GRAND UFWS AND iriDIARL ItklL.
IiOAD.
,This enterprise has already attracted
considerable attention in this vicinity,
and has enlisted Pittsburgh capital and
Pittsburgh enterprise in its completion.
The citizens of the region traversed by
the road are looking with no little inter
est to its ultimate completion to open to
them the rich stores of our manufactures
as an interchange with their agricultural
Products, their extensive forests,, their
mines of gypsum, iron, copper, &c.
The connection of the railroad under
review with the State of Indiana, via the
Pittsburgh, Ft. Wayne and Chicago rail
road is well known. The State of Mich
igan is less known and understood by
our citizens.
MICHIGAN
This railroad enters Michigan near
Sturgis, in St. Joseph county, and passes
through the village and across the prairie
known as Sturgis. Probably no State in
the 'Union contains a smsller proportion
of the foreign element in its rural popu
lation. It is claimed that the State is
mainly settled by immigration from New
York and from the New ; England States,
and the taate displayed in their public
and private buildings and their general
I
enterprise and energy show that they are
possessed of intelligence and refinement
unsurpassed in the-same area elsewhere
in the country. One feature which cre
ates a favorable impression upon the
stranger, are the long lines of shade trees
upon the common roads. In some cases
the native trees have been left for that
purpose and in others they have been
transplanted, the State making a suitable
deduction from the taxes of every one
who plants a tree or trees upon the road
side.
STURGIS
1 This village is 58 miles North from Ft.
-., Wayne, located upon Sturgis Prairie, and
contains some three thonaand inhabitants.
9
.• '1 ,
John Sturgis, from whom ;the village,
-;,-4.' 2 1 town and prairie takes its name, was born
in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, and has re
' corded .that fact upon Mr immense flag
i; . stone in front of a hotel owned by him.
The Michigan Southern Railroad passes
' , 4 through the town,
and there is a large
' business transacted with the surrounding
:" ; country in merchandise and there are a
: few manufactories here also. Like many
other towns upon the route, the citizens
are expecting a new impetus to mann
', facturing and other enterprises upon the
opening up to them of the_ markets of
- .• t Cincinnati, Pittsburgh, . &c., by the com
' pletion of this road. The offices of the
railroad were at one time located here—
:'Jonathan G. Wait, Esq., editor and
Jrletor of the Sturgis Journal, having
• been for many years a Director of the
• road and at one time, its Secretary.
William Allman, Esq., who re
. i sides -here, also filled the office
• iof Secretary, and Richard Reed,
Esq., President of the First National
. Bank at this place, was formerly Tress
, urer of the Company. General Stough
. l ton, member of Congress, and Major
McLaughlin, at one time resident en
•gineer on the road, reside in Sturgis.
. These gentlemen are all identified with
the history of the enterprise, some of
. ' them from its inception, and Mr. Reed
has on several occasions made liberal ad
; Trances to sustain its fortunes when they
needed such aid.
Immediately North from Sturgis the
I •
, railroad passes over a range of hills rising 1
: . up from the prairies with which they are
1 . i surrounded and make a marked featurein
the landscape. We now arrive at the
fields of peppermint for which this, St.
iJoseph, county is celebrated. The rich
soil of the upland "openings" is said to
be well adapted for its culture, and the
farmers devote many large fields to that
shrub, distilling many pounds of "oil
i peppermint," and it is said to be a profit
able crop.
Seven miles north from Sturgis is the
village of Nottawa, which is one of those
towns which it is expected will possess
considerable importance upon the com
pletion of the railroad; two miles further
northward the "Michigan. Air-Line" rail
: road is crossed, a road designed to shorten
the distance between Detroit and Chicago
; upon the Michigan Central railroad by
I cutting off a detour made by the latter to
the northward, to reach the villages of
Jackson, Marshall ; Kalamazoo, &c.
NOTTAWA PRAIRIE.
1 'Michigan abounds, as is well known,
with prairies limited in extent as compar
ed with those vast tracts in Illinois and
other western States, but equally rich in
soil and susceptible of raising winter
wheat, fruit and other crops which fail
further west. Amongst the richest in
soil and most picturesque in appearance,
is Nottaws Prairie, in. St. Joseph coun
ty, On the north it is bounded by the
St. Joseph river, the luxuriant foliage of
' • the forest trees upon the banks, forming
•• a relief to the otherwise somewhat mon
otonous landscape of the prairie. P.
Marantette, Esq., was the pioneer in this
- vicinity, and now cultivates a splendid
farm on the northern portion of the prat
; rie, with a most beattiful residence upon
the banks of the Bt. Josep
, h. His first
• experience was with the uncivilized na
-1 five Indians, who were at that time the
• sole inhabitants. ' He is now surrounded
numeronevnitilation, with all the
comforts and refinements of the oldest
settled portiqns of thecountry—no traces
of its former occupants remaining. Mr.
2darantettel has - been a member of the
State Legislature. and a director of this
railroad.
srusPost
Is situated just across the St. Joseph from
.1, the estate of Mr. - hiarantette, and is fif
i teen miles north from Sturgis. It con
stains,' about fifteen hundred inhabitants
and a fine water rower. The surround
ing country le well settled and very pro
doctive. Mendon will be an, Important
point upon the line of the railroad.
VICIEBBIIAG
AbOut one thousand , inhabitants
and is twelve miles northviestwardly from
`s Mendon , and about thirteen miles south
T.: of 'Kalamazoo. The country about
'Vicksburg is rich and highly ;cultivated.
Schoolcraft Prairie and Prairie Ronde are
the • westward of this -point, and that
regionn of country will be tributary to
7j. ,this road as that point. Six miles to the
northward from Vicksburg we pass
' 66Austin's Lake," a beautiful sheet of
••', water, with an excursion steamer and
Ili
other attractions for visitors as a place of
resort
RALMAZOO.
This, is one of the most delightful villa
ges in the country. It is situated upon
the Michigan Central Railroad, and con
tains-about twelve thousand inhabitants.
It is located on the Kalamazoo river and
is surrounded by an amphitheatre of hills,
which add much to its beauty. The streets
are broad and well shaded with trees, and
a large square surrounded with fine resi
dences, are amongst its - attractive fea
tures. The State Lunatic Asylum is lo
cated here. It has a fine r track, some
what noted as the place ace
Where Flora
Temple,"the Queen of the turf," was
the first in trotting annals to achieve a
mile in harness in less than 2:20. Many
of the stores and other buildings are con
structed with "Milwaukee brick," several
beds of clay being found upon the east
ern side of Lake Michigan, which produce
the cream colored brick. They are about
to add greatli , to the water power of the
river at this point, by the construction of
a race beginning some three miles above,
which will give a fall of some eighteen or
twenty feet. Beside the Michigan Cen
tral Railroad, there ie already a railroad,
via Allegan &c.. is Grand Rapids, and
another southward, connecting with the
Michigan Southern at White Pigeon. The
Kalamazoo and South Haven Railroad,
connecting Kalamazoo with Lake Michi
gan, only torty miles distant, is in pro
gress of constitiction, and one half will
be completed In November.
At Kalamazootesides Joseph Lomax,
Esq., editor and toprietor of the Kala
mazoo Democrat and the first President
of the railroad. James A. Walter, Esq.,
Post Master at this place and President
°Me Kalamazoo and South Haven Rail
road, is also a director In this railroad.
Israel Kellogg, Esq., and others inter
ested in this improvement are residents
of Kalamazoo.
Eleven miles to the northward from
Kalamazoo, near the village of Plainwell
on Gun river, the road crosses the Kala
mazoo, Allegan and Grand Rapids Rail
road, which bears off to the westward,
while the Grand Rapids and Indiana road
continues almost due north, passing the
villages of Martin's Corners, Whitney ,&c.
WAYLAND.
This village contains about one thou
sand inhabitants, and is situated twenty
six miles north from Kalamazoo. W.
White, Esq. ' formerly sheriff of Allegan
county, and his son, W. H. White, are
actively interested in this improvement,
and reside at Wayland. The region
north from Wayland to Grand Rapids
passes through a fine farming region, the
land being known as the "heavy tim
bered," producing beech, maple, elm,
ikc. Near- Grand Rapids it strikes the
renowned "plaster beds" —mines or quar
ries of gypsum, these beds are of great
extent, and besides proving a source of
wealth to this region. The transporta
tion of gypsum, as well as the calcined
plaster, will be a source of great revenue
to the rtAlroad. Messrs. White and God
frey are proprieters of extensive beds of
gypsum which are upon the line of this
road at Grand Rapids: They are also
deeply interested in the railroad.
GRAND RAPIDS.
This city is situated upon tho Grand
River, thirty miles east from its entrance
to Lake Michigan at Grand Haven. The
Grand River is navigable to this place,
where it is obstructed by a succession of
falls, which gives the place about as much
water-power as can be utilized for many
years, if not for all time. The Detroit
and ilwaultee railroad crosses the Grand
Rapids and Indiana at this place. The
town is quite pleasantly located,
river running through a valley with
ample room on each bank for manufac
turing and business purposes, while a
ruse of ground back from the river on
the left bank, furnishes space for private
resldences churches, etc. Already this
elevation is improved by the citizens who
have houses, all of them neat and pleas.
ing to the eye and some of them elegant.
The_most conspicuous structure which
strikes the eye of the stranger on entering
this town is the "Union School House,"
one of those beautiful edifices for learning
for which this State is noted. It stands
like a beacon to assure all who see it that
the future is to be provided • for, by the
education of the youth;- - The most com
mon building material is the cream col
ored "Milwaukee" brick, and some of
their churches, stores and other buildings
would adorn any city. One block of
stores has front of Gypsum, the beau
tifully variegated snrface of which would
make the most ornamental building ma
terial in the world, if it was sufficiently
durable. The Superintendent of the
railroad and assistant to the Chief En
gineer, Mi.-J. L. Shaw, has his office at
this place. The Land Office of the Com
pany,
presided over by the Hon. Wm. A.
Howard, is also located here.
A description of the munificent land
grant by the Government to this road and
of the country to the north of Grand
Rapids will form the subject of the next
communication.

far SCHENCK'S PITLEIONIC
bYIII,P. SEAWEED TONIC AND
MANDRAKE PILLS will cure Consumption
Liver Complaint and Dyspepsia; if taken accord-
Ing to directions. They are all three, to be taken
at the sometime. They cleanse the stomach, re
lax tne liver and put itto work; then the appetite
becomes good; the food digests and makes good
blood; the patient begins to grow in flesh; the
diseased matter ripens into the lungs, and the
patient outgrows the disease and gets well. This
is the only way to cure consumption.
To these three medicines Dr. J. H. Schenck, of
Philadelphia. owes his unrivaled success In the
treatment of pulmonary Consumption. The Put
motile Syrup ripens the morbid matter in the
intim nature throws it off by aweasy expectoram
Bon, for when the phlegm or matter is ripe a
slight cough will throw it off, and the patient has
rest and the lungs begin to heal.
To do this, the seaweed Tonic and Mandrake
Pills must b e ire ely used to cleanse the stoach
and liver , so that the Pulmonic Syrup a d
the
foudwal make good blood.
Schenck's Mandrake Pills act upon the liver,
removing, all obstructions. relax the owes of the
gall bladder, the bile starts freely and the liver
is soon relieved; the stools will show what the
Pills can do; nothing eve
e
has r bee n invented x
cept calomel (a deadly po. son amich Is very dean
gerous to use unless with great care,) that will
unlock the gall bladder and Mandr a ke secretions
of the liver like Scheock's Pills.
Liver Complaint Id one of the most prominent
:tenses of Consumption.
Schenck's Seaweed Tonic is a gentle stimulant
and alterative. and the alkali in the Seaweed,
which this preparation is made r/i, assists the
stomach to throw out the gastric Juice to dissolve
the food with the PLIADOLIIC Syrup. and it is made
into good b.ood without fermentation or souring
in the stomach.
hy
The great reason why psicians do not cure
Consumption is, they try to do too much' they
give medicine to he ct i c cough, to stop chills, to
stop night sweats fever, and by so doing
they derange the whole digestive powers. lock.-
Big up the secreLens, and eventually the patient
sinks dies,
Dr.
Dr. Schenck, in his treatment , does not tryto
stop a cough, night sweats, chills or fever. Re
move the cause, and tee) , will all stop of their
own accord. No one can be cured of Consnmr a
Bon, Liver Co Dyrpepals, Catarr
C on,
Ulcerated Throat, unless the liver an
stomata are made healthy.
U a person has consumption, of course the
unge in some way are diseased, either tubercles,
abcesses, bronchial irritation,pleura adhesion,
or the lungs are a mascot infl ammation and fast
deviling. In such cases what must be done? It
is not only the lungs st omac h wasting, but it is
the whole body. The and liver have lost
their power to make blood oat of foal. Now tne
only chance is to Mae Dr. Schenck's three medi
clues, which wltl bring up atone to the stomach,
the patient will begin to wantod

it will diges
