ART MkTT8Rs.-Here Is an article on art,
eyidently by Beard, he who delights to and so
well does paint bears, godtees, and other ami
mails Of the hirsute tribe: ..rn,
One OF the most important Accomplishments
for portrait painter In these times is TO know
how 70 paint hair. Formerly, this was Of In
ferior consequencei but fashion has now rem
dered II indispensable. In walking now-a-
days either through streets or fine art gal
leries, where bearded men, or the pictures Of
them, meet one at every step, 1t Is difficult TO
realize the idea that there was time, and that
not SO long ss9, when the use Of the razor was
in England. Those were the days when q
beard was held to indicate Ga confounded
foreigner," :" and when tho moustache forbidden
to the infantry, was permitted only 70 dra-
goons. Now, men of all ages and classes and
calllngs wear beards, to the manifest improve
ment mot only of their personal appearance,
but Of their bealth also, rs 49,. Ip st' go n,
This simultaneous and multitudinous reac-
tion In favor Of Natures ordinance speaks
well for the enlightenment Of the age, for In
this eapricious climate the beard serves sani-
tary as we'll as an ornamental purpose, and to
take 1t off once In every four7and-twenty hours
is about as nonsensical q thing as a man can
do, Wdl might Byron have cried out with
anguish hgainst the torture entailed upon mems
scbins by Q fantastic fashionj and well nigh,

THE REBELS COULD Nor STAND FIKs.-H
will be remembered that Gen. Samuel Jones,
the rebel commander at Charleston, 3. o., notl
fed Gen. John g. Foster, commander Of the
Union forces on the islands In front OF that
city, that unless the Union batteries ceased
firing upon the town, fifty Union prisoners
would be placed In position most exposed 70
the Federal shells. Gen. Foster denounced
this as barbarous threat, and replied To Jones
that should such thing be done, he would
place ffty rebel officers In . situation OF cor
responding danger; and fifty rebel officers
were at once sent to him, by the War Depart
ment, that he might at once retaliate. Jones
carried out his purpose, and Gen. Foster
erected houses In front Of the battery on Cum
mings, upon q spot subject 10 the rebel fire, In
which he proposed placing the rebels. Jones
confined our officers In houses between King
and Meeting streets.
The rebels finding that the houses into which
their friends were TO be exposed were right In
the range Of their own guns, gave up the
heatheniBh plan, and agreed upon terms OF ex-
change. Yesterday morning the steamer Full
ton, having over fifty officers on board, touched
at Fortress Monroe, hoping to find orders from
the War Department stating the disposition 70
be made of the gentlemen, but as no orders
had been received, the steamer sailed last
evening for New York, and from there the
gentlemen will proceed to Washington. Among
the officers are Gen. Wessells, Gen. Hickman,
Gen. Scammon, Gen. Shaler, Gen. Seymour,
Col. Horace @. Lee, Of the eth Massachusetts
! and eleven other Oolonels, eight Lieutenant
Colonies, and twenty-five Majors. Several o
these officers were In town yesterday. TheJ
looked somewhat the worse for the wear.
We met Col. Lee at the Atlantic Hotel. .H'
had passed through all the rebel prison houses
Upon his capture, he was taken to Libby
where the sutierings Of himself and companion
was most acute. From Richmond they wer

: were pAroled whenever our batteries cease
0 firing, and were treated with some degree

this they werS permitted to spend In sue

TIE REBELS IN SALKM HARBoR.- Quite q
little scare was created one afternoon last week,
by the appearanee In Salem harbor of "a long,
low, black, rakish," and altogether very sus-
picious-looking craft, that worked slowly up
the channel Sunday all the way, aud when
nearly within range Of tho guns Of Fort Lee,
suddenly went round and stood out 10 sea. Ali
was at once intense excitement in the harbor
forts. The long roll was beat, the guns OF Lee
and Pickering were turned upon the channel
way, aud the garrison went 70 work putting up
cartridges as speedily as possible. Sergeant

and addressed himself TO preparation for Wig

ell attack, so far as possible, there being but
three guns mounted, no ammunition in the
magazine, and nobody but the sergeant to work
the pieces. A boat guard was established, and
system OF signals arranged TO communicate
information OF the enemy's approach. The

ance OF this kind Of VAT material has been
growing In The estimstion Of the country from
the start Of the hostilities. Some people thought
at the beginnIhs that cavalry was Of but little
cured of that deiuslon.. The rebels demon

preserving the stock on hand. Our present
purpose 10, however, to speak Of the economi-
cal uses TO which the Government horse is now
put after having BEEN "mustered out of the
service" Last year the disabled and con-
demned animals were sold for lees than song
apiece to contractors, who, In fact, purchased
only the hide, took 1t OF, and LEFT the carcass
on Government hands. Then there was the
cost OF removing and burying at some little
distance beyond Arlington Heights. The scs
cumulation Of so much animal matter Conc
hundred horses day at the lowest) In any To-
cality near the city was a positive evil, aud
burying 1t In tho earth in great reservoirs,
positive waste.
A few months ago, the War Department
made . contract with parties who utilize the
dead horses In such . manner that they are
enabled to pay tho Government nfty thousand
dollars year more for tho condemned animals
and sac 10 them nfty thousand dollars
besides, making yearly profit to the United
