JOYCE. REET, BETWEEN E THE EVENING STAR. DOUBLE SHEET. {Cincinnati Gazette. | The exbidit of caste at West Polat,in the case of Whittaker, has called pac a to that establishment, and has raised question whether its existence is necessary o r beneficial, or consistent with ovr political institutions. A rational inquiry wouid quickly go to the bottom of this affafr. The academy ts an ulcer of favoritism, class aristocracy and virulent caste, Ge in thé midst of democratic institutions, ieee retended necessity of an exclusively lucation in rudiments which are the alt em the edueation of military class whose first and paramount pri: ciple is to keep thernselves as a caste into which no person shall be allowed to enter through any other gate than the academy, no matter by what distinguished military services. Tn a democratic form of government it sets up an aristocracy which makes promotion from the ranks practically impossible. In a war which called out a million of men such things have occurred, but the academy caste made {t the cbief business to weed them out. No man who comes through any other way than West Point can expect to be treated by the so-called regu- lar officers asan equal, or to have any service done by him recognized. The existence of this. establishment Ina democratic government is the strangest anomaly. As to its necessity, every man of sense knows that if the govern- ment should tix a standard of educational quali- fications as high as the graduation rank at the academy, and shou'd admit as cadets eligible to commission such applicants as could pass its examinations, the other schools of the land could furnish enough. It may add to this all that the graduating cadets now know of tac- ‘ti ‘he rudiments of education for all professtons. are the same. The special military studies won'd be acquired it government would admit to the army those qualified in them. Tbis would abolish the political favoritism which fs now the foundation of the academy and of the regu- lar army class. This would abolish that bar- rier of caste which now separates the military class from the citizen. This woul Tmit of an increase of subaltern officers upon the demands ofwar. This would encourage mits ary studies in a multitude who might not apply for com- missions in time of peace. With this free and equal means of bringing cadets into the arn West Point. as a schoo! of rudimentary educ: tion, could be abolished, while tt would be re- tained as a training camp for military exer- cises. This ts the way to remove thls ulcer of caste, whose {nfluence upon our great volun- tcer army Was niost unjust and disastrous, and to make the academy far more useful. Gen. Grant's Speech at Caire. Gen. Grant arrived in Cairo, tl, yesterday afternoon and was escorted to the stand by the committee, followed by a procession of 2,00) persons, consisting of military, flre compaaies and civic socteties. Atier an address on behalf ot the city government by Mayor Tnistleggo4 and an address in behalf of the people by Judge Wm. H. Green, General Grant, being intro- duced, spoke as follows: “Gentlemen, Friends and Fellow-Citizens: After an absence of seven- teen years from Cairo (ihe point from which I might almost date the beginning of my late military career) it. affords me Lg pleasure 10 come back, and Instead of finding a camp I se a prosperous city built up and devoted to the interests of peace.

A Cincm- nati Gazette special from Fort Wayne, Ind., April 14 says: There is much excitement among the people of Cedar Creek Township, 1 this county, over events which have occurred in the family of Joseph Meyers, a well-known far- mer at that township. About a year ago, Meyers’ eldest daughter, aged 17, gave birch toa ehild, and now niso other daughter, 15, has become a mother, The ruin of both daughters ts charged by the people of the township to Wiliam Furness, a young man who has ben engaged for two years past working Meyers’ ‘arm on shares. It is bellevedin the neighbor- hood that he compassed the ruin of both giris with the advice and consent of their father. Meyers and Furness have been threatened with @ coat of tar and feathers; the latter has gone to the far w BUMED In A WELL.—Mr. Charles Lochte, who ae store at Montrose, miracuously escaped with his life in an accident on Tuesday evening iast. He 1s a stonemason by trade, and under- stands digging aud walling up wells. His pum was out of repair, and on the evening mention: he went down the well to repair it, When he reached the bottom the wall began to caye in from the lower part, and he at once climbed the sock to within twelve feet of the top, when a stone struck him on the side of his head, knock- ing him under the leaning stock. Another very large stone from the top of the well fell, wedg- ing Itself between the stock and the wall, and forming an arch over Mr. Lochte. The stone made the foundation for several perch that fo}- lowed from the wall above. Mr. L. remained in Ub!s position for several hours before the debris could be removed from above him. His volce could be heard by those who quickly gathered. ‘The doctor and priest were called to render ser- vice, and were there when the rocks were re- moved.

When ft ts understood that an admission fee ts charged on these occa- sions, and that the Gallery ts oper to the public free three days in each week, some idea can be Pete of the interest which the people of Washington are taking in the subject of art. — No record of the attendance was kept, but it is estimated that more than seven thousand persons visited the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts on the first Sunday that institution Was thrown open’ tre iree to the public.

Gifford’s two landscapes in the New York Academy this spring are by odds the finest pie- tures in the exhibition. One represents the Parthenon, tbe other the Matterhorn, and both are strongly marked by the del'cacy of concep- on and Tefinement of execution which ciuarac- terise all the work that comes from his easel. Indeed, tn these qualities, and tn his capacity t© express the poetical senutment of his Ciemes, it may be doudted whetber Mr. Gifford has ever been excelled. Next to Mr. Gifford’s, Mr. J. B. Bristol's landscapes appear to b> regarded as the best. — Mr. E. FP.

Our famous ancestor is represented as sitting upon arock, round which a vine 1s turning. and, as the muscies of the legs show, is just about ris- ing; the hands are thrown out, themselves ex- pressing astonishment, surprise and antmatton, and the head and face are strong, distinct and ‘ullar. “No one,” an enthuslastic writer who as Seen it assures us, “needs to be told that ti form is meant for Adam, or that he has ju: owe ge and is gazing for the first time on While, so far as we know, only three Ameri- can artists send pictures to the Royal Academy exhibition now open in London, no less than seventy of our countrymen will be represented on the walls of the Paris Salon. Mr. Gilbert Munger sends to the Koyal Academy three paintings, one of Which represents a Cornwall coast view, and another a scene in Utah, show- ing {ts opposite, a rich dreamy effect of color and atmosphere. Mr. Boughton also seuds three Paint'ngs, and Mr. Ernest. Parton, to whom the Academy paid the compliment of buying the first picture he exhibited t there, will likewise be represented, but as yet we have not seen the subjects chosen by these two artists indicated.

The larger Virginia laud- Seape is less satisfactory, largely froin the fact that it is yet unfinisbed,—a circumstance always sure to put an artist at a disadvantage before the public. Two tlower picces by Miss Lockwood show her to be not only a faithful Student but also a competent tnterpreter of nature in her sweetest moods. Two large land- scapes and a number of small studies and sketches by Mr. Hillyer show not only great industry on the part of that artist, but decided progress as well.
