A SONANZA IN TEXAS. Witinn a radius ol halt a mile, at Beaumont, Texas oil fields liaVe been discovered rich enough to supply the world.Already the wells in operation yield 5,000gallons a day; and it is believed by experts that when the region is developed it will produce the enormous amount of -00T00Q gallons a day. When it is considered 1 hat this quantity exceeds the whole output of the wells operated by the Standard Oil Company tlie tremendous significance of the recent di.scovtrie.* in Texas is realized.

With this new source of wealth the possibilities of Texas are unan'l iti vvn-tltli anil lUtnil. iiiiiti una in ?i vuitn Jation, as she i> already in size, *he bid# fair lo become the leading State of the Union.
