a deputation of the Ojibwa Indians, from

Wild woods, was in Rochester, stopped over

or obtain an interview with the lady whose
fame has penetrated even into the lakewood
haunts of the native tribes of America
They failed to get into her concert, and at
her request met her at her rooms yesterday
morning. Decked in their bravest attire, as
for the war dance, with the ornanented robes
and implements Of war, their faces painted
after the most approved fashion, and with
lofty head dresses of feathers, &C., they Vait-

Something New-Galvanic Printing Pres

Mr.. r. Foreman passed up on Sunday, on
his way to Washington, to procure a patent
for most ingenious and practical invention.
He had with him model of printing press,
moved and regulated by means Of galyanic
magnets. We shall not attempt complete
description of Mr.. F. s discovery; suffice it
to say that he had the press in full operation,
with a form upon it, from which he threw of
impressions with the rapidity of lightning.
His paper works upon a reel, and is scontinu-
Gus, like the telegraphic coil. The paper
passes over the type on a cylinder, and when
one side is worked the paper is reversed, and
the other side printed with a most perfect
register, and the sheets are clipped apart as
they come from the press by an ingenious
contriyance. There is no limit hardly to the
speed at which this press will work; It's ex.
actness is beyond any thing known in this
line Of machinery; and, what is better thar
all, Mr.. B. says hescan put up the largest
sized press at a cost of not more than $500
Mr.. Foreman is a practical printer, and q
present a citizen of New Boston, illinois,

of them had taken a part in the Italian
war of independence and the other was
daughter of the North, known in the

Michigan Wheat Crop.-We are in

with the early disappearance of the snow,

SENATOR WADE.-The Purtage cnun

lect:
The result will be hailed with uuiver
sal acclamaton by the Wings through
out the State aud Union. Almost every
person in this region is personally &C
auainted with Judge Wade,and all know
him to be a straightout steadtast Wing
and nothing else" He was the first and
unanimous choice of tho Whig' party anc
press on the Reserve, for the post Of Sen
ator, and is, we believe, the first lndividu
al ever elected to that Office from the
northern section of the State. The whig;
in the Legislature nobly perinrmed 'hei'
duty by supporting him for station
which he is so emiuently qualified to fl
with honor to himse If and constituents.
Although Judge Wade was elected
by the aid of FreesoiI party votes, ana
has always been a consistent advocate a
the cause of freedom. yet he has never
been identified with the distinctive free
soil organization. He did good service
for General Taylor in 1913, and has nev
or yet deemed it necessary to step out
side of the Wing ranks to exemplify hi'
devotion to Frees)I.

THE ILLINOIS CENTRAL RAILRoAD.-lt
is said that the charter granted by The II
linois Legislature, has been accepted by
the Eastern corporaturs, and that the
deeds for the land granted by Congress
to build the road, have been executed to
the trustees. The construction of this
great railway, is undertaken by twelve of
the heaviest capitalists in the country,
aud tho magnitude of the undertaking
may be Judged from the fact, that SIG,
0G0. 900 is the least sum that is estimated
to complete the main trunk from Cairo
with the two branches to Galena aud
Chicago. The giant of sufficient lands
by Congress, to build a sixteen million
railway through the heart of the State
is a gift indeed.
The work is to be commenced at once
at Cairo, and fifty miles completed dur
ing the season.
