RETALIATION. *
The LoaigTllle Journal, in an a'ticle on the
retaliatory measures for Massachusetts nul
lification. which will probably be adopted
bv the legislatures of the Southern States,
mentions an incident showing that retalia
tion is very likely to go beyond the offence
which calls it forth. When Rev. Mr. Denni
son's servant was violently, and against her
own will, wrested from her master in Ohio,
a couple of keel boats, from Cincinnati,
were lying at a Southern city. Ai soon as
the intelligence of tho outrage reached that
place it was proposfeu to destroy those boats
and their cargo, and it was only Upon the
most argent solicitation of some of the lead
ing members of tho community that the de
sign wis abandoned.
We are no advocates of mob law, even in
retaliation for mob law. Rut wu neverthe
less tulieve that a temporizing policy is ru
inous to the South. There ought to be in
stant reprisal for every dollar's worth of
Southern propei ty stolen in the free State 3.
The commercial classes of the North would
tind it to their interest io become active in
support of the laws of the land.
THE CiUUSTIAN UNION &UOAZINE
Tiiis io the title of a new monthly religious
periodical, Williiui I'ottcv, editor and pro
prietor, published in this city in very hand
sale fetyle, at thu press of Thomas Bailie.—
The olject of this publication, as stated by
the editor, is "to promote aad encourage a
spirit of love, and concert of action in the
cause of Christianity, among all evangelical
denominations." The contents of tkß June
number are:
Love among (Jhiislians urged, by liev. Dr.
Sparrow, of the Protestant Episcopal Semi
nary of Virginia; liichmond Young Men's
Christian Association; Youug Men's Mis.
sionary Society of Kichmond in 1818; Do
mestic Missionary Society of liichmond, the
Ministry ; Sectarianism; the Last Game of
Cards ; Maxims for a Young Man; the Mys
tery of a Christian, tec. $2 per annum in
advance. Price of single numbers, 12 1-2
cents.
RAILItOAD AND STEAMBOAT ACCI
DENTS.
The legislatures of the several States owe
it to the safety and lives of the people to
adopt the most stringent laws to prevent the
destruction of life and limb that so fre
quently occurs on railroads and steamboats.
The heaviest penalties should be affixed to
the practice of racing, which has been the
fruitful cause of so many terrible disasters. —
The community also ought to refuse its pat
ronage to every line of travel on which the
dangerous practice of racing prevails. It
is criminal in the highest degree, to put
human life to hazard from the childish am
bition of surpassing a competitor in speed,
or gaining an hour or two in time at the
ribk of exchanging time for eternity.
HORACE GREELEY.
According to the N. Y. Herald, Greeley
has not yet got clear of the French Courts.
It appears that by the law of France, when
a citizen sues a foreigner for debt the plain
tiff may refuse all bail, or may demand that
the whole sum claimed shall be deposited in
Court to await the decision of the Judge.—
The Herald is of opinion that Greeley has
probably escaped from confinement by indu
cing some of his friends in Paris to deposit
twelve thousand francs as security for him,
and that he will eventually have to pay that
sum.
MASSACHUSETTS NULLIFICATION.
It is a suggestive fact that no public meet
ing has yet been held in Boston expressing
disapprobation of the late Nullification Law.
Yet it is said that the people of Massachu
setts disapprove that law. If so, why do
they not meet and condemn itWhy does
not the press denounce it ? The truth is, the
people of Massachusetts, with some excep
tions Hi Boston, thoroughly approve the law.
As to threats of retaliation by the South,
they regard that as all Southern 'gas,' and
trestt the idea of such a thing with supreme
incredulity and indifference.
THE FIVE POINTS.
A Paris letter writer says that a young lady
from New York, (doubtless oue of the highly
intelligent and accomplished "upper ten" of
that city.) while on a late visit to Paris, ven
tured upon the dangerous ground of politi.
cal discussion. The subject was the guar
antees under discussion at Vienna. "Why,"
said she, "I have heard of these Five Points
ever since I was girl; they seem to take a
long time to settle." It is suspected that the
young lady must be of kin to Mrs. Parting
ton.
FIG LEAF SENSIBILITIES.
A northern journal commenting upon what
bluff old Dr. Johnson used to call •' the i«t
--m idesty of affected modesty,'' relates seve
ral amusing anecdotes illustrating St. Paul's
position that "to the pure, all things are
pure." He says that when Greenough's
Chauuting Cherubs were first sent to Boston,
the City Fathers of that pure and pious town
refused to license the exhibition unless they
were clothed, and accordingly the two hea
venly infants came before the public in linen
diapers. In the same city an Italian dealer
in vases, statuary, Ac., offered for sale a
sleeping Cupid. A person who wished to
purchase suggested to the Italian an altera
tion with his chisel, fearing that the statue in
its then state would offend the modesty (?) of
his friends. The Italian was simply indig
nant, and in relating the occurrence to im
acquaintance, said that the man capable of
suggestion must be the most impure
and depraved of beings.
was once congratulated by
a lady that he bad omitted from bis diction
«y *" thf naughty words. He replied,
J »e« madam, yog hurt been
looking for them."

ARRIVAL OF THE HER.MANN.|
The atearner Hermann arrived at her wharf at
New York Thursday morning with advice# from
Liverpool to the 20ih ult, containing interesting
information though not so lata by tnree days as
that l>y the Atnerica( which will be louad under our
Uslest cwi head.) A letter trorn a French tfficer
ia theCr m a, ajs:
" fhe health ot the army ia good. Epidemic dis
ease* were apprehended, but owing to precautions
taken by the chief physician of the army they have
not yet appeared Cholera and typhus have cot
assumed an epidemic character."
Another letter »bjs: "The cholera had sensibly
diminished Id the camp* before Sebastopol, but baa
attacked the guards and 31st regiment near Balak-
Ihvb, and some of the new batteries as well as Ihe
follower* of the army It was also raging in the
Sardinian contingent."
THK SEA or AZOFF.
News from the Sea of Azof!" continues good for
the allies. The occupation of those waters is
much more serious than was supposed. Genitchi,
Arabat, Marionpol and Taganrog are ours, and
strategic routes of greatest importance have been
cut and wells filled Ships have beeu destroyed
and vast quantities of supplies burned. It is cal
culated that these establishments contained three
months' iood for the Russian army. The geuerala
have still more extensive projects before them as
reinforcements are on the point of leaving for Ka
miescbl.
Lord Raglan writes that previous to the Ilus
siaas evacuaticg Soundgaw Kaleh the troops de
stroyed the principal buildings and armament,
which consisted ot (10 heavy guns and C mortars,
and it is concluded they have joined the garrison ot
Anspa, whence many inhhbitants removed. The
recent gallant exploits ot the navy spread joy in
the allied camps and afford vast satisfaction to
every Individual in the army.
A NEW MOVEMENT.
A body ef French troops under General Morris
Caorobert, and a column of the Sardinian corps,
made reconnolsance on Baidar, on the morning ot
the 3d. The former proceeded along the Woron.
zotf road, and pushed their cavalry several miles
t.eyond Baidar. The latter operated on the left,
through Mowous District, and advanced into Bai
dar. Only a small number of Cossacks showed
themselves.
The French loss in the combat on the Gth was
600 killed and 2,000 wounded. The Russian loss
was three times greater.
THE CONDITION OF SEBASTOPOL.
The Berlin correspondent of the London Times
write*, June 12:h, that official reports state that Se
bastopol no longer exhibits the same satisfactory
picture of things as It. did previous to the last bom
bardment. The south sldeot the town suffered
very considerably; numbers of houses were in
pilus of ruins.
Ot othsrs. only the external walls were distin
guishable. The theatre, which was endeared to
the Russians by so many recollections, has ceased
to exist. The northern portion of the town has not
suffered so much, but yet there is hardly a house
there the wall or roof of which has not been per
forated by grenade shells, balls or rockets, or the
window panes and frames of which have not been
destroyed by fragments of exploded shells The
inhabitants of Sebastopol have, however, by no
ineaus deserted the town. With few exceptions
they continue to occupy their bouses. Even
though greatly battered, traffic in the shops and
warehouses is represented as being kept up with
but little diminution. Even the hotels are not
shut.
The only promenade which is left the fashiona
ble world is the New Boulevard in the neighbor
hood ot the Kasartki* Monument, trom which
there i* a tine view. On one aide, surrounding the
mountains the »yes takes in the allied camp,
trenches and fortifications, and on thejother side,
over the sea, with the allied fleets keeping ward
and watch over the Crimea.
On the northern side the steamers and boats are
seen all day and night plying to and from the
Catherine harbor, ladened with gabions, (ascitis
balls, sheila, powder and material de guerre of all
sorts; while on the landing placea, stores, cannon,
carriages, mortars, beams "and other artillery ma
terials are piled up.

Lhwgtos, Va., July i, 1855.
Notwithstanding the heavy shower of rata that
poured down early this morning.the booming of the
cannon from the Institute hill, announced that the
alorlous Fourth had dawned once more upon a
free and happy land
Long e'er the lime had arrived for the
of the day to commence, the Preabyterlan Church
w*B filled by the vast throng of persons assembled
here to join in the celebration of this birthday of
Liberty. At the appointed hour the handsome
corps of cadets, preceded by Volant's Band, with
tbe Professor* ol the Institute, the Board of Vis
itors and the Alumni Military Association marched
to the Church, The pulpit was occupied by the
Rev Messrs Kepler, Mason and McKlwee, ana the
platform in front,by the Board of Visitors and Pro
A,ter » Player was offered up by the fUv
Mr McElwee, Cadet 1-aunUeroy, of Frederick, read
the Declaration of Independence; and Cadet Rum
bough, of Lynchburg, delivered the Amrfrfcrsary
oration. » *
The exercises of the gradaatlaf class were as
follows :
Salutatory address by W T Patton, of Rich
mond city.
Oration by L B Williams, of Orange.
Valedictory address by 8 Crutcbfield, of Spott«
sylvanla.
Major Preston, the Professor of Language*, then
addressed a few pertinent and impressive remarks
to the graduating class; after which Diplomas were
handed by the superintendent, Col Smith, to the
following cadets who composed the first class;
8 Crutcbfield of Spottsylvaola.
W T Patton of Richmond city.
L B Williams of Orange.
R Buck of Morgan.
E Bargamln of Richmond.
E C Shepherd of Jefferson.
W T Hardy of Norfolk city,
B HTodd of Nottoway.
E J Magruder of Orange.
R C Allen of Bedford.
H W Cox of Chesterfield.
E J Harvie of Amelia
J P Wilson of Cumberland.
J H Waddell of Augusta.
W Y Dupuy of Dinwiddle.
W E Fife of Kanawha.
The display made by the representatives of tha
Institute on this occatljn was highly creditable,
more so than usual, and we pre lie: for tbeta young
gentlemen, who are now about to enter upon utw
and untried duties, a career of honor, usefulness
and success.
From sooiec&us? not known to the writer, the
address before the Alumni was not delivered. Mr.'
■las. W Maasle, a talented young lawyer of this
bar, was the orator appointed.
In the evening, an Immense concoursejof peopl-t
men, women and children, white and black—indeed
the whole town seemed to have emptied Itself oa
the parade ground at the Institute to seetheeus*
tomary exhibition ol fire-works, which, by-the»by,
waa scarcely worthy of the place and the time.
But it wag somethfog to look at, If not to admire, and
served, If (or nothing else, as a prelude to the
other and more attractive item In the bill not yet
mentioned, wblch I can now only refer to. Would
that I could give you some adequate idpa of the
matchless festivities of the annual military ball.
To tell of the spacious and lnagoifioent hall, with
its gorgeous chandeliers, its frescoed walla and lofty
dome—:he array of youth ai.d beauty there assem
bled—the bright eyes and cherry cheeks and rosy
lips of the fair ones—the fantastic trippings through
the mazes of the giddy dance-the delightful music
of tbe excellent band—and not least of all, the sup
per, which was gotten up in the highest style of tb*
art—to do more thau hint at these things, time would
fail me and your patience would be wearied out;
were I to make tbe venture. Imagine then, if voo
piease, that "all tbings were done deeently and in
order," and that when the wee hoars of morning
approaohed, all retired more than satisfied with tbe
frolic-
Thus ended the anniversary celebration and the
1 "th commancement of Military Institute
—a time long to be remembered, we tru«t, with plea
surable emotions by all who took part in its festivi
ties. May each return of the day bring with it new
delights!
The ••Feast" prepared bv the ladies last evening
wsi quite sncc-sifnl, over $200 having been received.
Prof Alex. Nelson, of Waihtngton College, leads to
the altar in the icorniag one of the Lexington belles.
Tuts is but a beginning of similar enterprises in this
community. W'bose time comes next?
The crowd will soon be dispersed. Many of the
student! and cadets will be separated-Aiever from
the scenei that have greeted them here for years—
others will leave for a while, to enjsy tbe comforts
of home, or to recuperate at the health giving foun
tains, and return to act their part on the recurrence
of this short but eventfni period.

imperfect sketch then to be

SPIRIT OF THE PRESS.
The Examiner has a leader on the "week of jubi
lee," and after a review of the relative positions of
the North and South, concludes with the rt flection
that all tbe indication* at "the South promise tbe
preservation here of republican inititutions in
their pristine vigor and purity. All the indications
at the North promise the dire alternative there, of
anarchy on the one hand, or a "strong government"
ruling with a rod of iron over subjugated whites
and "free" blacks."
The Whig discusses the assertion by the Exami
ner that the American platform is stolen from Ibe
Democratic Baltimore platform. It says if it WB*
■o stolen, that fact should quiet the Democratic
fault-finders, but it contends that it was not, and
goes on to show it by citing points from the one not
contained in the other.
The Enquirer concurs with a correspondent of
the Danville Republican in calling a convention of
the Democracy of the State, and suggests Rich
mond as the place, aud next winter about the time
of Mr. Wise's inauguration as the time.
The American defends the American platform
from the charge of not being national because the
abolitionists withdrew. It says that if the aboli
tionists bad not withdrawn Ihe Democratic press
would have sent up the cry that the Americans
were leagued with the northern "Isms."
Pennsylvania Democratic Convention —The
Slate Democratic Convention assembled at Harris
burg, Pa., Wednesday, to nominate a candldxte for
Canal Commissioner, at which the Hon. J. Glancey
Jones presided.
On the third ballot, Arnold Plummer, ot Venan

The committee on resolutions made a minority
and a majority report. The majority report avoid
ed the jury (liquor) law and Nebraska. The n«l
--nority report took decided grounds on both these
exciting subject*. A motion to substitute the mi
nority for the majority report, was negatived—ayes
19, nays 69. A motion to amend the majority re
poit by inserting the minority Nebraska resolution
was lost by a vole of 46 to 50.
The majority report was then adopted, as also
an additional resolution against negroes voting.
Fatal Explosion in Waihinoton —Oq the
Fourth of July la Washington wblle the U. 8. Ar~
tillery were tiring the usual salute, four boys found
one of the bag* of powder on the ground and
amused themselves by firing of portion* of It at a

fully burning all the boy*—one of them, »ou of Mr.
