There are parties in this city who
are unscrupulous enough to sell pistols
to boys, and the consequence Is that
many ,urchins, not over 10 or IL years
of age, strut around with a loaded re-
volver in their pecket. which they do
not hesitate to use on the slightest
provocation. An instance occurred a
few days since in the eastern part of
the city, where 16-year old boy fired
at man and barely missed killing
him, and is now under $500 bail to
appear ut court. 1t is to be hoped that
some more of the young despradoes
may be brought to justice, and it will
also be well, II possible, to obtain the
names of the parties who sell these dan
Rerous weapons to boys, and also teach
them lesson.

One evening not long since, one of
the officers of the Sixth district, who is
on the day turn, arrived at mis- home
after being released from duty, tired
and weary. When supper was over,
he took seat on the porch and as the
night was warm, he removed his shoes
to rest his feet. After sitting and nod
ding for some time he concluded to re.
tire and went to bed, forgetting all
about his shoes. The next morning he
arose at his usual early hour, and re
membeIing where he had left his shoes
the night before, went out to look for
them, but unfortunately for him some
one had appropriated them during the
might. Since then he has been care
fully scanning the foot covering of
every man he chanced to meet who
wears an II = shoe. but up to this tine
the search has been fruitless.

The NIAGARA CuRRENT-In making the
survey of the proposed Whirlpool Railway
at Niagara Falls, which will run along the
bank at the edge of the river from the in
clned railway to the Whirlpool, the en-
gineers have run across some facts which
will surprise scientists. When the survey
was made in 1851 for tho Suspension Bridge,
it was claimed from the survey that the
river was higher at the Suspension Bridge
than at the foot of the falls, and this theory
was accepted, it being claimed that "the
immense pressure from the falls carried the
water up hill" The present survey, which
gives the first levels ever taken through tho
water line, shows that from the foot OF the
inclined railway for distance OF two miles
the incline is G feet, and from thence to the
Whirlpool, a little less than a mile, it is 54l
feet, thus giving the water the terrible force
it attains in going through the whirlpool

Treasure FROM TIE DEPTHs.-Diyers have

Treasure FROM TIE DEPTHs.-Divers have
just returned from the Island of Grand Canary
after raising sum of no loss than E9O,0Gn. This
amount was lying submerged 1873 feet deep about
mile from the island. The treasure went down
about two years ago in Spanish steamer called
the Alphonso MI. The steamer had on board
100000 worth of Spanish dollars on their way
to Cuba After lapse OF over year Captain
Stevens and three English divers were sent out to
try and recover the sunken treasure. They sue.
cecded in bringing up nine boxes containing spc-
cic of the value OF 10000 each, but the tenth
box could not be found. and tho divers had to
cone away without it. The money was in the
mail room, almost Mt the bottom of the ship. Tho
decks had to be forced by explosion, and when
the mail room was reached the divers had to haul
the boxes from one deck to the other until the
top deck of the vessel was reached. This wreck
lay on ridge of rocks, and one Of tho fears en-
tertained before the explosion effected was
that the force might prccipitate tho vessel to AL
most fathomless depths. Fortunately the lear
was not realized, but tho explosion sent to the
surface thousands of dead fish.
