FROM ILLINOIS.

De Witt County ILL.,, September 10.
EDITOR DEMOCRAT-I find that much valuable
information and knowledge may be collected
and be preserved by contributing to your valua.
BILE paper. Permit me then to CLEAN some of the
events connected with the above county from
"Pioneer" -a.
This county is few miles north, and east OF
the center OF the State, and bounded on the
north by Mclean the county, wrote you from
before, and from which may write again. This
county comprises thirteen townships, and two.
thirds of Its land may be considered improved,
from which last year was gathered 1876 900 bushels
of corn; wheat, 200 900 bushels. This county Is
also supplied with five railroads. The Illinois
Central extends across the county In a north and
south direction, passing through the county seat
The Gilman, Clinton and Springfield railroad
traverses IT, northeast and soulhwe st, connecting
Farmer City, De Witt, Marion, Clinton and Ken
ney. The Bloomington Western railroad crosses
northeast corner Of the county at farmer City.
This region is fairly supplied with water, Kick
apoo river drains the northwest portion Of the
county and the remainder is water9d by Salt
creek which, with its various branches, flows
southwest and west into the sangamon. From
history we learn that this county was formerly
roamed over by the Pottowatamie and Kickapoo
Indians They seem to have been allies, and Of
the head Of the north branch OF Salt creek and of
the head Of Kickapoo creek, had a village, and is
still known as Old Town Timber The Kickspoo
river ia named from the tribe of the same name,
who, 1t is said, never moested the settlers but
assisted In hunting and fishing in which avoca-
ton the first settlers who were Kentuckisns and
Tennesseeans were chiefly engaged. On the
Kickapoo river, Zion shugert built the first grist
mill in the county during the spring of 1885. A
school house was erected at Waynesville, and the
first barber was MI. Mclaughlin. The wheat
in this county is very good and was well har,
vested. Corn is good, though at time it
was feared 1t would be ruined in consequence of
the dry weather at the time 1t was sprouung.
There will be no peaches, but the rest of fruit
will be In abundance
