SAVA N N AH, JANU a R Y 13,~i85iT TF* It is with a degree of pleasure that wo call attention totim Card of Al. A. Reich in otit c i.u.n is. Mr. we are assured on consent ra nicil authority, is thoroughly TorsoJ in Ills profession, an 1 folly capable of imparting a complete knowledge of music. The Magnolia. T.iis beautiful steamer made her appear ance in our waters on Sunday last, and takes her place in the Florida line on Tuesday next. She is almost u fuc simile of the Meta morn, and it is said will equal her in speed. May success attend her. The Steamship Alabama. This magnificent floating palace arrived on Tuesday last from New York, and we have again the pleasure of saying that we have a weekly communication with New York, by *e splendid and substantial steamships as are afloat, and commanded by as skillful and gen tlemanly uieu as ever trod u plank. The Morning Nevra Made its appearance on Wednesday last much enlarged, and in a beautiful uew diess. What au extravagant fellow the proprietor is, every three months he has anew coat; we rejoice in their prosperity, the world— our little world Savannah—is large enough for us all, indeed, the increasing business of our much loved city, demanded a paper such as the *• glorious little News” is; but like nil other envious children when they see their fellows fine clothes—we feel the inclination to hrag a little, so we’re going to have anew suit too, and then you shall see what you shall see, Mr. News, there now. Carey’s Daguerrean Gallery. It is really a pleasure to pass an hour in Carey’s Gallery, in which is to be seen the fluent collection of likenesses to be found per haps in the South, and equal to any in the Union. Mr. Carey.ranks among the first in his profession, and our country friends will be well repaid by a visit to his rooms when they’ come to the city. Any person with a little practice can furnish a Daguerreotype, but it absolutely require is as much skill and talent to take a good likeness of this kind, as must be exerted for the execution of a good portrait. We have seen many carricatures palmed upon the uninitiated, but a good like ness is a treasure that no money may pur chase from us. How often is it after we have b*t a near aim dear friend, that we would gi y e hundreds to possess that which might hnve been obtained for a few dollars. A case came to our knowledge a short time since, a gentleman after much persuasiongot his moth er to sit for a Daguerreotype, which, though not a very superior one, yet was nevertheless invaluable as it served to remind him of the loved original, for but a short period elapsed alter it was taken, ere she sickened and flied. In his estimation now, no earthly trea sure is half so much prized as this little link between the past and the present. Six or eight copies have since been taken from this, lor other members of the family, who. while the original was with them in health and vigor, did not think to provide themselves with such a remembrancer.

If Mr. Wright or his co-laborer Mr. Lyaan der Spooner, will come to the South and see for themselves the condition of the people they are so zealously seeking to injure, in stead of benefiting as they suppose, we haz aid the assertion, (it either of them are still in their right minds.) their opinions will un deigo a change.

DIED, IN Savannah, on the 27th of October last, Mrs. MARY A. KELLY, wife of the late William M. Kelly, arid daughter of David and Sarah Hugtienin of St. Luke’s Parish, South Carolina, aged 53 years. Siio was tor many years a consistent and highly esteemed member of the Biptist Ctmrch, Her remarkable amiability en dear. 1 her to all her acquaintances. Though naturally ot a retiring disposition, her sym pathies with the afflicted, and her great in terest in every good work, made her a most valuable friend and a most useful member of society. Her piety was of the passive char acter. She rather waited patiently upon the leadings of Divine Providence, and submit ted calmly to the dispositions of Divine Sovereignty, ttian in uldeJ her own will or desired her own way, Y"et there was choice in her opinions, and she felt the effects of circumstances. But her sentiments and emotions amenable to an abiding sense of God’s love, caused her to watch the guidance ot Providence aud regard His dispositions as best. By this habit there was a serenity m her mien and a purity in her conversation that impressed the observer that ha who lives in tae tear snail enjoy the favor of God. Her hte was peaceful, a pattern of godli ness; respected by all who observed her, esteemed by all wao know tier, and beloved by all who were related to her. She died us she hid lived, trusting in God her salvation. Her departure Iro.n hence is mourned by a numerous circle of fnen is, and m turned at. a hearth of which her amiability was the ornament, her kindness the comfort, and her affection the attraction. But “ j ßlessed are the dead which die in the Lord from hence forth ; yea , saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their Labors an l their works do follow them.” A CARD.
