GENERAL VIEW OF THE VALLEY OF THE MISSISSIPPI. Its Extent?Subdivisions?Population?Physical Features ?Rivers. The Valley of the Mississippi, in its proper geographical extent, embraces all that portion of the United States, lying between the Alleg- hany and Rocky Mountains, the waters of which are discharged into the gulf of Mexico, through the mouths of the Mississippi. I have embraced, however, under that general term, a portion of the country bordering on the northern lakes, including the north part of Ohio, the north-eastern portions of Indiana and Illinois, the whole of Michigan, with a considerable territorial district on the west side of lake Michigan, and around lake Superior. textit{Extent. This great Valley is one of the j largest divisions of the globe, the waters of which pass one estuary. To suppose the United States and its territory to be divided into three portions, the arrangement would be, the Atlantic slope, ?the Mississippi basin, or valley, ?and the Pacific slope. A glance on any map of North America, will show that this Valley includes about two- thirds of the territory of the United States. The Atlantic slope contains about 390,000; the Pacific slope, about 300,000; which, combined, are 690,000 square miles; while the Valley of the Mississippi contains, at least, 1,300,000 square miles, or 833,000,000 acres. This Valley extends from the 29 to the 49 of north latitude, or about 1400 miles from south to north; and from the 3 to the 35 of longitude west from Washington, or about 1470 miles from east to west. From the source of the Alleghany river to the sources of the Missouri, following the meanderings of the streams, is not less than 5000 miles. textit{Subdivisions. The States and Territories included, are a small sectio.
