LooSIse ALosT.-Some years ago. Or. Godman
OF Philadelphia, (no~ decesscd) related that in a
voyage to sea In early life, he had seen lad who had
just begun to be sailor, gong out TO project
ing part oil the rigging. HIS arms we're supported by
spar, and he was looking below him for rope
which ran across, on which his feet should be. The
rope few from side to SIDE and ii was evident that
the poor fellow was becoming dizzy, and in danger
Of falling, when the mate shouted TO him with all his
force, Look aloft you snesking lubber" BY thus
turning away his eyes from danger, the dizziness was
prevented, and he found his footing.
Add this incident, the Doctor SAID, often REQUIRED
to his mind in after life, when his troubles grew
heavy upon him, and he could hardly fpd ground
wherein 70 tread At such time be heard the mate
shout IN his ears and turned his eyes haoft" to the
high prize on which he had fastened his hopes.
We cannot part with this beautiful illustration
without asking each Of our readers to apply II to a

CHEROKEE aDVOChTpn

We have now, upon table, the mere rumor OF
Which "ouid nave occasloned ten years ago, in
credulous laugh over the whole country. We allude
TO several OF the late numbers of newspaper under
the above title, printed and conducted by halfbreed
Indian, w. p Ross, Esq, at Tahlequah, in the Che
rokee Nation. The Cherokces were finally removed
under circumstances Of peculiar interest and we re-
greet to add under circumstances too oredtable 10
tins country TO their new land, IN 1898. They ceded
TO the Government the best lands in four Of our So
yeregn States, Georgia, North Carolina, Alabama.
and Tennessee and thus separated from home-from
native land-from the graves and hunting grounds Of
their athers-they settled down in their present To-
cation, west Of the Mississippi The paper now be-
fore us, is exceedingly well printed and well con.
Quoted The editor Mr.. Ross, obtained his educa.
ton at Princeton College, and writes with great IA
cy and cesrness. The Cberokees are rapidly ac-
quirng habits of civilization. They have government
erected according TO the republ can standard com
posed Of Executive Legislative and Judicial Depart-
ments. The first number OF the Advocate contains
the names Of the officers of the government, mem
beers Of the Supreme, Circuit, and District Courts
and members of the Legislature-bcsldes giving a
satisfactory and interesting anay of the principles
Of the government and its institutions A portion of
this paper Is printed in Cherokee and the remainder
In EDglish Its object seems to be to enlighten the
Cherokees-to deisnd them against nluslce-to ex-
plain and assert their rights and to sustain those
rights in Treaties legally made at different times with
the United States-to keep alive, among them an in.
terest in Religion, Education Ars, Mechanics, Agri.
culture and TO cherish the virtues of the and the
christian. noble and benevolent object truly
We placed under deep obligations to our friend
Colonel Samuel Stambaugh, while paying last week
temporary visit to his family and friends in this city
and vicinity for copies of the Cherokee Advocate
The Cherokee, as well as the unprotected Indian Of
whatever name, has no warmer, truer, or more vau
able friend than Colonel Stambaugh No man has
been successful, in urging before government
the rights Of the poor Indian To our knorledqe no
one has more frequently saved the red man from i'm
position m our National capitol and It rejoices us TO
learn that he rs situated as to be able to make
himself more efficient than ever. His experience is
grcat--hs talents superior-his tact unfailing-and
his perseverance unialtering We hope this sponts-
neous tribute TO old friend, will not be regarded as
a mere puff editorial We say what we think Of
one who deserves II well.

| The unexpected and alarming Wing msJor'iie' !"
what is termed the Atakapas country" created very
great apprehensions in the minds Of the Democracy

the result beyond doubt.
"The Atakapas country is an extensive prairie

the raising Of stock aud dependent upon the grazing
capacities of the soil.
| Our sleepless and INSCRIPTIONS opponents sprung
mine upon US for which we were entirely unPre'

inhabitants (denominated " Acadiens " that Texas

completely destroy the stock and grazing business Of

ceived AZ majority in July, 1912, that at the late
election the Wing ticket received eight hundred and

apprehension until recent returns, were not without
substantial foundation.
The recent returns, to which sllude, are from
the parishes of Rapides, Avoyelles, Caldwell and
Catahoua-the four parishes giving us SGT majority
previous to which returns the Wing ticket was up
wards of 500 votes ahead.
So far the returns are now received, the Demo-

OIL OF TANNIN, 4

A NEW CHEMICAL DISCOVERY.
Most people know that skins and hides are convert
ed into leather by the Of Tannn extracted from
certain banks, SIC.
When the force and strength of the Tannin is worn
out, leather becomes dead, hard dry brittle cracked
covered with crust, &c. THIS ALL KNOW. To re-
store then, life, sofness moistness strength smooth
ness and ramove all crust, fly, bster-restore the
annin. This substance the leather never can receive
the second time but the whole virtues of it are in
this article, the OIL OF TANNIN--which pene-
trates the stest and hardest LEATHER if it has been
twenty years in use; and if it tears easily with the
fingers, it mparts at strength that is utterly
incredible until seen. 1t becomes like new leather,
in all respects, with delightful sofness and polish,
and makes all leather completely and perfectly inn
pervious to water-particularly boots, shoes, carr
agetops harness. hose, trunks and in fact all things
made of leather, giving splendid polish, even high
er than leather has, and at least doubling its
wear and durability, in whatever manner the leather
is used. THESE ARE FACTS. -t
Those who will may wear old shoes, groan with
corns, ride with old carriagetops--have old harness.
