The asphalt, when well laid, has a smooth, even surface and is comparatively noiseless, but it is hard on horses and when wet Is very .slippery. Senator Lane has observed the metn ode of laying asphalt here. He de clares that he has seen no pavements with more .than one and a half to two Inches of asnhalt. whereas it ought to be four Inches or more in thickness to give a good wearing surface.
