From the Wooster Republican,
The Democrat" Editor De.
camped.

At the late session of the United
States District Court in Cleveland, the
Grand Jury found an indictment
against JAMES A. ESTELL, Probate
Jadge of Holmes county, and editor
and Publisher of the Wayne county
Democrat and Holmes county Farmer.
in which he was charged with forging
and issuing fraudulent aatsralizat,on pa
pers to sundry persons. A warrent
was issued for his arrest and the Uni
ted States Marshal visited his resi-
dence and place of business in Millers-
burgh and also came to Wooster in
search of the PROBATE Judge, but he
could nowhere be found, and nothin G
could be learned of his Whereabouts
We have heard it said that he was not
long since snuely eseonced behind the
ramparts of Fort Napolean, in Holmes
county, and that he desired to rally un-
der his banner the Democratic chiefs
of Wayne, Holmes, Coshocton, &c., to
resist the United States Marshal, as in
former times he instigated others to do;
but the said .'chiefs" could not see it,
and so Estell has become a wanderer,
far from home and friends, and is no
doubt calling on the rocks and noun
tains to hide him from the wrath to
come. We understand the parties who
have his case in charge say that his
prospect of representing Holmes county
in Columbus was never better, if he
can be persuaded to return and take tht
certificate emitting him to the place il
that Democratic school of politics.

Measures of Peace.

The New York Herald, of the lst
inst, says editorially:
eve learn from the best attainable
authority that General Grant is EN-
phatically in favor Of SO amending the
Constitution as to limit therein the
President to one term, and to make uni
versal suffrage, or suffrage to male cit
Mens, of all races and colors, above the
age of 81 years, the supreme law of the
land. With regard to universal suff-
rage, we suspect the Constitutional
Amendment, article ID, which provides
that the several States may regulate
suffrage each for itself, but in proper
ton as the suffrage is restricted repre-
sentation shall be restricted, is not con-
sidered settlement by General Grant,
but rule apt to result in endless
troubles from the conflicting plans like
ly to be adopted among the States
Hence, no doubt, General Grant has
concluded that an amendment making
universal manhood suffrage the SUI
preme law of the land in all States and
Territories is the only decisive solution
of this otherwise embarrassing quss-
tion."

DEAN FRIENDS AT the date of our
last meeting we were permitted to re-
port commendable prograss insthe can
vass of our County in behalf of the
Bible Cause. AT, that date, Dec. 29,
1867, We had accomplished, through
the labors of our agent, Rev. John
Hansher, the canvass Of the townships
of Cheshire, Addison, Morgan, Hun
.tington, Springfield and Green. and the
formation of societies in aach,. auxili-
ary to the County Society. In those
townships the agent visited 989 fami-l
lies, of whom l7s we're found desti-
tute of the Bible 4All destitutions
we're supplied, either by sale or dona--
ton, and the money realized by collec-
tons, S155 Co. The agent subse-
quently,a and in, the time embraced in
the present year, eanyassed Walnut,
Perry and Gallipolis townships, in
Guiding the city, visiting 997 families,
and finding79 destitutions, which were
supplied. The date of the agents re-
port of bis work. in the last named
townships, was February 5th, 1868, at
which time the townships of Ohio,
Guyan, Greenfield, Harrison and Clay
had not been visited. The roads at that
time being almost impassable, the man
ayers decided to defer the further can
vass of the county untila more farora-.
BILE season. The whole work. thus far,
has been the formation of eight Town

peet much aid in behalf of the noble

~ Messrs. David Richards and ]
H. Jones, natives of Wales, and en-
gagged for many years in the manufac-
ture of iron, have recently made q
trip over the Knoxville and Kentucky
Railroad to examine the mineral re-
sources of the region tributary to the
road. They found ten-mile vein Of
fossiliferous iron, the vein being four
feet thick, and containing sixty or sew
enty per cent. of very superior iron.-
In the immediate vicinity of the iron,
they found ''four remarkable beds Of
coal, of excellent quality, ranging from
two to four feet in thickness" They
conclude: "The result of this exami-
nation convinces us that the advantages
offered for the manufacture OF iron ore
on the liueof said railroad, for the sec
ton examined by us, extending from
thirty to forty miles from the city OF
Knoxville, are superior to those of any
point in Pennsylvania; that the iron
can be made at less cost and of excel
lent quality; and that the quantity o!
both iron and coal is practically mex
haustible, being sufficient to supply a
number of heavy blast furnaces fol-
generations" -.-,.

Indian Affairs.

Gen. Sheridan, with his accustomed
energy. has organized force for a
winter campaign against the trouble
some Indian tribes of the frontier. 1t
is q very imposing affair. At least
5000 troops (cavalry are engaged in.
it. including the regiment of Kansas
volunteers under Colonel Crawford,
who resigned the Governorship of the
State of Kansas to take the field
against the Indians; and they are di-
vided into eight bodies of varying
strength. They are moving simulta-
neously from the east, north and west
of the location of the hostile Indians,
and will cover the country and force
the savages toward the western part OF
the Indian Territory, or the region in
tersected by the 35th parallel of lati-
tude and 105th meridian. It's expect
ed that the converging columns will
thus be able to compel the Indians to
surrender and be placed on reservation,
or will chastise them into peace. The
hostile warriors number between three
and four thousand, and will hardly be
able to resist the forces now being sent
against them. They have never known
Uncle Sam before to take the ''war
path" with the winter coming on.
Gen. Sheridan fully comprehends
the situation, and knows that nothing
short of a complete crushing out of al
the hostile tribes will bring peace
Hence this winter campaign. BY II
he hopes to SO thin them out, by the
destruction of their lodges and fami-
lies, and by SO harassing the warriors
that when Spring comes they will be
so decimated and wearied out that they
can make no fight.
