Benton county is destined to become
an important one. When, in a few
years, this Territory shall have become
settled and the murmuring of her streams
resounds to the hum of her factories, and
the shores of her lakes re-echo the sound
OF civilization and industry, while her
rivers shall bear on their bosom the seeds
of commerce, Minnesota will equal, if
not surpass her elder sisters, New Eng
land. At the present time, our Terrific
ry is in the hands Of those who under

ges; and there seems not one hindrance
to great immigration, which under the

A Trip Miles Down from Saint Paul,
to Little Crow Village, (KapOsia).
After turning the bend about one fourth
of mile below St. Paul. beyond which
the river resumes it's southerly direction,
one side of the stream is lined by high
bluff, entirely concealing the prospect
beyond while the other, sometimes slo-
ping almost to the edge of the water,
discloses some considerable view of the
surrounding country. About midway in
the distance, stands Pigs Eye, which
one year ago might have claimed some
kindred to ST. Paul, but is now left far
behind in the race of improvement. AS
we neared Kaposia the tepees (odges)
of the Indians met our gaze; but a clo-
ser observation, revealed the dwelling
and school house of the Missionary. An
extensive Christian influence is now ex-
erted here.
On an elevated bluff, back of the set
Element, stands an Indian burying ground.
Here, upon a platform supported by
poles and elevated ten feet from the sur
face of the earth, the body is exposed
for eight months after its decease, its on
ly protection being a rough box, the
corpse shrouded in a blanket. By its
side lie all the paraphernalia of life, to
expedite its journey to the spirit land.
From this elevated point, stretches out
region of country, beautiful in the ex-
IRENE; and upon the conclusion of the
Indian treaty, will present inducements
for settlement, which cannot be surpass-
ed. -:.
The country for leagues around st.
Paul, consists of open and wooded prai-
rte, receding from bluff to bluff, like so
many stepping stones to the skies, where
in the dim distance, they at last appear
to meet; while the numerous small lakes
and streams, sparkling in the sunbeams,
and during the warm seasons, losing
themselves amidst flowers, shrubs and
groves, where the hand of Nature puts
to shame that of the cultivator, renders
the scene one of surprising magnificence
and beauty.
The upper portion of Minnesota, is
now attracting considerable attention;
and nearly all the small settlements COM
meneed last summer, will fill up at an
early period. 4 ~ ! 20. lf.i.ii'
