Police Jury IF this parish, Civ
ing notice, that there is a "va-
cancy in the list Of beneficiary
cadets from the parish OF Bos-
sier," and requesting "the Hon
orable body over which he pre-
sides to fill said vacancy, as
early as practicable, 10 accord
ance with law" Supt. d. f.
Boyd sBys, "the institution has
heretofore furnished the Bene-
ficiary with everything neces-
sary for his education and
maintenance, except clothing;
but on account Of the heavy
depreciation in State warrants,
in which the fees are paid, the
Board of Supervisors has di-
rected, that each Beneficiary
Cadet hereafter pay one hun
dred dollars per annum in cur
rency, in addition to What the
State pays for him lin warranty
payable half Sept. 1st, balance
Feb. LIST. Otherwise the Ben
efciary Cadets will not be re-
ceived."
There is also a deposit of fifty
dollars to be made on account
'of uniform, PAYABLE half in ad-
vance and the balance five
months afterwards.
1.-The Beneficiary Cadet will
also be required to deposit ten
dollars in advance to cover
special damages, breakages,
&c"
at will also be required
hereafter that each Cadet fur
nish himself with an overcoat.''
We are at some loss to I'M
derstand BY what authority tue
Board of Supervisors can re-
quire of a Cadet, that which
the Legislature does nos.
The amount required of the
Cadet, in addition to what the
State pays in warrants for him,
is almost enough to educate him,
at the best schools in the land.
These acquisitions on the Cadet
is wholly at variance with the
idea of beneficeuce on the part
of the State. Our idea had al
ways been, that the State in
tended the large donations,
which she had made to "The
Louisiana State Seminary of
Learning and Military Acade-
N.Y." now the Louisiana State
University" for the INDECENT
youths of the State--that this
bounty was not to be diverted
to any other use. Indeed that
portion of said donation from
the Federal Government was
made on that cypress condition,
but the effects Of the wretched
administration CT State affairs
has been felt in educational
circles, and this sacred fund
been prostituted to party uses.

pervisors ofsaid Institution has
