4 Specimen Resolution.

At a meeting of Radical Club No. ,,
Ward One, held on the lTth inst, the
followi ng resolution WAS adopted:
And that we also resolve to support
the State ticket selected by the Baton
Rouge Convention and that VIC further
think it our duty to vote u straight
Grant ticket throughout, and not vote
by two separate tickets as Gov. War
moth is trying to have done but that
we agree to vote for no man for office
who is not in favor of Grant and Wilson
for President and Vice President: and
to prevent any deception being played
upon us, ace ID he1'cd.y agree ia 0cccivt no
tickets except from tie hcttd men Of ous'
ctubs; and further, that we think it wise
and proper to g We our entire support
to whatever candidates may be chosen
by our Parish Convention on the 18th
day Of September next; though each
ward will be at liberty to recommend
their own friends of the Republican
party to the delegates of that Conven-
ton, but that we agree to submit to the
majority of votes and support those
candidates who may be nominated for
the Legislature and parish officers, SO
that our votes may not be divided, but
be as one body.
The Radical party Of Ward One has
confessed its ignorance, and its unWor-
thiucss to vote, in agreeing to esaccept''
tickets from any one. Its members do
not faltcr in proclaiming themselves
slaves still

1t is TO be hoped that the Democrats
will begin after the Convention to-day
to organize themselves in every Ward
in the Parish. After clubs are organized,
frequent meetings should be held for
consultation. Lists of every voter in
the Ward should be accurately made
out, and visiting committees appointed
to wait upon all who arc doubtful or
willing to hear. We need Il thorough
canvass of the voters, white and black,
and an active and energetic pursuit Of
our foes. Their leaders arc busy at
work, poisoning the minds of the
freedmen and organizing tilcnl into
compact bodies. Our planters have an
influence with these people they ought
to exert, and must exert, if they intend
to do their duty.

\ Whole Broadsidc mt the Kellogg Ticket.

Col. +. Il. Towne, in retiring from the
Madison Journal, INDUCES in q few
appropriate words to his patrons and
readers, and then proceeds to account
for his Withdrawal from politics, in the
following lust and eNquisitcly pungent
criticism of the X ellogg-Antoine ticket.
Coming from one of the patriarchs Of
the Republican party in this State, the
consures of the Customhouse faction by
Col. Townc, as copied below, possess a
weight and signi ficuncc not to be gain
said, and furnish proof incontestiblc of
the weakness and incongruity of the
Kellogg ticket and its supporters.
When leading Republicans openly con-
fcss thcir dissatisfaction, should we not
be encouraged to make vigorous at
tack Upon the enemy?
This is what Col. Townc Sans:
Perhaps if the party with which |
have acted for the last few years, could
have recognized that the white people
OF Louisiana, rebels though they NAV
once have been, were entitled to any
CONSIDERATION III inc government which
they pay for, ] should not have so will
ingly given up the conduct of 4 paper
which was sincerely devoted to the
Interests and success OF the National
Republican party. But Of all the citi-
zcn-ENpubllcanS Of Louisiana not one
was found worthy ola place Oh its State
ticket. Federal oiiicc-holdcrs, birds of

roW-arc 10 control the Offices of this
great state, and the men whosc loyalty
and devotion has been tried by ten
years Of obloquy, abuse anu sometimes
social OStracism can take Il back seat
and pay the bill. An organization
such az that erected by Mr.. Packard,
the gentleman from Maine, for the gov
crnment of Louisiana could not receive
the support of my time, money or vote.
To the candidate for Governor, Mr..
Kellogg, have no objection. [ believe
him to DC All honest, faithful and Capa-
bic public servant. but With all his viz
tues 1t cannot lie expected of him to

LOUISIANA STATE UNIVERSITY.

The affairs of this institution of learn
ing, properly the pride of every Louis
ianian, appear to be prospecting, under
the untiring supervision Of Col. d. +.
Boyd, in everything, save in the num-
Der of pupils in attendance. We gath
er from tue Official Register Of the ses-
sion of 1S71-72 that large and valuable
additions have been made to the Libra
~, which now embraces H. 900 vol
umcs, and is the best selection to be
found in the South. It's cabinets of
geology, zoology, botany, mincralogy,
&C., arc the most extensive in tho
Southern States; while its philosophi-
cal and chemical apparatus are ample
in extent and of Il superior order. The
course of study in tho University has
been arranged and perfected, so as to
meet the requirements Of the Door
young man, us well us the more veal
thy and ambitious, and the manner Of
imparting instruction and the regula-
tions enforced insure Il thorough ac-
quaint;,ncc with the studies taken by
y
ter of the University adds another at
traction worthy of being considered.
Thc corps Of professors arc able and
active young men, who arc devoted to
their several tasks and to giving the
University rank among the best collie
gcs in the Union.
But while all these advantages, at
fordcd at the most reasonable prices to
the cadet, arc displayed by the Uni
vcrsity, the people of the State appear
indifferent in too great a degree to the
claims the University certainly holds
upon them. Imbucd with the false
idea that the best education is to be
obtained away from home, at schools
and colleges not patronizcd by the pco-
pic in whose midst they arc conducted,
the people Of Louisiana send annually
five out of every seven youths in the
State to be educated in other States,
not simply in modern and ancient text
books, but in the provincial manners
and ideas Of those among whom they
are never to live. Thus We arc not on
ly losing the benefit of our own thrift
and economy, but iniiicting upon socie-
ty, continually, tastes and notions at
variance with those prevailing among
us. Hence, we sec, in almost every
undertaking of moment, conflicts of
views and contrariety Of purposes, us
ually terminating in disnppointments
and failures.
Let the young men of Louisiana be
educated in Louisiana, and learn the
lesson how to make great State, and
who arc to be tho men of nerve, talent
and industry, by mingling daily with
them on the campus and in the rccita-
ton rooms.

IMPORTANT LAND CASE ON TRIAL.-A case
Is on trial in the United States Land Office, in
this city. and will probably remain there all
winter. involving the title to over one hum
bred manifestations OF land in Alameda
County. The lands are estimated to be of the
value Of about $40 per acre, and. for the
greater part, they are covered by pre-emp-
tons. and, in many cases, the improvements
are extensive and valuable. The Western
Pacific Railroad Company is, contestant
against the aettlers, and claims by virtue OF
the acts Of Congress making donations Of
the odd numbered sections within twenty
miles Of the line Of their railroad, and which
took effect January 80, 1865, by instructions
from the Department of the General Land,
Office. The pre-emptors contend that the.
railroad company are not entitled to any Of
these lands. because they say they had been
included within the limits OF i private grant
from the Mexican Government. at the time
Of the passage Of the Acts of Congress and
at the time the reservation took effect.

already. and the trial attracts much attention.
