Past and Present—This country can no longer be spoken of as the ‘Far West,” as that land is generally conceded to lie nearer sundown, or at least beyond the Rocky Mountains. Ne- braska, which we enter on crossing the river, so lately opened up to the world, and so lately con- sidered one portion of the ‘ Wild West,”’ forms now one of our central States. It possesses a Ppl climate, good water, and a fair supply of timber, and the broad prairies of the eastern por- tion of the State are dotted with well-cultivated and well-stocked farms, that greet the eye of the traveler in every direction, while on all sides may be seen the evidences of thrift and comfort-found only inafarming region. Wheat, oats and corn, yield luxuriant returns, and all kinds of fruits and garden vegetables incidental to this latitude, can be eee in profusion. Rarely will the trav- eler find a more magnificent scene, and more sug- gestive of real wealth and prosperity, than can be seen on these broad prairies, when the fields of yellow grain or waving corn are waiting for the har esters. Miles and miles away stretch the undulating plains, far—aye, farther than the eye can see.
