Calumet County

is described as beautiful and highly picturesque. There is a large reservation on the east side of the lake belonging to the Stockbridge and Brothertown Indians, who, by their habits have become entitled to, and Congress has granted them, all the rights and priveleges of citizens of the United States. Their farms, with their neat houses, substantial fences, and well cultivated fields will compare favorably with many of those belonging to [any] other farmers of this county. They constitute the majority of the inhabitants of the county. A high rocky ridge runs through the county nearly parallel with the lake, from the east side of which the Sheboygan and Manitowoc rivers take their rise, and through these valleys a very direct communication may be had with Lake Michigan by the construction of a rail road or canal.
