The Mouth OF the Brazos.

The Austin tIeXas) journal says:
The Rip Van Wrinkles Of Galveston are at
last being startled into something like life
by genuine sensation in the shape Of a
consolidated railroad project to construct
seaport at the mouth of the BrazOs, nearly
due south from Houston. This is to be
done by the combined managers of the
Houston and Great Northern, the Houston
and Texas Central, the International and
the Houston Tap and BrazOTia railroads.
whose traffic to the gulf is to be directed
over the proposed road and to the proposed
harbOr. These roads together have proba-
bly, nine-tenths of the mileage now existing
in Texas, and they would leave Galveston
only the fifty miles of railroad 10 Houston
and eighty-four miles from Harrisburg
west to Columbus. The project is entirely
feasible, and would make harbOr superior
TO any we now have on the coast OF Texas,
with eighteen feet of water at the entrance.

The significance of the Massachusetts OPP
position to General Grant Is attracting at
fention all over the country. No periodical
in New England has been more closely
identified with the best class of New Eng
land Republicans than the atlantic Monthly.
Some Of the most distinguished founders OF
the party are enrolled among its cOntrl-
butors. and it has always been in sympathy
with the most intelligent most thoughtful,
and most influential portion Of the cOmmu-
uitv When So careful and representative
publication reminds us that the President
has disappointed the expectations Of those
who supported him four years ago: that he
"bas allied himself with the very men
whose names are by-words throughout the
CountIv for those vices which he protested
his desire TO root out he has lent his warm
assistance to petty factions, warning not for
any political objects, but for the "cOntrol
of piunder;" and that she now demands
his re election on the strength Of these ser
vices 10 the country,"-it is evident that
there must be a bitter feeling OF dissatistac-
ton in the most powerful portion of the
RenubIican party. But this was to be ex-
natted How can Massachusetts help being
angry with President who has treated one
of her most distinguished sons as Grant has

LONDON, April 29.-Tbe particulars of

the greatest in the city OF Antioch, but in
the vicinity Of the city. A letter from
Antioch dated April says: 1.-The Ameri-
can Protestant Church was severely IN
jured and four of the American commu-
nifty killed, all members of the families of
missionaries. SO far the number Of persons
killed in the city Of Antioch is less than
three hundred, but it is known that six
teen hundred in the towns and country
where the shocks were a. severe, if not
greater than here, were killed, though this
number may be increased. The distress of
the people will be only temporary, as the
crop prospects are good, and the supply of
provisions ON hand moderate. Correspond
