_ The surface of Ohio, extending over an area of 39,946 square 

 miles, is a plateau which reaches its greatest elevation in Logan 

 County. There is a ridge of highlands north of the middle of the 

 State which forms the water ridge, which with a second ridge, south 

 of this, are the only ones worthy of mention. The surface is farther 

 diversified by the deeply eroded river valleys, with their high bluffs, 

 and by numerous stretches of forest land. The State was once the
