Cherokee Indians, and directed to proceed 10 this

Cherokee Adyocate) although of little weight COM
paratively to that Govemment-great, powerful, and
wealthy as she is-are of incalculable moment to
the Cherokees. They affect not merely their pc
cuniary interests, but also those intimately connect

HoNoR TO AMERICAN MAHurAcTURERs.-
We learn from the New York Morning News,
that Mr.. Horace II. Day, Of that city, who re-
Gently sent to the Pacha Bey of Tunis porta-
BILE India Rubber Boat, pair of corrugated
Boots and Brooches, and an India Rubber YES
sci to use in transporting water upon the backs
of camels in the place of goat skins, has receiv-
ed thro' John Howard Payne, Esq, U. S. Con-
sui a present from the Bey, of magnificent
gold box, richly set with diamonds:
The letter from the Bey accompanying the
box, which Mr. Day has in the original, is
translated as follows:
GLORY TO GoD!-From the slave of All
Powerful God, the Mouchir Achmet Pacha
Bey, Emir of the Tunsian armies. To our
Ally, John Howard Payne, Consul General of
the American Government, at Tunis: We have
received from you divers objects formed OF a
material which water cannot penetrate, and
which your letter whereby they were accom-
panied, declares to have been sent to us by the
inventor, Horace II. Day, of New York. in the
American country. This is the first time we
have seen any thing OF the sort from al Amer
lean. They have gratified US muck. There
VIII co'He 10 You, herewith, box OF God,
adorned with brilants We desire that you
will have the goodness TO send it to Mr. Day,
that he may have remembrance of us, as VIC
have of him, in the productions which he has
placed in our possession. May God have you
under his holy guardianship. Written the
2Sth day of Jomadhi Ell Aouel, the year l2G ,
corresponding with June Sd, 1915.
The News says the intrinsic value ofthe box
is many hundred dollars, but Mr.. Day, we
presume, estimates it more highly.
The rim of the box is studded with large
diamonds of great value, while the bril!iants
on the cover are very ingeniousy arranged so as
to represent boat From tho bow rises a
diamond flower, the forgot-me-not as a token
of the Pacha's grateful remembrance, and in
the stern, the little flower hnnortclie, equiva-
lent in Oriental language to May you live for
ever" while in the centre rises an India Rub
Der Tree, around which serpent cntwnes,
thus denotng the application of Science to the
manufacture of Caoutchouc, and that nature
yields to human skill, comforts, luxuries and
fortunes.

PATENT GALvlNIc RINGs. The following
is an extract from an editorial which appeared
on the cath of June in the Albany Daily Clti
zen-J. Stanley Smith, Esq, editor;
"Tho patent Gavanc Rings, which are
making such stir in the world Just now, are
novel invention of this age Of invention
"With regard to their efficiency we can say
that two or three cases have fallen under our
notice, which have favorably impressed our
minds. The first is that of highly respectable
merchant Of New York, who declared to us
that their use speedily relieved him of cough,
seated pain in the side, many symptoms ct a
pulmonary complaint, and he is now entirely
well. The second that we shall notice, is that
of young man named Robbins, a resident of
this city, who about one year since was visited
with an attack ofthe paralysis which affected the
whole of one side of his body. We accom-
panied medical friend to his residence, No.
SO Beaver street, on Saturday to enquire into
his case. We found that he had been deprived
entirely Of the use Of an arm and leg, and that
sensation had been lost to the whole side Of his
body. He had been unable to use the leg in
walking, or the arm in eating, and the phYsj-
clans said they could not help him. Within
the last few weeks he has worn two and four
of DR.. Crsue's Galvanic Rings, and used the
Magnetic fluid, and the effect upon his paraIy-
tic is astonishing. The dcath-likc GOODNESS lett
them, the numbness began to give way to many
sensations OF returning life and feeling, perspl-
ration came out more freely, and he has nccn
rapidly gaining, and while before he wore the
Rings he was unable to arsicuate distinctly,
walk or feed himself, yet now ne talks freely,
rides out, walks some and for the most part is
able to help himself. These cases, coming TO
our personal knowledge, certainly testify to
the merits Of Or Cristes Cavanc Rings and

TnE SALr-MANuFAcruRE. They have dis
covered at Syracuse, n. York, animproycmeat
in the manufacture Of salt. The process is so
simple that all wonder why it has not been
thought of before, As it may lead to other
useful applications Of the principle, and as the
majority of our readers may not have noticed
it, we briefly state that the brine of saline
springs contain from 10 to 100 per cent of salt,
but less than the necessary quantity for satur-
ing it. The plan now is to add 80 per cent of
salt to it, when the impurities, consisting of
some 80 per cent, float upon the surface, and
the hooper cent, including, of course, the 80
per cent. added, sinks to the bottom, and is
drawn off, and the water evaporated. As there
are now about 10000, 900 of bushels of salt
made at the Salna springs, the amount will
probably be more than doubled by this process,
since about one-thrd more is made by it than
by the old process,

INcEHIous AND USEFUL, a piece of me-
chanism, of new invention, which is styled a
safety valve or water guard, has arrived at Phi
ladelphia, from New York, and is to be attach
ed to the boiler of the U. S. steamship Water
Witch. 1t is a small engine, says the Ledger,
worked by steam from the boiler, connected
with which is a force pump. Inside the boiler
is buoy at the end of lever acting upon a
valve outside, which when open admits tho
steam to the small engine. When there is :
plentiful supply of water in the boiler, the
buoy 10 up, and the little ongino has not steam
to set it in motion; but the moment the water
falls below certain point, the steam sets the
force pumps in operation, and it continues I'M
til the rising of the buoy closes the valve.
