We left Baton Rouge at 5 P. NJ, without
having been able to crafty our Unsuitable
Yankee curiosity with trip to Port Hudson,
and reached New Orleans again early this
morning, from which place We propose to en-
bark for the District of Pensacola by the earli-

One word before closing with regard to
communication, which i understand was pub
lished in the Press, rejecting upon Col. Dyer,
who was in command of the Union forces at
the time of the evacuation of the city of Pen
sacola. As an officer who mad an opportunity
of knowing the whole proceedings, from the
first reception of the order to the embarkation
of the last loyal person., must bear witness
that everything was managed judiciously and
prudently. Ii there was any error committed,
it was in allowing too many persons of seces-
sion proclivities to seek the protection of our
flag for the sake of the support which it voueh-
safes to all. The reported burning of the ell
tire city is altogether erroneous. One compa-
ny of nine months regiment set fire to their
quarters just after leaving them, and notwith-
standing the utmost efforts of citizens and
soldiers the fire spread rapidly among a lot of
wooden buildings until nearly two squares
were destroyed. .rI-.
When the fire approached the house of vio-
lent secesh physician, who had before been
protected in his property and liberty, he invi-
ted some of the soldiers to assst him in moving
his household goods, promising them whiskey
for so doing. They worked in good faith until
he had furnished enough whiskey for enthu-
siasm to get the better OF discretion, and then
they turned on their host and inviting in their

Lafayette has luxuriated in anothe,

that las, Friday from fifty to one hund

one were suddenly taken sick, the symp.
toms being those Of mineral poisoning.
The entire party had taken ice cream
at new saloon. After painful per
sonal experience, heightened by fear
that it was a reputation Of the National
Hotel poisoning of Washington, the
party have recovered and have set
their wits to work to divine the cause.
Che nists and doctors found nothing in
the mode OF making the cream, or the
composition Of the treezers, which
solved the mystery. Dr.. Stockham,
however, finds thai the cause lies in the
custom itself, and the circumstances
under which the cream was eaten.
There was sudden change of whea,her

Care OF Harness.

i. Oliver Ayres, apractical harness
maker, Of Kent CO., says :--"Harness
should be kept hung up on wooden
pegs in clean, dry room with a plank
floor, SO that it may be free from damp
ness. When soiled it should be washed
with CASTLE soap suds. Harness that
is in constant use needs olling -four
times year; if only occasionally
brought ou:, as carriage harness, &C.,
twice a year will be sufficient, if the
washing be not neglected. To oil har-
ness, separate all the pieces, and lay
them in water until thoroughly wet
through. Then wash them clean and
allow them to dry sufficiently. To
know when they are in good condition
for oilng, bend strap, and if the wa
ter does not ooze out it is dry enough.
Train oil (whale oiD is sometimes used
but meats foot oil is much better.--Mix
with little lamp black, and with a
brush apply it to both sides Of the
straps. About six hours after oiling,
wash the whole with CASTLE soap and
warm water, let them dry, rub we'll with
a wooden cloth and buckle them to.
gether."
Whale and most vegetable oils in
jure leather. Meats. foot oil, with the
addition of one ounce bees wax TO the
pint Of oil, is the best mixture that can
be used for harness. Soap suds should
only be used with sponge to wipe ofi
the dirt; the leather mist not be soaked
with the suds. A good method of
keeping harness in good condition and
appearance, is to blacken and polish it
exactly ike shoe leather, then app y the
mixture of neals.f5ot oil and boeswax.
