SHAM BATTLE AT WEST POINT

SHAM BATTLE AT WEST POINT.
The correspondent of the \. Y. Post thus
refers to Gen. Scott and to a sham fight
among the cadets at West Point, during the
recent review exercises:
Gen. Scott was present and reviewed the
cadets, superby dressed 10 the uniform Of
lieutenant general, and looked, what he in
disputably is, the most illusrrlous living mill
tary leader of the age. At half, asst 5
o'clock, we were attracted to the grounds
again by a delicious air from TroSatore, play
ed by the band. While all ears and hearts
were engrOsSed with the music, bang went
n mortar, speeding a she'll through tho air
at the rate of mile a second, more or
less, and describing a fiery parabola along
the horizon, as 1t few, until it fell upon the
works OF Fort Clinton, which was the imagl-
nary citadel Of band of British outragers.
FIVE mortars were in battery manned by
cadets, and every few minutes the utter dark
ness was penetrated by yolleys OF these fiery
missiles. Presently fire ball was dlscharg-
ed 80 as to tall a little short of the fort and
by its light reveal the situation and condition
Of the enemy and his works. These balls,
though not larger than good-szed base ball,
burned for twenty minutes, or more, 50
brightly as to made all the line of attack dis
tinctly visible and illuminate the whole
plain. The discoveries which the light ena-
bled the beseigers to make seemed to awaken
them to new activity. NolIeys OF srenades
were fired to clear the walls where the imag-
mary redcOats were trying to repair imaglna-
ry breaches in their works; the shells, five at
a time falling like Satan's devils, with hid
eous ruin and combustion" down among the
outragers. At ten the drums beat TO quar-
ters. and in ten minutes not cadet or sol
dier was to be seen, except the sentinels at
their posts while the roads were gradually
cleared OF the retreating visitors.

regular prescribed religion, but they worship
the sun as long as be is with them, and du-
ring his absence the moon and pole star
To these they offer yearly sacrifices of deer,
which they burn, except the head and feet;
they sacr flee also for their dead. The Sam
oades, who live little to the south OF Nova
Zembla, are great idolatOrs and believers Of
witchcreft Each family hasits own temple,

man in the family, and his ornaments are
small ribs and teeth of fish and wild beasts,
which hang about him. On bis head he
wears a white garland. During his oihcla-
ting be howls, gradually increasing IN loud
ness, and ferceness Of manner, till at last he
appears like madman. lie then falls down
