TENDER SOLICITUDE,

| It is passing strange. The solicitud. fei
by the Herald for the inyiclability Of Oh
constitution and laws OF the United
States. IN order that no suspicion OF dis
loyalty may attach TO the citizens Of Louis
lana, our sincere aeighbos converts twenty
five or thirty Louisiana militia into az
| army, and the little, old. steruwheei rive,
steamer Ozark into navy. With this
.orce and with this formidable hotilla,
sent out under command of United States
deputy marshals. Governor Kellogg has.
| in some strange and unaccountable man.
! her. been guilty of tone of the most law.
less and unconstitutional acts ever perpe.
treted within the State under the law"
The Herald does not pause in its rhetor.
ical fight TO tel! US how lawless act
could be perpetrated ''undey the law"
nor whether the riots of 1866. the attacks
on the police stations last March. or the
subsequent massacre at Colfax took place
under the law or not, nor whether the act
of sending force of armed men by law.
full authority to execute warrants for per.
sons charged with the highest crime
known to civilized society, transcends
that Of cruelty assassinating several hun
dred citizens who were not charged with
crime at all. Our difficulty in the matter
is that we are unable to see how a crime
can be committed under the law at all.
nor upon what ground wholesale and in.
discriminate murder can be made to rank
as lesser ohense than an attempt on the
part Of legally appointed officers to en-.
force the laws Of the State. # the GOV.
ernor Of State may not employ the mill
tia within his own jurisdiction without
violating the constitution of the United
States. what are we to do with ga well
regulated militia, which the same con.
stitution declares to be essential to the
preservation OF free people:
1t will be ample time TO set up a de.
fence for any violation OF the laws of the !
United States when complaint is made BIZ |
some one authorized to speak for tina.
power. And as both the State and ma.
,ional governments have been acting in |
Derfec: accord. both intent in the pursuit |
of felony. perhaps the Herald ought 10 |
include both in its sweeping accusation |
The position of our neighbor is some
hing like that OF the average lunatic.
Who imAgines ali the world is crazy Ga.
,ept himself and immediate companions. |
5ut the world can not be made to agree /
With either.

A new street pavement has been tried in
San Francisco. 1t is called "hydrocarbol-
tied brick" and is made of bricks OF a soft,
porous nature which are boiled in coal tar,
which renders them tough, and nearly as
hard as granite A road bed is made by
dwelling the sand, and packing it with
water. A layer of prepared brick is then
laid tiatwise, each brick being dipped in
boiling tar as it is pat down. This is over
laid by q second course of prepared brick
placed close together edgewise, each brick
dipped as before. The interstices are then
Glled with boiling tar, and the whole Gov
cred with thin layer of screened gravel.
The cost is about thirtyFix Or thirtyseven
cents per square foot.

NOMINATION OF HON. GEORGE L. SMITH

NOMINATION OF HON. GEORGE L. SMITH.
There are many circumstances attend
ing the nomination Of this gentleman as
the Republican candidate for Congress in
the election which is to take place on the
twenty-fourth instant, that can not be re-.
garded other than as favorable. Promi.
nent among these is the peaceful assem-.
blage of Republican delegates from
the parishes composing the fourth con-
gressional district at time when much
excitement prevailed in many portions of
it, caused by determination of the State
government to enfore the laws by causing
the arrest of certain persons in Grant
parish charged with murder. Officers of
the law were in discharge of this duty
when the convention met at Natchitoches,
