What They Think.

Since we published an article rela-
tive to the completion of our railroad
to Marshall, we have had the satisfac-
ton of learning that it was not with
out its effect. Many of the citizen
stockholders Of the Road, have awak-
ened to a sense of their duty; some
sensibly remark that to have this
important work carried on. they
would not hesitate giving their inter
ests to the Texas Road. and withdraw
their claims. The motives which
prompted such expressions show an
anxiety to have the right thing done.
Those are our sentiments. If We do
feel disposed to extend the Road as
was contemplated in the beginning
let it be given to Texas. provided she
will complete it, and set the "stcam
horse" to work.
Imagine the following notice to be
found in the columns of our respective
city papers:
