WINDSOR.

This rather unpretending township that
for ms the south west corner of the coun-
ty, is decidedly good one, and the lar
mers are correspondingly con Portable
and W ell to d. That it is good dairy
township, appears from the extent of its
cheese manufactures. Its factory is located
at the corners, under the prophet orship
of Mr.. S. E.Carter, of Painesville aided by
the efficien cy of Mr.. Robt. Mckinney as
Superint endent, and manipulation. When
running up to its full capacity it turns
out SO, 40 pound cheeses day, of supe-
rior quality. Its October make has been
all disposed of at between thirteen and
fourteen cents. Its excellency is attribu-
ted in part, at least, to the process of grind
ing the curd, process that many ma
kers lisapprove and discard, using the ut
most care to avoid breaking it as far
as possible, while stirring the mass and
releasing the whey. The falling off OF
feed has reduced the number of cheeses
made, TO half the full number The
Windsor factory, it was, that made, the
big cheese of the county last season.
This enormous cheese weighed when
cured, 4,181 pounds, and was sent to the
Boston Market, and such was the de-
mand for it, that it was cut up and sold
in the brief space of eight hours The
press. of course, was made on purpose,
about the size of common cider mill
press, and the hoop resembles an ordina-
ry brewery vat The work OF turning,
was secnred by machinery especially pre-
pared. The factory is one of the best
regulated and best managed in the county.
The milk is all sold to the proprietor on
delivery, and the products of the factory,
is entirely at his own disposal.
A factory for the manufat ture of cheese
boxes, is carried on adjoining. by Mr.. Le-
vi Hill, which is considered very COM
plete affair, manufacturing some 30 or %
thousand year, supplying various fac
tories about the county. His facilities in
obtaining timber, and adaptation. of ma
chinery, for dispa iching work, give this
factory advantages over many others.
There are two stores at the corners,
R. A. Bradley's and that of Henderson
and Leslie, both of which have a fair
run OF trade. A third is being filed up
by Penn. parties, and to be opened in
few days. There are some good houses
in the place, and others gong up. This
is the place of residence OF Freeman
Smith, Esq, prominent lawyer of the
Ashtabula bar.
Landlord Henderson, a brother of the
AustiDburg HendersoEs, presides over
the very comfortable and popular hotel
ofthe place, and is evidently the ri ght
man in the right place In raising cab
bage, he can defy the county, as his
garden presents numerous specimens,
that Notwithstanding. the ravages of the
worm, will kick the beam at 20 pounds.
The quarries of this township are
source of siderable revenue, as the
stone which are of excellent quality for
building purposes, are transported in va
rious directions about this and adjoining
counties, and are in much demand.
An Andover daily mail is run FROM
Orwell TO Chardon, but by the time sched-
ule, fer some unaccountable reason, it
leaves Orwell, just before the arrival of
the A, Y 6 P train from Ashtabula, in
the morning, and therefore the matter
lies over "a hours. p NJ Stone shoald
