The Red Faces to the Pale Faces When
the delegation from the Cherokees and other In
dian tribes Of the west visited Washington last
April they intended to present an address TO the
lady Of the President, but were prevented from
the expected interview, by the sad bereavement
which had just deprived the President and his
lady Of their only son. The address which the In
dians had prepared for the occasion is published
in the Cherokee Aduocate lndian paperD as follows:
"HoNoRED MADAM: Our race have already been
alxy hnnn Nf tIa,r
personal respects to the lady of the chief magis-
trate Of this great republic. The only exceptions,
believe, were Mrs. Madison and Mrs. Tyler,
who kindly conceded TO us this favor. On behalf
Of the Cherokee, Choctaw, and Chickasaw ma
tions, their representatives present. beg leave
to express to you the deep gratitude they feel for
this distinguished privilege you have afforded, to
tender you their sincere wishes for your welfare
and long continued happiness.
Permit us, madam. TO remark, that your sex in
this favored land constitute the grand instrument
for the enlightenment Of your race, and we trust
of the world, in wisdom and the preservation OF
good government--anda although your virtues and
intellect are not under the control and auspices OF
European systems yet they are more brilliant than
those nurtured by the thrones of oriental spendor
Il has been the custom of the Indians TO ad-
dress the President by the venerated name OF
Great Father: may we not venture TO address you
as the maternal political parent of our race, and
such ask your blessing" Z"

Grisi and MariO.-The New York Times has
the following paragraph about the expected visit
Of these artists to the United States:
"Grisi and Mario, we regret to say, are not
likely to be with us this season. The American
manager, under whom they have engaged.to visit
the United States, returned day before yesterday
in the Arabia from England, and while there, par
italy, though reluctantly, consented to the post
ponement of the engagement to August or Sep
tember of next year. There were reasons for this,
independent OF the mere convenience or profit of
the distinguished artists in question, the chief Of
which was the unfinished condition and very slow
progress TO completion OF the new Irving place
opera house, of which Mr.. Hackett was advised
while in London. This establishment may be
ready by March--it is so prominent at present but
the obstacles have been so unexpected and the
cause of such serious delay thus tar, that no GER
tain calculation could be based upon it. Mario
and Grisi will doubtless find their profit in the de-
lay, through the munifcent offers which are un-
derstood TO have been made from Paris and St.
Petersburg for the winter, and the English season
next spring, and as set-of TO the disappointment
here, they have probably stipulated for longer
service for the same pay when they do come than
originally bargained for. Besides, it would not
have been artist-ike to keep first engagement.
