We turned away, therefore, to the plains, andfound them of much firmer surface. They partook, however, of the samegeneral character as the plains we had traversed more to the eastward. Their soil was ...a light sandy loam, and the same succulent plants stillcontinued to prevail upon them, which we have already noticed asexisting upon the other plains.
