Col. TiIden and his Regiment.

The return of Col. Tilden, of the Maine
Sixteenth, TO his command, after his long in
generation at Richmond, seems to have been
made the occasion for great rejoicing and ju-
bilation by the "boys" of that regiment. The
regiment had its headquarters at Mitchelrs
Station, Va, and an officer writing to his
friend in this city, under date of March 3lst,
says:
We had glorious time the 10Th in honor
OF our noble Colonel He arrived here the
18th at z. M. The regiment was in line
and received him with three rousing cheers.
Alter saying few words to the regiment
they were dismissed, and the officers reported
to the Colonel's headquarters, where he had
pleasant chat until midnight The next
morning the men presented him with a mag
niflcent horse and saddle. The Col. was very
much affected, so much so that he could not
speak without tears starting into his eyes.
The above ceremony was followed by foot
ball and other games. officers and men taking
part, which lasted throughout the day, and
these were followed by dinner at s o'clock.
appetite for which had been sharpened by the
festivities of the day, and which seems to
have been discussed in a way perfectly salts

DESTRUCTION OF THE WINTHROP HOUSE,
BosToN.-The Winthrop House, corner of
fremont and Boylston streets, Boston, was
entirely destroyed by fire on Wednesday
morning. The fire was first discovered in
the second story, which was occupied by the
Free Masons. Nothing in the various Halls
and rooms of the Masonic fraternity was saved.
A large quantity of regalis, jewels, valuable
paintings and other property, amounting 10
about $4,000, was destroyed.
The hotel was kept by Col. Silsby, and con-
tanned about 100 persons in all, some of whom
neighboring houses. The loss of COL Silsby
is about $4,000 in furniture, &C., more than
half of which is insured. The building was
owned by the State Masonic organization, and
cost about S150,O00, which is in great part
covered by insurance.
The loss to the Masons who occupied the
hall will be seriously felt. Much of the rega-
liza and other valuable property was imported
from Paris, and at grea. cost This can hard
ly be replaced; at all events not at present.
The loss of paintings are OF course irreparable
Those OF Washington and Warren were not
surpassed in the country.
The buildings in the neighborhood were in
imminent danger, but were saved by the Nj
agarian floods poured upon them.
The Boston papers OF last evening say that
there is little, if any doubt, that the fire was
the work of an incendiary.

AUGUSTA, April 6, 1864.
~ the Edsfor Of the Press.
The following commissions have been is
sued since my last, viz:
Thirty First Regiment Ilfontry-Albert
G. French, of Fayette, Asst. Surgeon: Ozias
Z. Bartlett, OF Skowhegan, Capt. Co. G.; AL
mon II. Gushee, of Appleton, LIST Lieut.. Co.
G.; Hiram C. Gage, of st. Adams, I'd Lieut..

Thirty Second Regiment Infantry.-E
szer s. Kyes, of Jay, Capt. Co. E; Charles
W. Reyes, of Wilton, LIST Lieut.. Co. E; Jas.
A. Stanley, Of Pennington, I'd Lieut.. Co. f.
Enlistments for the 3lst and ed regiments
are proceeding very satisfactorily. The lat
ter has about 800 men mustered in and the
former some $50.
The friends of the service viii regret to
learn that owing to his private affairs, Col.
George Varney of Bangor, has felt obliged
to decline the position of Colonel of the 31st
regiment. He proved himself splendid Off
Ger by long and arduous service, and as mil
itary man he bears the reputation OF being in
ferior to no one who has ever left the State.
Official notice has been received of the fol-
lowing discharges, viz:
Capt Zadock Washburn, Co. X, 10Th Regt.,
for promotion in the Corps dAfrique.
Capt. William r. Swan, Co. X, 18th Regt.,
resigned.
Asst. Surgeon Wallace Rolan, 10th Regt.,
resigned.
LIST Lieut. Church E. Gates, Co. A, It'll
Regt., resigned.
LIST Lieut.. Samuel Z. Buchanan, Co. A, 9th
Regt., honorably discharged for disability
Governor Cony, accompanied by Col. Garn-
sey Of his staff, left on Monday for Washing
ton, where he will probably remain about two
weeks to attend to public matters.
The cavalry guard house at Camp Coburn
was burned about half past nine o'clock night
before last There seems to be determine
ton on the part of some reckless and mali
eious members of the regiment to destroy all
their barracks before leaving the city. 1t is
. pity soldiers are not made responsible in
money for all damage done by them to gov
eminent property entrusted to their charge
Owing to lack of transportation when the
9th and 18th regiments left, the LIST Battery
was obliged TO remain behind. 1t left, how
ever, on Monday, for your city on its way TO
the Army of the Potomac. This battery,
like all our batteries of mounted artillery,
has been recruited up to the maximum num-
Der. Yours truly.

VANDERBILT CoRNERED.-A New York
correspondent of the Springfield Union, re-
lates the following:
The following story have directly from a
gentleman to whom Commodore Vanderbilt
himself told IT, The finance committee of the
fair called upon the Commodore and solicited
at his hands donation. He answered that
he would give to the fair as much as "any
other man" in New York. Thereupon,- the
committee visited Mr.. A. T. Stewart, and re-
ported to him the offer of the Commodore
Stewart at once drew his check for 100000,
and handed it to the committee, aud they,
armed with the check, again waited upon the
Commodore, and showed him the contribution
of Stewart. Vanderbilt had been cornering
other people for quite while in Harlem
stock, but this time he found himself cornered.
However, he was as good as his word. He
covered Stewards check with check of his
own for like amount.

BANK RoBBERY.-The Bangor Times says
that on Monday, Marshal Farmham received
dispatch from the authorities at st John,
N b, requesting him to arrest certain
"Frank Jones" who would probably arrive in
this city on the Air Line Stage that morning.
He was, so the despatch stated, the Teller Of
the Bank OF st John, and had robbed the
Bank of a sum of money not specified. The
Marshal, accompanied by Deputy Emerson,
drove out on the Air Line road number of
miles, met the stage, found their passenger,
and had him taken to the Office for examin-
alton. Young Cowie, who committed suicide,
was cashier in the Bank of British North
America, and:is supposed:to have been con-
nected with Jones in the crime. Fast living,
expensive habits and tastes have probably
been their ruin.

RUM AND ToBAcco.-The Newburyport
Herald says, 1--WE know OF several men who
have banished butter from their houses, tell
ing their wives and children they must 60
without, because it is fifty per cent. higher
than it was last year. Now rum and tobocco
are four hundred per cent. higher than they
were, but we don't know of one man who alb
stains from their use on that account. There
is nothing wesss isa fAs-aiiy than .resrroi
on domestic affairs, but we suggest to the fe-
males that they allow Of no retrenchment in
the necessaries Of life SO long as the lords Of
the household have money enough for tobacco
and rum at their present prices.

sI- Boston is beginning to wake up to
the importance of providing greater facilities
for commerce. The Journal says that having
built the Western railroad, the capitalists and
busipess men of Boston have acted as though
nothing more was wanting to make Boston
great commercial seaport. Portland has
reached out and diverted the trade of the
Canadas, yet for years the Directors of the
Passumsic road have been Intellectually beg
ging in Boston for means to extend that road
to Montreal, by two different routes, one of
them requiring an outlay of less than mil
lion of dollars.

GEN. HOWARD ON TEMPERANcE.-An ex-
change makes Gen. Howard say, in late
speech, that after entering the Army he fell
into the habit ofdrinking whiskey and offer
ing it TO others; that when stationed in Flori-
da he once offered whiskey to an officer, and
upon his declining, he urged him to drink and
he drank; that short time afterwards he at
tended that officer in the horrors of delirium
tremens. We think there is some mistake
here, for we listened to Gen. Towards speech
before the late Temperance Convention at
Augusta, and we feel quite certain that his
remarks on that occasion not only did not
contain such confession as this, but that
they entirely excluded such a confession
We feel very sure that Gen. Howard never at
any time fell into the habit referred to.

SD- Washington correspondent says,
Hon. Reverdy Johnson's speech in the Senate,
on Tuesday, in favor OF the proposed amend
ment of the Constitution abolishing slavery,
elected the warmest commentator from re-
publican Senators. 1t was considered to have
been the ablest speech of the session. 1t was
delivered without notes. The speaker quoted
from speech of his own in 1S47 recommend
ing Calhoun to put dignifed end to slavery,
TO save 1t from terrible death.

ga Parsonfeld correspondent of the
Haverhill Gazette says that town raises as
many lawyers, doctors and ministers as any
town of its size, and more teachers than most
other towns of the same number of inhabi-
tants. Not many of its people live with a
view of leaving footprints on the sands of
time" Once in a while, some innocent young
person will imagine himself or herself de-
cided genins. They will perhaps take to wri-
ting poetry. But as general thing, as Arte-
mus would say "their lays are not worth as
much by the dozen as the lays of a hen," and
they are generally sensible enough in little
while to find out their mistake.

The Loyal Sunrise says Messrs. Win
slow q G. c. Hall raised last year, on their
farm at Lyndon, Aroostook Co., on 20 acres
OF burned land, 332 bushels of wheat, worth
enough to pay all expense of telling the trees,
clearing the land, seed, sowing and harvesting
the crop, and $50 over. The land will yield
for years net profit of So per acre. This
crop is but an ordinary one for Aroostook.
Usually the crop would have been much lar
ger. Last year was poor one for wheat.
