R9 The Post Masters in rebel
States who were indebted to the
Department at the time the rebellion
broke out, for stamps and news
paper postage, are likely to feel the
effect of the act of Congress passed
last winter, making the real estate of
the Post master and his securities,
liable TO attachment for the debt
Quite an increase of revenue is an
ticipated by the Department, from
this source. Thus justice is being
meted out to these villains. No
class OF officials in the South used
their official power, influence and
means to further the interests of the
rebellion than Post masters. They
rifled the mails for evidence against
Union men, and all plunder obtained
was promptly converted to the bene-
fit of the Confederacy. A little i'm
prieonment for such villains, would
not be amiss.

among the men, giving them a. out

~ Farmers of old Gallia, a word

E~ Farmers OF old Gallia, q wore
with you. The incessant rains Of
the past ten days have not only re-
tarded your planting operations Abu.
to a great extent, rendered your la
Dor in April of very little account.
Your corn fields if planted have been
so covered with water as to prevent
the terminating of the seed. If not
planted, the length of time required
to dry the ground sufficiently, Will
find the. season rather far advanced,
to ensure a good crop. Your cam;
paign for 1855 has certainly opened
under a most disadvantageous as
pect, and it will require all your en-.
ergies to counteract the evils thus far
showered upon you.
1t is to be hoped that that portion
of the planting season yet left you,
will prove more propitious. But
great deal depends on the manner in
which you improve it. Never in the
history of this country, was a good
crop more imperatively demanded
than in 1865. Vast portions OF the
country must be supplied with food
for. one year from the North. A
short crop in the one, SECTION, will
entail unheard of misery upon the
other. 1t can only besavoided by
extraordinary efforts on part of
northern farmers. The time to put
forth those efforts, is very short
Labor must be largely increased.
The force engaged in planting and
re-planting must be doubled. For
tunately the closing up of the war.
has rendered it more abundant than
in 1864. Wages may be high, mas
much as prices of food are still very
high. But that should not deter you
from procuring it. Fifty or one hun
drei dollars expended for additional
help in getting your crop of corn
planted. will be well invested, by the
return made therefrom in harvest.
Prices of grain are likely to be re-
munerative. They certainly will,
unless larger crops are raised than
can now be reasonably anticipated.
The flood seems to be general all
over the country. Our exchanges
show that in other counties they
have suffered as badly as this There
fore the deficiency must be as
general.
Now there is little or no use in re
signing yourselves to your apparent
fate. Providence may so direct the
growing season that your lost labor
in May, will be fully made up be
fore fall. Go to work at once then,
as soon as practicable in putting in |
seea--Fhat- done,- you have done
your part and the rest remains with |
Him who has promised that while
time-endures, seed time and harvest
shah not fail.
Your crops of wheat and grass
never looked better than now. They !
atJeast, are fully up to your expec-
tations, and are so far advanced, as
TO require very little more rain to
secure good crops.
While you are now hindered from
planting, look up re-inforcements for
the field, when you can resume ope
rations. Don't wait until ready to
plant and then lose valuable time
