In the midst OF II prosperity IN
journalism never surpassed in Eas-
tern Texas, the Times newspaper
Office on Monday last was destroy
ed by fire. THO Daily and Week
ly paper had acquired a Character

State, which promised a career of
usefulness, Of accomplishing good
to society and government, and Of

of this city, but tho State at large
This was gratifying to the proprie-
tor, and it is pleasant to him to
think he will soon resume his la
bors. There are great duties before
the press of the State, and he hopes
% be cnahled to take part in discus
sions in which all patriotic men are
deeply intere sted.
The indulgence Of friends is in

The Texas Railroad Contract
Signed.

G. A. Whitney & Co. yesterday
received dispatch from New York;
in which Mr.. Griswold, President Of
the New Orleans, Mobile and Texas
Railroad Company, announces that
the contract for the completion of
the road from Brashcar to tho Sa
bine had just been signed, and that
work along the line woa!d be com
mcnccd within fifteen days. An
ether dispatch to the SAME effect
was received from &. W. r.. Railey,
General Superintendent, which
states that the contract signed re-
quires the road to be completed
within thirteen months, or by the
1st of March, 1873, from Berwick's
Bay to VcrmlionvilIe. along the al
ready graded track Of the original
ly projected rpclcasas Railway lille,
and from Vermiliohville to the Sa.
bine, along the located route Of The
New Orleans, Mobile and Texas
Railway. Meanwhile the bridge
across Brashear Bay is to be COM
pleted, as well rs the road extend
ing from the Sabine to Houston.
This gives II definite assurance
That our railway connections with
Texas will be an accomplished fact
in q little more than year. The
ground along the entire line is high
and nearly level, presenting no en-
ginecring diiticHlties worth speak
ing of.
1t is stated that the reasons for
commencing at Brashcar are, that
ninety miles of the track beyor d
the Bay are already graded, and
that by following tlht line to Yer
milienviie, where the Two roads
meet, and thence proceeding along
the line of the other road TO the
Texas border, the connection with
Texas can be made six or eight
months earlier than it is possible on
/ the route via Donaldsonvillo, much
OF which is swampy, requiring dry
weather to ensure successful or
profitable work.
When the track to tie Sabine is
finished, the whole energies of the
Directory will be bent TO the spec
dy completion Of the sections be-
tween Vermilionville and Donald
sonviIle and between VcrmiIion-
vile and Shreveport via Ale&ah-

Dallas, ard hopes not 10 be taisunder-
stood as to its purport. 1t touches 'n''e"'
upon rather delicate sulject--the lack OF
proper hospitality and courtesy 10 """
comets among us--but it is well enough,
PERHAPS, that the subject sionld be pre-
sented and thought upon, if 1t never
should be carried out to Il desirable ex-
tent. There is nothing so cheap as pleas
mt manne RI and kind words, and the ex-
bibition OF desire fer social intercourse;
and there is nothing which returns SO rich
A reward for so small an investment. We
heartily concur in the views, presented,by
our correspondent, aud venture the opin-
len that the people oi Dallas, with all their
nany good and substantial qualities,
are n little lacking in these outward de-
mons,rntious, which, however tri1ing 'hoy
mny be deemed Bv stn'e really make the
strongest impressions upon strangers, ana
serve AZ basis for favorable or unsavor.
