The Denmark question, involving her

1t is stated that they have each within

his son, and, in consequence of his
representations the tradesmen of Man

of several hundred dollars. The career
of both parties for a number of years
is.detailed in the Mirror with greatmi-
puteness. rVETEETTE
At Newark, N J., in 1854, the elder
Abbott was married to Mrs. Elizabeth

EDITED BY LOUIS GAYLoR CLARK.

The number for January, 1856, begins the FORTY
SEVENTH VOLUME of the KNfCkERBocKER MAGAZINE.
Since the price of subscritiou has been reduced
from FIVE to THREE DOLLARS a year, the circulation
hVe to one. In many places, ten are sold where was
but one before, and through the year past it has been
steadily increasing. 1t is now offered as cheap as
any OF the Magazines, all things considered. Instead
of making new and prodigious promises, we submit a
few extracts from notices Of late numbers, which we
might extend to a number of pages.

MELLOW FEVER AT HAVANA AND
MATAEzAs.-The. ship, Lady Franklin,
from Matanzas for Trieste, spoken at
sea some days since by the steamer
Black Warrior, arrived at Quarantine
on Sunday last, with nearly the whole
crew disabled by yellow fever. Mat
anzas is usually a very healthy port,
and the captain of the Lady Franklin
reports that no fever prevailed there
until recently, and not until several
vessels had arrived there from Havana
having yellow fever on board. From
Havana vessels the fever first spread
among the shipping at Matahzas, and
then into the town. The officers and
crew of the Lady Franklin, who were
alive on their arrival, were sent 1.-THE
Marine Hospital at Quarantine, and
the vessel was sentbythe Health Officer
far down the bay for a safe anchorage.

PHOTOGRAPHY UNDER WATER.-An
Englishman, by the name of Thompson,
recently took a very good photograph
Of the rocks and weeds at the bottom
Of Weymouth Bay, in England. He
placed his camera obscura in a box,
with plate glass front and movable
shutter, to be drawn up as soon as the
camera had been sunk to the bottom.
The apparatus was then let down from
a boat, carrying with it the collodion
plate, prepared in the ordinary way.
When at the bottom, the shutter Of the
box was raised, and the plate exposed
for period of ten minutes, with a sue
cessful result. 1t is believed that this
method viii prove a ready and expen-
sive means Of arriving at a knowledge
of the condition of piers, bridges, piles.
structures and rocks under water.
