were seen in this distance, presenting al
most every variety of natural scenery
The geological formation of the canon con-
sists principally of limestone and sand,
stoue Granite was found only at three
places, and in limited amount. No discov-
cries of precious metals were made, and no
indications of gold or silver were found in
the bed of the river. One section OF the
canon was found to consist of very fine
and beautifully polished marble, which is
at present entirely inaccessible. The
country traversed is barren beyond de-
scription, and is pronounced by Colonel
Powell not susceptible of cultivation,
even by irrigation.
Colonel Powell pronounces the reported
adventures of the man White who fur
nished the data for the article in Ltppan
cotts Magazine on the Grand Canon of the
Colorado, a complete fiction. No lives
were lost in the expedition, but all the in
struments except one set were destroyed
or capsized; and the only provisions
which the party had when they came out
consisted of twenty pounds of flour, com
pletely saturated with water.-C Chicago

An Insane Man Swept Over the Niagara
Falls.

On Friday night, a man between 20 and
35 years of age stopped at the Cataract
House, Fiagara Falls, and registered his
name as "Carl Schurz, New York" Satur-
day morning heleft the hotel without pay
ing his bill, and, taking carriage, started
for the new suspension bridge. He subse-
quently changed his mind and went to the
ferry, and crossed to Canada. 1t is said
that, in going over, he remarked to the
ferry man, while looking up at the falls,
that he could walk over on the edge of the
falls. Reaching the Canadian side he went
to table rock, and, walking to the wood
work, which projects into the river few
steps ABOVE Saul Davis place, he took off
his coat, laid it on the timber, gave his
money and watch to boy who was stand
ing by, and walked into the water, which
is shallow near the bank. About ten feet
from the bank, he sat down or slipped
down, and in an instant after was swept
over the precipice.. Persons who were
under the sheet at the time saw the body
on rock, where it remained several min
utes before it was washed off. The body
had not been recovered at last accounts.
The coat of the suicide and two pair OF
gloves are now in possession OF Mr.. Il. b..
Lewis, Clifton, Ont.
The dress and general appearance of the
man were that of respectable person,
and it is not improbable that he thought
he was "Carl Schurz," and that he could
walk across the edge of the cataract This
catastrophe will add fresh chapter to the
interesting history of the falls.-BxtdJo

MINE ancient pedal friend, last farewell!
So many days we've footed it together
The lane of life-in fair and stormy weather,
Mine eyes we'll nigh their lid dykes overswsll.
will remember when thou did st cncase
My neither limbs with pressure warm and tight
And many a corny twinge, from morn till night
Evinced the ardency of thy embrace.
Soon, like the love of some long-married wife,
Thy grasp, If not so strong, was still as true,
And pleasanter; and as we grew in life,
Thou vert as gentle as a plant shoe;
And while on thee / tramplcd every day,
To shield me thou did ct wear thy very sole away
Though despise the slander-monger's art,
And scoPn the wretch who blackens the fair fame
OF one whose richest fortune is his name,
Crhe wretch whose steel goes deeper than the

Yet it has been my daily wont, | own,
To black thy face until the skin has shone
With ebon glow as lustrous as the hue
That forms the charm of Guincas native breed.
But twas not that ] hated thee, indeed;

A Beautiful FOundlipg to be Sold at
Auction. aa

On the night of the 11th inst, baby
of the feminine gender, about six weeks
old, was found on the front door step. of
the glass warehouse Of Messrs. VIM.
Frank 81 Son, Pittsburgh. The little
founding was conveyed to the house of
neighbor until permanent provision could
be made for it. The affair was soon noised
about, and the child became an object of
great curiosity. 1t was very beautiful,
and the habiliments in which it had been
thus rudely presented to the public were
of very fine quality, suggesting an aristo-
cratic origin for the infant Rich and
poor, old and young, male and female,
married and single people, all became in
terested in the little waif, and all were
eager to adopt it. No one asked "Who
was her father? Who was her mother?"
but all were anxious to take the position
of father or mother. The interest being
so great, it was finally determined by the
temporary caretaker, to put the little one
up at auction, and sell her to the highest
bidder. This plan will be acted upon, and
the terms are cash-the money to be a
bonus for her benefit, to be placed in the
bank at compound interest, and to be
drawn when the girl arrives at the age of
eighteen years An interesting time was
anticipated at the sale, and the beautiful
foundling will doubtless bring a fabulous
price-Erc7tGnge

tered a dentists office at Virginia City,
Neb., the other day to have her teeth
filled. She was seated in the operating
chair, and parting pair of rich and tempt
ing lips, displayed two rows of ivory
white and glistening teeth. The doctor
couldn't understand it, and told her that
she had no teeth which required filling
and none to be extracted. She couldn't
understand much English, and the doctor
don't speak Spanish, and so the converse
ton grew lively by signs alone. Again
did he search, but with no better success.
He began to get excited. At last she
rushed from the Office and soon returned
with a lady of fashion, whose front teeth
disclosed the gold The dear thing only
wanted to be in the fashion.
A MRS ROBINSON, living about six
miles from Indianapolis, recently displayed
great heroism in saving her child from
drowning The child was playing near
an open cistern containing over six feet of
water, and fell in. The mother, alone in
the house, heard the splash and subsequent
screams. She went to the cistern and saw
the child floating on the water, and then
ran for ladder which she found had been
misplaced. She again fastened to the
cistern, and finding that the child had
sunk, plunged to the bottom, and after
two or three unsuccessful attempts at
length brought up the child, apparently
lifeless. Her cries had attracted neigh
Dor, who took the child and finally sue
ceeded in rescuing the heroic woman.
Both mother and child were in little time
fully restored.
THE Cape Cod Gazette relates the fol-
lowing instance of pluck and persistence
Con the afternoon Of the gale, two young
men of West Sandwich, named Gibbs,
went out in the bay fishing, in dory.
The gale coming upon them carried away
their sail and upset their boat, they cling
ing to the wreck One of them, who
could swim, divested himself of his boots,
took an oar, and struck out for the shore,
which was about q mile distant, telling
the other, who could not swim, to cling to
the wreck, and he would save him. After
reaching the shore, he constructed raft
composed of several rails, which he Sc
cured with his pants by tearing them into
strips for the purpose, launched it and
started to the rescue of his companion.
| When within few rods of him the raft
| was dashed to pieces He clung to one
of the rails, told his companion to hold on
| to the boat, and struck out for the shore.
He then constructed another launch, with
boards, which he secured by tearing his
drawers into strips, and a few nails. He
started for the wreck, and when within a
short distance of the boat the raft was
again demolished by the waves. He now
took to the wreck, cut the anchor-rope
and the wind having abated, drifted ashore
where the boat was righted and bailed
out. They then divided clothes and
started for home"

The Powell Expedition.

COLONEL j. w. POWELL, who left this
city last spring, at the head of an expedi-
ton to explore the Grand Canon of the
Colorado, returned yesterday, having, sue
oessfully traversed the entire canon, from
the Green river to the point where the
Colorado debouches into the open plain in
the Territory of Arizona. Several OF
Colonel Powell's letters describing the adj
ventures and discoveries of himself and
his party have appeared in the Tribune.
From the point where the last of these let
ters was dispatched, the expedition de.
scended the river about four hundred miles,
between walls almost vertical, ranging
from five hundred to fifteen hundred feet in
height--the exterior rim of the canon be-
ing from twenty-five hundred to four
thousand feet above the bed of the river.

cascades emptying themselves over. the

A Heart-BrOken Mother.

In 1864, notice was given that a boat
load of prisoners from Andersonville
would be exchanged and that they would
be landed at Annapolis, Md. Men and
women came from every part of the
United States, each with the hope of
meeting friend whom they knew to be
confined at Andersonville. Of course,
among such large number there could
not be more than one in one hundred that
could find the friend they came after.
When the boat came up to the wharf there
| was great crowd there to welcome the
| forlorn creatures, and to inquire after
others who did not come. Among the
| ! eXpectants was the mother of a soldier in
! the 18th Connecticut regiment, who
rushed ON board the boat, asking every
soldier she saw for her boy. From deck
| to cabin, in the cots and among the bar
rels, she searched for him but he was not
there, and no one had heard of him. She
had brought cap, a shirt and a pair of
pants, that he might have a clean change,
and with these across her arm she wan
dered among the crowd, saying, in half
inquiring, vacant tone, He has not
come; he has not come" For
year after she went regularly to the
wharf at sunrise from her lodgings,
which nobody could find, and gazed
for an hour down the bay, and muir
muring, he has not come," would go to
the Post Surgeon with the same cap,
shirt and pants, and ask why her boy did
not come. At the close of the war she
was taken to the Lunatic Asylum. But
one day last June she managed to get out,
and securing some old rags in place of the
clean pants, she astonished the family now
living in the house where the surgeons
quarters were then, by asking "why her
boy had not come" They shut the door
in her face, and she wandered down to
the wharf and was found the next morn
ing stiff and cold, sitting upright behind
some old barrels on the wharf, with her
CLASSY eyes still gazing down the bay
toward the point where steamers first came
in sight.
tsHe had not come to her,
