
immense war, burdened with DEBT ana
borne down by taxation. Our Immedlate
wants are payment Of the one, and relief
from the other-the discharge Of our per-
sonsl obligstions-the development OF our
internal resources-the restoration and sd
vaneement of our financial prosperity.
To effect these we must cut down ex-
penses and abandon extravaganza
our gold and silver at home-creste an
American msrket-regulste our cur
rency, and transact our business BY
specie Standard labor hard in all branches
of industry, snd thoroughly protect all
d d rtments of labor.
The frst great step in this direction, We
firmly believe, IS G1l increased prefecture
Tariff. It is to be noted that during tns
war the extraordinary advance OF gold
preyented importations and amply protect
ed our industry; that the return OF peace
has so deprecated gold that imPortatlens
sre being largely renewed that this, sooeo
TO the necessary burden of excise taxstloh'
has begun to cripple our mechanical enSeL-
prises to an alarming extent; that unless
relieved by early legislation, we shAlspee0-
lily be flooded by the pauper productions
of Europe; and that under these enormous
disadvantages our home manufactures can
not long survive. We must inAugurste q
system of competition between the we'll
paid. intelligent labor of 8 free country
and the ill-paid, ignorant labor of denss,
despotic countries. Such system high
protective tariff alone affords, thus opening
our only avenue to financial equality with
the world. -----
Every true interest of the farmer, the
mechsnic, the miner and the manufacturer,
demands 3 judicious embargo on importa-
tions. Public and private economy de-
msnd It. The non. expectation OF gold
depends upon it. The creation OF 3 home
market depends upon it. Financial nde-
pendence is q dream without 1t. The
success of our industrial pursuits and the
development Of our wealth are impossible
without it. In short, we believe that our
individual prosperity and our national So,
curity and progress can only be realized
by the early promotion and steadtAst pro-
lection of American industry.
Believing thus, we have organized TINS
Society, to Disseminate practical mforma-
ton and arguments on this subject among
the citizens of Northern Ohio, 70 the end
that the popular opinion may be lnteih-
gently formed and efectuslly welded ior
the greatest good.

Canadian Affairs.

Canadian affairs are assuming an aspect
interesting to the people of this country.
The Provincial Parliament is now in tes-
sion st Quebec, and portions Of its proceed
ings and the general sentiments Of the
members, as described by our eorreipon-
dents, are significant. The feeling in favor
of annexation to the United States has
grown rapidly of late. It is said that one
third of the Parliamentary members are in
favor of it, and all that is wanted 70 carry
the project through to success is q bold and
firm leader. The speech in the lower
House in response TO the Governor Gener-
aPs address was particularly compliments
~ to the valor Of the United States in War,
and its strength and power in pesce, and
was frequently greeted with the English
shear, hear l" " exclamation. In the midst
Of the excitement and varying feeling, the
Ministry have becom0 somewhat alarmed,
and will, it is understood, abandon for the
present session both the confederation and
ftoutier defences scheme.-M. z. Herald.

MOVEMENT OF HPECULATORs

NEW lORk1 AuYusL To-
The failure of the firm of Ketehum u
Co. have caused q perfect rush of stock
speculators from the watering places to
the city, many of them to find themselves
heavy losers. An immense delegation Of
bankers is here from New England and
that section, who will suffer severely, as
Ketchum & Co. held a large amount Of
Eastern funds. An examination of the
transactions of young Ketchum is being
conducted. Of the Board Of Brokers Dab
ney, Margen s. Co. hold 500, 900 of forged
certificates. A detective went 10 Boston
yesterday to search the steamer Asia for
Ketchum, and will probably proceed to
Halifax to catch him in case he went over
land. Some people think that he IS CON
fined in the city.
