The Falls Mystery in Rochester.

ROCHESTER, August 4.--The mystery at
tending the death of the young girl of fif-
teen, whose body was recently found at the
foot of precipice below the falls at this
place, has been partially cleared up by an i'm
portant arrest. The story of the painful at
fair, as told by three men who volunteered
as witnesses, was as follows: The girl was
at a church festival in Falls Fields, where a
large number of rough characters were in
terfering with the pleasures of the respecta-
BILE people, These three men, according 10
their story, saw the young girl go from the
house through the yard in the rear with a
Young man who was a stranger to them.
They followed the couple to a place where
the PERCEPTIONS bank of the river is broken
into ravine One of these men says he
found them in situation which comprO-
missed the young girls character. IN the
disturbance which followed, the girl, becom-
ing frightened, attempted to escape, but
took the wrong direction in the darkness,
and fell over the precipiee. The young man
with whom she was found disappeared, and
but one of the three other men seemed to
have courage enough to report the terrible
accident. The police afterward found the
mangled body near the foot of the falls, the
neck and one leg broken. The man who
led the girl away from the house has now
been arrested, and this arrest will go far to
clear up the mystery which has hung over
the case. 1t has naturally been suspected
that there was no fou1t tn man at all, but
that the poor girl was simply the victim of
desperadoes, who disposed of her by throw
ing her over the rocks. Whether this ar
rest clears up this suspicion remains to be
seen. The girl always sustained a good
reputation, and she was honest and indus
triOus.

Cincinnati Industrial Exposition.

This exposition, which is to open on the
sixth of September and continue five weeks,
will be the largest ever held in the United
States. The immense buildings have been
erected at great expense, and the entire
space has been taken up by Northern and
Western manufacturers.
The main hall is large room, consisting
of a succession of grand arches, seventy
two feet high; extending around the room
are galleries, approached by spacious stair
ways, and furnishing IL ,46S square feet of
space; the main hall and galleries combined
furnish a floor area of 34,968 square feet
This department is devoted to the display
of fine arts. textile fabrics, etc.
The north building, which is $50 feet by
lib, viii be devoted to pictures, sewing
machines and house furnishing goods.
The music hall, for exhibition of pianos
and musical instruments, will occupy
space of 40 by 113 feet
The floral hall is 167 feet long and 60 feet
wide. The hall will open upon promenade
of 2l9 feet square, which will give far more
space than has ever been devoted to hor-
ticultural exposition.
The power hall. for machinery, is 1874 by
172 feet in size, and is SO feet high. An idea
of the magnitude of the display expected in
this department may be had when it is
known that six large boilers are required to
furnish steam. There will be four lines of
shafting of $50 feet used, and over 81, 900
square feet of space will be devoted to ma
chinery in operation.
A guarantee fund of over So, 900 has been
contributed by the merchants of Cincinnati
to insure the managers against loss. The
sum of S2400 was subscribed in few b ours
for premiums to cotton planters for the b est
cotton on exhibition.

The Prisoner that VaIlandigham was De-
Tending Escaped from Jail.

At midnight the fire bells rang an alarm,
and it was found that seven prisoners had
dug their wayout of the county jail, among
others Mcclellan, in whose defense Vallan-
digham lost his life recently. They effected
their escape by tearing up a portion of the
stone floor of one of the cells in the south
east corner of the prison, exeavating tun-
mel into the cellar under the sheriff's resi-
dence. The cell from which the tunnel
was made is only about eight feet from
the cellar, but it must have required con-
siderable labor to excavate the whole of
sufficient size to enable the prisoners to
crawl through. The earth from the exca-
walton was thrown back into the cell. After
reaching the cellar they made their exit
through a window into the front yard of
the jail, and succeeded in reaching the
street before being discovered. The alarm
was at once given, and Sheriff Swadener.
with several of the police force and others,
started in pursuit of the fugitives, who had
scattered through the streets and alleys in
the vicinity of the Jail in various direc-
tons. The escape of any more of the in
mates-ten of whom remained in the jail
was prevented by the immediate presence
of the turnkey, though several of them re-
fused TO avail themselves of the opportunity
of attempting it.-Dayton (OhioJ Journal.

The Republican victory in North Caro-
hna insures that State against the Democ-
racy in the Presidential election. The con-
vention programme has been defeated BY a
majority Of from seven to ten thousand, and
the result is unquestionably of more than
local importance. Both parties have put
forth great efforts during the contest, and the
Democracy have bitter pill of disappoint-
ment to swallow. 1.-THE success Of the CON
yentionists is almost certain, said the World
and the Democratic journals of North Caro-
lima have been eager to describe the proba-
BILE course of the convention when it should
assemble in Raleigh in September. It was
TO repeal the present constitution of the
State, and to frame new one; to displace
all the Republican officers, and to throw the
Presidential vote for the Democratic candl-
date But all these pleasing illusions have
been rudely dispelled. The Republicans of
the State have developed an unexpected
degree of strength, and their emphatic re-
fusal to give the Democracy a lease of power
puts new phase on political affairs. The
vote of North Carolina is the first gun of
the Presidential campaign from the South
Ne,c York Commercial.

In the habeas corpus case before this
court, on Thursday, Ia father applying for
a writ to obtain the custody of his child J,
Judge beaumont has refused the applica-
ton on the ground that the relator is proven

child is in good hands, and expresses her
self as satisfied to remain where she is.
Eighth District Court-The Fourth Dis
trict Recordership Controversy.
In the case of Weber VS.. Billings, in which
is involved the right to the Office of Re-
corder of the Fourth District, default was
taken on the second of last August by the
Attorney General, who had commenced
proceedings against Billings, the present in
cumbent, under the intrusion act. Imme-
diately thereon counsel for Billings took a
rule to setJaside the default, which came on
for trial yesterday, Judge Emerson pre-
siding.
The point raised was whether the court
could grant default during vacation, de-
fendants attorney taking the ground that
no default could be taken unless during the
regular term, or at special session ap.
pointed during vacation.
Judge Emerson decided adversely to the
defendant, and ordered the rule to be dis
charged. Billings will now be obliged to
lio an ANSWER UclOre UHe expiration OF the
time necessary to confirm the default. and
the court will fix a special term for the trial
of the case.

BILE length, no less than four hours being
occupied by counsel, after which the case
was submitted and taken under advise
ment by Judge Emerson, who will proba-
bly, render the opinion at the next sitting of
the court.
In the case of several Judges VS.. A.
Dubuclet, State Treasurer, counsel for j. w.
Hillman has taken a suspensive appeal
from the Judgment of this Court ordering
the Treasurer to pay the judicial warrants
held by Judge Guidry. ,Hillman is the
holder of large amount of war; ants, and
he claims that if the judicial warrants re-
ferred to should be paid, it would entail
upon him a great loss.

ing Counterfeit Money.
The case of the four Spaniards, heretofore

RailIery of a Chicken Thief.

A story is told of Dick, darkey in Ken
lucky, who was a notorious thief, so vicious
in this respect, that all the thefts in the
neighborhood were charged to him. On
one occasion Mr.. Jones, neighbor of Dick S
master, called and said that Dick must be
sold out of that part of the country, for he
had stolen all his (Jones) turkeys. Dicks
master could not think So The two, how
ever, went into the field where Dick was
hard at work, and accused him of the theft.
'You stole Mr.. Jones turkeys" said the
master.
"No, didn't massa," responded Dick.
The master persisted.
''Well," at length said Dick, "I'l tell you
massa; l didn't steal dem turkeys, but last
night / went across Mr.. Jones pasture, and
saw one of your rails on de fence. SO l
brought home the rail, and eonfound it,
when come to look, dare were nine turkeys
on the rail"
