response, exercised a prompt and
judicious selection in thesappoint-

With the eminent qualifications
OF the gentlemen OF the legal trater-
nifty on>tnis Board the reader is. so
familiar as to need no reference to
them here. Rev. c. II. Thompson,
D. D., Of Straight University, is. q
gentleman Of considerable culture
and experience. He has already
occupied equally honorable posi-
tions in some of the Northern Col
leges where he has displayed those
qualities which entitle him to dis
tinguished consideration among his
fellows. Of the last named gentle
man, we copy the remarks made by
our contemporary Of the New Or
leans Republican:
We congratulate our talented young
confrere, William G. Brown, Esq, upon
his appointment by Governor Pinchback
as an administrator of the University of
Louisiana. As editor of the L~ou1s1AN1AN,
MI. Brown has manifested marked ability,
and he will bring to the discharge Of his
new duties not only this, but integrity Of
purpose and sound discretion.

THE CUSTOM HOUSE STATE
CONVENTION.

Wltnout the least disposition tc
criticise uafairly the action of the
late Convention whose sessions have
just closed in this city, it is but rea-
sonable and just to all concerned
that we should speak plainly and
impartialv of the action of the Con-
vention so far as relates to the all
absorbing question Of harmony
within our ranks as a party.
If the Republican party of the
State can succeed at oil in the COM
ing Presidential canvass it must be
through the. united effort of every
brapch>of said party. There must
be NO divisions in our ranks. W.
have looked earnestly and hopefully
for the hour to arrive when such a
union of all the elements of our par
ty might reasonably and honorably
be brought about. =.
The convention which has just
adjourned, for many reasons, was
well suited to the imitation and al
most completion Of such a work Of
harmony and reunion OF all confic-
ting elements within the party.
Fu'&-The Convention was held
a most suspicious moment for
the initiation of such q movement,
from the fact that two other impor-
tant conventions Of. the party must
in the course of a very few
weeks, and whatever steps might
have been taken in the interval
could have received the most care
full and critical scrutiny of the peo-
pie themselves and Of their repre-
prior to and at the time
when the two subsequent conven-
shall assemble.
We own that we rejoiced to hear
Of a disposition which manifested
itself in the following debate and
resolutions at an early hour after
permanent organization of the
Convention:
Mr.. Jos. H. Wilson spoke in favor Of
Cancellation and harmony within
he party. He said that he believed no
'ne would deny the purity and honesty of
lis motives, %(applacsel, and he was now
or extending to the opposition the right
,and Of fellowship, and if We do not con-
tont them boldly they will overrun us
ike a whirlwind. The party must be
Mr.. Wilson; at the conclusion of
us remarks, offered the following resolu-
,.-. ...:'.
Resolved, That q committee of seven be
appointed by the President to devise and
ubmit to this Convention some practical
of adjusting the differences that
xist in the Republican party, SO as to
ecure harmony incur councils and unity
q our ranks. ST. Ii
MI. Ladd said he was there to harmo-
lize. (Applause.) Many Of those who
followed Warmoth were as true Re-
ublicanstasany present (Applause.) He

, sit there until it was done. He agreed
substantially with Mr.. Wilson, but would

MI. Packardis speech seemed to satisfy
the entire convention, apd when he had
finished the following resolution, which
had previously been offered by Hon. W.
F. Lean, Of Algiers, was unanimously
adopted amid repeated cheers:
Resolved, That the members Of this

Smut i'm Wheat.

VIM. A. Woodbridge, of Flaywoods,
Cal, writes to the Farm Journal as fol-
lows: II see in the April number of
the journal an article on smut in wheat,
also "a remedy. Now, we raioe any
amount of wheat in this country, but
never have it smutty. But we blue
stone it, as it is called here. Take box
or trough about ten feet long by two
wi1e, and two deep; put in about 500
pounds of wheat; then take pail put
in it about one pound of blue vitriol; fill
with hot water, and let stand until the
stone is dissolved; then pour on TO the
wheat and mix we'll until the wheat is
well dampened with the solution; then
take it out in sacks and let stand until
dry before sowing. The farmers here
all bluestone their wheat, and are never
troubled with smut"

GuanO Prospects.

The Augusta (Ga) Chronicle says the
reports of large deposits of guano on the
coast of Peru are said to have been ex-
aggerated. The stock in the Chincha
Islands is almost exhausted. The stock
Of guano Of good quality on the Gu
anape, MacaDi and Lobos Islands does
not exceed one million tons, and is of
very inferior quality in the Lobos Islands.
Another. million tons is the outside
quantity. In the South the only deposit
Of a7v consideration is on Pabellon de
Plea, and this does not amount to half
a million tons. The same quantity Of
guano which remains on the Balestas
Islands is of an inferior quality. Should
no new deposits be discovered the pres
ent stocks will not last more than four
va0rs
