THE SCHOOL BOARD ILLEGAL.

Among other reasons why the present
School Board for the city should Immediately
resign, is the fact that most of them hold the
office in contravention Of Article III of the
Constitution, which is as follows:
"No person shall hold or exercise at the
same time more than one Office of trust or
profit, except that of justice of the peace or
notary public.
There is no ambiguity about that article; it
is perfectly plain and stamps the board as
illegal and its acts as null and void before the
law.
board who are7debarred by the Constitution
from sitting thereon:
P. B. S. Pinckback j. Senator (claimant).
J. B. Gaudet &C.. Police Commissioner.
j. A. Massicot (c.) State Senator.
A. T. Dumont (c), State Senator.
L. B. Stamps (c.), State Senator
v E. Mccarthy (c.), Clerk in Staes' Court.
james Longstreet, Major General Militia
and Levee Commissioner.
H. G. Dibble, Assistant Attorney General.
B. L. Lynch, Judge OF Fourth Court and
soda water.
1t is difficult to see how upon this showing
the State Superintendent can fail to demand
the designations of the above parties. He
must do it or stand in the position of kno "
ingly permitting the violation of the State
constitution, which he has taken an oath to
support We insist that the Superintendent
can not escape from the dilemma except by
asking for the resignation Of those members
referred to, or by declaring their Offices
vacant.
We shall see whether the Constitution can
be ignored as to one provision and rigidly
enforced as to another as may suit the whim
or fancy of the Superintendent.

THE SUNDAY DELTA.

With its issue of September 26th the Sum
day Delta begins under new auspices. 1t is
now published under the general supervision
of committee consisting of Democrats, and
under the immediate business management
of VIM. Woelper, Esq. 1t will be continued
as Q weekly until suitable arrangements are
made for publishing daily issue.
We extend to the Delta cordial welcome to
the field of useful labor on which it enters,
and in behalf of all who seek the overthrow
of the Radical dynasty we wish the committee
and manager an ample success.
The Delta gracefully salutes its readers and
confreres as follows:
LET Us BE UNITED.
The present management, with this issue,
send greetings to their fellow-citizens through
out the State. They will find us co-laborers
with them in the work of delivering Louisiana
from the grasp of the robbers and usurpers
who have SO long oppressed her. Our desire,
above all things, is to see the citizens OF our
State united in this glorious work. We want
no close communion, no chques, no caba!s.
We want to see but one test of admission to
the counsels and labors of the Democratic
party, and that is sincere, disinterested devo-
ton to the constitution of our common coun-
try. and to the interests of our State.
We desire no contention, no strife, no bit
terness, among the anti Radicals ofLouisiana.
We want no rivalry, except that generous
emulation as to VINO can best work and best
agree for our mother State We bury out of
sight all issues that have divided u.s. 1t is
not our intention to attack the Wheeler ad-
justment so far as it undertakes to fix the
status of the House Of Representatives. We
deny that it compromises in the slightest de-
gree, or that its friends sought to compromise,
the claims of the McEnery government,
elected in 1872, and we call upon all to unite
in the demand which we make upon the Ma
tional Congress for the recognition of that
lawfully chosen government.
To our confreres, the noble and liberty
loving press of Louisiana. in this city and IN
the country, we extend greetings of the kind
LEST nature. Their patriotic labors in the
cause of our State cannot be over-estimated.
While differences of opinion are inevitable,
even among those who, with equally patriotic
motives, desire the same result, yet we hope
these differences as to the best mode of attain
ing success will be discussed respectfully, dis
passionately and as becomes patriots, whose
sole motive is the welfare and glory of COM
mon country. We believe with this patriotic
impulse actuating US all, that midwinter will
witness the usurpation forever overthrown,
and Louisiana free and happy under the gov
eminent of her choice.

J the .doration Of Saints or the prerogatives

TO the alteration Of Saints or the prerogatives
Of the Pope.
Much has been said Of the Bourbonism Of
the Democracy, but this attempt to galvanize
the ashes of the Wing party is the most won
derful example of immobility that has ever
been presented in the political history of any
people, The Bourboninm of Democrats con-
sists in . firm devotion and adherence to
principles which constitute the essential
foundation of all free and just government;
but that now under consideration is merely
an attempt to separate men who, if they diff
fer at all, do so on some 81 eculative historical
questions, while they coincide as to every
practical issue of tie day. And this is to be
done in order that the common enemy of both
may perpetuate the rule of ignorance, cor
ruption and vice; that the Legislative halls
may continue an open auction mart in which
rings Of evil disposed men may purchase the
right to Cypress their fellows; and that the
once sacred portals of justice may open only
at the magic touch of the bride.

MENT OF OUR SCHOOLS.
Apropos OF the present general dissatisfac-
ton in reference to our School Board and its
manner of conducting educational affairs in
this State, We publish the following extract
from report made to the Convention of the
Patrons of Husbandry. held at Greensburg,
Tuesday, Sept. IA, 1875. 1t will be found to
be an emphatic endorsement of the entire
disapproval by our citizens which will find
decided utterance at the mass meeting to be
held tomorrow night:
REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON EDUCATION.
Your committee TO whom was referred the
question OF education, beg leave to report as
follows:
We are aware that education is one of the
cardinal points OF the organization of the
Patrons of Husbandry, and yet are sorry to
say, because we believe it is true, that in
various sections of our country it receives too
little attention from our Order as well as from
citizens at large, and while we believe we'll
ordered school system is the glory and pride
of State, yet we believe that the way it has
been conducted in this State for the last eight
years is rather shame and disgrace, and has
been an injury to the cause of education
rather than a benefit, because the moneys
appropriated therefor have, in many
instances, been squandered by ignorant
and INSCRIPTIONS adventures, and the pub
lie school system as conducted has only
tended to destroy private schools of known
excellence without supplying any correspond
ing benefit and we believe there is an error
in the whole system as adopted in our State.
We believe that the expensive luxury of
tata nd Dicfr IN N ap iybt ba
done away with and more simple and less
expensive plan adopted Perhaps not under
the present Constitution of the State, but
under new Que, and we pledge ourselves
that as long as the present system prevails
We will use our utmost endeavors to have only
honest men on school boards and as superin-
tendents, and will hold them to strict
accountability for their actions in the prem
ises..

The amount of stock taken by private indi-
viduals in Natchitoches parish to the New
Orleans Pacific Railway has reached the sum
of S25, 600 Aud the following is the gist of
the resolution as passed by the Police Jury a
few days since: "The amount of stock taken
is 500, 900, payable in ten years; bonds to be
issued for the amount, bearing interest at the
rate of four per cent per annum." This is
much less than they anticipated, but at the
same time they are satisfied that their mem

The passengers and mails from Galveston,
due here on Friday, did not arrive until Sat
urday evening, owing to the detention by the
storm on the coast of the mail boat from Gal
weston to Brashear. The steamer Whitney, OF
the Morgan Line left Galveston on Friday
afternoon; owing to the strong northeast
wind prevailing, two hours were consumed
in getting away from the wharf, but when the
splendid ship did get her head to the wind,
she steamed down the bay in gallant sty lie,
blowing through the heavy sea- that was
running at great speed. Notwithstanding the
very strong head wind, bio wing gale, the
Whitney made the Sabine light in five and
half hours, distance of sixty miles.
At IL o'clock on Saturday, the storm con-
tinuing and the rain being so dense as to OBJ
sucre all landmarks, Capt. Hopkins deemed
it prudent to lay his ship to, where he re-
NAMED until O. clock P. NJ, when catching
q momentary glimpse of the lighthouse at the
entrance of Atchafalaya Bay, he tripped his
anchor and ran for it. But when within
twelve miles of Brashear, the wind blew furi-
ously and Egyptian darkness prevailed. The
Whitney again came to anchor, and could not
90 up to Brashear until o'clock Sunday
morning. During the storm this steamer
proved herself an excellent sea boat;
she is as strong and staunch as iron and the
skill of man can make her. Her engines are
OF extraordinary power; she is easy and COM
Portable in sea way, while in all her appoint
ments and accommodations she, as can be
said Of all of Mr.. Morgan's ships, can not be
surpassed in Northern or Southern waters.
Capt Hopkins possesses all the qualifications
Of o good commander; is skillful, prudent
and watchful, and treats his passengers with
politeness and consideration. Purser Davis
is prince Of good fellow, and Chief En-
gineer Shaw and Steward Lewis are the right
men in the right places.

One of the remarkable men of the Alabama

One Of the remarkable men of the Alabama
Constitutional Convention is Col. Bethea. He
is a lawyer, but has had only one case IN his
life. 1t was his Il rst and his last. The case
involved large amount of property, and his
fee depended upon his success. He won; his
fee was S60,000 and with this he grscefully
retired from the bar. A legsl career so brief
and so brilliant has probably been the lot OF
no other man since litigation began.
