To those whose years have been mostly spent
On the prairies, trip on the luke affords Il |
change in many respects, both pleasant aud IL |
strucsi7c. ltis common practice for onr peo-
pie to visit Chicago. both on business and for
pleasure, but in most cases the line Of wharf
Michigan bounds the line Of their desires, and
to 70 beyond, would be out Of the usual voca-
ton Of travel. This state of things cannot al
ways continue, and the railroads must Weld in
rart to the attraction Of the Swelling waves Q!
his great inland sea, upon whose bosom is
borne so much Of the products Of the North
west and SO little Of the tide of human travel.
1t cannot be expected that the great human
tide Of travel will again be lurcd back to the
uncertainty Of the winds and wave, but for II
rarieiy, Tor d summer pleasure trip, comuacn'l
IT'S to the deck of the ample steamer as she plo"-s
through the clear water Of the beautiful lake.
Having desire to embt!lish our new home
with j few thousand OF native everyreens. We
stepped on board Of the "Everg7ecn City,"
Capt, Chamberlain, on the Collingwoad Line Of
steamers, and stopped ut this place to rcconnoi-
ter. 4 bead wind made us late in the morning,
in rcaching Milwaukee, and while tho steamer
was taking on five hundred barrels of pork, ne
had some hours in which to examine the CITY.
Business appeared exceedingly dull; there vas
but little shipping in port, and we saw but cnc
vessel loading viii, wheat. OF several speci-
mems Of wheat that We examined, re could not
perceive that it was any way supcriorin plump
ness Of berry to our l!lino!a wheat at The same
time it was much better cleaned, and to this
may be attributed the claimed superiority of
the Milwaukee wheat, over that Of Chicago. 1t
is Shame and reproach that our TURNER'S do rot
send their wheat tn market in better condition.
Most Of it goes to the railroad. direct from, the
thrcsher, without further cleaning, while our
Wisconsin utlrhbofs run theirs through Il:
