ISs~ We like TO see people contented and
happy, and we like to hear them speak
hopefully and admiringly oftherown homes
We know those who deprive themselves Of
one half Of the happiness of their lives, by
inddlsing in restless complaining spirit.
1 They never find the best place-their home
is never hall SO good as some spot at dis
tance-they fnd this thing and that thing
70 complain OF, while some imaginary Eden
away Oh, they know no: where, is eve,
dancing before their minds eye. and lead
them oaward--but their Eden is neve,
found Go as far as they may. i! is sill
ahead, or they have left it far behind
Such people never make good or proftable
members Of society, for the never find the
place that is worth improving to any ex-
tent, beyond the bare demands of necessity
But we are running beyond our intent.
The editor Of the Monroe (Green Co }
Sentinel has been making short trip into
the country, and returns 10 his sanctum
perfectly delighted with the beauty and
fertility Of the county in which he has
made his home. Hear him talk

We feel confident, that as a whole, this is
! the best county OF land in thcwest Springs
Of the purest water abound, and streams
put out from them watering the whole land
winding their way amid beautiful undula-

scenery is so diversified that the eve is re-

beauty and loveliuess of our scenery, our
sensations arc all the while pleasant and
delightful. The heart bounds in response
to the varied interest awakened in the mind
and we feel quite at peace and happy in
the enjoyment Of SO much loneliness, rich
ness and beauty"
That is all very well for our Monroe
brother, but we think that Kenosha Coun
/ ty IS little bettcr--a little nearer to the
picture we lave painted for our Eden.
! We TOO, have been a short way into the
country, and have been delighted with the
sights We have seen. The numerous large
fields offspring wheat just starting into YER
dancy give promise Of The bountiful harvest
that is to cone the broad praires just
dressed in their fresh green robes look
smooth and bright enough for the dancing
green Of all the fairies and nymphs Of hea-
then lore--the groves and forests that skirt
The glowing prailies or stand like islands
in sea Of green, just putting forth their
Tiny leaflets or swelling buds, take many
colors in the sunny CLEAN of mellow light,
while here and there, through wood and
Grove, the white blossom of the hawthorn
and wilI-plum, cluster like wreaths Of
snow.
These are few Of the prominent points
in our kenosha landscapes. If fairer or
richer, are to be found, anywhere, We have
not seen them, and SO well satisfied are We
that we care but Title about seeing them
Lei our farmers have few more years to
improve, aJorn bcauify their homestoads,
and We will put Kenosha against the who'll
West, for beauty Of landscape, and richness
and beauty Of farms.
We took pains in several places to ex-
anime closely the prospect for fruit. Peach
trees are everywhere, blossoming very full,
and promise now to yield abundantly their
delicious fru;;. Pears are also blo>s )ming
full Apples are not yet in blossom, but
buds are profusc. and from present appear
ances viii be plenty.
