WEST POINT. Continuation of the Examination of the Graduating Class. THE "PLEBES" AT DRILL. The Graduates Not To Be Deprived of Places in the Army. West Point, June 3, 1874. Now that by tbo high and mijjnty decision of those monsters commonly known in the regions or cadetdom as examiners, lorty-flveluotrenslve joung men, full of ambition and w ith Just enough talent not to make them eligible to West Polut ruvors and graces, have been sent home to their dear mam¬ mas, and that sixty-five other yonuir men, quite as ambitious and witn a little more successiut tateut, have been told tliat they can from tills out look opon the Academy as their home until farther orders, the breawlng-ln drillings of the "plebes" have begun In downright earnest. It may be a galling thing for a youth of proud spirit, who at home was wont to wear the prettiest of clothes and part Ins hair In the middle and wear It long and flowing tf he deemed It to the embellishment ol his general beauty, and to be treated by Jobn «.iie coachnpiu and James the waiter as A NATURAL BORN CHINCH, born to command, uud who was led to believe by the whole lumlly that the cut of oue's coat aiul the wedgnt of one's watch guard, and not the number or years ouo has graced the world with one's presence distinguished tho man from the boy. It may be a galling thing, J repeat, to such a youth after coming here to llud that he is consid¬ ered as a mere hobbledehoy, who has a great deal to learn.and ten times more than a great deal to unlearn.to lino by bitter experience in a lew short Soul's alter being lurnished with a cadet cap that his flowing locks must no longer flow, and that a close fitting hirsute covering is a military necessity, which It is Incumbent upon the official barber to see executed at all liaz ards. And yet what has been done for years in the past iu the matter of "plebe" treatment bus to be done again now as religiously as ever here, and even the love a poor lellow may always have had lor a peculiar style of shoe, or gaiter, or habit of gait.wbicu Filth avenue might determine all .grace and dignity.must needs, as or old, go once more lor nought, 'ihe fact is, tue "piebc," as the new cadet is called, is no longer to-day what lie was two weeks ago, before lie leit borne; or, rather, he is not allowed to he what lie was. And what, lorsooth, Is THE "PLEBE" OP THE PERIOD? He is not, indeed, the persecuted wretch that the "plebe" ol a lew years ago was.the butt for all the cruelties of tude practical jokers; the inces¬ sant toiler by day and by night, who carried pails of water and burnished muskets aud brightened breastplates for the older cadets, and who was dragged from his bed at the hour when grave¬ yards are supposed to yawn and ghosts who ha.'o no regard for tue proprieties to pi owl about, only to be dumped irom a wheelbarrow into some oltch or tried and condemned to no shot hy a court martial assent- bled iu a room made hideous by hangings of black, wall nonets and skulls as wall ornamentations. Thanks to the new order oi things, the "piebe" ol the period is Iree irom all these trials and tilbula- tions; but one has only to go down on the p>ain, near the barracks, tntlieaiteruoon now to see tnat he is yet a sight that makes teuderuearted girls to smile tniougli their tears and even loud brothers to grin that they are not ol the elect, bnoru oi ins llowiua locks, it he had ilowlng locks when he first came, with the military cap as the only military mark about liini, lie is made to twist and squirm aud wheel about aud staud on one toot uud Keep his chin ubove the level oi bis collar aua ins arms paluiuiiy straight down by his sides, and tlieu aud there, beloro THE GAPING GBOCrS OF VISITORS and awiu the snickering oi small boys and the , giggling oi young ladles, wuo never nave cotnpas- si-u lor misery in any shape it presents used, to preserve a ramrou attitude and luce unmoved, serious, dcternuuoU, as though to move a muscle oi iu* uriuly closed mouth or to lilt his eyeorows Were an act punishable by death mstantcr at the inoiith of a ten-inch gun.

And yet look at turn now bow, lor the sake oi the glory that is iu .store lor bun, he lakes his pumsameut, tor he certainly cannot think it a pleasure. His instructor is a cadet of the lowest class, a youugster who only a vear ago went tniougli the same orucul aud Buffered tlio same tortuies of an indignant spirit thut oared not 10 rebel, uud who, with a llgnt cuue iu iiis hand, looks a: inui as if lie liieunt every mo¬ ment to make a meal of mm iu oue swallow, aud who gives ins oruers iu a tone oi voice so lull of b ood-curdltug uieuaco Unit the wonder oi it all is ti at the poor victim doesn't mop iu his tracks and give up the gaom entirely.

AN AlUIU KBY DKIM.. There was a Ugnt batiery drill on the Plains to-du.v, winch was giten lor the special delignt of the Board of Visitors, most oi whom, you know, come hem to tie delighted, and are determined to be delighted so long us uiey are not made suiu.-rers by any or the pleasures, pastimes or military hiauuiivres that can be gneu during their stay. The third class acted as canuoulers and a select few ol the graduating class acted as tne officers of the battery, i lie guns during tne drill were splen¬ didly handled, the ciiuugiug limits, loriniug due, advancing and movements in coiuiim being espe¬ cially wed done. The great feature about these drills is the dismounting and humming oi the guns and the tinur ol one round. To u person who ior the first time witnesses a drill ui this kind the rapidity with which the pieces are taken an apart and put together again uud u round tired seems almost the work ot magic. The gni|s used were what are commonly known as three-inch urouuuco CUDS. It is oireti hi ended with considerable dan¬ ger, us every class which engages in n every year is so anxious to beat the time oi the other uud pre¬ ceding classes that ordinary precaution is not taken in handling tne pieces. A tew years ago 1 remember well that one uii- lortutiate cauct iu the drill had one o ins arms blown off irom the shoulder, one of his companions who acted as gunner having pulled the lanyard beioru the other had tune to pull out the rammer. Mill, as a general iuie, the discipline maintained during tile tit ill is such, and each man knows Ins uiucc in the battery so well, that iiccidents are but lew and lur between.

About six weeks ago, it will he remembered, a boy named Freddy English gained considerable notoriety by appearing bciorc the Board of Police and Excise Commissioners as prosecuting witness in several cases of violation of the Excise luw. The Oov, who is fourteen years or age, was engaged by the "Ladies' Temperance Society" of Brooklyn to procure evidence agaiust suspected liquor deal¬ ers. iu order to obtain convictions at the hands of the Commissioners. It was the custom of the boy to visit saloons on suuday and pui chase a lew cents worth of spirits iu a bottle. Eacn bottle was duly labelled with the Dame of the dealer,- his address and the date of purchase. The witness would produce the liquor and swear to its purchase, thereby convicting dealers oi violating the Sunday clause of the Ex¬ cise law una oi selling to iniuors. About seventy samples were procured irom as many saloons, and the examinations were progressing slowly, wncn Freddy suddenly disappeared, llis mother noti¬ fied tiie police, the Mayor and the crusaders ol the mysterious atfair, and a iruitless svarcu was insti¬ tuted ior the liusolng boy. l lie Coinmou Council finally offered a reward oi $-'ioo ior any lniormauou Unit would lead to lus recovery.

The triendsof Mrs. English hud almost given up hope when Mr. 1).

Tost6e, formerly of Bateuiau's Opera Uoutfe Company, Is confirmed beyond doubt. Her Majesty's Theatre, Loudon, still remains untenanted, Karl Dudley and Maplcson not being able to coine to terms. Gye, ol covent Garden, London, has been ap¬ pointed director of the Italian opera bouses In St. Petcisburg and Moscow. Liszt Is at woik ut a new oratorio on "St. Stanis¬ laus" and Rome will probably be tne first place to suffer martyrdom by its perlormance. To-uight the programme at Central Park Gar- den will contain many interesting novelties. Mr. Thomas' benefit will soon tak° place. Rumor savs the Gran I opera House Is about to change hands and will be converted into a mon¬ ster variety theatre, on the model of the London "Alhambra." Even with Patti, Murlmon, d'Angerl, Kaure, Kicolltil, Muurel and Clampi I11 the cast, "Don Gio¬ vanni" was a comparative failure at the Royal Italian Opera, Laudoa, on May 17. Mile.

It Is a relief from tho hot uud feverish pluys with which the stage has lat¬ terly been Inundated. Rose Hell, lurmerly of Grau's Opera Bouffe Com¬ pany, aud Kute Santley, whllotne a "Black Crook" star, are the principal attractions ut the London Alhambra in Anglicized opera bouffe. A bitter rivalry, of course, exists between them, which at one lime threatened serious consequences. Mine. Kssipoff, the Russian pianist, has appeared at the New Philharmonic concerts In London, and the critics are in ecstasies over her. She played a Rubinstein concerto and Llazt's Hungarian airs in a style to warrant the extravagant assertion or the latter maestro, "Where ^ssipoff is I am not wanted." Here la an opportunity for Mr. Theo¬ dore Thomas' enterprise. The season at the Fifth Avenue Theatre was brought to a close las: evening by the perform¬ ance of "MonBieur Alphouse" and the two first acts of "Oliver Twist." Mr. Daly deserves great credit for the variety and merit of the plays pre¬ sented during a season ot remarkable duiness. He will leave to-day with his admirable company lor Chicago, where he will occupy llooley's Opera House lor one month, and will present his whole repertoire for the amusement and delight ol the Westerners.

PRESIDENT WATSON'S UETIKESLaT. He WW Positively Retire on the 14th of July.Rumors me to His Probable Suc¬ cessor. The rumors lu regard to the resignation of Presl- dent Watson, of ttie Erie Railway, induced a re- porter to cull on that gentleman at tne Grosveuor House, where he resides, In order to uscertalu whether lie was really about to retire from the management. Mr. Watson very courteously, but also very firmly, declined to give any statement, saylug that he had great objection to being inter-' viewed. The reporter subsequently circulated ainoug the directors uud leading men of the Erie Company and lound that most of these gentlemen credited tne rumor about Mr. Watson's retire¬ ment. There is tne very nest authority lor posi¬ tively announcing that Mr. Watson will retire on the 14tn 01 July, when the anuual election is to bo held. Who his successor will be It is at present impossible to say. Among those prominently connected with the Erie KalMav the names of Messrs. llugn J. Jewett.oueoi tne directors of the Pittsburg. Ctu- rlnntttlund «t. Louis Railroad. Thomas A. scott, Commodore Vunderbill and Mr. s. L. M. Barlow have been most iiequently mentioned as probable successors oi Mr. Watson. The action of the Eug- liea stockholders WILL PROBABLY BE DECISIVE, and, as yet, It is not known whom they will favor as successor of President Watson, one oi tlie directors'of the railway, wh o begged that lus name might nut be used (its he w.sliecl to avoid Hie olnze oi puolicity consequent upon its appearance in the Herald, . said Mr. Watson's | resolution to resign his position was Irrevocable. as it was too heavy a load lor him and lie could not bear It any longer. Mr. Watson had the coutluence of the board and his retirement was greatly to be regretted. The report which he (Mr. Watson) would publish previous to his reriremcut would show that the financial condition oi the Erie Iiali- way had immensely improved and would vindlcute the course winch hud been pur¬ sued by the new maimgemeut. He was unable to say who Wuuhi probably succeed Mr. Watson, but thought that Mr. Hugh J. Jewett's chances were as good as anybody else's, a a lie was a man of great wealth and vast experience in managing railways. He thought it improbable that Commodore Vanderbilt or Tom Scott would desire to add to their muniiold responsibilities the laborious duties of u president oi the Erie Rail¬ way company.

Iheir Arrival in New York.An Interview with the Refugees-The Commune, Ii3 Origin and Meaning French Politics . Plebiscites and Their Character.The Repub¬ lic and Free Education the Onlv Hope of France. Messieurs Paschal Grous^t and Jourde, the companions 01 Henri Rocheiort 111 his escape Ironi Noumea, arrived in this city on Tuesday night and toot up the r quarters at Sweeney's Hotel, to which they were recommended by the proprietor or the hotel 111 which they stopped In San Fran¬ cisco. Being very fatigued alter their long joui imv they retired to bed almost immediately alter their arrival without seeing any one. Next morning they'wont our, in company witn some French friends, to transact some necessary business and malte a lew calls, returning about two P. M., when a Herald reporter saw them. M. Paschal Grous.sot was the first to come down, and, on the reporter introducing himself. askel ir ne would like to see M. Jourde. on a reply being given in the attlrmatlvo XI. Grousset Introduced his com¬ panion. THE TWO COMMUNAL CHIRPS are men of very gentlemanly appearance nr.d man¬ ner, and impress one at onco as being possessed or more than the average Intelligence and education. Paschal Grousset, Minuter of Foreign ltciations under the Commune, is about live lect six inches in height, or good build, with dark nalr and beard, and an eve whose quick movements and peculiarly bright sparkle show an unnilstakablv southern origin. He Is. in fact, a native of Corsica, a laud so thickly Impregnated with Uonaparttsm of the most rabid kind that It is somewhat or a surprise to meet n prominent republican who halls irom It. Ills expression is irank and open, and he looks a man siralglit in the lace when speaking, with the' air or one who is conscious of having done nothing to be ashamed of. lie speaks with great rapidity, but still with perfect clearness. There is uothtug randem about his statements, aud it is evident iroui the way he grapples with a subject that he simply gives expression to the result, of mature thought and careful consideration. A good deal of Interest attaches to XI. Grousset on account of a challenge he sent 10 Prince Pierre Bonaparte shortly before the outbreak of the Fruuco-Germau war, which resulted in the ASSASSINATION" OK VICTOR XOIR, the bearer oi the challenge, by the Prince. Though M. Grousset was then ou the statr of the Marseil¬ laise, the quarrel arose out or articles published In Corslcau pupers.one edited by M. Grousset, the other by Prince Pierre some tune previously. As the horror Inspired by this cold-blooded murder and the indignation lelt at the acquittal or the Prince had a great deal to do with accelerating the fall or the Empire, M. Grousset became from that day a famous man. His reputation as a forcl- bie and vigorous writer is aiso widespread, aud many French residents here who know his merit anticipate great results irom the restoration of two such trenchant pens as his and Rocheiort's to the ranks or the republican party in France. M. Jourae, THE COMMUNAL MINISTER OF FINANCE, Is a rather tall man, of slight build, with hair and beard of a reddish brown color, clear, blue-gray eyes and very animated expression. lie it was who really effected the escape of the pris¬ oners. As he was simply "deported" to New Caledonia, and not confined in a fortlfled place like liochefort, Grousset aud others, he was sup¬ porting himsell h.v acting as uccountant in a com¬ mercial establishment, and, therefore, had many opportunities of communicating with friends out¬ side who were desirous of helping them, and used these opportunities to such advantage that his efforts were crowned with complete success, The Interview or the Ueuai.i> reporter with the two exiles was of an entirely informal character, and tuey spoke lreeiy and unreservedly, as if chat' tiug with an old acquaintance. BnugiiiJ three chairs clo^e together, M Grousset Invited all to be seated, aud immediately the conversation opened. l ue escape, the journey here, the liiteuded move¬ ments oi iue party alter reaching Europe, the lils- tory of the Commune, the present prospt-cts ol re¬ publicanism in France.ab were toucned upon and | opinions iredly given. M. Grousset spoke cunsm- eraoiy more that Al. Jourde. the latter eon-euting himself witu occasionally expressing Ins approval and now and then enieriug into short exuia- naitons to make some point more ciear ruey had heard of M. Kocheiort's letter pun- halted in lust Suuday's Herald, but had not yet had an opportunity oi seeing It. uu hearing a sketch oi lis contents and being told ol Hie effect II hasproduced they expressed themselves unite j satisfied. Wishing to have the good opinion of a republican peopio, uud believing that here, as everywhere else, a strong prejudice prevails against tnein, they are glad that sucu publicity has been given to a portion 01 the truth, auu hope the result will oo thai tnelr teal principles, motives uuu character win in the end be properly under- siui.il. Keierrlng to the ouibreak of the Commit- ha, lusurrecrlon Ai. Grousset said:."Few people ouiside France have a proper idea oi the causes than led to the revolt.

Uu being asked about the MASSACRE OK TUB IIOSTAOKS M. Grousset said:."j'ue hostages were killed by uu miuriated crowd driven to madness by tue BU1CUKUIKS OK HIE VKKSalLLlSI'S alter the Commune aad been uelcated and the members oi the government had become hunted lugitives." XI.

The government has posses¬ sion oi all tlie machinery, and it is set to work to manufacture a pretended expression oi the popu¬ lar will.

Great anxiety was muuiiusted by both to know what the American people thought of the Com¬ mune, and on being told it was generally very un¬ favorable they said they could not wonder at it, seeing that tUcir enemies had such ample facilities lor deiunnug and misrepresenting them. Resides, tliev understood, they said, that the sympathy of the world is always withheld irom those who rebel against, an established government except they tue successful ami have the opportunity that suc¬ cess commands of placing themselves in a lavor- utile light. MM. Grousset ana Jourdc purpose taking up their residence ill England lor some time and da not intend to go to Switzerland with M. Hochefort. Their lriends of the Commune In New York will tender them a banquet, but they do not know us y§t whether tliey wli! accept it.

However prsiseworihv may have appeared the motives at Urst which have caused tnese resola- tious to be taken, nir iroui removing the enibar- rassuients ol the situation, they can only serve to cause new dilUcuitles to be added. I therefore do not know bow to accommodate inyseli to mem. a iractiou, no matter how considerable, or the Rep- reseututfvc Chamber has not the power to de¬ liberate upon and to check resolutions which nave a constitutional caa< actor. Such acts ought not to be considered as the expression ol preierences or oi feelings which every citizen has the right to address either to the executive power or to either ol the two Legislative Chambers. No more can the Senate take to itselt a decision or that importance and bestow powers which it has not.

Haytiaus, the coustltution which has created the present situation does not oiler us the means of extricating ourselves bum it. 1( it is true ihat, observing our liindameniui agreement, it is only id the case ol resiguatiou, death or impeachment that the-executive power can be cuudded to the Council oi the secretaries oi Slate, it is evident that, no one or these circumstances prevail¬ ing, it is oy a clear interpretation ol its spirit, by precedents uud by tne constl- tutiotial reason or things uiune, that we can find u mode or egress out, ol' thjs ditllculty. Rut wime the constitution provides. In a clear and precise manner, wmcu does uoi permit, even in spirit, or uuy doubt nor mutter lor interpretation, tue date ol the retirement oi the eiuei ol execu- uve power, it would, thereiore, be illegal to try by more or less ingenious menus to go beyond that date in fiudtug some purely imaginary pretext in the coustltution to Hie contrary.

The Graduates Not To Be Deprived ofPlaces in the Army.

West Point, June 3, 1874.Now that by tbo high and mijjnty decision of

those monsters commonly known in the regions orcadetdom as examiners, lorty-flveluotrenslve joungmen, full of ambition and w ith Just enough talentnot to make them eligible to West Polut ruvors andgraces, have been sent home to their dear mam¬mas, and that sixty-five other yonuir men, quite as

ambitious and witn a little more successiut tateut,have been told tliat they can from tills out lookopon the Academy as their home until fartherorders, the breawlng-ln drillings of the "plebes"have begun In downright earnest. It may be agalling thing for a youth of proud spirit, who athome was wont to wear the prettiest of clothesand part Ins hair In the middle and wear It longand flowing tf he deemed It to the embellishmentol his general beauty, and to be treated by Jobn«.iie coachnpiu and James the waiter as

It may be a galling thing, J repeat, to such a

youth after coming here to llud that he is consid¬ered as a mere hobbledehoy, who has a great dealto learn.and ten times more than a great deal tounlearn.to lino by bitter experience in a lew shortSoul's alter being lurnished with a cadet cap thathis flowing locks must no longer flow, and that aclose fitting hirsute covering is a militarynecessity, which It is Incumbent upon theofficial barber to see executed at all liazards. And yet what has been done for years inthe past iu the matter of "plebe" treatment bus tobe done again now as religiously as ever here, andeven the love a poor lellow may always have hadlor a peculiar style of shoe, or gaiter, or habit ofgait.wbicu Filth avenue might determine all.grace and dignity.must needs, as or old, go oncemore lor nought, 'ihe fact is, tue "piebc," as thenew cadet is called, is no longer to-day what liewas two weeks ago, before lie leit borne; or,rather, he is not allowed to he what lie was.

the "plebe" ol a lew years ago was.the butt forall the cruelties of tude practical jokers; the inces¬sant toiler by day and by night, who carried pailsof water and burnished muskets aud brightenedbreastplates for the older cadets, and who wasdragged from his bed at the hour when grave¬yards are supposed to yawn and ghostswho ha.'o no regard for tue proprieties topi owl about, only to be dumped irom awheelbarrow into some oltch or tried andcondemned to no shot hy a court martial assent-bled iu a room made hideous by hangings of black,wall nonets and skulls as wall ornamentations.Thanks to the new order oi things, the "piebe" olthe period is Iree irom all these trials and tilbula-tions; but one has only to go down on the p>ain,near the barracks, tntlieaiteruoon now to see tnathe is yet a sight that makes teuderuearted girls tosmile tniougli their tears and even loud brothersto grin that they are not ol the elect, bnoru oi insllowiua locks, it he had ilowlng locks when he firstcame, with the military cap as the only militarymark about liini, lie is made to twist and squirmaud wheel about aud staud on one toot uud Keephis chin ubove the level oi bis collar aua ins armspaluiuiiy straight down by his sides, and tlieu audthere, beloro

PRESIDENT WATSON'S UETIKESLaT.

He WW Positively Retire on the 14th ofJuly.Rumors me to His Probable Suc¬cessor.

The rumors lu regard to the resignation of Presl-dent Watson, of ttie Erie Railway, induced a re-

porter to cull on that gentleman at tne GrosveuorHouse, where he resides, In order to uscertaluwhether lie was really about to retire from themanagement. Mr. Watson very courteously, butalso very firmly, declined to give any statement,saylug that he had great objection to being inter-'viewed. The reporter subsequently circulatedainoug the directors uud leading men of the ErieCompany and lound that most of these gentlemencredited tne rumor about Mr. Watson's retire¬ment. There is tne very nest authority lor posi¬tively announcing that Mr. Watson will retireon the 14tn 01 July, when the anuual election isto bo held. Who his successor will beIt is at present impossible to say.Among those prominently connected withthe Erie KalMav the names of Messrs. llugn J.Jewett.oueoi tne directors of the Pittsburg.

| resolution to resign his position was Irrevocable.as it was too heavy a load lor him and lie could notbear It any longer. Mr. Watson had the coutluenceof the board and his retirement was greatly to beregretted. The report which he (Mr. Watson) wouldpublish previous to his reriremcut would showthat the financial condition oi the Erie Iiali-way had immensely improved and wouldvindlcute the course winch hud been pur¬sued by the new maimgemeut. He wasunable to say who Wuuhi probably succeedMr. Watson, but thought that Mr. Hugh J. Jewett'schances were as good as anybody else's, a a lie wasa man of great wealth and vast experience inmanaging railways. He thought it improbablethat Commodore Vanderbilt or Tom Scott woulddesire to add to their muniiold responsibilities thelaborious duties of u president oi the Erie Rail¬way company.

There is uothtugrandem about his statements, aud it is evidentiroui the way he grapples with a subject thathe simply gives expression to the result, of maturethought and careful consideration. A good dealof Interest attaches to XI. Grousset on account of a

challenge he sent 10 Prince Pierre Bonaparteshortly before the outbreak of the Fruuco-Germauwar, which resulted in the

ASSASSINATION" OK VICTOR XOIR,the bearer oi the challenge, by the Prince. ThoughM. Grousset was then ou the statr of the Marseil¬laise, the quarrel arose out or articles published InCorslcau pupers.one edited by M. Grousset, theother by Prince Pierre some tune previously. Asthe horror Inspired by this cold-blooded murderand the indignation lelt at the acquittal or thePrince had a great deal to do with acceleratingthe fall or the Empire, M. Grousset became fromthat day a famous man. His reputation as a forcl-bie and vigorous writer is aiso widespread, audmany French residents here who know his meritanticipate great results irom the restoration oftwo such trenchant pens as his and Rocheiort's tothe ranks or the republican party in France.
