A BOY SWEPT OVER NIAGARA FALLS. An adopted son of Mr. Gibbs, foreman in the Niagara Falls Paper Mill, was taken over the Cataract on Saturday afternoon last. The victim was a promising little boy about eleven years of age, aiul a general favorite with all who knew him.

The Niagara Falls Paper Mill is situated on Bath Island, between Goat Island and the main laud, and the machinery is driven by water power.

On Saturday afternoon a number of men were engaged clearing away the ice which obstructed the flow of water in the rare, and Mr. Gibbs' boy was playing about the vicinity. In one place the race is spanned by a narrow foot-bridge destitute of a railing or other protection on either side and .somehow in crossing this he lost his ballancc and fell into the water. The !current was very .strong, and iti an instant the child was carried out through the

He divided them into three classes—those which moved a second of an arc per year those which moved half a second, and those which moved less. It

tect himself from the coming storm. This aggravation of distrust has been caused mainly by the speech of the King of Sardinia, delivered yesterday, at the opening of the Sardinian Chambers' at Turin. It was known, that this speech had been submitted to Louis Napoleon several days before its delivery, and that its tone might be taken as a test of the designs alike of France and Piedmont.

When it was found, therefore, to be totally in contradiction to the "tranquilising paragraph in the Alonitcur, tho suspicions of the public as to the hollowness of the attempts to bolster up the Bourse became confirmed. i:

The Moniteur had stated that there was nothing in the diplomatic relations of France and Austria to warrant the agitation that had been manifested. The King of Sardinia, on the other hand, savs, "the political horizon is not clear," and that 'a rupture is at hand which will require firmness and resolution.

Coupled with this reported statement some time back, that the Sardinian army might look for active employment in the spring, and the knowledge that King Victor Emmanuel now speaks solely as the mouth piece of France and Russia, little more was wanting to stimulate the worst fears of the capitalists, merchants, and all persons interested in the. maintenance of peacc.

The King of Sardinia, however, is obliged to admit the fact that there is no bal-

money. liven France would have to resort to a fresh loan immediately on commencing war, since she has no surplus for the year and can scarcely venture on increased taxation.

VERY I.ATE AND RELIABLE NEWS FROM PIKE'S PEAK--QUARTZ AND SHOT GOLD GROUND. [From the Omaha Nebraskian, Jan. 28th.]

The European war panic is rapidly increasing. Another drop of one per cent. in the FYench funds, and of a half per cent., ... in the English, occurred yesterday, and Sold ™"c.s'n°fm?an ^V'every capitalist seems endeavoring to pro-! district to he lost of the

We were yesterday favored with a call from Mr. Charles Johnson, direct from the

letters published elsewhere in this section were brought by him Mr. Johnson is a gentleman well-known in this community he has resided several years in this city, and in Bellevue and we can assure our readers that his statements are entitled to the fullest credence. Chief Justice Hall, Colonel Gilmore, and several others of our most prominent and worthy citizens vouch for his veracity.

Mr. Johnson left this city for Cherry Creek the 7th of September last, and reached his destination about the 1st of Novem ber. He prospected in the vicinity of Cherry Creek both north and south of the south fork of the Platte, and in the mountains, until after the middle of December, and started on his return the 19th of last month.

Grold was found almost everywhere on the prairies, one or two miles back from the river and creeks, as well as the immediate banks and beds of the streams. Until after the first of December.nothing but scale gold was found. But about ten days previous to his leaving, quartz and shot gold were discovered in abundance. A specimen of quartz brought in by Mr. Johnson, has been submitted to the inspection of several California miners in this city, who pronounce it more than twice as rich as any they ever saw in that State.

The quartz was discovered on the north side of the Platte about twelve miles from Auraria, near the foot of the mountains, on a small stream known as Ralston's Fort,

of the medical men of France... It was a quarrel between the old man. Allopathy and -the young giant Horaccpathy, iu which the latter was, as far as legal technicalities go, decidedly beaten. In view of the spread of houicepathy in this country, a short ac-, count of this contest cannot fail to interest man}- of our readers.

There is published in Paris a. journal called the Union Medicale, the general character of which is specified by its title. In a recent number of this serial a criticism, written and signed by M. Gallard, appeared^ in which the author, in Reviewing a medical work wxitleii,by M, Magpan, made use of very strong language .against thp system of Hahnemann. Kiuinent hoiricopathic physicians brought an action for slander. Eminent counsel were employed on both sides. Authorities were quoted, trom the days, of Galen and Paracelsus to our time, and precedents brought forward

without number. The decision of the tribunal, however, may be foreseen at orice, for no one in this country at all versed in legal matters would suppose that any tri bunal would entertain an action for slander on such indefinite specifications. The court decided against thc__homoepat.hs,j on the ground that-no one except the defunct Hahnemann was specially mentioned™ the alleged libel, and the unfortunate plaintiffs had to pay the costs as well as lose their case. The matter excited an additional interest, as it was generally understood that the Empress Eugenie is in favor of the homcepathic system.

Hahnemann, who may be considered the founder of tho system, was born at .Meissen, in Saxony, in 1755, and was the son of a poor porcelain painter. Influenced by in irresistible desire to become a physician, he followed the court to Leipsie, where he studied, earninjr, by translating ... C' mil literary work, enough to live on.— Gradually he attained a reputation, many icquaintances, and an excellent practice: but when in the height of his success, and after practicing eight years as an allopath, he discovered, as he thought, that the arthe practised was a humbug, and urged by purely conscientious motives, lie abandoned his profession and returned to literary labors. At this time he made the discovery of honirepathic remedies, and followed

up his system through good and evil report.
