young lady friend, made their appearance at headquarters, and asked hospitality. He commands the gun-boat flotilla in the Potomac. His wife is quite a sweet, pretty woman, is the daughter of a navy officer, and was born at Pensacola when my sister, Mrs. Dallas, was there, and is named after her and Margaret. The young men on the staff turned out with alacrity and fitted up a tent in which they are quite comfortable. camp near Falmouth, Va., March 13, 1863. I am glad you went to Professor Cresson's experiments on the polarization of light, which must have been very interesting, even though unintelligible! Captain Magaw and ladies left us to-day. Though we were utterly unprepared for such visitors, we managed to make them quite comfortable, and they left delighted.

ard wrote, August 17: Sumner is contending with death in the mountains of Pennsylvania. Seward's Life, vol. II. p. 287. Though quickly prostrated by attempts at walking, He was able to take daily rides on horseback. Among friendly visitors to Cresson were Rev. Dr. Furness, Anson Burlingame, Mr. Coffee, afterwards of the attorney-general's department at Washington, and Mrs. Swisshelm. Sumner wrote to Giddings, August 15:— Your speech helped my convalescence. I read it with delight.me of a public reception on my return home. I am sorry; I am against it.
