Tiie Mystery Solved.— \\ e have seen a pam
phlet purporting to he an Expose of the plan by
which the self-styled “Mysterious Lady” through
the means of a “faculty hitherto unknown” is
enabled to perform apparent impossibilities;
and to - gull the Yankees from Maine to Geor
gia.”
This little work furnishes a Key by which
anv person for their own amusement can per
form the same tricks, with complete success and
at less expense than by witnessing the perform
ance of tire distinguished discoverer of theta
lent.
We have not ourselves witnessed the “extraor
dinary” performances of this “ wonderful be
ing”—but have no doubt from the perusal of the
Expose, that the author has discovered the mode
by which this imposition is practised. Some of
our good folks have been most egregiously de
ceived in relation to this humbug.

A letter received in Boston, from Marseilles,
announces the death of George B. Adams,
E$»j„ United States Consul at Alicant, Spain,
September 10. Mr. Adams was a native of
Boston, but bad resided in Spain for the last
eighteen years.
Captain Vincent, of brig Eliza Ann. who
arrived at Boston, from Cape Haytien, brings
information of the death of Samuel Israel, Esq.
lT. States Consul at that place, which took place
on the 23d ult.
Mr. Tanner has published “ A Brief Descrip

the United States, and several engravings,
showing the length, rise, and fall of the princi

The Pirates.—The trial of these miserable
men is progressing in Boston. During the ex
amination, the Atlas says, much confusion took
pljce in court in conseqence of an objection
taken bv the prisoners’counsel to the interpre

ler at last settled by two gentlemen being ap
pointed to assist him.
