Sheridan at Winchester.

"Sheridan at Winchester is the
cember Atlantic, by Maj. B. w. Crown
enshield, First Massachusetts Cavalry,
written because of talk that Sheridan s
ride was myth, and because of other
incorrect statements as to that cam
paign, than which there was none more
brilliant in the War, if, indeed, any to
rank with it, Up to the time when
Sheridan was assigned to the command
ofthe Shenandoah Valley, which was our
true battlefield, where we could force
the Confederates TO fight us in an open
and fertile country with good roads,
had been field ofdisgrace to our arms.
1t was distinguished by an almost I'M
broken course of failures and defeats,
and at the time when Sheridan was put
in command the Confederate Gen.
Early-a most enterprising General
had had such run of success that his
troops thought themselves invincible.
The writer in the atlantic does justice
to Sheridan's qualities as General in
the highest sense. There has been
some talk that he is dashing trooper,
but not General for an army and a
campaign. The logic Of this seems to
be that because his career has been dis
tinguished for enterprise, activity, and
for attacks which were uniformly bril-
liant and successful, he can have no
idea of grand strategy. So there were
many that wrote Bonaparte down as a
mere artilleryman, who knew nothing

A Field for Exploration.

We understand that Stanley, the
great African explorer, is thinking of
fitting out an expedition to penetrate
the far interior of Maine. In the Vi
cinity of Mooselocmaguntic and Mo
lechunkamunk there is believed to be a
large tribe Of wild people called Srek-
cabneerg; whose chief is named Esahc
Nolos. They are said to live in very
primitive manner, using old hoop-skirts,
shovel-handles, stove covers, and such
things for currency. In times of war it
is said they have mustered as many as
10000 warriors.

Three Chapters in the Life of Boy.
CHAPTER I. "ITs A BOY"

CHAPTER l. "ITS A BOY"
His advent is heralded in the brief
but strong sentence just quoted. No
matter what hopes have been INDUCED
concerning gil babies, there is some
thing in the pithy announcement, " Its
boy, (which dispels all fanciful dreams
and sets everybody on the prose basis.
His very voice, as it utters a defiant
war-whoop to the grand army of hu-
mainly, tells the story to experienced
years. The visions of dainty girl dar-
ling very soon vanish before this positive
piece of prose, who kicks his sturdy
heels through the delicate pink socks
intended for his sister, and who grows
as red as a turkey cocks head at
Thanksgiving times when he expects to
show off to good advantage before
callers. He persists in an abnormal
development of nose and puffness about
the eyes, along with several other little
tricks known only to interested parties.
Parents and nurses become reconciled
and accept him on trust, seeing no other
alternative. He energies from his puffy
and rosy obstinacy to a roly-poly, wide
awake thing of beauty, which is joy
fully one-half of the time. There is a

Dreamy face and rosebud mouth,
Breath like spring winds from the south,
Eyes disclosing more than lies
Hedged beneath the Bonded skies
OF a day in May.
So, when days grow longer sweeter,
Grow the rare June hours completer;
And the winters time for showing
Leaves the June wind chance for blowing.

Where I'll never say.

SONG.

i.
THERE'S garden by river,
Where the grasses bend and culver
On the rivers reedy edges.
Roses crimson all the hedges,
And leafy lane runs down
Through the meadows to town,
In winding way.
But where lies that garden blowing,
Where that river, still flowing,
And the lawn through meadows going,
shall never say.
II.
Something fairer than rose
In that unknown garden grows.
Something sweeter then the rhyme
Sung by birds in lilac time;
Fairer than dream of youth,
Thought all lost to care and ruth.
Something with heart like May;
Rose and lily all in one;
Golden hair caught from the sun;
Eyes with laughter overrun.
What? I'll never say.
