TnE DISASTER AT NIAOARAM WAXis. -A dispatch from Niagarh Falls, September 12th, says: This afternonn, while a terrible wind was blowing up the gulf, two men yVfare discovered in a small boat in the rapids south of the Three Sis ters. They werestruggling depei-ate ly with the waves bit human power was utterly unavailing. Hundreds of persons were on Goat Island and saw them, but of course were unable to render any aorsistance. The terror stricken men rowed with frantic efforts to the very verge of the precipice, and finally wont over, still clinging to their oars. It seems Mrr Cooper, the Postmas ter at the town of Chippawa, on the Canada -side, two miles above the Falls, started with Prank Leutze, the ferryman, to cross the river in a small boat'. Usually the course Is to pull about two am iles up the river' before attemipting to cros, but oin this ocea sion the uni\>rtunate men seen to have imagined that the heavy wind blow ing i) stream would counteract the force of the current and consetiuently attempted to cross in it direct line. The result was the same as it had been on three former occasions when similar attempts have been made, and their lives piaid the forfeit of this mis take. The~ sad ending of this last mad attempt should teach a lesson of care fallnoss to all who live along tho riv er's banik.. The rapids of the Niagara atre too awful in .their porer to be tri lled with. It is singular that Leutze, the~ iferrymiani who hiad croesod and re crossed a hundred times in all kida of weather, should have'so . sadly mis judged the force of the current, and over-esatimated to such a de'gree the strength of the wind. .
