) -WEST POINT. We extract.' ihc following from the letter spoken of in our paper last week, and cannot withhold our warm approbation of the sentiments it incul'cates. We are sensible its perusal will afibrd ''much satisfaction to our numerous readers, and have in consequence, deferred our own remarks to a future period. The letter breathes a spirit of lofty independence, natural to the human heart. It gives advice, adapted to evcrv depnrtmcnt in society, which must fall upon ihc ear of the vounjx and inexperi-; enced, as the rich droppings of the disciplined and ! well stored mind. It ur"es upon all, the exercise of those powers and talents conferred by an All-wise being, for the best of purposes their own happiness and condemns in toto that base subserviency to the powers that be, or that truckling adulation, which would barter independence for a title and, the privilege of indulging on the public bounty, that appears to be made, through whiciWest Point is sustained. We look upon the facts thus elicited as strong corroborative oroof of our assertions. The article is pleasingly interspersed with reflections and sentiments, which cannot fail to meet with a warm response of every true American. Public opinion has hitherto been diverted from a proper investigation of this subject, from various causes; but with the writer of the article in question, we are of opinion the time is near at hand when it will sink, like all other monopolies, beneath the withering frown of a people, the genius of whose government and the permanency of whose institutions, can only be consulted and secured by a free, equal and National system of Education. The judgment, tact and talents of the writer arc of a high order, and he possesses the important advantage of an intimate acquaintance with every subject connected with the acadamy, gathered from personal observation. That there are few more capable of advising those of our youth, who have a desire to determine their after profession or character in life, will be abundantly evident to the reader. Brief as itmav be, however, considering the importance of the subject, there is a fund of invalua ble information and sound Republican counsel embodied in its language. As it is specially intended for young men, we trust their minds may receive a due iinprcsssion, and that its benefits may be lasting, as its sentiments are correct and honorable. Let every young man, be his course in life what it may, ponder well on the truths contained in this letter, and then determine whether, in the sense of the writer, they too, "will be the children of their own actions." "In your last letter you asked my advice as lo the choice of a profossion. My suporier experience may have been the cause of this application. Your own inclinations you say have led you to prefer a military education, and that you are anxious to obtain letters for admission as a Cadet at the West Point Academy. You seem to desire my opinion as lo the propriety of this step, and I will now give it to you in the same spirit of frankness that characterizes the inquiry. You will remember that but few ever succeed who apply for admission into that institution; and those few, either the sons of men of wealth or descendants on those whom some peculiar public favors have fallen. How then can a son of a farmer of the country, with no other pretensions than these which arise from the study of Books and a humble parentage, look for success in such an application? It is the height of presumption in you to dream of such a thing! and if you have a reason to hope for the bestowment of such a favor, I would devote my latest breath in offering arguments to dissuade you from it. You are yet young. The world is before you. You have partaken largely in the kindness of the parental roof, and now participating in all the good feelings which an indulgent father can exercise towards a favorite son. Your two elder brothers have been long settled in life and you have witnessed their success. They struggled hard and amidst the buffetings of fortune . without a friend to aid them, they have triumphed over opposing obstacles. Now separated as we are, from the hearth of our childhood, we can look upon the past with no other emotion than that of a filial affection for those we left behind; and you will not fail to receive, in a spirit of charity, the advice Im3y give you, on any matter connected with your own best interests. You may yet learn that most of the solid and useful lessons of humane life, arc to be attained only from the book of experience; and as you add in years, you will see more clearly the utter imbecility and folly of all that idle parade, and empty show, to which the giddy word is so eager lo afford encouragement. lies Point has failed to fulfil its design. Originally it was intended as a school of military science for those sons of genius, the immediate descendants of American patriots, who bled in the cause of liberty. It was founded in 1802, and what added to its early celebrity, was the fact that the traitor Arnold intended its surrender to the British in the War of the Revolution. It it were necessary, or even prudent in this country to keep up such an establishment, the site on which it stands is indeed a very chosen one possessing all the romantic scenerv. and those natur al facilities which give it the appearance of a fortress of beauty and strength. But my objecton goes ionic very loundation of that institution to the principalthe utility the expense the wretched favoritism that seem to govern the selection of students to share its honors. I know full well that high and honored names were associated in its early establishment that Washington and Jefferson were its patrons and I know, too, that many who now live, whose iKmes are endeared to the heart in every real patriot, have been its friends. Its early history was free from the objections that now exist against it. Like most human institutions, it has been the prey of great abuses. Public inquiry has never been properly directed to an investigation of those abuses, and this is the true answer to the argument, that Washington

and Jefjehsov, and others have encouraged it Members of Congress, too, have encouraged it. Most of them do so yet, particularly tliGse who can educate their sons on the public charity, and succeed in procuring them comfortable sallaries when they graduate. The expenses of keeping up this expose is heavy, and what is received by the people as an equivalent? Some few favorites may add a fresh row of buttons to their coats, at a cost of some thousands, b it how is this expense reimbursed? In what way is this amount placed

back to the public treasury? Is the answer to be found 10 this, that those thus educated, thus distin guished are sent forth into the public service and rnacie 10 earn t.tai puuiic tne very money 1 T. thus cxponded I Is tins the tact? These breveted young men, it is true, are often, indcedpiite too often entrusted with the charge of important public works to the exclusion of men of talents and captivity, far their seniors. The West in particular has been brought in for a goodly share of this species of official favoritism ; and we are at this time, literally flooded with a troop of these foot dragoons, nearly as plenty as mile posts, paying for their education and segars by making all smoke before them Clothed, and fed, and paid, as they are by the government, I would like to see the problem solved, in what way they ever make return for these favors received? But there are indeed, but a small portion of them thus employed. Hundreds who receive the favors of West Point, immediately leave the service, without offering a solitary day's labour in return. I have now in my eye, several gentlemen of Ohio, the sons of men of wealth, who after filching from ! the public, the monev to educate themselves. ! have taken to the other employments. I believe at least, it is fair to calculate that one half of tho : . - . Cadets at the Military School, enter that Seminary with the mere intention of receiving an education on the bounty of the public, without the single thought of any after pursuit, connected with the objects of the institution. I know of but two solitary instances, in Ohio, out of 20 or SO who have shared in the munificence of West Point, in which the Cadets are in the actual employment of eynment; and I know of hundreds in NeMDr who never rendered the nation an hour's service. Place the annual expense of these charity scholars into the scale of national economy, for the last thirty years, and we will find a sum nearly sufficient to pay off one fourth of the National debt!!! The fact is, in whatever light it may be viewed, West Point is a germ 0 aristocracy in the land, entirely uncongenial with the nature and spirit of our free, institutions, and which cannot boar the light of investigation. You and I will nrobablv witness the catastrophe. We live under a government that sanctions no privileged orders, creeds or systems where equality prevails, and the poor and humble have a place in society as high as the highest; and where too, all distinctions should be unknown but those of the mind and of the heart. It was an admirable saying of Napoleon Buonaparte, that "it was a matter of indifference whether he was descended from an emperor or a Cobbler that every man in this world was the child of his own actions, and that ho derived his titles from the French people." Here too in this land of freedom title should be conferred only by the people. Washington wanted no other distinction. The sages and patriots who flourished in his day, were all the children of their own actions. Our bravest generals, and firmest patriots are now children of their own actions; and he who would expect great success in any station, occupation, or calling, must make himself the child of his own actions; and at no time depend upon such artificial aids as so frequently serve to make arrogant fools, and effeminate upstarts, rather than men of mind, talents or character. Resting on this basis, no man can well fail of success in this country, and he who diligently pursues the path of improvement, rectitude and dutj', will in the end find his reward in the generous confidence of a confiding public, and be enabled to hold that station among men, which nothing less than great diligence, honesty and uprightness, will enable him to attain. I am unwilling to believe vou capable of undervaluing the importance of your own personal exertions. You have no line of ancestry to boast, and I conceive it well that it is so. On your unaided efforts, must your future success essentially depend. Banish from your mind, then, the idea of press ing your application for admission at West Point, and rely upon the resources which God and nature have given you, for acquiring that character and standing in life to which you aspire. No man can well be great without industry, or learned without study; and when we look on the past history of the world, we find comparatively few of the favored and the wealthy, who have risen to any eminence. Most of tho ancient heroes, poets, statesmen and philosophers, came up from obscurity to greatness. The memorials of their renown stand amid the desolations that have marked the fall of empires, and the genius of science and learning sits weaping round their tombs. We live in aftertimes; in another age. Our country is free and prosperous. Every young man of talents has here the chance of distinction. Genius has no peculiar restraint learning no barrier preferment'no unsurmountable obstacle, and in this na tion and country, the proof is every where around us, that no man, however obscure or humble, who wills to become distinguished, and pursues the direction of that will, fails in the full accomplishment of his ambition." Remarkable Occurrence. On Friday last, while the workmen were employed in levelling the Railroad at Newark, over a piece of low spungy ground a short distance south of Market street, between Mulberry street and the river, they discovered a break or crack in the road which they had previously levelled. Shortly after an opening presented it self and the earth began to cave in and sink out of sight. Several loads of dirt were thrown in this also disappeared along with the ground, which con-

tinucd to cave in on every side, until the opening t

extendinty about sixtv feet east and west, and one hundred and hlty north and eoutn. as me earin disappeared, a body of water presented itself and rose towards the suriace. rseverai mousaim loins of dirt have been thrown in, a great portion of which has sunk away, nobody knows where. The hole is now partly filled up on the north side, but a considerable space still remains open where it first appeared. The depth or extent of this cavern has not yet been ascertained. Whilst the work of filling up was in progress, it was discovered that -1 . r a 1 1 . 11 1m tne level ground on the east side, covered with stumps anu roots 01 trees, aooutou ieet oy aoo, was rising up and forming a hill; it has now risen sever ff d ' al ieet in the c?ntre near the hole, and slopes uallv mother directions. Larra cracks arc to be 1 seen in different parts of this raised ground. 1 hese are the tacts; but whether it be a bottom less subterraneous pond of water, or a bed of quicksand, or some other mysterious agent which sucks in and devours such vast quantities of earth, we must leave to the decision of the more learned ad vocates of Symnics' thecrv.

"It is not probable that the life of man Ins diminished with the duration of the world; it is moro rearonable to suppose, that the years mentioned in the Old Testament were shorter than ours. It is a common observation, that the same term has j quite different meanings among different nations, j and even in the same nation at different periods of j its history. Tho English and Germans, for in- j stance, measure the distance of localities by miles; but it is known that about six English miles make onlv one mile in flermnnv. In the snmo wav.it ; ... ..j. - j j may be that the expression year, did not always denote the same lapse of time. It is also possible that the duration of a family, that is, of all male dc- j scendants, was considered as the continuation of of the same life, as it is still a common saying, that parents continue lo live in their children." COXSTITUTIOX. "Among the causes which contribute lo longevity, the most important is the innate bodily constitution, in this respect, savages have an advantage over civilized nations. The health of the former is more durable, and they do not experience a number of bodily and mental disorders with which the latter are molested." TEMPERATURE. "A moderate temperature is more conducive, to old age than "reat heat. The latter accelerates the natural changes of organized beings, and brings them sooner to death. Pure, dry, and cold air, moderate exercise of all the bodily and mental faculties, a good physical education in general, nd quietude of the mind, arc all very favorable to loncvitv." IMPORTANCE OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION. "During childhood, as well as in infancy, the regulation of the vegetative functions ought to be the most important point of education. A good and healthy organization is the basis of all employment and of all enjoyment. Many parents, however, are anxious to cultivate the mind at the expense of the body. They think they cannot instruct their oilspring early enough to read and to write, whilst their bodily constitution and health are overlooked. Children arc shut up, forced to sit quiet, and to breathe a confined air. This error is the greater, the more delicate tho children, and the more premature their mental powers are. The bodily powers cf such children are sooner exhausted, they suffer from dyspepsia, head-ache, and a host of nervous complaints: their brain is liable to inflammation and serious effusion; and a premature death is frequently the consequence of such a violation of nature. It is indeed to be lamented, that the influence of the physical on the moral part of man is not sufficiently understood. There ore parents who will pay masters very dearly, in hope of giving excellency to their children, but who will hesitate to spend the tenth part to procure them bodily health. Some by an absurd infatuation take their own constitutions as a measure of those of their children; and because they themsclvc3 in advanced life can support confinement and intense application with little injury to health, they conclude that their young and delicate children can do the same. Such notions are altogether erroneous bodily deformities, curved spines and unfitness for various occupations and the fulfilment of future duties, frequently result from such misunderstood management of children. Tho advantages of a sound body are incalculable for the individuals themselves, their friends and their posterity. Body and mind ought to be cultivated in harmony and neither ot them at the expense of the other. Health should be the basis, and instruction the ornament of early education. The development of the body will assist the manifestations of the mind, and good mental education will contribute to bodily health. The organs of the mental operations, when they are too soon and too much exer cised, suffer and become unfit for their functions. This explains the reason why young geniuses often descend at a later age into the class of common men. Indeed, experience shows, that among children of almost equal dispositions, those who are brought up without particular care and begin to'rcad and to write, when their bodily constitution has acquired some solidity, soon overtake those who are dragged early to their spelling-books at the detriment of their bodily frame. No school education, strictly speaking, ought lo begin before seven years of age. "The brains of dJicate children and premature geniuses ought to be exercised late, and the greater their mental activity is, the less it needs to be exercised, and the more care is to be taken of the body and the physical education. "It is also very important lo know, that during the climacteric years, when the body increases C i rapidly, the mental powers are weaker. Hence, at that period, the body deserves greater attention than the mind." a mother's dutv. "A mother ought to attend to the first education of her boys and to that of her girls entirely, hut let

"As bodily exercise particularly strengthens, as : it invitf s to sleep, and secures against great dis- J orders, it is to be generally encouraged. Ciymnas-, tic amusements imv be established fr all r.'cs i and for nil classes of society. The Jews were or dercd on the Sabbath day lo take a walk out of the . Citv; anu here, rich and poor, vounu and old, master and slave, met and indulged in innocent mirth or in the pleasures of friendly intercourse. Moses, too, instituted three national festivals, not only for the sake of religion, but also to maintain national union. Tho gymnastic exercises and national games of tho Greeks and their good effects are generally known and admired. "Why then are similar enjoyments and means of producing public spirit neglected by modern legislators? Why are priests allowed to change tho Sabbath day into a day of gloom, whilst Moses wished it to be a day of cheerfulness? The rich amuse themselves during the week, they have balls, or at least other parties of joy, in which the clergymen themselves participate; but are the poor, who work from Monday to Saturday for their sustenance, to be deprived of every kind of amusement? Will ihey not naturally be drawn to ale-houses, or at least feci inclined to indulge in drunkenness or other animal propensities, since all public amusements, even a walk in ;hc fields, are interdicted. The true sense of religion is misunderstood, and the bad consequences are unavoidable. I have reason to believe that refined civilization on the one hand, and gloom in religion on the other, arc great causes of misery 1 !! .l, anu many sccrei sins wnicn ruin me neaitiioi many individuals. The priesthood should consider it their duty to be better acquainted with human nature and the laws of the Creator, which man never violates without puttering for it. Religion cannot be instituted to make man miserable, or to prepare hirn for the mad-house." rustic ciiAitrrins. "In examining mankind at large we shall find that general happiness is founded more on morality than on intellect. Public establishments for rci lieving distress, improving morality and correcting manners, arc more beneficial to society than colleges for the study of mathematics under tli3 government of conquerors. EXAMPLE AND PRECEPT. "It is a great fault of parents and teachers to preach sobriety, and themselves to give a contrary example. The example is mora effectual than the precept. I think it also wrong to give dantics and liquors to children as rewards, for it is in this manner that they are taught to valuo them. They may enjoy the sense of taste, but they ought not to be governed by it." natural expressioxs. "In the cultivation of the feelings the natural language is of the greatest importance. Have the feeling which you wish to inspire, speak its natural language, and you will impress tho juvenile minds. Avoid particularly the natural expression of the inferior affections as of anger, jealousyi envy, impatience, etc. In showing anger to children, you give a particular lesson. Follow the example of the philosopher, who said, I should punish you if I were not annrv.1 " MANNER TO CHILDREN. "Never vex quarrelsome or obstinate children, particularly do not at length yield to them and let them have their own way; never desire such children to do what is unjust; make every demand on them quietly, but never yield." JUST AND NOBLE. "He who pursues bi3 own advantage only, so farjas he can do so without injuring another,'is"just; he who gives up his superfluity rather than to do harm lo another, is noble; he who woika only for the common welfare is the most noble, and no one but him deserves that name." HAPPY PERSONS. "There are persons who may bo called fortunate if not elect, namely, those who, from the felicity of their natural constitution, desire only what is good, who act from lovo and show pure morality in their actions. In these happy beings, the supc. rior feelings predominate much over those common to man and animals." RICH AND rOOR. There are more poor, willing to give charity from their necessity, than rich from their superfluity." SUDDEN RETRIBUTION. In yesterday's paper it was stated that a man, who had gained an entrance into one of the upper stories of the store belonging to Messrs. Kilgour &. Taylor, on Front st. fell through the hatches, into tho cellar, and was instantly killed. We have now further to state, that the body, after being interred on Sunday morning, was immediately afterwards taken up, and exhibited in the room under tiie Council-Chamber, in order if possible that it might be recognized by some ccquaintance. The skull being very much fractured, and the features of the face, in consequence, rather disfigured, the task of recognition was extremely diflicult. The body had thus laid from 11 until 1 o'clock, when it was identified as that of Jo. Johnson, who has resided

on water street, in this city, for the hst fourtrc-n years and was the father of a 1 irgc and respectable family. The body was immediately sur rendered to the family, and, by them w:is intern d, for the last timeon vesterdjv. An examination-

was made by tho City Marshal, nnd a number of .articles of merchandize, supposed to be stolen, wero discovered at his residence. This notice, brief as it i, inrglit with Jiroprietf be closed here, but justice to Mesjrs. Kibnmr V. 1 aylor, and their clerks, obliges mi to make a further j statement.

The second ytoiy was re:,ch: 1 by a flight of stairs at the back of the buildinu, at the head of which is a Fnnll room, in which a i leik sleeps. The round of footsteps aroused the clerk, . who rushed to the door atlemntcd to nvo tlm nhim 'liio probability'!, that Johnson, having his retreat cut off, and knowing the situation of tho hatchway, ran forward in order to let himself down by tfu rope, and cither stumbled or missed his hold and fell to the cellar. There is not a p tilicle (-1 cvi dcnco,on any of tho lloors, of violence bein used. 1 lie cleric hearing him 1 ill. immediately around his brother clerk, who slept in another apartment, and, procuring a light, descended to the cellar where the body was found. Tho neighbors vreto instantly aroused, and by day light, Uo coroner and his jury had made their examinations. These arc the facts, as we havo spared no pains to obtain them, wo sincerely trust that our statement of them will have tho c ilVct of removing all unjust suspicions which msy exist at present. Cincinnati Uepub. Aug.. PHILOSOPHY AND CONSISTCNCY.

Our time, our labour, our integrity, is k much ready money, which we arc to lay 1 ut to tho bett advantage. Examine, compare, choose, n ject; but btand to your own judgment, and do not like children, when you have purchased 01m thing, repine that you do not possess another, which you could not purchase. Would you be rich! Do you think that tho single point worth sacrificing every thing els to? You may, then, be rich. Thousands have beeoine so from the lowest beginning by toil and diligence and attention to the minutest articles of expense and profit. But you must give up the pleasures of leisure, of nn unembarrassed mind, and of a free unsuspicious temper. You must 1pm rn to do hard if not unjust things; uud as for the embarrassment of a 'delicate and ingenuous spirit, it is necossary for y'oii to getridof.it as fast as possible. You must not stop to enlarge your mind, jHjlii your taste, or refine your sentiments; but must keep on in one unbeaten track, withoutHuming usidc to the right er to the left. 'lhit," you say, "I cannot tubiuit to drudgery like this; I feel a spirit abovo it." Ti well; bo above it, then; only do not repiiu because you are nui ricu. Id knowledge the pearl of price in vour estim0" That too may be purchawu iy steady application, and long sohtary hours if tt'idy and reflection. 44 Hut," says tho man of letters,' what a hardship id it that many on illiterate follow, who cannot construe the motto on hid coach, shall raise to fortune, and make a figure, while 1 possess not the common necessaries of life'." Was it for fortune, then that you grew pale over the midnight lamp, and ave the SDNGrmlv vears to study anil retleohor? You, then, have mistaken your path, and ill employed your industry. ' What reward have I, then, for all my labor!" What reward! a largo coniprehcn-. sivc soul, purged from vulgar fears aud prejudices , able to interpret tho works cf man nnd (Jod-a perpetual spring of fresh ideas, and the conscious dignity of superior intelligence. (Jood Heavens! what other reward can you uskl "Hut is it not a reproach upon the economy of Providence that such a one, ?uo is a mean dirty fellow, should have nmased wealth enough to buy half u nation!" Sot the least. He made himself a mean dirty fellow for that-' very end. He has pa!d his health, his conscience, and h8 liberty for it. Do you envy him his bargain!' Will you hang your head it his presence because 'he outshines you in equipage and show! Lift up yoiit brow with a noble confidence, and say to yourself, Awe not these things, it is true; but it is because I havcN not desired them nor sought them; it is because I possess something better. 1 have chosen my lot; I am content and satisfied." Tho most characteristic mark of a great mind is to choose some one object which it considers important, and pursue that object through life. If we expect the purchase, we must pay th t w y , - - i price. We learn by Major Hirst, assistant disbursing agent, and .Mr. T. Koub, interpreter, in removing the Pottawattamie nation of Indi ans, that they were when they left them, on board the steamer Otto. tun pursuing mcir journey ana would get to their homes in ten days. They were taken on board at Alton, Miss. They were all in good health, and appeared to bo much gratified when they beard of their speedy arrival. We also understand, by letters and original signatures from the Indians that havo left, directed to the principal Chief cf the Pottawattanu nation, (Kuck Sha,) that nil manifest a great anxiety to get together; and their being so much pleased with the present Agents, .Messrs. Sands and Schoonovcr, that they have written to tlieir chief not to leave until their Agents come after them. The following is nn extract from a hitter feigned by a number of Indians viz: 44 We niv not willing to have any other head men but Mr. Sands and Mr. Schooiiover, we know them, they have been good to us, and wo want them to be che head men." They have travelled with much comfort to themselves and their Agents. One of them, (Os-se-mit,) by an accidental explosion of his gun, was wounded in his left arm, but he is not considered dangerous by their physician. Tho Agents, we understand are to return after the second company in a few weeks. We wish our red brothers a happy and comfortable home. Logan$port Timet, .
