THE FEN LAW.

Editor Meridional?:
What about the hog law ?
Strangers came here seven years
ago and were assured again and
again that there was no law to
protect hogs running at large.
They applied to the lawyers with
no better advice.
Some went mad to town to sue
for damages to hogs, bat came as
they went. Under our late Par.
ish Judge, suit for damages was
sustained. The Police Jury then
passed a fence law, leaving the
hog unprotected in some wards.
The writer bought . large lot Of
pieux cut ready for fence, under
that law. Now az We understand
it that part leaving the hog out
was repealed and now Nj. Hog
can run at large committing dc.
predations upon those who cannot
possibly fence him out in one year.
Now some of this same fence
ready cut is to 60 up to enlarge a
field and it is not known what. to
do. The laws are not made for
the.many but the few. There is
much ground for charging upon
this theme. What is the law ? II
is in a middle.

prize. We understood the quo

the week was the arrival at the

carry off the first premium for

think that her style of architecture

the breasts Of steamboat builders,

look strongly suggestive Of the
