The following interesting statistics are
from the official records of the War De-
partment Of the whole number of liv-
ing graduates of West Point, both il
and out of the army, when the rebellion
commenced, sixty-seven per cent had
been appointed from slave States, and of
these seventy eight per cent. remained
loyal. Of the whole number of officers
in the army when the rebellion COM
menced, seventy-four per cent. remained
loyal: of the graduates seventy-six per
cent. remained loyal, while of those ap.
pointed from civil life to the army, sew
enty per cent. remained loyal. OF the
graduates in the army from the loyal
Border States, seventy one per cent.
remained loyal; and of the non-gradu-
ates, sixty per cent. OF the graduates
in the army from the Free States, ninety
seven per cent. remained loyal. The
record of the parents of the graduates
during the past twenty five years, shows
twenty four and one half per cent en-
gagged in agricultural pursuits. thirteen
per cent. were lawyers and judges, five
per cent. were legislators and executive
officers of the National, State and Terri
torial Governments, and nine per cent.
were army and navy officers.
