WEST PoINr.The report.i is fully confirmed
that the war department at Washington has
decided to take no notice of the resolution Of
the house OF representatives, requesting that
court martial be ordered to try the cadets
Smith and Grant, at West Point for gross
breach OF discipline. SO tar from ordering
the court martial the President has removed
Gen. schrivci, for the last fifteen years the
inspector general Of the academy, for the sole
reason that he also insisted that the trial of
these cadets should take place. The result is,
that young Grant because he is the son of the
President and Smith, because he is Niger,
can violate the discipline of the academy with
IMMUNITY, while the other cadets, for the same
ofense, are to be punished. IF such shameless
favoritism don't seal the death warrant Of
West Point, as an efficient military school, it
will be an exception to every school of the
kind that ever existed.

THE BULLETIN.
THE STATE CONVENTION.
SYNOPSIS OF THE PLATFORM
ADOPTED.

SPRINGT1ELD ILL.,, Sept. 4.--The Dom-
oc attic State Convention met today and
tassej resolutions advocating . return u
the principles Of government as set forth
IN tie oiis nsl principles Of the consutu-
tioD declaring that the system of central-
ization now being attempted 10 eubversive
ofthe foundation Of republican liberty, and
tha, the corruption and malversation Of
the public patronage now being perpetrst-
ed ~ tbe executive, threaten the greatest
danger 10 our liberties and rights as
American citizens. II was further re-.
solved that there is immediate necessity
for all loyal men 70 take energstic action
with the view Of combating the grow
ing evils that beset the nation through
the corrupt action OF its governors, who
make no scruple TO appeal TO the power Of
the military to coerce TO their own views
the constituent members Of . nation
whose highest boast has ever been that
they were free. The action Of congress in
multiplying the action OF this aw Of ha6eas
corpus, subordinating the liberty of the
citizen to the arbitrary will Of one man
WAS denounced by another resolution, also
as destructive TO the liberties Of the nation
and subversive Of the first principles on
which alone il has O claim to existence.
Another resolution pledges the democracy
Of Illinois to the hearty acceptance Of the
constitution as amended, recognizing fully
and fairly the admission of the culored
men 70 the exercise of equal politica, priv
ileges with themselves The present tariff
system is condemned As unjust, oppressive,
and in every way destructive of the best
interests Of American commerce.

The Common Method of Grating.

Grating, which Is the taking of one
shoot from a tree and inserting i, into
another, in such way that they may
unite and become one tree, is generally
performed when the buds are Just begin
ming to swell.
From the different modes OF grating,
wc select that termed cleft grating. rs
being easiest explained, aud n best suit
"a tn beginners.
Glen grating is performed ON stalks
from one and half to two inches in di-
ameier. The top OF the stalk to be graft
ed is carefully sawed or cat of at 4 part
free from knots, and the top pared smooth;
with a thin knife split down the stalk
through the centre 10 the depth of two
inches, and then insert wedge to keep II
open for the reception of the cion; the CT
on is TO be prepared in the form of a
wedge with two eyes, if possible; to the
upper part of the portion thus formed
the ciOn Is now TO be carefully inserted,
so that the inner bark OF the cion aud
that of the stalk may both exactly meet
Large stalks require two ciOns, one on
each side; the whole is now to be care
fully covered with grating wax, except
