lean weekly newspaper, published at

tion, SO per year. II is handsomely
printed in clear-faced type, on strong,
white paper, and is, and will be, very
ably edited. Judging from the num-
Der before US, the editor designs new
and a happy departure from that style
of wholesale Justification of southern
affairs, and y;llifcation of the demo
cratic party, which has made 50 many
republican newspapers odious to the
southern people. lie evidently under
stands that a newspaper can be strongly
partisan in politics, and yet be cour-
teous and dignifed in tone, and that
such newspaper renders the best ser
vice to its party, and y most likely 70
secure patronage, The republicans in
Louisiana are certainly to be congratu-
lated upon their new party organ. IT
requests us to exchange, and we wall
be happy to do so.

The EMPIRE SrATE.-So New York
is called, but Texas is destined to pos
sess the title. The Galveston News of
the 29th ultimo, in a mammoth num-
Der, specially prepared to display the
resources of Texas, shows by diagrams
and statistics that Texas has an area of
a74,S56 square miles, and population
Of about two millions. This is an area
of about $4,000 square miles larger
than the Austrian empire, about so, 900
square miles larger than the German
empire, and more than twice the area of
Great Britain and Ireland. In 1889
over $50, 900 bales of cotton were pro-
duced in Texas, on 1925 square miles
of land. If the cotton crop of the
United States for the same year, 5,073,-
53l bales, had been grown in Texas, it
would have required an area of only
l5,ll2 square miles, or only about five
times the area planted In cotton in
Texas the same year. The world uses
about II, 200, 900 bales of cotton, which
could be grown in Texas, at the rate
of only one bale to- the acre, on less
than 10000 square miles. If Texas is
not dismembered, and if her popula-
ton increases for the next twenty years
in the ratio Of its increase for the last
twenty, it will have population twenty
years from now of at least twenty mil
lions, or one half of the present popu-
lation Of the United States. The min
eral, agricultural and stock raising re-
sources Of Texas are simply gigantic.

OUR RAILRoAD.-Thc iron draw
bridge of the Sabine river bridge is
completed and swung, and in a few
days this bridge will be ready for trains
to cross it, when track laying win be
pushed from that point eastward. The
bridge is finished across bayou Shou-
pique. Concreting the central pier of
the Calcasieu river bridge commenced
yesterday, and the majority of the small
piers are in position and ready for the
concrete. Track laying will commence
Monday west of Shoupique bayou, and
will be pushed rapidly to meet the
track laying force coming eastward
from the Sabine. Track is being laid
in the swamp north of Lake Charles
about quarter of a mile, to meet
the trestle work in the lake. Col.
Adams is in New Orleans and has de-
cided to commence laying track west
ward from Vermilionyille. The Mount
Hope mills, cutting lumber for the
railroad, are running night and day.
With good weather the two track lay
ing forces between Lake Charles and
the Sabine ought to lay three-fourths
Of mile Of track daily. There are
only sixteen miles of track to be laid
between those points, and with favor
able weather we may expect the cars
to be running from Orange to West
Lake Charles by the middle of next
month.

the Supreme Court of Maine, (their
constitution allows such proceedings

Court has answered them with full
and unanimous bench, in way that

full James remark about All Sin:
But he played that day upon William
And me in way despise."
Not to put too fine a point upon it,
the Supreme Court has sat down on
Gov. Garcelon and his Council, and the
fusionists are depressed and the repub-
licans jabilant. The end, however, is
not yet. Governor Garcelon says the
opinion Of the Supreme Court may
serve as a guide in some future instan-
ces, but that his decision in this case
has been made, according to the law
as be understood it, and that he means
to stand by it. 1t is pity Samuel ].

Garcelon's backbone.
