Editor Home I
We have, really get home again after
an absence of near four months, a fact
we forgot to mention in former number ;
and glad we are to see our beautiful
prairie home, and breathe the pure ex
hilerating breath of verdure and flowers,
take our accustomed rambles, and catch
the wary fish from the purling stream b
fore our door. , Since leaving this favor
ite spot last fall, we have assumed sev
eral characters, and have done various
and sundry matters aud things too nu
merous to mention. Among others how
ever, we will name the fact that we were
so simple as to claim oar seat in the Re
publican Legislature Of Nebraska, and
were beatan back by a little Dutchman
only about half our size. We think wo
roust have labored under temporary aber
ration at mind at . the time, and the next
two moves prored it to our satisfaction;
viz: first we tried to cross the , broad
prairies between here and Omaha in a
fierce snow'stoim and nearly perished,
and finally being etuck half way'. The
next worst thing was to suppose wo' could
'swap'f with the Pawnees without more
than the profits stolen. -We tried it be

and returned to our, old tripod, a wiser,

The following questions liate been
asked ns through mail, and we Cod iho
Echo .the most , corvenient medium
through which to reply, thus saving the
labor of or score of letters'. v
Isyour locality healthy? w " '
As much so ns any region in the Uni
ted States, as there is no prevailing dis
ease,, and at the present, not a sick per
son we know of in the whole region.
"How long since the first settlement?"
, Dr. C. A. Ilein-y built the first house
in this settlement less than three J cars
ngo.
What is the quality of the eoil ?-
. A brown sandy loam, very fertilo and
exceedingly eusy of cultivation ; with
6ubstratu of clay five feet thick, and
eight fcefsandvthen youjstriks the wa
ter in gravel.
"Ilavo you good water ? "
As fine, cool, nnd clear from wells 12
to 15 feet deep, ns was ever tasted. Al
so fine clear creeks, with quick cur
rents and sand and gravel beds.
'Doyou produce good crops there? "
Yes. ' Corn, wheat, aa, rye, barley,
potatoes, and all sorts of vegetables and
roots grow to perfection. For melons
and other vines, the fruit is almost
spontaneous ; we nevsr saw so sweet
grown. .. Corn, wheat or other grains are
produced equal in crop to Icwa or. Illi
nois. ';
"Howl ong are your winters? "
"We have about three mccths cold
weather, of icn not snow enuugh for
sleighing in winter. Our stock that is
not worked are turned out nnd'ret their
own living and havebeen fed nothing
fcr the two winters we have been aere.
"What are thechanes forsetlers? " ' ;
First rcte. Thereare thousands of
the finest farm claims all nround'us,
Korth nnd South. Timber enough for
all practical or necessary purposes for a
large population. .
"Have you water power?" '
Yes. Wood Rivor will afford an nver-
nge of a mill site every mile, for Cf'y
miles up and uown.
"Have you any mills ? "
One saw mill 18 miles below. Lum
ber per "One horse" grist
ml",' here, 'il'ere will be mills irectid
as soon as peonage will pay.
"What facilities tCT 80k growing?
Firstjrate no better anyKhero.
"Wbai will wild grass turn oft 10 Ue
re?"
From 2 to 5 tons, as per quality.
" "What are our markets aad mice of
grain? " ' " ' ,'
. The 'vast emigration going up this
valley is not one tenth fiuppu" bcp Ji
and we are oly 17 miles from Ft KeVney
and 19 from Kearney City.- Everything
is high Corn $1,25 to $2,50. Hour
$5,00 to $7,03.-; Potatoes $2,00. But
ter 25 cte. Eggs 25 fits, per dozen, and
almost every thing we produce, in pro
portion. ' -
"What kinds of timber have you? "
Cottonwood, Elm, Ash, Haokberry,
Box-elder and Oak.
"What kinds of wild fruit ? "
We have abundance of the finest of
Plums, Grapes, , Gooseberries, Black
Currants, Choko Cherries end Sand
Cherries.
"Do you raise tamo fruits ? "
We have growing, Apple, Peach, En
glish Gooseberry, Currants, Raspberries
and Strawberries, set out last year.
They stood the winter wall and look
fine. ; , . . , , ;
"Are Indians troublesome? "
: "Not at all. We , seldom see one and
they aro always peaceful civil and (juiet,
but great beggars, . , . , . ,
"What wild game have you ? ". "
We have multitudes, Buffalo, Ante
lope and wild fowl, tq say nothing of
the river bank being lined with. Beaver
nnd Ott-cr,' the prairies with wolves and
occasionally a herd of elk. " - - '
"What is the geography of the coun
try ? " ,. :i . ' ; .
On the North side of Platte, from the
Loupe Fork up for near ibO miles, there
is a wide bottom or plain of from 5 to
SO .juUes ,wid?. traversed by . several
creeks and streamt, jiearly all of which
is perfeeyy arable and fino and exceed
ingly fertile, f aooms atraost a porfoct
level,. And covered with grass
Just opposite to us is Grand Island,
some 50 miles long, and covered with
timber. ( From Wood River average dis
tance from the timber, vend Platte,) is
3 miles. Oak grows about twenty miles
above on Wood River, r Upon the whole,
we think this is ths gardes- of Nebraska,
and will be the most important Agri
cultural district in the Territory.. The
eye never looked but npon a more lovely
landscape ; a carriage was itiever1' driven"
over finer roads ; a plow was ( never run
in more excellent soil. : Aside from
this, the best of water, the purest of air1,
and . the .entire bealthfulness is. coo
sidermtion enough. 'r .'

great friend to "Shinn's Ferry," nnd at
no time forgets to speak in its pfniso.
That's right, we do like nn enterprising
man, but hope Brother Shinn will forget
to tell nny wrong stories about tho north
Platte route. 'Tell the truth Brother, if
it don't happen to put a dollar in your
pocket, nnd then we'shalT have"-some
hopes of meeting you in paradise one of

We visited this thriving place a few
days since,' and was pleased to see the
continued progress iir that enterprising
place. We were kindly, welcomed and
entcrtained'by our old friends Mr. Youn
t o
and Dr. Henry", who ore really making
valuable and useful improvements nnd
seemed doing a good business, not only
in the line of trade, but in tho way of en
tertaining the traveling public. - "The
light stocks of goods showed unmistaka
bly for their winter trade. New supplies
were just incoming, nnd as there are six
or eight stores the" supplies will be abun
dant and comp'jtitioa sufficient to bring
prices tohe lowest point.. Wd wish our
neighbors up the way every success and
would modestly suggest to a few, who
do not seem to know the fact, that largo
fortunes aro often made by advertising
liberally and doing business in a straight
forward manner. Emigrants, see adver

In this issue we insert a table of distan

which we have not named one fourth of
ihe ranches or'stopping places, where
accommodations are prepared for travel
ers, in tact on this north Platte route
one is seldoni out of siht of a farm
house, storo,'.tradicg-poit or shop,' mak
ing competition, so great in ail branches
of demand that the purchaser is cure to
be bupplied in all his wants at prices but
a trifle hizhcr than at Omaha, adding the
freight, ' These are facts, any one will
readily perceive on traveling the road. !
The road above the Loupe Fori is of
the very firi.'- quality and ferry in fine or

low,and no trouble to 5ke loads direetly
across, and no probability o a rise bo

Platte is high, difficult or impassable. '
IT IS NOT SO! ;- " "
Game,
Buffalo and antelope nre now plenty
above in the bluffs. "Our boys' came
in on Friday last, having killed five buf
falo, three antelope and one mink. We
have been regaling upon the tender juicy
steaks and cutlets ever since, which makes
us sometimes feel a penchunt for bellow
ing. Mr.: Miller was up a few days pre
vious, and brought down six sturdy fel
