Ae I am away on these net plains, I thought I would drop you a few linea describing our trip. Soo, and Mn. Wilford, of Blyth, Mre. Wray and myself, Mit ou the 3rdof July via North Bay, and fropl tint point to Rat Portage is a contionoae 000000y of rocks, with aoaroely a living thing not even wild birds. Rooks are partly arta covered with scrub and here and Chore we pass over a river. The railroad is continually winding aronud rooks or Lille of atone. These rooks do not tower nearly so high as I expected, but are very hilly, and not ea mach ae a potato patch to be nee. From Rat Portage to Winnipeg the oouotry is sparingly settled andis not a e it I d e abs part to live in, owing to too mush water near the surface. Winnipeg is a fine oily with wide etreeta and lovely bonlevarde, but keeping away from the 0. P. R, works there is not much doing in rho way of factories, While driving through the oity with a friend I was surprised to gees few amoke•etaoke, though there is a great trade doing in the oommeroial line, and eepeoially in T. Eatou'e large store. From Winnipeg to Portage la Prairie there is a lot of fist, wet country, and not ep to my expectations, in fact nearly all the way to Brandon le poor country with the exception of the Portage plains, is said to be the garden of Canada, Where the land is dry it certainly is good and loaded down with wheat, Ar. riving In Virden, we stopped off for a couple of weeks' visit. The country around Lenora and Herniate appears to be a first oleos farming diatriot, in fact, the beat, 00 far, excepting the Portage plains. lu the dietriot of Lenora and Hamiota 070 met number of old friende from Morrie, living in a floe farming oonntry, and among those farming on one emotion and over of laud, are --James Molotoeh, whose wife was formerly May Embury, at one time a resident of Bel. grave.

Scott, of Morris, has 1,100 aures of land, 000 io wheat; Ben Miller, 640 acres, 800 wheat ; Robt. Vannormau, 640 three, 200 wheat. Gilbert Embary and a number of other Morrie and Wawanosb people, are farming on half and three. quarter sections of land and all apparent• ly doing well. All the larger farmers have from 150 to 300 sores of Summer fallow. They grow two crops of wheat, one of oats or barley, and then Bummer fellow. That is shoat the rotation, bat little or uo ha •nate and oat , o t sheaves take thelane of hay• everything thio depends on wheat, and theexpectfom 26 to 80 bushels to the aore. The laud is valved at 35,000 per quarter section, The above mentioned part of the country is under cultivation, the same as Morrie or Wawauoeh, excepting low lands.
