THE AGxY or THE CrMBERLAxD!. We
love the very sound Of the name, for it was in
this glorious army and under its glorious
commanders, Rosecrans and Thomas, that q
large portion Of our service in the army was
per Tormed. The battles Of Stone River,
Chicamaugs, Mission Fridge and many 9th.
ers almost equally bloody, are stamped upon
memory A. wildly - il the experience were
but OF yesterday. 1t was with no ordinary
pleasure, therefore, that We witnessed the
beautiful paintings and listened to the no
less truthful word dclineations OF Bill d. T.
Travis, better known as sour Special Art
ist," on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings.
His paintings Of the battles and various
scenes Of the campaign Of the Army Of the
Cumberland possess great merit, artistically
and historically; they are exceedingly truth.
ful to nature, and give an accurate idea of
the scenes ofths battle, the camp aud the
march. Mr.. Travis, in our opinion, does
none to much honor to Rosecrans. A year

army rceollec.ions (which we dropped
abruptly, but hope to resume some day., in
which we took precisely the same ground
relative to that great commander, which Mr.
Travis, whose opportunities for observation
were much more extensive than our own,
holds day. History will do the great COM
mander justice. We are glad Mr.. Travis is
doing SO much to disrel the misss which have
been thrown around bis name by his enemies.
Asa ecturer, Mr.. Travis is forcible--
sometimes little too ds nonstra,ivs-anc at
times exceedingly impressive. His descrip>
tive powers are unusually fine. BY correct>
ing few faults Of elocution, and more thor>
oughly checking a rather too ardent temper
ament he will become one Of the most effect
tive speaker. in the country. The charge
that he employs slang" otherwise than in
quotations, is certainly untrue. Mr.. Travis
is . true gentleman, disliked, Of course, BY
the powers Of whisky, but true to principal
true to humanity.
Mr.. Travis delivered temperance lecture
in Morse's Hall on Thursday night, durin.
which he exhibited in bis true light that
greatest enemy Of society, that author ofthree
fourhs Of all the misery and crime in the
country--the dram sellcr. The audience
heartily endorsed him.
Now that the Byron Cheese factory il in
full operation We trust the farmers OF that
par, ofthe county will furnish all the milk
possible and support the enterprise with an
unstinted hand.

What subtle pulse is In thy blood,
Poor bid, that teaches thee to sing,
That tells thee that the fair-eyed Spring
Again TO these rough shores Is wooeds
How dost thou know that skies are fair,
Close pent within q curtained room?
How canst thou argue from thy gloom,
The light and rapture of the air,
know that home-bound swallows fit
Across the opal of the sky,
Ny brain is servant TO my eye;
But how hadst thou hint Of IL?
How canst thou know that ash-buds swell,
That violets peep in sweep surprise;
BY what sense dost thou recognize
The Spring.song Of the croeus bell?
/ am upbraided by thy voice:
For, barred from all thst makes the Spring
To human thought blessed thing,
Thou dost unwearyingly rejoice.
/ learn a lesson, bird, from thee;

When Spring, with all her wealth, is mine,
And the wide worlds aglow for me.

Paris Fashion Items.

Gentlemen have openly adopted lace ruffles
down shirt fronts on grand occasions.
The dress of the season for walking purposes
is a foulard-the shade light faun or cream color,
with fringe of a somewhat darker shade or satin.
A fete was given few days ago by the Mar
duse de Lagrange, after which a splendid sup
Per was served in old Sevres china. The lOveliest
toilets were white muslin covered with lace and
gauze, or tulle. 1t looks like snow fake.
Miles de Moustier have quite adopted this style.
Rnche of tulle muslin with pink-that pink
called HorteDsia-is perfectly tempting The
more white women wear on green lawns, diversi-
fed with cerise satin in small proportions, or
straw, or lilac mauye, the more womanly they
look.
Fruit on bOnnets is spreading into very undue
proportions.
Valepciennes on silk is all the mania still.

Bow TO REMOVE THE SKIN FROM PEAcHEs--As
the time for preserving and canning peaches has
come many q housewife will doubtless be glad
10 know how 10 remove the skin from this de-
1jcious fruit with as little trouble and waste as
possible. The following method from an exchange
deserves TRIAL:
g Make ley as strong as possible Of wood ashes
and soft waler. Fill kettle with the I've, and
when boiling rapidly, drop in twelve or eighteen
peaches and take out again almost Immediately,
and immense them in pail of cold water. Take
one in your hand and you perceive that the rind
VI slip of entirely, leaving round, beautiful
yellow ball throw It immediately INTO anotner
pail of pure water, and 80 proceed till all are
done. This process will not iDjure the favor Of
the finest peach, and once tried the old-fsshioned
way of peeling with knife will not be again
adopted. II the I've is not strong enough, put
into the kettle two dippersful OF clean WOOD
ashes. This is an excellent way to rid snail
onions Of their jackets preparatory to pisklinl
them. Try it,
