MORE THAN THEY wANr.-The San Fran
cisco California; auction marts are crowded
with Chill and domestic four cargo after
cargo is offered, under the hammer to be sold
to the highest bidder. The lowest sale of
good article Of superfne has been at $3.50
per barrel. Seven vessels have been loaded
with wheat and -four for the Atlantic and
Australian ports. The Times of that city
says it is the general belief among farmers
and others who have had opportunities of OBJ
servatiOn, that the heavy crops of the past
year will be far exceeded by those of the
present and in this view of the case, and
impeled by the long existing low prices Of
farm products, business men have at length
resolved to ship, in search of market, a
large portion of the -four, grain, etc, which
California has in surplus. The amount of
saving to California by this deveopement of
its own agricultural industry is equal to $l2,-
100000 annually.

WEST POINT ACADEMY.

The annual examination at West Point
commenced last Friday and will last twenty
days. In relation to the graduating class
the New York Post says:
The class started four years ago with over
fifty members, but the rigors of military cd
ucation have diminished the number to
thirty-four.
The cause Of this reduction in number,
which is usual thing with the classes, is the
list of demerits.-The main purpose of the
Academy being perfection in discipline, the
code of conduct is not like the usually obso-
lete bylaws of ordinary colleges The least
infraction is observed and charged on the
conduct roll--even such offences rs leaving
the washbowl in the bed room, right sight up
or with water in it, or swinging the arms
when marching to the mess-room This
apartment, by the way, is large, handsome,
though plain hall, capable accommodating
four hundred persons at sitting The seats
are immovable iron stools, so hard bottomed
as not to encourage long indulgence in the
pleasures Of the table.
Most OF the time the cadets are not allow
ed to pass from ono room to the other, for
any purpose, and if the cadet on guard in
each entry, who marches back and forward
with his gun to his shoulder permits such
conduct he is himself visited with six demerit
marks; and, according to the rule, any cadet
who shall at the examination in June and
January, have en- amount of demerit exceed
ing one hundred for the previous six months,
such cadet is declared deficient in conduct
and recommended by the Academic Board
to the War Department for discharge.
This discovery Of deficiency is what the
cadets iacetiously term finding, and dis
charged cadet is generally spoken of by his
brethern as found. The use of wine, ale OF
liquor is prohibited utterly, and by an ar
rrangement with the hotel-keepers, the Maine
law rs pretty thoroughly carried out on the
lands OF the general government The code
OF discipline is embraced in volume of two
or Three hundred duodecimo pages, and the
ist o. punishable offences is so large that it is
impossible even for the most exemplary tc
escape some marks of demerit.

The ARCTIC EXPEDITION had not yet sailed
from the Staten Island anchorage on Satur.
day morning. The expedition is provisioned
with rations for two years, which. with the
extras, will last three years. cruise. The
food of officers and men is alike and consists
mainly OF concentrated meat, soups, patent
meat biscuit, selfrasing -four, lime Juice.
cabbage, preserved potatoes, pickles, whlskey.
&c. The supplies include about 10000 lbs.
of dried meats and soups, and $1,000 pounds
of preserved vegetables. For the navigation
OF the Northern Sea many curious imple-
mcnts have been provided--each vessel car
ries full complement of ice anchors, of flom
10 to 100 lbs weight--inda rubber boats,
sledges, dogs and whale boats; indeed every.
thing which ingenuity can invent for the
success of the enterprising mariners has been
furnished and effected Two years have
elapsed since DIR. Kant, whom this expedition
goes in search of, has been absent in search
of Franklin. His vessel was provisioned for
three years cruise, which it was supposed
might, by fishing and hunting, be made to
last for one or two years longer. Since July,
1883, Dr. Kane and his party have not been
heard from.

THE FRENCH EXHIBITION.

The Paris Exhibition opened on Tuesday,
and altho' inferior as spectacle, according
to the accounts, to the great London Exhl-
bition Of 1851, and deficient in the attractions
of the Sydenham Palace, it was nevertheless,
an imposing affair, to which every imaena-
BILE eclat was given by the presence of the
Emperor and Empress, the great officers OF
State, and the various ambassadors at the
Court of the Tuieries, the clergy Of every
denomination, and the life Of the French me-
tropolis. The attendance at the opening did
not exceed 10000, and there were present
several of the English celebrities who made
the Hyde Park speculation famous.
1t is perfectly evident that the war has
sadly interfered with the progress and COM
petion Of the Palais de lInduestre, for it is
even now in an unfinished state and already
one postponement has taken place. The
Emperor has been too dearly obsorbed in the
prosecution Of the war to devote his time to
the supervision of an undertaking which, un-
der more favorable circumstances, would have
engrossed oil his care. Upon Prince Napo-
lie IN the burthen of the affair has rested, and
the proceedings on the opening day were
somewhat tediously protracted by long ad
dress which he read to the Emperor, setting
| forth the course which he and the commits
sion, of which he is the head, pursued under
the circumstance in which they found them
selves placed. The Emperors reply to this
effusion was brief--purposely so--but tn,
few sentences in it are like all that the Em
peror utters or writes,-terse and to the pur
pose: Exception may perhaps, be taken t.
the final passage, not with regard to the spir
Il of the expressions, but to the peculiar tim,
at which they were uttered, 81 open will

ELECTION EXCITEMENT IN
WARRINGTON.

WASHINGTON, June 2.-The Circuit Court
was crowded to-day, in consequence Of a ques-
ton being pending that is expected to in-
nuence the municipal election to come off on
Monday. The question before the Court in
volved the right of about $50 naturalized for
eigners To vote at the election for municipal
officers. The decision of the point has been
reserved until Monday. There is great i'm
portance attached to the decision, as these
votes were expected TO turn the scales in
favor ofthe anti Know Nothing ticket. Both
parties are much excited about the matter,
and have almost come to the fighting point.
WASHINGTON, June 4.-The Circuit Court
this morning decided, in effect, that the right
of the 1870 foreigners, naturalized since the
3lst of December last, to vote is left to the
Commissioners of Elections. The question
is mixed up with the terms of the Corpora
tion charter. The Ant-Know Nothings will
offer these votes at the various polls, and
the Commissioners, who are nearly all
Know Nothngs viii. refuse them.
The election is progressing quietly.
(sEcoND DEspArcu.)
WASHINGTON, June 40 p. M.-The
municipal election to-day passed off very
quietly 1t is conceded on all hands that the
Know Nething ticket has been elected by 6
respectable majority. The vote poled was
small.
THIRD DESPATCH.
BALTIMORE, June 4, 10 p. M.-There j.
great anxiety here to learn the result Of the
Washington election. The Know Notbing'
throng the corners about the telegraph, off
oes, waiting the result. 1t is reported thai
:he Know \ othing ticket has 500 majority.

May 9Th, as follows: "Ihe emigration or
transportation of passengers and convicts
from foreign countries to the United States,
is worthy OF serious attention. | shall not
fail to cooperate with you and your author-
ties IN this matter as you suggest. 1t strikes
me an efiectual stop can be put to this unjust
system, if Congress- in its contemplated law,
will require of emigrants or passengers to
produce certificate from the nearest United
States Consul to their European residence,
of their not being paupers conyicts, but able
bodied, respectable persons, capable of
maintaining themselves. This could be ac-
complished with little trouble and expense to
the emigrant, by submission to examination
by the Consul"

A SINGULAR MARRIAGE.--At Paris sin
gular marriage was celebrated in the chapal
of the Hotel des lnvalides--that of Zouave,
who lost both feet and both hands in the
siege of Sebastopol, with young woman of
some property. The couple were engaged
to be married before the Zouave left for Sc
bastopol, and when he came back, SO glori-
ously mutilated his betrothed declared that
she would keep her word. The marriage
