This pavement is concrete stone, land in squares
of any desired size, shape color The power re-
uuTed to render assunder one square inch of Port
land cement of which this stOneis made is found to
be 1852 pounds. Its superiority as compared with
bricks is shown by the fact that the former yields
only to the crushing pressure of l20 tons, while
Stafford blue brick pulverizes at fifty TONS fire clay
bricks at forty-tive and midway perfect brick at
forty eight TONS The above results were deter
mined by experiment made by General J. A. Gil
more United States army, and by some of the
hblest engineers of Europe.
This pa ement is laid 50 that the blocks can not
get ont of place, being adjusted TO the ground 80
the bearing Is equal in al parts. Neither surface
water nor grass can penetrate the seams. And as
il can be laid in small squares, expansion or con-
traction does not crack break it. Artificial
stone pavement made, with this cement for its
chief ingredient was laid on King Williams

Exchange and the platform floor of the railroad

With his traln-band of 100000 negro voters,

wood" on third or fourth term, if he de.
sires it, and neither custom nor the const,tu-
ton or laws would avail, if they stood in his
way. As Jefferson said prophetically GA this
subject: "The end will have come when the
power of removing the president every fourth
year blythe people will not be exercised, for
the reason that, even if the people are so dis
posed, they will not be permitted to exercise
it," The Jefersonian idea of what would be
the "end'' of our republican system, has been
SO nearly realized in the sham election Just
past, that third term for Grant is hardly ne
cessary to realize tperfecuy.

The reason for the small support Greeley
received IN the South is thus stated by the
Memphis (Tenn.) appeal, one of his strongest
supporters:
1t was not want of confidence in Greeley's
wisdom or integrity that begat abandonment
of his support in the south. 1t was simply
consciousness OF Grants strength. Many be-
lieved that security and freedom from wrong
consisted in adhesion to the supreme power Of
the land.
And those who thus acted will in return re-
ceive contempt of the powers that be, as we
are tempted to say they deserve to-
