TIE MIyERAI WEALTH OF WIscoHsIH.-The
ad region occupies sirty counties of SIX miles
a4,uare the unexplorcd district North of the Wis
basin River, not included in what is now called
he mineral district, contains lead mines OF great
laue The copper region begins on the Southern
more Of Lake Superior, and extends, IN Soulh-
Ees,eyy direction TO the Mississippi River, or TO
hs present lead region. Copper has also been
ornd in the country above the klckapoo River.
Twelve miles from Prairie du Chen, and SIX miles
rom the Mississippi, a copper mine has been dis
Oyered, the ore of which will yield about 2 per
isn being about per cent. better than that found
j Mineral Point. Another copper mine has been
ascOyercd, which is very rich and extensive, on


e Kickapoo, Is miles Northeast from Prairie du
sAen Iron ore of superior quality has been found
s, Black River which emptles into the MISSISSIPPI
d Dui sixty miles below the Chippewa River. The
lue at Dubuque, discovered some time since, ls
samatcd TO be worth several hundred thousand
lllars, and to contain 100000 pounds OF lead,
spm those sources of mineral wealth with which
y are already acquainted, and from the reasona-
l.pyesump,ion in favor of other discoveries, Wis


snsln may be considered the richest mineral
s1n,ry in The world II the mineral lands could


purchased without incumbrance from Govern
ssen, il is believed the mining business would pro-


less with greater rapdty than at present. A speed


(; communication with the East is OF essential


Ponarce to the mining districts; in other words,
