IT,, I.yxtSeTos CADETs.-The Rich
,oond Enquirer Of the 18th instant says:
This fine corps labout 46 Cadets pre-
j sso,l commenced their examination on
Tnesday last in the First Baptist Church.
Th.,e we're some members OF the Legs
Ia,n,e and several citizens present
though the inclemept day prevented a gen
eraJ attendance. They were strictly ex-
/ smined on the highest branches of Math-
ematics-and we but express the opinions
Of gentlemen, who are acquainted with
the subject, that they exhibited an admi-
rsble proficiency in that abstruse SCIENCE.
Their diagrams and aIgebgalc calculations
on the black board, were performed with
the greatest facility-and the proolens
p~ropounded 10 them, rapidly q clearly
resolved. The scene gave great sats'ac-
Ition. Yesterday, the examination was
continued in the lower departments Of the
Mathematics by the junior classes, with
equal success.
Yesterday, on DR.. Leyburn's motion,
leave was granted for the use oil the Hal
OF the House of Delegates, TO continue the
examination of the Cadets, during such
hours as the House are not in session.
The CADETs.-The Cadets from the
Military Institute arrived in the city on
Friday evening, and took lodgings at the
Armory, where Capt. Richardson, with
the hospitality of an old Virginian, had
prepared ample accommodations. on his
own hook. They made their appearance
upon the Square on Saturday, accomPuni-
ed by the Guards. The House took a re-
cess of an hour to enjoy the pleasure OF
seeing them go through their manGuvres.
The thorough discipline they displayed.
and their general appearance were sub

Another fatal accident occurred yes
terday on the Rail Road between Borden
town and Trenton, about a quarter Of a
mile from The former place. A young
man. named Peter X. Woglom, who for
merry resided at or near Pennington, but
who has recently been living with bis mo-
Their in Philadelphia, got on the cars at
Bordentown to come to Trenton, and
while standing on the platform outside Of
the cars, suddenly fell off, and was run
over and literally crushed to death before
it was known he had fallen. As soon as
it was known, the cars were stopped and
backed--but life was extinct. The body
was taken to Trenton ; a jury of inquest
was held over il, a coffin made, and the
body returned to Philadelphia by the even
ing train Of cars--a sad spectacle for an
afflicted mother to behold, who had SO re.
Gently parted in life and health with per-
haps her chief support. BY numerous
bills found on his person, he appeared to
be out on a collecting tour for differen,
persons in Philadelphia.
This is another fatal accident from
standing on the outside Of the cars. a prac-
tice positively forbidden by the regulations
of the Company !; but the rule is every
day entirely too much disregarded.-

THE FIRE AT Baron RoUGE.--The
occurrence Of a destructive fire at Baton
Rouge, {La.) Of which we had a rumor n
day or two ago, is confirmed by the mail
Of yesterday. 1t broke out about two
o'clock on the morning Of the % ultimo,
in the dwelling house Of Mr.. Batin. The
11mes quickly truvcrsed the opposite side
OF the street, and in three quarters Of IN
hour the entire square was reduced to
ashes, with the exception of The houses oil
Mr.. Lopez and DR.. Harvey. The ad
~jacent square, in which was situated the
printing Office Of the Baton Rouge Ca
zette, next suffered; the only house which
escaped was the fine mansion o. Mr.. Mus
sulman. Thirty houses, kitchens, out.
buildings, &c. fell a prey to the flames.
The loss Of property is estimated as high
as one hundred thousand dollars besides
much suffering and distress which the "a
lami,y has occasioned to the poor, many
of whose families have been reduced to a
state Of painful destitution.
