Letter f;om the Country.

Fork OF EDIsTo, 8. O., August 8, 1865.
Mr.. Editor Crops in this section are very poor
The freedmen, think, will experience some of
the evils which naturally result from idleness, ere
twelvemonth more has passed. Starvation is
already looming up in the distance before some of
them; while, little above me, in the piney woods,
gaunt famine has actually commenced to prey
They have already commenced depredatons of
stealing, which may be considered only as q pre-
lude to that which is yet to come. Hog and freed
men, as associated in the farmers mind, have be-
come almost inseparable; and when the former is
missing, the author of it's absence is easily ac-
counted for in the person Of the latter.
Farmers, as q class, have hitherto been much
addicted to complaining or, in other words, making
much ado about nothing, il their crops did not
fully meet their expectations. 1t appears, how
ever, that lsterl5 they have somewhat reversed
the order OF things, and are more inclined to
make less ado about something. At any rate,
they retain the centre Of gravity with a greater
degree Of silence now than formerly. The enor-
nifty OF complaints heretofore INDUCED In by
them without a sufficient cause, has probably
been turned into disgust with the knowledge Of q
real one, and this may be assigned as one reason
why they refrain, That they do have sufficient
cause for grumbling now, il ever, no one can
deny who will take the trouble OF coming TO this
section of the wide world. As an instance illus-
trative Of the fact, will cite field on the Bin
nickers Bridge Road, OF an aree Of some fifty
acres, planted in corn, which is estimated by good
judges NOT to yield over two bushels for the whole
number OF acres. This may appear like reducing
matters to an extreme, but It Is nevertheless 40,
aud while II may be the only specimen containing
as great number OF acres, yet thore are many
others which have come under my observation
that may be estimated in the same ratio.
A wet spring, succeeded by o dry summer, are
the two principal features attributed as tho cause
! OF such unprecedented failures. But the prime
cause has been the want OF proper cultivation, as
Ia tested by the great superiority wherever the
white man haH titled the soil. Lands OF ordinary
strength OF fertility, where the corn or cotton has
been K, pt free OF grass and weeds, have suffered
very little from drouth.
1t is notable fact, too, that the nearer you ap-
proaoh to the Freedmen's Bureau, the more gem
eral and psroapiible the failures; while he farther
you recede from that odious institution, the more
encouraging the prospects. This institution is
the greatest bane that has ever been imposed up
on the farmer, and 10 mere farce In It's ostens-
BILE show OF Furnishing offences committed by
freedmen.
Bad crops, the removal Of the stay law, and the
consequent litigation going on In the country, are
gloomy forsbodings to the farmer. Let MS hope
Tor better days. EG, PAYSAN. :

One baeu,iful morning, a hrmer, after
working 1usuy tIr seveya, weeks, succeeded
iu planting one Of h4 larges, fields corn.
Bur Jhe ueigh0oring crows, nos having the
fear OF the lazy IN their hearts, and being any
Thing but tee,oa.lers, found their way to the
l'rmera corudeid and departed frequently

10 dtive the maiauders TO their nests. Ac-
cordinRly he loaded up bis trusty gun, With
the intention % giving them, upon their next
visit, warm reception.

with the report was heard the death cream

Totals 10000

Here is gain of about $4,000 votes in two
years. 1t is true that if We take Illinois,
where half Of the entire gain has been made,
we shall still find proportional majority
considerably smaller than here in Massachu-
setts. OF 10 Maine aud Vermont. The same
ratio, for instance, which prevails between
the Republican majority and the entire vote
of the latter State, would swell the majority
of Illinois to the neghborhood of $50 coo.
Bus seeing how much better not only Iilinoie
but every Western State, does in this re-
spect, han the old and hghly favored States
Of New York and pennsylvania, all invidious
comparisons ought to give way TO proEouad
satisfaction end gratitude. The West is
