EDUCATION IN LoUIsIANA.-The Point Coupee
Democrat, of May %, in giving a long history of
the efforts in behalf of education in State for
the past fity-sx years. and the difficulties and fail
ures, closes with the following relative to Dolbcars
Commercial College, ofNew Orleans:
What the State has been for years endeavoring
to establish at the expense ofhundreds of thousands
of dollars yainly layished, has been within few
years past effected by the enterprise of one indi-
yidnal. ] allude to Dolbears Commercial College,
which is now Incorporated, with full powers to add
an agricultural and mechancle department so that
students map receive not only classical but SCI
entGc education, to fit them directly for those I'M.
portant pursuits in life. The gentlemen associated
with AIR. Dolbear as trustees are all men OF well
known character and merit. The institution is the
only one of the kind so far as known that has ever
been chartered in the United States, whore special
scientific instruction is given to fit all who intend
to engage in commerce, agriculture and the me-
chahic arts .This college has already educated
senie two thousand young men,. who are NOW ac'
lively employed in this and other Southern cities
and 1t is hoped that our merchants, mechanics and
planters will give proper encouragement to an in
stitution devoted entirely to. their interests.

Napoleon, during the action of salferino

escaping with his life.
We imagine that if both his epaulettes
had been shot off by the same ball it
would have changed the aspect Of Euro

A Field of Blood.


The highest figure given in the French
official report of the killed at the bloody
butchery Of Salferno is eighteen thousand,
The French seek to under-rate their losses
and have undoubtedly fallen short of the
true number killed by some thousands.
But if we take twenty thousand as the
number and allow an equal loss only on
the party of the Austrians, the result is
horriic Two thousand hogsheads would
scarcely hold the blood shed on that field
in the course Of few hours. Laid closely
side by side along a road, those forty
thousand bodies would extend more than
fifteen miles. Thrown into one heap the
mass would contain about one hundred
and sixty thousand cubic feet of mangled
human flesh. But still the imperial gam
blers will play out their bloody game.

NEW TROUBLES IN SOUTH KANSAS.

From Our Special Correspondent
LAWRENCE, X. T., Feb. IA, 1859.
learn from Bourbon County that the posse tina.
has been gathering at Fort Scott for some time
made raid on the valley of the Little Usage, and
plundered the settlers there, under pretense OF
hunting for stolen property. They robbed the
house of Capt Balm of every article Of clothing
worth luhi.s except half blanket they left with
his wife. Others Jared the same way. There was
a very strong determination among those on the
Usage not to preserve the peace any longer They
sent up after cannon and reGnforcements, and
iDteud ~ coed to Fort Scott Messengers have
been sent dOwnto revent fighting, and 10 dispense
the posse. The posse had upward of twenty pris
oners in chains at Fort Scott. These were TO be
set at liberty at once. The general amnesty act
for the Southern country, passed just before the
Legislature adjourned, WILL Of course, cover this
last yillsnOus foray. / think it i. likely that the
parties had been informed there would be some
such movement and made a dash when they did,
knowing they could DO it securely. The bulk of
the members of the Legislature voted for the am
nesty bill in good faith, thinking it the only means
of securing peace for that district lt was merely
carrying out the Denver treaty. The Governor
did not pocket 1t, SO his signature made it a law.
We learn that the Dogs have made an escape from
the Platte County jail. The old man was recap
tured but the son escaped The trial of old boy
will take place in a week or two; should anything
beial him, there will likely be some lynchng in
Kansas, and should any of the officials concerned
be hereafter caught in Kansas, wo be to them.
At last accounts Brown, with his negroes were
safe in Iowa. l presume the latter may be in
Canada ere this time. As for the former-wel,
we shall see.
The legislators have all gone home. There are
serious fears that the defeat of the bill providing for
township elections and county elections in March
(Which was pocketed by the Goyernor) will cause
great deal Of trouble. The question as to whether
the people wanted Constitution or not was to
have been submitted at that election, under the
Convention bill. The Governor signed the Con-
vention act after keeping it back long enough to
have defeated it if he had wished.

POLITICAL.

John c. Ten Eyck Of Mount Holly, N. j., is
spoken of as the man most likely to succeed the Hon.
William Wright in the United States Senate.
The report Of Mr.. Milee recommending re noval
of the desks from the Representave Hall, is generally
approved, ard will likely be adopted. Among the
advantages Of this reform would be very decided
improvement in the character Of Congressional
speeches. Members now relieve Themselves from dali
and prosy speeches by resorting to etter-whtiug
reading; anything, in fact, which viii them from
the irHiction of listening. If they compelled to
listen, they would speedily adopt the EOglish metcod
Of suppesspg speakers who address the House simply
to get to their constituents ears to make parade
of Themselves with superior noise. Another advan-
tsge would be the Encouragement of the seats bring
ing members within more compact, where
every one could tftinctly hear what said. This
would tend TO better under standing Of the business
before the HouFe, and conduce to better order for
there would be no necessity for the memoe to scream
themselves hoarse in order to be heard to catch the
Speaker eye 70 obtain the floor.
The "Wpgs" of Monroe County, Tennessee, in
their recent meeting TO appoint Delegates to the Know
Nothing State Convention, nouinsted the Hon. John
Bell for the Presidency. The Eashrte Union insists
that he shall 6st the chances Of canvass for the
