With the firm belief that Captain James D. Frazier of the steamer Aus- terlitz would have something to say con- cerning the mouth of the Brazos and the river to Velasco that would moke very interesting reading, a representa- tive of the World ealled on him on board the steamer this morning and was most hospitably entertained. The reporter asked th if ho wasat all surpr present depth of water ove his opinion of the river. said: “Indeed, Imay sn much surprised and highly find such denth of water of the viver. T eonsulted my book, the West India Pilot, issued scveral yo: ago by the Lords’ Commissioners of the Admiralty of London, after receiving orders to” proceed to Velasco at the mouth of the Brazos, and found that there were only eight feot of water over tho bar. I naturaily concluded that [ would be compelled to load outside. and I dreaded it Imagine my surprise and delight when I came inside the jetties and over the bar drawing 14 feetGinches at very low tide. A measurement dis- closed” the fact that there was at least seventeen feet of water over the bar when I crossed it. As far as the river from the mouth to Velaseo is concerned, 1 never saw a better in my life, and I have entered nearly all the ports of the world. The river'is wider and in every ws stter adapted o the needs of commerce than the Tyne, the Thames, the Clyde or the ports of Rotterdam or Amsterdam, which it ve much resembles, but which are not nearly so nice to enter, so April 8: oil genial captain ¢d to find the the bar and Tho captain 1was very delighted to t the mouth convenient or so safe as the Brazos. Tho differen n favor of Velasco as a safe and converient port is as fifteen absolutely no obstruc tions to contend with. \We came up the iver most of the way at full speed and if a vessel should hitppen to strike the banlk at a bend it is impossible to hurt it inany way for they are all soft mud. is The width is not only greater than I anticipated and greater than most of the great ports of the world, but is of sufficient width to be cminently pract cable for all the commerco of this rreat western country and possesses possibilities for an immenso trade. Your banks all the way to the mouth areus fine as I ever saw and you can build wharves from Velasco to the Gulf and accommodato the shipping of a continent. 'In so far ur sen connec- tions are concerned you are fixed as well as any port on earth” and all you need now are the rail connections to bring you the products for export and a great City at this point is absolutely assuved.” Thus talked a man who has been over all the world and seen nearly every port and whose judgment in matters of this kind is as sound as that of any man's, The Austerlitz wi cured through the crprising firm of Ross, Howe & Mer- row, ship brokers and agents for the Gulf Ports Steamship Line, who have of- fices in New Orleans, Galveston, Mo- bile, Penzecola, and now, last but not t, Vel 1d who do perhaps tho largest business and handle more vessels than any cther firm on the gulf coast. The v 2L is now being loaded with cotton and the cotton will continue 10 ar- rive over the Velasco Terminal until her rgo is complete Other charters for vessels are now being arranged for and cotton, grain and other products will continue to leave Velasco for foreign ports. 00 —_—— It Worked Wonders, The following is un extract from a letter of Rov.

Sidne; in Memb The citizens of Sidney, Neb., will be much interested in itho followiug order issued yesterday by General Brooke: “In accor- Qanco with telegraphic instructions from the headquarters of the army, dated April 11, 1502, company G,Twenty-iirst infuntry, 1s relicved from duty at Fort Randall, S.

When tho order was issued a short time ago transforring the four com- panies and band now stationed at Fort Sid- ney to New York, the order to take effoct on or'before May 1, much speculation was in- dulged in ana considerable anxiety exp enced by the people'of Sidney over the re- port that tho post was to ho abandoned, Iufluences were at once set 1o wors to pre- vent the carrying out of the project, und although much opposition was met with from milicary sources it soems that the fight has been as successful us was tha one made two years ago, when @ similar attempt was mado t0 abandon Fort Sidnoy. “I'he reason given out in army circles for avandoning the post is that it is now tho fixed policy of the War department to abandon uil the outlying small posts as quickly as possible and ostablish the regular army posts near tho large cities, whero the forces may be readiiy utilized in cases of riot, and where also they may be au ouce put upon trains iu good sized bodies for transportation to aty point where th 3 vices may bu needed, without experiencing the delay that is unavoidable under the pre- seut system of waiting for detached cow- 35 YEARS.
