WHERE'S MAJ. KELLY.-Si


WHERE'S MAJ. KELLY.-Sinee the
amieable adjustment Of the "Dlack
! Warrior affair we have heard moth
ing of our friend the Major, and we
were on the eve Of presuming that he
had gone ''ihto green and yellow
melancholy The following item
from the South Western has turned
him up
Among the visitors to our town last
week was Major J. a. Kelly, one Of
the survivors Of The Lopez expedition
against Cuba. The Major, besides
being one Of the higi-priests of the
tilliblsters, is a correspondent Of the
Picayune. We surmise that he is
now engaged in some great military
enterprise.
You have no right Mr. South Yves
tern, to surmise anything in reference
to the Majors movements. II you
know anything, why say it out at once.
And ifyou know nothing, what's the
use Of your fruitless ondeavourto lead
the public mind astray, in reference to
The Majors object in the South Yves
tern District
Tue GREAT SEA SEnpENr,-Capt.
Seabury, of The ship Mechanics Own,
Which arrived here on the 18th inst,
informs us, that on February 1st. in
lat. 40 g., lon, 80 40 w, he saw
something lying on the water, with its
head out, which very much resembIod
a serpent. When first seen, it was
forward Of the beam of the ship, about
fifteen yards distant. The mouth Of
the creature was wide open, showing
two large tusks, about eight inches in
length, and many smaller teeth. The
animal was about lie size Of barrel,
and showed about twelve feet out Of
water when first seen. It was oppar-
ont)y much greater in the middle, rs
il tqSored towards The tail. Its color
wafSlark brown Mosr of the crew
had time to get to The side to see it,
when he settled his body down, and
went off to the windward, with his
head out Of water, making a wake
similar to. an eel Capt. S. thinks
this was u veritable sea serpent.
New Bedford Mercury.
C. All the theories that again and
again have been advanced in answer
to this inquiry, have long since van
ishod before the true doctrine of the
action of external corrosive agents.
The great and all powerful destroyer
of The human teeth is acid, vegetable
or mineral and it matters not whoth-
or that acid is formed in The mouth by
the decomposition Of PARTICLES Of food
left between and around The teeth, or
whether it is applied directly to the
organs themselves; the result is the
same. the enamel is dissolved, cor
rodcd, and the tooth destroyed. Much
very much of the decay in teeth may
be attributed TO the corrosive effects
of acetic acid, which is not only in
common use as coudimont, in the
form Of vinegar, but is generated by
the decay and decomposition of any
and every varlctyof vegetable matter
When we consider how very few per
sons, comparatively, take especial
pains to remove every particle of food
from between and around their teeth
Immediately after eating, can we
wonder that diseased teeth are so
common, and their early loss is 50
frequently deplorcd
THE LATEST WONDER. The Ion
dou correspondent of the New York
Commercial Advertiser says that en-
glnos of 5000 horse power are now
being manufactured at Birmingham,
for a new paddle and screw iron steam

An Angel in the Way.


Fair the downward path is spread,
Love and Light thy coming gree,
Fruit is blushing DER thy head,
Flowers are growing meath thy feet
Mirth and Sin, with tossing hands,
Wave thee on, willing prey
Yet an instant pause-there stands
An angel in the way.
Heed the heavenly warning, know
Fairest flowers thy feet may trip;
Fruits, that like the sunset glow,
Turn to ashes on the lip;
Though the Joys be wild and free,
Though the paths be pleasant, stay
Even mortal eye can see
An angel in the way.
Wilt thou drown in worldly pleasure,
Wilt thou have, like him of old,
Length of days and store Of treasure,
Wisdom, glory, power and goldP
Life and limb shall sickness waste,
Want shall grind thee day by day,
shll to win thee, God hath placed
An angel in the way.
Trusting all on things that perish,
Shall hopeless faith be thine?
Earthly idol wilt thou cherish ?
Bow before an earthly shrine i?
Meet rebuke TO mortal love
Yearning for child of clay,
Death shall cross thy path, and prove
An angel in the way.
