And furt her that thirty thousand dollars
Of the fund were paid over for the said
property, though the act of Congress
declares in language as plain as can be
used that ''the capital of the fund shall RE
''MAIE FOREVER UNDIMINIsgED-
To show still further the intention of
Congress and the meaning of the act, we
will quote from the 9Th section as fol-
lows:
End No portion of said fund, nor the
interest thereon, shall be applied directly
or indirectly under any prete,lce 1chateUer
TO THE PURCHASE, ERECTION, PREsER-
WALTON OR REPAIR OF ANY BUILDING
OR BUILDINGS.
And yet in the face of this unqualified
condition of the grant, the agents of the
State without any power of attorney
from the Legislature, laid violent hands
on thirty thousand dollars" and appro-
priated the amount as above set forth
thus not only perverting the $4,000
authorized by the act to be used for the
purchase "of lands for an experimental
''farm or farms" but large additional
portion "of the capital of the fund
which the State authorities were solemnly
instructed by Congress to hold sacred and
''toreuer undiminishedl
The facts of the case are clear as noon
day. The fund has been shamefully
Incorporated. The law of Congress
has been grossly violated. The state
has morally and legally incurred the
penalty of forfeiting the grant through
the misconduct of her agents And the
question recurs, and will be renewed
again and again, what's to be done about
Hs 1t is not to be kept out of the public
mind. A partisan majority may ex-
clude Reports from the journals setting
forth the facts of the case. But they
cannot by any sort of cunning necromancy
draw veil between the transaction and
the searching eye of the people. They
cannot cover it up; nor will it down al
their bidding.

Adelbert Ames, self-elected Senator

never paid dollars worth of taxes in the

Social Equality and ..the Mansion

Now since the RAIDS have passed a
social equality measure which applies to
hotels and other public establishments,
will they not take the Executive Mansion
in hand and regulate that institution also?
1t is emphatically the peoples property,
built with their money, and kept up by
taxes imposed on them. The public
have been RECALLED with long accounts of
receptions" there through the official
gazette, but we have no where seen it
stated that they were conducted on the
principle that all men are born free and
equal, without reference, etc. What
avails Hon. Mr.. p. Cesar Squash to arise
in his place in the Legislature and make
the halls fairly roar with his eloquence,
if he is to be debarred privileges which
are accorded to others in the Mansion"
simply on account of the color of his
skin, and that too by the highest digni-
taries of the Radical party? Is not this
an abuse which needs reforming? Let
the mansion" be regulated, and, as a
cotemporary would say, let all be tarred
with the same stick. If the RAIDS mean
business let them 60 to work on that line,
with the establishment pro-
vided by the taxpayers for the Governor.

Senate has rejected a proposition intro
duced by Senator Smythe, of Leake, to
amend the Constitution so as to secure to

The New Orleans Times states
that Governor Warmoth and his wing of
the Louisiana Republicans have adopted
the policy and programme of the Reform
or Peoples party, and of the Liberal Re
publican movement, which is to take
form at the Convention TO be held in
June at Cincinnati.
A cause of Warmoth's opposition to
the Grant party, was thus stated by him
in an interview with a Times reporter:
warmoth-I have had no intention OF
making friends with Grant since the State
Convention of last August. | believed for
a time that that he knew nothing about the
performances of his office holders here at
that Convention, but l pow believe he knew
all about it. ! am satisfied Casey. (brother-
in-law.) went to Long Branch and laid the
whole programme before him and obtained
his approval before it was carried out. In
fact it is known that Casey had il tele-
graphed from Philadelphia all over the
country; that he had come North TO fix the
Federal patronage up so as TO defeat me in
that convention. Besides. my friends tele-
graphed a protest to the President against
the use OF the custom house tor that pur-
pose. and he paid no attention to il.
At any rate. whether he knew anything
about the scheme beforehand or not. he has
known il tor the last eight months. and has
done nothing to rebuke the fools and knaves
he has in office here. Notwithstanding the
universal demand of the Democratic and
Republican press for their removal.
l know that General Grant approved OF
General Emory's course in bringing the
troops here at the request of Marshal Pack
ard, and which were expected by Packard
and his friends to intimidate the State gov
eminent, and give moral force and effect TO
the revolutionary movement inaugurated
by them. And when he found that Emo
RVS swords cut both ways, and that | was
making good use of the presence of the
troops here, ne ordered them removed to
the barracks, five miles from the city, and
treated with contempt the applications of
the Executive and Legislature for their re-
turn TO the city TO preserve the peace.
