WHITAKER, the colored cadet at
West Point has been found guilty by
the court of self.mutlation, and the
case referred by the Recorder to the
Secretary of War with the recon-
mendation that he appoint court
martial TO try him "for conduct un-
becoming a cadet and a gentleman
and for perjury on the witness stand"
Thus ends this remarkable case so far
as the court of inquiry is concerned,
and thus has this foolish young man
by resort to dishonorable means to OBJ
tain sympathy and advancement in
stead of relying upon his own indus
try and intellectual application, wreck
ed his own manhood, and destroyed
his chances for the honorable position
in life to which he aspired.

STIRRING Up THE ANIMALS" re-
remarks the New York World is n
game to which the Republicans in
both Houses have devoted themselves
during the present session of Congress
with great assiduity and signal lack
of success. Mr.. Hoar in the upper
house and Mr.. Conger in the lower
have been particularly conspicuous in
their efforts to irritate the Confederate
brigadiers into saying something
which could be of use in firing the
Northern heart. Mr.. Hampton yester-
day changed parts with Mr.. Hoar and
assumed the character of bear-baiter,
leaving poor Mr.. Hoar to play the
part of the baited bear. AS bear
Mr.. Hoar is calculated like Macau-
lays famous animal, to give pleasure
to the spectators at the cost of great
pain to himself 1t must have been
plain to every body except Mr. Hoar
that Mr.. Hampton's citation of Wash
ington's opinion of certain men of
Massachusetts in his time was as good
natured as it was mischievous, but
nagging is at best IL barbarous pastime,
and it was cruel to begin it at the ex-
pense of so thin.skinned legislator as
the Senator from Massachusetts. Mr..
Hoar was angry and petulant and
slightly absurd, as might have been
expected. However, Senator Hamp-
ton has given n cue which the more
mischievous of his colleagues in both
houses will not be slow to take. If
Congress is to become bear garden,
fairness requires that each party should
take its turn in playing bear

Prof. Cecil gave bis promised exposi-
iion Of the dexterous and ingenious man
ncr in which spiriiualistic mediums sue
coed in dcceiying their credulous dupes,
in Reynolds Opera House, on last Thurs
day and Friday evenings. Mr. Cecil came
here well recommended by both press and
public, and ii is but simple justice 90 say
that be more than justified the enviable
reputation which preceded him On the
fret evening he asked for the presence Of
three gentlemen in the audience on the
stage 10 see tina; he was perfectly fair and
open in his demonstrations Of the cunning
contrivances by which modern spiritualists
are deceived. Jno. y. Lane, A. Brocker-
hoif and g. X. Barrett, Jr., were selected,
and although they gave the closest atten-
tion to everything the Professor did they
were unable 10 offer any explanation of
the remarkable and wonderful tricks per-
formed under their rigid scrutiny. On
the second evening Major W. f. Reynolds,
John Curtin and w. ID. Bailey, Of the
DEMOCRAT, were called upon the stage,
and the openly expressed astonishment of
these gentlemen, as they seveIally were
made the victims of the arts Of the ac-
e"mphshcd prestidigitAtor afforded great
amusement to the audience Major Rey-
nolds was inducted into the mysteries Of
the mystic cabinet, and Messrs Curtin and
Bailey were thoroughly convinced that
there was something going on which they
did not understand. At the conclusion Of
his demonstrations the Professor explain
cd many things which seemed incapable
Of being made clear and satisfactory, and
every one was of course surprised that
they had not seen Il before. Although
the audiences on both nights were small
they embraced our best people.

THE correspondence Of the New

reference to the position of Mr.. Til
den and the Speaker Of the House.
Some time ago Mr.. Tilden was to
decline on account Of feeble health
and transfer the Presidential nomi-

that Mr.. Tilden and Mr.. Randall do
not pull together squarely, and the
latter has set up for himself, with the
understanding that he will hand over
the honor to the Hon. jeremiah 5.

have much to hand over-indeed we
doubt whether either of them are pre-.

But if the peoples representatives AT
Cincinnati in looking over the field OF

upon Judge Black, there could be nc
discount upon their intelligence. The
transcendent abilities, the honest and
fearless craftsmanship Of this favorite
