From the Prairie Farmer.
The "NCw purchnsc," Iowa.

My Dsar Sir
| am located in Wappello county, which
is situated in the purchase lately made
from the Sac and Fox Indians. This
country has just been oIganized by our
legislature. Our first election for officers
takes place in April at which time our
first court will be held. came out here
from Lee county, last May, at which time
the whites were permitted to take pos
session Of the land just then vacated by
the Indians. At that time there was not,
a white settler in all this region, excep,
those connected with the Indian Agency;
there was not an improvement excep, a
few Immediately round the Agency and
at the trading houses. The country was
a wilderness, inhabited BY savages and
wild beasts. One short year has elapsed
and this county contains comparatively
dense population, and the axe and the
pillow have converted its rich plains into
cultivated fields, and the log cabin Of the
white man has taken the place of the
,cih-e-up Of the Indian. The magma
lion can scarcely realize the wondrous
change that has taken place in the short
space Of ten months.
Ii is a delightful country. The prairie
and timbered land are nearly cqualized.
The former are sufficiently diversified by
undulations, having soil unrivaled in
fertility. The country abounds in coal,
limestone, and excellent timber. l, IS
well waiered. and The Des Moines, pass.
ing diagonalIy through the country, af-
fords extensive milling privileges, and is
navlgablc for few months in the year
| wish you could have made i, convent
ent TO pay US visit, for am convinced
that you have not passed through finer
country in your travels in the West.
This is the garden spot Of Iowa. The
north cannot compare with it, either IN
variety OF scenery, fertility of soil, or
mildness Of climate.
We all went into ciai6, making. The
first day of May last being the time when
the whites were permitted to enter upon
the land, at u o'clock of the night precc.
ding that day, every man was stationed
on his claim, ready TO mark it ont; and
when that solemn hour sounded, such n
scene of activity as ranspired in the for
ests and prairIes of this country, was new
or before witnessed. A thousand axes
resounded--a thousand sturdy arms wei-
tel ihem--and there was no, a nook nor
corner tina, was not alive with enterpri.
sing and determined men, bent upon ma.
king for themselves II home. In one
night the country was settled. The wand
of magician could not have been more
potent, and the teeth sown by old Ducal.
ION did not yield a quicker harvest. The
last rays Of the setting sun shonc upon I
wilderness earliest light beamed up
on civilized community.
Yours truly,
WM. DEWEY.
