Waltonvillo is a young town of six years' growth, situatod on tho W. 0. & W. railroad, running from Mt. Vernon to Ohostor, where tho Southorn Illinois is looatod. Waltonvillo has fivo 8toros, two ohuroh os, mill, Bhops, oto. Tho oounty soot of this (Jefferson) oounty is Mount Vernon, containing 8,000 inhabi tants, or about four times as largo as Marion, Ky. "Wo aro in tho southwost part of the county, lowing college is 12 miles southeast of us in Franklin county. This is a fine sohool, whoro many from Orittendendou oounty, Ky., attended, inoluding Senator Doboo, tho Oruco brothers, Jacobs boys, and many others. This is conpiderod tho best part of tho county for farming, and tho farmers are generally wealthy; for instance, there are six of tho Man- non brothers around mo, oaoh ono owning from 1,000 to 2,400 acres apiece; stook barns are built hero at a oost of from $1,000 to $1,500. This is a good stook country and bettor adapted to grass and wheat than anything else, flay is ship-pod from hero to Ky. I am buying first-class bailed timothy for $10.00 and bailed rod top at $7.00 por ton, and wo think this is terribly high for hay hero. I have soon ono farmer order a special engine and ten cars justto ship his own stock in. Many farmers hero have from 75 to 200 young mulos apioco Tho next day after somo of our boys came hero from Crittenden wo were driving through Knob prairie, looking at the largo pastures and fine cattle, ono of the boys asked me what made that farmer keep domostio wrapped around tho bodies of his cattle whon I explained tho stook of ho raised he let the other boys ask tho rest of tho questions Now in regard to health, I have traveled over sixteen of Undo Sam's States, and I know of no hoalthior place than this east of Oklahoma. For instance, Sheller is a town two miles west of mp; twD years ago a good dootor moved there and. had all tho practice in and around town, and yet did. not got enough praotico to support his family and had to hunt a now location. Now, in rogard to work, will say I have plenty, but would not advise any more to oomo now, as we havo a little winter here as well as in Kentucky. There aro 1G5 of us here from Crittenden county, and the people hero havo namod my placo tho Kontuoky town. Tho farmers horo on most roads havo a froe delivery rural mail vico; this is a wonderful help to thorn and eavos many milos ride; bosidos, you get your mail regular Ono getting accustomed to this system would miss it ar muoh as you would tho railroad in Crittenden. .
