SAD ACCIDENT ON BOARD THE u s. BRIG SohERs.
Yesterday while this vessel was firing salute in
honor TO the memory of the late Commodore Por-
Ter, George Taylor, apprentice, had his arm carried
away by the premature discharge of one of her bat
terry. No surgeon being at present attached TO the
Somers medical aid forthwith procured from
the receiving ship North Carolina, and the unfor-

GRAND CONCERT THIS EvENNa-The vocal and
instrumental for the benefit OF the sufferers
by the Guadalupe earthquake, takes place this
ming at the Tabernacle. The object OF the concert
is charitable and well calculated to draw full house.
But even if this were not so, the eminent a,tistes
who have volunteered their services fail to
MI the house. We notice the names of Mesdames
sutton, MaroncelIi, and Otto together with Rapei-

addition TO these there various other attractions
which may be seen in the bills.

Literary Notices.

THE ARTIST Qor May .)-Ths is decidedly the
most elegant of our fashionable Magazines. The
mens-paper-typ0graphy and entire "get-
ting up" OF the work, unequalled by any perod-
cal in this country. The contents of the present
number afford ample manifestation of the taste,
judgment, and talent of the accomplished editor
who has now the management OF the work. The
article on the Fountains of Paris, which is illus
trated by very beautiful engraving of the "Lady
OF the Mist" is written in an exceedingly graceful
and agreeable style, and embodies great amount
of interesting information The sketches and sto-
res are of varied character and are all well written.
A very attractive and peculiar feature of the
"Artist" consists in the choice selections from
the Italian and French poets, which are trans
lated tby the editor with all that accuracy and
elegance which distinguish his TRANSACTIONS The
plate of the fashions is beautifully engraved, and
has the somewhat novel virtue IN this locality
of being not fancy sketch, but an accurate
representation of the newest Partisan fashions The

with a request that it be hung up in our office tor
names. We are always ready TO help the distressed,
and we shall do so with the greatest pleasure. Here
itis:-
Subscription TO Commcnder Mckenzie.
THs UNDERSIGNED der TO testify thpr sense OF The
high moral iortitude evnced by Gem Mckenzie, IN the
peculiar and trying emergency in whc. he was placed
by the muny board the Somers, where the perform
anoe of duty involved sacrifice of personal
feeling desire to deray the expense to Hhich be has
been subjected in defending himself before the tribunals
OF the country.
No person allowed to subscribe than dollar
In doing this piece of generosity, we do not wish
1t TO be understood, that we entertain the opinion
that the deed of Captain Mckenzie, in 'executng
three human beings on board the Somers, was JUS
titled in any manner. either by law or fact, OF ne
cessity. We shall put down our one Spanish dol
lar, and take those Of others, as a mark of pure
generosity, and to help fellow out of trouble
But at the same time, we shall open subscription
paper for the purpose of raising fund for the benefit
of the aged mother of Small and the poor widow
of Cromwell, the two seamen who were hung on
that sad occasion-the relatives of Midshipman
Spencer not being in want of any pccuniary aid.
This subscription will be limited TO sum, varying
rom one cent 10 one SnWtHg, according 10 the doiy
OF the subscriber.
And further we shall keep list of the names on
both papers, and the record will enable US to ascer-
tain, in some degree, the opinion of the commu-
nifty on the merits of this sad controversy. Both
subscription papers will be opened at this office to-
day, and will be kept open for three months to
come. So stepu and write down.
NAVAL s.-Commanner Mckenzie has
been superseded in his command Of the Somers. A
sufficiently expressive commentary on the bold as
sertions of the Courier and his other newspaper
friends, that the Department regarded him as wor-
thy of the highest regard. Mckenzles friends IN
Philadelphia are talking about presenting him with
pair of gold epauetes and sword. He certainly
needs something just now that he has lost his com
mand
The revocation of Captain Bottoms appointment
was in consequence OF his own application. Hs

appointment, he Immediately went to Washington

Ii lbs now stated that THE recent announcements

IN the State Depsrment-that Mr.. Curtis, the Col

1t is certain that there is an awful struggle in
Washington between the democratic element on
one side, and the wing Con the other-that every
thing is enveloped in mystery-and that it will take
few days, perhaps another new moon, to clear up
things. The Hon. Caleb Gushing was in town all
day yesterday; but he shrugs up his shoulders and
says nothing. We are in an awful state to know
what's what.
