the cxhi Mtlon by making an extensive contribu-tion of their new works—the result of their sum-mer sketches-while the lahoia of the Academy

members and students during the year formed

an appropriate climax to the whole, Slewing

the collection as an aggregate, it is the finest everrxh'chcd in the do. «d «» especially noticeablefrom the fact that it introduces the works ofmany prnmrent artists never represented herehclorc, like Huntington, Peter*.

THEEXHIBITION.Tbe ArtGtllrry proper was devoted to thenew

works,aid both it ani the ante rooms were thor-oocfcly filled with there works, aboat one hun-dredand fllty tn number. The old pictures hadb.*crremovedsed were hong upon the walls othe lobbies and approaches to the gallery. *lbodtnbs which Lave been passing current for sometime 89 Murillos.

THE *TTEM»\NCE.Tteauendsare, as we nave already Intimated,

wasa large < i e in point of numbers, a brilliantcrc ic pointof appearance. Artists*recepll>asare nothing if not fashionable. Whether la-blonwillkill them. »« it did the poor late Philhar-monic, remains tobe teen, but at present appre-ciation Is measured by a ribbon more or Jess, andthe txir. me©fan-culture hangs more or leesnpoo thesize and shape of the coiffure To besute. fashion mske# bac mistakes gets Hunting-ton mixed up with Blctslxdt, and is confident thattheWhiteMcMbtalns are In the Vo Semite Val-ley; thicks a loud color from a fifth-rate artist fmn Milwaukee Isdivine, and tares up its nose at astudy by Hart,

. which is a flash almostof inspiration; thicksDesdc paints too flat,and goes into raptures overthe atmosphere*of a Beaky background. And asf.,*bioa ia always loud and dcfiantlnlt*criticism,it is cheerful to a looker-on in Venice, what Ara*nir.to and Cele?re may thick unrereeath theirchii-cote abvut pictures. It moreover seems lobeabsolut-ly essential to an artists' receptionthat the light should bees totally depraved andctt.rly bsu us possible. TbU was the case lastevening. The efiectof some of the best pictureswas utterly sjotied. atd others suffered laamiably in the ba.i light,but the assemblagehardlv tuls*cd It. There was a delightful atmosph-re of talkand a delight!ul absence ofart.Tb<- artist* tlu-nuclves w.rc in their studio*,which were thrown open, and into which littleripples codied from the mrn tide and mistooktbc poet fellows’ sketches for pilnllnva. etc.,etc., and all the while Vaas and hie musiciansblew Ernant and Lucia to shivers, against thestairs. In tbe xco-l delightfulmanner.

Such Is life. Rutart is long.In presenting a list of the pictures we donot

pretend at present to ent-.r into any criticism ofthem,and can only oficr a catalogue, reserving adetailed notice of the principal works for theluturc.

THE REUNION.

Departure o< Oar Gucait.

The grand reunion has disunited, and a majoil*tyof the heroes that represented the Armlrs ofthe Tennessee, the Cumberland, the Ohio, andGeorgia, have returned to their peaceful homes.Good fortune gowith them.Now that thepaganis over, tho drumand fife are still, the banquethall is deserted, and our bero-gnests arcgone. It seems as if all the glory ofthe occasion had departed with ib*m.Perhapsit should be so, for they constituted thelight that shone resplendent on Chicago foradayor two, audio the eye yet daxxied and uc*seed to the darknees it teems more opaque thanthereality. A few aura of the grand constella-tionyet remain, hut their light is hid under abushel since they hare doffed th>’tr salt stftre,and now, as retired, plainly-dressed citizens, amajority remain only to transact private basi-nets. Takes all lor all, tbls reunion was suchthat, lu all probability, Chicago willStvcr see Its like axrtio. Tho age Israre add the coutliy is foil rarer, that producesthree each menas Grant, Sherman and fbomasIn one decade, and these chief* arc doomed todie. But while i'btcago bao the benefitof Oielraugust presence.and taepresence of nondroas ofother menof heroic quarries, she made tnc mostof them. For two aays theGarden City wascompletely under military rule, and Instead ottie dominion being “atrocltas.” “execrable,”“despotic.” and all tbat sort of thing, It seemeda glory tobe enjoyedfertver.

Special Despatch to The Chicago Tribute.Dcnxm Hill. IU.,Dee. 17.

Last evening was occupied orto the subject oftilr-dralnlng. Essays were read by Pierson, ofOnarpa, and Holcomb, of oobden. ProfessorsTuner, Perlaxa, Ualnsha, Ferine, Dr. Spaldingand oihcn took part. They all concurred In thenecessity ol lilo-dramingoo a large part of onrprairie soils. Several cram tile factories arc tobo started in the spring In various parts of theSlate.

At this morning's cession the Committee onPrntU on Exhibition reported; also the Comnut-tee on Fruit Package*.

Mr.Baldwin read an essay on orcharding. Hetbltks we hate too much exposure. too bleakwtnda, too mnch bnmns in tbeaotj, and too muchretention of moisture. He thinks toechestnut will 00l sacceed well onoar prairie soil. Trees standing Insward lord make poor returns, and fall an easynrey to toe hark lonso and other Insects. On theowß prairie wc generally find the trees wun act ou on otc side, show legtne wan’of shelter, tbesloe next to theprerailln/ wind being destituteof fruit. Shelter belts ofdeclaonna treesare veryvaluable, but thoseol evergreens are very mucamore so. Every orchard should be sheltered ;

every boose should sestle in a clamp of trees,sod every farmshoo’d havea grove

Mr. Galusha said this question is one of ab-sorbinginterestto thenorth and central parts oftheMate. The difficulty with evergreens is Intbeexposure of thero*u to the( atr. To succeedthe roots mustbe kept moist, for whan oncepsrtialiy dried the tree dies. Mulching is alsovaluable.

Mr. Colman said lhat the Austrian pine. Nor*way spruce and arbor vital were tbe best. Thecause of loss is Inallowingtbe routs to dry, andwantofproper preparation of tbe soil.

Mr Pierson was pleased with American wbltaspruce for orchard*. Would plant early in (hebill or late inthe spring.

Mr. Jordanopposed the plantingof evergreenstn theorchard, ilo would protect with more fnitttrees.

Dr. Warder dissented. He knew that ever-greens did modify the climate for the orchard;tbit they Insured a more constant crop of irult.

Mr. towards has had twenty-three \ear»’ ex*pirltnce with evergreens. Would n«uhandle Inthe tall. Obtains plants from the forest* laopenvxto»nrc.
