Niagara Falls is one of the finest structures in the world. I have beet visiting this favorite waterlng-plac, recently for the first time, and wm well pleased. A gentleman who was with me sab it whs customary to bo disappoints tu the Falls, but that subsequent vis its were sure to set that all light. H> said that it was so with him. He sail, that the first time he went hack-fare were so much higher than the Fulls t hat the Falls appeared insignificant But that Is all regulated now. The htickmeu have been tamed, numbered, aud ptacadrod and black guarded, aud brought into subjet'- ion of the law, and dosed with moral principle till they are weak as mis slouurles. They are divided into two elute now, the Regulars and the Privn leers, and employ their idle time h warning people against each other. The Regulars are under the hotel banners, uud the Privateers prowi darkly on neutral ground aud pick off stragglers at half price. But there ure no more outrages and extortions. That sort of thing cured itself. It made the Falls un popular by getting into the newspa pers. and whenever a public evil achieves that sort of success for it self its days are numbered. It became apparent that either the Lulls had to be discontinued, or tin huckmen had to sabsi.de. They could not dam the Falls, so they uid the hackmen. One can be comfortable and happy there now. I drank up most of the American Falls before I learned that the witters went not considered medical. \Vn> are people left in ignorance t his wav V I might have gone ou and ruined it tine property merely for the want ut a little information. Aud yet the sources of information are uot meagre at Niagara Falls. You are something in doubt what tou ought to do, but you are seldom in doubt concerning what to do. If an infant can read, that Infant is irlhnsurubly safe in Niagara. If you room at the hotel you will find your course marked out in the most convenient way, by means of placards on the wall like these: "Poll the bell-rope gently, but don’t jerk.” “Bolt your door.” “Dout scrape matches on the walls or furniture.’ “Turn off your gas when yon re tire.” “Tie up your dog." “If you put your hoots outside the door they will lie blacked, but the house will not be responsible for their return.” This is a confusing and tunglcsbme proposition, because it moves you to deliberate long aud puiufully us to whether it will really beany object to you to have your boots blacked unless they are returned. "Give your key to ihe omnibus driver if you forget, and curry it off with you.” Outside the hotel, wherever you wander, you are intelligently assist ed by the signs: “Keep off the grass.” "Don’t climb the trees.” "Hands off the vegetables.” “Don’t bitch your horse to the shrubbery,” “Visit the Cave of the Winds.” "Have your portrait taken in your carriage.” “Forty per cent, in gold levied on all peanuts atnl other curiosities pur chased iu Canada.” "Photographs of the Falls taken here. "Visitors will please notify the Su lieriutendciit of any neglect on the part of employees to charge for com modities.” (No inattention of this kind is ob served. J "Don’t throw stones down ; there might be people below.” “The proprietors will not be re sponsible for parties who jump over the falls.” iMore shirking of responsibility— it appears to be the prevailing thing here.) I always had a high regard for the signers of the Declaration of Inde tieudance, hut now they did not real ly seem to amount to much along with the singers of the Niitgra Fulls. To tell the truth the multitude of singers annoyed me. It was because I noticed at.last they were prohibit ing the very thing I was just wanting to do. I desired to roll on the grass; the sign prohibited it. I longed to smoke; a sign prohibited it. And I was just in the net of throwing u stone over to astonish and pulverize such parlies as might be picnicking below, when a sign l have just mentioned forbade that. Even that satisfaction vvtis de nted me, aud I was a friendless or phan. There was no resource now Imt to seek consolation from the flowing bowl. I drew my flask from my pocket, but it was ail in vain. A sign confronted me, which said ; "Nodrinking is allowed ou these premises.” On that B|>ot I might have perished of thirst but for the saving 'words of an honored maxim that flitted through nty memory at that mo ment : “AH signs tail in dry times.” Common law takes precedence of the statutes. I was saved. The noble red man had always been a darling of mine. I loved to read about him in tale and legends aud romance. I love to read of his Inspired saga city, and of his love of the wild, free life of mountain and forest, and his grand truthfulness; his hatred of treachery, and his general nobility of character, and Ids stately metaphor ical speech, and tits chivalrio love for the dusky maiden, and the pictur esque pomp of his dress and accou trements. When I found the shops at Niagara Fulls full of dainty bead-work and stunniug moccasins, arid equally stunning toy figures representing hu man beings who carried their weap ons in holes bored in their arms and bodies, shaped like a pie, I was filled with emotion. I knew that now 1 was going to come face to face with the noble red man. A lady clerk in the shop told me, indeed, that all her grand array was ma<le by the Indians, aud there were plenty about the Fulls, and that they were friendly, and that It would uot be dangerous to B[>eak to them. I came uixiu a camp of them gath ered in the shade of a great tree, making moccasins, auu addressed them in the following language or friendship; , „ “Noble Bed Men, Brave Grand Sa chem. WarCtiiefs, Squaws,and High you-Nuck-a-Mucks! The pale face from the land of the setting sun greets vou! You, Beneficent Polecat; you, Devourer of Mountains; you. Roar ing Thundergust- the pale face from bevnnd the great water greets you all. “War and pestilence have thiunod COLUMBUS, GA., SATURDAY, DECEMBER 11, 1875. your ranks aud destroyed your once proud nation.

U, iii'iiu baski ts, altd moccasins— a single flush and they all appeared to hit me at once and no two of them in the same place. In the next instant the entjro tribe was upon me. They tore all the clothes off me; they broke all my arms and legs; they gave me a thum a. Unit UeuleU Uie top of my head till it would hold coffee like a saucer, aud then to crown their disgraeetul pro* coediugs and add insult to injury, they threw me over the Horseshoe Fall and I got wet. About ninety-mine or a hundred feet from the top the remains of my vest caugnt on a projecting roi k. and I was almost drowned before I could get loose. 1 finally fell and brought up in a world of foam ut the foot of of the Fall, whose celled and bubbly mas ses towered up several inches above uiv head. Of course I got into ♦he eddy. I sailed round aud round it forty-four times, chasing a chip and gninuigou it each round trip u half mile reaching u bush on the hank forty four times, and just missing it a hair’s breadth every time. At. last a tuau walked down and sat down close to that bush, and put a pijie in Ids mout h and lit it match and followed me with one eye and kept the other on the match while he sheltered it with his hands from the wind. Presently I remarked, “Please excuse the curiosity of a drowning man, but will you explain this singu lar conduct of yours? 1 ’ "With pleasure. I atn tho Coro ner. Don’t hurry ou my account. I can wait for you. I wish I had a match.” “ Dike my place and I’ll go aud get vmi one,” 1 said. He declined. This lack of confi dence “ti his part created a coolness between us, and from that time for ward I avoided him. It. was my idea iu case anything happened to me to so time occur rence as to throw uiv custom into the minds of t he opposition Coroner over ou the American side. At lust a polioei. an came along and arrested me for disturbing the peace liv veiling for help. I’he Judge lined me, hut I had the advantage of him. My money was with my pantaloons, which were with the Indians. Thus I escaped. I atn now lying in a very critical condition. At least I utn King any way critical or not. lam hurt all over, but I cannot tell t he extent yet, because the doctor is not, done taking the inventory. He will make out my manifest this evening. However, thus far, in thinks only six of my wounds are lUinl. I don’t mind the otlters. Upon regaining my fight triitnl I said : “It is an awfully savage tribe of Indians that do the bead-work and moccasins for Niagara Falls, doctor. Where are they from?” I shall not be able to finish my re marks about Niagara Falls until I get better. Iron Paper. In the great exhibi tion of 1851 in London an American specimen of iron paper wasexhibited. A lively coinpction among iron rol ling mailulaoturers was excited by the above challenge from America, as to t he thinness to wldeh (rou could lie rolled colil. Mr. Gillott rolled sheets the average t Idokness of Which was the eighteen hundredth part of an inch. In other words I,Bno sheets piled upon each other would collect ively measure an inch in thickness, while the thinnest tissue paper to be purchased iu the stationer’s store measures the twelve hundredth of an inch. These very thin sheets art* perfectly smooth and easy to write on, although porous when held Up to a good light. Spanish Interpretation en trant'* tie*, unite. London, Dec. 10.—A Madrid dis patch to the Standard says that Thursday morning’s papers there express the opinion that the portion of President Grant’s message ou Cu ban affairs is no more alarming than itis former utterance on tho subject. Tho Conservative journals consider his language serious. The general opinion in political circles is that the message is favorable. The Epoca and the Diario Espunola think that the intervention plot is not really In tended, and iielieve that Europe would not allow it. Further reinforcements are prepar ing for Cuba. Enstine Explo*fon. Macon, Oa., Dec. 10.—The engine of the down train from Macon to Brunswick exploded this morning, near Cochiau’s, Oa.. killing George Horning, the engineer, and slightly wounding Ed Richards, fireman. No other casualties. A Total Wreck. London, Dec. 10. . The bark Selma, from Darien, for Grietswold, went ashore at Thiessan, December sth, and will be a total wreck. The cargo will probably prove an entire loss. California and China. San Francisco. Dec. 10. -Gov, Irwin was inaugurated to-day. He urges legislation to procure a modifica tion of the treaty with China, with Dew restorations as to Chinese immi gration. Mtwi from the Frontier San Antonio, Dec. 10-The Fort Davis correspondent of San Antonio, Herald, writes that four days ago a Mr. Lyle was shot in the leg, which was subsequent ly amputated by In dians within 25 miles of Fort Davis, On same night an American was shot through the body by Indians within flive miles of the Fort. Soldiers and and citizens are out in pursuit. Its is believed at head quarters thathe per petrators were not Indians but white men. Gen. Shatter’* scout has re turned to Fort Oottohl and various companies nil returning to their posts. Genl. Ord is satisfied with the re sult of the scout. Various large bands of Indians have been dispersed and driven off, and thus prevented from raiding into Texas, and much valuable informa tion lias been obtained about the hitherto unexplored pmtion of the Staked J?lains. Gen. Ord says the raod from Mexico into Texas, is as bad as if Cortina had not boon arrested. The feeling between the Americans and Mexicans along the Lower Rio Grande, is intensely bitter. Gen. A. Baird, Inspector General of the Division of Missouri has arrived. Hnbrork Indicted. St. Louis, Dec. 10. The Grand Ju ry presented their ten new indict ments, including one against Gen. Babcock, for whom an officer has gone to Chicago. Mr. Henderson, in replying to Mr. Pierrepont’s rebuke, says he stands by his speoeh and has no apologies to make. New York, Dec. 10.-A special to the Times from St. Louis says the indictment against Gen. Babcock was found by a vote of IS to 1 in fa vor or a true bill. The charge con tained in the indictment is conspir ing to defraud the Treasury of the United States. The Grand Jury, be fore adjourning, sent letters to ex- Marshul Newcomb and District At torney Patrick, saying thut although charges had boou made against them of conspiring to defraud the Govern ment, a full and exhaustive investi gation had failed to convince ttie ju ry of their guilt.
