SHAWNEE MISSION, Kansas,
December %, 1854.
This Territory, much as it has been
commended, has yet been undervalued.
l have seen much Of it during two trips
into the interior, and some shorter ex-
cursions, and have heard more. In re-
gard to the fertility Of its soil, and the
beauty Of the country, as well as its dry,
bracing and bealthful climate, it is un-
surpassed by any region under the sun.
Its beautiful river bottoms sometimes Of
timber and sometimes of prairie, and
containing thousands Of acres in one lev
el, unbroken table, with rich black soil
from three to twenty-five feet in depth,
would make Pennsylvania farmer laugh
with pleasure-its fertile upland prairie,
not monotonous like the prairies of Hi
nois, but gently undulating SO as to re-
lieve the eye and vary the view with its
occasional hollows, ravines, and streams,
with now and then hill Of beautiful lime
stone-its magnificent natural roads,
where you might drive three minute
horse at the top of bis speed anywhere
without taking him up for forty miles at
time, except at the crossing of streams
its abundance of game, especially turkeys,
squirrels, prairie chickens, and coveys of
patridges, tame as domestic fowls; and in
the west, its deer, buffalo, and antelope
its extraordinary climate where every
body can live but the doctors-its mild
and genial winters, aud the rush of pop
ulation, wealth and enterprise, that is
pouring into it, in view of its future des-
tiny, all couspire to make it truly prom
iscd land for the farmer, the mechanic,
and indeed for every one except those
kind of people who have neither means
or industry, and expect to live by their
wits upon the labor of others. These
kind of people invariably go back dissat
isfed. / can not help thinking, as l
travel over it, and reflect on its future,
that if all the people of the States could
know it aswe know it, there would be hun
dred thousand souls poured in before the
summer was over. The railroad now max
ing and completed to Franklin. will soon be
brought to our border, and we shall then
be within three or four days of New York
and Philadelphia. Thousands Of people
viii then wake up-fnd our lands in
creased to tenfold their present value,
