Dear Sr-Please insert the following as an
advertisement, which the editor of the Plea.
y,tne rejected for the reason that it "was op.
posed to the policy of his paper"
State Bonds.
New ORLEANS, Nov. 25, 1875.
Editor Picayune:
Dear Sir-As much has been written of late
concerning the stability of the new State con-
soils as an investment, allow me to ask few
pertinent questions, touching the future of
these securities. The amount of bonds ISSUE
to date is Sc S66, Alb, on which the interest
due on LIST January will undoubtedly be met,
say three and one-half per cent on seven mil
lions is $215, 1000.
But indulging the very natural supposition
that the balance of old bonds should be
funded within the next year, how can this
interest be met?
The past due interest on remainder of say
$4,000 600 bonds, at fourteen per cent, would
be 81, 120, 600, and the interest tor the year
1876 will be, on the entire debt Cat seven per
cent? 81, $50, 000 additional.
Whence can the present State officers, not
withstandipg the perfect confidence the good
citizens have in them, derive such an income :?
Can it be raised from taxation on real
estate, already so over. assessed that it falls
like ripe fruit into the capacious NAV of the
estate Tar Ring?"
Your journal Of this morning asserts that
Gov Kellogg is rejoiced at the recent advance
in the price of State bonds.
The noble letter of Mr.. ]. B. Laftte, in
which he gives his reasons for not serving as
President of the Cotton Exchange (if he must
at the same time serve as a member of the
State Funding Board), is sad but faithful
reflection of the sentiments of this COM
munity as to the manufacture of State bonds.
Hoping to have some light as to their
present and prospective value, I beg leave to
subscribe myself, your friend,

Mr.. Smoothbore, the original Model
Boarder. has returned to the city, after an
extended summer tour through the Florida
parishes. Owing to unarrsnged business
transactions he will no longer be a guest Of
Mrs. Mehitabel Hashton and for the time
being he has taken up his residence at the
hospitable mansion of Madam Skimmilksky.
He has gained in health and lost nothing in
appetite, suavity and polish by his residence
in the piny woods. The table talk yesterday
morning turned upon the subject of eggs,
their remarkable cheapness in the country,
the cost of them at retail in the city and the
economy of buying them in large quantities.
The landlady remarked that, with her family
OF thirty boarders, single barrel had
already lasted three months and that the
nearer the bottom of the barrel she came the
better they held out. Mr.. Smoothbore COM
mended her economy, but suggested that he
had reason to suspect that shippers some
times packed the bottom Of the barrel with
second class eggs. Several eggs were left on
the table untouched, much to the surprise of
Mrs. Skimmilksky.

TW IRRIGATTON RILL,

Senator Russell's general bill providing
for irrigation has become law. 1t will,
no doubt, establish new order of affairs
in many parts of the State, but especially
in the West, In fact the passage of the
bill has been procured by q Western Sena,
tor, particularly for tho benefit of Western
Texas This section has some of the very
best lands in the world, only awaiting the
advantages of iIrigation to cause it to be.
come one of the most productive agricul
tural regions on the globe. This object
will now be effected through the law re.
feFfed to. The scheme is one most practi.
cal The law provides for four classes OF
canals for irrigation purposes: First, thirty
feet wide end four feet deep; second, if
teen feet wide and four feet deep; third,
nine feet wide and three feet deep; fourth,
an average width of six feet, and an average
depth of two and one-half feet. Com.
panies constructing canals Of the first class
shall receive sixteen sections of land pei
mile for constructing the same, twelve sec
tions for tho second class, eight sec
tions for the third class, and six sec
tions for the fourth class. Companies
shall have the night for five years to
locate lands INDICATED within three miles
of their canals. They are required to con-
struct sections of three miles each before
certificates for the donation will be issued
from the Land Office. If the whole num-
Der Of certificates are demanded, companies
must locate alternate sections for the State,
but they can take half the amount and 10
cate alone for themselves. Companies win
be required to keep the canals in order for
ten years, and the State reserves the right to
control rates OF charges for freight and
supplies Of water. They shah have the right
Of way through all public lands and be
governed according to the general law in To
gard 10 passing through private lands
They shall have the free use Of the water Of
all rivers The bin also provides that ca
nails exclusively for purposes Of navigation,
passing through bays OF arms Of the sea,
shah be entitled to sixteen sections Of land
per mile, but shah construet channel 100
feet wide. The law is one Of the best eyel
placed upon the statute books, and Senator

HOW CITIES ARE MADE GREAT.

Baltimore wants to be great commercial
city, and there is no reason why she should
not gain her end. She already has the best
railroad in the country, and it has been
managed SO honestly and fairlyshat now
when it is engaged in strugge with a
rival'Foad it has the full sympathyof busi-
ness men everywhere. The coffee trade is
already nearly monopolized by Bttimore,
and she is rapidly gaining large hare of
the Western grain trade. We aresIad to
note the prosperity of the city, al trust
that the future of Baltimore will be brill
lant as that of every other Ameridn me-
tropolis. There is no form of jtlousy
more contemplate than that of riyl CEN
tres of trade. It is ever true, if twoowns
be well founded, that the prosperity { one
inures to the aggrandizement of thether.
Each great city of the United statesA away
from the sea shore, is the commercisce
tire of very nearly the same geograhical
area. Chicago, st Louis, Kansas Cityyin-
cinuati, Pittsburgh, Louisville, have ach
the same territorial domain. These lcts
pertain, of course, to progressive Soutern
towns to be made cities if foreign caital
and enterprise be not expelled by stpid
prejudices or ignorant parsimony. Alap
of Texas may be studied with Advantage
By those who would designate to day aes
of the great cities of this great republiIof
the future.
Baltimore is the true market for he
South. The Baltimore and Ohio road igte
safest and most honestly and wisely mai
aged of all American railways. 1t ia
nearest those that the South should
enrich and while, II other advantages
presented are equal, it should have pre-.
eedence because of proximity, yet no mere
sectiouul PSojadiee can or should control
the course of trade. Business has no
known relations to religion or politics, and
there is no honesty or freedom of opinion
where stupid people endeavor to force their
creed, affecting either church or State, into
commercial or business affairs. 1t thus re-
suits that in the great contest now pending
between the two greatest railway combina-
tions in the world we have only to give pref.
erence to that corporation which best sub
serves Texan purposes, giving our people the
shortest and cheapest route to the East, and
it is only strange that the Baltimore and
Ohio company has no agency here to rep
resent its interests in Western and Central
Texas.
The weekly democratic statesman. [volume] (Austin, Tex.) 1871-1883, 1875-03-11

An infamous wretch, who hates the In
ternational, and even the fame and name of
Texas, had the audacity to say that ''Texans
Will not be 10th to repudiate." He says
''many Texans ran away to escape repudi-
ated debts, private and public, incurred in
the Eastern Gulf States twenty OF thirty
years ago. and when Tho issue Il made the
.AsefsEnHA Tsreifsh 1-egislnture aud tl,sa &C
cursed Yankee swlndlers,' who hsvs 49,
SIS, 600, 900 in the State, will find that they
are counting without their host if they ex,
pect tho people of Texas to pay, volunta-
rily, ono cent which may be evaded by
votes" The assertion and facts as stated
are foully false. Those who fed from repu-
diation will never again aid in consummat.
ing it. It stinks in the wide desert-waste
of old memories, and is the nightmare Of
honest pride aud patriotism.
