IT IS A FACT
same

which the prolonged agitation of these
questions may have engendered. I am
not conscious of having partaken of
either. Towards the Christian Church,
in whose name and behalf these prop-
ositions have been urged, I can have
in my heart no feelings but those of
kindness and respect. Among that
brotherhood. both of the living and
the dead, there are names that I shall
never cease to cherish and to venerate.
And I am gratified to know that
among them are those whose pure
lives and stainless Christian character
all men recognize and honor. and who
deprecate the efforts now being made
as heartily as I do.

There are some singular features in
the question before us. The proposi-
tion is organic, looking to a fundamen-
tal change in the constitution and
structure of the institution which is
the subject of the controversy. and yet
the grounds upon whitli that proposi-
tion is urged are personal. and relate
to a single individual. It is but an-
other oi thcinstauces with which his-
tory is replete. in which institutions in
their nature permanent and designed
to endure for all time, are attempted
to be revolutionized in the interest of
schemes and purposes, which are per—
sonal and transitory. Strangely
enough. in the present case. the object
of this fierce and bitter war is the
founder of the noble institution from
which the leaders of this movement
would hurl him in disgrace. and has
with a self-abnegation and singlencss
of purpose almost without a parallel
devoted his life to its. upbuilding. Its
foundations are to be uprooted in or-
der that he may be destroyed. The
grand edifice is to be over-
turned, that he who erected
it may be crushed in its ruins.

There is another singular circum-
stance connected with the attitude of
those who support this measure. We
have been told again and again for the
last three months, almost every day
and every hour, in the discussions be-
fore the joint committee, in the peti—
tions that have been showered upon
us, in the lobbies and everywhere. and
in every form of utterance, until the
sentiment seemed to pervade the very
air we breathe, that Kentucky Uni—
versity was the property of the Chris-
tian Churches and that this exclusive
and propriet right of theirs was so
manifest and so indefensible that it
would be robbery to deny to them its
exercise. Whatever we may have
thought of the merits of this assump-
tion we had at least a right to suppose
that its advocates were in earnest.
And yet, strangely enough, we find
these gentlemen. with undiminished
zeal, supporting the substitute which
deprives these churches of that owner-
ship and control and gives it over to
another class of persons designated as
the donors.

I propose new to consider the
grounds upon which this claim. on be—
half of the Christian Churches, has
been asserted. and to show that it is
based upon a total misconception of
the character, the purposes and the
history of the institution. Nothing
could be more fallacious than the effort
that has been made to treat it as but
the outgrowth and expansion of Bacon
College, and thus, to determine its
character, ignoring all the other great
elements that have entered into its
composition, Bacon College is no
more Kentucky Lill\'k‘l‘fill}'ufl it now
exists than is the little streamlet,
which gushes forth amid mountain
fastnesses and impenetrable forests,
the great Mississippi, to whose vast
and sWelling volume of waters it con-
tributes. The Ohio is no more the
Allegheny than the Mononghahela. by
whose confluent currents it is formed.
The Kentucky I'nivcrsity which ex-
isted at Harrodsburg had its origin in
Bacon College. but the Kentucky Uni.
versity which is now the subject of
discussion is the result of the union of
the former with other distinct and
important interests which Were not
merged in it so as to destroy their
identity, but confederated with it up-
on terms which fully recognized their
separate individuality. lt isagreat
literary confederation, in which funds
derived from widely different sources
are brought together in a consolida-
tion which fully recognizes the dis—
tinctive character and origin of its
members and the special trusts and
interests which appertain to each.

impossibility of their entering as such
upon the direction of an educational
icnterprise, that when Mr. Bowman, in
lthe fervor of his zeal

present the claims of the enterprise
before the State meeting of his broth.
hood, he was promptly refused. And

organized, they caused to De incorpo-
rated “for its ownership and control,"
and as custodians of this great trust, a
body of men who should be permanent
and should name their successors; and
these they designated as the “Curators
of Kentucky University," and provi-
dcd that two~thirds of this body should
always be members of the Christian
Church.

Thus stood the original Kentucky
University when it came here in 1863.
and sought and secured the consolida-
tion to which I have referred. And
then were united three independent
and cocqual interests. to wit: 1st. Ken-
tucky University, as then existing
with an endowment of about 8200.-
000. 2d. the Agricultural College, with
a fund of about $105,000, and lid, Tran»
sylvania I'niversity, with an endow-
ment and property estimated at $105,-
000. To these were added, as a con-
dition. withoutwhich tho consolida-
tion could not take effect, the sub.
scription of $100,000 for the purchase
of a farm and erection of the necessary
buildings and improvements to carry
on the operations of an Agricultural
and Mechanical College, and this sub-
scription, which was promptly made,
principally by citizens of Fayette
county, was supplemented by addi-
tional subscriptions to the endowment
fund of nearly $100,000 more, and all
made with reference to the consolida-
tion and in aid of the institution to be
formed by this union.

0f each of these interests thus
blended, and of their relations to the
institution formed by their union.I
propose new to speak. The Govern-
ment of the United States, having in
view the educational interests of the
whole people, had donated to each of
the States a fund in land scrip for the
endowment of Agricultpral and Me.
chanical Colleges. It was incumbent
upon our Legislature to provide for
the appropriation of our pro rata ofthis
fund. In my place as Senator from the
district of which Bourbon was a part.
1 presented and urged a proposition
from that county, offering a bonus
amounting to about $95,000, for the
location of the institution in Paris,
and insisted that the State should
there establish a college which should
be subject to its control and free from
every sectarian influence. I have be-
fore me the Senate journal setting
forth the proposition in detail. I was
met by the proposal of Mr. Bowman,
in which he was supported by the
members of his church, and by which
a large bonus was ofiered and accom-
panied with the most distinct and em-
phatic protestations, and in which
those who supported him all united.
that, the institution thus to be taken
under their auspices should be equally
free from sectarian and denominational
influence. IIis proposition was ac,
cepted, and the act establishing the
Agricultural and Mechanical College
of Kentucky as one of the colleges of
Kentucky l'niversity was phased. It
is provided in section th that in the
appointment of professors and in-
structors, and in its general manage.
,ment, “no partiality or preference
Ishall be shown to one sector religious
denomination over another, nor shall
anything sectarian be taught therein."
By section 8th it was provided that
the act should not take effect until
'l‘ransylvania liniversity should be
consolidated with Kentucky l'niver-
sity, nor “until the Curators of the

of the act, and
.m rltgrfwr,”

At the same session an act was
passed "to consolidate Kentucky lini-
versity and Transylvania University,"
by which the Curators of
institution were upon the formal con-
sent of both parties being given, ih‘
vested with the rights and powers of
the Trustees of Transylvania, and to

from the late Col. Morrison, the insti.

University. Historic and venerable,
her name is honored wherever science
has a vetary. Successive generations
of her sons, in the triumphs and glo»
ries of the field and the forum, have
illustrated the fame of their alma ma-
ter. Passing successively under the
control of men of different religions
sects, the institution never subordina-
ted itself to either, nor subverted or
violated those great trusts which
marked its origin and under
which the narrowncss of sec-
tarianism in its administration
was impossible. Such was the
institution which the consolidated
University adopted, and with its pur-
poses. its spirit, and its 'trusts un~
changed and unimpaired, made part of
itself. '

I come now lastly to consider
the remaining element which entered
into and completed the consolidated
structure. I allude to the subscriptions
made subsequently to these consolida-
tions, and the larger portion of‘ which
were necessary to meet the condition
upon which, by its terms, the compact
of union was made to depend. And
I confidently invite the attention of
every lawyer who hears me to the
character and legal effect of the trust
thus created. A trust implies a donor
who creates it, a trustee who is to ad-
minister it and a rush/i «pie trust or
bencfitnary for whose use it is given.
The donor had originally the absolute

means. He might carve out of it
whatever interests in others he might
choose to create, whether legal or
equitable, retaining the residuum of
interestin himself. He might, by a
declaration of trust, make another
person the beneficiary or give irrcv.
ocably to a. class of persons who might
bring themselves within its reach,
the benefits of the charity provided
and reserve to himself‘tho administra
tion of the fund in aid of the purpose
to which he might have dedicated it.
Or he might, by an act equally irrev-
ocable and complete. give over its ad—

were bound, to which I have adverted,
and all of which were then part of the
constitution of the institution to
which these donations were given.
Nor yet can it be gathered from the
3d section of the charter of the orig-
inal Kentucky University, in which
its purpose is declared to be “to pro.
mote the cause of education in all its
branches, and extend the sphere of
science and Christian morality." And
it cannot be found, although it has
been sought. in the section which

Christian Churci section, which
is only descriptive, of the persons
who are to administer the trust, can
not. without manifest violation of the
clear import of language, be tortured
so as to be made to define the objects
of the trust. A charity might be
created of which the administrators
might all be required to be Christians.
and the objects and beneficiaries might
all be heathen. Thefcundation of this
alleged ownership is nowhere to be
found in the charter. The Trustees
are the Curators, and the visitor/71v
trusts are the youth of the land. who
may avail themselves of the advan-
tages of the institution, and bring
themselves within reach of its noble
benefactions. It is precisely as if each
donor had said in seine formal instru-
ment:

"1 give dollars to A, B, C, kc,
now the Board of Curators of Ken-
tucky University, and to such other
persons as they may from time to
time select to fill vacancies in said
board, to have Mold the same
in trust, that they shall forever
use the proceeds thereof in pro
mating the cause of education in all
its branches, and extending the sphere
of science and Christian morality
through the instrumentality of the in-
stitution formed by the consolidation
of Kentucky University as itiormally
existed with Transylvania University
and the Agricultural College, and sub.
jeet to all the trusts accepted in said
consolidation.” Such was the trust
created b' t use donations, and We
have new J 0 t’turb it} A court
of equity ay interpO‘ to uphold
and enforce the trust, but no legisla-
tive body can rightly interfere to sub.
vert or destroy it.

Let us suppose that Mr. Bowman
had come in 150.3 to the Kentucky
Legislature, and to the Trustees of
Transylvania, and to the individuals
from whom he asked donations, and
said: “We have an institution be»
longing to the Christian Churches,
with an endowment of $200,000, and
we purpose that you shall unite with
it your funds amounting to over half a
million of dollar'sTth‘afyour five hun-
dred thousand shallbe swallowed up by
our two hundred thousand,and that it
shall become the property of the Chris
tian Churches, and be administered in

convention of delegates they may se-
lect." Does any man doubt that one
might have counted on his fingers all
the votes such a proposition would
have received? A proposition thus ar.
rogant and monstrous would have been
repelled with the indignation it Would
have deserved. And yet this which
no man would have dared then to
ask, is now iinpcriously demanded.
()u the co.iti‘ary Afr. Bowman and his
friends came saying to us, if not in
words, at least by the fair import of
his proposition: “We have an institu-
tion built tip mainly by our Christian

brotherhood, and iii the management
of which they have secured by char

tcr for members of our churches a
preponderating influence. We have
not succeeded in procuring such an en—
dowmcn‘ as w: l ‘ioped, and we
now pro nose til In our rcsources
with yet :muLbuJi.‘ .tt grcat l'nifi
versity for the whoe people from
whom your funds have been derived,
and which shall be controlled upon
broad and libcral principles and care

hilly preserve and carry out the great
and unsectarian trusts to which they
are subject.” Such was the spiritol’
the proposition which eventuated in
the union that was formed. The lie.
gent and the Curators have observed
it faithfully to the letter. And their
fidelity in the execution of this great
. trust is “the sum and substance of
their offending."

in the schools with the whites
they are proposing to commit the
destinies of this lfnivcrsity to the
control of a convention of delegates
from all the. Christian Churches in
Kentucky, in which assemblage the
most potent members, because repre-
senting the largest constituencies,
would be the colored representatives
of the colored churchcs of Lexington,
Louisville and Covington.

I come now, lastly, to speak of the
amendment offered by the gentleman
from Covington, (Afr. Scales) by which
it is proposed to sever the Agricultural
College front the l'nivcrsity, by the
withdrawal by the State of the endow-
ment given in aid of it by thefleneral
(loverninent. What is to be done with
it when set adrift does not anywhere
appear in the proposition, Whether
it shall be permitted to lapse or re-
vort or to be made to seek some
other resting place, must be left for
some future Legislature to doterinine.
But the significant feature of the prop-
osition is, that while it withdraws the
endowment fund, it leaves behind, and
to be surrendered to sectarian control
and in the interest of a different insti-
tution from that for which it was de-
signed, the splendid estate at Ashland
and Woodlands, purchased by the sub»
scriptions of eitizeiis of Fayette c0un«
ty. of every sect and party, as an ex—
perimental farm for the Agricultural
College. N0 proposition can be plain-
cr than that this property is an ap-
pendage of the Agricultural College
and inseparable from it. The condi
tion of its consolidation with Ken-
tucky University as set forth in the
act was thata hundred thousand dollars
should be raised for this purpose. The
appeal made by Mr. Bowman was
promptly responded to, and the money
was given for the purpose distinctly
announced and understood by all of
carrying out and meeting this condi-
tion. The object to which the fund
should be directed thus declared in the
act under which the subscription was
made, entered into and controlled the
donations made to carry out. The fund
was wisely e- pended for the object for
which alone it was given. A noble

etate was pu chased, embracing four
ii lidrcd .....i WHY “NW

land in Ainev ica, running up almost
into the hon ‘t of the city of Lexing— '
ten. No f cr 0r litter spot could
have been ch ”50“ 011 the globe. Its
soil of inexhausti. l Lfcrrtllity; its green
meadows anti its grand old forests
combined to charm, with all the fas-
einations of rural life, the young stu
dent about to be inducted into the in-
telligent pursuit of the noblest of
avocations. Nature and art had vied
with each other in its embellishment.
It had been the home of the farmer

dominion over and control of his theirinterest, under the direction of a stormy (lomllCtH 0f the lUFum. It was

fit and wise that amid the inspiration
of these hallowed scenes and associa.
tions the youth of the land, should be
led forward in imitation of his noble
character and in imitation of his iiii—
mortal fame.

And it is proposed now that this
noble estate shall be diverted from the
purpose to which the people of hay
ette devoted it, and turned ovt-r to the
proprietary ownership and control of
the Christian Church, in aid of a sec-
tarian institution.

Mr. Spcakcr. I will dctain the House

trusts that are sacred and iiiviolablc,
