STREET PAHEAENTs.

| The Boston authorities are engaged in az
attempt to solve the interesting and din cult
question of what is the best material for street
pavements, and their discussions not
At . meeting of the committee charged with
the Investigation, last Friday Gen. w. W.
Averill was present to advocate the Grshamits
asphalt pavement, and Gen. Q A. Gilmore of
the U. 8. Engineers to testify TO it's excellence
as demonstrated on Pennsylvania avenue in
Washington. The advantages of the asphal
street as presented by Gen. Averill are that it
is mpervious to water, indestructible by acids
ishable" This i'm perisba liability is q very valu-
able property, If it really belongs to the
Asphalt pavement. It was stated that the
Grahamite company would agree to keep it in
square yard per annum. a durability superior
to stone was claimed for it; owing to its plastic
nature horses would not slip on its surface; it
was yielding to impact and, therefore, not
liable to break; and being non conductor,
1t was protector Of water-pipes against
freezing in the winter. 1t possessed the i'm
portant advantage over stone Of being almost
noiseless, and was only slighily more expen-
sive in first cost than stone. 1t was not stated
what the first cosG 10. One member of the
committee spoke in praise of the asphalt
streets of Paris, composed Of asphaltic stones
ground up which could be ground over and
relaid with little trouble. It was admitted,
however, that in case Of king in spots, il
that is, it could not be repaired by laying
more asphalt on the sunken surface. Another
pavement proposed was the adamant, COM
posed of asphalt and broken stone, laid on to
. depth of four, six or eight inches. One
member of the committee spoke empbatioally
in favor of the wooden pavement when treated
with creosote; it could be laid for 81 square
yard, or about 822 per square of ten feet and
ceving propositions, but have not yet made a
decision.

NEW ORLEANS, SUNDAY MORNING. JULY l, 1877

Basilica of San Pietro in Vineoli, the scene
which was " crowded to go location" Car
| dinal Simeoni, whose Title the Church is,
celebrated Pontifical High Mass with great
splendor ard magnifcence, in the presence
of 100 Bishops, the AMBASSADORS of France
and Austria, and the Ministers of Portugal,
Belgium Bavaria and Brazil accredited.to
| the Holy See. and the representatives of
Russia aid Paraguay. Then more than
5000 Italian pilgrims went up to the Vati-
can, and presented their address without
reading it, as the Holy Father must have
been already much fatigued. But he
spoke to them with his usuel vigor, and
with even exceptional tenderness, telling
them of his joy at being surrounded by his
own country men, and adding that while as
Pope he blessed with all his heart the
faithful of the whole world, as an Italian
be blessed his fellow country men with the
blessing with which Jacob blessed Joseph.
After this, which was perhaps the crown
ing satisfaction to his paterDal and patri-
otto heart, Plus TX. gave no more audi
ences that day. On the following day he
received the deputation from Bologna and
8 O0O more Italian pilgrims, divided &C.
others from the Cistercians of France and
Italy, and from the dioceses of Viterbo,
Udine, Lugo, and Vigevano; from La Ro-
ebelle, andfrom Corfu.
ga wednesday Gbe holy Father gave |
audience to 700 pilgrims from Poland, who |
brought an offering of 5000 francs, and
many gifts of great value and beauty.
Their address was read by Cardinal Led
ochowski, who, as Archbishop of Gneson
and Posen, is Primate of ancient Poland,
and his Holiness replied that of all the pill
grimages of these days this was one of the
most pleasing to him, on account of the
prosecutions which the Catholics of Poland
have SO long and SO bravely endured. The
Cologne Gazette states-with what amount of
we know not--that Prince Urozoff,
the diplomatic agent accredited by Russia
to the Vatican has laid before the Cardinal
Secretary of State q statement of conces-
sioDs offered by the Russian Government
On the points in debate with the Holy See
the Church in Poland, and that
Cardinal Simeoni, accepting these conces- 1
sions, has at the same time declared that I
The Holy See will continue TO protest as
ong as the violence to which the Church
n that country is subjected still eDdures.
Nothing, in fact, which is likely 10 have
'een conceded can be in any way q com.
'ensatioD for the persecution by which the .
catholic Uniats have been forced into con. . .
ormity with Schism.

THE OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES FOES
Letter from Florida }

The enemies of the rattlesuake include
the hog, the deer, and the eagle. The hog
| thrusts his fat chops into the snakes face,
meekly receives it's bite, seizes the reptile
| by the neck, places its hoofs on it's body,
and tears IL asunder. No blood is drawn,
the poison is harmless in the fat, and the
porker gets a fair meal. A drove of hogs
will clear tie widest couutry of rattle
snakes. When buck sees RATHER, he
springs upon it like lightning, bringing HE
feet together upon its head and body, thus
cutting it to pieces, for the hOofs IF a Flor
idian deer are as hard and sharp as a razpr.
An eagle kills the snake while it is sun
ming itself. The bird descerds with the
velocity of an arrow, striking the reptile
with such force as to sever the vertebIS.
But the deadliest foe of the RATHER IL the
common black snake. He is public bene-
factor, and ought to be protected by the
State legislature, even II he does pick up
q chicken or two occasionally. He grows
very long, and, unlike his Northern COM
peer, never assails o human being. The
RATHER fears and BhunB him; and well be
may, for the black snake 10 as agile and
quick a. the handspring of . watch, and &c
full Of fight as bulldog. Meeting his an
,tagonist, he attacks without delay. After,
coiling and sounding an alarm, the Fattler
keenly watches lite assAiIaDt. At frat the
black snake slowly glides around its spiral
enemy, sS though studying ito weak points.
he frequently misses ana increases his
speed with each cycle, ever keeping an eye
on the RATHER. The latter twists is head
with every revolution Of lite asaaiIant.
Swifter sweeps the black snake around the
circle. At the full bent of his speed the
rattler grows dizzy In twinkllng IL is
caught by the throat, and the coils 0f the
two snakes are interningled. The contest
is decided by main strength. As they
writhe in the gTass the superior proves Of
the black snake is manifest. The RATHER
10 slowly stTaDgled. Sometimes its body
is AWSlioWed, bat this does not aiWays fol-
low The coach whip, a long, cloan-cut
