The river nl'ght have fallen for ■centuries over this solid weir of hardest schist; but u fissure having been made in nature’s masonry, it is not unlikely that the river will con- tin ue its excavation, begun near Lake Ontario, and do its work more qu ckly than of lute. Now that a breach has been made in the fortress, it seems certain that the volume of water, acting as u perpetual batter ing ram on th; wall of each side of it, would soon detach other portions of them, u”d thus alter the whole form and character of the famous Horseshoe Fulls. attfttlte pvfcpstfMlfccr^tioavyr *♦$) in f>e primoofiadvtrMs—ruik, WMBkuoq hiafcjhdtni oouapsHed lo UnUR* Mint id trip • «|K>» \ upon ileMhiAg ngp»«a MtMn U ^ reoc mid a p^pos 4 tuf npnfcn If *1 I V tun r a* < .

ELGQUEN< E. Eloquence in a man is as difficult to define as fascination in woman. Is an indescribable something which carries us uway captive, we know or^aiiiz-d a collision between knuckkis and a point, midway not why or how. And it is almost infinite in variety. Burke was, and is, considered one of the greatest, if not the greatest of English oratots; yet the House of Commons never adjourned after a speech of his to enable the members to regain their men cal balance. The House of Commons did do that for Sheredun. None will deny to debater first class oratorical ability, yet he could never sweep an audience with him as did Clay. Burke and Webster will live lorever in priut; Sheridan andClay in that, fond tradition which is quite as loiperishublc, il not as satisfactory. Sargeut S. Premiss was pfobiblv more eloquent than either Sheridan or Clay, yet lie exists only as u dim and fading memory. It is doubt InI whether the very highest order ol eloquence can h > preserved in any other way. The subtle spun that pervades it at d gives to it irresistible power evaporates in type.

A ariTAW.B texture for a hild- luadeh j*. rs-'ii would bemo’lnur. The present cost of printing paper is one of the most mysterious results of the recent business boom, and it is a result that hns come to be duite a tax upon the press and upon all pub lishing concerns. Tne price has in creased one third, and the advance is purely arbitrary, lor there hus been no corresponding increase in the price of rags, strati or wo °d. Fortunately, hpwever, it is in the power of congress to come to the relief of both publish era and paper makers, for the lattei claim that owing to the duty on soda- ash and other chemicals used lor bleuchmg purposes they are compelled to pay exorbitant prides put upon these things by the home nionopiu-s. They say thut il the duty upon these things was moved or reduced they could afford to reduce the price of printing paper. Now, » tax upon the puper manufacturers is really » tux upon the p*-opie, uud congress cannot too soon repeal it. All- bleaching chemicals should be admitted doty free, ami the duty or. printing paper itself should be reduced from 'en to twenty per centum. ’With tin- bleach ing agents admitted free, no foreign pa ( er maki r can afford to compete wi'ii the America mills and pay a duty of ten per e ntum. On the contrary, the latter eould s nd their paper :o foreign markets and success !uilv Compete with Europeui* mills.
