FOR THE MESSENGER.  Extract of a letter from a geltlement in Greenfield, Huron county, Ohio, to a friend in Halifax, Vt.
GREENFIELD, Jan. 7th, 1833.
     "I have long had, sir, an ardent desire for you to see this part of our country.  I known the scepticism which generally prevails among the residents of the old States with regard to the testimony of emigrants to the west.  I know too that many persons in a new country, anxious to enjoy the society of their friends & associates who are left behind, in the enjoyment of their new home and the new scenery that surrounds them, may look too much on the fair side of things, and paint the advantages, both present and prospective, in too high colors.  But I have no wish to deceive anyone, especially a friend.  I have been here more than two years, and have observed the nature and operation of things in this region, in some degree, and now write with caution & reserve.
     That part of Ohio bordering on the lake, for fifty miles back, is certainly an important country, and its importance is just beginning to appear.  The facilities for crossing the lake with produce, the competition of vessels and boats on the lake, and on the Erie canal, are constantly increasing the price of all kinds of produce.  The opening of the British coloniel ports has, in effect, brought Montreal & Quebec, via the Welland canal, almost to the borders of Ohio.  The coolness of the Canadian climate renders those ports an excellent market for pork, both in the hog and in the barrel.  I can give you no idea of the immense quantity of pork produced here.  There has never been so much in one season before, and it never commanded a price so high, although it has been rising in value for several years. - This season has been remarkable for mast, (so called here, which means all kinds of nuts collectively.)  Six-eighths of the forest timber here is white oak, and the acorns in particular abundant, being so thick on the ground that a man might scrape up many bushels in a day.  Although the country is full of hogs, & which are all good pork, still a large quantity of mast will rot on the ground or grow in the spring.  Farmers who have killed thirty hogs have generally fed them on corn for two or three weeks only.  The market price at the lake is $3.50 for 200, and $5.50 for 300 pork; and a man can raise six hogs here as easy as one with you.
     "This country is well adapted to the growth of wheat, and the people here are just beginning to turn their attention to the culture of this kind of grain.  We have two good flouring mills at Peru, five miles north of me, and a new one is going up in this township.  At Venice, near the lake, twenty miles north of here, a gentleman from Buffalo is now erecting a large flouring mill with ten run of stones, to commence running the first of March.  He pays now 83 cents per bushel for wheat, and it is believed that it will be worth $1.00 next spring.  I mention these circumstances to show the importance of a circumjacent country, almost every acre of which is suitable for the cultivation of wheat, excepting the river bottoms, which are better for corn - on them wheat grows too rank and lodges.  The poorest lands bear the best wheat and oats."
     "We have had no very cold weather this winter.  The ground has been frozen a week or two in December, and has been twice covered with snow an inch deep for a few days.  The weather has been for several days, and is now, like September.  But last winter is was not so; we had two months of cold weather, cold enough for Vermont, though but little snow and good sleighing.
     "I believe, sir, you would be pleased with the prospect of a settlement in this country, which is every day growing better while yours is growing worse.  Real estate here is rising in value; villages are springing up in all parts.

     On the first of July last, Negosheik and Negoneg_, two Indians, were hung at Norwalk, Huron co., Ohio, in pursuance of a sentence of court, pronounced against them in May last, for the murder of Wood and Bishop on Carrying River.
     The two Indians (says the W. Reserve Chronicle) who were executed, at Huron, for the murder of Wood and Bishop, suffered the sentence of the law with much unconcern, any further than that they hated to appear before the Great Spirit with halters about their necks, and should have preferred being shot or tomahawked, and one would have been glad to live till he had killed six more white people, in order to make up the even number of twenty, having as yet, killed but fourteen.
