BEAUMONT Ii. BUCK.
The Cadet ut West Point from Dallas
Shoots u COmrade who Al
tempted IIazing Prac-
tees on Him

The first part of the account of the UNI
fortunate affair at West Point military
academy, in which the young man, Benu.
mont b. Buck, of this city, was engaged, for
some reason unknown to us failed to reach
this Office through the Associated Press, but
there is no doubt of the identity, as at a late
hour last night we were made aware of the
occurence.-ED.
Newburg, n. u, June 5.-The physicians
of young Thompson do not pronounced any
decided opinion, but say his symptoms so far
are favorable, while they say that
the wound is serious Sergeant,at Arms
Thompson, the father of the wounded
youth, arrived this morning. Colonel Huse,
Principal of the Preparatory school, SAYS
Buck was in INDECENT circumstances. He
was fully prepared to pass the West Point
examination. Huse says the BOYS of the
school treated Buck well, but that
Buck went there with exaggerated
Ideas of the hazing practices
at West Point, and with resolve to resent
any attempts to haze him. In this State
they took the first pistol away from Buck,
fearing he would use it. They all allege he
said he did not want to do anything desper,
ate, but could do something of that nature
as well as any one rs he wouldn't put up
with every thing, Col. Huse, who witnessed
the affair, saws Thompson did not menace
Buck at all; that Thompson is a very gentle.
manly fellow, and Huse never heard him
use an angry word.

QUARANTINE

So far as we know, none of the Southern
cities have yet established q quarantine
though all of them that are seaports require
clean bills of health and thorough fumi"N-
ton for all vessels from ATTITUDES liable to be
infected with yellow fever at this season of
the year. The necessity for and the estab-
lishment of quarantine has greatly inter-
fered with the commercial inter SIS of he
South during the last three or four years.
The fearful epidemics that seourged por-
tons of our southern country during rs and
10, while it filed countless homes with
mourning and dotted the land with graves,
created n fear and distrust and anxiety that
will wrack us in the summer season of the
year for many years to come, no m tier how
exempt We may be from similar visitations.
Ii will take decade OF immunity
TO free the hearts of the people
from dread as warm weather approaches
AMI thi, dread will lead to quarantine regula-
tons and exactions that must necessarily in
terfere with the business good of the country.
1t is not our purpose in this article to discuss
the pros and cons of quarantine. Many able
and learned physicians and scientists, gentle
men of experience as well as of reading and
observation contend that quarantine regula-
tons work no gool that wherever yellow
f.ver has ever been Is its habitat. and that
naught can keep it away or overcome it but
the strictest and most exacting of sanitary
measures. Thorough cleanliness, not only
of CUTTERS alleys, sewers and private and
public premises, but of person, they con-
tend, is the only safeguard agains, the bronze
flend that now and then stalks Through our
laad, reveling on the bosom OF the soft sweet
south wind, straying into the boudoirs, parIors
and pubic places, to linger that he may
grasp with rough hand strong men, daily with
the cheek and brow of fair wOmanhood,
and imprint his fatal kiss upon the innocent
lips of childhood aud then laugh in fendish
glee at the work of destruction and suffering
and anguish of heart that he accomplishes.
Other equally as learned and as experienced
gentlemen contend that quarantine is all and
all and that the monster of our fears can be
kept where he has birth and origin if a strict
quarantine is maintained. We DO not know
which is right, but we do know that "Clesn-
Illness is next 10 Goodness" and that every
Southern city and town should make this
proverb its golden rule. There is no quar-
antine in Texas now, and there is no neces-
sty for persons contemplating coming to the
State or leaving it to have any fears on this
score. Ingress into and egress from the
State is just as easy now as they have ever
been, and such will continue TO be thu case
until quarantine may be established, when
all the public shall know through our col
timna

The fifth affirms the belief that duties
levied for the purpose of revenue should dis
crminate so as to ia, or American labor; no
further grants Of the public domain to rail-
way corporation. Slavery having persisted
in the States. its twin barbarity, polygamy,
must die in the territories: that everywhere
protection should be accorded to citizens of
American birth and must be secured to citi.
zens by American adoption.

preserved its integrity in the hour Of battle,
invokes Congress and the treaty making pow
or to restrain and limit Chinese mmlgra-
| ton.
The seventh endorses the administration Of
Mr.. Hayes
The eighth charges that the Democratic
party, to obtain possession OF the National
and State governments and control of place
and position, have DISTRACTED all efforts to
promote purity and to conserve the freedom
of suffrage and have devised fraudulent certf-
cations and urns;labored to unscat lawfully
elected members of Congress, to secure at all
hazards vote OF n majority of the States in
the III use of Representatives; have endeav-
ored to occupy by force and fraud places Of
trust given to others by the people of the

legislation to appropriation bills
bills upon which the movements
ofthe government depends have been crushed,
and also the rights Of individuals. 1t has ad-
vocated the principles and sought the favor
of rebellion against the nation and endeavors
to obliterate the sacred memories of the war
and overcome its insperabe valuable results
of nationality, personal freedom, and indi-
vidual equalities, the equal APP pcatcstiou
of law and protection to all,
the securing to all citizens, the enjoyment of
all privileges and immunities guaranteed by
the constitution is the first duty of the ma
ton. Tn dangers OF solid South can only
be avoided by the faithful performance of
every promise which the nation has made to
its citizens. The executive Of the laws and
the punishment of all those who violate
them are the only safe methods with which
enduring peace can be secured and genuine
prosperity established throughout the
South. A solid S nth must be divided by
the peaceful agency of the ballot, and opin-
ions must there find free expression; and to
this end the honest votes must be protected
against terrorism, violence and fraud.

AN ELEaANr PRODUCTION

We publish this morning an original poem
by Mrs. Elizabeth ]. Hereford and wherein
our readers will discern the essence of gen.
uine poetry. This is the first production of
Mrs Horeiord's that the present editor of this
paper Ia, had the pleasure of reading, al.
though we understand that she has written
several pieces of surprising excellence. This
epic poem, "a Story of Frontier Life" most
forcibly reminds us of similar illusions by Sir
Walter Scott. In il, as in the latter, we have
the narrative and the descriptive, snd, sfte,
the fashion of Sir Walter, we are treated tc
woodland scene view and the extraordinary
accomplishment of a hero or heroine. In
tho rhythm we find here the use of the ana.
p@,tic foot, though not rigidly observed
wnere tho fullness of the thought or tn,
strength of the sentence nigh, be marred by
'no hainpering. The rhyme throughout il

whole. There are some expressions, how
ever, that. might. have been altered
largely in the interest Of euphony without
despoling the sense, for instance the coup
lets
alike sweet toned eolian notes.
Trough the evening air it floats"
And
"They come e'en now, the 'avags foes,
Like the swift arrows from their bows,
might have been improved by the insertion
Of the word "some" before the word "sweet'
and the ommitung of the word stoned" aftel
it, while the latter coupl might have reac
80 as to preserve the auapestic:
| clark they come. the savage foes.
Lac swift arrows from their bows "
This would have enabled moro rapit
reading to conform with the conception o
speed or swiftness. But Sir Walter con
stantly INDUCES in just such breaks, as in the
"Lord OF the Isles" where he writes:
| "Retired her maiden train among
Again he mixes up the iambic dactylic
and anap@stc with supreme disregard il
the following familiar dystich:"
| "Oh woman In our hours of ease,
| Uncertain, coy amt hard to please,
| Aud variable as the shade
| liv the light, qulverng aspen ma1ei
when pain and anguish wiring the brow,
A ministering angel thOu."
Certainly this is good precedent and
good warrant for Mrs, Hereford's liberties
with the laws of rythm and metre. The
opening or Introductory verses of "Seim
merit the remark that they are beauti
full piece of word painting, while the.gems OF
thought that ripple through the current of
the entire first verse will compare favorably
with any similar descriptive effort of its
order. The first half-dozen lines in the
fourth verse promptly recall their almost
counterpart in Marmion, where tho gallant
steed barely saves his fearless rider Just af-
ter the insult to the Douglass. The last
two lines of "Selim" are scarcely worthy
Of the piece. They are falling Oft; they
sink the thought when their characteristic
should be one of elevation. The
poem is elegantly complete without
them, and we prefer to be left thinking of
and to look upon Seim, because of his he
roic past, in some other status than that Of
"lazily brushing away flies We have given
this partial and hasty review of this poem
because of the interest we take in the mani
festation of genius in the poetic field thus So
clearly afforded by the authoress of "Selim.'
There is u something more than mere talent
that directs the pen of the subject-matter Of
this criticism, something that should be cult
waited by the possessor and encouraged
by every devoted lover of pure and
cnaste and refining literature. Had
we thought less of the piece We
would not have devoted the time nor q
space to the review, We hope to hear
frequently from Mrs. Hereford.
