To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Yet Alton, with all its local and artificial advantages, is obnoxious to objections. Its situation, in one section abrupt and precipitous, while in an- other depressed and confined, and the extensive al- luvion lying between the two great rivers opposite, it is believed, will always render it more or less un- healthy ; and its unenviable proximity to St. Louis will never cease to retard its commercial advance- ment. The city of Alton, as it is now styled by its char- ter, was founded in the yea...r 1818 by a gentleman- who gave the place his name ; but, until within the six years past, it could boast but few houses and lit- tle business. Its population now amounts to several thousands, and its edifices for business, private res- idence, or public convenience are large and elegant structures. Its stone churches present an imposing aspect to the visiter. The streets are from forty to- eighty feet in width, and extensive operations are in progress to render the place as uniform as its site will admit.
