We were soon filing nit of camp at
a cheery hilt somewhat jerky trot ; and
when we got forward an the road to
Dabney's Mills, the jerkness of our
trot was somewhat augumented,though
we went on nt a pretty good pace con
Ridering the fact that tve were going
over one 01 Old Virginia's "corduroy
roads. They are made by simply lev
elling the ground and laying down
polls and saplings from three to eight
inches in diameter. They certainly
are the roughest roads to travel that
ever were invented either in city or
Country. I have seen horses fall on
them and break both forelegs. A good
horse will not average over three miles
an hour over one of these roads. We
tray idled some twenty miles b-efore
reaching the Mills, Which are very
near what was nt that time the 'Front '
They were not more than three-guar

"I have given him NVilhelmshohe,"
says t h e King of Prussia, in that tele
graphic dispatch to the Queen, his
wife, which briefly but eloquently de
picts a great scene in the drama of
history, There is, indeed, something
highly dramatic in this gift to a bro
ken man. "Where and what manner
of place is Willielmshohe?" Many
readers will ask. It is the Versailles
of Cassel. rt is a elofteau nail pleas
ire park on the east slope on the lin
kelt Tswahl Mountains; and has for
the er),ptive Emperor associations of
peculiar interest, for as mach RH it was
once the fluorite residence of his un
cle, Jerome, sometimes King of NVe..4
phila. This palatial retreat and its,
surroundings are in the luxurious taste
of the last century. There ale hot
houses on an amazing plan; !lone ale
temples of Apollo and Merculy ;
there are aaterlall4, phe,antries, lakes
and tt l'hine-v villa. Theis it a
great fountain, perhaps the hugest iii
the world, for its column of ttater,re ,
mg, to a height of hall feet, is II?. feet ill
thickness. And la , tly, at the farthest
and highest point of the grounthsnear

strange if not preposterous building of

The above map'explaina
The idea of this map is not original•
with me, but is borrowed from the Tri
bune and the other great metropolitan
,journals.
I claim no other merit for this pro
duction (it I may so call it) than that
it is accurate. The main blemish of
the city paper maps, of which it is an
imitation, is, that in them more atten
tion seems paid to artistic picturesque
miss than true geographical reliability.
lintsmudb as this is the first time I
have ever tried to draft and engrave
nmp, or atterop eil anything in the line
of art at all, the commendations the
work hay received and the admiration
it has excited among the people, have
been very vatefuLto my feelings. Anil
it is touching to reflect that by tar the
trioq enthusiastic of these praises have
conic from the people who know noth
ing at all about it.
By an unimportant oversight I have
enizra%ed the map so that it reads
wrong dyad first, except to left handed
people. I forgot that in order to make
it right in print it should be drawn and
engraved upside down. However, let
the student who desires to contemplate
