 so as to leave the quaint old city oi
 the holy faith nearly twenty miles ir
 the distance. This circumstance has
 given rise 10 another corporation
 known as the New Mexico and
 Southern Pacific Railroad Company. The people are quite enthusiastic over the matter and are offering the com pany every inducement possible, in ciuding considerable cash. In Santa Fe, on the 10th instant, fifteen of the principal property owners, elector
 and tax payers Of Santa Fe County pc titiOned the Hon. Probate Judge that an election of the electors of the vari- ous precincts of sad county who own taxable property in said county be called, in conformity with the laws or this Territory, for the purpose of sub hitting tO said electors and voting upon the following proposition 10 wit:
