Bowel complaints, which are common, in a mild form in the fall season, this year, were more numerous and of a more malignant character than usus, assuming in one small subdivision, in the southeast part, rather the character of an epidemic; influenced or modified, in most all instances by those causes, which in other parts of the country, contributed greatly to the production of the epidemic cholera. In other respects, this county has preserved her unusually good character for health, and still continues to be a place of refuge for many persons during the prevalence of epidemics in other parts of the country. Water: In the springs is soft or sandstone and hard or lime stone, about an equal amount of each; in wells, usually soft. Many good chalybeate springs are found in this district. Soil: Warm sandy loam on the bottoms, warm limestone on the rolling, and sandy clay and clay soils on the table lands. Timber: White, black, Pine, Swamp and Chestnut Oak, Hickory of all kinds, White and Black Walnut, Sugar, Maple, Beach, Buckeye, Ash, Elm, Poplar and Chestnunt.
