progress has been made in extending the railroad
! track from both directions. Nearly 1000 miles
| of the Main Line and cenverging Branches be.
tween the Missouri River and the base Of the
Rocky Mountains have been built within three
years The CENTRAL Pacific RAILROAD has
also steadily and successfully carried the Main
fsSIhH yUt RPyb tAs StsaP l navigation OF the
into the Great Salt Lake Basin east of the Cali.
f0rniR line. Having overcome by far the most
difficult and expensive portion Of the whole
line the probabilities Of the through connection
with tho Eastern lines being effected in 1870
amount almost TO certainty.

PosAruCAL HARMONY IN TEXAS

From the Houston Telegraph. 18th inst.
While gloom and dependency over
shstow all the other Southern States, there
il light on the edge Of the horizon ofTexss
We believe il is impossiblein this State to
establish mongrel government similar TO
those now being established in the other
Southern States. One reason for this opih.
ion is, the great unanimity OF the Cons
seryative people of the State. There are
no dissensions among them. A common
instinct pervaaes their ranks, and they
agree upon united course of action with
a promptitude never before known in 80
new a State.
Another resson for the hopeful view We
take of the future Of Texas il, the readi-
ness with which secessionists and original
Unionists now harmonic upon Conserva-
tive basis for the salvation OF the country.
There il az this moment perfect accord Of
feeling between these classes. The dele
gates elected from Harris county 90 the
convention, which is TO meet tomorrow IN
this city, is composed Unfortunately OF
original Unionists and ex-Coniederates.
And We have good reason 10 believe that
come Of the leaders OF the Republican party,
in Texas, sneh as Gov. Pease, Judge
Hamilton, and Judge Bell, while not
changing their party relations or wishing
Conservatives to change, are on much
more friendly relations with the CoBserFs-
tive people Of the State than ever before.
We have been made aware of several
friendly interviews between them and lead
ing Conservatives, it which it hiss been
agreed on both sides that they should culti-
vate the most friendly relations, while not
requiring any sacrifice Of political opinion
or position on either side. Il has been
mutually suggested and mutuglly agreed,
that all bitterness Of language and feeling
should cease, and that both sides, ia their
respective spheres, should labor for good
government and prosperity in the State,
and that wherever they see an opportunity
its hsrmonize for the common good, they
should do 90.
