MSS AELLOGG IN AMERICA.

The New York Express says :—" It is always
pleasant to welcome back old friends, the more
particularly so when these old friends have tick-
led the national pride and vanity by earning for
themselves au enviable name and reputation where
praise is hard to earn, and true and kindly criticism
difficult to obtain. So it was that last night the large
audience which gathered to greet Miss Kellogg was
enthusiastic to a degree which must have carried to
her heart the conviction of the regard she is held in
by the American public and the pride we all feel in
her success across the water. In the face of the
most powerful of rivals she has carried off the
crown of victory ; her engagements at the Hay-
market were one continual series of successes, and
she returns to us now with a European reputation
second to almost none. This is a brave thing
for our talented American girl to have done,
and is duly appreciated and applauded by all of
us. Miss Kellogg's musical talent has undergone
no material change since her departure, save that
we find in her voice a better sustained equality,
and in the higher registers a more uniform smooth-
ness and power. The accomplishment of this
latter has rendered the lady's organ as perfect as
the most carping of critics could wish ; before there
was just the least suspicion of the criarde in these
higher notes ; now they are soft, delicate, ha;
monious, and the tout en semble is irresistible.
The New York Evening Post remarks, ,4 The
reception given to Miss Kellogg at the Aca-
demy last evening was one of the most genuine
and hearty ovations ever awarded to an artiste is
this city. The main desire of the immense audience
which crowded every part of the Academy seemed
to be to give to our favourite prima donna a wel-
come worthy of her genius and achievements,
and it must be admitted that this generous desire
was most handsomely fulfilled. Showers of bou-
quets, which evidently were not prepared and paid
for by the management, covered the stage at ever,'
appearance of Miss Kellogg. The applause which
followed each one of her performances was pro-
longed and tumultuous. Of course she was en'
cored again and again, until she sang "Sweet
Home " with a purity and pathos which must have
touched all who heard it—giving to its hackneyed
words a new depth of meaning and an affectionate
expressiveness which they seldom receive. Elbe
selection was a good one, as far as regards its fit-
ness to exhibit the artist's mastery of some of the
most trying feats of vocal execution, which, as usual
with Miss Kellogg, were met bravely, honestly, and
triumphantly."

The New York 7imes thinks the Presideno
salary ought to be raised to $lOO,OOO a year.
In addition to the $l,OOO given by the NcWa
Scotia Government, for the relief of the Red River Or'
ferers, the people of Halifax have contributed $2,000.
The Worcester County (Massachusetts) Free
Institute of Industrial Science was dedicated on Wed°Ssi

A STRANGE DlscovEßY.—An extraordinary
ex-
humation has just been made in the Strip Vein Coal Balls
of Captain Lacy, at Hammondville, Ohio. Mr. Ja nee
Parsons and his two sons were engaged in making t",
bank, when a huge mass of coal fell down, disclosingre
large smooth slate wall, upon the surface of which o'o.
fcund, carved in bold relief, several lines of hierogYl3bied
Crowds have visited the place since the discovery, till
many good scholars have tried to decipher the ebbsl;
racters, but all have failed. Nobody has been
to tell in what tongue the words are written. How n.O
the mysterious writing in the bowels of the earth, wlletoro
probably no human eye has over penetrated ? By vihoout
and when was it written ? There are several lines, 11.',,,
three inches apart, the first line containing twenty !tip
words. Attempts have been made to remove the slaire
wall and bring it out, but upon tapping the wall it goof
forth a sound that would seem to indicate the existence t..°
be
a hollow chamber beyond, and the characters would
destroyed in removing it. At last accounts, Dr. gar „
horn, of Mount Union College, had been sent for to a'
amine the writing.— Wellsville (O.) Union.
