HIGH FEEDING.

Th.connty.ef Bidsard has added it's name
to the roll Of those patriotic counties of Vir-
g!nia. which. in their zaal fnr the supslv of
. the public table, have lately dished M plen-
tiful banquet Of Resolutions, with patriotic
sance. They also-.he farmers of Be,irarl-
wri'. down. v"te and print that ''shey will
promptly turn OYER to the Gnvernmen; their

70 th- Government, or tn consumers, At the

We bcSiu to be surf-ited with Resolutions:
they are fatulent food: tonjours pcrdrir is
uli"le'ome to no stomach, and the human nr-
pstite desircs change little bread or 70

A di.tinguishcd citizen or Bedford sends
word to tha newspapers, indeed, that at the
nsstin. which cosl;ed these Resolutions "rhs
spirit Of the people was sxsslless" We ad-
nit chat Resolutions ,ouBices, dressed Ia pa

meant to pave HE'LL and 81 they went and did
even as the neighhors. The Government
and tie consumers have derived no nourish
