b Field Meeting of the Essex Institute.

81 A Field Meeting of the Essex Institute is to
be held at Kittery, Me-, Thursday, Aug %
As these meetings are particularly interesting
and pleasant, combining pic-nic with a sci
entific gathering and addresses, short de-

ii Q membe rs of the Institute and their guests
sometimes to the number of several hundred)
are accustomed to start in the morning of the
appointed day for some place attractive for its
history and facilities for scientific observation
Arrived on the ground, the members dispense
some to visit houses or places famous in the To-
cal history OF the tOwn-some to gather shells
plants minerals, or other Objects in which they
may be interested; some merely to enjoy the
scenery of the beach Or hills or woods AT
noon the party reassembles. the picnic baskets
are unpacked, and all employ themselves in
gaining that tranquil and satisfied state of mind
which follows such enjoyment. The meal is
taken in some grove or hall or building arrang-
ed for this beforehand. After lunch the meet
ing is called to order, and the topics suggested
by the researches of the morning are discuss
ed. Scraps of history, the exhibition and de-
scription of rare plants or birds, remarks upon
any peculiar point of the naturalist's studies
brought to light in the rambles of any of the
members, form the intellectual portion of the
treat. The assembly breaks up in season to
allow fair margin of time for the visitors to
prepare for the journey home. e,, 5'.5

held only in Essex County, Mass. This one is
appointed in Maine, in the hope that some o

who would enjoy a day spent in this pleasant
manner, are invited to attend. The arrange
ments are as follows Leave Portland for Kit

How 1T FEELS 10 BE SCALPED.--The state
ment of William Thompson, the survivor of
the Plum Creek massacre who brought his own

About o'clock, Tuesday night, myself and

came to where the break proved to be, we saw
a lot of ties piled on the track, but at the same
moment ao,i Indians jumped Up from the grass all
shots in return, and then as,the Indians press

singled me out, and galloped up to us. After
coming to within ten feet of me he
fired, the bullet entering my right arm. See
ing me still run, he "clubbed his rifle" and
knocked me down. He then took out his
knife, stabbed me in the neck, and making a
twirl round his fingers with my hair, he COM
menced saving and hacking away at my scalp.

doctor IN attending to his cases, and beats the
parson In the management of the "devil."
This is the way an English peer tells an

wife. His foot came in contact with something
under the sofa which attracted his attention

boot, and hauled from beneath the sofa one of

~ The REMOVAL OF SHERIDAN; PROTEST OF
GENERAL GRANT. The Boston Advertisers
special Washington dispatch of the 10th inst,
gives the following important intelligence
The President to-day sent General Grant an
order directing the removal of General Sheri-
dan and the assignment OF General Thomas to
his command. General Hancock will replace
Thomas, and Sheridan will be sent to Missouri
General Grant on receiving this order went
directly to the White House, aud earnestly
urged the Withholding of the order The .Pres-,
dent emphaticalIy refused. 1t is understood
that General Grant then suggested certain mo-
dlficatiohs; whether these were allowed is not
known, but as far as the removal of Sheridan
Is concerned, the President gave General Grant
to understand that the order was final.
Subsequently correspondence passed be-
tween General Grant and the President, which
was on the part OF General Grant a protest
against the contemplated removal of General
Sheridan. No allusion had been made to the
correspondence at the White House M to ten
o'clock Tonight, excepta statement conveying
the idea that no correspondence on the subject
mas taken place; But for the delay caused by
the interview and the correspondence men
TONED, the order would have been forwarded
for the removal OF General Sheridan to-day
BY the terms of the Presidents order to Gene
raj Grant, the order of removal will tomorrow
be transmitted to General Sheridan through
the ofhce of the Adjutant General Townsend,
and not through the headquarters of the army
1t is very doubtful whether General Grants
name will appear in the order butitis now be-
lieved at theiWar Department that the sigma
ture will be :: By order of the President, Il. d.
Townsend. Adjutant- General" The Presi-
dents obstinacy in this matter is severely con-
demned by some of his warmest supporters.
and his attempt to make it appear as a measure
entirely separated from politics, is laughed at
by the same parties. 4E9TR
