CORRESPONDENCE.
WABASH VALLEY.
VlScENNEs, Ia, Nov, 1888.


While gazing upon this beautiful 1t
tie Hoosier City, am almost constrain
ed to say, farewell Virginia, forever
If there be garden of Eden in the
Western world, vincennes is situated
in the centre. The town is beautifully
laid off. Situated on the East bank Of
the Wabash river, us miles from its
ontrance into the Ohio, much taste is
displayed in the construction of its
buildings--somewhat after the French
fashion. This, perhaps, is one of the
oldest towns in tho western world. Set
tied by the French in the year 1870 OF
1916, but not until recent years has the
spirit of progress moved them. It's
now rapidly improving, both in PopuIa'
ton and wealth. The country around
aud about the city is beautiful in the ex'
IRENE contiguous to large and beau
,ilul Prairie, several thousand acres oil
which are cultivated as one common
field.
Tho citizens, Judging from what | see,
are full of energy and enterprise. Few
lonfers are tn he seen on the streets.
The town being situated on playground
bordering on the river, should Judge ii
was an unhealthy place, but The citizens
tell me it is extremely healthy, no sick
ness prevailing to any extent at any
time suve the ague, which they consider
no sickness at all. To show you how
Indifferent they are about the ague. |
will relate an incident which came un'
der my own immediate observation on
yesterday, lin company with some Ken
tuckians) while on hunting excursion
We stopped at farm house some Is
miles below here near the river, for the
purpose of obtaining something 10 cat,
for ourselves and horses. We were
kindly welcomed by the old folks
While seated before the FIRE conversing
freely together, our attention was arrest
cd by a low moan. On turning our eyes
whence tho sound came, wo observed
four children between the ages of 4 and
IL, pale, sickly- choking creatures, in bed
On asking the old dame the matter with
them. she replied, "Oh! n0tAin' but the
Agei' While contemplating their
condition, our attention was again ar
rested by a keen, shrill voice from with
ont, echoing the household world
"Dad, O! Dad, make Bill haul a load
of.qsooa schiie I hare my shake !"
Thus, Mr.. Editor, from the mouth of
the Wabash up to this point, every hab'
ita.ion nearthe river or prairie, is a hab-
i,ation of Shakers.
Then, again, lower down the Valley
the milk sickness prevails to some ex.
tent may say to great extent
During the prevalence of this disease,
which proves as fatal as the cholera, un'
less you stall feed your cattle and hogs,
YOU must abstain from the use of such
meats. butter and milk.
This disease. in conjunction with the
Aene, rohs the country Of its charms.
for certainly no country can excel tue
Wabash valley in productiyeness, &c,
with its beautiful Plairies extending AS
far. as the eye can reach, producing. corn
from go to 70 bushels to the acre-feed'
ing hugs sufficient to regulate the South
ern and Western markets. But. alas
fer the country. they're got The Ague.
Yours ANTONIO.
