The daily Argus., 1875-01-04
Tht 9ailg Ateas,

1t would afford an interesting chapter of
rascality if an account of all the frauds
which have been perpetrated 10 the trans
actions connected with the sale of public
lands appropriated to the different States
for the endowment of agricultural colleges,
and the disposition of the receipts there
from, should be brought together in con
nected narrative. We have, at various
times, published some interesting particu-
lars of the way in which the proceeds of
agricultural college lands have been diver
ted into the pockets of ardent supporters
of Grant's Administration and in the
New Orleans Bulletin we find some infor-
nation regarding the disposition which
has been made OF Louisiana's share in the
general grab of public lands under the
pretence of aiding the agricultural inter-
ests of the country. Louisiana received
2O9, ,920 acres of land, the scrip for which
in 1871 or 1879 fell into the hands of a
board of commissioners composed of the
virtuous Warmoth, Chief Justice Ludeling,
who has just been pronounced sWinder
by the United States Supreme Court, and
John Lynch, who subsequently acquired
distinction as an active member of what
was called the Lynch Returning Board,
that being the celebrated body which
counted in Kellogg as Governor without
having any returns to count. The board
on March /, 1873, reported that the scrip
had been sold at 81 cents per acre but
gave no information regarding the location
of the lands, nor did they deign to say
who were the purchasers at that very
moderate price. Lands appropriated to
New York under the same act brought as
much as FIVE dollars an acre. The money
realized by the sale of scrip amounting Z,
81, $50, after deducting certain expenses,
was invested in Louisiana bonds; but
here, again, the board failed to explain
the price they paid for these securities, or
to say who they bought them from.
Those who know the peculiarities of Lou
isiana radical politicians may be excused
tor suspecting that the board may have
purchased deprecated securities belong
ing to themselves, and charged the State
| a handsome sum for their trouble. At
the time OF the report in 1873 there were
on hand securities nominaily representing
$2US.590. Since then these bonds have
been funded and 10 their place new bonds
obtained to the amount Of Sl97. 800, which
might sell to-day for about $50. 900 cash.
1t should be understood, however, that
the Agricultural College has been estab-
lished in the mean time, and is now in
operation 1t is located in room at the
corner of Common and Barrone streets,
in New Orleans, There is grass plot of
nearly an acre attached to the building in
which the college has its habitation, but
as that belongs to the Medical Institute
and the agricultural students are not al
lowed upon it, practical agriculture is not
carried on there to any great extent.
There is a full corps of professors, however,
and students to the number Of fifty, in,
Guiding youths from twelve to fifteen
years, some of whom can spell words of
two syllables without winking. while 9TH
ers haye even advanced so far as to be
able to do sums in long division.
