The subject OF the retog OF the Falls attracts
much attention, and different opinions e1 pressed.
AL however, admit that, within few years, the
crryes Of both the falls have been falling away. At
he banks, however, there he's been no perceptible
change in the opinion of many of the old residents.
Persons are very frequently lost by accidentally
rong over the falls, and person has ever Yet been
D;csed up alive. a few years ago, two men who
were engaged In smuggling whiskey Were carried
over during the nght, and killed and man who

Recently there have been two lives lost at the
Falls through careessness. We believe there have
bsen with these exceptions, no fatal accidents since
the death Of Dr. Hungerford Frenchinan,
however, ;s believed have destroyed himselfthcre
sbou, two months ago. When he had been at the
Falls e" days, seemingly very much depressed
in spirits, he Iold lady that after being married
about weeks his wife had died, ihot he tired
Of the world and that he knew better way 10 die
than 10 90 over the Falls. He has not since been
heard Of, and is supposed to have thrown himselinto
the rapids. His troubles were not pecuniary, as he
left quantity of valuable baggage.
