| We clip the following from the
N. O. Picayune: |
| Notwithstanding the war time
and scarcity of money, says the Natchez Courier, we are told by our
Texas contemporaries that the work on the railroads is still steadily
progressing. Latest intelligence from Indianola represents the
railroad from that place to intersect the San Antonia & Mexican
Gulf Railroad was steadily and quietly going on. The Courier of that
place says the superintendent Mr. Dudley, is deserving of great
credit, not only for his constant endeavor but for the excellent
manner in which the work has been done. |
| If the people of Caddo were as
persevering as the Texans, about such matters it would be better for
them. |
