The semi-weekly Republican. (St. Francisville, La.) 1872-1872, 1872-04-12

An explosion Of a singular nature
occurred in an old we'll in Baltimore,
the other day. The well hal not
been in use for many years, and
through the lower portion of it one
Of the sewerage pipes passed The
explosion is supposed to have been
caused by the great impurity Of the
atmosphere in the we'll, ignited prob
ably by match being thrown into
the opening. The force Of the ex-
plosion was so great as to throw up
portions of the iron pipe and frag-
ments of earth, and the bricks in the
yard were torn up and the fencing
blown to pieces. A Asecond explosion
followed the. first enc, but with not
such force Fortunately no person
was injured.-Er.

Louisiana Politics.

We copy the following from tho
Vicksburg Times:
Gov. Warmoth has returned from
his Northern trip, and VIC understand
is highly elated with tho result o
that part Of his visit that related to
politics. Warmoth is undoubtedly
one Of the shrewdest, boldest and
most determined politicians of his
aSse ia tbs county, and is altogether
too sagacious to be outgeneraled by
the opposition in Louisiana. It is
understood that the Warmoth
and Pinchback party are to call
Republican State Convention on the
second Of May. and it is said that the
Governor does not object to Pack
ards presiding. President Grant has
moro sagacity than the party in Lou
'siana who claim specially to cham
pion him. He discovered that what
ever might be the merits of the breach
i'll that State, that Warnoth and his
friends could not lie ignored, and de-
string peace and the success of the
party, he encouraged a reconcilia-
ton. While Warmoth and his friends
have much to gain from an adjust
ment of differences, the Cartelites
had more to fear from their not be-
ing settled. Warmoth can undoubt-
edly carry that State in popular
election ; yet the opposition are in
sane enough to quarrel with him,
and find fault with the President for
attempting reconciliation.
Warmoth signifying his willing
ness to withdraw his opposition to
President Grant, has practically ncu-
the federal opposition to bis
administration, and made his re-
for Governor IL foregone
and makes the battle,
which ctl,c,,.-,;eo r,o,,l1 I,"sn hol., :,
severe contest, an easy victory. We
can not say that we especially admire
but we have always pre-
diced that he would come ont first
best, and there is nothing more GER
tain now.

The four thousand six hundred
inches upon the exterior Of the Cathe-
dral of Milan are now said to be all
occupied by statues. The entire
building is a trille less than five hun
dred feet long by three hundred feet
in width. rising three -hssadscd and
lifty-five feet to the top of the dome,
above which, in fine proportions, lis-
es spire in the shape Of a. obelisk.
Besides this main spire, there are
over one hundred others rising from
the editice, presenting the most gor-
geous effect. The whole is Of white
marble, and is greatly admired for
its singular lishtness Of construction.
The work was commenced upon the
structure just about five hundred
years ago, and it is pronounced to be
about complete. The interior is de-
clarel to be such a museum of splen-
dor and Of art as to defy adequate
description.
