Gas in Dallas, Texas.

From the New Orleans Republican,
Some of the citizens of New Orleans
evidently entertain amicable designs
on Dallas, Texas. Mcssrs. c. Y. How
ard, William Harper, w. II. Roberts,
and several other public-spirited gen
tlcmen, have projected ar0ad from Ba-
You Goula, on the Mississippi, to Dali
las, n distance Of more than four hum
dred miles; and il will be just like them
to finish the work and have their cars
running before the other projected
companies sell out and divide up their
stock.
And now we learn that John Lock
wood, Esq, another citizen, has just
turned from Dallas, where he has made
all the needed arrangements for con-
slmcting extensive gas works. He has
secured small square Of ground, taken
estimates for erecting the requisite
buildings, and will 90 ahead at once
with the business Mr.. I,ockwood's
experience rs one of the leading direct
ors of the Jefferson Gaslight Company
of this city, will be of value to him,
and secure to the people of Dallas as
complete system of gaslighting, in
Guiding supply, quality of gas, machin-
cry, mains, meters, ETC., as any city in
the United States can boast. It's some
thing of u compliment to New Orleans
that one of its citizens is able to wrest
from the grasping and rather lively
manufacturers of st. Louis Il little of
the trade and the favor of a leading
Texas community.
