We can assure these friends that waterpower is
abundant throughout Wisconsin, including tho neigh
borhood of Madison We consider that city very ia
vorable location for young Mechanics if they be good
ores So is Rockford, Illinois, where good water

Farmer may possibly blunder in migrating West but
we can hardly see how Mechanic could lose by It.
He can buy OF build there for less money there Is
work enough TO be done aud be can always buy his
bread cheaper there than in this quarter And he Is
under no necessity Of wandering away from Schools
and Churches nor of locating where he must drink

TIE cheapest route from Boston, for enigrants, is
probably by Albany to Buffalo by railroad thence by
steamboat around to Green Boy Saginaw Bay, She.

As TO Land Warrants, We consider them good prop

locating Public Lands; but there is not chance in

Government land is 70 be found. Money is about as
