TRoUBLEs OF A ooLoRnDoAD
The Young Aristooraey OF West Point
Om the Rampage.


New YORK, July I3.-The negro cadet
at West Point, unable to withstand the
insults of his white companions, has
sent in his resignation.
A few days ago, General Upton, the
new COmmandant, addressed the cadets
on dress parade, and told them these
personal insults against their brother
cadet, whose only crime was color,
must cease. This was done after young
Smith, in utter despair, had signifed his
intention of resigning. General Upton
sent for him and said, Young man,
shall not accept your resignation. You
are here an officer inthe National Army.
You have stood severe examination
you have passed honorably. and now
you shall not be prosecuted into resign
ing. am your friend. Como 70 me
and you shall have justice.
| The interview changed young omltn
intentions, and the first smile Tor weeks
gIaddened his countenancc.
Yesterday Cadet Lieutenant Pardec
acting officer Of Police, happened tc
come next to young Smith in the large
mess room. Young Pardee, with all the
chivalry of a Carohnian, refused to SIT
beside the id nigger. This was open
revolt The hall was in an uproar.
The Commandant, true to his promise
/ had the fastidious Pardee put under ar
rest, where he now remains with Cadel
Grimshaw, who refused TO drill the I'm.
fortunate colOred boy.

IN MEMORIAM.

sAHUELLA, third daughter Of the late Samuel
Il. Bugg after much suffering, died in peace on
! the 4th Of January, and was buried in grave be-
dewed with the tears of grief-stricken family and
a, multitude of friends. Above it should swing
and sigh the weeping willow for it covers the
| lovely and lost
ELLA-so she was called by those who knew her
best and priced and loved her most-was a child of
affection. Gifted with mind of unusual endow-
ments and blessed with every grace that could adorn
her sex, "the maid on the verge Of womanhood" be
came an invalid Month by month, and year by year,
an insidious disease-now seeming to yield to re-
medal treatment and to the remarkable courage Of
the sufferer, and again prostrating her and the
hopes of the fond watchers of her welfare-clOuded
the alluring prospect of her life. But, as time
passed her fortituds appeared to strengthen, and,
for long seasOn-numbered by years-the seren-
tty with which she bore suffering, the moral hero
ism which she maintained on her own part for the
support and comfort of others, the singular clear
ness Of mind which she exhibited under all cir
cumstances, and the unselfsh attachment to her
widowed mother and family, made her to realize
all we believe Of the ministering angel. Well, and
mingling in her quiet way with the company Of
friends and acquaintance who loved her-or sick,
and the object of their care and kindness, ELLA
was the same-like the blessed SAVIOUR, upon whom
she relied here and so trustingy looked to here
after-''the same yesterday, to-day, and forever"
Yes, forever, for to such as she the Of Eter
nal Life is vouchsafed.
When this gentle spirit answered the summons
OF the passing-bell, earth in its rudest aspect,
and uncertain skies and chilling blasts drear,
and rendered drearier and desolate the hearts
of the bereaved and devoted who laid her form
away. But soon again, around that couch the YER
dure Of spring will spread and flowers will bloom,
as her spirit released from ''the muddy vsstments
of decay" revels in the enjoyment of the realm on
the banks Of the River Of Life:
clay her in the earth
And from her fair and unpoluted flesh,
May violets spring"

HORSE TALK.

From the New York Times.
The comparative merits of the thorough
bred sires during the past year is an in
teresting butdelicate subject of discussion
among racing men. Lexington, Leaning
ton, Eclipse, Australian, Daniel Boone,
Uncle Vic, Planet and Vandal stand con-
fessedly at the head of the list of racing
stations. Lexington rejoices most in the
performance of his two-year old son,
Hamburg, who is credited with the fastest
mile on record at that age. bennington
can boast of such flyers as Lynchburg,
Enquirer, (whO at Memphis beat Ham
burg at even weights Miss Alice, Annie
Mace, etc.-a bright galaxy of fleet ones
for any horse in his first season.
Eclipse is well sustained by such racers
as Narragansett and Fanny Ludlow, who
has shown greater speed than any other
horse on. the turf for over a mile Cot
trill does high credit to Daniel Boone as a
thoroughbred stallion, for the speed he
showed at Jereme Park fairly electrified
the lOOkers-on, and was perhaps never ex-
celled, if equaled, on the American turf
Helmbold and Maggie B. B. do honor to
Australians merits as a sire; and Herzog
and Versailles will not allow Vandal's
claims TO distinction to be soon forgotten
This season Kentucky's progeny will make
their de6ut, and it remains to be seen if
the bright renOwn he acquired on the
turf vii be maintained and perpetuated at
the stud.

THIS anecdote of Macready is related by
Mary Russell Milford in one of herprivate
letters:
"Mr. Macready once told me that he
sat up all night in a room opposite the Old
Bailey q think to witness the execution
of ThistlewOOd, ETC., by way, suppose,
of taking hints from their deaths. He
said that there he was disappointed; that
even the masked headsman and the hold
ing of the head of traitor was, in theat-
rical phrase, ineffective; but that the most
tremendous thing he ever saw was the
congregation of human faces, especially
of human eyes, in that dense and extensive
crowd, all pointed to the same object
with an intensity so fixed and so absorb
ing. He never before, he said, knew the
power of that mighty thing, the gaze of a
multitude. "

OLD ParsOn Nudge, Of Essex county,
got to be rather unpopular with his flock
towards the latter part of his labors.
They could not dismiss him, as he was
settled for life, and he was not to beeither
coaxed, bought or scared off, so he con-
tinued his preaching-but every Sunday
his audience grew less and less, until it
had dwindled down to a bakers dozen.
Howbeit, the old parsOn kept along in the
even tenor of his way, declaring that he
would not give up as long as he could say
"we.n Finally, his flock was reduced to
one solitary old deacon, to whom he
preached for nearly a year, when the old
saint died = then, as the indomitable
preacher man could not say "we," he
gave up the pulpit.

Robbery.

Two negroes named Charley Woods and
Felix Overton were arrested yesterday
on the charge of robbery. An old colored
man from Maury county came to the city
with two bales of cotton, which he sold and
realized something over $50. The parties
above named had been watching the move
ments of the old man, and proposed to
him to take stock" in what is called the
lock game. The old man was then fleeced
out of his money. Upon the evidence in
the case, the grand jury found a true bill
against Woods and Overton, and they were
committed to iail for trial

A SENTRY blew out his brains, a few
days ago, almost in sight of Napoleon and
his Cabinet Council. Conversation en-
sued among the sentries Onduty about the
Tuileries, and it was found that one of
the Cent Gardes was called upon to guard
the passage communication with the
kitchen and the dining-room. As all the
savory dishes had to pass under his nose,
but being forbidden fruit, he was fami-
liarly known as the "Tantalus Sentry. "
