Ion OF Jefferson, Texarkana

TExARKANA, March II, 1875.

TEXARKANA, March II, 1875.
DEAR HERALp-Since our last from
Marshall we took run over to Jeller-
son and this point. Jefferson Is situa-
ted Mt the head of navigation on Cy-
press bayou, fifty miles above its june
ton with the Red river, and may be
very properly called the Queen Of Cy-
press bayou and the terror of insu-
rance companies, from the number of
fires which has marked its history for
the past few years. 1t is only sixteen
miles from Marshall ana puts on me-
tropolitan frills when it speaks of its
little neighbor. Cypress bayou is n
turbid, tortuous stream, and is spanned
by bridge which does not reflect
much credit on its builders. Prior to
to the completion of the Texas and
Pacific, New Orleans almost monopo-
lized the trade of Jefferson, but ST.
Louis now gets large share, both via
Texarkana and the Red and Mississippi
rivers, lines of steamboats, plying direct
between the two points. Its churches
and court house are very handsome
buildings, aud two newspapers, the
Jimplecute and East Texas Leader,
are published daily. Weregret to learn,
however, that the last named sheet
discontnues Its daily Issue on the first
of April for want of patronage.
The current topic of discussion was
the doings OF "Queen MAIDS Merrie
Mem in April. We learn that two
hundred dollars has been subscribed to
purchase costumes in New Orleans,
and to make the affair n success. JEFF
ferson Is determined to show what it
can do. when 1t throws of the harness
Of business toll, and dons the garb of
mirth and merriment. 1t ships forty
thousand bales of cotton annually, but
the extension of the Great Northern to
Tyler has deprived it of some trade
from that quarter. The business men
have set their hearts upon the compile.
ton of the international from Long
view to Jefferson, and Governor
Cokesveto fairly put their teeth on
edge. After q short stay in the Queen
of Cypress (hayoul, we left for Texar-
kama, and arrived here Thursday
morning. As its name (Tex-ark-ana)
indicates, and ps the head of our letter
shows, the town sloeated Ia two states.
Ii is distant FROM Red river, about
twelve miles ut the nearest point, and
is a receiving and forwarding point for
Boston in Bowie county, and Clarks-
vile IN Red river county. 1t is EN-
phatically a railway town. The Texas
and Pacific and Cairo aud Fulton both
have shops and depots here, and we
saw some three. hundred cars standing
eoiithe different tracks. IT fairly bris
ties with hotels, the Marguant House,
Cosmopolitan, Planters, etc, and has
the usual humber of saloons To be
found in new railway towns.
The water Is freesione, and Broad
street, the principal thorougl1are, has
