CoLoRrD REGIMENTS TO HAVE FULL PAY OR
MONA correspondent of the New York
Tribune, writing from Gen. Gillmore's camp,
relates the following respecting the 54th and
55th (colored) Massachusetts, regiments,
which, it will be remembered, were largely
recruited from the West:
The colored regiments from Massachusetts,
have refused to receive the partial pay prof
fered by the United States paymasters of $40
per month, subject to deduction Of s. per
month for clothing. Maj. Sturgis, recently
appointed by Gov. Andrew, Of Massachusetts,,
to visit them and induce them to accept from
the State Of Massachusetts, So per month, to
equalize their pay with that of white troops,
refuse to give up their point by accepting
the money. They claim that they were en-
listed as soldiers, and that the pay Of soldiers
is $13 per month; that they are not ''laborers
in the military employment Of the United
States !" and that to accept $40 per month
would be to acknowledge for themselves
that status, and to place their officers in the
anomalous positions Of being commissioned
and paid as commanding regimental organiza-
tons of laborers, which do not and cannot
exist under the law. They further state that
they are soldiers Of the United States, and
not of Massachusetts,. ...t

A CLASSIC misunderstanding to testimo-
ny which is scarcely to be disputed, the sun
could never have shone upon less lovely
object than Roman lady in the days of the
Caesars, when she opened her eyes in the
morniug-or, rather, let US say, as she ap-
peared in the morning. for before she opened
her ewes great deal had to be done. When
she retired to rest, her face had been covered
with plaster composed of bread and ass's
milk, which had dried during the night, and
consequently presented in the morning an
appearance ofcrscked chalk. The purpose of
the ass's milk was not only to preserve the
de'icacy Of the skin, Hbut to renovate the
lungs and so strong was the belief in the
efficacy of the specific, that some energetic Ia.
dies bathed themselves in it seventy times in
the course of single day. AS for Popose,
the favorite wife of Nero, she never set out on
q journey without taking in her train whole
herds ofshe. asses, that she might battle when
ever she pleased so to do. The Plaster Of
Paris bust having wakened in the morning in
10 cracked condition, it WAS the Office of host
of female slaves to mature it into perfect beau
tyn To clear the field for further operations,
the frst.of these gently washed away with
lukewarm ass's milk the already crumbliug
mask, and left smooth face, to be colored by
more reconcile artists. The slave whose vo-
cation it was to paint the cheeks, delicatelp
laid on the red and white, having moistened
the pigment with her own saliva. The appar-
eut nastiness of this operation was diminished
by the consumption Of . certain number Of
scented lozenges, which, if the slave neglec-
ted to take, she suffered corporal punishment.

A Doc MAIL TRA1N.-The following extract
from private letter from Pembina shows
how the mail is transported from that point to
Crow Wing: - +" -.-...s --s
should have written to you four days ago,
but the mail had to lay over one trip on &C.
count of the lameness Of one of the carrier
dogs. You will probably think it strange that
the great United States mail should be delay.
ed several days for such cause, but never
theless it was. The mall is carried from here
to Crow Wing, distance of three hundred
and fifty miles, by dog trains, and if one set
of dogs get foot sore when their turn comes
the mail has to lay over. To morrow they
say the dogs will be right and the mail will
60 forward. I saw the first dog mail train
leave here on last mail day. 1t consisted of
three middling sized dogs. They looked
more like wolves than dogs. They had regu-
lar harness, very fancifuliy ornamented, and
