Sunday Law Observance.

The new turn which affairs are
said to have taken with regard to
the observance of tho Sunday law
in New Orleans has also come to
pass here. Learning of some fla
grant violations Of the law that at,
fected seriously tho quiet and good
order that SHOULD be observed OF"
the day of rest, our efficient sheriff,
J. II. C'ack, took occasio" to give
notice that ho would enforce the
law to the very letter.
His warning took effect, as every
store was Dramatically closed, back
door and front, on Sunday last.
The sheriff has taken a step Which
will be generally approved, and
has done it in such ~ way, as
to give fair warning to all and
thus work u hardship on none.
Laws should be obeyed. And
wholesome public sentiment shonl'
not only incline to their observance
but should earnestly support thu
officials in the discharge of Their
duty. IN. the present case the i'm
martial citizen will warmly applan'
the sIerif's course, while all will al
nit That a..rigid enforcement OF th''
salutary law will not only insure
quiet and good order j" the town
on Sunday, but will, Ivy 'emov'"

kills."

The Stars of West Felicana we're to

claimed they were short four players on
account Of mfavorable weather. Rather
than mar the pleasure Of spectators, four

BRICK SIDE WALKS.

The municipal council of st.
Frrncisvi]le has, in our opinion,
come to - wise decision in planning
to begin tho laying of brick pave
meuts on the streets of the town.
Though the change from plank side
walks to those OF brick must rcccS-
sarily be very gradual owing to the
greater cost Of the latter, and the
limited funds at tho command OF
the municipal authorities; yet when
the threelold durability OF a brick
walk is considered it affords only
another instance OF the saying that
"the best is the cheapest" The
council calculate that ut least five
blocks of brick can he laid, each
year, and it this policy he continued
patiently from year to year, that IN
the course Of a comparatively short
time the town will he provided with
substantial, clearly and durable side
walks. It has been suggested to al
tcruate trom up town TO down tow"
in laying the brick, SO that neither
quarter can complain tl'at*the other
has been uuduly favored by the
town fathers.
But as the street, from Mrs.
a1orgun's corner seems to nred. I'M
mediate attention, it has been re-
solved to begin from that point,
and work towards up town, till the
nresent allotment OF brick is con
sumed.
There has been some opposition Il
"bricking" the town, principally
from II feeling that only a small por
tjon of the town at ~ time eau hope
ITO benefit from the Improvement
but as the walk is.ftee to all, onn
