EZRA CORNELL.

We do have q hard time with our public |
trusts. There was the Brooklyn bridge. |
There stood at the head of that enterprise
Mr.. Roebling, distinguished engineer.
But while he, as it has seemed, performed
his duties satisfactorily, there was sort of
fifth wheel called superintendent, and up
to date the towers of the bridge have cost
more than the estimates for the entire
structure
Then we had a grand patriotic commits
sion to represent the honor and dignity of
the United States at Vienna. They ped
died out rights to keep restaurants, and did
other little meanncsses for which Gen. Van
Buren, and his tribe have been called home
in disgrace.
But when we came to real benevolepcc
and the education of the rising generation,
we had reason to expect that everything
must go squarely. and honestly. Mr.. Nc
CURE has made speech in the New York
Assembly, charging that Ezra Cornell
killed ever so many birds with one stone
in that matter. He gave the land to the
University on which it was built, got his
name made immortal by attaching it to the
University, and made great sums of money
out of the opportunity for a speculation
connected herewith.
The history of the matter as stated by
Mr.. Mcclure will be useful for its general
information, if the particular charges
should not be sustained That history in
substance is that in 1862 Congress donated
to the several states quantities of land
thirteen thousand acres for each Senator
and representative to which each State was
entitled. While this gave to Vermont Co.,
900 acres, which land was invested in
United States bonds for the support Of her
agricultural college, New York was not so
honestly served, if we may believe Mr. Me
CURE. New York's share was 800, 900
acres. The state legislature accepted the
grant, agreeing in the act of acceptance to
invest the money, according to the terms of
the act in stocks of the United States or
of some state, and to keep the principal
inviolatc forever In 1865, the legislature
of New York created the Cornell Uniyer-
sity upon condition that Mr. Cornell should
pay to the Gcncsce College $4,000, and
furnish certificate that Cornell Uniyer-
sity had fund of $500, 900. This certif-
cate was obtained from the treasurer of the
University upon the filing of a bond for that
amount payable in ten years, secured by
S750,000 of Western Union stock. Upon
the treasurer's certificate the whole fund of
nearly a million acres of land was turned
over to Mr.; Cornell, without his having in.
vested dollar of money except the $685.,
600 paid to the Genesee College, and thu
next legislature returned that to him.
Seven years have passed, and all the
State has to show for the land is persona
bond of Mr.. Cornell for 100000, ant
some Buffalo bonds, state stocks, and 9th
err property amounting to few hundred
dollars over four hundred thousand or 81,
hundred thousand dollars Which of thes,
latter sums is not entirely clear from Mr.
McGuires manner of statement.
These facts or pretended facts were STATED
by Mr. Mcclure in speech opposing bill

Many people. perhaps most PEOPLE,
live in the estimation of others. 1t is the
air they breathe, the god they worship. In
that is bound up all their hopes and fears.
James A. Coo, of Boston, who is charged
with forging and uttcring certificates OF
railroad stock, desired by that means to i'm
prove his responsibility in the estimation
of his neighbors. When the exposure of his
errors came, nervous prostration cnsucd,
and he had to be supported by the officers
on his way to the court room. The Dis
trict Attorney stated that the forgcries
amounted to between S150,000 and $500
