It. is - tor the construction of a railwaywhlch, joined to the lengths'alrcady built. will connect the Indian with .tbo SouthPaciflc Ocean. Itlsto run lrom south to north thromh the State 01 south Australia, or through what is called the Northern Territory. The length 0! the line is to be 1,200 miles, and the line isto be constructed on a gains of 31cct 6 inches. and is to be capable of carrying mm: at a. speed of twenty miles an hour, including stoppages. It is estimated to cost £6,000,000 (830,000,000). Tenders are to be invited from Australia, the United States, Great Britain, France and Germany. Eighteen months are to be allowed for the preparation of tenders. The syndicate taking up the contract. will, in Autism lor the ox- pendi‘ture of £6,000,000, be granted territory to the extent of 75,000 acres per mile, or altogether 90.000.- 000 acres. The area is tar larger than the whole of Great Britain and Ireland, or New anland. There is no stipu- lation as to the nationality of the syndicate; consequently the coded territory may be settled upon either by Britishers, Americans, French or Germans. The race must be white. as. according to the laws of the Commonwclath, colored immigration Is forbidden. The line will run, 01 course. through some of the hottest parts of Australia. The scheme has received the approval of the South Austral- ian Parliament, and the Government will at once take steps to bring ,it under the notice 0! capitalists. About 5,000 people live in the land to be averted by the proposed railway sor- cs. cs teem. ‘ Watches, Diamonds and as of all kindsand " , 1.6\-a,1 gift. w. F. McCARTY.

Although the leader of the government at. the pre- sent timc, and the leader of the Li- beral party, I am not. the Liberal party.
