Words FiuY Spoken.

The New Orleans Courier, in an article up.
on the Democratic Address which We publish
to-day, aud the Douglas faction which, since
the Convention and the apparent Frightening
Of the 'Squatter's" hopes, has began to show
Signs Of vitality where suspicion only pre-
ylouSly rested, concludes with the following
fifty spoken words:
The Democratic party of Louisiana.
II 1t wishes success, and with il the
recognition of its cherished principles,
should spurn from its fold every dissat-
listed demagOgue who is now seeking
10 clog the wheels Of its machinery, To
break down its organization. to impair
its efficiency, to trample under foot its
recognized usages and to destroy the
landmarks by which it has SO long been
enabled 10 steer clear of peril and dan
ger. 1t should place an indcliblc mark
upon the brOws of such men; for they
are not of us nor with us. They have
erected, we fear, an impossible barrier
between themselves and National DEM
%ocrats, and unless they at once return
10 that allegiance which they owe in
honor 10 their party, they should, with
out fear or favor, be thrust back into
their proper places. This is a duty
which devolyes upon the approaching
Baton Rouge Convention, and which we
have no doubt will be performed to the
satisfaction of the State. Our lines of
must be maintained and
kept strictly drawn, if we wish to ex-
wolves and false prophets from
ranks.

a. 5. GREGORY, the Artist.-It will be
seen by his card in another column that this
gentleman is here on a professional visit, On
his arrival, We took occasion Of a previous
acquaintance to call at his room, and must
acknowledge that We were highly pleased in
feasting our sight upon the various admirable
productions of his brush, both in landscape
and portrait. painting. II is seldom that a first
class artist visits our town-Mr. GREGoRY's
stay is limited-and our citizens should take
advantage of an opportunity which may not
occur again for a long length of time. The
public are invited to call and examine his
paintings.

hciary cadet to this institution. under
the tenth section Of the act No. 9S. pass

Importance that all cadets should enter
the class at n and the same time.

myself OF this opportunity to say that
1t will be well to advise me of the name
and address of your appointee, that !
may advise him what books to study
and what outfit to procure before com
ing here.
The appointment being made in June,
the cadet whom you select will have
time to prepare himself for admission in
November, with increased chances of
success in his class; as his appointment
has fonr years TO run, it makes no diff.
terence to him whether that period date
from this time'or November next.
The present session will terminate
about the middle Of August. Our class.
es began on the Cd day of January last.
and are so well advanced that a Young
gentleman arriving now would be una.
bic to enter on equal terms with his fell
lows, and, in truth, the professors could
not do him justice.
Your appointee should be between Is |
and q years old; should read and write.
and have a pretty good idea of arithme,

himself to fulfil our conditions of admis.
sion, in the period from the day of his
to the time suggested for
