They are both high and rolling on the surface,

very deep and luxuriant soil. The country is every

the intention OF Missouri in particular If not Of the

Therefore, it Is to the mutual interest Of emgrants

By the late Indian treaties the negotiating tribes

States government, in the enjoymen, Of their hunt

them to affirm its obligations, with their acts.
Emigrants will go in companies, as many az they
can-the more the better and merrier; and locate
in neighborhoods as near and numerous a. possible
the larger, the safer-stake out their claims and
make their improvements, and they need entertain
no fears Of moestation from the government autho-

constructed and arrAnged in such a manner +,
as to gain every advantage Uf all things, that in
any way, conduce to hea tn and comfort; A
few days since, with some friends, we visited
the place. and were kindly shown, by the pro.
prietor, the various arrangements and appur-
tenances of the establishment. We were
much pleased at the neatness and almost
mathematical order, that prevails throughout
every de department.. The baths are admra bly,
arranged, and are indeed most desirable
luxury. The bill of fare, is just such as
sensible person could look upon with hearty
appetite. The exercises and amusements
are physically and mentally, of the most lie.
gitimate order. The grounds, gardens and
walks, are tastefally laid out and in due
course of natural growth, will he highly orna-
mental and pleasant. Throughout, the ar
rangements indicate the most cultivated taste
and judgment. and the most stuGous regard
for the welfare and happiness Of the patrons
Of the establishment.
As to the intrinsic merits of the water cure
practice and it's claims upon our attention,
we can of course say nothing; but this much
We can say, that If there be remedial virtues
in it, and high authorities attest them, DR..
Pease, the proprietor Of this esta blishment is
the man to develop them, and his patrons will
ever enjoy, to the full extent, whatever of
good may be derived from water cure treat
ment. The great advantages he has secured
in locality, the admirable constructions of hi
buildings. the superior quality OF wafer affor-
ded by his I, untans, anu his own experience,
must always maintain TOR his house. a reputa-
