ROUTES TO TIE EAsT.-1t is matter Of
surprise, not to t6y Of actual unhel1ef. to
many, If not most Of the people of the
Northwest, West and Southwest, TINT from
Green Bay ard Lacrosse, on the North, to
Cairo and St. 1ouis, on the South, the
shortest route TO New York, Philadelphia and
Baltimore, lies through Pittsbu1g. When we
add that this route, go generally supposed to
be cIrrnitous one to New York, is actually
nearly ono hundred miles shorter, than the
route rim Toledo, Buffalo, md Albany, and
sixty miles less distance than via Toledo g.
Erie Railway; this fact becomes only the
more astounding to the large number Of per-
sous who have heretofre regarded Buffalo as
on the direct line to New York. A further
advantage Of the route via Pittsburg, il, that
there IS but one change OF cars, between CHI.
cago and New York or Philadelphia, an nd
vantage Of great moment to ladies and fami-
lies, and yFithal Of no less comfort to bnsl-
ness men. AL these advantages can be Sc.
cured, by buying your tickets to the East
over the Rittsburg, Fort Wayne d Chicago
Railway, which can be llad in Chicago, and
at I'll the Ticket Offices Of all prominent
lines in the West.
The reduction Of fare just made by this line,
to e1s 90 from Chicago to New York, q priv
dleee belonging to the shortest line to make
the rates, should induce onr people generally
to try this new and admirably appointed line.
whereby they can reach the East in less time
and for 4 lower fire than BY any other route.

FROM CUMBERLAND, MD.

FROM CUMBERLAND, MD
The Cumberland Md Union of Saturday
contains the particulars Of the krlef occnpa-
ton Of that city by Imbodens Cavalry. On
Wednesday morning eally, lJune it, cur
eyes we're greeted with q battle array Of cavalry
and artillery, drawn up on hill TO the east Of
and con handing the city Two discharges OF
their cannon soon convinced u that We were IN
the power Of the Contederates, and sent the
worn out cavalry and remaining railroad trans
''skedaddIing" to points OF safety. Ihe stores
we're speedily closed up, and our business
places soon assumed Sabbath aspect. Pres
entity TWO gray backs, bearing tag OF truce,
appesred on Baltimore street. This was re-
sponded to By deputation OF citizens, With
similar fag, headed by Valentine /. Buckley,
ESQ, acting mayor The result Of the consul
tation was that the citizens and all private
pyopety were to be strictly respected, and that
ali necessary articles taken were to DC paid or
receiptad for.
Tn short time the enemy entered the city,
their first business, apparently, being 20 secure
all the horses they could find, which vas
very small number, and they OF an inferior
quality, the precautlon having been taken the
day previous to remove the most valuable
ones. Boots and shoes, hats, dry goods and
clothing, were called for, and several OF our
merchants opened their stores to supply the de-
mand, receiving in payment for their goods
Confederate script at heavy discount. We
saw one store clerk exhibiting $50 bill which
he had received for ten yards of calico. We
have not heard Of single instance where pay
ment was refused for articles received. The
government warehouses, stables, hospital build
ing, and postofhce, were unmolested. The
railroad, depot, and extensive machine shops
remain in perfect order. The only damage of
any kind, that We witnessed, was at the tele,
graph station, said to have been done by In
boden himself, where the wires were broken
down and other fixtures deranged the instru-
ments however, had been previously removed
by the operators.
The conduct of the Confedeaates throughout
Was gentlemanly and elected the appreciation
Of our citizens. They were veil clothed, arm
ed and mounted, and exhibited in no respect
evidence o. starvation Or raggedness. which is
too frequently imputed to all who compose the
Confederate army. Our only regret is that
such men are not engaged in better cause
Several young men from our city were in their
ranks, anc seveaal others joined them at this
time. They we're evidently uneasy while in
our city, and one Or two panics started them
20 their saddles. At about half past ten they
hastily retired from the town and took their
departure for parts unknown.
