Thus all was arranged when the little

Foster. Ludlow & Co.'S circular, re-
ferring to railway building in Texas,
states that some lull seems to have taken
place in railroad building during the past
month, although enterprises in hand are
well pushed ahead. San Antonio has
now the Galveston, Harrisburg and San
Antonio road, and New Bransfels will
soon have its branch TO Marion com
pleted. Those who know the resources
of the county through which this road
passes, and for which San Antonio will
be its terminus for some years to come,
cannot but look TO greater prosperity
than ever for the city of the Alamo. The
Texas and New Orleans road progresses
favorably, and opens up the finest tim.
Der region Of Texas. The Texas Western
narrow gauge has given another ten
miles under contract; the Houston and
Texas central is changing the gauge of
its western division TO standard width,
and is extending its Waco branch quite
rapidly. The east line road has twenty
miles completed and additional five miles
graded the Dallas and Wichita road is
now certain to be carried forward to
Denton, and the Texas Pacific will be
extended west of Sherman, in order to
accommodate the large cattle interests
centering there. During the last year
Texas constructed 1919 miles of RAILROAD
more than any other state in the
union. She has now 2,072 miles of com
pleted road, and stands twelfth in order
on a basis of a total milage, eleven states
more miles of road completed.
This is q good showing, and augurs well
for the future"

The Amazon Trade.

The late commodore Maury shed much
light upon the trade capacity of the re-
gion of the Amazon in Brazil, which he
looked upon as destined to be one OF the
most lucrative in commerce. The Phil
adelphia Ledger calls attention to the
same subject, and says that when once
the energy of the American and British
merchant is intelligently devoted to
opening this vast and productive region,
its trade will rival that of the East In.
dies. The chief tributaries of the Anna
zOn are the MADEIRA and Negro rivers,
the former flowing in from the south and
the latter from the north. The conhu-
enCe of the Negro is in the heart of
Brazil, and near its mouth h the town of
Manaos, which has hitherto been a chief
stopping place Of the lines of steamers or
sail vessels from the upper portions of
the Iivers and transshipped at its
Wharves TO other steamers trading TO
Para, on the bayou of that name, about
eighty miles from the Atlantic. Para.
probably the best known city OF Brazil
TO the foreign merchant, for it equals
Rio Janeiro in commercial importance,
haH petu tut tldulIg port OF tnls great
river valley, whence have come the ships
OF the world. America, England and
Portugal have heretofore conducted the
bulk OF its commerce, and it has taken a
considerable amount of American goods,
sent chiefly from New York and Boston,
and transhipped at its wharves on vessels
going TO the interior. The Costumes of
this transhipment is hereafter to be
saved, if it is possible to do 80, for a line
of American steamers is about to be es-
tabli7hed TO ply direct between New
York and NanaOs, entering the main
mouth of the Amazon north of Para.
This line will probably receive a sub.
sidy from the province of Amazonia, of
which ManaOs is the chief city, and il is
also said to have the sanction of the en-
peror, At the same time other Brazil
ian trade is not neglected, for the pioneer
vessel of a new line between New York
and Rio Janeiro will sail from the former
city about the beginning of March.
