source of wealth to the farmer. Many of our counties, and much land now consider ea oi but little value. are welt adapted for wheat, and the erection of mills IS only wanted to enable our farmers to supply the country with flour, by which means a great deal ot money would be kept i'll the coun- try, and large quantity of upland would be brought into cultivation. It is desira- Die then, that information should be given where water power can be had for mills and other purposes. Deeply sensible of the great importance of typographical de- Iseriptions Of our country, hope the sub IJect will arrest the attention of persons whose personal knowledge will enable them to do justice to the several counties. and that 1 may induce a more competent person to engage in the undertaking, of fer the following imperfect view of

 PULASKI COUNTY. Pulaski county is situated in the central part of tbe Territory. is % miles in extent from north to south, and 40 miles from east 10 west, containing population of 2500 souls.

 Little Red river flows or, the northern houndary-theS Saline on the southern-the Arkansas runs through the central portion of the county. Besides these rivers, there are several large Bayous or Creeks inter- spersed through the country and emptYing Into the rivers. The Hurricane creek emptles into the Saline--La Fourch, the big and Little Maumel--the Palarm and Bayou Metre empty into the Arkansas.- On all these and several smaller wator courses, there are considerable bodies of good land, properly called bottom lands, and good upland IS also to be found in the vicinity of some of them.

 On the Hurricane IS sn inexhaustible quarry of milestone rock, said to be but Attle inferior to the French burr.

 On the Fourche are several mill scites some of which will afford water sufficient to work machinery throughout the year, others will be deficient of water for three or four of the summer months. On this stream IS 3 great deal of good land. In the neighborhood of the Arkansas, from one to two miles back from the river. are larre fakes which afford water for mill purposes dnFing about eight months in the year, On two Of these situations. mills, saw and Egrlst, are erected, one lG miles above, the other the same distance below. the Seat of GoTernmenf, and one or two mills are nov building and will be ill operation the cnsu- ing fall

 The Bavon De Sarco, after receiving Wolf creek and the two Cypress Bayous, form large stream, and empties into White river. On this bayou are large bodies of excellent land, both bottom and upland, and there are said to be several valuable mill scites.

 The productions of the country gre cot ton, corn, cattle and hogs.

 Little Rock, the Seat of Justice and the Seat of Government, Is handsomely situat- ed on the south bank of the Arkansas river, about l49 miles above its mouth, in latitude 34-44 N., longitude not correctly ascer- tained. This place must undoubtedly con- tinue to be the Seat of Government of the ] Territory and future State. The situation Is high and airy, being about so feet above high water mark.

 The soil is clay, mixed with gravel, and 'the ground Is sufficiently rolling to carry the rains into branch running across the town, so that tue streets are but little in- cemmoded with mud. The streets cross each other at right angles, and are 60 or SC feet wide.

 The town was laid out in 1920, but ir consequence of conflicting claims to the land, made but little Improvement for or : years, since which time the town has made considerable advance, containing a mum. Der of valuable buildings and population 2. of about 45o souls. < F. In the town are Dry Good and Grocery stores, Drug store, Tavern, Coffee. hoase, } Private boarding houses, Black Smiths, Gun Smith, Tailors, Halter 3 Shoe Makers, ] saddler, Cabinet Ma, kers, Wagon Maker, Carpenters, Brick Maker, 9 Brick Masons, l Tanner Meeting house, Baker, , Priniing-O Of tices, Physicians, 2 Lawye ? Schoo houses. -Tnc NkS1SF The first } or 4 years after the settle ment of the town, 1t was very sickiy, ant the diseases were generally of a malignant character; but for the last 3 years there has been no osiekness of account, and 1t ma; be truly affirmed of the place, that but few towns are freer from sickness throughout the year, than is this town. The present has been more sickly than either cf the last seasons. II may safely be predicted that in few years Little Rock will be as justly famed for salubrity as any part of the Western country ever has been. This pre-. diction is based on the high and airy situa, tion of the town, and from the fact fha' there are no swamps, lagoons, or overflow. ed lands in the vicinity, which can possi biy affect the health of the inhabitants.
