" As Others See Us"
\ V " Marksman," in the Herald, writes :t— "Turning into 'what is known as MacI ; kay's line, Imade my way in the direc- ».; ; iionipf Feilding. All along this route.l I. found the same evidence of progress arid ■'- prosperity as I had previously met with, ' in fact, go where you will in this land of I ipromise;you will find nothing but -smiling >l homeisteads, and a populpusi cheerful and J : icprite^ted peopled 'lt is scarcely possible r. .that it. could be otherwise, as they have ' everything that nature can supply to meet » their every requirement.: Agenial, healthy 1 climate, arid .-''a soil that only re mire:-, tick- > ling to make it throw out a laughing abund-; > ance of the earth's fruits, who would not . be happy and contented in such a parar disc ? And can it be. wondered that those *'■ who have been fortunate enough to obtain ' a footing in such an Eden should take ■ root and flourish, . and decline -almost every possible inducement held out by I other envious and eager applicants to get .'-.■ them to yield up their rights, and leave • : a spot where by patient toil and industry ■". they have converted a rude forest into yerdarit and luxurious pasture, arid caused : the wilderness to blossom like the rose."
