From GuernS y County.
CAMpRIpor, Tebrnary 0th, lSO7.

CAMBRIDGE, February 9th, 1867.
EDITOR STATESMAN: : The farmers OF
Guernsey county are beginning to turn
their hills to good account by giving at
tentlon to wool growing. 1t now ranks
among the first wool growing counties
of the State. Many farmers are devotlng
their entire labors in this direction, only
raising enough ON their lands to feed their
sheep, taking nothing to market but wool.
The coal of this region is Of an excellent
quality, and is plentiful. One gentleman,
near Cambridge, cleared S25,000 on his coal
mine last year. The same person, / believe,
in sinking well for oil, struck a salt vein,
which is now yielding him twenty-five
barrels of very fine salt per day. Thus 1t
will be seen that there are better chances
to get fortunes in old Guernsey than in
such schemes as the Chicago Opera House
lottery.
Cambridge is quite an old town, both in
fact and appearance. Its business has
greatly increased since the railroad has
passed through it, and it will doubtless
some day spread out little and not contine
itself to the old National road, which was
great thing in Its day. There arc two
papers published at Cambridge, the JeGer-
sonidn being the best.
Washington, eight miles from Cambridge
on the National road, is place of much
wealth and has some private residences
that would do credit to your city, and
which could not have cost less than $25,OO0
or $4,000. 1t is live Democratic town,
and does a fine business.
There lives near Cambridge a man by
the name of William Ferguson, who voted
i'm that town for General Jackson In 1921.
There were but six Jackson votes cast in the
town thatyear, and Mr.F. is the only surviv-
or of that gallant little band. He has voted
the Democratic ticket ever since, and has
not been sick or taken any medicine for
over fifty years. Mr.. +. is seventy years
/ old, vet is nimble as man of forty, retain
ing all his faculties to remarkable de-
gree.
THERE'S q stream here of remarkable pc
culiarities. 1t rises in Morgan county,
near the Muskingum river, winds its way
through the hills, and empties into the
Muskingum near Dresden, thirty-fve or
forty miles above the point where itstarts.
1t is eighty miles long, and has but ninety
feet fall The people think it will some day
be navigated by steamboats,, as 1t has con-
siderable depth of water.
see that you have a young lady acting
as your agent at this place in the person Of
Miss Eliza Talbot, who keeps book and
periodical store. This should insure the
success OF THE STATESMAN at this point,
and have no doubt but all the gallant
young Democrats in Cambridge and vicin-
ity will become daily readers OF your ex-
cellent paper, since by SO doing they will
assist worthy young lady in laudable
effort to become useful, benefit themselves
by reading The STATESMAN, help its pro-
prietors by paying for it, and advance the
interests Of the Democratic party by circu-
lating it. A.

Can't the Republican Mind Grasp

The STATEsMAN's editorial showing that
the Internal Revenue paid last year In the
first district of this State, embracing half
of Hamilton county, was greater than the
tax levied in the State in 1853, under the
administration of Governor MEDILL7 has
caused shaking among dry bones in the
Republican party. We supposed it would.
We intended 1t should. Governor MEDILL
was greatly exercised over the fact that the
levy In 1853 for State, county, township,
town, city, poor, bridge, school purposes,
&C., had run up to nearly eight millions oil
dollars. He, therefore, wanted the taxes
cut down and kept down, because 1t was
essential to the prosperity of the State that
this should be done. We are not surprised
that this exhibit, so damaging to the RepabH-
can party, should perfectly astound the
ZanesviLe Courier. 1t scents danger ahead
to its party in consequence of the intolera-
BILE taxes it has loaded down upon the
shoulders of the people. 1t apprehends
that ''the Democratic party expect to make
their fight next fall on the question of tax
ation," and it is very much worried. 1t has
need to be. This matter of taxation, it will
find, is "a fact' that the Republican "mind
can grasp" as we'll as the "Democratic
mind" The Republican mind can COM
prehend that the Internal Revenue paid
last year in one single District of this
State, of itself, should not exceed the taxes
assessed III the State in 1858 for all purposes
whatsoever. The Republican mind as well
as the Democratic mind can comprehend
that such taxation will evitably crush out
business energy and enterprise, and almost
beggar thousands upon thousands. There
must be change in this matter, or the peo-
pie, who once could righttully claim to be
the freest, the most independent, and the
most enterprising, will be necessitated to
fall back into a secondary condition. A
poor man, whether Republican or Demo-
crat when he sits dowp to his meat and
salt, or potatoes and salt, can comprehend
that a great wrong is done him In putting
upon even the salt he uses, as is now con-
templated by Congress, duty of 229 per
cent. In Democratic times, when 1.-THE
South ruled the country" as is falsely as
serted by Republican politicians, duty Of
20 per cent. on salt was considered all-suffi-
cieut. These things will tell; and we un-
dertake to say that as the fall election ap-
proa hes, the people will be more concern
ed about the mitigation of the crushing
taxation the Republican party, in one way
and another, has imposed upon them, than
about whether the blessed Black man shall
be made voter.

FOXES are quite numerous In this county
this winter, says the Madison County Demo
crdt, and hunting them furnishes rare
sport. One was brought to town last week
by A. Bricker, which measured three feet

miles north of town.
AMONG the nominations rejected by the
Senate Thursday, were those of Moses
Kelley, for Attorney, and S. P. Moe, for

assertion that both of the Ohio Senators
would oppose him.
A WHOLESALE dealer in counterfeit money
named George Howard, was arrested on
the Toledo train at Berea, says the Blade,
on Monday afternoon, by Z. A. Culver, of
Cleveland. On examining the prisoner he
was found to have carpet sack filed with
counterfeit tens on the National Bank of
Flour City, Rochester, N. Y, and fifty and
twenty-five cent scrip, well executed.
Mrs. ALLISON, residing on south Sixth
street, says the ZGneSuille Courier, is in her
95th year, and is both cheerful and fond of
conversation. She has three children,
t,oentv-nine grand children, .6fty-sir great
grand children, and too great great grand
children, making ninety descendants in all,
seoeaty-t,Oo of whom are living. We should
like to see the old lady at table with all her
surviving descendants.
RECENTLY, Generals Schenck and Gar
field, and r. G. Parsons, Esq, of Cleveland,
and Douglas Putnam, Esq, of Harmer,
wrote letters to the Ohio Impartial Suf-
frage League of Ohio. They are all suffer-
ing from great dissatisfaction with the
Whites of Ohio that they refuse to give to
the Negroes the same political privileges
they enjoy. Neither would object to the
Governorship OF Ohio.

made of several that had died and the
lungs found to be severely innamed, says
the London Democrat.

EnuaI Before the Inv.

We are told that all men in this country
are now equal before the law. Are they ?
Does the protection of life, person and
property of itself constitute equality before
the law3 If it does, then are all men equal
before the law; but if it does not, then they
are not. Do the men who have to drudge
and toll to make both ends meet, by reason
of the excessive taxation that is imposed on
them, stand equal before the law with the
men who move through life easily by reason
of havinga large amount of capital invested
in United States securities on which they
draw highly remunerative interest, and on
which capital they pay no taxes? Don't
tell us that so long as this inequality in
taxation is tolerated that all men in this
country are equal before the law, because
they are not.

Discomfort among the Working
men In France. ..

The Esperance du Peuple, of Nantes, has
received the following communicated "
note:
Your number of the 9th concludes its
Paris letter thus "The high price OF bread
occurring precisely at the time the quar-
ter's rents fall due Is causing some discOn-
tent among the working classes. To-day
on the Bourse some demonstrations were
talked of, said to have taken place yester-
DAY evening, and which have led to num-
Der of arrests" ..-
The statements made by the Esperdnce
du PeupIe are reabsolutely false. Letters like
the one addressed to that Journal are the
work of factions Intended to excite bad
passions among the working classes, with
the view of periidiOusly taking advantage
of a state OF things which temporary cir
cumstances may make undesirable. But
these schemes have not succeeded, and can
not succeed; for the laboring population is
aware of the efforts made to provide assist
ance for it. ..-.

Taxation Grows More Oppressive

Taxation Grows More oppressive
The past has certainly sufficiently de-
monstrated that any plan of reconstruction
the President and Southern gentlemen shall
agree on as under existing circumstances
satisfactory, will not be considered salts
factory to the Radicals in Congress.
Several days ago the announcement was
made that the President and Southern
leading men had agreed on measure OF
reconstruction, whereof Impartial Suffrage
was to be the cornerstone, and that the
Southern men had gone home to induce the
Legislatures of their respective States to
indorse it. Reasonable it would be to sup
pose that this movemenC would be eminent
ly satisfactory to the Republicans. But not
so. An outcry is being raised against it
by the Radical press. Any measure that
the Southern Whites shall accept with alac-
rity, the Republicans will look upon sus-
pieiously, and refuse support to. A meas
ure that is distasteful to the South-that is
in the nature of punishment-theya appro-
bate. They want the South to be contuma-
cious-to manifest repugnance to the Union
so that they may have an excuse to keep
her out of her natural relations in the
Union. We speak of the Republican poll
ticians. Meanwhile, the business interests
of the country must suffer, and taxation,
per consequence, grows more oppressive.

Good Point.

BINGHAM, of Ohio, on the 7tb, made a
good point against THADDEUs STEVENS and
those of his followers who are intent upon
dealing with the ten Southern States as
conquered territories. He said that he
"was not going to yield to the proposition
of Mr.. STEVENS, that one rood of territory,
embraced within the lines of ten States,
was conquered territory )" that "a Govern
ment did not conquer territory that owed
it allegiance"
That's point that it is very difficult to
get over or around or through.
