MAGNETISM Rev. Dr. Scoresby, when he
heard of the loss of the Tay leur, an iron ship,
stated to a friend that he would venture, with
out knowing any thing of the ship but her fate,
10 say that she was bui W tn her head To The
north Ii TUNED ont that she was built with
her head to the northeast DIR. Scoresby was
led 10 his conclusion by having observed that
iron has magnetism induced uron it by hammer
in,, and when the bar thus magnelized is turned
in an opposite direction and hammered again,
lne magnetic poles are reversed. If the ship be
bui with her head 10 the north, the hammer
ing will give her magnetic polarity. which
will have certain effect on The magnetic needle
of the compass. Her variation from this cause
NAV be ascertained and so 'ong as The magnetic
pola iiy nf the ship continues the same the com
pass may be as ssrviceab'e as if il were not at
fected by the ship But when the ship sails aud
strains in the Storm the waves in part hammer
her over again and if she sails in an opposite
site direction TO that in which she was bnt, her
magnetic po'es get reversed, and new varla-
ion of the compass is produced. The Tayleur
WAS sailing to the south east when she struck
a rock, by an error of the compass, and hence
DR.. Scorcsby inferred that she must have head
ed in an opposite direction when bnil' and had
her poles changed by the waier-hammer of the
storm

A New Monster.

"A correspondent of the Ba tmore Sun, wr-
ting from Tu'y, Lewis county Missouri, says
| saw yesterday one of the greatest natural Gu
rosites now eytani-a snake with two heads,
one at each extremity. The body is about two
feet 'one and iwo inches in diane er in the center.
The snake is we'll formed and gradually tapers
TO each end with Two perfect heads in every
respect But ihe mos, novel thing to witness was
its actions towards The gentleman that caught it,
running one way with AS much ease apparently
as the o'her, with both tongues out, each raging
apparently with anger. have no doubt many
OF your readers viii look upon this as false, ia
snake story. but it is fact, and can be vouched
fol by many of our most respectable citizens"
This is doubtless true. One Of the same Gu
rious animals was on exhbiatf~SF Albany, in
this state, few days since, and in magnitude
it ouslripped this little monster of Missouri be-
yond all comparison And what is more slngu-
lar in our A hany doub' e. headed snake was the
fact, that each respective head had an inscription
on it with molto. A friend, who is curious in
natural history, and who closely scrutlnized the
reptile, has furnished us with description
One head was considerably larger than the other,
and bore these words: The Fillmore end
Don't strike me, for if you do the South will
Jump ou of the Union The other, and much
the sna er, bore these words in silver bronze
The Silver Grey End-Anylhiug to Kill Seward

reptile, pussessed the bower Of moving either
way with great rapidity and as for its tongue

The Lady's Man

His face is eternally wreathed with unmean
always in u strain of absurd nonsense, 80 that
we have often been surprised that lady armed
with a fan, and SO addressed, did not brand the
animal on the spot If lady's man does, by
any possibility, possess the least degree of COM
mon sense, he takes especial pains to conceal it,
for somehow or 0ther he has taken it into his
wise head that empty sentimentality and absurd
nothings are the only offerings fit for the female
mind In order to be true to what he conceives
to be the entertainment and amusement Of the
ladies, he turns traitor to manhood, and so be
comes epicenc himself without just claim to
be classed with either the male or female sex.
His best quaIiticsar shose which he possesses
in common with certain kinds of dogs-to fetch
and carry.
Ladies who laugh in their sleeves at the foil
may not object to the attentions Of the servant
and So out of m,re commiseration, may allow
him to carry fan, or escort them to the opera,
when the men Of their acquaintance are not ac-
cessibIc. The lady's man is sufficiently reward
ed for attending them through whole evening S
entertainment, if they will only drop smile in
to his hat at parting. With this substantial
blessing he is encouraged to future exertions in
this wide field of mascul nc ambition. If a
mans duty to lady consists in picking up
dropped handkerchief and raus. or twiring her
round to giddiness and exhaustion in the waltz,
VIC should, perhaps, envy the accomplishment
of the mere lady's man-N o. Delta.

the Cave is covered py three or four feet of dirt

atmosphere of the Cave that the dirt, after be

Narrati of his second expedition is an account

Great Salt Lake basin.

This was cloudless but smokey autumn
morning. with bold wind from the southeast,
and temperature of 45a atsanrisc. In a few
miles noticed, where a little stream crossed the
road. fragments of scoriated basah scattered
about the first volcanic rock we had seen, and
which now became characteristic rock, along
our future road In about six miles travel
from our encaupment, we reached one Of the
points in our journey to which We had always
looked forward with great interest-the famous
Beer springs. The place in which they are sit
uated is basin Of mineral waters enclosed by
the mountains, which sweeps around ii circular
bend of Bear river, hear at its most northern
,,nnt, and whi.h. from northern, in the course
of few miles acquires ,thern direction to-
wards the GREAT SALT LAKE. A pretty little
stream Of clear water enters The upper part of
the basin, from an open valley in thc noun
tains, and passing through the bottom, dischars-
cs into Bear river Crossing this stream, We de-
sccndcd mile below, and made our cncamp-
ulrnt in grave of cedar immediately at the
Beer springs which, ON account of the effcrves-
cling gas and acil taste, received their names
fiom the voyagcars and trappersof the country
who, in the midst Of their rude and hard lives,
are fo of finding some lancied resemblance to
the luxnries they rarely have the fortune to en-
