year, declining s re-appointment for the purpose of engaging in his chosen profession-the practice of law. He settled in Gibson, this county, in July, 1872, and was admitted to the Illinois bar at the Supreme Court at Ottawa in September, 1872. During his residence in this county he has held various offices and posi- tions of trust, being at the present time Chairman of the Board of Supervisors, and is almost constantly before the people in the discharge of public trust. His life has been an open book to the people of this county, and commencing it we can do no better than quote what is said of him by the Gibson Courier on the oc- casion of his candidacy for the office of County Judge of Ford County. It says : " For ten years Mr. Yeomans has lived in our midst, and been one of our most esteemed citizens. He en- joys in a marked degree the respect and confidence of the com- munity, not only in his legal attainments, but in his character and worth as a man. Important trusts have been committed to his hands, in all of which he has proved faithful in the highest degree. His legal attainments and ability as an advocate com- bined with his integrity of character, and his faithfulness to the interests of his clients, have built for him a large and lucrative law practice. Personally, Mr. Yeomans is one of the most genial and pleasant of men. Being inured to labor and privations in early life, he is naturally devoid of the pride and egotism so dis- agreeable in some men, and is the social companion alike of the laborer and the scholar. He is the life of the social circles, and few men have more or warmer friends."

FORD COUNTY, ILLINOIS.
ILLINOIS.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION.
GEOGRAPHICAL POSITION .- Illinois is bounded on the north by Wisconsin, on the east by Lake Michigan, Indiana and Kentucky, on the south by Kentucky and Missouri, and on the west by Missouri and Iowa. It is separated from Kentucky by the Ohio River, and from Missouri and Iowa by the Mississippi. It lies between 37° 3' and 42° 30 north latitude, and between 10° 30' and 14° 25' longitude west from Washington. The greatest breadth of the State from east to west is 210 miles, and its extreme length from north to south 378 miles. The general form of the State is that of an ellipeoid, truncated at its northern extremity. The superficial arca is about 55,531 square miles, or 35,539,840 acres.
FACE OF THE COUNTRY .- The surface of the country is generally level or gently rolling, although in the southern part near the large rivers it is- quite broken and hilly. Illinois is properly termed The Prairie State ; for, in no other part of the country are there to be found such vast expanses of level prairie as here. To the eye of the observer they mark the plane of the horizon in every direction, and seem limitless as the ocean. As a general rule they occupy the higher grounds. The timber is principally confined to the lower lands, along the breaks and valleys of the streams. The highest lands in the State, are in the extreme northwestern part, and are known as The Mounds, which are about 1100 feet above the level of the sca. From Freeport southward there is a gradual descent through the entire length of the State, except where it is broken by a ridge crossing from east to west through Union, Johnson and Pope counties. This ridge attains an elevation of about 900 feet above the sea. while the elevation at Cairo is but 350 feet.
RIVERS .- The general slope of the water-shed is to the southwest, and nearly all the principai streams, after a general course in that direction, flow into the Mississippi. A few in the southeast portion of the State empty into the Wabash, while some small ones in the extreme south find their outlet in Ohio. The largest river flowing through the State is the Illinois, which is formed by the junction of the Des Planes and Kankakee, the former rising in Wiscon- sin and the latter in Indiana. . The Rock and Kaskaskia Rivers are streams of considerable im- portance-the first running through the northern and the latter through the southern portion
of the State. More than three-fourths of the circumference of the State is bounded by navigable rivers the Wabash on the east, the Ohio on the south, and the Mississippi on the west. The two last-named are among the largest in the world, and afford transportation for all classes of steamers. The Mississippi, the great " Father of Waters," extends along the western boun- dary a distance of over 500 miles.
LAKES .- A remarkable feature of Illinois is the almost entire absence of natural lakes or ponds. A few small ones only are found in the northeastern and southwestern parts of the State. There is, however, a coast line of about 60 miles, extending along Lake Michigan, one of the largest of the five great North American lakes.
SOIL AND CLIMATE .- As an agricultural State, Illinois stands without an equal. Possessing a soil of unsurpassed fertility, and a climatic range of five and a-half degrees of lati- tude, it yields a greater amount and variety of botanical production than any other State in the Union. No large tracts of worthless lands, such as characterize the topography of all the other States, are to be found here, but the farmer in all portions of the commonwealth obtains a rich reward for his labor. In the northern and central portions are raised in abundance nearly all those plants which are common to the North Temperate Zone, while in the vicinity of Cairo, both the animal and vegetable productions partake of . semi-tropical character. The amount of rain which falls each year is fully one-half greater at the southern extremity of the State than at the northern, and the average difference in temperature is about 10' Fahrenheit.
MINERALS .- No natural deposits of gold or silver are known to exist; yet the mineral productions of the State are not unimportant. Fire-clay, potter's clay, and valuable quarries of building-stone are found in various localities. Rich mines of lead exist in the vicinity of Galena, and iron-ore in considerable quantities is obtained in the southeastern part of the State. Coal is the most valuable mineral in Illinois. The coal fields are destined to grow more and more important, as their resources are developed, and their value can hardly be overestimated. The coal-bearing strata covers more than two-thirds of the entire surface of the State, and the mines are believed to be inexhaustible.
HISTORY.
Illinois was originally a part of Florida. In 1543 it became a Spanish colony. Northern Illinois was included in the territory granted in 1620 to the Plymouth Company by King James, and was therefore claimed by Great Britain. In 1673 the Mississippi River was dis- covered by Marquette and Joliet. In the same year they ascended the Illinois River; and in 1679 Robert Cavalier De La Salle made further discoveries, descending the Kankakee to its mouth. Kaskaskia and Cahokia, the oldest towns on the Mississippi River, were settled by the French in 1682. Illinois at this time contained but few white inhabitants. In 1699 it became a part of Louisiana, and so remained until 1763, when it was ceded to England. The white popula- tion now numbered about 3000, mostly French, the principal settlements being at Kaskaskis, Cahokia, Peoria, Prairie-Du-Rocher, Prairie-Du-Pont and Fort Charters. In 1778 Kaskaskia, Cahokia and other settlements were captured by four companies of Virginians, under Colonel Clarke, and in October of the same year an Act was passed by the Virginia Legislature, estab- lishing the " County of Illinois," which embraced all of Virginia northwest of the Ohio. In 1784 it was ceded by Virginia to the United States, and in 1787 Congress passed an Ordinance for the government of all territory northwest of the Ohio River, Arthur St. Clair being appointed the first governor. In 1803 Indiana, including Illinois and Wisconsin, was erected into a separate territory, and six years later, the present State of Illinois became a territory by itself. In 1812 it passed from the first to the second grade of territorial government, and sent a delegate to Congress. The right of suffrage was at this time extended to the people, without regard to property qualifications. On the 3d of December, 1818, Illinois was admitted into the Union as a sovereign and independent State. One section of land in each township was at once donated for school use, and two townships in the State for the use of a seminary. Since that time, the growth of Illinois has been astonishingly rapid, and it now ranks the fourth State in the Union in wealth, population and importance. The number of its white inhabitants in 1800 was only about 3000. In 1810 the number had increased to 12,282; in 1820 to 57,000; in 1830 to 157,000; in 1840 to 476,000; in 1850 to 851,470; in 1860 to 1,711,951; in 1865 to
2,141,510; in 1870 to 2,539,891; and in 1880 to 8,077,871. Chicago, its largest city, contains . population of over 500,000. The foreign population of Illinois is largely composed of Germans, Irish, Welsh, Scotch, French, Swiss, Swedes, Danes and Poles. Of the American- born, the north part of the State is settled principally from New York and New England, the central from Ohio, Pennsylvania and Virginia, and the southern from Kentucky, Tennessee and the Carolinas.
INTERNAL IMPROVEMENTS .- The works of art, though yet in their infancy, compare favorably with those of the older States. It is but fifty years since Illinois was ad- mitted into the Union, yet the number and value of her internal improvements already completed are immense. Over 8000 miles of railroad lines are in successful operation, and some 500 miles more are in process of construction. The number and character of the splen- did edifices which have been erected for court-houses, humane institutions, seminaries of learning and churches, and the other public works which adorn the State, bespeak at once the enterprise, intelligence and moral worth of the people. No doubt the next fifty years will witness even greater improvements than have taken place in the fifty that are past.
POLITICS .- Illinois is at present a Republican State. The northern part is almost exclusively controlled by the dominant party, while the central is generally Democratic, and the extreme southern-familiarly known as Egypt-is about equally divided between the two parties.
DISTINGUISHED MEN .- Consonant with the size of its rivers, the breadth of its prairies, the vastness of its resources, and the wonderful rapidity of its growth is the caliber of its public men. No State in the Union can boast of having furnished two more celebrated statesman than were DOUGLAS and LINCOLN, and no other State sways so great an influence over the destinies of the Republic at the present time, as does Illinois through her many hon- ored sons.
EXPLANATION OF GOVERNMENT SURVEYS.
All the surveys in Illinois are made from three established lines, known as the Second, Third and Fourth Principal Meridians. The Second Principal Meridian runs due north from the mouth of the Little Blue River in Indiana. The Third Principal Meridian, due north from the mouth of the Ohio River. The Fourth Principal Meridian starts at the mouth of the Illinois River, follows up the stream to a point opposite Beardstown, and runs from thence due north.
Townships lying West of the 3d Principal Meridian and the Illinois River, number North and South from a Base Line which runs due West from Beardstown. All the other Townships number North and South from a Base Line which runs through the centre of St. Clair County. Ranges number from the 4th Principal Meridian, West to the Mississippi River and East to the 3d Principal Meridian and the Illinois River, and from the 3d Principal Meridian West to the Illinois and Mississippi Rivers.
Ranges East of the 3d Principal Meridian and North of a line passing through the centre of Kankakee County, number from said Meridian East to the State Line. The other Ranges number from the 3d Principal Meridian, East to the Eastern line of Range Eleven, and West from the 2d Principal Meridian to the same line.
Each Township is 6 miles square, and is divided into Sections, which number from 1 to 36-number 1 being in the Northeast corner of the Township. Each regular section contains 640 acres. Fractional Townships are occasioned by inaccurate surveys. Fractional Section are due to the same cause, and are usually found on the North and West side of each Town ship. Correction Lines, running East and West, are established at distances of about 30 miler apart, for the purpose of preventing such errors as would naturally be ocomsioned by the cur vature of the earth.
