A MAGNIFICENT PROJECT-The pros
pect of the independence of Texas has already
given rise in New Orleans TO "A splendid design.
which, if carried out, will create quite new era
in the history OF a part OF the commerce of this
country. 1t Is well known that steamboat, of 5OO
600 tons burlhen can ascend the Red RIVER as
high rs Natchez-and il is now proposed, in New
Orleans paper. thai rail road shall be constructed
from that point ,lro' gorge in the Southern Rock,
Mountains, and theace 10 the Gulf of California.
Such a work would give to New Orleans acccS,
10 the East Indian, Peruvian and Gillian trades
which wosld enable her Ia set competition AT def
ance. Ii appears 10 us however, that il is not By
the Red River, bui by the Rio Grande that this
communication must be effected, if at all. Thi,
last river has course estimated at from 1900 10
100 miles in extent, and can be asccndrd b,
steamboats, of light burthen nearly seven lnn lred
miles, which will be within an uncomfortable dis
lance Of the Colorado of the West, river tia,

bic that portage rail road connecting these two
