DIR. Kane.

The Djaria de Ia Marina, Havana, an>
noances the death of DR.. K, on The evening
Of the 18th, with much feeling, and says:
The loss of so distinguished a parsonage,
who, at the age of thirty FIVE, had made his
name ilius'rious by two voyages to The Arctic
regions for scientific discoveries, must be
sensibIy felt. \ \ X d.. Kane has rendered
many and important services to science. geo.
graphy, zoology and medicine. The world
cannot but feel the loss of a Traveller who
penetrated to the 80 , of north latitude, aud
to see disappear from among the living a man
who had consecrated his fife to the acquisition
Of knowledge useful to mankind.
The highest honors were paid the deceased
by the most distinguished officers Of the
island. The Di0rio says his body lad been
embaImed for the pupose of transportation to
the United States. 1t is brought by the Ca
hawba.
The body arrived in New Orleans while the
ContinentaZs were celebrating the 22d, Wash
ington's Birth Day: They Immediately re-
paired TO the steamer and received the soco~
phagus containing the body, and paraded to
mournful dirges through several streets,
while, at the same time, minute guns were
being fred. The body was finally placed in
the reception room of the Mayor, at the City
Hall, over which a guard Of honor was placed,
where crowds of people hoeked to see the
distinguished dead, The body was afterwards
conveyed by military escort to the boat land
ing, to be conveyed by its friends to Philadel-
phia. And thus ends the life of a young man
whose name will be immortal.

Spare the Babi:.--A writer in Haryer's
Weekly, abiding to a ChiIdrsn's " fancy dress
ball" says: us it not enough that fashion
should seduce our wives and grown up
daughters from home, its virtues and its du-
ties Must it go into our nurseries and be
allowed to snatch up in it's cold clutches the
child from its mothers knee, before it has
learned to stammer out lead US not into
temptation" and the little one from its pillow,
in the repose Of innocence and sleep, and
thrust them into the glare Of gas-light, and an
excitement as deadly to the heart as it is un-
wholesome to the body? Fashionable moth,
ers sacrifice yourselves, if you please, on the
Altar of Fashion, but spare the babies"

letter from an Ibervipptan ia Ntcnra-

We have been shown q letter from JAMES
D.. FEM, dated Point Arenas, February 4th, 10
which he announces the safe arrival of the VOL
unteers under Gen. Titus, and speaks Of the
good cheer which prevailed among his men,
The letter was evidently written in haste, and
for want Of better accommodations, on the top
of a wooi,piIe on board a steamer. just on
the eve Of departure. He states, that although
Gen. Titus expected to cut his way through
the Costa Ricans in order to.reach Riyas, his
men were all confident Of success, and eager
for the fray"
He furthermore states that he, together with
RoDoLPH VERBoIs, son Of Capt. [. n. YER,
BOTS, of this parish, "a youth Of about seven
teen.) had enlisted in Capt. Morris Company,
in Titus Regiment, and That on their arrival at
Rivas, they would write again.
1t is evident, from the letter of yofsng FEM
that both young VERBoIs and himself were in
the battles Of the 9th February. two days after
the letter alluded to was written, and respect
ing which our readers have already had full.
accounts. We know the characters of the
young men alluded TO, and the only fear res
pecting them is, that in an engagement, they
are liable to act with too much rashness. II

The Weather.--The past week has been one
Of sunshine and loneliness rarely equalled even
in our sunny cline at this season Of the year.
Our trees are assuming their spring garb the
peach and plum have been in flower a week;
and the birds, joyous as man by the influence
of balmy airs, are springiDg from bough to
bougb, welcoming each rising sun with the
warnings Of their matin notes; we hear them
as we write, and while we think that it is Feb
ruary, and that around US are green leaves
and rosesbuds, we would say like Mr.. TYLER:
oh fly TO the South, where Japonicas bloom,
And enamel the grove with their beautiful
flowers:
Oh, come and enhale their delicious perfume,
Arising from Natures W mystical bowers.

Prof. Gins, Wilson.

Il is seldom that our country towns are Vi
sited by any but mountebanks in the various
sciences they pretend to practice, Or in the ex-
hibitions they pretend to exhibit. 1t is, then
as much our daty as our pleasure to record
The fl c., when a deserving person visits our
town and fully performs all that he Processes,
whether in art, science OF amusement. That
Prof. WILSON has done this, in the practice Of
his beautiful art, hundreds of delighted patrons
ia this town and vicinity will testify. He came
here unheralded and unknown, but a few days
only elapsed before his great skill as an Ans
b~rotypist was fully understood and aPprecia-
ted. There is no doubt that his portraits are

Cor indeed painting) in connection with his
Ambrotyping, is a separate art of itself, which
he acquired after studying it in Paris and other
cities Of Europe, and in examining and study
ing good paintings in the many galleries of
the fine arts to be seen in that country.
We'have heard competent judges pronounce
Prof. WILSON'S Ambrotypes to be. the best
they had ever seen-indeed, equal to photo.
graphs. To prove this assertion, we refer TO
one particular portrait among many others of
his work, TO be seen in his gallery it is that
Of a little daughter of a respected clergyman
of this town. She is taken full length--her
apron hoisted up with one hand, and roses falls
ing out of it on the ground-a beautiful idea
the impression conveyed that she has just
returned from the garden, where she had been
gathering flowers. We are sure that this
beautiful picture cannot be excelled by a pho
tograph, and it is alone sufficient in itself to
establish his reputation.
Prof. WILSON is now about t.. leave US, and
we commend him to the good graces of our
contemporaries every where. In his contem-
plated return to Europe and visit to the Holy
Land, in the enthusiastic pursuit of his pro-
fession-to take views,o celebrated localities,
for the purpose of embellishing a work he has
in preparation-we wish him continued health
and uninterrupted success in the accomplishS
ment of his praisewortby undertaking.
Since the above was in type we understand
that Prof. WILSON will not be enabled TO leave
here the ensuing week, so much has his
business increased.
