Sale OF the Texas Central Rail Road

|
This road with all its franchises, road bed
&c.. was sold on the End. inst, and pur-
chased by Mcssrs. Hutchins and Paige
The law requires that all real estate should
be advertised twenty days before the day OF
sale, and the advertisement posted in pub
| lie places. But what is law in mere mat
| ter Of ;'moonahinc?'
The sale Of this most magnificent Central
road was quietly effected, and when an
| nounccd in Houston, there was nstonish-
mcnt and surprise even there, for but few
know anything of perhaps none but those
who wanted to purchase the thing. The
stockholders will naturally feel indignant
at being sold out, but so far as their ts-
pre,sions go, they seem to feel relieved
They say they like to see clean sweep
and nice affair made of it, by general
wipe out of all the trash that might be in
the way. But the coolest thing in the, whole
is the offer of Mr.. lIutchins toFthc Stock
holders to pay themselves back into the
concern-just Us man would expect TO
get out of mud hole by going deeper in.
The Stockholders up here say "aN right"
that another agent ought to come up and
solicit subscription and stock, and that they
have been "done for" by the company SC.
Some even venture to borrow the old clothes
OF the Southern Pacific Railroad, and call
the whole concern moonshine, swindlc and
various other ugly names that certain poo
pie used to bestow upon other railroads.
The idea of dressing up the Central in the
cast off epithets of the S. p. Il. R.! Too
bad. Our own private opinion is that the
sale of the road is the best thing that
could have been done for it. The company,
Stockholders large and small, Sc. were too
unwieldy, and the looping off of the small
branches will only make the trunk grow
but the faster. Mcssrs. Paige and Hutch
ms make a liberal offer to the public and
we hopeto see the road prosper,-and above
all let it be built to Dallas.

,cmplatcd, and men in this State have even
been so forgetnll ofall honorable emotions
rs to say they would aid in the work Of sub

THE THOROUGHBRED HORSE
KENTUCKIAN

NATlLL stand again the present season a Z

ncy, and the price for the season for mares
left with the horse, will be $40 Mares that
were bred to him last season and did not
prove in foal may he bred this season graf
is. The season will expire the 10Th July.
In Offering this horse TO the public, | do
not have to trace his pedigree through q
long list of doubtful ancestry. llissirc was
the imported horse Jordan; his dam was
the imported mare Platinn;' both being OF
the best stock of England which may DO
seen by referring to his handbiIls.
This horse has proven himself a superior
breeder, and as to appearance, think him
equal to any; but as all horses are fine on
paper, wish gentlemen to- see him and
Judge for themselves.

armed and in great numbers, at once seized

tleroy declined to surrender the Fort, as
was excepted, and while in the act OF re-
monstrating with the populace, the citizen
soldiery rushed upon the works, and in ten
minutes they were taken possession of. r..

The Texas a. New Orleans Road.

The Texas aud New Orleans road is now
complete from Houston to Beaumont with
the exception of the first six miles from
Houston, and about five miles between
Green bayou aud the san Jncinto. II II
presumed that the whole road will he COM
pletc in 20 days. The Eastern Texas rond
from Beaumont to Sabine Pass will also be
put in operation in from 80 to 30 days.
Arrangements have been made for rum
ninga line of steamers from Sabine Pass
to Bcrwicks Bay four or six times week.
Owing to the fact that both bars will have
to be crossed by day light, the time table
will have to fix so as TO admit OF passengers
cmbarking on the steamers at both places
at about sun down, the steamers arriving
n, their destination at daylight next morn
ing.
With this arrangement trains for the
present will leave here probably at L. w.,
arriving nj Sabine Pass Ut & +. NJ, and
passengers reaching New Orleans Al, say
10 \. NJ. next day. From New Orleans the
arrangements will require I'M afternoon
train, say ut p. NJ, passengers arriving
nj Sabine Pass atG \. NJ. next morning,
and in Houston at II A. NJ. The saving
over present time from New Orleans to
Houston will he nine hours and from Ilous-
ton to New Orleans about twenty hours.
This saving will turn the tide Of travel al
together over this routc.-HoHstoa Telegraph.
