 Washington, D. C., Jan. 13, 1855. DEAR JoHNsoN:-Having given you sy- nopsis of the main points in the exploration of the Fort Smith route, I shall proceed briefly to notice the others, beginning with
 The Texas Route.
 This route was explored by Capt. Pope from Preston, Texas, to Dona Ana on the Rio Grande, and by Lieut.. Parke from Dona Ana to the Pimas villages on the Gila.
 Capt. Pope makes the distance from Dona Ana to Preston 639 miles, and from thence to Fulton on Red River 779 miles, and estimates the cost of this portion of the road (being AIS miles) at 4O,OO0OOO dollars, or about 28,OOO dollars per mile In making these estimates he says he has preferred to err on the side of ex- cess, and the amount will cover "every possible contingency which may arise under proper man. agement."
 He says the following are the advantages pre- sented by this route, viz:
 1st. That easy grades can be obtained along the whole route.
 2d. That the cost of construction is reasona- ble.

THE FLAG.

Fling out the nations stripes and stars,
The glorious standard of the free,
The banner borne through freedoms wars.
The hallowed gem of liberty.
On mountain top, in valley deep,
Wherever dwell the free and brave.
Ger graves where freedoms martyrs sleep,
Columbiais flag must freely wave
Raise high the bright suspicious flag,
From every height and lowry glen,
In forest dell, m jutting crag,
Afar among the hearts of men.
The sparkling banner widely flung,
Shall wave DER land and sea:
And freedoms anthem sweetly sung,
Shall swell our country's jubileel
Oh! let the world that flag behold
, The emblem of the brave and free:
The brightest crown of Streaming gold
That decks the Goddess Liberty.
Spread out its folds till heavens dome,
Reverberates the holy sound,
That all oppressed have found home,
On freedoms consecrated ground.
Fling out our country's banner wide.
Our emblematic starry gem,
Our UNION NEVER SHALL DIVIDE.
While floats that siIken diadem.
Year after year the brilliant stars
Shall indicate the strength of all;
Let all beware of civil wars, E
That curse of monarchs-freedom s fall.

NEW ORLEANS, 1March oh, 1855.

In the sumuner of 1858, | used partly the Cold
spring Friedrich, partly the English aud Pitts
burg, in constructing a bagasse burniHg-f furnace on
myFairview plantation in the parish ofSt. Charles.
In the following year. asst l made some altera-
spring and partly the English Brick. This furnace
during the two grinding seasons was subject to
intense heat uninterruptedly for some four months
each year, and / found that the Coldspring Bricks
had borne ii quite as well as the Englisi, and far
better than the littsburg.
