To this point, which is within the village of Niagara Falls, possibly, many visitors will first come. We speak of it last, after seeing all that lies above and at the final plunge of waters, mak ing it our point of departure for the lower river. The Park embraces some twelve acres was formerly owned by a private com pany, but was secured in lt85 br the State of New' York, and no" forms part of the great Free Keservation, which includes, besides Prospect I'ark. the American Falls, Goat Island, Luna Island and others of the group, and halt the Canadian Fall! The reservation reaches from the Suspension Foot Bridge below, to the shore aud islands above the H alls, taking in a narrow strip upon the river bank extending for some two and one-half miles to the old French Landing, and includes all lands below as well as above the preci pice. The views from Prospect Paik need not be commented upon; thev are jrrand. While its pavillions, walks, fountains, greensward, shrubs and fo liage trees make it a model picnic ground or loungers' paradise. Prospact Point, the farthest extremity of the r ark and next the American Fall, is carefully protected by, a neat wall of stone, extending along.the edge of the gorge for some distance. Just above the Poi t and within the Park, is "Henne pin's View." This is one of the best general view points possible. xatnar .Louis Hennepin was the prest and historian who, with the ex pedition of CUevalier Robert de La Salle, in 1678, ascended the St. Lawer- ence, established a trading-post at the mouth of the Niagara Kiver, visited tiie t alls and launched the first vessel that ever eailed the Great Lakes. Hen nepin puwisbed the hrst description of M lagara in his "New Discovery," 1597. k'urliar thon tV?a Vi Vn , - "VT i (spelled "Ongiara") are indicated upon Sanson's Map o Canada, publish ed at Paris in 1657 The Fails had also been indicated on Cham plain's map in 1632. . H rom the Park an inclined rail-rav moves cars irom the brink to the wat .... er's edge, or the same may be accom- piisneo. oy a nigtit or some three hun dred stairs, within the same structure that runs the cars. The4distance by it is three hundred and thirty feet on the incline; in perpendicular the height of the gorge at this point is one hundred and seventy-five feet, so to one who makes the ascent on loot, the stairs seem anything but a night, and the cars, which are raised and Jowered by water-power, by meanx of a strong ca ble three hundred feet long, running over steel wheels, need never be shunn ed as unsafe. At the foot of the incline are the dressing-rooms for the "Shadow of the Kock," a name given to the entrance under the Americau Fall at this point, and platforms lea ling to the landing of the "Maid of the Mist," not the origi nal of that name but a successor, which from this starting point runs up to the Horseshoe Fall, thence to ihe Canadian shoie and back again. The passai?e is thrilling in the extreme, and exhilara ting beyond comparts. Strangers ap proach each other tor companionship 'mid the awful presence of the torrent, impelled by an impulse felt in time of danger, or in self congratulation, as the little craft steams iu to the very mists of the Falls. THE RIVEB BELOW THE FALLS. Flows through a gorge which it has itself excavated during the infinite years that have elapsed since it began its retrograde movement at (Queens town, seven miles below the present cataract. After passing the Falls the river narrows wonderfully, and takes an abrupt turn to the righ. This gorge varies in width from two hundred to four hundred yards, and correspond, in depth to the surface of the river with the height of the b'alls. It is this that makes the first view of Niagara too often disappointing. One who is unacquainted with the form of the riv er expects to see the Fall pouring down from above as be would enter the Yoi-emite Valley, and looks aloft for the Bridal Veil. 'One gets this view from the bottom of the trorue. at the foot of the inclined railway, or from the deck of the "Maid of Mist." and it is safe to say few leave Niagara unre quited for tne time spent in a more ex tended view than the firtt reveals. But below the surface of the river flow the yet troubled waters at vary ing depths and speed, descending one hundred feet in the passage of seven miles through the gorge. Between the Falls and the Whirlpool Kapids the depth varies lrom seventy-five to two hundred feet. The United States Geo logical Survey have made sounding!, as near the Whirlpool Kapids as th ty dare go, finding constantly increasing dep'b of water, until one hundred ana seven ty-nine feet was reached, and that some distance above the head of the rapids. At the Whirlpool liapids it is estimated at two hundred aud fifty-feet and in the Whirlpool, four hundred feet. This represents the depth of tne water alone. The accumulation of stone, gravel, shell and debris, which. during countless ages, have fallen into the gorge, lie above the original bot tom which would be but for these as deep again. Singularly enough, ou the surface immediately Usiow the Falls, the water, abide from the foam, give little sign of their recent, great agita tion. The current, when ail is tavoia- ble. rues at the rate or six to seven miles per hour; but below tne suriace and at a depth of ttiir.y to forty feet its f.ped is doubled, su say ti-e l-arnrd in such matteis, a theory which leadi- lv exDlains the fact that tiuibrts ai.d other floating o' iects which pass over the Falls, are raiely louud uutii .he are thrown up by the mad iuah ot tnr of the Whirlpool. May not the lact that many bodies which nave beei known to take the piuuge. and have never been recovered, be due to this under-current carrying them beneath some rock or other obstruction upon the bottom of the gorge ?

CORBETT THE CHAMPIOf; Sullivan Knocked Out in Twenty-first Bound. tht THE CALIT0EIIIAF WINS $35,00C McAuliffe Whips Myer in the Light Weight Contest in Fonrten Konnili Dixon, the Colored Wonder, De feats Slcelly with Ease in Eight Rounffa. New Orleans, Sept. 8. The result ol the third night of the fistic carnival was a surprise to many, and resulted iu Sul livan being knocked out by Corbett in the twenty-first round. The building was packed with a tremendous crowd. It was announced that Sullivan weighed 212 pounds and Corbett 187. Sullivan was the first to appear but was soon followed bv his adversary. The gloves were weighed, and then the sec ends tossed for corners, Corbett winning JAMES J. CORBETT. amd sending Sullivan to the unlucky Iseat occupied by Myer rad Skelly. Time was called, and what took place is best told by the following description of the fight: I Round 1 This was a ridiculous exhibition of Sprize fighting. Sullivan made no less than seven feints with his left for Corbett, but Cor bett ran around the ring each time and no blow was struck. j Round 2 The big fellow stood up leisurely and looked at Corbett and then let go a left on Corbett's shoulder and a clinch took place. Another clinch followed, and Corbett tried to land his left on Sullivan's face. ; Round 3 Sullivan missed a left hander for the jaw and then touched him on the stomach. The first good blow struck was by Corbett. who ran in on top of a run by Sullivan. Cor bett also reached two lefts on Sullivan's body- Whenever Sullivan led Corbett ducked ajnd lie could not touch him. Round Sullivan made two runs at Cor bett. but Jim ran away and no blow was struck. Sullivan continued to run in on him. out Jim's feet were too good for the big fel- ow. Corbett let his left go lightly on John's (face. John laughed and returned his left on Corbett's back. Round 5 In this round Sullivan caught Corbett a fairly hard blow on the chin, but Corbett clinched. Sullivan missed with the left and made a rush, and Corbett went at him. What followed is hard to describe. Cor bett smashed him with right and left on his to math and face, and had the big fellow lose bleeding in no time. The great cham ion became so surprised that some persons said be was groggy. I Round 6 Corbett jumped around like a cat and worried the big fellow, getting in two light blows on the stomach. Sullivan missed one left hander for the face, but otherwise kiothing was done in the round. i Round 7 Two slaps on the body, one from each, opened this round. Corbett let his left Wo on John's stomach and gave him two good niacfeLB ou l lit. ia:9 mm iu. icii. uu L v v more soon after. Sullivan's nose was bleed ing again freely. Corbett ran in and rushed Sullivan to the ropes, letting go right and left on the big fellow's body. Sullivan could make bo return. From the eighth to the fifteenth round noth ing of importance took place, each round be. ing a repetition of the other. Sullivan did most of the leading, but Corbett dodged and ran away from the vicious leads, giving in re turn frequent blows on the head and stomach. doing but little damage, as the blows were light- Round 15 Sullivan went in to do Corbett this time and rushed Jim three times. The Californian's long reach held John at bay, and the big fellow could not break, in under the guard. On the contrary Corbett's left found Sullivan's face twice. In the two more rushes by Sullivan Corbett held him off, and plunked John L. on the ribs and stomach with his left. Round 16 A mutual rush occurred at the opening of this round. Sullivan fell short with a right hander and Corbett hit him on the nose lightly. This Corbett followed u with a jab in the stomach and two on the nose with the left. Sullivan appeared to be getting desperate. He went at Corbett cautiously, but hard. Corbett was not there. John L. seemed to be worried. Round 17 Nothing but fibbing during this round. The house had a good deal to laugh at, but nothing to get excited over. . Round 18 Corbett's cleverness in tapping 'Sullivau and getting away was greatly ad mired, and when he jabbed the big fellow four times in the face in succession the spectators raised a howl. Sullivan here got in a left oa Corbett's breast. Then Corbett touched Joha L. up for two right handers on the body amid more howls. Round 19 On coming together Sullivan hit Corbett on the neck with the left pretty hard, and Corbett countered with the left on the stomach. Sullivan missed a left meant for the face, and Corbett laughed at him. At that Sullivan's face took on a savage smile and he chased Corbett around the ring. Corbett again came forward and landed his left on Sullivan's stomach and face, and bis right on the big fellow's stomach. Round 20 Sullivan's left struck Corbett's breast as he came to the centre of the ring but only two seconds occurred before Corbett sailed into him. With right and left Corbett jbaught Sullivan on both sides of the head close to the ropes and this same dose of the Califor bian's was repeated within another second. Corbett followed this up with seven more blows of the same kind and Sullivan could not rotect himself. Sullivan could not get in a ingle blow in return. He was plainly groggy ind weak. Corbett was very fresh and cons ent at the sound of the gong, at whicn tim (be was smashing Sullivan at a great rate, left ,nd right, on both sides of the head. Round 21 and last In regard to this trifling ninute snd a halt, which decided the heavy- veight' championship of the world, a great ieal might be said even in that short time. I hat the contest would end in that round no nan present believed. Sullivan came from tis corner in the same shape that he had bown for a dozen rounds before. He contin -d to do the "edging in" and Corbett foi jwed his original tactics of "edging away" i uis sort of trade was not going on long, not ' tore than ten seconds, when Corbett jumped itck, rushed forward, hit John on the nose ad John was dazed. Corbett went at him irther and the same old nose was again uashed, and more blood came out. John oked astounded and Corbett jumped back, tddeuly he returned to the fray and Sullivan t a crack oa the side of the head that made in close his eyes. Corbett was on top of bin i no time. Left hander on the side of the t-ad and right hand on tb other, poor John . -Sullivan became an unconscious, beaten Corbett went down on him again. A right on the ear and a left on the Jaw settled the business and the championship. He was knocked out, pure and simple. His seconds had to come to him and assist him to his corner. His handlers poured water over him and placed am monia to his nose to bring him to. On coming to he said: "Say, am I licked? Did that young fellow do it?' On being told that such was the case, he said nothing until Corbett came over to shake bands with him. John eot tu, took Corbett's hand and said: "I am glad that the championship has been won by an American." This speech brought dowm the house, and the audience yelled themselves hoarse. Mc An litre and Myer. New Orleans, Sent. 6. Although the first fight of the carnival was not to be- n until 9 o clock or thereabouts, the lympic club house was besieged before yesterday afternoon by hundreds of men who live in this city and all parts oi tne union. It was 9.10 p. m. when McAuIiire en tered the ring accompanied by his hand lers and was only moderately applauded. Myer, who followed a minute later, was loudly cheered, showing that he was the favorite with a large majority. t MCAunse cut out the pace at the start. and fought fast and furious, and it was soon evident that the "Streator cyclone" was not a match for his former victor. Myer depended on his right, but Mc Auliffe gave him no opportunity to use it, keeping him well on the defensive. Ihe nght, though one sided, was ftub bornly contested by Myer for the first half of the battle. After that it was evident that he must lose. In the fifteenth round Myer was rather weak and groggy. Terrific infighting took place, both men landing heavily. McAuliffe ran Myer and pounded him ith left and right for the stomach and face. Myer went down and stayed for six seconds. He arose very groggy and McAuliffe sailed into him again. Myer could make no defense, and McAuliffe with right and left smashed the Illinois chap on the jaw, and Myer went down for the last time. He tried to get up, but his strength was gone, and he fell on the lower rope and then to the floor, a beaten man. The referee declared McAuliffe the winner and the vast assemblage went wild over the lightweight champion's victory. , Dixon and Skelly. New Orleans, Sept. 7. When Dixon and Skelly weighed in at 3 o'clock yes terday afternoon, Skelly was under the limit of 117 1-2 pounds and Dixon was heavier. More than 5,000 were present at the Olympic club to view the fight. There were about 400 negroes in the au dience. The fight was for the champion ship and $12,500, and was easily won by Dixon in eight rounds. Skelly was no match for the colored boy, who won as liked, and gladdened the hearts of the colored contingent in the audience, who were present in large numbers. Dixon has fought many winning mills in professional ranks, while his opponent had equally as good a record m the ama teur contest. Dixon had experience cleverness and gameness, and Skelly was known for skill and a dogged determma tion to do or die. The match was for the biggest sum ever contested for by ban tam weights. The odds on Dixon were tempting and they were taken by hundreds ot betters, who risked a few dollars at 3 to 1. For a time during the day the o lds were 5 to 8, but later they went back to the or iginal figures of 3 to 1, with Dixon a pronounced favorite. MR. BLAINE'S LETTER.

Fic- '. :e .-Ksue of the greatest con sequence is the 'at' ff on imports, and it will continue to be until a settlement is effected by a majority so large that it will be tantamount to general acqui esence. The Republicans are aggressive on this subject. Two years ago they passed a general enactment known as the McKinley tariff, which for a time failed to meet with popular approval and was regarded with a certain degree of distrust by those who had always upheld the protective system. But a powerful reaction has came in consequence of the vindication of McKinley tariff by exper ience. It is found to have worked ad mirably, and within the last year has produced a greater volume of business, internal and external, export and import, than the United States ever transacted before. Notwithstanding the character and extent of the opposition to it, agri culture is remunerative, manufactures are prosperous and commerce is moie flourishing than at any previous time, thus vindicating the McKinley tariff by impressive and undeniable facts. Second- - When the principle of ' re ciprocal trade was first proposed to be introduced into the tariff system the Democrat, showed as much generous ap preciation of the question and gave it their support as long as the Republicans refused to accept; but when the Repub licans came to approve it the Democrats vanished, and instead of favoring, we find the Democratic national convention passing a resolution hostile to the sys tem. But in spite of Democratic op position we have attained, through reci procity, a new and valuable trade and the system has demonstrated its inanv advantages. Third With all its calamities the war brought us one great blessing national currency. There are many who will say it was worth the cost of thewai to bring about so auspicious a result to capital and labor. Prior to the war we had the worst currency system of any enlight ened nation in the world. Since the clost of the war all this is different. Every paper dollar that cir culates among the people has the United States behind it as a guarantee. All the banks that exist are under the control of the national government, and if they fail as financial institutionTthe government has taken care that tteir Dills shall be paid by securities deposited in govern ment vaults.
