The Albany Advertiser relates the follow
ing romantic anecdote of RED JACKET, an In
dian Chief, and General LAFAYETTE.
At Buffalo, General LAFAYETTE was
pratifed by an interview with the noted
Seneca Chief, Red Jacket. AT the &C.
LIBERATED Indian treaty, held in the year
's4. Cat Fort Schuyler, now the village
of Rome, in the county OF Oneida tine
characteristic observation OF the native
had marked the youthful and gallant
MARQUIS Lafayette; and the ravages OF
40 years, aided by wounds, disease and
the pestilential vapors OF the dungeon
of Olmutz, did not prevent his recog-
nizing the Marquis in our Nations
Guest. But it is more remarkable that
the youthful orator of the Seneca Ma
ton was still fresh in the Generals re-
collection. Learning that Red Jacket
was present at this treaty, he enquired
what had become Of the young Seneca,
who on that occasion so eloquently OPP
posed the burial of the tomahawk.-
The son ofthe Forest replied, in the pc
culiar phraseology of his native tongue
Ole has the honor to stand before
you..'
The following singular and, we take it,
ironicql compliment, appears as commumca-
ton in the Richmond Compiler. If Mr.. LIS
motives were really pure, some clearer way
Recommending them should have been a
dopted, and if evidently impure, the public
have a right to his name.
EXPEDITIONS
The following fact which we have
from undoubtcd authority, is worthy
of commemoration:
Mr. L'""', gentleman Of this city,
visited ynchburg last Wednesday with
a view of being present at the drawing
Of the Quantico Canal Lottery. Actu-
a,ed by the laudable desire Of convey
ing to his friends here, as speedy infor-
nation as possible, of the result, he de
parted Immediately after its compile
ton, changed horses at Patterson's,
and after travelling all night, reached
Moseley's in the morning, from which
place he despatched his servant, which
his associate in the undertaking had
sent him, and thus had the intelligence
conveyed to Richmond about three O.
clock on Thursday afternoon. AS soon
as the intelligence came to hand, enqui-
ries were made at the various Lottery
Offices, with the intention, no doubt,
of apprising the vendors, what tickets
it would be TO their disadvantage to
dispose of; but it gricvcs us to relate
that the good intentions of the gentle
man were frustrated, as all the fortu-
nate numbers had already been sold.-
If we recollect the fatigue which MIR. l..
must have undergone on this Journey,
independent Of the expense, it is Ger.
tainly to be regretted, that he should
not have the pleasure Of serving his
friends, which we are willing to believe
was his sole induccment for perform
ing the journey.

DOMESTIC,

The Greek Treaty was made by the Commssio-
ncrs OF tie u. States, appointed BY the Presidents
Mr. Monroe, by transmitting it to the Senate gave
it his tacit approbaon--the Senate, after due de-
liberation, and after giving we suppose, to the
Agents remonstrances against the Treaty all the at
tention to which they were entitled, oduised and
consented 10 its ratification, and President Adams,
viewing it in the same light, did ratify it. Thus it
had the appreciation of tiCO Presidents and of the
Senate OF the u. States. Yet, certain persons
having declared that no land should be OBJ
tanned from the Indians while Troup was Cover
nor, have done what they could do to verify their
prcdiction-ther efforts were unavailinr and they
now, might be expected condem the Treaty.
which is good one for the Indians and beneficial
to this state. The Indians disposed to remove
were well provided for and those who preferred TO
remain had valuable lands of sufficient extent al
lottcd to them in Alabama. But for the exercise
of an eXtraneous influence proceeding from the in
gies OF white men, the Indians would doubt
less have coded their lands cheerfully on terms
more advantageous TO the " State than those con-
tanned in the treaty. .lEiiedyerMe Republican

NJ. TernauS is the greatest wooden manufactu-
rer In France. He has % different factories, and
employs 600O men. One branch Of his business,
which, till this time, was unknown in Europe. is
the making of Cashmere shawls. He has imported
number of the Thibet and Angola goats, from
whose dorm, those celebrated shawls are made
His flock has increased; the climate suits them
their food costs but little. they are fond ofhorse
chesnuts, weeds and similar trash He sells 20 or
80 annually. The quantity of down produced bv
each animal, Is not above three ounces and half.
He makes but few shawIs of the pure down but the
speculation has succeeded, for the idea is generally
received that they made of the same materials
az the shawls imported from Cashmere 1t is not
uncommon to pay from 200 to $50 dollars for a
real Cashmere shawl. -
About fifteen millions of acres (more than an
eighth part of France) are covered with forests.
