Crow river is of sufficient depth to admit of rafting. Great quantities, t of fire-wood 'are annually taken by this meats to differen't yoints on the .sippi, and Bold at remunerating prices. The different kinds of wood are Oak, and Zilaple. The prairies are generally high and rolling, coßsecinently airy. The soil is a dark alluvial, with n slight admixture of sand ; a wise provision of nature, for when the eoil is turned uplind exposed to the direct, rays of the sun, the particles of sand'absorb the heat Which is dispensed in protecting' and nurtur ing vegetation during the coal hours of night.

In. view of all these facts, .set forth with no othei ob ject than to give correct information, should it not induce ; the hardy fainter of your good old Keystone State to come out here? ilia honest face and industrious band would soon give a home view to these ~wilds, pleasingly refreshing.
