'I'tic state of Texas

Km row Kcvi t.w: Having received many letters of inquiry from parties ii: "oid Montgomery'' 1 concerning what I saw in 'Texas. I would like to state to thetn through your valuable paper something about,

Texas. Texas is a "big" State, both in size and resources. The people are generally intelligent, sociable, and very anxious for northern men to come among them and help build up their beautiful country. There are many railroads traversing the State, giving home markets for most the products of the soil. Th" State has !).500 miles of railroad, and the navigable rivers are equal to those of live other States. The area is 2ff.780 square miles. Her population was. in 1-iOO. 2.2:i5.5 Jo. Southern Texas between latitude L'5 and 30 degrees. and even further north, sugar cane, grapes, tigs, olives., plums, pears, and peaches are grown with remarkable success. Cotton and the cereals do well. Central Texat is the stock, grain and cotton country. Kastern Texas is the lumber region. Western Texas and the Panhandle are noted for the "at cat tie they produce.

The statistics lSiM-'J show that Texas produced r»ore rice than South Carolina: more sugar aud sorghum than Louisiana more wheat than the Dakotas the com land area is larger than Illinois. The products of 1791-2 were: Cot ton. *77.000.000: Corn.*28.000,000 wheat. 55.200,000: oats. iS.200.000: garden produce.
