Captain johnson, assistant engineer
of the Texas Pacific furnishes us with
the following items respecting the pro-
gress of this rode for the last few
weeks:
Track laying on the Texas and Pacif-
ic Railroad, despite the continuous rain
: for twenty-seven consecutive days, the
track has been laid by Messrs. Dewey
& Company, thirty five miles west of
Longview, and by Messrs Rowe, Gear
ing and Miller, thirty-five miles east Of
Dallas. The gap of fifty four miles is
graded and bridged, and will be all
track-laid by the first of August, and
trains run from Dallas to Shreveport.
Section houses, water tanks, side
tracks and depot houses, are put in
along the line, at proper points, and
the road equipped in first class order as
fast as the track is laid.
The present terminus is at Terrell, in
Kaufman county, pretty little new
town of forty houses, where single
month since the countless herds grazed
ON the prairie.
Business flows to Terrell from Kauf-
man to Rockwell, and from Brooklyn
to Cedar Grove, and in a short time it
will blossom into an Incorporated town
OF Importance.
Here a the crossing of the Central
railroad also.
Wafer plenty, and of the very quail
ity, flows TO the top of the wells,
wood is convenient aud plenty, and the
situation is high and healthy, and well
drained on all sides.

Railroads.

The initiated may be able to IN
derstand the moves on the r. II.
chess board, but We confess TO be puz-
zled. What gives US trouble now Is
70 understand the Portsmouth con-
plications. The "RepUJlicaa," says
that Portsmouth is going to do al
she oncht TO for the X Sc. f r. y.
and that it will be completed by the
last of next September; also that
Campbell Bracken, Greenup and
Boyd counties in Kentucky are 90
ing to subscribe largely to the line,
aud insure a road from Newport to
Big Sandy within year. Also that
Baltimore is aiding largely and the
Bait Il Ohio Il. r. is giving "strong
and moral support" whatever that is.
This seems to be a scheme to circum-
vent our CheS. 4 Ohio r. X. and
which, the Portsmouth paper says,
will give them a bridge across the
Ohio at that point.
Another paragraph IN the same
paper, says a party Of engineers
with Captain cambridge Of the G. Il
O. r. r. are surveying road from
Portsmouth to Pound Gap, AMI Alb
iugtou on the Atlantic and Miss IS
ippi r. r. formerly Virginia and
TENNESSEE This road, we believe is
under the auspices of the &. 4 o. Il.

How is It? in any event it seems
that Portsmouth will be benefited.

Virginia Politics.

On the 9th of August the Conserva-
tive party of Virginia, hold their bom-
mating convention to select a suitable
candidate to represent their party In
the coming Gubernatorial contest. Sew
eral gentlemen Of each party have been
suggested and in fact some who are
not fully identified with either party
are mentioned in connection with the
Office. Hon. Il. NJ. T. Hunter, has been
spokcn of. but he is not considered
available by the conservatives OF that
State. Hon. John Lctcher ditto.
Baldwin has been mentioned also,
and many Others, but the party will
ann 70 select the man who can control
the larrest number ofvotcs independent
of his past political histoy-or his past
services to his party. Th'republ.cans are
also looking around for an available
man. Each party is looking for the
man who can control votes, bis antecc-
dents viii have but little to do with the
matter. Il. W Hughes, and George

toned in connection with the Republican
nomination. Ex-Governor Henry y,
Wise, also wants to be Governor again,
and while he is not willing to be the
candidate of either party he is perfectly
willing TO defeat either if he can get
a chance to do SO. lie says:
