Buff falo City is accessible for good size steam boats most of the year, and small boats of very light Graught nearly or quite all the year
 By a glance at a map of Arkansas, per sons can see at once the destiny of Buffalo City, situated as it is, at the foot of the Bufa To Shoals, the head of reliable navigation on White river, surrounded by very large ex- tent of fertile settled country, commanding an immense wagon trade west and north-west, from one hundred and twenty-five to one hun. dred and seventy-iive miles, and OH the north one hundred miles, and on the south and south west. from fifty to seventy-fye miles. This vast extent of high, healthy country is unsur.
 
 by spectators, lands are very cheap, proda- l cing wheat corn, oats. tobacco, etc., equalto any part of the United States; and for tue raising of hogs, cattle, horses. mules, sheep, etc. is scarcely to be equaled anywhere, the truth of which is fully demonstrated from tbe fact that emigration, of the most substantial and desirable character, has been pouring | into this region of country for the last few years by thousands, from every part of the info ha emigration will continue unprecedented in almost any part of the globe The wants of 1 this vast country, so rapidly settling up, makes it absolutely necessary that trading point be established at the most accessible point nearest and most convenient to the masses on tho beautiful and ever navgable White river Buffalo City being situated at the foot of the Buffalo Shoals, the head of reliable naviga- tion on White river, is the place selected by nature itself for trading point for that i'm mcnse country Nature has said to naviga- | tors, here is the great Buffalo Shoals: thus far you shall go up this beautiful stream and no farther hence Buffalo City took its name, Had this natural site for city been ludiciousy laid off in lots and sold some years ago, as the present proprietor will do immediately, Il would unquestionably have besn a place by 1 this time of no small note.

Tunstall of Jacksonport, Arkansas, and further, in part by entry in the United States Government Land-Offce, at a heavy outlay of money, is determined to lay it oft | immediately in real city style, fronting the river in convenient size lots and blocks, with wide front row, as well as wide streets and alleys; also, squares for public buildings and promenades, etc., etc. The river being straight, the banks having gradual descent, not subject to cave, with deep water close up to the shore, with the beautiful level rich grounds all above overflow, combined with the beautiful scenery partly surrounding the town and pure spring water gushing out near d thand, and never-failing cold pure healthy wei water to be had in any part of the town, win fine woods convenient, combined with many advantages and conyeniences, with the health fulness of the place, makes, beyond doaDb I the prospects at this point for a city,, fact, far superior to any other point in all this re- gion of country, and inferior to no point on White river, or any other in the State ot AT kansas.
