Maryvdle Jan. 3. 1810.
Bex. and Dear Sir,
1 think when 1 was with you in Charlestown,
I stated tin- number of the Cheiokee nation be
between 10 ami 12,000 fouls, though at that
time the enumeration was not completed, and I
could not therefore make the estimate with ccr.
tainty. But now the persons employed having
finished the business, I am able to give you the
exact state of the nation in detail. Let it be re
marked, that the enumeration is rather below
then above the number in e\ery particular ; us
the Indians, by some means, especially at the
first of the business, thought there might be a
design eventually to tax them according to that.
Li the nation there are 12.395 Indians The
number of females exceeds the males ?'.’0—
The vCites in the nation are 311 Of negro
slaves there are 5R3 The number of their cat
lie, 19,500; do. of horses, 6,100 The number
of hogs 19,600; do. of sheep, 1,037.
They have now in actual operation, 23 grist
mdh ; 3 saw mills ; 3 salt petre works ; and 1
powder mill They have ttO waggons, between
480 and 500 ploughs, 1600 spinning wheels,
467 looms and 40 silversmiths
Circulating specie is supposed to be as plenty
as is common among the white people_These
advantages have been mostly obtained since the
year 1( 94, and rapidly increase since tbs year
It we deduct from the year the number of
Sabbaths it contains, and suppose that each
spinning wheel turns oft si\ -ruts per day, the
amount, ot IdUO will be 250,400 dnxen yarn in1
one year ; this will make when wove into cloth,
292,233 yard*. (
11 we should suppose each loom to put off 4
yards per day, the produce of 467 will be annual
1>'» 584,684 yards
Allow two hands to a wheel, 3,200 women
will be employed in carding and .spuiviHg, 467
engaged in Weaving and as many to lilt the
quids.
11 each plough be allowed only ten acres, then
500 ploughs would cultivate 5.000 acre*, and
would employ 1000 hands as one must use the
hoe alter the plough. There is also nearly as
ni'jf h land in the nation wrought without a
plough as with it Eacli acre will produce 50
bushels, which will be equal to 250,000. or 20
bushels to each person lhe actual amount will
double tiiat sum
It is often asked, are they increasing, cr on
the decline ? All 1 can say to this is, that both
from my own observation,it is evident that there
is lens space between the younger children of fa
ntilies than those more advanced, and that in
nearly the proportion as the hunting life has
yielded to the cultivation of the soil
1 he number ot bihles and testaments circulat
ed in the nation, including the children of the
schools, is upwards of 609. and a variety o» oth
er books, as opportunity offered.
On their roads they have many public houses,
and on their rivers are convenient ferries ; there
are many of them learning different trades as
their inclination may lead them. Uut yet there
is no church erected, and few feel the impression
of graze.

only pray that the Lord may make your harvest

GIDEON HLACKliUHNE.
Dublin, March 2 6.
On Saturday was presented to his grace
the lord lieutenant, for his inspection, a me.
chanical musical instrument, as a specimen
of he improvement of the fine arts in this
kingdom, with which his grace was much
pleased and expressed his high approbation
to the inventor on his accomplishing so extra -
ordinary a piece of workmanship.
For the gratification of the public we here
subjoin •? description of the ingenious ma
chine above mentioned:—It is made in a
gold box. something larger than a common
sized snuffbox ; it has round the sides four
Pieces of clu ystal glass., that the different
parts of the mechanism may be seen when
in action. Upon opening the lid, there is
an engraved plate (silver) representing ah
Irish bard leaning on his harp, supposed to
be listening to another bard playing at some
distance. In the branch of a tree is a bird
on its nest, tnat, on touching a particular
part of the box, rises and flutters while the
music is playing, which is performed by per
emsion oh a small round polished piece of
steel.
We know not whether most to admire
the correctness of the execution, the soft and
melodious tones it produces, or the perfect,
ness of the music, in which the most cruf
cal ear cannot discover an error. \Ve had al
must forgot to mention, that occasionally
notes are shook, very gracefully. On tne
whole it is a most masterly piece ot wotk,
which docs the inventor infinite credit ; and’
wc sincerely hope he win meet the reward
due to such perseverance and ingenuity.

POLICE.
Quern square On Friday a singular ins
tance of cmuiing and credulity occir red at
this fltce ; a modern enchantress named Ma
O Lonner, was charged with dt iiHiiding
Margaret Anderson of various articles of
wearing apparel. I»y pretended magical il
lusion..—The prosecutor staled that she liv
ed in Windmill street, when about 4 inotuhs
ag ' the prisoner applied to her for lodgings,
and was admitted. Site had not been more
than five weeks before she gained her con
lidence, anti having communicated many par
ticulars to her respecting a young m in who
ihen paid his addresses to her, the prisoner
jfgan to-form her designs, not only of depriv
es the prosecutrix of her lover, but her pro
perty al?o.
In the first she obtained complete success,
and actually married the young man, while
Anderson imagined he was courting her as
usual. The piiaoner’s next attempt was
made at the poor girl’s clothes ; she commen
ced her frauds, by pretended knowledge ol
.ccroinancy, ami what she termed the
Mack Art—Having persuaded hei that her
•»ver was inconstant, she niulcnock to teli
»t r who wouid be her husband, nul lor that
pirpnsc placed a poker and trmgs across un
der the bed ; this being repeated several
nights, but finding this charm would notan.
swer, amongst many other things, a cake was
made of pretended materia!* ; bat not with
standing 'he force or these ptetended charms',
she told the prosecutrix that th*y would not
produce the desired effect, because the ap
parition of a y<>ung man was in the man, ami
that this spirit wati.ed something out of her
box The box was therefore to be opem d.
and its contents spread on the table, to
which the prosecutrix ron,ented ; and gown*
and varmus oilier articles, worth between
*01 and 301 were left on the table. Th%
following morning they were all gone, anti
the prisoner told her that the apparition had
conveyed them to a castle in Devonshire, ami
if she attetripled to reveal it, she would be
turned into a fi,h, Being fearful of the con
sequences if she unfolded the secret, the
prosecutrix did not speak of it for near elc^
ven weeks ; during which time the prisoner,
| by various arts, obtained several sums of mo
ney from her These impositions might
have continued longer, had not the prose
| cutrix discovered that the prisoner was mar
ried to the man before mentioned, on which
she soon recovered from her del ision. II ty
ing applied to the Magistrates, the prisoner
was apprehended, who, in her defence, ac
knowledged that the above statement was
true, and that she h v| resorted to these im
positions for the purpose of obtaining clothes,
&c. The prisoner in consequence wa^coni
mitted formal, and her husband as an ac
complice was held to bail.
