CORRECTION FROM pnor. FensHEy

Editor Democrat An editorial note in the
DEMOCRAT appeared July 20 that mistates me
entirely ON the sui jet of railroads.
L have not, as therein intimated published
| several articles against the practicability OF
railroads from New, Orleans through the allu-
WAN No man has written more persistently,
or perhaps eHectually, in favor Of such roads ia
past years, when we maintained levees
ana now, only prefer 40 more safe the route
to Texas by way OF Morgan City and Iberia 10
Orange to reach Houston, where nine railroads.
from all parts OF Texas converge to the route by
way OF Bayou Goula, through the plaauemins
and Atchafalsya swamps TO Alexandria, ana
thence to Marshall Ia northeast rexas, where we
meet but two roads.
gave the reasons for this preference from
'hydrostatic" standpoint, in which you politely
acknowledge my authority.
The reasons were briefly these:
THAT until the levees are securely and solidly
bullt, TO use your own language, .'no railroad
across the Atcbafalaya basin is SAFE on account
OF Hoods; that the same fate awaits them that
broke the Jackson road twice, the Morgan or
higher up In the delta, each more than
once; that the distance to be constructed
from Bayou Goula to Marshall Ia 1853 miles:
and will cost 100000 and take three years 10
construct IL, while the distance from Iberia to
orange, the open gep, Is only liz miles, will cost
N:5o00u0, and one year for it's construction
gave these reasons In my address before the
property Holders Union, and in an article con-
tributed to the DEMOCRAT which was lost
have published nothing.
viii yon have the courtesy TO give me place for
this correction, and oblige, yours faithfully

OUR TRADE WITH MEXICO.

Schleicher, of Texas, believes that
everything that is possible should
be done to increase our trade with Mex
leo. Nothing, indeed, will so conduce
to peace and the abolition of border
raids as close business connections with
our neighbors. England, the United
States, France and Germany are the
nations which trade most with Mexico.
The importations from these countries
into Mexico are: England, $12. DOC. 600
United States, $4,000, 600; France.
SIS, DOC, 900; Germany, 81, 600 900. England
secured her preponderance Of the trade
during our civil war. Since the close OF
the war American trade has been
steadily on the increase, but it is ap--
parent, from our proximity, that we
ought to double the amount Of our ex-
ports to Mexico.
at present the trade is increasing be-
tween Mexican Pacific ports and Cali
fornia, San Francisco being chiefly
benefited by it. In 1873 (the last year
for which we have the data Mexican
exports Of metals and minerals alone
amounted to over $25, 000,0 900, Of which
England and China received the
largest portion. There is an active
effort being made now to establish
a line Of steamers between New
Orleans and Vera Cruz, which will un-
desoubtedly bring great deal OF trade to
this country. Ii Mexico had two or
doubt that some of the numerous rail-
roads projected to unite with the Amer
lean system will be completed, and then
there will no longer be any doubt about
American supremacy in this valuable,
trade

James Murphy Dies from His Wound at
the Charity Hospital.
The man, James Murphy, who was stabbed
Saturday night at the corner of Eighth and Dry
AIDES streets by one George Kountz, died from
the effects Of his wound at IL o'clock yesterday
at the Charity Hospital.
The full particulars of the tragedy were pub
lished in the DEMOCRAT on the morning follow
ing the stabbing, together with b statement made
by Murphy, but as there are always two sides to
story, a reporter interviewed several dis
interested eye witnesses Of the affair, who ex-
pressed the opinion that it was . blooded
and dastardly murder.
On Sunday morning it was thought that
Murphy would die within an hour, and Judge
Smith repaired to his bedside for the purpose of
taking his dying statement. but Murphy did not
believe he was going to die, and hence the declar-
alton was not taken.
Kountz was brought to the ward for Identifies

said: "That is George-he is the man who
