J. Henri Burch, the gentleman from
Boston, who enlisted colored soldiers
in New York to fill up Massachusetts, regi-
ments, and who was subsequently expelled
from the Legislature in this city, became
violent, the telegraph says, in the Grant
convention yesterday, and took the lead
in beating w. Pitt Kellogg. As both Of
these gentlemen part their hair as they do
their names-in the middle-the necessity
for bottle-holders was not agitated in the
convention. A little expulsion is the only
thing that viii help Burch.

POLITICAL CHARACTERISTICS.

The Times, in very interesting article,
institutes comparison between the Sage
Of Monticello and the Cincinnati nominee
for the Presidency. There is no attempt
to disguise the eccentricities of character
in either, but singular condolences and
remarkable circumstances abound in their
lives. 1t would be hard to make an old
school Democrat believe that Jefferson
had any fault-the eccentricity he dis
played was wisdom, revealed in a promi-
nent and peculiar garb. Very much the
same opinion will hereafter be maintained
Of the Philosopher of Chappaqua.
Both became candidates for President
on the heels of revolution. Both were
radical in their ideas, and entertained,
upon most political questions opinions
which took no hue or color from public
sentiment. Mr. jefferson believed in a
strict construction Of the constitution, and
a total abstinence from the exercise Of
doubtful powers in government Amid
the crude and imperfect theories Of re-
publican institutions, his great mind and
powerful reasoning shaped policy which
was grated upon the government, and
which the lapse of years and successive
wars have scarcely been able to weaken
or destroy.
Mr.. Greeley may be regarded as the

A HOT PLACE.

The weather and politics are conspiring
just at this time to make Baton Rouge a
hot place. We can sincerely sympathize
with the good citizens thereof, who are
condemned for the time being to undergo
the tortures of ga hell upon earth" and
wish them a speedy deliverance from the
noise and confusion of the two political
conventions that have made their town the
arena of very warm political contest.
New Orleans but recently passed through
like infection, and knows exactly how it
is herself Two conventions, a vast deal
of angry talk, and no beneficial result.

Texas, they must implicitly follow the
wishes Of our merchants in this matter of
shipping. and at the same time reduce fac
forage, insurance and other charges.
The crops along Red river are in com
paratively fine condition, though not en-
tirely recovered from past unfavorable
weather. The area in cotton, corn and
sugar is about the same as last year. The
solution Of the labor system has been set
tied in the Red river valley, but we fear
that the fall elections win completely de-
moralize and disOrganize it.

We get large amount Of international
law from the telegraph Office. Every
operator is Vattel or a Pufendorf and
every newspaper is his record Of juris-
consular outgivings. For instance, a
canoe was fired upon on the Rio Grande
river, day or two since, by the Mexican
authorities, compelled to land, and its in
mates were arrested for violating mill
tary order. The telegraph operator at
Matamoras, who was one of the parties in
the boat, at once informs us by telegraph
that this was a violation of international
law, as the Mexicans never had pretended
to exercise police surveillance over the
waters of the Rio Grande. If this were
good law, or a correct statement, we might
proceed at once to kick up a muss with
our neighbors, but as it is neither law
nor reliable relation, we advise the ex-
citable public to pass it over as they had
to pass over thousand other extra judicial
announcements from the same quarter.
Mexico has exercised both military and
police surveillance over the Rio Grande
river, and she is authorized to do so by
virtue of the treaty Of Guadaloupe Hidalgo.
Telegraph companies do not pay such
salaries as to justify the employment of
capable lawyers as operators.

Forney says that the Democrats viii

He has been transported to Texas until

Texans should see to it that he does not

The morning following the freshet at
Wilton, Massachusetts, celebrated tenn

Bainbridge Wadleigh, who has been nomi-

legislative caucus to succeed Mr.. Patterson
in the United States Senate, is described as
a young man Of fine abilities, has had con-

claimed by his friends as being fully capable
Of succeeding Mr.. Patterson. He is a ma
tive Of Bradford, about forty-one years old,
and is the best lawyer in HillsborO county,
where he has practioed since 1850. He is a

GEORGE F. BROTT, Managing Agent.


This pavement is concrete stone, laId in squares
of any desired size shape or color. The power re-
quired to render assunder one square inch Of Port
land cement Of which this stOne1s 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 l2O tons, While
Stafford blue brick puyerzes at fifty tons, hre clay
bricks at fOrty-fve 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
ablest engineers of Europe.
This pavement is laid SO that the blocks can not
get out of place, being adjusted 70 the ground so
the bearing is equal IL al parts. Neither surface
water nor grass can penetrate the seams. And as
it can be laid in small squares, expansion or CON
traction does not crack OF break it. Artificial
stone pavement made, with this cement for its
chief ingredient, laid King Williams

Exchange and the platform floor OF the railroad

There is nothing like enterprise. The
New York Times sent faithful corps Of
correspondents over all the States, from
Maine to Texas, from Florida TO Oregon,
and these men counted every voter in the
country, and ascertained precisely how he
intended to vote. This enabled it to say
that twenty-five States will go for Grant.
AS a supplement to this job, it next sent
another corps Of reporters all over New
York, who took a precise census of every
voter in the commonwealth, and what their
political opinions were to be in November.
This enables the Times to say to dot
just what Grants majority is to be in the
next election in the very State we expect
to count for Greeley. Such enterprise and
accuracy as this forestalls fate, and is very
trying, sinces it leaves us nothing to do
but to quietly wait for the yerifcation.
We don't like to be cheated out of our
summer excitement in this way. A white
hat, number seven and three-eighths, is
for sale after only one days wear. We
shall wait for the Times next time.

Judge Leonard set the amiable Mr.. Kel-

made one threat too many, and the result
was an explosion that knocked the dirt
from under its favorite. The probabilities
are that William Pitts friends are not
sorry, as his death and burial will leave
the way clear for some smaller sprout to
mature into a gubernatorial candidate It
used to be the case in Mexico that when
one President was headed off all the Gen
erals in the country claimed the vacancy.
Kellogg may imagine how many people
are waiting for him to break his neck.
