THE PUBLIC ROADS.

The Valley of the Teche in its
last edition says: '"The roads be-
tween here and Lafayette are in
such bad condition that the plan
ters of this section who used to
deal with Lafayette for blowing
implements ETC., are compelled
now to go to our sister town Of St
Msrtinville. Lafayette should do
something to remedy this, or she
will lose all her trade from this
section.
The above will also show to our
oSm;peopls the advantage and me-
cessity Of goods roads. Our bust
ness people as val - the planters
see that all The roads of The parish
be put in good condition, and par
ticularly the rod between Bresux

that road in good condition would
certainly bring us . trade which

ing crop, to take up that of next
year, and as it is proposed to help
and assist all the small planters to
increase their acreage Of cane, a
very large crop will be made next
year, and as a large traffic of hea-
w loads cut the roads very fast, it
might be reasonable to commence
to work on our public roads as
soon as possible.
