West Point Cassetsl,frp

The examination of candidates for the
West Point Cadetship, closed last night, the
Board having been In session two days. A
great many questions were asked the differ
ent applicants, in mathematics, history, ge-
ography and grammar, and the examination
to which they were subjected was rigid and
thorough. The decision was rendered at ia
o'clock today, which was in favor of John
Franklin Forbis, son Of Major j. r. For
bis. of this city. Young Forbis is only
seventeen years of age. but has probably had
better educational advantages than any of
the others who competed for the prize which
he has carried off. For several years past he
has been d student III the Academy of this
city, applying himself diligently to his var
ious studies, untI lie bad won an enyiable
position among his schoolmatcs. The sYs-
tenn of competitive examination in such cas-
es recently adopted by the Government is a
most cogimendable one, and effectually does
away with party favoritism. Worth alone
will now win, and Johnny Forbis, although
a young man Of Democratic procliyities, has
won his laurels through real merit, before
board composed OF stauneh Republicans.
The other candidates for cadet honors were
Samuel Douglas. Geo. NJ. Roberts aud Her
man A. Twogood, of Lewis and Clarke
County; Geo. e. Watson, OF Beayerhead
County. and John Harwood OF jefferson
County. The successful competitor takes
his place at West Point in June next.-Her-

FOREST CULTURE.

Now that the subject Of forest culture is at
tracing ~ much attention in this country, .
description Of the manner in which the French
keep up their pine forests may be of interest TO
those whoilook with apprehension on the waste
Of valuable timber which annually takes place
in his country. On the southwestern seaboard
Of France al area Of over 300 square miles is
dsyo,sd to the culture Of the pine tree. The
coil on which the pine is cultivated is formed OF
YEA sand, and during the first three years no
attention is paid to the seedlings. In the fourth
yelr the weeds and unpromisiug young trees
ars cleared out, and in the fifth year the useless
shoots are trimmed off. When fifteen years old
the small trees to be used for poles are cut down
leaving one hundred or more trees per acre for
tapping, which begins when the trees are twent-
I'VE years old. Then the weaker trees are grad
u.lly cut down, leaving only the strongest. The
French maritime pines lives two hundred years.
These forests are intersected with valleys water
courses, and roads, and rarely suffer from fire.
