The CAPE MAY AFFRAY.-Mr. Editor: A
very exaggerated account of a trifiing affair,
which occurred at Cape May a few days ago.
has appeared in the Star and several other
daily papers.
The facts are briefly these: Three or four
gentlemen were in q room in the Mount Yer
non Hotel on last Sunday afternoon. By &C.
cident tumbler was broken; one of the gen.
tlemen picked it up and threw it out of the

the tumbler fell, supposed it to have been
thrown at him, and Immediately commenced
TRADE of abuse of all the persons in the room
from which the tumbler had been thrown
The young gentleman from Washington"
went down stairs, and meeting the negro, ex-
postulated with him, and assured him that
the tumbler was not thrown at him. But he
was not to be pacifed; but, becoming more
boisterOus, made threats of cutting out the
white livered heart of his supposed antagonist,
and when about to suit the action to the word,
the young gentleman drew his pistol and pre-.
sented it 1t snapped and was thrown aside
The knife was then drawn, and with it q
slight flesh wound wasinficted, and thus ended
this " outrage"
As an evidence of the truth of this states
ment We can state that on the morning after
the occurrence "the wounded man. was wait.

to the request that he should make his affidavit
of the facts, he stated that he would not do go

MONUMENT TO a. y. UoWNiN6.-Ihe monu-
ment which the friends of the lamented Down
ing have had in preparation, and which has
been in progress Of erection at the establish
mentofR. E Lsunitz, New York, for some time
past, was yesterday PLACED in the position as
signed to II, on the rising ground in the north
east corner of the Smithsonian grounds. The
monument, which is of veined m rble, stands
upon a granite base, and is surmounted by an
elsborately wrought vase of white marble. The
Northern front Of the monument bears the
following inscription
THIS VASE
Was Erected by his Friends,
IN MEMORY OF
ANDREW JACKSON DOWNING,
Who died July ~, 1852, aged 81 years.
He was born rad lived, and died upon the
Hudson river His life was devoted to the
improvement Of the national taste in rural
art an Office for which his genius and the
natural beauty amidst which he lived had fully
endowed him. His success was as great az
his genius, and for the death of few public
men was public grief ever more sincere
When these grounds were proposed he was
at once called to design them but before they
were completed he persisted in the wreck Of
the steamer Henry Clay.
His mind was singulsrly just, penetrating,
and original.
His manners were calm, reserved, and cour-
teOus
His personal memory belongs to the friends
who loved him his fame to the country which
honors and laments him.
Upon the Southern front
"The taste of an individual, as we'll as that
of nation, will be in direct proportion to the
proforn sensibility with which he perceives
the beautiful in natural scenery.
"Open wide, therefore, the doors of your
libraries and picture galleries, all ye true re-
p,fl lalIa IL
shall be freely diffused among men, and not
shut up within the narrow walls of narrower
institutions. Plant spacious parks in your
cities, and unclOse their gates as wide as the
gates of morning to the whole people"
[Downtng's "Rural Essays.
Upon the Eastern front is inscribed
"'Weep no more,'
For Lycidus your sorrow Is not dead,
Sunk though he be beneath the wat'ry floor,
So sinks the day-star In the ocean bed
And yet anon, repairs his dropping head,
And tricks his beams, and with new spangled
ore
Flames in the forehead Of the morning sky;
Through the dear might Of Him that walked the
waves +"
And upon the Western front
elm the hill from end to end,
VI all the landsca pc underneath
find no place that does not breathe
Some gracious memory Of nv friend
IT'S held that sorrow makes us wise,
Yet how much wisdom sleeps with thee,
Which not aone hal guided me,
But served the seasons that NAV rise.
And doubtless unto thee Is given.
A life that bears immortal fruit,
In such great Offices as suit
The full grown energies Of Heaven.
And love will last as pure and whole
AS when he lovea me here in time
And at the spiritual prime
Reawaken vita the dawnicg SOUL
