& OUR WATERING PLACES. NIAGARA FALLS, Beeuifal Weather—Improvements in Nia- «ara—The New Suspension BridgeThe Hackwen’s Nuisance Abated=Tie Commerce of the Vilinge-The Internal Revenue Pro- tected=Advice to Young Men—A New Spee cies of Flower Discovered NIAGARA FALLs, June 21, 1869, Visitors are dropping into this home of mighty waters at the rate of about sixty to seventy a day, the three hotels, Fulton’s International, the Cata- ract House, and the Clifton, in the New Dominion, receiving about an equal share of guests. The m- proved weatier for the past few days, with a pleasant temperature of about seventy-eight co eighty degrees, ie no doubt the great attraction, together with the ex- ceeding beauty of the Woods on both sides of the river. Nothing could be more delicious than the fresh green of the foliage and the summer odors of the trees and wild fowers. There have been many changes in Niagara since last year, and all for the better. First, there is the new suspension bridge, a few hundred rods below the falls, Which leads direct to the Clifton House. It was completed last January by a company, of which Jonn T. Bush is president. It cost, 1 believe, $150,000, and is now open for the first time for pe- destrians and carriages at a moderate rate of toll. At present it has but a single track, so that car- riages cannot pass both ways; but by an ingenlous contrivance notice is given by @ bell at each end that the track is clear. By next season the briage will be widened so as to adinit of a double carriage road. The finest view of both falls is to be had from the centre of this bridge. It 1s not inferior to that from the Clifton House or the splendid residence of Mr. Bush, which crowns the hill behind the hotel, where the Prince of Wales spent a month during his visit as guest of Mr. Bush. Great improvements have been made in the hotels on the American side. ‘The International piazza is extendea the whole length of the building. The grounds in the rear have been newly laid out, and several fresh shade trees planted, and nearly ihe entire house has been suppl ed with new furniture. The capacity now is abont 600 people. Many rooms are engaged for the seu allhougi the Visitors at present are not many. Among those here are Win, Curtis Noyes, Jr., Freeman PD, Markwald, of Brookiyn; José Ma. an- Eulo, of Caba; W. inp, of New York; Thomas M. J » Grange and D, L. Shearer, of diana and The Cataract House tone addition on the as the original it ts not quite compieted; but before the of July one story, at least, will be ready for thus accommodaung 200 guests in addition 400 which the old building now provides for. This establishment 1s condacted by the old proprie- tors, Whitney & Jerauid. Fulton of course rans his own house, with the able tance of George M. Colburn, in his usu: lient style. Shears «& Bromley lease the Clit r. Bush, who con- templates a vast enlargement for the next season by removing the rear cottages and building a new wing. Commodore Vanderbilt 18 rusticating at the Cataract and keeping an eye on the Central road, He Wook the opportunity of being present at a pre vate fancy trot on the Canadian Course on Saturday between some of the horses around here. It was not much of a sporting afair, it being all for the honor and glory of the thing. ‘The business of the Cataract House will come largely from the West this season. Of the New Yorkers there now 1 notice Alexander D. Dalrymple and a large party, A. B. Bayliss and family, of Brooklyn, and many others. Colonel Waits and family, of Santa Fe, New Mexico, are also there; while Boston, New Orleans, Cincinnati and Louisville are ali represented. Visitors to Niagara will not be sorry to learn that tne detestable hackmen’s nuisance bas been abated. Formerly it was impossible for @ stranger to show himself in the streets without being importuned, badgered and abused by these fellows. It was no uncommon thing to hire a hack for two dollars and afterwards to find that it was a question of “five or fight.” Bue that is all changed. They are ws meek as mice and as civil as hack- men can be. A new Hoard of ‘Trustees, composed of the richest and most active gentiemen in the village, have put talngs tm order in this re- spect. Still it is safer and cheaper to hire a cui at the hoteis—trom Mr, Harris, at the International, and Mr. Muri at the Cataract House, You will be shown everything about the place, Including civility. i need not say that Niagara is not a very exten- sive commercial place, aud yet it is promiment enough in the peculiar branches of trade that, from Ihe remotest times, appertain to it. It has, for ex- ample, under our biessed internal revenue laws, a bevy of Custom House officers, whose onerous duty it is to see that no fantastic bead ornaments—those highly useful and important parts of American com- merce—which are purchased rom the Indian depots on the Canada side, shall be brought across the Niagara river except upon the payment of a duty of forty-five per cent “in gold."’ very tree and bench on Goat Island notifies you this fact, duly certified by the signature of secretary Bout- well, Why shoud We not have a recipro- city treaty with Canada upon this question ol pincw Mr. importation of moccasins, watcbpockets, shions and needle case: venture to say that Loutwell was never so well posted befo posters do not add much to the sylvan then they prevent staugeling and are the salva- the interbal revenue iking of the com- haracter of this vil rybody who has » bogus Indian ed fans, eiks’ plies of the defanct Tavie euever so near Tapie Rock on the stalls of the venders.

The fact that the company have se- lected a prominent and suceessful New York hotel man to take charge of it is an evidence that the com- pany are jive men and have an eye to New York trade, A large number of New Yorkers have already engaged rooms at the Cape this season, and their glowing accounts of the magnificence of the Stock- ton wil bring others, and so run these Philadelphia slow coaches off the track and take possession of both Long Branch and Cape May as outlying rural retreats of opulent New Yorkers. Long Branch, once upon a me, Was a famous resort of Philadelphians— a Philadelphia watering piace, tn fact—but the New Yorkers crowded them out and they all went to Cape May. As long as Cape May was so far away and had such wretched hotels and poor drives New Yorkers were content fo let the Phila delphians enjoy Cape May all to themselves. But, now that a@ little New York life is being infused into Cape May, and with hotels fitfor New Yorkers to live in, and new drives, and a race course, why New York 1s rich enough to ran both places, But the Pniladeiphians ni not be alarmed; there are other places on the Jersey coast where they can enjoy themseives in peace. There's Long Branch or Beesley’s Point, where it 1s insutfer- ably duil for New Yorkers, but might suit our ee vincial cousins first rate, and we promise the New Yorkers will never follow them there—not in this century, at all events. THE HIDE AND LEATHER DEALERS’ National Board of ‘Trade, at their last convention in New York, agreed to meet at Cape M in July, 1882. ‘This body 18 composed of some of our most sold aud infuential men, and Mr. Lorillard, of New York, has teadered the use of one his steam- ships to convey them thither, They will just be in time for the grand inauguration ball at the Stockton House on the sth of July. A MILITARY ENCAMPMENT, ‘The Gray Reserves, @ crack military regiment of Philadelphia, will encamp here during the summer, and the boys will have a nice time with their gay uniforms, drills, and reviews and dress parades. ‘Their gay trappings will throw all the blue swallow tails, brass buttons and all, in the shade among the ladies fair at the hops and balls this season. LO¥S OF MUSIC. There will ve plenty of good music this season, Besides McClurg’s military i, Which I understand will accompany the Gray Reserves, Mark Hassler’s band wili be at Congress Hail, the Germania orches- tra at the Columbia House, Dodworth’s band at the Stockton House and Beck’s Philadelphia brass band, I believe, at the Sea Breeze Hotel. sides all these Miss Susan Galton’s English Opera Troupe will give a season of comic opera in the splendid hall of the Sea Breeze House, and I hear of apy namber of con- certs projected, MORE HOTELS NEEDED. The erection of the mammoth Stockton House will not interfere withthe popularity or success of the otuer hotels, but will compel them to meet the in- creasing demands of the New Yorkers for more room by enlarging the old and erecting new ones for the crowds who will fock hither from curtosity and for pleasure. Already a number of smaller hotels have been erected since last season, such as Reigei’s New Cottage, on Ocean street; Proskauer’s Maison Dore, on the corner of Washington and Jack- son streets; a new house on the opposite corner; Faucitt’s House, on Beach street, and the old ones enlarged, as the Sea Breeze House and Centre House. Even these additions have pot been suficient to meet the growing demand for more accommoda- tions at the Cape. Between forty and fifty new cot- tages Nave been erected .since last season, and poe, others are under contract to be erected this fall. Congress Hall will be enlarged at the close of this Season by the addition of a new wing along Perry street, which will make it one of the handsomest houses on the island and a formidable rival to the Stockton House. The location of Congress Hall, on a high bluff, with its beantful ES jawn, will always make 1t popular. It has been partially re- iurnished since last season, and is still under the management of Mr. J. Frank Cake. ‘The United States Hotel, which was opened on the Ist day of June by Mr. Aaron Miller, is a handsome looking structure, situate corner Washi and Decatur streets, A fine view can be had from the parlor or porch of all the promenades and drives aiong the main thoroughfare, Washington street. The Columbia House will be opened on the 24th inst by Mr. George Bolton, of Harrisburg, Pa, All the old porches have been removed and new ones substituted. All the upper porches are e, thus allowing the guests on the upper floors to have their windows opened at night. A new kitchen, separate from the main building, has been erectea. One of the best improvements made Is the erection of a fish house at Sewell’s Point, 80 named in honor of General Sewell, superintendent of the railroad. A point of land jutting out here between the ovean and the Sound forms a little cove, where the fishing 1s good and sailing safe, Mr. Faucitt will keep at the fish house sailing vessels and fishing tackle for those who desire to catch their own . and for those who do not desire that trouble gd of live fish will be on hand, out of which a plamp Diue fish, or bass, or porgie, or mackerel, or sheeps- head can be taken, pierced and placed upon the live coals immediately, ala Frangais, Fish served w in this manner taste so differently that one shoul never eat them otherwise. It is a fortunate thu that Bergh’s jurisdiction does not extend down thi far. A line of stages wili run every hour between Sewell’s Point and the island, about two and a half mies along a nice, hard, level beach, refreshing and invigorating to the health seeker, and not too long for “ens Pleasure hunter. Clambakes will be a feature here ais. THE FUTURE OF CAPE MAY. ‘The secret of this awakening from the Rip Van Winkie sieep under which Cape May has labored 80 long is Uaat the Control of the property and asfairs of the island has passed out of the hands of the old Togies who came so near blasting it, and now capi- tal, skill and New York enterprise have taken charge ofit. It 18 now but three hours from Philadeipnia and seven from New York, and tis time can be re- duced if necessary, since the whole road irom Cape May to New York is now virtually, though not osten- sibly, one company, the same men composing and controlling both corporations. The brains ‘ae skill and enterprise that fad the pluck to invest a half million of dollars In the Stockton House and its surrounding grounds will take care that their interests do not suffer for want of rapid means of communication with the communities whose pa- tronage is «desired. Your correspondent lately pa: over the new road opened by the same par- es from Long Branch to Camden, in three hours, and there is no reason Why atrain could not run from New York or the Brancy im from five and a half to #ix hours, and in my Opinion it will be done before another season passes around. At ali events, Cape May sends a cordial greeting to New York and bids her weicome. INTERESTING SUMMER READING FOR THE WATERING PLACES.

THE COURTS. SUPREME COURT—CiRCUIT. Action to Recover Price of Goods Sold. Before Judge Tappen, Charles Doherty vs. Herman Siefke,—On the 20th of June, 1868, plaintiff alleges that ne sold defendant $200 worth of brick, which he had not paid for. This action was brought to recover that sum, with in- terest. The defence set up was a general dental, with the exception of an admission that the sum of $200 had not been paid the plaintit. Defendant testified on the trial that there had been some nego- tiations relative to the purchase of the brick, bat that the sale fell through in consequence of a dis- agreement in the price. ‘The jury returned a verdict for the plaintit! for $214, the fuii amount claimed. Jenks and Ward {or plainti®; Cherry and Dickinson for defendant. The Linbilities of Express Companies. Alphonse Frederick vs, Elmore P. Ross.—The de- fendant is the President of the Union Express Com- pany. On the 1ith of September the company tation to Manchester, N. H., by way of Boston, six- teen boxes, containing 320 panes of stained glass, which the defendant represents received for transpor- which, as plaintiff alleged, the company fer an ade- quate consideration agreed to convey to its desti- nation. The boxes were all marked “This side up, with care.” Nothwithstanding this precaution 1: panes of the glass, vaiued at $390, were broken before they reached Manchester, in consequence of the boxes not having been kept right side up, and of having in various ways been carel handled by defendants. ‘The defendants admitted that they undertook to for- ward to Boston the glass in question, where it was to be delivered to other parties to be forwarded to Manchester, on condition that they should not be re- sponsible for any damages that might mapyes to the £ ass during its transportation. It was claimed also the defendants that after they had taken the glass to Boston they delivered it eeiainih, who afterwards put it in possession of parties who con- veyed it to New Hampshire, The giass, as (e- fendants claimed, was not injured while in their possession, The defendants put in evidence on the trial a receipt on which was a written pro- viso to the effect that the plaintiff took the risk him- self in shipping the goods, The Court charged the jury that if there was a contract made of the kind set forth by defendants the plaintiff could not re- cover, but that the paper introduced for the pur- pose of showing that the shipper of the goods as- sumed the risk must be supported by verbal testi- mony. If the goods were shipped at the risk of ihe plaintiff on the understanding that they were to be carried the side up that the shipper intended, as in- dicated by the mark on each box, then it was charged {$ was incumbent upon the defendants to show that the goods had at all times remained that side up while in their possession and control. The jury returned a verdict for plaintiff for $379 35. Suit Against the Union Ferry Company. Benedict Kraus vs, The Union Ferry Conpany.— On the 19th of October, 1868, defendants, as plainuil alleges, received for transportation from New York to Brookiyn by Hamilton ferryboat a horse and wa- gon belonging to plaintiff, After the horse was driven upon the boat 1t was, through the carelessness of the defendants, thrown down, and so much injured as to be thereafter absolutely worthless. ‘This action was brougnt to recover $500 damages.

The design is to afford a shelter and asylum for sneh destitute females as may seek the ac- commodation and protection of the promo- ters of the enterprise, which, thus far, has been successful In its workings, A more spacious build- ing is required, however, it is now found, to meet the numerous applications for admission. A sub- scription list has been started, with favorable indi- cations of being filled, in aid of the fund to purchase @ site and erect thereon a suitable home. ‘fhe oficers of the ty in question are as follows:— President, Mra. 8.

ADVENTURES OF A BURGLAR,—A young English burglar, giving the name of Jonn Williams, entered the residence of the Rey, Dr. Wells, 92 South Third street, Williamsburg, and reached the bedroom of Mrs, Wells before he was discovered by the family. Mrs, Wells awoke and found the wretch crouching like a tiger by her bedside, and immediately alarmed the family by her screams. The burglar then fled down s.airs, and succeeded in gaining the yard, when he jumped the fence, and entered the rear basement of the residence of Mr. C. R. Brown, No. 89 South Second street. Meanwhile, a son of the Rev. Mr. Wella exe. notice to the police, and oficers Forbes chester, With private watchman Jobn Waish Y, JUNE 23 1869.—TRIPLE SHEET. and several citizens started in pursuit of the villain. . While examining the rear of Dr. Wells’ residence they observed @ light in the back basement of Mr. Brown’s residence and rightly conjectured that the object of their pursuit had taken refuge there. ‘They then surrounded Mr. Brown’s residence, and, after arousing the family, entered it, and after a long search found the marauder stowed away in an empty barrel in the cellar. He showed @ fighting dis- position when the officers came upon him, and a citizen (Mr. James Ferrall), fearing that he was armed, struck him on the head with a club, knock- ing him into a quiet state of mind. He was then taken to the Fourth street station house and lo¢ked up. A screwdriver and jacknife were found im his possession. Justice Voorhies subsequently com- mittei Williams to the county jail to await trial on two charges of burglary, to one of which he pleaded guilty. ‘ SUBURBAN INTELLIGENCE. NEW JE Hoboken. WAR ON THE DoGs.—The long wished for raid on the dogs resident in Hoboken has at length been made. In accordance with an order from the Mayor yesterday the pound was thrown open to all unmuzzied canines, In the space of @ few hours the keeper had nearly thirty dogs in bondage. Only one person was wounded during the battle. The son of the poundkeeper, in his sapguinary en- deavors to capture one of the necessary antnials, jumped on some broken bottles, and two inches of glass ran into his right foot, cutting it in a frightful manner. He was taken toa drug store, where the wound was dressed and pronounced very serious. Hudson City. THE Vore ON DELEGATIONS.—At the Methodist Episcopal Church in this city the vote stood thus:— For lay delegations, 26; against them, 30, A DANGEROCS PRISONER.—On Monday evening the keeper of Hudson county jail discovered a priso- ner moving towards the iron gate with some bulk under hisarm. He rushed, with some attendants, to prevent escape, but the prisoner retreated to his cell, He was quickly followed, however, and when he dropped the weight he had held in his hand, it was found to be an iron lever, well calculated to force a lock.

THE NEWARK AND New YoRK RatLRoap.—A guar- Tel is brewing between the municipal authorities of this city and the above named railroad company. It appears that no vigorous exertions are to be made by the company in protecting the citizens from accidents by the erection of suitable bridges and walls at the places where the iine of railroad cuts the streets. The Common Council, however, have appointed a committee to take such measures as will compei the railroad makers to con- struct such walls and bridges. ‘The stockholders of the line contend that by the privileges of thetr char: ter they can constract their road and bridges, un- trammetied by city authorities, and in this position the hostile forces remain for the present.

MELANCHOLY SuictpE—A YOUNG Man Bows His Brains Ovr.—About seven o'clock on Monday evening the inmates of the honve of Mr. Mathew Armstrong were alarmed by the report of a pistol in one of the apartments. Instant search was made, and on coming to the room in which Mr. Mathew Armstrong, Jr., th been, they found him iying on the floor, his face covered with blood and a pistol in his right hand. When they opened the door he ts said to have exclaimed, “Oh, send for a physician; I’ve shot myself.” Several physicians were instantly summoned to the place, but all their efforts would have been vain, as the young man was mortally wounded. The ball passed through the right ear and penetrated the skull in an upward direction. 1n a few minutes the floor was covered with blood, and nothing could be done to relieve him. He was placed on a bed, where he lingered in agony till oue o'clock yester- day morning, when he expired. It is rumored by some that the deceased shot himself accidentally, but the report lacks proof and probability. | An th- quest wiil be held to-morrow by Coroner Warren. ‘The unfortunate deceased was twenty-one years of age and was unmarried.

BANK.— Last Wednes ay the officials in this bank, im endeay- oring to open the safe, as usual, found the lock strained, #0 that it would not work freely, While a locksmith was being procured the greatest anxiety prevatied for the safety of many thousands of dollars and government bonds stored in the safe. At length it was opened and ail the money and papers were found on hand, Examination showed that long and vigorous exertions had been made to open ii. The dial plate bad been removed and @ paper card and plate of stecl substituted, But for the careless- ness of the burgiars in arranging the latter the fault would not have been discovered until the moneys were gone.

About noon on Wednesday, the loth inst., ine dead body of a Frenchman named Pierre Gette, a jeweller, residing in Market street, Newark, N. J., was fouud floating in the Passaic river opposite the city dock, Marks of violence were found on the body. It being ascertained that the deceased had left home the Sat- urday night previous, and was seen in com- pany with two men under circumstances somewhat suspicious, an imquest was ordered, and commenced by Coroner John F. Chase on Friday, After taking some testimony the case was adjourned till yesterday, when it was resumed at the Court House. Anna Gette, the wife of deceased, testified that her husband left home sober, and some hours after- wards she observed him in company with two Ame- ricans, She further set forth that her husband was always sober. Dr. D. L. Dodd, County Physician, testified that he made ‘a post-mortem examination of the body of deceased; there was a wound on the head as if made by a club; the edge of the wound was rough; it was about an inch in length; there was a perforated depression of the outer table of the skull. Dr. Dodd closed by saying that in his opinion the immediate cause of death was drowning and the remote cause a blow. Peter McEnrce, residing on Bleecker street, tes- titled that he saw the body of deceased when it was taken out of the water on the 16th iast.; about a quarter before one o’clock a man came along and looked at the body and remarked to wit- ness that that was little ‘Frenchy;? the same individual further said that he was with deceased on Saturday night, and that three of them went down and got a boat; but the little Frenchman was so G—d d—d drunk that they ieft him and went on a little excursion; witness heard the man remark as he turned away, “I don’t care a G—d d—n how soon they arrest mne.?? Rebecca Cohen, a little girl, of No. 167 Commerce street, testified that she saw Gette go down the street about half-past ten on Saturday night; the two men were sober, and Gette so drung that the others had to hold him up. i William Weis, who keeps a boarding house av No. 16 Railroad place, deposed that he knew a man named Michael Savage, a person of bad character; knew that Gette and Savage bad quarrelled and that the latter had beat Gette: some parties told witness that Savage had said that he would kill Gette; on one ‘occasion ‘the haa cnt Gette severely im the fore- head, Shortly after four o'clock the jury returned the following verdict:—“That the said Pierre Gette came to his death in the city of Newark, on the 12th day of June, A.D. 1869, by violence at the hands of some person or persons to the jury unknown.” The Coroner has becn unable to discover who the two men are that were with Gette the night of the 12th. ‘The police likewise have failed in the matter. It is now suggested that Mayor Peddie offer a suit- able reward and see what effect that will have on the faculties of the detectives. Some say that it would work like a charm. Gette was about thirty- two years of age, served gallantly through the re- bellion and leaves a family of three behind, WESTCHESTER COUNTY.

A Wife Brings Suit to Recover Her Husband, {From the Chicago Tribune, June 20.) Atew days since a rather peculiar mater was bronght to (he cognizance of the Superior Court. It ‘was expected, of course, that there would be a pub- lie hearmg, which would develop the whole case. It would seem, however, that the service of a writ has caused a subsidence of the cause of further litt gation, wherefore it is presumable that the ex parte statement under oath of the chief party in interes: istrae, On Tuesday a writ of habeas corpus was sued out by Anna L. Sheldon, who sought, by the aid ot the court, to procure the body oi her husband, George H. Shelcon, In ber application for the writ she made substantially the following statement:— “Anna L. Sheldon 1s the wife of George H. Sheldon, who 1s at present an invalid, suffering from a severe attack of paralysis, That he was taken ill of said disease on or about the 6th day of May, 1800. at Cedar Rapids, lowa, where he was residing with his wife. At once the wife empioyed three competent and trustwortny physicians, who attended upon him for the space of two days after the date mentioned, at which time they directed him to be placed in an insane asylum, he being at the time partially deranged. Under this advice, on the 16th day o1 May last, she caused her husband to be removed to the State Asylum of the State of iowa, at Mount Pleasant, she delivering him to the care of Dr. Mark Ranney, the superintendent. who informed her that he cold not then direct her as to ime time which woud necessarily expended Mm vring- ing about a recovery of the patient to his reason and health, Mrs. Sheldon thus left her husband at the asyium, returned to her home, and thence came to her brother's house, haviog it im taimd to return aud move her spouse frou: his place of duress at tie earliest proper time. On the 3d day of June, 1369, she conciuded that it Was time to visit Mount Pleas- ant, to bring the husband home, whereupon she pro- cured ner ticket and, being about to start, learned that he had already been, without her knowledge, removed to Chicago, by Lhas P. Sheldon, his brother. Having ascertained this fact she went to tne board- ing house, on the corner of Sangamon and Randolph streets, where the brother resided, ana where her husband was at the thine. She saw Elias P. Sheldon and his wite, and requested to be allowed to see her husband, which right was dented her. But on the Soth of May she did see her husband, at the room of Elias P, Sheldon, his brother, but then only in the hearing and presence of the brother or his wife, and since that date she avers that she has not been permitted to see him only when one of the relatives is present, and then only for the length of time they choose toallow. Mrs. Sheldon avers that her husband needs the greatest care in attendance and nursing in order to restore him to heaith, and that she 18 anxious and greatly desires to have the ol and care of him, and that at her father's house there are means fii and convenient to this end; nevertheless, the brother refuses to allow her to have him at her home. She states, in this con- nection, that prior to the illness of George H. 5! don, her husband, for some months the brother Elias had not been friendly to George, and had not spoken to him when they met, and that her husband greatly desires to be removed trom his and his wite’s custody, RATHER SHARP ON A NeW YorkeR.—We are in- formed that Captain A, C.
