Srecial Correspondence of Tbe N, T. Tribune. St. JobEPH, Mo., July 27, 1SC6. Except tbe vegetables are earlier and more abundant, and that one is a little nearer fruit np3 Jtfeiv-Yorlc newspapers, I do not find a greet deal of difference between the civilization of Nebraska and that of Colorado. Omaha and Denver are places cf about the same size the IauefTprobably. belter I built of ihft two. From this lime on, the former will in crease more rapidly, but when ihe rail read reaches Denver, Iiimagihethe bal ance will be resiwt'J. Tile people of Omaha are convinced thai, their place will be another Chicago; and,: as thev see 600 buildings going up this season, we cannot so much wonder at their great expectations. M They certainly have a bfcautilii location if the Missouri JJ.iver were to be depended upon. The cres cent hills, open toward the east, incloses a high, favorable shelf of land, upon .which the city can spread for some tuae to come. Jt is three miles across to the Iowa hills, and the pictures4ue town of Council BlufiV, at their feet, so that they who reside.in the higher j)ari of Omha enjoy a muih troader and ra&r beautiful view than can be had from any other place cn the Missouri. ' - ' '- " I devoted the first 24 hours to absolute rest, after my journey across the Plains. Moreover, the weather wa? truly Afri can in its dry, intense heat, , making sight-seeing so much of a task, that I de serve some credit for seeing anything be yond what the hoiel windows allowed. In the pleasant ccmpany of Gov. Saunders and Mr. Frost, of the Facific Railroad, I visited the bight cn which the ' Capitol stands, the sulpher springs, and the ex tensive shops and works which, the rail road company has erected within thepasl six months. What the latter has accom plished i3 really amazing. There is now rail enough enhand to reach Cottonwccd, 100 miles beyond Fort Kerney, several splendid locomotives are waiting to be called into service, the manufacture of cars has 'commenced, and the grandest basis is already laid for carrying cn the business of the road. The ties, mostly brought down from. the Upper " Missouri whether of pipe, elm or cctton-wood, are burnetiaed to render them durable. Some idea of the enormous, expense of building the road may be obtained from the statement, that each tie,, when put down in its place, has cost the company from one and a half to two dollars ! The cost of bringing railroad iron, loco motives and machienry to Omahq. is also very great, as there is no rail connection with the East. None of the lines through Iowa will be completed before nexi Sum mer. .,':.: The same process which I had noticed in Kansas tbe gradual restoration of forestsmay be (observed here. The hills and valleys around Om.h, where ever they have been protected from fire, are rapidly being, clothed with timber. Clumps of coltonwood and evergreens sometimes small groves of the former h7e been planted around the farmhous es, which are built in dips and hollows of the boundless grassy waves of the land scape. The country 'is one of the most beauti ful I ever looked upon. A . litile .more sandy, perhaps than Kansas, but equally fertile, it presents the same general fea tures. I am more than ever struck with the "great difference betweep this region and that to the east' of the Mississippi. Here, without very bold or prominent forms, there is none of the werrisom mo notony of the prairie, as in Illinois ; no unsightly clearing?, ragged limber, or swampy tracts, as in Indiana and Ohio; but Nature has given the smoothness and finish which elsewhere comes from long cultivation, and in twenty years from now both Kansas and Nebraska will ap pear to be older than any other States west cf the Alleghanies. They have lit tle "of the new, half-developed, Ameri can ,air about them ; but suggest some region of Europe, from which war has swept away the inhabitants. , I crossed to Council Bluffs, which has an ancient substantial appearance, con trasted -vith Omaha. The people insis ted that their rolling praries, behind the bluffs, were even finer than those of Ne braska whicVis scarcely possible. They (the people) have just awakened to the necessity cf annexing themselves fo the business world, and are now laboring to hurry the railroad through from Boons- borough. Some day, perhaps, the Mis souri may leave the Omaha side of the valley and come back to them ; at pres ent, their distance from the steamboat andings is a great drawback. The set tling of Montana, nevertheless, has giv en a new impulse to all ;he towns on the river. No less than 60 boat3 have gene up to Fort Benias this season. On Monday morning I took the steam er for Plattsmouth. some 25 or 30 miles elow, by the river. I should have fre erred the land journ ey, but for a heatxX 102 degrees in the .shade, a wind like a urnace blast, and stifling dust. While the boat was in motion, a barley endura ble temperature was produced, and I en- oyed, here and there, seme lively glimp ses of valleys on the. Nebraska side, that of the Piatt, especially being : suberb. Plattsmouth is nearly a mile below the junction of the rivers a pleasant LutJe place .of -a thousand inhabitants. Noth ing the heat prevented me from spen ding the rest of the .day and evening very agreeable there.. On Tuesday to Nebraska , City 40 miles further, by the river. There is little to note, cn the way except the end less changes cf the current, cJdihg hun dred of acres to the meadow son oco side, and undermining cotton wocd forests on the other. Nebraska City is not seen to advantage frora the river, to which it pre sents its narrowest side, the chief portion cf the place which has seven or 'eight ihcusand inhabitants lying ia lha rear cf the bluffs., It is an active, lively. town, in spite' cf a predominance cf the Mis 27, 1866, souri-Secesh element", as I am informed. I found a very comfortable notel, and was indebted to an intelligent German physician for a driva around the bights toward evening. The heat was still my great torment. 'There was no boat down the river Wednesday, and I had an- engagement at Brownville, 25 miles distant, I was obliged to have dealings wkh a livery stable. The extreme of extortion in thi3 had been reached, Iirnagmed, ia Kinsas. I was .mistaken. For tbe team I . hired (driven by an ex-rebel soldier) I was obliged t3 pay at the rate cf eighty five cents per vxih ! ; Tliis is doubb Cj'oraJo and treble California prices. I was v.u able to resist the outrage, for the livery men of Nebraska City have a mutual agreement to swindle strangers, and do pot interfere yith each other's opera tions. This is one of tbe disadvantages of travel in tbe West. We are told that competition regulates prices : it doe? not; On the contrary, combination keeps them up. No people are so fleeced and flayed as curs. The law offers n3 protection, because our politicians fear to offend any portion of the voting classes. "They" manage things differently iirFrance." " Neither the .consciousness., of having been imposed upon (a mean, disagreea ble sensation), nor' the stifling heat of the day, could prevent me from enjoying to the full the magnificent country 1 trav-' ersed. During the five hours I was up on the road I never' lost the 'keen sense of surprise ahd admiration, which I, felt on climbing the first rise of land after leaving NebraskaCity. The wide, bil lowy green, dotted all over with golden islands of harvest; the hollows of dark, glittering maize ; the park-like , clumps of timber along the course cf streams ; the soft airy blue of the distant undula tions these were the materials which went to the making up of jvery land scape, and cf which, in their sweet, har monious, pastoral beauty, the eye never grew weary. Not even when the. sun burned with the stupefying fierceness cf j noon, and the vegetation seemed to crisp and shrivel ia the firey south-wind, did I wish to shorten the journey. Brownville is a small, but pretty town, with a.&2ci,ded New-England atmosphere. By the time I reached it, I had decided that this should be my last day of mere sight-seeing, and my last evening of lec ture, in such a temperature. I turned a way from the enticements cf Pawnee, and other interior districts, and resolutely set my face toward home. There was no boat the next day, but. a 'stage for St Joseph (between hO and 90 miles dis tance) the same evening consequently a splendid moon, with neither heat; cr dust, for a considerable portion of the way. At 11-o'clock I said good-bye 'to the friends who had made my short stay so pleasant, and, making a virtue cf an inevitable fact,, decided that the night wa3 too beautiful to be spent ia slumber. The records of the United States Land Office at Brownville shows that 71,000 acres were entered ia the district during the quarter ending June ,30. As lo'thirds of this amount were taken by actual set tlers as homesteads a3 ths. other dis tricts of the Territory shows very nearly an equal growth, and as the business .cf the present quarter, so far, keep-e peace with the last, it is easy to estimate the increase cf population for the year.. It cannot be reckoned at less than 15,000, making the present population cf the Territory abou: 75,000. When the sp'en did agricultural capacities cf the country are better understood, the ratio of immi gration will increase. Nebraska car.r.ct much longer be kept out cf the Union by A. J.'s cne-man-power. The night-journey . wa3 delicious. There was no other passenger, and I rode with the driver,1-a Unijn scldier from Massachusetts (how ..different from ray Rebel cf &e .day before f) fcr the sake of society..' The meadows, thickets, groves and gram-fields' near at hand were clearly revealed ia the moonlight, but beyond then the scenery melted into a silvery indistinctness. The sius cf dawn came only to soon, for whh th? first light cf day I knew that the dowyi freshness of the air would bs lost. I still had an entire day of heat before me. We -stepped for breakfast at a place called Rulo (the true spelling wculd be Boxikcn, afteT ths first french- sr.tier), and then pushed onward to. the Kashas line. Across a tottcm cf almcit mand ible' fertility, then a ferry over the beau .liful Nemaha River, and we left Nebras ka behind us.' An" Indian' Reservation! came next, and the sipht cf two' railv-1 JressfiJ squaws ca' hcr?el act, arJ tw.l N0.13, ' ; , j i " -' 1 ; naked boys trying to catch a peny, sjt'mr ed to give a totally different character to the'scenery.

Viliagj tha sure sign cf permanent occupation ars springing up hsr'a and there, neat,' sub stantial farm-houses are taking 'thV plica cf the original cabins, and h-iJges ' cf Osage orange are gradually "'creeping around the broad fields.

Travelling all day in' a heat "cf "mprs thaa 100 degrees :n the shade the sev enth day of such aa extrema tempariura I hailed our approach to EIyccJ;"cpp9 site St. Joseph, with inexpressible relief. During theafterncca we met agreat many emigrant wagonj. carrying, "peer whites" from' Missouri," Kentuokvj 'and Tennesse, to lands of better promise.
