Texas Rail Roads
   We learn from the Galveston News that the various rail roads of that State are progressing with unabated energy. About three hundred hands are steadily employed on that section of the Harrisburg Rail Road {Buffalo Bayou, Brazos & Colorado RR}, between Columbus and La Grange, while it is said that equal or even larger numbers of laborers are engaged on the Houston and New Orleans {Texas & New Orleans RR} and the Eastern Texas Rail Road.
