How IT HAPPENED.-A writer in the
Crescent Monthly, published in New Orleans,
ed with the surrender of Gen. Lee:
The supreme hour was now come, when,
from across Fame's burning ecliptic, where it
had traced, in flaming sheen, its luminous
path OF glory, the proud Aldebaran of the
Southern hope. in all the splendors of its ex-
press, Hyades brightness, should sink to rest
behind the lurid war clouds, in the fateful
western heaven, there to bring out, i'm deaths
dark canopy, the immortal lights Of Immortal
deeds, and spirits great and glorious, shining
forever down upon a cause in darkness like
the glittering hosts upon a world in NIGHT.

CUsHING's IsLAND.-We find the follow

One of the most picturesque islands on our
coast is Cushing's Island, in the entrance OF
Portland Harbor, situated midway between
the forts, and overlooking the channel by
which steamers come and go. On lofty en-
inence, on the island, stands the Ottawa
House, commanding splendid view of the
harbor, of the city, and of the distant noun
tains. This house has been built four years,
years, will accommodate over hundred and
fifty guests, and is provided with every mod
ern convenience, while the facilities for boat
ing, bathing, fishing and other sports cannot
be excelled. Mr.. George Allen, for several
years the popular proprietor Of the Marlboro
Hotel in Boston. has a leased it, and will open
it for the season on the first of June. The
fact is sufficient to warrant a frst-class table
and a constant attention to the wants of
guests. The island itself is about eight times
the size of Boston Common, has lovely beach,
es, browning headland, caves worn by ocean
storms, green fields and valleys, and wooded
knobs and eminences, and will be found very
attractive in the warm months.

full whether the Senate will consider during
the present session the Bankrupt bill just pass

strange, if in the 81 eat press of other matters.
this bill should share the fate of its predeces-
SCR of the last Congress. The question of adj
journment is often discussed among the lobby
members, but is as yet very hard one to solve.
No one less highly endowed with the gift of
prophecy than our oracular Secretary of State
can now venture predictions upon that subject
with safety. The House is now long way
ahead in the dispatch of business, partly
through the operation of the previous ques-
ton" in limiting debate, partly by dint OF
sheer hard work, and partly because in class
of measures involving great amount of la

completed or far enough advanced to develop

engaged upona bust of Gen. Grant. Though
at my last visit TO his studio the model was

progress made, promises to be no less success.
