They extend (nun North Bast and North West, through the middle of the State, to the extreme South, and include every variety of climate and productions found between those parallels of latitude. The Northern portion is chiefly prairie, interspersed with fine groves, and in the middle and Southern sections timber predominates, alternating with beautiful prai ries and openings. The climate is more healthy, mild and equa ble, than any other part of the country —the air is pure and bracing, while living streams and springs of excellent water ahourd. bituminous Coal is extensively mined, and supplies a cheap atid desirable fuel, being fur nished at many points at $2 to §4 per ton—and wood can be had at ttie same rale per cord. Building Stone of an excellent quality also abounds, which can be procured for little more than the expense of transportation. The great fertility of these lands, which arc a black rich mould from two to live feet deep, and gently rolling—their contiguity to this road, by which every facility is furnished for travel and transportation, to the principal markets North, South, East, West, and the economy with which they can be cultivated, render them the most valuable investment that can be found, and present the most favorable opportunity for persons of industrious habits and small means to acquire a comfortable independence in a few years. Chicago is now the greatest grain market in the world, and the facility and economy with which the products of these lands can be trans ported to that market make them much more profitable, at the prices asked, than those more remote at government rates, as the cost of transportation is a perpetual tax on the latter, which must be borne by the producer in the re duced price he receives for his grain, &ic.
