From the louisiana State Register, pub
ished i'll New Orleans, we clip the follow
ing:
The congress Of the National Liberal
League, held at Rochester, New York, Oc-
t"ber 26, adopted the following platform
for the Presidential election of 1850:
|. Total separation of Church and State,
to be guaranteed by amendment of the
United States Contribution; including the
equitable taxation of church property,
secularization of the public schools, alro-
CATION of Sabiatarian laws, abolition of
chaplaincies, prohibition Of public sppro-
priations for religious purposes, and all
other measures necessary for the same gen
cral end.
2. National protection for natioual citi-
zens, in their eqnnl civil, political and re-
ligious rights; Ia be guaranteed by amend
ment of the United States Constitution,
and afforded through the United States
Courts.
3. Universal education the basis of uni
versal suffrage in this secular Republic; to
be guaranteed by amendment of the United
States Constitution, requiring every State
Ia maintsin thoroughly secufarized public
schools system, and TO permit no child
within its limits to grow up without a good
elementary education.
Mr.. Emerson Beutly, Of this city, was
selected as the member Of ths National
Liberal Executive Committee for Lonis-
lana. He will call to his assistance others
with n view to the organization of the
State, and desires to hear from all in sym.
patty with the movement, in reference 10

The following item is clipped from the
Shreveport Times Of late date:
Notwithstanding the hard rain which
fell yesterday, over one hundred feet of the
North Louisiana railroad were graded
Rain or shine, she has got to 90. We have
got the mules, scrapers, shovel< hands and
money. Look nut at the old crnss roSls
tor the engine MIR. Melvin, now engaged
in surveying the North Louisiana railroad,
informs us that he had nearly got across
the bottom. He gives highly gratifying
report Of the route surveyed, aud says the
cost Of grading through the bottom will not
be more than two-thirds Of grading the
hills beyond. The embankment will not
average three feet, while no tre~tle work at
all viii be required and but little bridging.
After getting beyond Mp. Cranes planta-
tion cross-ties on no part of the road will
have to be hauled more than half mile.
There is any quantity of water oak and
cypress suitable for ties all along the line.
The first mile of grading is being doue by
some fifteen bands, mostly lrishmen, AT
twelve cents yard. The soil is light and
sandy, and the work of grading remarkably
easy.
