Correspondence OF the Herald
HOUSTON, March "A, 1850
Onmy return to Houston, after an absence
ofhardly three months, | was struck with
tho Improvement the city had made in that
little time. A number of fine brick stores
has been erected, and multitudes of handsome
I, sidences had sprung up all over the city.
An air of thrift and prosperity pervaded
everything. Real-estate had advanced and
was in active demand. Houston is enjoying
4 "boom," and it is one which l think will
run on nm indefinite time Fit does not, it
will be the fault of her citizens and the ad-
mnistration of her municipal affairs. Her
cotton receipts ARE nearly a hundred per
cent greater than they were this time last
wear. and it ia safe to say that all other lines
of business have shared at least an equal in,
crease. 1t Is curious to consider what is the
reason of all this change When l ask the
business men about it, they all say lit is be-
because we have worked for it." There
is grest deal in this undoubt-
edly. In the last few years
number of young men in Houston have
come to the front az business men, and they
are proving themselves full of energy and
good sense. Besides this, they all have large
capital, and when brain and energy are
backed by plenty of money it is difficult to
put "a limit to their achievements. Some
thing also is due to the favorable position of
the city. Being the diverging point of eight
or nine railroads, she has the whole vast area
of Texas to CLEAN from at will. These rail-
roads, for the most part, have large interests
here, and it would be natural to suppose that
they give Houston some preference over
other points. don't know this to be so, but
it would be reasonable to suppose so. And
then, how much money do these eightor nine
railroads pour out every month in Houston
to employees, lsborers, foundries, machine
shops, etc. Z! have no means of estimating
the amount, but it Isl very large sum.
This large amount is in constant
circulation, keeping the retail mer-
