The Death of Niagara Falls.

While it is not Immediately alarm
ing, it is at least interesting to read in
Harper's Weekly the prediction that in
z 500 years hence the discharge of Nj
agara will have become intermittent,
passing the low stages of the lake, and
that finally Niagara river on the right
edge of the basin will have its water
turned back and southwards and no
water will flow ,over the Niagara es-
carpment of that day. Harper's Week
ly says that Through this agency
alone Niagara falls will cease to exist
long before the escarpmeDt has been
worn away to the river level at Goat
island, but rs it is even now lessening
the volume of water poured over the
falls, the erosive power Of the stream is
diminishing, and we must therefore in
crease the period necessary for the re-
treat of the Canadian falls to the south
end of Goat island and the stealing Of
the waters of the American falls. AS
suming the continuity of the forces
uamed, we might outline the probable
future life and the death of the falls
thus: With progressive loss in water
volume the Canadian falls will reach
the south end of Goat island in from
1000 to 1900 years the death of the
American falls. The flow of the wa
tiers will now have become intermit.
tent, and at first only at periods of
mean and high water In Lake Erie.
eventually at high water alone, will
there be any discharge over the escarp-
ment. This will continue for period
of 1,500 to 1000 years. The entire flow
to the north will cease, and the river
will run back into Lake Erie, leaving
the escarpment dry at point not very
far south of Goat island and with a
