The Texas delegation have had a
full conference upon matters pertain
iuk to the interests OF their State, and
agreed upon the general outlines OF q
bill to make Judicial district and re-
ofsahize the Federal Districts Of that
State. The matter of the Texas and

seemed to be almost entire uuanimity
on the point that Government encour.
agemeut should be extended to one
main line Yves. from Fort Worth di.
rectly to San Diego, without any con-
uection with the Southern Pacific Of
California, also encouragement to ono
direct line from some point on the al
ready completed road on the Eastern
boundary of Texas to the Mississippi
River at Memphis, Vicksburg or New
Orleans a. might b deemed best by

be affected by it. 1t is said, by friends
Of the road, that such = proposition
with strong guarantees for the protec'

This square, manly announcement

He may make such discount. from
our statement as any supposed self
interest on our part may be

found true. Any intelligent, candid

the business, will tell him the same
