Isaac PARBONB. “ placed.”
--Ig-M- In Wilkes' Spirit of the Timet, certainly
the belt sporting paper in the world, the cause
of this defeat Is stated, in one of the very
graphic letters from London, by Mr*' George
Wilkes, which add great value to his journal.
Mr. Wilkes accompanied Mr. Edward Tat
tersall to see the horses saddled before the
race. He says:
“ The word we bad heard all the morning was
that Umpire was sure to wio, but that he was a
four-year old, and would not got the stakes. Mr.
Tattersall himself thought hU chanoo tbe best,
but on breaking through the orowd that followed
,tbla star of the occasion, as he was led about, and
taking a rapid look at him all over, fell book with
: the remark : ‘ Well, I don’t like his looks to-day!’
“Indeed, the horse, .though the very model of a
l raoer, seemed pinched and overdrawn, and did not
exhibit that steel and elasticity that was required
for a winner of the Derby. Nutbourne, who was
of the same oolor and also of the same grand pro
portions, showed in muoh finer trim, and booamo
at once a great favorite for the race, while Umpire
reoeded in proportion Wizard, however, one of
the most race-like looking horses I ever saw, held
a firm,oommsnd. and those who were on him felt
renewed confidence from his firm yet springy
step. We roturned,, after a brief visit to
this quarter, to tbe grand stand just in time
te see tbe glossy swarm pour forth upon the green
.award and bowl over it in a preliminary cantor.
-Thormanby went grandly by, the Wiiard swept
along like a low fifing bird, out Umpire, .who had
so frightened all the book makers, and whose name
had all tho morning made them hold their breath,
galloped by with a short and slinking stride that
took every observer by-surprise. My heart sank
within me, and it required all my patriotism to
maintain oven' a little hope. I, was. prepared,
therefore, for the eight whloh supervened, of seeing
him led by other horses, as Cenßor will tell you in
his report from the start; led up the hill and
around It, passed when third at Tottenham corner,
whfeh is the beginning of the straight run in, and
finally beaten to a fifth plaoe, which in English
racing Is no place at all, at the coming in. Thufa
ended the hopes of America for the Derby of 1860,
and thus ended snoh a chance to win the broad
blue ribbon which depends upon it, as will not pro
bably come again for an American bred horse In
twenty vAiu-a.”
Mr. Wilkes then proceeds to state what, in
his opinion, is the* philosophy of the American
defeat:
“ We havo in tho United States, or rather w 6 had
a month ego, a trainer whose' reputation for pre
paring horses for a race stands above all others of j
the same profession, and I have no hesitation in
saying that this is a distinction whloh he has meri
toriously earned. For three years it has been the
oonßtant endeavor of Mr. Ten Broeck r and of
others associated with him, to obtain this trainer
(Mr. Benjamin Pryor) to aid him in his experiment'
of the Amerloan campaign in England. Mr. Pryor,
however, being woil enough to do at home, and
being moreover timidly apprehensive of' the sea,
persistently refused all these offers till the present
spring. The prospect, however, whloh was pre
sented of Umpire winning the Derby, and the
temptation of being present and contributing to
wards It, was too muon for him. and he reaobed
Eogland about ten dajk before' tne raoe. Mr. Ten
Broeok for once forgot his judgment; thepatlont,
pains-taking, and really sensible trainer, who had
watched almost every breath drawn by Umpiro
for tbe lost six months, was virtually superseded,
and tbo great man set about mixing his genius with
the horse. Ignorant, of course, of the olimate and
the ground, and never having had an opportunity
to study the tearing effects of breezing a horse for
a long distance over the tnrf in a straight lino, he
took tbo horse out and spun him over the entire
Dorby course, on the Saturday previous to the
raoe, and on tho very day before it sent him round
at speed again. The result toas f that the horse ,
which was thus made actually to run the Derby
twice within three days, was galloped to death ,
and used up when called upon to start for the
aetual event. As a proof that he was thus beaten
and exhausted, the raoe was not a fast race, being
run, as It was. in two minutes and fifty seoonds, a
time whloh Umpire could easily redace by five
seconds If he were right.”
If wo recollect rightly, Mr. Ten Broeck, a
couple of years ago, lost a race, in England,
by mounting his horso with an American i
jockey, who had not even trotted over the |
conrse, to ’ know its nature, before tho race.
« Censor/' another writer in Wilkes * Spirit,
says: « Five word# will he' sufficient for my
purpose: * Umpire was trained to death/
The ftble tells us a matter it is to
pleaso everybody ; Umpire's condition on Wed
nesday pleased nobody . A keen observer of
horses in work, said on the Monday above
mentioned: <lf he wins a Derby it is time to
leave off training.' He said rightly,”
Thus, the public who take interest in snoh
things may know how it happened that “ the
blue ribbon of the Turf” has not come to
America. *
The nows of the result of The Derby, reached
this country, this year, with unusual rapidity.

Rklioious Movekest is a re
cent number of the London Quarterly Review ,
we learn that the religions movements now pro
gressing in Sweden bare already been attended
with the most extraordinary remits. Out of a
population of 3,500,000, the lowest estimates plaoo
the number of converts which have been made at
250,000. Everywhere, meetings for worship, and
hearing tho Seriptnres, are being largely attended;
and what, to stratght-laced bigh-ohnrohmen, may
scorn most remarkable, is that the great mass of
human means employed in this work has been the
pious efforts of laymen, inspired for their noble
work, not by the love of fame or luore, but by the
meek .and lowly Spirit of their Divine Master,
who, judging, from the frutt of their labors, has
evidently Himself ordained them for the work in
whioh they are engaged. The moral oonsequencea
of this religious movement have been exceedingly
gratifying. Drinking has so far oeaaed that two
thirds of the distilleries have been closed. In the
parishes bordering on Russia, whets nearly every
man waa guilty of smuggling, hundreds of persons
have refunded the duties of whleh they.hsd de
frauded the Government, in many cases even selling'
their property to obtain the monoy. We may rest
assured that an infiuenee whioh thus qniokens the
conscience'and tells upon the notions of vast num
bers of people, has straok deeper than the Phari
see’s cloak—that, in faot, It is the work of God
sanatlfying the heart of belieters.

Fort Constitution, which was erected immediate

considerable importance. In the days of the Re

The French word cadcty was first used officially
in 1734, when Congress provided for the raising of
a corps of artillerists to which'should be attend
eight cadets. * The word signifies junior, as His-,
tinguiahad from aim, the elder, and was Anglicised
when it beoamo fashionable in England to'enlist
the aoions of aristocraoy. to the service of.,the East
India* Company: f "Transplanted

Originally the Academy was : started by the en
terprise of a private oltisen, inthe year 48Q1.[ It
rose to nothing beyond a mere aaathematioal school 4
and soon few into disorder. After the passage of
the law of giving to tbuiiißtitßtioh a national
cbaraoter, President Jefftnon suggested to. Coni
grass the propriety of removing the achoq] to
Washington, In order to have the paplls. under the
immediate eyeof the Government, and fresh
impulse to the Naval Department. The proposi
tion was happily rejected.
Attained to the Academy there ,are ppw • store
keeper, a tailor,’ ahd a shoemaker, ready to supply
the youths with neoeasary artioles at oustomary
)riocs, payment for whioh is easily made out of
heir pay, now amounting to twenty-eight dollars
>er month. They rise at 5At M. 'ra rammer and
at 6A.M. in wlnter; and they devote’to study all
the hours of the day,until tattoo at 9 P. M.f ex*
ooptthe time required for their meals, emir-one*
half hour after each allowed for recreation. ~Somi
oaptious persons have been heard to object to
the' Academy* the- attacks upon it have
not been confined to individuals, for ,ln 1833 they
were dignified by a resolution of the Legislature
of Tennessee calling forits abolition, on the ground
that a few young men, eons of distinction, by the
favor of members of Congress, gained their educa
tion at the public .expense, and to the detriment of
those not sp fortunate as, to have friends able t 6
foroe them Into this aristooratical institution.
In the following year,Qhio spoke of it as partial
in its operation, and inconsistent with the spirit
and genius of oar liberal Institutions. It was aftezf
wards attacked by .the Hon. F*. 0.1. Smith, of
Maine, in a resolution of the most savage descrip*
tion, assarting that the West Pointers formed no
part of the army, and had so claim on the public
treasury. But the opinion of William Wirt, the
former AttorneyOeneral, was quoted, showing that
tbeae.youtbs were subject to oourt-martiaVand tb
all the laws regulating the army; and the objec
tion soon fell to the ground, especially as the law
of 1838 required theoadet to serve faux years After
his graduation, and Congress being empowered at
any time to extend .the period ojP Service. This
answers, too, the constitutional objection, that
Congress oqnnot endow a seminary ot teaming; f°*
the oadets are hot merely students, but a grade of
officers en duty, and'oonaltioned so as to be able to
aooomplisb .themselves in that duty much more
completely than if taught after being regularly
commissioned. .
The aristocratio really
Thu 19 a real Bepuihe. No quarter is shown,
and no favor is expeoted. Even now, the son of
one of the most opulent and powerful men in
America is here, under a promise from bis fathei
of two hundred thousand ‘dollars If he 'wifl’eicel
his companions at his examinatlon/and' fifty thou
sand if ne shall succeed In gradnatibg. Having
served his term, the young man will graduate, but
he will not reoeive the larger ram, as he stands
nearly at the foot Of hiselass.'
No one can vi it thU seat of learning without
being impressed with a sense of its natural import*
anoe. Every youth Who enters here comes out a
.national 'man. Whatever he does Is dose in obe
dienoe to the .spirit, spt< of a' faotSon, but of the
whole oountry, and whatever of credit or honor
-with whioh his toils am rewarded, comes wafted to
him laden with the fragrance of nationality. He
is theohild of the Republic; and he stands pledged,
by his o&th, and by his saored honor, to defend her.
against every' foe, whether foreign or, domestic.
Let all unite, then, in exposing audrefomtng such
blemishes as may hero be found, remembering that
‘ nothihg human is faultless; and that, in these fear
ful days of strife’ and discord, whatever comes to
us, consecrated by the stripes and stars, is a boon
worthy of our prayers forever. Califobria.

Another Mystery Come to Light.
"death-bed co.vpe si rex —stastiixo dxvxlop-
The residents of Dutchess county are now labor
ing under great excitement, 1 caused by the confes
sion of a dying man In Beekman, in that county,
>:to a participation in. s-horrible murder, which took
placenaarly twenty years ago. The particulars,
up to.the latest accounts, are as follows: A man
named He'nry Harrington, an old resident of Beek*
man, Dutchess oounty, has for so me trine past beta
fast declining by consumption, and on 1 Monday
night b?eathe4 his last.. Before he expired, how
ever, be appeared in great agony, something ap
parently weighing upon JUs conscience, when ha
at’ last exclaimed that he could hot die without
making 4 confession. Five or six persons who
were in the house at the time at onee eeme around
the bed of the dying man,, when he commenced
with account of a terrible deed of blood.
1 ' He ‘proceeded tb state. that, some eighteen or
‘twenty'years igo, be and ’another man ( both
then employed in the Beekman Iron Fac
tory) were in the factory woods one afternoon,
when a pedlcr named Lee was seen coming in that
direction, and f hires at once agreed between them
to waylay, murder, and then rob aha, when they
should bury him in the woods, and carefully re
move all traces of the deed. This was accordingly
done, the unconscious pedlcr trpdglug along with
bis pack upon his shoulder, and singing gaily, when
the murderers rushed from' their hiding place,
rtrnok him senseless to the ground, and then de
liberately dashed outhia brains. He was at onee
taken up and buried in the factory woods, when,
as agreed upon by them, all traces ef the deed were
carefully obliterated, after which'they took 'diffe
rent directions tad returned to the village.
; Before the conscience-stricken wretch oouid
fiuUh . his confession, death sealed his lips, but
enough, had already been said by him, a& to nil as
sociate . In crime, and the place where Lee was
buried; that but little more eorild have been added.
The man whom Harrington accused as being im
plicated with him in the deed Jaffc -Beekman very
suddonly eight or nine yeazsricoe, and from that
time to thiab»s never, bpen heard, from or seen.
The affair will he thoroughly investigated, and
some time this week a party'wtH start out for the
factory woods for .the purpose ef searching for the
body of the murdered, podler. ? •.
There is little doqM.nni that the above is relia
ble, as several yet live In Dutchess oounty who well
remember a Lee; the pedler,” tad that he sud
denly disappeared 'about: twenty years since, and
never. Agaur made his appearance in thneounty.
The tuddan. disappearance of,Banington r a asso
ciate, the unsettled mind of the qoufepaor, apd the
.confession itself, all bear witness that the murder
wta obmmHted, without a doubt, and that every
word uttered was truth.— N Y, Triburu y Juns 15.
