American, that Dr.. n, Z. Fowler, of Var
mouth, has exhibited at the Boston Fair, many
articles of Dentistry and ornamental work
fabricated from the new and singular metal,
Aluminium. If the ingenious Doctor will visit
East Tennessee, We will point out localities,
where the clay Of this section will yield n
large per cent of Aluminium. This metal has
attracted tho attention Of scientific men with.
in the past few years, on account of its light
ness and durability, and being less liable to
be attacked by acids, than most metals the
clay of East Tennessee, yields q greater per

we invite the attention of Minerologists to
this class of our mineral productions, MS we
believe IL can be produced here at less cost,
than at any other place. The Geological re-
sources Of Tennessee, are incalculable, and
only need developing, to render this one of

The Greek of Athens differs as much from the

wife, who were among the first to introduce
education into Greece, still continue their ed

kind-hearted, truly philanthropic, and Christ

amiable couple. Since the time when they

from two to four sous each. Those for Rus
