A TELEGRAHHIc FEAT-The Franklin
Telegraph Company have. for the past
two weeks, been constantly sending and
receiving kilograms between this city and
Boston at the same time upon one wire I!
This feat was accomplished upon some OF
the lines in Germany 10 1855, and also by
means OF the Hughes instrument in 1853,
from Boston 10 Springfield, but has never
been made g practical success, in any coun-
try or upon any lines, until the present
time. Tue principle upon which this in
sirum mt is worked is through d;si-ion
OF current through double coil magnets,
the coils of which are wound in Opposite
directions, and the current made to divide
oy the introduction of resistance coils to
equal &c the resistance of the main line
SO that the current from the battery at one
end passing around the coils at the same
end produces the effect of repelling with
the same power upon one roll as it attracts
the armature upon the other. On the sig
nails arriving at the terminus of the circuit
the electricity passes around but one OF The
coils, thus disturbing tie equilibrium and
producing the same Effect as is usual in the
passage of current around the common
electric magnet--Ntp York Null

REMARKABLE DISCOVERY IN TENNEs-

REMARKABLE DISCOVERY IN 1ENNES-
sEE.-rhe Chattanooga Union says that
Mr. William Staples, while digging, recent
ly, in salt lick on his farm, Twelve miles
northeast of Kingston, Tenn, struck a
solid limestone rock, about seven feet be-
low the surface. He found in it q well,
about eight inches in diameter, filed with
very salt water After the discovery of
the vel, Mr.. Staples prosecuted his in
vestigstions. and found to his surprise, a
line Of salt kettles, or rather the remains
or salt kettles. The kettles were of stone
ware, made of the same material as that
used by the Indians for their home ware,
such as plates, dishes, etc. The kettles
were broken, but the curvature indicated
that they we're about three feet in diameter,
aud were about forty in number. A most
striking fact connected with this discovery
is that these kettles were found at depth
of seven feet below the surface of the
ground. Growing above them were trees
poplar AMI oak-which Were EVIL eltly
two centuries old.
