Under the title of the "Undeveloped
West; or Five Years in :hs Territories" The
National Publishing Company. Of fuiiadsIf
pbis, 10 about to publish series OF sketches
Of the western country; made up Of person.
al adventures and observations by j. H.
Blade, Esqv the western correspondent Of
the Cincinn0ti Commercial. The work will
be protusely illustrated from original sketch
esaud Photographic view OF the sceuery
cities, lands, mines, people, and cur'osities
OF the varions paris Of the country through,
which the author jonrnird. OF the scope
and matter Of the letter press of the volume,
the author tersely describes in his preface
when be says the chapters 1t contains are
simply persousl record of his five years
travel and residences in the new States aud
TerrilOries-wben he went, what he did.
What be saw aud what be- thought about it
Two points Of practicst interest he has
steadily kept 10 view--to give carefully al
ranged facts 10 regard to the lands still open
to settlement; and to correc, number of
popular errors in regard to soil aud climate.
The chapters treating specially on lands iu
Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa, Minnesota, DakoI
TO. Califoruis, Oregon and Texas certainly
ought to aid 10 the fret object; in regard to
the second, the author points out: most Of
the prevailing errOrs-t0 call them by no
harsher name-found 10 numerous land cir
culsrs and railroad reports-and refutes
them by sgeseral statement OF facts
Some OF the chapters of the work, which
have been sent us in advance, show it TO
have been written iH an easy, familiar,
style, and yet with piquancy of drscrip'
ton that makes'ths narrative highly enteI-
tainiug as well rs Instructive.
