The Standard this morning in a leading editorial ar- ticle on the Winslow correspondence says:—‘The papers in the case presented to Parliament do not seri- ously alter our previous opinion tbat tary Fish Sstochnically right regarding the terms éf the treaty and, probably, though on this point wo feel much less con- Bdence, as to the meaning of the act of 1870; but we are inclined to think that while the Secretary 1s tech- ically right he 1s substantially wrong.” The articte concludes as follows:—“‘The Government certainly has no desire to shelter Winslow or any other American criminals, but it cannot depart from the po- Bition it has reluctantly taken, and we mist hope, therefore, that the United States government will soon find itself in a position to assent to an interpretation of the present treaty or the conclusion of a now one which will answer the objects the two governments have equally in view.” SECRETARY FISH'S OFFICIAL REPORT IN THE ‘WINSLOW INTERNATIONAL DIFFICULTY—THE PAPERS PRESENTED TO CONGRESS—POINTS OF THE PRESENT DIFFICULTY.

Boston, June 13, 1876, The Emperor, accompanied by the Visconde de Bom Retiro, went this morning, by appointment with the Fire Commissioners, to the house of steam fire engine No. 4, on Bulfinch street, where he was met by Messra, Chamberlin and Sawyer, of the com- mission, and Chief Engineer Green, of the Fire De- partment. On his arrival the system of notifl- cation of a fire was explained, after which the gong was struck. The horses came out of their stalls, were hitched to the engine, the full complement of men took their places on the machine, and she started out through How- ard street as if toa fire. The time was good and very creditable to the men, ‘On the return of the macifine to the engine house and the unharnessing of the horses the Emperor and attendants took carriages and were driven to the house of Engine No. 25 and Hook and Ladder No. 8, in Washington square. Here a thorough exam- ination of the house and the accommodations for the men and the apparatus was made by Dom Pedro, who appeared to be greatly interested in the ar- rangements, This being finishad the ladder track and the Scott- Uda aerial ladder were thrown out in the gquare, the Bangor ladder was thrown up to the height of sixty-five feet, engine 25 carried a line of hose over it and played from the bell deck of the engine house over Washington square. While this was going on the Scott-Uda ladder was thrown up some distance from the house and six men mounted it to show its strength, This closed the exhibition in the square, when carriages were again taken to Central Wharf, where the party went on board the fire boat, and, after steaming about the inner harbor, past the navy yard and the east Boston wharves, the boat was made fast at East Boston point where she playod a two- and-a-halt inch stream and then three single one- inch streams, together, merely to show what the doat could do, and how eiicient an aid she was to the city Fire Department in cases of fires on the the wharves, His Majesty was very much pleased with the eM- elency of the Fire Department, and especially so with the fire boat, * After breakfast His Majesty, accompanied by the Visconde and Professor Agassiz, took a drawing room car attached to the Saxonville train on the Boston and Albany Railroad, at a quarter past ten this morning, for Wellesley. When the train arrived at the latter place he was escorted to a carriage by H. F. Durant and driven to the Durant Female Academy. From there he went to the elegant reai- dence of H. Hollis. Hunnewell, where dinner was served. After dinner the royal Brazilian was driven through the magnificent garden of Mr. Hunnewell and about the village. Eight of the lady students rowed the imperial visi- tors some distance on the lake, so that His Majesty could sec that the physical education of the ladies ‘was not neglected. The hymn by the Brazilian composer Gomez has arrived in New York, and instructions were sent to Sefor Borges to submit it for rehearsal to both Thomas and Gilmore, as His Majesty wishes it to be presented in the best possible way. Whittier, the poet, ts expected here to-morrow to meet the Emperor, who leaves in the evening for Albany. His Majesty, accompanied by the Empress, wit- nessed the performance of the new patriotic drama “The Minute Man,” at the Boston Muscum last night. GOLD FROM DEADWOOD CREEK, Cuxrasxx, Wy.

THE LAST PARADE. —_——— CONCLUSION OF THE CADET EXAMINATION AT WEST POINT—BRILLIANT BALL LAST EVEN- ING—NAMES OF THE GRADUATING CLASS, West Poixt, N, Y., June 13, 1876, The annual examinations of tho first class of the Military Academy at West Point aro now over, and the andidates for commissions ia Uncle Sam’s army are apprised of the successful issuo of their long term of study, only awaiting the figures of the pro- fessors to determine their relative places on the list, The class numbers fifty, and forty-cight bave surely graduated; while it 1s hoped that ‘Be two others will also pull through, but Of that nothing conclusive can be known until the Publication to-morrow evening of the official list. The Professors are very reticent as to the result, and nothing can be learned from the officers of the post, who, if they know arything about the maiter, preserve the strictest secrecy. JOYOUS DEMONSTRATIONS of reliof from tho trying ordeal were made by the members of the graduating class this atternoon, Your Correspondent was exploring the precincts of tho en- gineering academy about one o'clock and admiring the contents and their arrangement in tho several rooms devoted to chemistry, mineralogy and geology, civil ana military engineermg, and the art of drawing and coloring, when a ringing cheer broke the accustomed stillness of the acadomy grounds, and the old custodian and guide of the establishment remarked, ‘It’s all over, and they aro mighty glad of it,” The class was then marched to the medical headquarters, where they wero finally examined as to their physical condition by the surgeon of the post. Judging from the general appearancd of the men (for we must now regard them as such), the doctor's labors wero short and satisfactory, It would be difficult, endoed, to find a body of fifty young men, moving in any spheroo life or destined for any profession, that could present a finer physique than the class of '76, Nearly ull are tall, woll proportioned, straight-limbed young follows, with bronzed or ruddy complexions, and posseasing that = peculiar ~—koenness.— of feature which rosults from their closo and in- tellectual studies, If any fault could be round with their appearance, it would be from the fact that nearly all are stout, and perhaps a little too fleshy tor hard, active service, This condition speaks well for the commissariat department and also indicates that’ mental stndies have been preferred to Physical exorcises, But a course of active employment on the frontier will soon reduce them to that vondition of soldierly slimness and graceful dolt- cacy of appearanco which forms tho chief attraction, appurently, of the military man with the ladies, Noxt tothe receipt of his diploma frdm tho hands of his military cbief the cadet mygt regard WIS FINAL PAKADR with tho battalion of which he formed a momber during the last four years agono of the most interesting events of his Hilfe ot the Military Academy. Durnng that period many life-long {rienaships begin, and many of only four years’ duration end with separation from his comrades. Although in such a largo bady of young fellows, hot-blooded and comparatively inexperienced in life, there may bo some jars and misunderstandings, the discipline and spirit of good fellowship that exist between the cadets, at West Point reduce these to a minimum, and the only rivalry that is acknowledged \s that friendly one which actuates all competitors for the prizo of supremacy, THE LAST PARADE. The last parade ofthe graduating class was held to- night, with the usual ceremonies, except that the sue- ceasiul men who were not cadot officers, paraded with- ont arms. Whon the order was given, ‘“Ollicers to the front and cenire” the graduates formed in hno in front of the reviewing officer, Lieutenant Colonet Neill commandant of cadets, and advanced under tho com- mand of the Adjutant and saluted by removing the shako and resting it tor a moment on the shoulder A similar salute was returned by Colonel Neill, when the new mado officers retired a short distanco, and, forming line, saluted each cowpany as it passed with three ringing cheers, Of course the band played all the familar airs sug- gested by the occasion, such as “Home, Sweet Home,” “Auld Lang Syne,” “The Girl l Left Behind Me” and “The Wearing of the Green.” The promenade, trontin; on the parade ground, was thronged with the friends of the successful men, and the whole scone was most animated and imposing. I send you the names of tho successful geaduates, who number forty-cight, out of aciass of tity. ‘Two cadets of tho first class are still in dount of thoir suc- cess, but hopes aro entertained by their companions that they wilt pall through, ‘The following are the suc- cessful men:—Ludiow, J.
