IDE II0. DUMA VOAM KAILROAD.

About a year ago a syndicate composed of New Orleans business men, beaded by S. B. McConnieo, ob. tained a franchise from President Bo- gran, of tbe Eepublie of Honduras, to constrnet a railroad along tbe northern coast of tbat country, from Puerto Cortex to Trrtjillo, a distance of about loO miles. The territory along the projected rosd baa been thoroughly surveyed and the route located.

Presi dent McConnieo himself hss ridden over tbe line, has studied the topogrs pcy of tbe country, and bas announced to bis associates that the road can be quickly constructed at a comparatively small cost per mile. Since the location of this line several Americana bave visited Tegucigalpa and have petitioned tbe government for grants to build branch: lines to different localities in the interior. But President Bogran bas refused all such offers, on the ground tbat the New Orleans syndicate, being tb first to propose the development of tbe nation al resources of the northern coast, is the ssrfeistloi ia -wtoni" all profitable enterprises flowing from tbe completion of tbe coast line should be given by the grateful republic The construction of this road will open to aettlement, ana consequent development, a vast stretch of territory, unsurpassed on the planet for fertility and productiveness. Along the little valleys that run parallel to the coast, the black soil strange as it may appear varies in depth from five to thirty and thirty-five feet. In this rich ground the sugar can attains size and quality nnequaled even on the tropio plains of Tabasco or the smiling fields of Cuba, IIyti or Jamaica.

Mr, Prospero Vidaurretta, a Honduran planter, settled at San Pedro, informed the writer that he can manufacture crude sugar, at a profit, for 2 3 4 cents per pound, while Iadian corn readily returns a yield of from 75 to 100 fold without cultivation, lowland rice 200 fold, and upland from 10 to 130 fold. The 11-tnduranean northern coast rises abruptly from the beach, and at a fow niilea distance attains an altitude of many hundreds of feet above tbe level of the sea. Liberian coffee, which so readily witustauds tue burning tropic winds and the fierce glare of the sun. at tbe Leiiiut ot vuj teet attains its maximum size and quality. The ordinary coffee flourishes at an altitude of from 2000 to 4000 feet above the sea, while the cotton plant, nourished by the superlatively fertile soil, and caresed by the soft, salt im pregnated breezes that blow inland from off the placid bosom of the Caribbean, yields from 750 to 1000 pounds of lint cotton to the acre.

It is no exaggeration to assert that this magic regiou, whete the natural gifts of Providence are 60 profusely scattered, can be made to produce to perfection all the fruits, vegetables and lauts cf the tropics aud semi-tropics. As there are no swamps nor areas constantly overflowed lands, the climate is good, and even emigrants from be cold climes of Northern Europe enjoy excellent health. Tbe syndicate owns hundreds of thousands of acres which it wiii soon throw open to emi grants; tbtts it is certainly safe to assume that in a few years this tropic wilderness will be brought to yield its rich tribute to foreign commerce.

It certainly baa the power to establish a docen of these, shoald it so desire, Washington as great a rigSt to educate and improve as to beautify and adorn tbe national capital. The objection to measures of this kind doibtiess arises from tbe fact tbat Con gress baa, at times, supported unwise and injurious measures under tbe pre tense of tbe pnblie welfare. This is a good objection to any unwise or even doubtful measure that may be pro. posed, but not to one like this, nearly uuanimous'y approved and sup ported. The necessity for a national school of this kind ia universally reo- ogoicod.

This country is notably de ficient in artist and works of art the advantages tbat wonld flow from it are equally recognized; indeed nearly all are agreed as to the necessity and advantage of a school of this kind. Tbe only objection made is that it cannot be legally and consti tutionally done.

They justify, they encourage, nay they recommend ns, to complete the work by the creation of a National Art School.

ISlLHs'lAlt. LOMJlLh CX. There is no question in which New Orleans is more deeply and vitally in (crested than the internal commerce of this country. It bas suffered losses to its trade by the combinations of trans portation companies against it and by unjust discrimination; it has seen its legitimate territory iuvaded and its business carried off by rival towns; it bas been affected in many instances by those very evils which called to the atteution of Congress the necessity for taking some action to regulate and con trol interstate commerce. Hence it was with great pleasure that the merchants and business men of New Orleans, and all others inter ested in the commercial success and prosperity of this city, saw the special Senate committee on interstate com morce coming down bere to prosecute its inquiries and to get the views and recommendations of New Orleans on these It afforded ns an op portunity to bring forward many im portant facts which cannot but exert their influence on the ultimate legisla tion of Congress.

Some very interesting papers were presented to this committee by several of the exchanges and business men. Those who were unable to do thi, who did not prepare reports, will, we hope, do as the committee recommended, get them ready and forward to Washing ton, as it is important to bave the views of the merchants of this city presented strongly and foreibly to Congress. The probabilities point to some legislation on this subject at the approaching session, and what that legislation is whether it will be what we wsnt and to the beat interest of this city will depend not a little on the manner in which New Orleans prcseuts its case and shows what has operated unfavorably to its commerce and hat is necessary to relieve it of the present obstructions. 7 HE nOODLLllg. Tbe conviction of John Casey will relieve New Oileans of another hoodlum who has been a nuisance here for eom years a specially troublesome one, who proved much harder to con vict than most of his tribe, and very nearly succeeded in escaping justice.

The conviction bears evidence of the excellent jury we now bavs, and eu-coursges us to hope for other convictions to follow. Thus the work goes nobly on, and the army of hoodlums is being rapidly reduced; sent op the river to work, some of the worst being already in Baton Iiotige. At this rate our supply cf hoodlums, which was unusually large wben this crusade began, will soon be reduced to a mere handful. In the matter of youthful hoodlums, who were iat becoming as great a nnisance as the elder specimens of this race, it is to be booed the verdicts iu the case of the Malleus will prove a warning to them and convince tin in tbat they cannot annoy quiet citizens and make themselves disagreeable ithout being punished therefor. Whenever gentleman or lady is annoyed by these boys, be can now feel that Le hss tbe right to stop tho annoyance in a very forcible and eicphatic manner.
