OK Sunday several gentlemen followed
the line of the International from the city
to Summit station. Between the big cut
near Mrs. Martins and Summit, the grad
jpS,is all finished, and on Sunday several
gahgs fmen were at work completing two
or three small bridges, the finishing of
which was most likely accomplished by
noon yesterday. The track had been laid
down about quarter of mile south of
Ssmmt and the ties delivered along-the
line for q few hundred yards farther At
Summit considerable quantities of iron and
ties and bridge tImbers and lumber had
been accumulated, and it is probable track
laying this way will commence this morn
ing. The grading through the big cut will
not be completed till towards the close of
the week, and by the time it is ready for
the ties and iron, the balance of the road
bed from there on to the depot grounds on
Cypress street will also be in readiness. We
expect to see the International cars run in
on Cypress street by Wednesday of next
week

AUSTIN ASTIoUITIEs.-In making exea-

AUSTIN was perhaps never before so
crowded with strangers from all parts of
the country as now, and many of them
represent large capital, who come with the
view of investing aid remaining if they
become favorably impressed with the ap,
pearance and prospects of Texas. Others
are here prospecting and 20 report to rela-
lives and friends behind who are only
waiting for the word before starting from
distant States to tho sunny lands OF Texas
All this argues well, for it shows the in
terest felt by the thousands every
where who, in these stringent times,
are DESTROYS of changing their residence
from the more densely- populated portions of
the Union to State where cheap lands
can be had and new start made with
shattered fortunes. IL is probable the i'm
migration to Texas this season will be Ut
precedented, even by the rush that was
made to Kansas a few years ago. Next
month, after thescompletion of the Inter
national into this city, perhaps hundreds
of immigrants will arrive IN Austin where
now only dozens come.

A FARMER from over the river stated yes
terday in this city that he and his neigh
bors had been in great glee for the past few
days. They had frequently imagined they
heard the firing of cannon and they were
firm in the belief that the city of Austin
was celebrating the glorious news of the
election of Tilden. When, however, he
came to the city, he learned that no reliable
and satisfactory news had been received,
and that the reports he and bis neighbors
had been shouting themselves hoarse over
came from the blasting out of solid rock on
the International Railroad near this city.
1t is all very necessary to have railroads
built, but the constructors of them, while
making deep impressions in the bowels of
the earth, have no right to make improper
impressions on the minds of long suffer
ing and patient people. In these days Of
doubts and uncertainties, gossip and corrup-
ton, people should be extremely careful
how they take in reports of any kind, and
should only look to the daily STATESMAN
for facts and information.

A FURNITURE FACToRY.-A joint stock
company has been formed for the establish

chased at the foot OF the Avenue and i'm.
mediately east Of the gas works for its loca-
ton. The officers of the company are John
Mcdonald, president; DR.. w. II. Turner,
secretary; G. w. Glasscock, treasurer. An
establishment of the kind ought to pay
well in this city, and we are glad to be able
to announce that the above gentlemen have
determined to lead off in the important
work Of establishing manufactures in this
city. Perhaps, now that an example has
been set in this line, other manufactures
may also be started. Austin should have
cotton and wooden mills, cotton presses,
ETC., before the close of 1877. --

three cotton bales and six oxen, on election
day. He has been waiting ever since to
! hear the result. He wabDles up one line of
groceries a mile and then down the other
side of the street, taking in ninety bar
rooms on each side. A day is consumed in
making the grand round. At last accounts
he had drunk three cotton bales and two
oxer, and the old woman, hearing of his
fix, was after him. He will be hauled home
to day, and whisky will be fat IN Dallas
