Prairie du CHEN.

WHO that has ever caught the first glimpse
fof Prairie du Chen, spreading over the dreamy
level landscape that opens between the bluffs
Of the Mississippi, will ever forget the en-
chanting visionl Seen from the Highlands
south of the Wisconsin river, few miles az
ter dining at Patch's, where every traveller
takes dinner, Prairie du CHEN looks more like
some beautiful fiction Of the brain. than like
reality. The town seems "to loom up"
through the "mirage'' of fancy into positive
magnifcence, and vanishes 10 the dim blue
distance, like falling asleep.
The sentinel is still there; our glorious old
flag upon the garrison still futters in the
breeze; the old French "inhabitants" are still
there looking precisely as they looked twenty
years ago-unshaken by the fever and ague-
unmoved by the removal of troops, or the
removal of depusiies. Yankee enterprise yet
stimulates the growth and business of Prairie
du Chen Dousman the pioneer trader of the
northwest, still ,raffics with The Indians, paint
ed and implanted, who paddle there 10 their
slender canoes-and trades fairly and honora-
ably with them, or he would have lost their
confidence and their custom years ago.
10 word, Prairie do Chen. like Day g.
Martins backing, is "constan,Iy on hand;"
and always ,ciN be; garrison or no garrison
And when the country above and around
Prairie du Chen shall be settled as it ,oiU be
and When the inevitable avenues of trade
which nature has almost completed between
Prairie du Chen and Green Bay, shall be
opened, Prairie du Chen will stride into the
foremost rank of western cities. There are
hundreds now living who will wonder and
regret that they could not have foreseen the
future greatness Of Prairie du Chen,

Massachusetts, Fisheries. Some

Massachusetts Fisheries. Some
idea, says the Atlas, of The very ex-
tensive interest Of this Commonwealth
in the fisheries, may be learned from
this fact, that there is employed, this
year, from the port Of Gloucester, I2o
vessels, manned by over 1000 men!-
This fleet is principally engaged in
Maekerel fishing. Gloucester has
probably double the interest in that of
any place in the Union, and it is in fact
becoming the great Mackcrel market
for the country. 1t will be also for
other kinds of fish, particularly for
Halibut. the fishing for which is not
pursued by any other people. About
$500 tons of shipping are employed
from this point alone in the fishing
business, and this business is also quite
important and extensive at the neigh
boring ports of Annisquam and Rock
port.
