A Letter from Daniel Webster to His
A correspondent of the Boston Traveller,
writing from Exeter, N. H., gives extracts from
a letter by Daniel Webster to his son Edward,
about the time the latter commenced his studies
at Phillips' Exeter Academy, which school ho
himself at one time attended :
WASHINGTON, June 23, 1834.—My Dear ,on:
:Fletcher wrote me from Exeter the next day after
your arrival, and informed me that you had been
-so fortunate as to be received at Col. Chadwick's,
and was commencing your studies. lam glad
you are so well situated, and I trust you will
make Progress in 3 our studies. You are at a most
important period of life,my dear son, soon grow
ing up to be a young man, and a boy no longer,
and I feel great anxiety for your success. 1 be-.
seecb you to ho attentive to all your duties, and
to fulfil every. obligation with cheerfulness and
.punctuality. Above all, remember your moral
and religious concerns. Be constant at church
.and prayer and every appointment for worship.
There can be no solid character and no true hap
piness which are not founded on a sense of reli
gions duly. Avbid all evil company, and every
temptation, and consider that you have now left
your father's house and gone forth to improve
your own character, and prepare your mind for
the part you are to act in life. AB that can be
done for you by others will amount to nothing,
unless you do much for yourself. Cherish all
thegood counsel which your dear mother used
to give you, and let those of us who are yet alive
have the pleasure of seeing you come forward as
3ne who gives promise of virtue, usefulness and
distinction., I fervently commend you to the
:blessings of our Heavenly Father. * * *
I happen to have two small Mass. bills: they
do not go here, and I inclose them to you, to be
used it you have occasion, to buy a book, or
spend a dollar for any other article. * *

THE WEST JERSEY RAlLROAD.—Undgabtedly
pieisantest time to visit the sea shore is the
latter part of the summer, when the intense heat
is'over, and the bracing sea breeze is not enjoyed
simply eta a cooling agent for overheated bodies.

the citydnring the sweltering July days, repair
ing in these months to the seashore to recuperate
in an atmosphere that in its healthful and invig
orating qualities acts like a tonic upon the syeterct.
The arrangements made by the West Jersey
Railroad Company for the accommodation of
those who desire to visit the Belabor° are of the
most convenient and complete character. The
express train, which leaves here at .4 o'clock P.
M.,. arriving at Cape May at 6.55, and. returning,
leaves tape Island at 9 A. M., reaching Philadel
phia at 12.07 P. M., is especially convenient for
business men, both on account of the excellence
of the hours and of the quick time made. The
other trains also leave at most,convenient hours,
and on this road the schedule time is strictly ad
hered to, so that passengers can always rely upon
mot:aptness, and an absence of annoying delays.
The excellent management of ads road, the care
ful attention of employes to their duties, the
politeness of the conductors, and the comforts
afforded passengers, have had their legitimate
effect, and the business of the road has increased
to such an extent that it promises soon to attain
the highest condition of prosperity.
One of the best evidences of the Company's en
terprise is to be found in the excellence of the
famous Sea Breeze 'Hotel, erected by them at
Cape May for the use of excursionists. This is
one of the largest, most admirably fitted and de
lightfully situated of any of the sea-side houses
in the country, and excursionists are certain to
and in its ample rooms, halls and porticos,evety
thing that can contribute to their comfort and
their enjoyment. To those of our readers who
have never visited Cape Island by the railroad
route we suggest that a trip, in this way, and es,
pecially at this time, will afford them rare
pleasure.
THE CAPE. MAY CARNIVAL.—On Saturday eve
ning next, the 18th ir st , a "grand Fancy Drcas,
Calico, and Citizens' dress ball" will be given in
the monster ball room of the ,Sea Breeze House,
Cape Island. This great entertainment will be
given under the supervision and direction of Mr.
Mark Hassler, whose fine string and braski band
will furnish the music for the dancers. The ball
room of the Excursion House is one of the
largest and handsomest in the country, and upsn
this occasion it will. be decorated in the
most splendid manner with flags, wreaths and
jets of light. It is expected that the display
of costumes will be varied and elegant, and as
the hotels on the Island at present contain large
numbers of fashionable people, the ball will not
only be superb iu the richness of the dresses
worn, but that the assembly will be very large,
and will embrace a fair representation of the
beauty and fashion of this and neighboring
cities.

Death of a noted Horseman.
The graveyard—how full of contrasts is its
uniformity—or is its jostling of infancy and
manhood, youth and old age, but a lesson to
us. teaching, there is after all no distinction
to be made in these differences which seem
such striking contrasts to us? A day and a cen
tury must seem both equivalent and each
shorter-lived than a bubble when seen through
the vista of trackless years—l 'Teak not of
eternity. The graveyard 'claimed this week a
young man not forty. who also attained
Fame's guerdon. A race horse seems as ca
pable as Pegasus of reaching this goal. It
was on a hunter's - back Viscount Artus Ta
lon reached reputation. He was a descendant
of the eminent juris', Omer Talon and his
family is one of the very few noble
families of France which possesses a title
without the aristocratic particle de. His
love for horses was an unrequited love. Ido
not mean to say he never won one of those
Steeple chases of which he was so passion
a'ely fond—he repeatedly carried off cups in
England and here—but the prize he oftenest
won was a broken bone. I scarcely remem
ber to have read of his running without ob
serving he at least dislocated some bone.
Pin your faith 021 probabilities! This man
whose death on the turf seemed inevitable,
for he had. broken every part of his
body some half dozen times—his neck
only excepted—died of rheumatism con
tracted in the Crimea. War seemed
a more exciting sport than steeple chasing,
and he enlisted as a private in a cavalry reg
iment. His daring horsemanship and rest
less activity Soon won him an officer's com
mission, which he threw up on the restora
tion of peace. He came home with the
rheumatism in every limb. A cripple to a
degree which would have rendered most men
bedridden, nevertheless he continued to put
himself regularly into training, although for
many months past he has not been able to
sleep except by dint of morphine and with
its aid never more than two out of twenty
four hours... Week before last, desperate
as hiS condition was, he determined to
rula a race at Baden for which he had
entered. His: friends in vain remonstrated
with him, ride he would ; but as he was
mounting he was seized with a nervous crisis
and he rolled on the floor for more than an
hour, and when taken up was fitter for a
coffin than a saddle. He had found relief
from the baths at Aix and thither he resorted.
On his way to Lyons he was seized in the
railway carriage with another violent ner
vous crisis, which reduced him so low, hist
wife thought it prudent to carry him to the
hotel nearest the railway station. He nevar
rallied and int. a feW hours breathed his last.-

patella of a Young Lady from Dleap.
pointment in Love.
, [From the Ee= Journal, Aug. 12]
A sad but interesting case of the death of a
young lady named Susan King is a general topic
of conversation at Woburn at the present time.
The deceased had been affianced to ayoung man
to whom, it appears, she was deeply attached.
Some weeks Since ' she happened •to, ob
serve him in company with another
young woman, under :such circumstances
as to give rise to feelinini. of jealousy
on ber part. She upbraided him for his
ce conduct,
slid he replied to her remonstrances in a spirited
manner, which further provoked her to dismiss
him. It seems, however, that she still cherished
in secret the old affection, and the disappoint.
wont so weighed upon her mind as to cause a
severe nervous attack, resulting., about ten days
since, in utter prostration. She remained in
this condition until her death, • which oc
curred on. Saturday last. The circumstan
ces having been so peculiar,; and tho malady
having baffled the skill of the physicians, it was
deemed proper an autopsy should be performed, -
which was done on - Monday by Drs: Cutter and
Abbot. No trace of disease, or obvious cause of
death was discoverable, but the system was ap
parently in an entirely healthy and normal con
dition. The deceased was aperson of excellent,
character and fine personal appearante, and was
much esteemed and beloved.
