eAnsnID AND RosrccArs

 ] The Chicago Iuter-Ocean. in d ioua editorial on the Gariieid-Rosec5au mat : ter, says Gn this connection the letter of Garfield to toR5secTaas, written ss army ] headquarters in June, 1888. becomes iu- teresting. The dispatches affect grea. mystery as to this letter and intimate that when published it vii create a com motion. There is no mystery about the letter, as We stated last week. It was published years ago and has been, cer- tainly for the last fourtesu years, accos- slble to any who care 70 go over the r5- ports on the conduct of rhe war. The i queer feature about the letter business has been tine assumption that the letter contained the expression Of views SD wholly unlike what Garfield had said to Rosecrans himself as to cou uvict the Chief of Staff Of duplieity or double dealing. This assumption was absurd. and all the general officers of the old Army of Cum berland, knew il was absurd Garfield, in his letter to Rosecrans referred to in the dispatches, expressed h,s views fully and freely, and in after yelrs made no secret of it. In fact, he was ID the habit of saying to his friends that in no case had his judgment been more clearly vim dicated than in the case of his free expo sition of his views to Rosecrans. There never was any glamour of uncertainty or mystery about Garfelds letter to Rosecrans. As Chief of Staff. he had gathered information as to the strength of our own forces, and Ina l come into possession of information as 70 the rebel forces and plans.
 Writing on the 12th Of June. 1863, Garfield answered the objection Of sev- enteen different generals opposed to a forward movement. and showed the ex- act fighting strength ot Rosecrans army. Then he submitted insideration Of his own views, making nine points in his letter to Lincoln or Chase, including the following:
 First-Bragg's army $ now weaker than 1t has been since the battle of Stone River, and Is likely to be for the present, while our army has reached its maxim um strength, and We have no right to expect endorsements Tor several months, if at all
 Fifth-The chances are more than even that a sudden and rapid movement would compel a general engagement, and the defeat cf Bragg would be m the highest degree disastrous to the re- beIlion
 Sixth-The turbulent aspect of poll tics in the loyal States renders a decisive blow against the enemy at this time of the highest importance to the success Of the Government a5 the polls, and in tne enforcement Of the Conscription AcJ.
 Seyenth-Tbe Government and the War Department believe that this army ought to move upon the enemy. The army deslres # and the country is anx- iously hoping Tor it.
 Eighth Our true objective point is the rebel army, whose last reserves are substantially in the field, and an efiec tive blow will crush the shell, and soon be followed by the collapse Of the rebel government.

Science Of Perfumes.

By a process known as entieurage, which IS the exposure of beef fat to fresh flowers in close boxes until II IS thorough ly permeated and charged with their odors, the perfumes of six flowers are ob- tained, which could in no other manner known to science be. preserved apart
 from the fresh petals. Those flowers are
 violet, iasmin, tube-rose. orange flower
 and cassia (cinnamOn 1OCer.l From
 those six there are fifty or more combi-
 nations made for the stimulation of the odOrs of other flowers. Sweet pea IS
 made with iasmin and orange flower; hyacinth IS counterfeited by Jasmin and tube-rose.

AuoSG the most wise recolnmenda- lions of that incarnation of wisdom, the San Francisco Report, is the following relative to the removal of the Indians Ii says that the Commissioner of Indian Affairs favors the removal of the Apache, Navajo and Mescalero Indians m New Mexico. to a suitable reservation in h. dian Territory. The Commissioner of Indian Affairs would be either knave or a fool if he did not favor the change. Most of the gentlemen who have hitheT- to had control of Indian affairs have been guilty ot what might be termed criminal foolishness, for their weak vaeil- latinc action has cost the country mll' lions of dollars and many hves. Let us hone that the Commissioner of Indian Affairs really favors the removal oi the Indians from New Mexico. Let us also hope that in time he will see the wisdom of removing such savages as can be caught from Arizona.
