[ min-oisloits of n Trip Through the ludiim Nation- Correspondence ol the M I.ouU Republican , GAIAT.STOX , Texas.-.Taking the iloiisloti tt Texas Centr.il and tlio Galveston it Houston railroads , the ilistaiico between Dallas and Houston is 2(53 ( miles , nnd from Houston ( o 3nlvcston fifty miles. This added to 507 miles , the distance from Dallas to Scilalia , nnd to the distance between Sedalia nnd St. Louis , which is 180 nilcs , makes the distance between 3alvcston nnd St. Louis 1,011 miles , ind the running time , taking' ' thu' ines from the points named which ire tie shortest and fastest fifty 'lours.1 according to the last census , has n population of 22',000 , It is built on an island ot the same name. This .sland * is separated from the maiii and by the waters of the Galveston jay , and th railroads entering Gal- vcstbn reach il on trestle wqrk , of lilca driven in the sand beneath n dbptliof four feet of water. Tlio ( 'island is about' ' thirty-six miles _ eng , and its average width is about iwo'miles. The 'harbor ' is lormed'in the waters' "which' flow around the north point'or north chaiinol. After rounding the point the channel flows southwardly. About live miles from : ho city the waters begin to , shoal , orming what is called tlio outo 1 bar. This bar is n sue- icssion Of undulations formed ay the waters of tlio bay and gulf , causing n deposit ; of sand. This outer jar , 'which is the obstruction to the mrbor , is about COO yards in width ind the average depth of water "on it xt low tide is about 14 feet. Hence , vessels heavily laden and drawing more than 14 feet , must begin and end ; heir voyages about five miles from Jio city. Their cargoes are received ind dischaiged byjightcrs. Congress : or years has been applied to for the' REMOVAL OF THIS OBSTRUCTION , but responds in n very small way ; each congressman in the state has an appropriation to ask for the improve- nent of some obscure river or bayou in his district , so that when the imount appropriated to the whole state is divided up , the amount allot ted for tlio remov.il of this great impediment to commerce is" too small and meagre to bo of much ser vice. The removal of this bar , which should bo accomplished in nfow years , will make Galveston n commercial metropolis second to none in the south. The harbor is the best and safest on the coast , except perhaps that of Fcnsacola. Tlio Now Orleans and New York steamships are loaded at the wharf , but these are construct ed expressly for sailing over the bar. It has the finest beach in the world. This beach is about fairly miles long , as hard and smooth as a floor , and at any stage of the water not less than 100 feet wide , making a handsome boulevard. The surf bathing is mag nificent and entirely frco fromsdan- jerous undertow. This beach is about to be made attractive , like that of Coney Island. A largo pavilion is being - ing erected at the end of ono of the main streets , and houses for bathing purposes built to accommodate pleasure - uro seekers and invalids. OALVESTON'S ADVANTAGES. Galveston is a healthy city and free from all diseases except such as may accidentally bo brought into it by ves sels from foreign ports. It can be both a winter and summer resort The thermometer rarely falls below 40 to 50 degrees and seldom reaches 90 , with a cool south wind constantly blowing , tempering the heat and mak ing the nights cool and pleasant. Among its attractions for the sports man and epicure are its wealth of fish oyster , crab and shrimpr-and the luscious fruits of the tropics. Al though it is built on the sand , and its highest point is not more than five font above high water mark , the palm trco and oleander grow luxuriantly along the sidewalks and in the front yards. When it is considered that this thriving eity had only a popula tion of 7,000 in I860 , reduced by the war to 3,500 in 1805 , its growth since then is most renmrkablo nnd its pres ent position as n great commercial metropolis astonishing. COTTON is one of its principal shipments , In this line of commerce it ( lees as largo n business as any of the southern ports. In a few yearn , when Texas will produce o-s much cotton as either of its now rival producing states , Mis sissippi and Georgia , Galveston , will bo far the largest cotton-shipping port of the fioutli. RAILROADS. There is a street railroad on nearly every street in the city. Only ono railroad really entorH Galveston , the Houston and Galventon. The other roads end at Houston , nrid their passengers sengors and freights are transferred to Galveston by the Houston and Qalveston road. This road was sup posed to bo in the hands and under the control of Mr. Gould. Although ho owned one-third of the bonds ho has so far been unable to ob tain the consent of two of tlio trustees to the purchase. This road would give Mr , Gould the key of Galveston , to which the Mor gan interest , who own the road from Now Orleans to Galveston , now near ly completed between these points , and the owners of tho' Texas Central and Galvcston and Snn Antonio rail road , object. Hut that ho will accom plish his purpose and get possession of this road there seems to bo but little - tlo doubt. This road , in the hands of Gould , would give him , in addition to controlling nearly nil the other roads entering Galveston , a through line from Galveston to St. Louis over the International and Great Northern nnd St. Loiiis , Iron Mountain mid Southern railroads. BUSINESS HOt'SES. The business houses of Gnlvo"slon nro largo and costly. The cotton ex change is a handsome structure , built f.f Mono nnd brick. The brick is brought from Vhildolphia. Amoiiit the business houses is that of T. 1' . Willis * Hro. , cotton factors nnd general supplies. Tlio house does a business of $7,000,000 n fyonr. Mr. \Villis is the son-in-law of Gen Ster ling 1'iico , having married his only daughter , Stella. Mr. John W.Yil - Us , at ono time president of the Me chanics' bank of St. Louis , iauli mother largo concern , that of Moody Jamison , 'cotton factors nnd gro cers , and Mr. J. 11. Hftwloy , homo clerk ot the Thirty-first general as sembly of Missouri , is connected with : ho extensive house of Heidon- loinier Hros. , dealers ill general gro ceries nnd foreign and domestic wines and liquors. The Fitzwilliam broth ers , relatives of Mr. Joim J. 1'ilzwil- iain , St. Louis , are largo cotton mikers in Gatvestoit , as are also the Llnwloy brothers. " NEWSPAPERS. Thd daily newspapers published in 3alvoston nro The News and Journal. DID Nonrs wns established in 18l'J , uid is the morning paper. The Jour nal is an evening paper , both demo cratic.- The News' circulation is equal to that of < all the other papers of the state combined , and , while it is demo cratic , it only supports such men and ncasurcs of the party as it sees lit , I'ho News has a handsome six-story wilding of its own on ono of the prin cipal streets. DRINKS ANI > POLITICS. All the bcor consumed in Texas is 'urnished by St. Louis , in casks , bar rels and bottles. A now drink in Texas is called Hong-Kong. This is made like an ordinary lemonade , except that in lion ofvntor , tea is used. Tlio saloon business is brisk. A saloon in Galveston , known as the "Two Brothers , " owned by the brothers Tiornan , is equal tfc any in St , Louis , and is located'on the prin cipal corner ofi the city. The propri etors were oll'erod this spring 800,000 for it. Politics ill Texas nrc one-sided. Like other stntes with largo demo cratic majorities , it has had enemies within the party. Some of the dem ocratic papers prominent among these- the Dallas Times and the Georgetown Record abuse him. Many assume that ho is n candidate for n third term , nnd charge that ho will only receive the support of infi dels , aloonekccpcrs nnd like persons. His position in the Crisp requisition lias turned many of Crisp's friends against him. Ho is also opposed by these who supported Hubbxrd against him when first nominated. Throckmorton will again bo n candidate for the governorship. Ho who is supported by United States Senator Coke is likely to bo the nom inee. Mr. Coke is the most influen tial democrat in the state. The elec tion will bo in 1882. The governor liolds for two years , but an amend ment making the term four years will bo submitted at that election. THE INDIAN NATION. Passing through the Indian territo ry ho observer is struck with the vastness and grandeur of that coun try , and the lazy nnd indifferent mode of living of its very sparse population. The inhabitants of this territory are composed chiefly of a class of indolent and trifling whites married to half- breed women to keep themselves from starving , and of low and worthless half-breed Indians. Tlio sentimen tality which keeps this country rich in every material resources shut out from civilization and settlement is not founded on anything like wlmt is claimed for it. Tlio Indians should of course bo compensated to n fair and reasonable extent. Any reason able arbitrament ought to bo pre ferred by them to their present mode of existence. Except in isolated cases , living is only "from hand to mouth" with them. The ignorant among them are the dupes and beg gars of a few half-breeds and vaga bond whites who nro allowed to hvo and roam at pleasure in the territory , provided they marry or nro married to a half or full brood Indian squaw , n matter easily accomplished. On the line of the railroad which runs through the territory southwestwardly - wardly two hundred and twenty-five miles , there is scarcely a house to bo scon for miles , except as put up by the railroad for its business. Stock or crops of any kind nro n rarity. The country is an uncultivated waste , and its occupancy by such us will use it for actual settlement , and stock-raising and agriouturnl purposes , seems to bo demanded alike by progress nnd civil i/.ation. THE "BICKU MAN. " In Texas , the writer mot Col. Fits * hugh , ex-doorkoopor of the Washing ton house of representatives , who , it will bo remembered , thought himself a "bigger man than old Grant , " but wasn't. Ho is more voluble in con versation than Grant , but in stature much smaller. Ho is connected with ono of the railroads of Texas , and it may bo said of him that he is out of politics.
