ty of Now York , at half past nlno
'clock this morning to go through a mod-
cal examination to toit tholr physical fit *
osa for the West 1'olnt and Annapolis' '
ppointmonta from tbo tenth congrcsiion *
1 district. Those pronounced qualified
7 the medical board will bo allowed to
itar tlio ontranca examinations to bo
old at the satuo hour and place on Sat-
rday next , and the two pawing with the
Iglioat credits Trill receive the appoint
ments ,
Each congressional district and torrito-
r , n alaD the District of Columbia , are
ititlod to ono cadet each in the military
cadomy at West Point and the naval
cadomy at Annapolis. Ten others are
ppolntod at largo. These appointments ,
xcopt those at largo , nro made by the
ocrctoryof war at tbo request of tlio rep-
isontntlvo or delegate In congress from
10 district and territory , and the
oraon so appointed mast bo an actual
caldont of the district or territory fiom
vhlch the appointment is made. All ap-
ointments are required by law to be
made ono year hi advance of the date of
dmlsalon , except in ciaoe of vacancy by
cath or by other canec , whoa a vacancy
may bo filled in tlruo for the next annual
xamlnation. Should the congressman
ave reason to doubt the success of his
uniinoo In pisilng the entrance oxaml-
atlona , ho may appoint a legally quali-
ed alternate , who will socaro the va-
aucy In the event of his own aucioea nnd
bo failure of the regular nominee to pass
iio prescribed examinations. The niter-
ate , like the nominee , should bo dosig-
ntod as nearly eno year In advance of
bo date of admission as practicable.
On receiving his appointment the
andidato is ordered to report at
Vest Point to the superintendent of the
llitnry academy In tlmo for oxnmtna-
lon by the academic board at Its Juno
meeting , unless for good rcnjons another
Imo Is designated. The academic ex-
minatlon , however , ii preceded by a
Igld physicist examination by a board , of
xperlonced army surgeons. This ordeal
uccessfully passed , the candidate Is at
nca admitted to the academy -without
etnruing homo. In the January follow-
ng ho Is subjected to another academical
ixamlnation , and if successful ho re-
eivcs a warrant as cadet , and is required
o sign articles binding himself to servo
ho United States eight years from the
ate of admission unless sooner dle-
hargad.

, ho elementary English branches , Inclnd-
ng the history tf the United States ,
Bach cadet Is required to take an oath of
allegiance to the national government.
Ability to pajs the entrance examination
n the English branches implies about
, ho same grade of tcliolarahip as is re
quired to aecare the preliminary certifi
cate cf the regents of the university In
his otate. Tno academic year begins on
lie 1st of September and continues to
, ho lit of June. After the January el
iminations snch cadets as have been
'onnd proficient in their studios and
lave been correct In tholr conduct arn
_ lven the particular standing In their
class t3 which tholr morlti entitle them ,
; vhllo those fsund deficient are discharged
'rom the academy unless the board oth
erwise recommend. Prom the close oi
the examinations In Juno to the end of
August the cadets live in camp engaged
n military duties and in receiving prac
tical military instructions Save
' 11 extreme cases , cadeti are al
lowed but ono leave of absence during
: ho four years course , each leave usually
jelng granted at the end of the first two
pears' course of study. The pay of a
: adot commences with his admission to
: ho academy , and Is fixed at $450 per an
num. No cadet la permitted to receive
money or any other supplies from hit
parents , or any other porsonwhomspovor
without the sanction of the snporinten
dent.

pattern and are sold to the cadets at reg
ular pricer. The academy authorities
recommend all parents or guardians tc

noney than Is sufficient to defray hit
travelling expanses , and to send to the
"Treasurer United States Military Aca
demy" a sum sufficient for his necoaaarj
oxponstB until ho Is ad
mitted and for his first outfit ol
uniform. The candidate's expenses foi
board , lights , etc. , after ho has reported
and prior to admission trill be about $5 n
week , and immediately after being ad
mitted to the inititutlon ho muit bo pro
vided with an outfit costing about $90 ,
Aiter receiving a regular degree from the
academic board upon the completion ol
his course , the cadet Is conslderdd
Among the candidates for a commis
sion in the corps of engineers , the ordi
nance department , the artillery , cavalrj
or infantry , according to the duties he
may be judged competent to perform.
As the law now stands only such nnmbei
of the graduates of the academy in nnj
ono year shall bo entitled to appointment
as second lieutenants in the army as arc
rovulred to fill vacancies of that gr dc
existing on the first day of July in each
year ; those entitled to such appoint
monis to slid vacancies are determined bj
the academic board on the basis of theli
standing In the graduating class.

tional qualifications for admission to thi
naval academy at Annapolis are equally
a.s rigorous as those at West Point. Ant
simultaneous with his atUInmen
of the rank of cadet tin
candidate signs articles binding him
self to eight years' service In the navy
including bis term in the academy. Thi
pay of the naval cadet is ( lightly smalle
than that at West Point , being but $501

K00ND MINDS AND SOUND BODIES ,
The ago required for admission is less
ban that atV eat Point ; a cadet at the
imo of his entrance must bo batwecn
ourtoon and eighteen years of ago ,
Vftor a short preliminary course the
oung cadet can choose for himself
rhothor he will pursue the seamanship
r the engineering branch of the system.
f ho takes the latter , the subsequent
tudlos trill embrace mechanics , gunnery ,
onstrnctlon , torpedoes , dynamics , marine
ngino construction and government nnd
utveylng. At the termination of his
our yoarj' courjo the student Is gradn-
ted as a cadet engineer. If ho prefers
0 study for the position of a naval officer ,
Is course begins with the study of
tiooroticnl toamtnshtp , rigging nnd build-
ng , marine evolutions , astronomy and
meteorology , the laws of storms , chorals-
ry , combustion and physics. Particular
ttontlon Is given to tlio study of
ovornmcnt and international maiino
aw , nnd constant'instruction is given in
tie laws of blockades , contrabands , prize
nd bounty laws , the protection of cltl-
ana abroad , the rights of vessels In for-
Ign harbors , cts. A thorough courao In
lodcrn languages Is also purauod.
Although tbo regular routine is foi-
owed wltn military precision from rovolllo
t G n. m. until taps at 10 p. m. , the stu-
'onts very seldom complain of overwork ,
'hero is plenty of sailing and the boat
lub of the academy holds a regatta In
uno of each year. Frequent dancing
ccsptious are held during the winter ,
ud at several periods during the past
ow years the aoiderny ba o ball club has
eon the crack nine of Maryland. Every
umnier the students in the higher classes
re sent to sea on n fortnight's prac-
ice cruise , the three sloops-of-war , Con-
tellatlon , Dale end Mayflower , being
ommijsionod ty the navy department
or this purpose. The boys are thus
1 veil a taste of aea life by a cruijo to
Newport or Boston and bick.
WHEN ESTAIILISHED.
The academy nt West Point was cs-
nbllshod by nn act of congress pa'sad In
802 , under which act it was at once com
menced , but on a scale very far inferior
o which it has since become. The naval
cadomy at Annapolis was cot created
until a much later date and owes its es-
abllshmcnt to George Bansroft , the his-
nrian , who became secretary of
, ho navy March 10 , 1845. When both
he schools at West Point nnd Annapolis
are full they each contain as many cidots
as there arc senators and representatives
, nd territorial delegates in congress plus
en cadets at largo "for each thirty-eight
states. It will thus ba seen that with
.he . payment of the $500 or more annual
cnlary to each cadet that the expense of
maintaining theao military and naval ca-
abllehments is not small. Except in
; lmo of war it Is utterly impossible to
ind public employment for all those grad
uated by the schools a fact which will
icconnt for the great number of West
Point and Annapolis cadets who are en
gaged in civil employments.
BLISS IS BLISSFUL ,
Ho Finds Quantity ot His Stolen
Goods Hidden. In His Own ,
Collar ,
A few weeks ago Bliss' millinery oa-
abllabment was entered by burglars , and
about $200 of goods taken away. Nt
cine baa been obtained , and the hunt hat
aeon about given up. ' 'Saturday night ir
cleaning up the etoro , a scrub brual :
dropood down the back stairway , and lc
jolng down to look for it , behind the
stairway , Mr. Bliss aaw a bit of veiling
sticking out , nnd following this up IK
found that there was qulto a lot of stolor
goods there stored away , about $50 ir
all The supposition is that at the tltai
of the burglary the fellows had more
goods than they could tko away at one
trip , and they tucked those nnder the
stairway as they went out with the first
lot , intending to como back after them ,
but no opportunity afterwada presentee
Itself , and the goods wcro consequently
loft there. The find was naturally verj
ratifying to Mr. Bliss.

THE PROSPERITY OF ZION.
Rev , Dr. McOrrnrj's Sermon t tlio
Alotlioillst Cliuroli Yc tcrtliij- ,
"Tlio Lord God of your fathers make yon n
thousand times ns many more M yo nro ,
nnd bless you ns ho hath promised you. "
Dent. 1,11.
These words constitute a small portion of
the addrois delivered by Moses , the man of
God , to the Hebrew people shortly before his
death , and their entrance Into the land of
promise , and they nro Indicative of the
deep solicitude nnd concern which ho
felt for the advancement nnd increase
nnd proinerlty of tlio children
of Israel. During his long life ha had been
especially devoted to their interests ; ho bad
labored tor them ; ho had borne great burdens
for them ; ho had mode many sacrifices In
their behalf , These generous blessings betoken -
token the greatness of ills soul. This concern
for the welfare and advancement of God's
church that was still to remain among the
ranks of the living , while ho himself was to
bo transferred to the church triumphant in
God'o eternal homo.
No ono can bo n true Christian and not
hayo something of this spirit , and not have n
great zenl for the church of God. for the ad
vancement of its Interest ! , and Its continued
prosperity and.suecesB. liut wo all know that
deiiro for success is ono thing , and the enter
prise that begets success is quite another
thing. It would bo an easy thing for you
business men to go to your offices to-morrow
morning nnd sit down nnd desire that you
may have a largo business during the week ,
but you know If that deslro is made fruitful ,
you cannot simply sit in your office and wish
nnd desire , but iimko use of llio moans that
God has endowed you with , and unless you
do that your business will go to rack nnd
ruin ,
So it is with us regarding the church , \Vo
would bo glad to eeo the prosperity of God's
church and often oiproas our wishes nnd de
sires to that ( fleet , but If they are fuhilled ,
wo must fulfill the conditlon'.thnt Godwins or'
dainod for that purpose. To-day the church
needs spiritual power for Its advancement In
proporily. The evils surrounding It must bo
overcome , Wo ECO them ou every hand.
Look how that giant cyil. intemperance , In
spite of nil the labors of the church nnd of
moral men outside of the church that are
combined against It still striding omvnrd , and
having for its supporters hundreds nnd thous
ands of men , who with brazen effrontery
oppoto every effort mn-lo to Biipprosj
it. This is ono of the greatest evils that prevents -
vents tlio progress of the church. It cannot bo
vorcomo by moral reform alone.Vo must
nvomoro spiritual power as well as more
cgal power to counteract the onward march
: this great evil.
Another great evil that stands in the way
F the progress of the church is Infidelity ,
ook over every Christian land and see how
lit hydra-headed monster is lifting up its
ead everywhere , nnd turning the ri lnp gen-
ration nwny from the church , from God , and
rom righteousness. Look how many of our
oung men nre loosing their faith In the
ord of God ; how many close the blblo nnd
irn nway _ from it to read
IB doctrines of Infidel tench-
rs. It in coming np into the very doors of
ur churches , and the future lives of our fcons
ud daughters are in imminent danger. Wo
nust arise and meet thin dire foe , and we can-
ot meet it unless the church has this spiritual
orce.
It is no time for the church to cry peace ,
pace , when there is no penco. When the
ice of intemperance is working against it 1
I'hoa upon the public platform infidel men
ro trampling the church nud throwing down
,3doctrines in the very face of ( Jod's people.
Vo inuat meet them. Wo nuiat go forth like
) avid nnd be able to overcome the combined
orces of evil that nra coming up around us
veiywhoro and seeking to destroy our pros-
ority.
If wo want to see the prosperity of God's
hurch wo have got to open our eyes. There
s eomethlng to bo done ; something that no
lower can do. save the power of God only
, nd with that the church mint be filled In
irder to meet and overcome these insidious
ivlls. If the church wishes and desires pros-
> erlty , it must be attained through something
nore than old creeds that wore good thous
ands of years ago. We mutt waken up and
cry unto God forsplrltual pentecost to quicken
nen In the enlightening power of God , mak-
ng them warriors for God and his cause.
liut then , in addition to being a spiritual
> ewer , the church must ho a social power.
Han la pre-eminently a social being. You
will find this to be true In societies , in com
munities and iu states , Christianity is pre
eminently a social religion. It was so counted
ly its founder , one of the most social men of
he times , People who came in he scorned
iot. He entered into the bouse of Zaccheus
; ho publican and there taught him the glory
of the kingdom of God and of its spiritual
Eta sat with Nicodemus , one of the learned
men of the heathen people , by night ,
and taught him the truth. One means of his
> ewer was the social gripe that he held on all
ilasses of people. The church only becomes
, he power it ought to be when it utilizes its
locial power for the well being of its mem-
lernhlp and community ,
It is not enough to have the church social
on a certain day In the woek. liut a church
social Is just as much n means of grnce prop
erly conducted as n prayer mooting or clam
meeting. It is juet as good for us to attend a
church social with thorlght purpose in view and
carry out that purpose us. it is to go to church
> n Sunday and listen to a sermor. But this
B not the rent social power of the church.
The real social power of the church Is only
iroperlyutilirod when every individual being
, hat comes into the church of Go j is met with
; he hand of fellowship and greeting of cor-
dialiiy enabling them to realize that they nre
ecogni od PS members of the Christian fain-
ly , with no reference to their social or finan-
c nl standing. Some of the churches in our
and are regular fee houses. If a stranger
ihances to como in and take his place , so lit-
; lo notice Is taken of him that ho goes away
at the first opportunity , snjiog : "I
am not wanted. No person meets
mo with the hand of fellowship. My friends ,
no church In the universe can become the
lower that it ought to be , unless it becomes a
social ( ii well na a spiritual' power , The
church that is spiritual nnd not social may do
a great deal of good ; the church that is social
and not spiritual can never accomplith Its
work ; but the church that is both spiritual
and social will never lack of success in any
community or in any place where it may bu
'ound.
People say , "Well , if I associata with them
nnd make them my equal , I may compromise
ny social standing " If your social standing
, s so easily compromised , It Is not worth hav.
ng. You aratoba pitied if you have nc
moro social stability in yourself than that
which will enable you to afford to roach oul
, ho hand of fellowship to tba humblest per
soa. .
Lot us be buiy incur work for God's churcl
.hut the prayer of our hearts and tbe desire
of our minds may ha realized , in beholding ui
a thousand times as many moro as we are ,
and that we may bo blessed us has beet
iromised.
