NEBRASKA , ts Agricultural Capabilities , Sand Hills , and Hay- Holds , The Miuio.iduea Formation of ths Band Hilla. Town of VnlenUnB-S C. & P. B H , Etc Monday , November 20th , I loft to visit llio northweatorn per * .ion of the atnto na far as it it travoraod 37 the Sionx City & Pacific railroad. Of thla region liltlo is known , mid resorts - sorts concerning ita agricultural Worth nro 01 oontrndiotory aa to bewilder - wilder and perplex. The descriptions ; ( vcn by aoioutiats refer to limited firoja or special lonturos , and leave nnuoliood the mntorlal quustiona as to capabilities of this vast region to onoourngo settlement and cultivntion. It has boon logardcd aa a doiort of sand hills , and nothing more , to bo given up now and forever to ita primi- ivo aolitudo and isolation , except or the herds of cattle finding t.utnmer paaturago amongst the table lands , canona aud bordora of crooks. With much of this Impressed upon mo aa foot , I atnrted. With very different dean I return , aud now propose to inpart without exaggeration or ro- oorvo the knowledge which juatifiea , ho change. Of the counties between Donglaa and Holt too much is known to require tnoro than this comment : that in pop ulation and productiveness they com pare favorably with any newly eottlcd counties of the state. It was night when I oroesod Holt , both going and returning , BO I must accept in regard to it the statements of others , who represent it aa a beautiful olovntod ; raot , well supplied with water and timber and producing abundantly all jur ordinary crop ) , aa well aa furnish ing extensive ranges for cattlo. Ono morning found mo at Long Pino. Hero the natural features of ; ho country changed most perceptibly. The rolling prairies gave place to rast stretches of table land , apparent- y level aud unbroken. The gently sloping banks of streams bacamo can ons , and the level line of the horizon was broken by sand hills. From Long Pine to Johnstown , on Plum creek , a distance of twenty miles or more , the soil is a light-Bandy loam , and its value may bo judged of from the fact that though it extends to the Niobrara river , fifty milcH north of the railroad , and for ten or twelve miles south of it , and WAS all but terra incog- niia twelve mouths ago , new homoa are already dotted all over it , and claims are now scarce within five or six miles of towns and stations. As n matter of course , but little op portunity has been given for experi ments in farming , and time alone can determine the qualities of the soil and for what crops it la' best adapted , but BO far as experiments have been con ducted , the result Is porfeotly satisfac torily. At Plum Creek I met Mr. Harrison Johnson , formerly a resident of Douglas county , and all his life a farmer. Unable to contend with dif ficulties of a peculiarly trying nature ho resolved to abandon his old homo and seek another. Four years ago he fira set his eyes upon the canon of Plum Creek and the beautiful lands upon every side of it. Two years' ago ho removed there with his family and to-day ho and his boys are doing well , each having scoured homesteads and timber claims , built houses and broken land , from which this season they had crops of corn averaging forty bushels to the acre , and vegetables of all kinds that cannot bo surpassed. Most of the turnips wore six inches in diameter tor , and I have specimens cf their polo toes that measured fifteen and a half inches round in ono direction and eight and a half inches in the other. Ho has no fears in regard to the future and is happy in his lot. Others expressed pressed similar views , and many are justly enthusiastic over a soil which gives evidence of fertility , canons fur nishing pine , cedar and oak , ample for all purposes , swift streams of pure soft water whoso perpetual soutces are in the hills , and a crystalline atmosphere , every inspiration of which is a defiance to diteaao. From Plum Greek to the Niobrara river , whore it is crossed by the rail road , a fine opportunity is afforded for studying the "Sand Hills , " which have given geological prominence to this part of the State. They oc cupy a large portion of the entire country in ranges parallel to , or else at | right angles to each other ; in huge serpentine convolu tion ; ; in clusters , or as isolated pro. j actions from thu plain of grass. In Height they vary from a few feet to a hundred foot or moro , and In area from a few rods to miles. They present - sent almost every variety of form mound , frustrurn , cone and pyramid , and mock almost every form of archi tecture , from the sacred edifice , with its aspiring gothic , to the svern battle- mouts of feudal times ; all these per fected or distorted as the case may bo by tiio carving and scooping of wind and water. "Thoy are not all sand however. They appear , the larger es pecially , to bo composed of an indu rated mixture of sand , pebbles and clay-marl , containing petrifactions of trees , and gigantic bones , which nro found at a depth below the surface of spvonty or eighty feet. Some are des titute of vegetation , bat most are en tirely covered with grass. Between the ranges are numerous lakes and largo level stretches of land , watered by email streams. These are called hay meadows or flats , and furnieh every year hundreds of thousands of tons of splendid gross foi hay , which die and enrich the soil for a future growth , or are consumed by the too frequent prairie fire , The origin of these hills is still an open question , but if I mistake not some light might be thrown upon i * by a study of the banks of the Minlcaduaa and Niobrara , and the country beyond to the north west. Accepting the theory that this entire country was formerly the bed of a vast bko or inland sea , it is evi dent that theao rivers and similar trero fissures formed by an upheaval which contributed to the formation of the Rooky mountain range or n mountainous region nearer still , the Black Hills possibly. The movement o the displaced waters In seeking rt hwer kvel is a tubjcct more for imagination than words. After the first tremendous delufto had swept by , resistless Ibods would continue , pul verizing the rooks , ploughing up the soil , leveling forests , caning out can ons and carrying to Immense distances the fertile portions of the soil and de positing instead debris and sand The railroad la not in running order - dor beyond Thatcher , seven miles this side the Niobrara , and the fort so named , directly north , must bo reached - od by atago. After riding thrco or four miles over a country similar to that already doaoribod , the clifl'j of the Minloadusa suddenly rUe into view , extending east and west for miles , their white and glistening fronts relieved hero and tnoro by the dark green foliage of cedar and pjno. From the fort I walked to Valentino , four and n half miles west. This town site , named In honor of Hon. E. K.Valentino , is exceedingly beautiful , It Is an extensive level plateau at Iho junction of the Mlnioadusn aud Nio- brara rivers. To the south is an extensive view of river , valley mid aaud hill ranges , while not over a milo north of the station , the cltlT of the Minicadusa form a picturesque back ground. Hero 1 mot , for the firat Lime , with Mr. Dave Hears , ono of the manliest of men. From him I learned that the prospect for havicg a good town was encouraging , though much depended upon whether the road stopped there rvwhilo or pushed right ahead. "Supposing the latter to happen , what , then , would create and support a townt" The reply in substance wan , that ns the nearest point to the fort and to Rosebud agency , all the freighting for these places would bo done at Valentino ; that while the fort remained occupied there would bo a trade from there ; that along the rivers and crooka many settlements have already boon made , while immigrants are arriving fast ; that Valentino will probably bo a division station and that the now land ofllco will probably bo located thoto. There are now ovtr n dozen buildings completed aud the immediate wants of the town are a hotel , a blacksmith - smith , a harness maker and a shoe maker. A walk out to the banks of the Minicadusa will well reward the visit or , and as baforo suggested may ex plain the presence and general features of the Sand hill region' . The eonth bank of thla stream is rounding and sloping , the north boundary la a per pendicular cliff , out through , hero and there by canona , but all with walls no foot can scale. The valley itself is a narrow and deep channel. The river bed is at least ono hundred and fifty foot below the pblnt of observation , while the opposite ell fid rise to an equal distance abovo. Standing here , talking in the whole scene , the conviction is inevitable that at some time a hundred Niagaras poured themselves intp this abyss and after churning and boiling for awhile in its depths , rose and poured over the southern bank cut ting It down and carrying it away , the lighter and fertile portions being transported far beyond their original position , while the rooks , pebbles and sand were strewn along the course of the mighty flood and received their resent shape and general direction. ' ? t will bo noticed that as a general thing the escarpment of the sand hille points a little to the north of west and that their slopes''aro In the other direction , showing the conreo of the waters by which they were de posited. The petrified trees indicate the same thing ; whether found above or below the surface they Ho with their roots up stream , which- was west aud Ilqhtly to the north. Taking n sketch of the wild and rugged scenery characteristic of this locality , I returned to the fort and made the acquaintance of Thatcher & Go , , post traders , whoso long residence gives value to their opinions of the country. To Maj. Gentry , the now commander of the post , I am Indebted for the most polite and hospitable attention. He is a gentleman who will make n host of friends in his present position. Dr. Macgillicuddy and his Indian police were hero from Pine Ridge waiting to reeolvo and carry to the agency $10,000 of silver currency. The Sioux City & Pacific railroad company are entitled to the highest praise , not only for opening up this vast and hitherto neglected portion of Nebraska , but for the manner in which they are building their road. It Is first class in every respect. The road bed is solid , the sand and indu rated matter before spoken of , muk ing as good a foundation for the rails as the broken rock on the Penn sylvania Gontral. All the stations , section houses and water tanks are well and solidly built and neatly painted. Nothing indicates negligence or niggardliness on the part of the company , and oven to stations whore no town or village exists , except upon paper , those remarks are applicable. What will you do with it * ? It is no longer unanswerable in regard to Northwestern Nebraska.n On the magnificent table lands and along the canons and creeks crops of ull kinds can bo raised in abundance. On and around the sand bills tens of thous ands of cattle now find summer pasturage turago , and there is room for hun dreds of thousandx more. The vast hay fields offer a tempting opportunity for a branch of industry , which is comparatively untried in tno state , the baling and shipping of hay ; and thus divided between farmers , stock , raisers and hay makers these thous ands of square miles will soon bo oo cuplod , and an immense local business bo furnished to an enterprising rail road which will ere long take rank as ono of the trunk lines of the state.

The tobacco trade , possibly , has moro mysteries than any other in the ages of commercial immorality. It is almost as difficult to purchase a good cigar promiscuously in Havana as il is in London ; unless you know the right shop to go to , you are likely to buy Whitechapel and Bremen abomi nations , exported from Europe for the purpose , and put up In the most or- ihodox "Habana" boxes. In Vera Cruz yon may buy cigars fjr five shillings a hundred , which the ven ders for A faw conta extra will pack and label with the name of some fa- nous brand. Sa they will in Porto Platojor San Domingo , So they used to n Brazil ; but Itahlftti and other Bra- /Ulan cigars have now made their own name , and have established an hon orable claim to bo considered among ; ho boat cheap cigars In the world. It is impossible to got on Inexpensive ; oed cigar in Guba itself ; the best brands are never exported , for few people hero would euro to give ha'f-a- : rown or three shilling * apiece for their "smokod , " which the wealthy Cuban who consumes thorn soft and green , wrapping them in oiled silk to orosorvo the il ivor pays on the spot There in much in n namo. Thou sands of realty excellent woods are made In England and Germany from good raw tobacco Imported for the purpose ; but It would never do to offer them for sale as British or Gor man produco. What a charm lies in the words "Vuelta Abnjo , " is to road on your cigar boxes ! Vuolta Abajo is n small district between Havana and Santiago , consisting of a few acres of land only , now in the possession of two or three of the richest planters In the island ; and probably not au atom of the tobacco noted for ita richness which is grown thrro finds Ho way beyond their own air-tight bladder cigar-ponchos , or those of their inti mate friends , Millions Given Away.
