NEW YORK HERALD, TUESDAY, JANUARY 4, 1859. THE LATEST NEWS. Our Special Washington Despatch. ‘THE KKPORTS CONCERNING THE FILIBUSTERS—AMERI+ CANS AT TAMPICO INDEMNIFIED BY GEN. GARZA— PAYMENT OF INTEREST OS GOVERNMENT LONDS— THE IRON MASTERS’ CONVENTION—THE AGRICULTU- BAL CONVENTION, KTO. Wasmrvarox, Jan. 8, 1859. ‘The contradictory despatches which came to Washing ton regarding the schooner Susan are accounted for by Ailibusters on the ground that there was more than one ‘vessel on the way to Nicaragua with filibusters, and that probably the passengers of one had landed on the coast of Honduras, while those of the other were wrecked. There does not appear to be suflicient evidence of this, and it is not believed by the government. The administration is ratified at the result of this expedition, and the conduct of the British Governor of Belize is much commended, Vice President Breckenridge will deliver an address to- morrow, on the Senators taking possession of their new chamber. Advices were received here to-day that Commander Turner, of the Saratoga, off Tampico, had caused to be fettled the forced contributions which had been levied by General Garza on American citizens. Garza refused at firet to respond to Turner's request, but finally paid all the demands. ‘The government to-day paid a million and a half of in- which had accrued on bonds, I understand it deaves the Treasury nearly empty. ‘The Iron Masters’ Convention, which meets in Phila- delphia to-day, is looked upon here as a formidable move- ment. Quite » number of tcading politicians left Wash- ington yesterday to attend it. Its object is not only to ‘urge upon Congress specific duties, but to substitute iron for buildings and ships. A leading Southern member of Congress will in a few days bring forward a proposition embodying these views, and urge its adoption. ‘An Agricultural Convention met to-day at the Depart- Mont of the Interior. Nothing was done beyond making certain preliminary arrangements. To-night there are meetings at private residences, to which members of the Convention have distributed themselves for the purpose of conversation on different branches of agriculture. The | object of calling this convention is chiefly to give informa- tion to Commissioner Holt for his agricultural report. THE GENERAL NEWSPAPER DESPATCH. Wasmvarow, Jan. 3, 1869. The meeting of agriculturists called by the Commis- sioners of Patents, assembled at the Patent Office to-day, and organized by electing Marshall P. Wilder, of Mas- sachusetts, President, and Ben. Perley Poore Secretary. More than twenty States and Territories were represented by from forty to fifty delegates, A larger representation is expected to-morrow. After a session of over three hours devoted to the organization and preliminary busi- ness, the meeting adjourned till to-morrow. ' The meeting adopted for its name “The Advisory Board of Agricultu- ) rists of the Patent OMice.? ~The Picagune’s correspondent at Mexico, under date of Deceraber 20, says:—‘‘Guadalajara bas been retaken by © the government.

Paitaverraa, Jan. 3, 1859. Senator Douglas arrived here this evening en route to Washington. He was received at the wharf by a com- mittee and the Keystone Club, the campaign body of the last Presidential election. Salutes were fired from Wind- ‘mill Island in honor of his arrival, and a large procession formed with torches and banners and escorted him through the principal streets in an open barouche to the St. Lawrence Hotel. A heavy snow storm prevailed at the time. On reaching headquarters, Mr. Douglas in com- pliance with the request of the assemblage addressed them, using about the same language as on the occasion . of the New York serenade. He did not suppose the de- } monstration was intended as a personal compliment, © but as an evidence of attachment to the principles which he struggled to uphold. . A speech from Mr, Forney being demanded, he ap- peared and sald that Mr. Douglas was not received as a Presidential candidate, but as a hero who had stood up ‘against misapplied official power and conquered. Mr. Douglas will receive his friends to-morrow in Inde- ‘pendence Hall. Douglas Meeting In Baltimore. Bairuiore, Jan. 3, 1859. \ A large and enthusiastic mecting of the friends of Sena H tor Douglas was held at the Gilmor House to-night.

POLITICAL CAUCK#N!#—XEPUBLICAN NOMINERS FOR ASSEMBLY OFFICERS. Jan. 8, 1859. There was a caucus this aft {] the Americans elected on the union ticket, A call appeared in the Journal for a republicnn caucus to night. In consequence of this call being confined exclusively to the republicans, the American union members expreseed a determiuation not to take part with them in the organization members were present at the meeting. The republican caucus was called to order at seven o'clock this evening by Mr. Hutchinson, of Orleans, who nominated Mr. Sheppard, of St. Lawrence, Chairman, Mr. Sheppard, on taking the cbair, briefly returned his thanks for the honor conferred on him, and cougratulated the republicans on their position in the State. Wr. Slocum, of Onondaga, and Mr. Spencer, of New York, were chosen Secretaries.

Mr. Schoelfield desired to know by whose authority the call read from the Chair was issued. Mr. Hutchinson said the caucus was called according to the common custom. Mr. Schoelfield replied, that then one call was as official An informal ballot was then taken for Mr. William Richardson was nominated for Clerk, on the first ballot. Mr. D. M.

SCOTCHMEN ENJOYING THE RLVE ‘TCH OF THE GAME OF CURLING—THE ICE STRO ND GOOD SKATING—LADIES TAKING LESSONS. Yesterday the ice on the Central Park pond was in bet ter condition for supporting a large number of people than on any previons occasion that we have visited the Park. From one end of the pond to the other the ice was possi- bly not less than doublo its former thickness. The par- ties charged with keeping it in order let on a large quan- tity of water at the end of last week, and by yesterday morning the new and old ice were consolidated, and formed together a splendid glassy sheet for any kind of amusement. As was to be expected, trom the amusements and play time of the holidays just passed, the number of persons on the pond was much less yesterday than before, notwithstanding there was a goodly number of persons enjoying themselves on the ioe. ‘There was no risk from rotten ice, so that those who hadnot yet learned the balancing on skates were per- mitted to enjoy themselves on the pond as well as the more skilful on the rockers. Possibly the ladies, count. ing on a lesser number of gentlemen being present than on former occasions, were more numerous and more venturesome. Towards dusk, when vision was less distinct in the distance, “the fair and frail’ could be seen gracefully reclining on the strong arms of some of the lords of creation, taking lessons in the art of not capsiz- ing. Like the cars on some of our railroads, where the cushions are @ little softer than in other cars, no gentle- men were permitted without ladies on that piece of ico— very sensible. Viewing, therefore, affairs from the dis. tance, a8 bachelors have to view ‘many human affairs, there was no accident witnessed nor anything to intimi- date the most nervous from venturing their precions lives on the Central Park pond. THE CURLING. The novelty of yesterday was the presence of number of Scotcbmen to witn the pond, There are two curling clubs | “new and the “old,” Heretofore what at their favorite and national game has been per- formed ut Fifty-ninth street and Fi'th avenue: but at that place they were subject to much annoyance from on lookers crowding upon them while engaged in the game, and the ice, also, was in too close prox mity to dwolling | houses not to suffer from the reatiess bans of boys who indulge their organ of mischievousne They had yes terday a clear track and officers 1 1h to Keep right” around th A rope was ex the pond, over which the skaters were not to pass, « they were freed from the sual hustling of the crowd, but those who ere wae no mated yesterday engaged in the games were as earnest in their season's “Sprentice hand” as if they bad piayod for the club's medal or any other incentive to ekill, moneod at mid-day and played Uli after four o'clock in the after. noon, and during that four hours enjoyed thomselves well in the “roaring game."’ The remembrance of younger days on the pretty lochs of auld Seovia warmed (he hearts of the “auldoat”? among them, as they contemplated the progpect before them of passing the wintry days in invigo rating sport instead of crawling around Uhe “ingle” to warm their Scottish “blutd."” Ifthe weather js clear and favor: Able to this sport, it is expected that there will be good playing today, The curlers are expectod on the pond by ten o'clock this morning, Curling resembles somewhat the game of bowls on the the instruments of play are granite stones. They are jonerally about a foot square, weigh from thirty to lity pounds, and are flat greensward. Instead of wood, howe and as smooth as glass at the bottom propelling them a sank or handle is placed in the top, and these, iu proportion to the taste and purse of the owner, ghly ornamented with the cho , With silver, and not untrequently gold Those blade for prizes are generally very handaomne aud valuable, ‘The space oceupiedfor curling, if plenty of 5 For the purpose of | be con jent, ie generally about fifty yards in le and at in width. At each end of this there is a ade in the ice and a piece of woot it, which is called a *tcc’’—the general term used iu Scot. Jane for a mark, whether it be in this game, bowling or quoiting. Round this * * two circles are drawn ‘on the ee, calied “broughs,”” one larger than the other, for the purpore of facilitating measurement. The 4 ayed upon of the above dimensions, or of any other in length 4 upon, is called the “rink.” A full rivk’? has cight players, with all the implements of the game com plete. A line, callea the ‘“hogscore,”’ is drawn across the rink ta distance from the “tee” equal to one-sixth of the “rink,” whatever that may be. When a stone does not reach this scratch, the opponents ery out “A hog,” and the player must "remove Iis mone’ as well us 086 his row The play itself is tolerably simple in principle, but it requires, from the weight of the stone and the distance over which it travels to the “tee,” considerable strength, and, like every other game of physical recreation, much practice is necessary to attain proficiency. There’ is no Varticular number required to play it, but it ts generally played in company, an equal number on side. The first player's object is to slide his stone as near the “tee” as possible and directly in front of it. ‘The next on the opposite side tries to beat the first by sliding his stone nearer the “tee;”” but should the first stone be directly in front, it is the second’s aim to slide his stone directly by the side of the first stone, catching it @ little to drive it to one side, and go clear the tee” for whoever follows him. When several play on both sides, each tries to strengthen his own gide and protect the best stone.on his side by playing around it other stones to protect it from bemg driven away by the opposite side. In this manner pre- cision is wanted,as every player and every stone sent out is viewed with equal interest, and the better the playing the greater the enthusiasm of the onlookers, hip and spur is used on the race course to nettle the speed of the racer, but in curling the stones must not be touched. It is, however, amusing to see the means adopted to help the ‘stone’ in the proper direction. | On ch side there is one “sweeper” at least. With a “heather” broom in band he watches anxiously the first move ofthe stone. Should its motion be regarded as less than necessary toreach the “ tee,” the sweeper is immediately work sweeping the course over which the stone is to el, and every particle of snowor the scraping of the ice is made to fly to “ clear the track.” As clean ice is agreed on, no objection is offered to the enthusiastic sweeper going down on his knees to use his strong lungs in making still cleaner work than the heather broom had accomplished, When ali have piazeds the stone nearest the “tee,” counts one, and all those of the same side not beaten by one on the opposite side counts one ‘ shot’? also, The whole game is generally limited to thirty-one shots. Iv is expected, now that the Centra! Park pond is at their disposal, that the “chaps” frae the “land 0’ cakes’’ will be diligent in showing what they can do in getting a proper organization for more extended usefulness, The curling clubs in Scotland are very respectable associa tions. The parent club—The Royal Caledonian Curling Club’’—has the consort of Queen Victoria for its Presi- dent, and ite offices are filled by the first noblemen and gentlemen of rank in the country. ‘There are no less than 142 local clubs in Scotland that are subject to the parent for counsel and advice when needed. The grand anpual curling match between the clubs on the north and south of the river Forth takes place on a large artificial pond at Carsebreak, near the fine old city of Perth. At some of these “gatherings” nearly fifteen hundred players have engaged on the match, at different places, on the same sheet of ice, and to witness their performances thousands and thousands of spectators assemble from all parts of the country. The Scotchmen here in this city are numerous, and clannish still. Whatever they do let them do it well, and they will have no lack of spectators to stimulate them in their ambition for the prize.

It is a trite saying that every house has a skeleton in it. So also every profession and occupation has its disagree” ablenesses. Officers of the army of every rank, from the general down to the unfledged cadet, have occasionally to encounter and bear with unpleasant things. Editore, printers, lawyers, doctors, tailors, schoolmasters, and even clergymen, all have their peculiar annoyances. It is, the part of philosophy to take such ills easy. Religion teaches us not to murmur, and presents the good man of Uz, the famous Job, as an examplar to be followed when beset by the vexations incident to humanity. It is, how- ever, expecting rather too much of the soldier to antici- pate that he will, on all occasions, practice the wise pre- cepts of philosophy, or obey the sublime dictates of pure religion. The Christian rule of receiving a blow on your face not merely with calm resignation, but by the pre- sentation of your other cheek to be smitten also, is hard to be conformed to under republican institutions. Such observance of the pious precepts of forbearance, and of re- turning good for evil, it must be admitted are not entirely harmonious with the “ trade of war.” If we mistake not Mars, the mythological type of the perfect soldier, was more distinguished for his love of good wine and of pretty women, and a propensity to quarrel and make a muss with his brother gods, than any other characteristics. He was ever by thé ears with some one, and always anxious for a fight. In illustration of the remark a3 to the proneness of men of the military profession to exhibit sensitiveness and testyness now and then for imagined offences, which those in civil life woul rarely deem of sufficient conse- quence to resent, it may be mentioned that within the last fortnight a Military Court of Inquiry has convened at this t to ascertain which one of the parties, m a quarrel be- tween a professor of engineering at the Military Academy here and a young lieutenant of engineers, was to blame. ‘The Court was composed of three distinguished officers of the army and was in session eight days. It heard a num- ber of witnesses on oath, some of them army officers, brought hither from places hyndreds of miles off. About haif a bushel of papers and documents were sent to the Court from the War Department, and several articles from newspapers of your city and sundry pamphlets, and at least a score of letters from different persons, and among them several from members of the Board of Visiters of 1857, and others from officers and ex-officers of the army, were read. ‘The trial was enlivened by divers incidents more or less funny After the testimony was closed, the counsel for the Lieutenant enlightened the Court by a written speech, the reading of which occupied more than four mortal hours. It touched on a great variety of topics. The art of engineer- ing((it repudiated the idea of styling it a science) :philosophy, astronomy, optics, pyrotechnics, military projectiles, can. non and small arms, ships of war and fortifications of all , and good manners, decorum and delicacy, were all ‘oursed npon. It discnssed grammar and philology; it ted of history and of patriotism, and of progress and of steam, and ‘of the militia. It quoted Scripture and Shakspere, Lord Brougham and sundry poets. Scraps of Latin and French were scattered through, like cherries in a pudding. It denounced prudence as ‘a most rascally virtue.’ It mentioned several somewhat noted indi- viduals, such as Noah, Cesar, Hannibal, Marlborough, Vauban, Cormontaigne, Montalembert, and Generals Brad- dock, Washington, Kosciusko, Napoleon, Jackson, and Scott, et id genus omne. Italluded to Galileo, Coperni- Newton, Rittenhouse, Ellicott and such like notorie- ties; and, in fine, took quite enlarged views of matters and things generally, and of the buman race ‘and the rest of mankind” in particular. The trial was concluded with a written address of about an hour and ahalf by the Professor, which referred a great deal more to himself, and to his antagonist, than to any of the iNustrions personages just enumerated. He denounced the other speech as for “ buncombo.”” It appears that the Board of Visiters of 1857 conceived the idea that the Military Academy needed reforms as to the system and plans of instruction pursued in some of the departments. Some of the members requested the Lientenant, then acting as an assistant professor or in- structor, for @ programme of a new system. Upon his compliance with such request, and his programme being read to the Board, it unanimously approved of bis views and directed that his paper or a copy should be appended to their report to the War Department, with a request that it. should be published with it. Subsequently, at the re- quest of the President of the Board, the author copied the paper, revising, correcting and amending it in style, ar- rangement and method, and the President having trans- mitted both papers to the War Department, with a sug- gestion that a comparison would show they were both the same in gepse and meaning, and with the recommendation that the amended copy should be published, the Engineer Bureau, after examination, published it, The reform programme somewhat unceremoniously pitched into the system and course of study in the Engi- heer Department, and into the text books used—mostly compilations by the learned professor at the head of that department. ‘These systems and text books were con- detmned, not in terms, but in substance, as old fogyish, and it wag stated that the study of engineering here was decidedly disagreeable to the cadets, and in fact was 80 “disp that but few officers of the line in the army upon leaving the Academy continued such study, and by consequence Were not a& well informed on the subject as they ought to be: and especially as they were not given information bere as to our own forts, they were generally ignorant as to their force, theory of defence, &c. The programme suggested the adoption of a new system as t merican”’ art of engineering and of fortification, | wie! ae contradistinguished from the old European system; and it advocated text books on frortier and Indian war- | fare, and the practical duties of an American oflicer; and that models of all our forts snoutd be made, and models of the surface of the surrounding country, by which the cadets here should be tanghtethe tl of their defence, &e.; and it is contended also tha' the elements of military engineering best a to this country, and most of the lessons in the art of war neces. sary to be taught to tho American cadct, may be best learned ‘rom the history of our own country aud its mili- tary experience; and the Lientenant indignantly discards Vauban and his cotemporaries as antiquated as European, and as behind the times. He intimates that the shriek of a steam whistle would geare old Field Marshal Saxe into fits, if he should suddenly awake to life, and that two centuries ago Professor Morse would have been burned to death for a wizard. . Of course this exceedingly indelicate and unmannerly if not impudent poaching by the youthful Yankee chou- mara upon the manor of the Professor excited his ire, and that of his friends, Some spicy newspaper effusions, overhanling the Board of Visiters and the pious subal- tern, soon after appeared, and which called forth the Presi- dent of tho Board and the graceless Lieutenant in reply. The newspaper controversy would probably have con: tinned till now if the editora had not “shut dewn’ w all the parties, Pamphlets wore then resorted to; but they were found to be somewhat expensive, and besides the contest seemed Iatterly to degenerate into a perso al squabble pot interesting to the world at large. ‘Among the meaus adopted by the Professor to animad: vert upon the alloged misdoings of the Board of Visitera aud its Presicent, and the saucy and mtérmeddling “sub!” (who bad in the meautime got the War Department to re- lieve him from his post as assistant instructor), was writ. ing letters Lo oilicers o: the army, his former pupils or fel- Jow graduates at the Academy. As may have been sns- pected, these missives contained scarcely any compliments to his antagonists, and, on the contrary, a very considera- ble quantity of matter of a different character. Oné of | these episties, directed to an officer of Fort Mouroe, in Vir- ginia, censured, in harsh terms, the President of the Board and the ex assistant instructor. It impugned the conduct of the latter in amending his paper, and accused the former of impropriety in recommending such amend mente, and for recommending to the War Department the substitution, after comparison, of the amended copy.

The Professor, having requested this letter to be shown to the officers of the garrison, one of them a friend of the “sub,” very properly sent copy to him; whereupon he wrote to the Professor demanding an imme: diate retraction of the offensive matter. Not receiving such retraction by return mail he forthwith made com- plaint to the Secretary of War againss his former school- master and chief for “conduct unbecoming an’ officer anda gentleman,” und asked for an investigation by a military court, ‘The Secretary laid the affair before Presi dent Buchanan, who promptly ordered the Court of In- quiry. don the trial that the day the complaint It ay was mailed for Washington, but after it was mailed, the Professor's answer came along; hut it was the reverse of aretraction.

The dof 857 did not, as was said on the trial by the counsel, as other boards have too often done, organize themselves and the Academic Board into a ‘ Mutual Admiration Society; and it was insisted by others that it was somewhat obtrusively inquisitorial and disposed to find cause for exception. ‘The decision of the Court of Inquiry will be a secret for some days. It is supposed by officers here that it may express its opinion adverse 10 the propriety of the Profes- sor’s letter; but inasmuch as the Lieutenant has obtained what it is presumed was hie chief object in complaining to the Department—the opportunity to place on record the proofs that he did not act improperly in regard to the amended memoir—no further action will be had. But this is mere conjecture. ‘No ordinary degree of interest is attached to this trial, from the fact, well known, that many members of Con: ress and others deem decided and extensive reforms abso- jutely necessary in the Academy, and it is supposed the dis- closures made in this case will De useful in pointing to the defective parte. It is presumed the record will be called for by Congress at an carly day. There seems to be a diversity of opinion as to whom the Academy belongs. The Engineer Bureau and Engineer corps appear to claim itexclusively. The army generally lispute this, and the line, infantry, &c., claim to have a part with the engi- neers. The Academic Board, composed of the Superin- tendent and professors, seem to regard it as their pro- perty, and certainly have generally exercised all essential rights of ownership, yielding to a nominal supervision by the Secretary of War, and (0 w. visitor power in the Board of Visiters, provided the proceedings of the Secre- tary and Visiters are agreeable to them. Tam inclined to the opinion that none of these claimants have a tittle of the right of domination they arrogate to themselves, and that the institution belongs to the the people, who may alter or abolish it as . The opinion that, controlled as it has been exclusively by army officers in commission, it is becom- ing rather too peculiar for our form of government, ap- pears to be fast gaining ground, and the whole concern will have to be popularized by changes of an effective character. Among other reformsali the professors should be appointed for a limited term, and have to undergo the ordeal of a reappointment at least once every four years, like our collectors, postmasters and other officers. Ihave omitted to mention that the court declined to allow the Lieutenant to .summon the cadets of the first class, to show that the Professor had impugned him in the section room before cadets. No cadets were given per- mission to witness the trial. It is supposed this course was induced by considerations of prudent public policy in regard to the subordination necessary to be maintained as to them. THE FAMILY HERALD.
