Our latest information from Kilnatr;ck
wa WAS up TO O'Clock yesterday morning.
Then ne was reported at Spotsylvania and
on the trot. Of Custar we have positive
Kno"iedge that his long lines of cavalry
aashed rapidly through Madison C. H.
before daylight yesterday morning. It is
reasonably supposed by Tribune's sps-
ciai who left the Court House at noon
that Custar had engaged the enemy at
one O'Clock, for heavy cannonading was
heard at that hour in the direction Of
Orange G. H., and it continued up to
dark.

marched out of the town to the Rapidan.

A genuine salamander has at length made
his appearance in our midst, and amused
himself by languid peregrinations through
flames excited for his especial benefit. There
is something startling in the advent of this
phenomenon, who rejoices in incandescence,
and considers it a good joke to be red hot.
A practical realization OF the old fables, CON
cocted for the benefit Of sundry ancient saints
and witches is more than we anticipated.
But wonders never cease. NO sooner does
one astound the world by provoking his a
bility to walk upon the waters, than rival
appears, bidding defiance to the terrors Of
cookery, taking his siesta upon broiling en-
bers, and gambolling in an atmosphere Of
$50 degrees Fahrenheit.
More than one Of the charlataDs who vag-
abondized through Europe in old times laid
claim tn modified appropriateness to the
effects of heat, and by the way Of testimony,
drank molten lead and masticated Goals OF
fire. Robert Houdin, the French prestldlgita-
teur, tells us that the hands may be miners
ed in molten metal without harm. But all
these things are flat, stale, and Improbable
when compared with the deeds OF this novel
natent saIafnander, who exults during
long imfnurenent in frey furnaces. The
ntiiItv Of this invention can scarcely be over
estimated. When man can, in moment,
array himself in suit which is practically
invnlnerable to the fiercest flames, and yet
cucumber himself so little that his normal
freedom Of motion is tinmpaired, we may
well stop to consider the important results
which are attainable through its general In
PRODUCTION. Although the invention may
as yet be, and probably is, imperfect 1t has
at last afforded basis upon which the sclen-
tific minds of the country may base expert
ments having in view its final Perfection

Gone from the Fold"

81 But oh, for the touch of a vanished hand,
The sound Of a voice that is still
On, COME back from the shores Of the Great Unknown
Come, and bid my split rejoice
Let me clasp your little wee hand in my own,
And once more let me hear your sweet voice.
Oh, the days have been long since you went away
Aud the nights have been deary and cold,
And my heart tbro' the day and the night will stray
Wish my lamb that has gone from the fold,
Still, others calling for love and for care,
And Pm leading them tenderly on;
But there's one dear face that miss everywhere,
And weep for my lamb that is gone.
How long to clasp it, that little soft hand;
And to play with her rnglets of gold;
But an angel has bourne from a cherished band,
Ny lost lamb to the heavenly fold.
Oh da Ring look down from your beautiful home,
With the love in your dear angle eyes;
Come near me and guide me, when God shall say
s'come,'' E- st emo. ...a.
With your own little hands, 20 The skies.

THE New FLAG for the Confederacy il
the present pattern before Congress is
adopted, will be decided improvement
on the one now in use. The new, in
stead Of All entire white field, has red
bar tilling one'half of the field; and when
hanging against the staff, does not present
the pale dag of-truce appearance that
the old does. We understand that the
new design is approved by General Lee
as adding to the distinctness of our pre-
sent flag, but is referred by him to naval
gentlemen, as being letter judges of such
matters. Commod Forrest, Captain
5. 5. Lee, and other officers of the navy
approve the new des.sn; and it was re-
ported on favorably yesterday by the

recommed its adoption. The new design
