FOURTEEN PAYMAsTgRs IMPLICATED IN
FRAUDs.-The Richmond CORES sponden
of the New York Herald, under date oi
The 29d, writes:
|! is now believed and asserted tina,
fourteen paymsslers in this department
are involved with Col. Bnney in the al.
legged frauds growing out OF The issuance
Of the seyen-lhirnes. 1t appears that the
Norfolk Bank has had seven millions OF
these seven.l .lhHues, six millions and a
half OF which have actually found their
way into the hands Of the paymasters. A
rigid investigation is going on, and mas
proceeded so far that there is no ohJec-
non, so far as ! can learn, to these facts
being made public, 1t is further believed
that large number of Northern paymas-
Iers are involved in similar transactions,
who have had charge o disbursements at
depoIs and other Northern rendezvous
where troops have been sent to be paid of,

Bedford inquirer. [volume] (Bedford, Pa.) 1857-1884, 1865-10-06

Mr.. EDlToR,-I have been raising roots for
a number Of years and have tried various
ways for keeping them in winter, and have
found that by burying them in the field they
viii come out better in the spring than any
way I have ever tried. IF there is no danger
of water getting in 4he heap, make a long
one in the middle of my patch of roots; after
pulling a few rows take the horses and plow
and make a trench by throwing furrow each
way. The roots can be wheeled in from each
way or hauled with cart. After topping the
heap to the requisite height, / put little
straw on, and then about sixinches ofearth--
this is spanked down about every eight feet
/ stand a wisk of straw upwrght for chin
neys to let the dampness escape, as they will
sweat. Before freezing weather, haul some
long manure and put on the heap.
A long heap has this advaDtage-yon can
work at each end and cover the middle and
when you take them out, open one end only,
and after taking out what you want, throw
some manure on to prevent them freezing.
Should there be danger of water, put the
heap OH the top Of the ground; this takes q
little more time to cover them. have had
as much as FIVE hundred bushels of turnips in
q heap of this kind. Carrots and ruta bagas
1 bury in the same way. s.

ROAD MAsHINGs.

do not think that we farmers dispose of
the washings of the highways as proftably as
we might. There are few farms bordering
upon roads, that might notreceive the benefit
Of these washings. Even if deep inlet
should be necessary, culbert built through
high embankment, and receptacle, as a
pond, inside the field, from which the impreg-
mated water might be drawn to various parts
ofthe premesies, while the pond itself would
afford many cart-loadsofrich earth--It wonld
be advisable to have these washings. These
washings contain soluble salts ofmuch value /;
but il, upon low lands, nothing but sand were
received, it wouldprove of much benefit to
the heavy soils usually found in these situa-
TONS
One thing, however, has tobe remembered
that after July for three months, these wash
ings should be rejected, if we do not wish
our lands stocked with every kind of abom-
Unable weed. Some people, who do not love
their neighbcrs as themselves, still persist in
