For nhoiit two years, during the last war, tire people Were closely confined to forts, never dared to venture out, without their rifle and suf- fered the extremes of Indian cruelty and depredation. Hut, whenever the Indians did mischief, volunteers from the different forts, embodied, pursued and fought them; by which, tiiey were rendered timid and cautious. It was owing to the almost un paralleled intrepidity, and courage and en terprise of those men, that the settlement was saved from ruin and dispersion. The fhee of the country is generally level, diver sified however, with gentle rises and eleva tions, none of which are of sufficient magni tude to deserve the name of a hill. The ■bottoms are level, fertile, well timbered, and produce, great quantities of grapes. The rlulTs, immediately adjacent to the rivers, •ind their bottoms, are generally high and rolling, and intersected by many gullies and spring branches, liy which tiie waters are strained oil into the large streams.

Bear, deer, mid tor- kies, are plentiful; also wild geese ht .locks,. in the spring and fall. Wild honey is so a- Iniiidaiit that x'OO gnIIoils have, sometimes been obtained by a few days limiting, out of the settlement. * The prairies are fertile and beautiful beyond description, having n soil almost as black, .ind very similar in appear ance, to gunpowder. They 01101x1 some of the most verdant, extensive, and delightful landscapes in the. world. A vi.bv of them, when clothed with verdure, is calculated to excite the most agreeable s< usurious. Nei ther the sea or lofty mountains which hide their tops above, the clouds, can have a great er elfect in producing sentiments of the sub lime and beautiful. But if the mind is de lighted with a distant v i. vv, it is equally in terested by the objects immediately around, where grass of different kinds, plants, mid weeds, of different sizes mid strange appear ance, and flowers of various and most de lightful colors, seem to vie w ith each other for oeeiipaiiey. These flowers commence npepiog in the month of May, nod every succeeding month, until October, brings fort it new species. On the verge of those truirics are groves of scattering trees, whose iehfoliage, combined with the waving grass leneath and intermediate sun and shade, live the place a most picturesque and lovely ppearance. Nature, providentially, has artially supplied the absence of timber, by vimerous and inexhaustible mines of sea jal. liaising wheat and stock on them, mild he a most profitable and pleasant lio ness. Hut the great lionst of the country, in imparison with withli its other advantages cm almost unimportant, is the salubrity .if e climate. J do not believe that the whole Unisphere affords a more agreeable, dry' id elastic air than that of tile upper Missou- Wiiilc other parts, more especially the a-board, have at different seasons of the ■ar. n continuance of hunvid, cold, S. cl.m- f atmosphere, which causes a great de- lessinn of the animal spirits, we here enjoy pure air, and vivifying sunshine.

During the last summer, the vgue lias been uncommonly prevalent in .arts subject to it, and the people of Botin's lack ili.i not entirely' escape its ravages.— But, reasoning from analogy. We may not xpect another visitation of the same kind for nine years to conic. The following, however, is a sufficient verification of the sa lubrity of the climate and the health of the inhabitants. The town of Franklin has been laid oil' three years, and possesses a popula tion of v.mre. than one. thousand souls; only eight of whom have died within said time.— Three died of chronic disorders, two of an in- flanu.tion arising from acute bilious aflerti- lions, one of a consumption, one of the pu- rpal fever, the oilier a child, its disease not known. The current of emigration has been rapid and steady. In tiie beginning of the year] Qltl, the population comprised within the limits herein before mentioned, did not exceed five hundred. In 1818, ac cording to the census, it amounted to near nine thousand, and is now, on the most mo derate calculation, twelve thousand. A wil derness lias, within the short space, of three years, been converted into productive fields; and, through industry and enterprise, has become the seat of ail-intelligent and dense population. The lapse of a few years will see tl;country improved by art, and draw ing wealth from its rich sources of rum- mere. The cottage of the husbandman wifi In: converted into a spacious mansion, and his heart gladden hy r his ample means of subsistence, and the brilliant prospects which open around him. Franklin is laid olTon a liberal plan, on the north bank of the Missouri river, and is an incorporated town. The public square con tains two acres, and its principal streets are eighty-two and a half feet vyide. Being yet its infancy, it dues not contain many ele gant buildings; it has, however, an agreea ble and polished soci. ty, and ns to husines. ind importance, is tl.o second town in the territory. < 'bariton is about thirty miles a- hove Franklin, on the same side of the riv- It occupies a beautiful site, and, from its situation and other advantages, promises to become a place of considerable, import ance. Himville occupies a high Bluff situa tion, on the south hank of Missouri, and is the seat of justice for Cooper enmity. It commands a handsome view of Franklin, and is thought to bean eligible site Skilful, and industrious mechanics, of al most every occupation, would here find cit- courigenvent; as money is plenty, and their wages extremely high. Provisions of al moil every kind are clicapand plentiful, but labor and hoarding are high: wheat Is at one dollar per bushel, corn thirty three and one third cents, beef and pork at liv e dollars p.-r cut. and hoarding from three dollars fifty cents to six dollars per week. Fresh and sail springs, a fertile soil, and a healthy climate, which arc not often united together, with I lie cheapness of provisions, render it as desirable to emigrants as any other secti on of tlu: western country. Much first rate land may now he entered within thirty miles from this place. It has lias been sold about seventy miles west of it, and still farther west there is a large body of first-rate land to come into market,hut the time of its sale is unknown.

Infantry, ,St. Pi ler's ltiver, Nov. 10, ISllt. “ As the public, interest is connected with our establishment hero, you will probably be pleased to hoar something of this remote corner of our territory, and of our expedition to it. “ The junction of (lie river with the Mississippi is nine miles below the Falls of Ft. Anthony, and, according to the best calculations we can make, with a quadrant of our own construction, in lati tude 44 degrees 69 minutes north. T he climate has been (Iris season, dry and pleasant. On the ulliinst. the ice began to run ie the Mississippi ; there is none in the Si. Peter's. The soil on the bottoms is alluvial and riel., hut narrow in width. The country there rises t:<) or Hit) feet, and is one immense rolling prairie, of thin light soil, and very little timber, princi pally oak, and short and scrubby. These prairies are covered witli grass, which h very good for cattle, and, in the low places, i-s sufficiently tall and thick to be mowed to good ndv milage, and makes ve ry good hay for cattle accustomed to this kind of grass. The greatest part of the stone about here is iitnestoue ; the remainder sand stone. Itut 1 hero is but a small propor tion of the limestone which will make time. It lias the appearance of having been acted upon by heat and also by water. “ Our men, in quarrying the stone for our chimneys, have found several pieces of pure copper, and ore of sever al metals combined, the principal of which is copper. They have also found considerable iron ore of a good quality. 11 c, nrj} x according to the c;,;„„i,xtion ofboatmen and voyagers, three hundred miles above Prairie do Chain, and eleven hundred above St. l.ouis, and twelve hundred from Detroit. “We left Detroit on the 14tli day of May last, in schooners, which took us to (irceti Bay of Lake Michigan. Here we took batteaux. Wc left Green Bay on the Hh of June, and ascended the Fox rivir. This stream cannot, with much propriety, be called navigable.— Uis verj reeky and shallow, and a very rapid current. In three places it is wholly impassable with a loaded boat for nearly bt e ■ mil I e in each place. The portage between this river and the Oivjs- consin is,I believe, about l.vo miles. I did not measure it for want of lime. The Ooisronsii is very easy tc descend, hut is diflictlt to ascend, on account of nu merous said bars, and a rapid current. 'The smnonmy be said of the Mississippi from Prailie du Client to this place.— We arrive! i.t Prairie du Clieiu on the 30th June. Here vve remained until the lith of Aufji* ., wailing for supplies, and our recruis from Ft. Louis. On the first of Avgust two boats arrived ; one with store:, and the other with provis ions. The recruits had tint yet come. We set out vi'h w hat men we had, alter leaving two companies at Prairie du C’hcin, and ^ending one to Hock island. This left usa force of about one hundred men. Tlicmcr being low, vve found some difficutv in getting over several sand bars. Wc, however, arrived at the month ofthei ivor Ft. l’eter, or Ft.

We have commenced ploughin', ard intend, the next season, by order if Major General Macomb, to raise sullfioct for the subsistence of our regiment “ Wlici this post is well established, the only expense will be, (if it is cor rectly inijiagid) the pay mid clothing of the troop . “ Wou|l not the employment of the troops, in the manufacture of copper and iron, pe advantageous to the govern ment ?” From thl Democratic Frets, Jan. 2B. THE MKSOUI.I ENCAMPMKNT. An oflickr of die Cth regiment, stati oned at th? Council Bluffs, writes to his friend in Hnttsburgh, (under date of the 12th of November) as follows :— “ The siteulinii here 1 am pleased with.—1 fliliik there is no danger of starving, the provisions for the winter mil sprint having arrived ; but vve feel the want «f vegetables—it is almost three months since vve have tasted any. We found detr, elk and turkeys, in great n- bundance in ascending the river. We see few of them here : however two of Capt. lie,ley's Riflemen came in a few flays .-inct with forty turkeys—and ano ther vvithtiventy-six. * Two,great dinners have l>een given since vve (.. rived here ; one by Colonel Atkinsontto the officers of the two regi ments ; tpe other was given in return by the two regiments—at which wc laid turkeys, wild geese, brant.-grouse, pnt- ndges, ducks of eve ry description, fresh beef and venison—but no vegetables:— vve have, however, a good soil, and we will have a plenty of these next season. Our garrison, which is built of cotton wood logs, progresses finely, and is large enough to contain the two regiments. “ The Colonel and the Indian Agent have bold two councils w ith the Indians. The Pawnees, with whom the first was held arc represented ns being very strong, and able to bring into the field 20(10 warriors and 700 fire arms—they are all mounted on niuli s, which they steal front the .Spaniards. They appear friendly, ns do the Maliavvs. These In dians arc not more than thirty miles from us and are in our camp ev ery day —tiie Pawnees about DO miles. “ The resfinienl is ycncrnlv healthy.” LONDON BREWERIES. The Breweries of London, “ muv justlv be ranked amongst its greatest curiosi ties, and the establishment of Messrs. Barclay, &c. is one of the most consider able. A steam engine, of the power of 30 horses, does Hie greatest pint of the work; for, although, there are nearly two hundred men employed mid a great number of horses, these arc mostly for the out door work ; the interior appears quite solitary. Large rakes with chains moved by an invisible power, stir to the very bottom the immense mass of malt in boilers 12 feet deep; elevators which no body touches, carry up to the summit of the building 2,500 bushels of malt a day, thence distributed through wooden channels to the different places, where the process is carried on. Casks of truly gigantic size are ready to receive the liquors. One of them contains 3000 barrels. Now at eight barrel, to a ton, this is equal to a ship of 275 tons. By the side of this are other enormous ves sels, the smallest of w hich contains a- bout BOO barrels, are worth when full 3000 pounds, (lie barrels alone in which it is carried about to customers cost eigh ty thousand pounds ; and the w hole ca pital is not less than half a tuition ster ling; £50,000 barrels of beer arc sold annually, which would load a tlrct of 150 merchantmen of the burthen of 200 tons each.
