AGE OF ANIMALS.
SUICIDES' AT NIAGARA.
One of -the earliest of the Inane
cases of suicide at Niagara, and
one of the most mysterious as
well, says a Philadelphia Times
correspondent was that of a hand-
some lady and gentleman who
leaped together over the Ameri-
can Falls, from Prospect Point.,
in July, 1831. The firsts are re-
membered by many of the old les -
idents of the Falls to -day.,
The man was a tall, handsome
young follow, about twenty five
years of age, elegantly dressed,
and registered at one of 'hotels
near the falls as William Claridge.
IIe told nothing . of himself to
those who met him, except that
he came from St. Louis, his home,
and expected to meet his wife, a
Spanish lady, who had recently
landed in Now York en route from
Cuba. One night the last passen-
ger to alightlP,'frorn one of the
coaches; was a beautiful young
woman whose (0111 plcx!o 9.plainly
bototcenodSpanish blood. Though
plainly dressed, her face and gen-
61.111 :tl appearance' gave every evi-
dence ot culture and refinement.
She no sooner caught sight of the
gentleman than she rustled up to
him and threw herself into his
arms, regardless of the - bystand-
ers. Some whe were present not-
iced that handsome Mr Claridge
returned the beautiful lady's
greeting rather coldly, and then
his face worn. a scowl, while the
eyes of tho dark Spanish beauty
became suddenly dimmed with
tears. What passed between
them after they reached the hotel
was never known. A servant
heard loud and angry words in a
man's voice, mingled with fem-
inine sobs and pleadings issuing
from their apartment, but as they
spoke in Spanish the listener was
unable to recognize the pur-
port of their conversation. A lit-
tle afterwards they strolled out of
the hotel arm in arm, and 311.
Claridge infir'med the proprietor
that they were • going to obtain a
view of the falls by moonlight.
They never returned. About half
an hour after, a pedestrian on the
Canada side saw the figure of a
man and woman jump -over the
falls from Prospect Point, the
moon being at the full and rend-
ering all. objectsiplainly visible.
The bodies were fund two days
after near the Whirlpool. Noth-
ing further concerning them was
ever learned. In the 'Autumn of
1853 a gentleman of commanding
appearance, handsomely dressed
and with costly diamonds, about
forty five years of age, came to
Niagara and registered at the
principal hotel. Ile wrote the
name "Daniel Webster" on the
register, but all knew that he was
,,,not the illustrious statesman of
the day. Two days after his ar-
rival he crossed the river to the
Canadian side, walked into the
rapids aboqe the Ilorseslloe Falls
and was instantly swept over the
brink of the seething cataract. A
few days later his mangled body
was -found and an inqudAt held,
'which developed tho fact that his
name was Vandegger, and that he
was a resident of Newton Centre,
the mf ot beautiful of all the charm-
ing suburbs of Boston. Six years
previously he hid fallen' in love
with a very pretty young lady,
who was employed as a cashier in
ono of the aristoc'r'atic restaurants
of tho Hub. Completely capti-
vated by her charming face :old
winning way, he had married her,
though r113 was a number of years
his junior. She was established
as mistress of a palatial home at
Newton. Her husband's wealth
and social position immediately
secured for her an entrance into
the most select society of Boston.
Five years passed when disgrat e
overtook the young wife. She

A ROMANTIC STORY.
At the regular monthly meet.
iug of the directors of the Mon-
treal Society for the Prutoi'tion of
Women and Children yesterday
the Secretary's monthly report
contained a recital of a number of
cares in which destitute or op-
pressed females had boon relieved
and 1rotectcd by the society.
One case in which the society had
most beneficially interfered was
somewhat romantic. Some time
ago a young woman came to the
Secretary aid stated that she had
been betrayed under l)romise of
marriage, which her betrayer re-
fused to fulfil. On inquiry it
was learned that the young loran
1\•i'td acknowledged. this to au Am
crienn clergyman in the city. On
the advice of the -society's counsel
the young; man was arrested and
placed in jail. It appeared that
•$25,000 was coining to •!lint in
l:nglnud under :t will,. provided
his \vitlOwed mother remarried.
This she had clone, 111(1 hnving,be-
come- entitled to the fortune • he
consented to marry the girl. Ho
was released, :t license and ring
procured•,Eand having settled $15,-
000 on his bride they . were mar-
ried and aro now living happily
together. The report also stated
that it was through the instru-
mentality of Mr Wm. Darling,
Mr Barnard and the Secretary
that Vaughan, alias Melbourne,
had bean arrested. 31r Darling
had raised one hundred dollars
for carrying on the prosecution.
'Just imagine your wife not being able to speak
forton days. %Vlmt a change there would be in
the house! what an unnatural silence ! A case
of this kind occurred in Uamilton sometime ago
and one bottle of Wilson's Wild Cherry eured the
afflicted lady In four days. This medicine has no
equal for the cure of Coughs,- Colds, Whooping
Cough or Croup, Sold by all druggists. -
A BIT OF HISTORY.
it may interest some students
of the Reciprocity question to be
reminded that.as long ago as 1862,
the idea of a Commercial - Union
was advanced by the United
States. The Treaty of 1854 was
then in force, and the Yankees
were .dissa,tisficdwith its operation
because, they said, Canadians
bought less from them than they
bought from. Canadians. Under
that treaty, certain products of
each country were addmitted into
the other duty free, liberty to tax
other products being still reserv-
ed: A committee -of the House of
Representatives complained that
Canada had, while the•li-eaty was
in force, constantly increased her
duties on such products as wervo
not enumerated in the 1i sty,
Tho committee's report Wats sent
by Lord Lyons to the British
House of Commons. It set forth
the fact above stated ; asserted, in
the strongest terms, the import-
tance to Canada and to the United
States of the most unrestricted in-
tercourse, and advocated, as the
best.if not the only method of ef-
fecting it, a complete Zollver•ein,
or Customs Union on the German
plan, including the United States
and all British North America,
within tho limits of which no
Customs duties whatever should
be levied.
Have theYankees changed their
minds during the last 26 years ?
Jf:nard'rL-;r,tmentis' edT,ylh�"s'ciaas
Much sympathy is felt for Mr
W, II. Little, of Ingersoll, who
has been so deeply afflicted by
the loss of his entire family with-
in a short time. Isis wife died
on the 8th of August, and on the
18th ult. his eight-year-old son
was taken off by croup. The
other day his only remaining
youncr son became a vie i n c f
diphtheria. The first member of
the family died abort 14 mer,th3
ago.
As an example of the profit of
fruit -growing in Essex county it
may be mentioned that John
Bruner, of Ruthveu, sold from 5
acres orchard,950 barrels (dapples
at $1.75 per barrel, and enough
other fruit taa bring the proceeds
up to $2,000 off the 5 acres.
The sparrows of this Continent
and the rabbits of Australia are
plagues introduced by the inhabi-
tants themselves. The sparrows,
however, seem to be a mild in-
fliction in comparison with the
rabbits. The twenty or twenty--
five million sheep pastured on tbo
Riverina plains are being pushed
away by rabbits ; at one station
the flocks have declined in numb-
er from 110,000 to 1,200 head ; the
rabbits have eaten up and de-
stroyed all tho grass and herbs,
have barked all the edible shrubs
and bushes, and have themselves
perished by thousands. The noise
made by the running of rabbits
near the Murray River was com-
pared by travellers to the patter-
ing of a hail storm. Mr C. G. N.
Lockhart, in an article. in Black -
wood's Magazine, advises the en-
couragement of cats and iguanas.
Poxes have been introduced, but
have themselves become a mils-
