Dull season at Niagara --A letter from Niagara Falls to the Boston Transcript says: The two principal hotels here — the Cataract and International — are literally deserted.--They look more like a couple of graveyards, lacking the tombstones, than houses of gaiety, feasting and merriment. I am told that on the 20th of June, last year, there were 276 arrivals at the hotels; whereas, this year, on the same day, the arrivals numbered only 26. The International is said to have made $95 000 last year but this year its receipts are not absurd to the reat, for hardly to its current experience The drivers of carriages are thankful for the smallest of favors. They are constantly endeavoring is tempt you late their vehicles by proffered of low fares. They will take you "All branch Gos. island" for 11 cents or allow you to ride for 10 cents an hour instead of the usual charge of $1 Carriages are frequently proffered for $2 the entire afternoon
