aa- A writer in the Mechanics Naga-
zine. who says he has had three pairs OF
boots last him six years, and thinks that
he will not require any more ior six years
to come, tells how he treats them:
u put pound each of taliow aud rosln
in a pot on the fire when melted and
mixed, apply it hot to the boots with a
oainter's brush, until neither the sole nor
upper leather will soak any more. Ii 1t
is dcs;rous that the boots should take an
immediate polish, dissolve an ounce OF
wax in a teaspoonful Of turpentine and
lampblack A day or two after the boots
are treated with the rosin and talloW, rub
over them this wax and turpentine, but
not before the fire. Thus the exterior
will have a coat of wax alone, and shine
like mirror. Tallow and grease become
rancid, and rot the stitching OF the leath-
er; but the rosin gives it an antlseptlc
quality which preserves the whole.

an amusing scene on one OF our suburban

young lady, got up in the highest style OF

glory of a 6ye-dollars-a yard silk, twenty
dollar bonnet. and three hundred dollar

circumference of the lady's crinollne.-
The Young lady screamed, while the dog
made rapid circles, shutting the air, and
evidently bewildered to know what had
become of the coon. The situation OF the
Young lady was critical and embarrassing.
She was afraid to move lest the coon wod
bite. and the coon, declined to leave his
retreat until the dog had retired. Finally
the dog was stoned off, the boy dragged
the coon from his hiding-place, and the
Young lady went her way, with lively
consciousness Of having experienced new

correspondence OF the Cincinnati Gazette. !
If the rebels should conclude to resign their
cherished city to the Federal troops, the opin-
ion prevails that it will be only to make q more
desperate and decided stand at the village
OF Eastpert, some six miles south OF their pres
emit location. at this place the junction is
formed between the Macon and Montgomery
railroads, and 1t is supposed much more for
midable works, both military and artificial, are
located. The city Of Atlanta merely Is clearly
OF little importance In the eyes of the Com
manding General as desirable military posi-
ton. Had the object been solely to take that
place, the matter would have been concluded
long ago, for there has not been day in the
past four weeks when our army could not have
occupied 1t by one OF the most simple move
ments known to military men. But Sherman
does not want Atlanta unless he can also re-.
ceive Hoods whole army within his lines as
prisoners Of war Hood well understands our
commanders main object. He therefore racks
his already almost exhausted brain for new
plans which may assist him in warding off the
final blow until the Ia test possible moment and
evidently believes that by presenting a bold
front and assuming q defiant attitude he will
deceive even Sherman, the man who can see
far into and divine the intentions OF q willy,
subtle foe. -.. -

5 O'CLOCK p. M.


The latest accounts from the front aye to the
effect that the result of the fighting on
Thursday on the Weldon road was most dis
astrous to the rebels. The previous reports or
their terrible losses In men are fully confirmed.
The retal dead lay three or four deep all over
the field, and the scene is said to have been
more CHASTITY than on any other battle field OF
the war of the same extent As our men
fought for the most part behind defences,
winch though slight, afforded some protection,
.ne loss on our side was not third Of the rebel
~ seems that Hancock's withdrawal on the
nlsnt OF the battle was in accordance with
Paesious orders from Gen. Grant, and was
not compulsory from the rebels. Hancock had
