GOVERNOR COKE, of Texas. vetoed tn

GOVERNOR COKE, of Texas, vetoed the
bill to settle the claims of the Inter-
national Railroad Company, to a clear
cash subsidy of $4,000 per mile for u
line of $50 miles, from the Rio Grande to
the Red river. He proposes to save the
State the $5,6OO,00O; but in lieu thereof
he suggests q land subsidy OF twenty
sections to the mile, the road to be ex-
empted from taxation for twenty years.
The land subsidy would amount to 7,06S,-
600 acres, which, at So per acre, would
realize over $S5, 900, 900. A question arose
as to the validity of the original grant
on account of fraud, and hence the bill
to settle the doubt, that the Governor
has vetoed. He is willing to let the
company sue the State in the courts and
find out what they are legally entitled
to. 1t strikes us that the land subsidy
will be accepted unless the line is west
Of the Tooth meridian, where, according
to General Hazen, there Is very little
land fit for the plow.

ACCORDING to the Mexican correspond.
ence Of the Alta California, that country
is looking up in every respect. Hel
shipping is surprisingly large and her
commerce is extending. The people are
cured of revolutions and all hands are

Railways are commanding the enthusi

capitalists, both domestic and foreign.
Schools are increasing and order every
where prevails. The Alta thinks there
is no hope of acquiring any more terri

want any more. We don't concur in
this view, that we don't want any more
territory. There will be no refuge for

lent season, the crop will probably be
unusually heavy, and perhaps the larg-
est ever raised in the United States,
while the price, judging from the past,
will undoubtedly full fully 80 per cent.
below that of the year past. We are
only enabled to judge, under ordinary
circumstances, by our former experience
in matters of this kind, but the pros
poets are that farmers who raise corn in
1876 will sell it tor about 40 cents per
bushel or even lower, and that moder-
ate acreage OF corn and considerable at
tention to other branches of farming this
year would be better policy with those
who do not care to raise corn at these
figures.
