Niagara Fails in Winter.

correspondent of the Rochester Express
writes from Niagara Falls "1'he icc-brdge is
formed in all its perfections, moro 80 than it has
been for the past twelve or fifteen years. The
ice columns rear their heads in all their majesty
below the American and Horseshoe Falls to the
ihejgh. of over 100 feet. Those at tho base OF
~ ne American Falls reach nearly TO the top OF
tho falls, and arc as clear HI crystal. On visiting
Table Rock the visitor passes between the ice
columns and the falls, and they present to the
view of the beholder magnificent spectacle
mile or more up tho river, and varies in thick
ness from two inches to five or six feet
Monday party OF seven young gentlemen
started from the head of the Third Sister lsland
which is about a mile from the starting point
and stopped at tho old scow which il anchored in
the river above tho rapids returning they went
under the Second Sister Island bridge down to
McCullough's Rock, broke some of the rock oil
AZ u memento, went over to the old scow below
the Third Sister Island and returned home.
The distance travelled on tho ice bridge was over
five miles, and this, it will be remembered. is
located over portion of the swiftest rapids
approaching the cataract. 1t Is SAID
the district trayersed has not been frozen
over before in twelve or fifteen years. In some
places the ice seemed frozen to the rocks, leaving
but little room for the water to flow between the
ice and the bed of the river. Tho ice gorge be-
low the falls is very rugged 1t ia supposed TO
be in some places piled mp to the thickness OF
twenty or thirty feet. One gentleman assured
Your correspondent that i'll ono locality
1t was forty feet thick, but we
took the story in with good deal of allowance.
The bridge below the falls ID very rough, max
ing travelling tiresome in the extreme to pedes-
trians, though this does not deter people from
crossing and recrossing tho river up to Within a
stones throw of the great cataract. The

Political Notes.

New Hampshire opens the elections of the
year on Tuesday next, when Governor, Con-
greshman, and other officers axe to be chosen.
There are three candidates in the field. Republi-
can, Democratic and Prohibitionist. The Re-
publicans are very hopful, and but for the
Temperance people would feel confident.
The Louisville Courier-,Jo,Tndl ailirms that
the number of illiterate voters in Kentucky is
rapidly on the increase, and that this increase IL
in greater ratio than the increase of population
this too III face of the fact that there arc few
persons Of foreign birth in the State, and but
few immigrants There arc about 300 districts
in the State, and not more than 100 are properly
provided, even now, with school houses.
Among the carpet .baggera on the Democratic
side of the United States Senate are Goldthwait,
of Alabama, a native of Boston Stevenson. OF
kentucky and Thurman of Ohio, both of whom
went from Virginia and Boreman, Of Wc't
Virginia. who ID a Pennsylyanian by birth.
There is a fear prevalent in Ohio that Governor
Allon's prospects for rising up" to the Demo
cratic nomination for the Presidency have been
dimmed by the sudden way in which AndroW
Johnson has leaped into popularity.
