A RAPID CHANGE.

The rapidity with which females
adapt themselves to the circumstances
and fashions with which they are
surrounded, and especially the fash
ions, is simply marvellous. On Mon
day last, a lady, who employs several
domestics, got new table-girl, just
arrived in the city from rural dis
tricts,-a bright-eyed, rosy-cheeked
damsel, who blushed whenever any
of the male members of the house
hold looked at her; a girl whose hair
was combed smoothly back from of
a tanned forehead ; whose dress had
sleeves to it, came up to her throat
and down to her feet. On Tuesday
her hair went up on to the top of her
head. and was coiled up over a.
something; on Wednesday she cut
the sleeves off her dress; turned it in
at the throat, pinned it back, and
bumped it out behind, and could look
all the men in the house square in
the face for half an hour without the
hue Of modesty showing through he1
prepared chalk complexion. Yester'
day she completed her degradation
by cutting off all but an inch or two
of her front hair.

CHANGES AT NIAGARA,
Correspondence Boston Transcript.

Correspondence Boston Transcript.
= My first visit to the falls was made
some fourteen or fifteen years ago,
since which time I am able to detect
quite change in the appearance of
the cataract, especially in the confg-
uration Of the Horseshoe. There is
not so much water coming over the
American Falls as there was twenty
or even ten years ago; and the edge
of the cliff of the Horseshoe, east of
the point where the Terrapin tower
once stood, is now almost dry. The
Horseshoe has lost its old shape, and
instead Of presenting grand half
circle, now assumes the form of three
sides of a square. More water ap-
pears to fall over the Horseshoe
than few years ago, and the day
will probably come when the Ameri-
can Falls will disappear. I am sus-
tained in these views by Mr.. Dewitt
G. Bartelle, artist, of Bethlehem,
Pennsylvania, who has recently spent
couple of weeks at the falls max
ing sketches for a grand painting,
| which will be sent to the Centennial
exposition. Some years ago he
painted view of Niagara, and he
DISCOVERIES the changes wrought by
time in this stupendous cataract
which I have mentioned.
