Will you allow through you to call the ehtion Of
the Confederate authorities several grievancsS fEom
which people will probably suffer severely. First ON
he list h in reference to -four. The Government pays the
farmers SIS per buahe for wheat the farmers wiz in
this State eel to outside parties for less than $40 per bush
ell and if that price paid the Government impresses the
wheat This action OF the Government has caused the only
Flour Mill in this place to stop work. Tbs remedy
this is: the Government ought either to allow Hiers to
buy wheat on the best terms they conscrpt the
farmers who refuse to sell ths people wheat at 50 per
bushel
The second grievance is the monopoly by the Government
OF the Railroad transportation causing our people to
lose heavily by the manufacture of SALT which viii soon
break that business and short supply of bacon
fer the Government as well the people.
The third grievance the prohibition Of the expectation
