a PARIS dispatch says that the
capital of the Panama Canal Com
pany will be S00,OO0,000 francs, di-
Sided into 100000 shares of 500
francs each. The issue will be made
at par, % francs being paid at sub
scription, 100 ON allotment and the
rest as required. The total cost is
estimated at 600,O00,000 francs. The
sum necessary for completing the
canal over and above the capital,
viii be raised by theissue of obliga-
tions. Five per cent. interest is to be
paid ON the shares during the execu-
ton of the work. Of the net profits
eighty per cent. is allotted to share
holders by the terms of the conces-
sion. NJ. de Lesseps states that the
contractors have sent in their esti-
mate, according to which the con-
struction of the canal will not cost
500, 200, 600 francs, and that it has been
provided by a memorandum, signed
on July z, that special American
committee sitting in New York shall
represent the interests of the CON-
pany in the United States as to all
that relates to the observance of the
neutrality of the canal as settled by
the law of concession of the Repub-
lie of Columbia. But this is only
the beginning of probability.

work is placed under Roadway, the

Seventeen hundred dollars may
not be too large sum of money TO
pay for the approved plan for anew
Capitol, but the time for plans to be
presented seems short. Architects
throughout the Union should be in
duced TO compete, and to do so they
should be at once fully Informed as
to the size and shape of the grounds
provided for the building and per-
fectly instructed as to its elevation
and topography, and as TO the eity's
approaches leading to it. Then, too,
they should be informed as to our
prevailing currents of air, and as to
compass bearings on these Capitol
grounds. If architects in distant
parts of the country are expected to
compete they should be at once in

.AppletoR's Journal, for November,
has an able and most interesting ar
tiele, by Mr.. Carey, an excellent
lawyer, upon the subject of married
women's rights. He takes the
ground that all the common law
traditions and superstitions, through
which the spinster, upon marriage,
sacrificed all property rights 10 the
husband, she and they becoming
subordinated to him, shall be abol-
ished, and that a perfect freedom of
interests should be established in all
matters o" business and property.
The author traces the legal history
of marriage for centuries back, and
shows the slight differences which
exist in the legal status of the mar
ried woman of to-day and that of
feudal times. He says: my con-
clusion is simply this: Laws made
in reference TO mental positions ac-
corded to married women by early
civilizations, ought to be supplanted
by laws consistent with and fully
recognizing their modern elevation.
When this is fairly and honestly
done, women will solve the remain
der of the problem for themselves"
Texas has advanced further than
any state of the Union in according
to married women those rights,
which are denied them in primitive
society. No injurious consequences
have resulted in marital relations in
consequence of our liberal laws,
while on the other hand it is appar-
ent that society has been vastly ben
Gifted by them. Women are natur-
ally more cautious than men, and
are rarely led astray by snares that
beset men, and property rights are
vastly better protected under laws
protecting them than otherwise.
So long as the wife's head is level,
as it usually is, the homestead, I'M
der our wise laws. is protected, and
the family is independent, and hence
contented and happy. The country
that gives women the possession
and management of homes, raises
up men ready 10 defend and protect
its rights under all circumstances.
Legislators are often piled with
olans often calculated to impair the
rights of women and children, and
when it is accomplished Texas will
have taken backward step in its
civilization.
