ite, two hundred and eight feet in length, by
ffty-eight in breadth, which will 20 into oper-
alton in the course Of 1861 and much Of cot
ton raised in this division viii be consumed
that is, raised in this and some Of the adjoining
counties-and will furnish u market at home.
Moreover, there are but few counties in the
United States that have more facilities for any
kind of machinery where water-power is re-
garded, for it is in abundance on every stream
for such purposes; and the population of the
county viii be independent Of the North, or
even of the Old World. Apart from this there
are four doctors of the Old School, living at the
village of L-----, who have established some
reputation as surgeons and physicians, and the
county is fanked by two steam doctors and one
Dutch or water-doctor. From these advantages
the good citizens live in dread Of no epidemics,
or nothing short of the cholera or smallpox.
AS in all other sections Of the world, a few die
prematurely, by indulging in the inebriating
auid which is 30 bountifully manufactured on
many of the streams of this division liz has
been more or less deleterious in its effects on
mind, body, and property, than all the wars,
pestilence, &c., that have ever visited this di-
vision. In fact, the juice of the apple Is still
tortured into alcohol, with intense anxiety, TO
be retailed out to those who are as anxious b
swallow it down as the retailer Is to fob their
money. 1t is not, as at first, when the woman
partook of the fruit alone in the garden of Eden;
but the men now partake of the juice manufac-
tured into alcohol and are led captive by the
Evil One at his will, notwithstanding Milton's
idea at the distant view he took of it. He said:
Earth felt the shock, and nature, from her
seat, gave signs of wo that all was lost The
apple is a delicious fruit, but when fermented
and distilled, ought not to be placed to ones
neighbor's mouth, by the bottle, which beggars
many citizens of all descriptions, discovering
their nakedness truly, as the Prophet Habak-
kuk said-chapter 2, verse l5."

farmer should apply it literally, and all other
persons fgurativey, to their instruction and
profit: #
SIGNs OF PROSPEROUS FARMER.--When
lights are seen burning in his house before the
break of day in winter especially, it shows that
the day will never break on the breaking in of
the winter of adversely.
When you see his barn larger than his house.
it shows that he will have large profits and
small Affections.
When you see him driving his work, instead
of his work driving him, it shows that he will
never be driven from good resolutions, and that
he will certainly work his way to prosperity.
When you see in his house more lamps for
burning lard or grease, than candlesticks for
more expensive purposes, it shows that econo-
my is lighting his way to happiness and plenty
with that light which should enlighten every
farmer in the world
When you always see in his woodhouse q
suffciency for three days or more, it shows
that he will be more than ninety days won
der, in farming operations, and that he is not
sleeping in his house after a drunken frolic.
Wnen ne mas mousse bepdTate lrOm the lIldlll
building, purposely for ashes, and an iron or
tin vessel to transport them, it shows that he
never built his dwelling to be a funeral pile for
his family, and perhaps himself.
When his hog-pen is boarded inside and out,
it shows that he is ''going the whole hog" in
keeping plenty inside his house and poverty
out.
When his sled il housed in summer and his
farming implements covered both winter and
summer, it plainly shows that he viii have n
good house over his head in the summer Of
early life, and the winter of old age.
When his cattle a,e properly shielded and fed
in winter, it evido2ces that he is acting ac-
cording to ScriptrnS, which says that :" n mer-
ciful man is meroiful to his beast"
| When he is seen subscribing for n newspa-
per- and paying in advance, it shows that he is
speaking like book respecting the latest inn
provements in agriculture, and that he never
gets his walking papers to the land of poverty.

SINGULAR AFFAIR.-THE DEAD COME TO IFE.
About ten days ago we published statement
loticing the arrest of two men, named Gould
md Handy, residents Of Dearborn county, In.
Llama, who were charged with killing DO,
named Silas Magee The boy was missing sinct
March. About the time of the arrest fire wal
discovered burning in the woods in the vicinity
# the house of one of these men, and on exami
nation a substance was found which was pro
| bounced to be charred bones These men wer,
accordingly arrested, and had preliminary ex
animation before two magistrates at Harrison
u this county. Upon a sitting of the case, no
conclusive evidence was produced which i'm
aecated the parties, although there was no nc.
counting for the absence of the boy. They
were accordingly discharged
A few days subsequently, the missing boy
made his appearance in the neighborhood, much
to the relief Of the men who had suffered under
the charge of so terrible a crime. We publish
the facts that the parties may have every advan-
.age of public exoneraton from the charges
which have been made and so singulary refuted
by the return of the murdered individual - Gin

THr ADVANTAGES or RAILROADS Cattle in for
mer years were merely raised and grazed on the
extensive prairies of the West, and driven to the
State Of Ohio to be fed but of late years they have
been mostly granted west and driven slowly east
to market. The cost and shrinkage Of these cat
tie, we learn from the Indians Sentinel in driving
them to the Atlantic market from this State, is
over $50 per head the beef loses much of it's Juicy
sweetness in the process of driving. The cattle
are near three months on the road, and arrive in
large droves at the Cities temporarily Cutting the
market. All this, that paper says, will soon be
remedIed. When the continuous line of railroad
from Philadelphia through the States Of Ohio and
Indiana, now rapidly being constructed, shall be
completed these cattle can be carried on the cars
from Anderson, the poin, where the drovers' route
strikes the line OF the Bellefontaine Railroad at
heavy saving to thedrovers to the actual expense
and shrinkage, leaving the beef fresh and sweet
There will be another advantage in this change of
process. In getting these cattle to market, the
drovers can have them kept at the western end of
the railroad much cheaper, until the demand for
beef at the cities is right, and then by telegraph
give notice and have them sent forward on the
cars in such numbers as may be required, in few
days. This change in the process of carrying
western fat cattle would doubtless be beneficial
