Mr.. I. g. Richardson has invented a

witnessed BY company Of scientific
gentlemen and members OF the press on
Saturday, at room No "a, Merchants
Exchange. for transportation Of letters,
packages, &c. The vehicle for trans.
port, as experimental upon, is led tube,
one inch in diameter and twenty feet long.
The letter or package to be conveyed is
folded and placed in q bag attached TO a
plunger and is propelled by pressure of
air. The plunger is SO arranged that the
air cannot pass il. No friction is crea-
ted. We saw packages pass and repass
the lube mentioned above in a second
We understand that an Atmospheric
Company has been formed, and that a
line is to be erected between this city a.
New York, having stations at Worces-
ter. Springfield. &c. Mr.. Richardson is
very confident that by means of the tube
letters can be conveyed to New York in
fifteen minutes! or ss speedily as bust.

The DISPUTES BETWEEN THE GREER
AND LATIN CHRISTIANS AT JERUSALEM
The manner in which the Turkish Com.
missioner has thought proper to termi
maize the differences at Jerusalem has dis
pleased all parties. On the top of the
grot,o Of Bethlehem there had always
existed silver star, indicative of the
exact spot of the Holy Nativity; but
some years ago this star had disappear
ed during a quarrel which took place be.
tween the various Christian congrega.
tons, and il became question who was
to replace it, which was in some sort es.
tablishing right of possession, and now
at last the Commissioner of the Porte
has determined on replacing it himself,
which at first seemed TO satisfy every.
body. Bus. unfortunately. the new star
bore on The back an inscription in latin
at which the Greeks and Armenians took
offense, and refused to assist at the cere.
mony of the erection. Then the Ro
man Catholics, who possessed the key
of small door OF the Church Of Beth
lehem, insisted on having the key OF the
principal door, and permission to con-
s,ruc. in the Church separate altar and
a veslry room. The Commissioner gave
them the key Of one OF the three from,
doors of The church, and permission IL
build a vestry in the outer court. He
attempted also to regulate the hours OF
the respective services; but in this he
failed, as each of the different commu-
Mons insisted on being first, and the
Greek Patriarch, considering all these
concessions as attacking The long recog-
nized rights of the Greeks, left Jerusa.
lem, and went 10 pro,es, al Constantine.

TREASURE FOUND.

Yesterday, while the laborers were
employed in digging out the foundation
of the first Presbyterian Church, (Dr.
Bullard's.) situated on Fourt street, be-
tween ST. Charles stree. and Washing
ton avenue. they came suddenly upon a
heap of silver coin. There was gem
eral grabbing among the workmen for
il, and by that means il was divided a.
mong then. A gentleman who was
standing near. and who is our informant.
says he has little idea what amount OF
money there was so found; he thinks
there was coin enough to fill hat
The coin was of different denominations.
As we have heard of no other particulars
of the finding. we cannot account in any
way for the presence Of the money in
that spot.-Mo. Rspub. 18th.
