POINT, May 20, 1570, Miatorival as West Point is, and famous ag are its Scenery and survoantings, 1% cam yet be viewed under many different lights and always present fresa nd indelible phases of natural beauty. Lytag upon aterritory where there are so many tra iltions, so Many recollections of great meu and 89 mach in the Present to interest and charm, few watering places in the United States execi it in multipied advan: tages, aud none in the toaporal graudeur of its swift river and towering hitis, Coming np the Hud- son, the foliage 18 Just Ieating out, and the gray cas- tellated structures of the Miltary Academy are Mote visible than they will be when the network of overgrowth 1s completely interwoven. Ariving at Garrison’s, there, is little to retleve the torpidity of the humdrum Life at this Hudson river comma—for it is but @ short temporary stop gefore reach ng the pertod at Cozzeus’ Hotel, on the moun- tain, to the oppostie site below. But be‘ore Paying a visti to this immense hotel eata- lishment the traveller ascends the steep by an easy-going omninus, and ts driven to the ane hotel formerly known as Roe's, but now called “The West Point Hotel.” Tt ts at this point and just at this season of the year that the scenery ts be- decked with a marvellous freshness and vitalily, To the southward, taking the vista from the porch, stretches away the plain or parade ground, terml- nating in the cadets’ barracks of flinty, hard-grained granite; to the eusiwaid is the Hudson, lying down in tts quiet bed below, siveping as 1¢ has slep: from time the mind of man runneth not to the con trary; to the westward are the oMcers’ qiartes, the promenare, the fine shade trees, and tne nill- aide makes up the western wall. This entire a is Autersected with waiks and drives, ana THE GREEN SwaRD 4s as soft and downy as an ermine skin, and the lustre equal to the dazzting shimmer ot the phos- phorescent sea in moonlight. Vegeation is present even in the atmosphere, so laden witn the exhalations of plants, flowers and trees is the evening air, Whether or not this is a desiravie quality some witli be disposed to dispute; for th recepuio: fico ihe lungs of carponic acid is certainly deleverious. But withal this aroma o! Youth and spring is picasant and contributes not a Aiitle in the preparation of the seuses to enjoy the grander natural Lean ies of the place. For tstance, Wht finer spotcan the nue worshipper of the beau- tiful desire than thas in the immediite vicinity of the West Point Hotel, looking to the northward up the Hadson? ‘There ts a thick growth of wnderorusi: 4 the foreground—handsome firs, spruces, pines and cedars, ant the whoe bank to the water’s caze ts grown over with a vast variety of foliag:. As the river pushes itself northward it cuts the monitains mm twin, and sili continues losing its diection .n @ Winding, tortuous course, In the eve: jug the at Mosphene phenomena are frequently beautiful aud Lomtuy, or mirage has beer frequently ex- empliied, Flashes of heat lghtuing olin touch the mountain crests With @ momentary flame, and the sharp blaze expir s in dirkuess. An observer mighé go mto a regaicr Fourth of July oration ap ut West Point and its Incomparable views, but tnls nas been doue 80 Much that Lforbear. Yetit ts not amextrave agant expressiva to say that the feelings iusptred by the scenes about THE MILITARY ACADEMY are of more than an ephemeval nuture. The know- edge that whitie you look down the deep yalley of the Hudson and’ then suivey the densely fo iaged mounteins Lo eliher hand there 13 on the dead level plain behind you an institution whence haye grad- Uated the flower of mudern generais, the cream of great engmecrs and \he first of mathematielans and Blatiscians is 4s usation that fills ihe heart with pride. There is West Put, It has edueat:a the men wio have developed Amer.ca and made it what itis; Who have bult its brides, railrosds, e\nais, And who in critical emergencies have defende! them from the desirvyer, and who now baye a fine repre- sentative in the Chief Magisterial chair of the inion. ‘This is the work of West Point, and whatever may be said it 18 one oO. the most powerful soc.al, politi- cal and inilitary forees that Nave ever grown to a ripened matur.ty ta America, This is the picture as tt is, and tie gorgeous scenery about this institution 13 only the frame of the picture— only lends 16 extevnal charins—and people visiting West Point do not come to see the frome, oniy the picture; bus they are glid to enjoy both when thcy blend in harmony, a3 they do inthis case. Hence any consderat.on of West Point discounocted with the Military Acadeay amounts to nothing; for with Out this inetatution there would be no visitors. ‘The quality of guess in a large measure must be determiued py the fo: ces that draw ticm here; and ‘the mi ts are the oficers and cadets, geuerally of good tion, cultivaied and accompilsid yentie- men. THE VISITORS are, therefore, first class: and those that are not so geueraliy Decome naturalized alter @ brie! titer- course about the Point; and if not so wooed and won they will remain iorever aliens about this locality. It wil thus be seen that excluwiveness 1s the raig here, {t is probably true that the visitors at West Point ave the most intcliectual, most refined and really the most companionable of any similar body in America. Such a fact is but natural, and because of it West Point has been assailed for breed- ing aristocr.cy, sad ci npracticabd e relormers: have persisfen.iy demanded tis de-truction by the federai goverbinent. ‘The foolish and IDJOTIC FOSSILS who would thus extinguish West Point would have no liguihouses Ou a dangerous. coust, no religion in the liaunts of vice, and no gentlemen in the realms of society. The oaly trounte with these flighty and vapory agitators ts that Wc st Point is too good. If it were bad ikey would support it; ifit had a negro supermtendent they would swear by it; if at had negro cadets Uicy Would worsh:p it; Wit were a biack institution they might Iybei tt with ihe Grecian in- scription, “To the u.known God.” Then there 15 anovier social power opposed to West Pott, silly as the fact may se.m. ‘Lo ilius- traie:—Coming up in the drawing roo cars last evening I entesed into a discussion of Wet Pom! a3 & summer resort With & young gentleman, prohably twenty-five. lie was dressed fashionably, had a morocco bag by his side, and was reading Tom 0 lyle’s “Essays aud Reviews.” Like Tum, he was ve.y frank. “No,” sald he, “{ do not like West Polat in the ee , flere’s no chance jor a civilian, “a “Sunaply because the cadets and oMcers monopolize everything.

The interest slioiwn ia this examination overs the solicitude of friends for the induction of plebes; for the passing from a lower to a higher Class, aud for the success Of those in the graduating class. Tae driis, parades and exhtditions with the muskels, bowllzer, at target firing, fencing, broad swords and on the field occupy alarge portion of the time, But these exercises are alternated by ex- aminations of cadets in such delightful and be Witching studies «5 cthics and law, especially ethics, geo.ogy and Lect ay for witch ail display a Tonddess, preternatural.

The Northwest and St, Paul shares attracted less attention than usual.
