11 out -Ion Telegraph. Every woiff true, Mr. Telegraph, nud just what tre have often tried to instil into Hie minds of Ihose who have (ho control of the Central load. It has surprised us greatly, that the company is so blind to its own interests as wo see it, in not pushing ahead this road. If capital Is lobe obtained anywhere, wo bcliove that the extension of the Central road to this country, would be the most profit ablo investment that could bo mudo.

Iluild the vond, and I lie people along its roiilo would subsoribo land enough to make nny corporation rich without any profits from the road. A great lo do is being made over tho Great. Northern Railroad by some of the people of Houston nlong the lino of that road. Now, wc do not object to the building up of that road we wish success to every railroad enterprise started in our State, but we do oandidly believo that there is more money in the extension of the Central, than in a half dozen such roads as that proposed through L'ubtern Texas, Thats our opinion. tijy- Col.

Yool Clip of 1867. OW In prepare Wool for Miukcl, nnd where to thip it, nro now questions which llie flock master is asking himself. Ourex-pi ciencc (ells us (hal (here is a great ileal of utonty lout on llie sdirt by wool growers in not putting up llieir fleeces correctly; we, therefore, make the following general suggestions: 1. Tic up each fleece by itself, using four (4) pieces; of twine, which will thus keep Iho fleece from breaking. Sepavsie the dirf, from Iho flccco as much ns possible 8.

It will pay you lo have (he burrs taken from Ihe tleeco beforo shearing. 4. We would urge wool growers to fr-minate the seah from their flocks. For tho bone(i( of sheep raisers wo have imported a lot of Loaf Tobacco, lo supply parties iu such quantities as (hey may need for Ibis purpose, (luce cure (his disease and your flocks and increase become doubly valuable, for il has been proven that tobno-co is conducive to the growth of Wool. 7 lie great eaime of low prices for Texas Wool is Hint so ninny qualities wero mixed in one sack.

To enable the grower, merchant nrspeeu-lncor lo get the full value of their Wool shipped to us, we have opened a ln, gi- mnl Grailing lMnlilisliin.nl, Coder the control of an experienced wool grower, sorter and grader, and henceforth, unless otherwise ordered, we will sort, grade and separate all abipments of Wool 10 our house, and thus sell ench lot on its own merits. We do not hesitate to say (hot Ibis arrangement will prove a gain of twenty percent, to ihe raiser in Texas. Our clinrpes for ibis labor will be one cent per pound. lt is hoped that parlies interested in the development of llie Wool interest of Texas will give na their full encouragement. To meet the wants of Ihe trade, we will keep on hand superior, heavy wool sacks, inet lobaeeo, and sheep shears.
