One of these, very appropriately called
" Buzzard:s Roost," was surprised by the
police night before last, and number of

dismissed by the Mayor, with a reprimand
and caution against futcrc misdemcan-

bones, erected at considerable cost by b.
\. Davis, ESD. a prominent merchant here
for Il number of years. There was such
great accumulation of bones around the
city during the siege, that Mr.. Davis
thought he might benefit himself and rem
der great service to the neighboring
farmers by converting them into manure.
He offered fair price for the raw mate
rial, and an immense quantity, amounting
TO hundreds of tons, was brought in from
the fields. His fixtures for reducing 1t
were very complete, and he succeeded III
preparing the finest article that has come
under my observation at any time. But
it did not take with the farmers. Their
prejudices in favor Of guano was so strong
that they preferred it at from ninety to one
hundred and twenty dollars per ton, to

should have been enjoyed ut home. This
j. ycry much to be regretted. Our lands
need its application very much, and our
farmers the profits resulting from 1t still
more. Their ignorance concerning its va
luc may be in measure pardonablc, from
the fact that all the bone manure brought
here from the north before the war was
greatly adulteratcd; but still every intclll-

THr BsScrf AND THE BAR.-The Attorney
General of the United States recently per-
plexed o citizen who called on him by
asking question in regard to the habits of
q Judge who ofliciated in the district from
which the said citizen came. The particu-
lar point of the inquiry of the Attorney
General related to the judges convivial, or
rather his bibulous, tendencies. The citizen
thus Intercepted was not very prompt or
direct in his answers, and even when the
pcrtinacious law officer of the Government
put the query in the blunt form OF Don't
he frequently get drunk, SIR the inter-
rogatcd gentleman still sought refuge IN
the rather vague answer: I" " ell, sir, IN
my country it is very difficult to determine
when gentleman is drunk; the condition
of mind and body produced by m indni'
gcncc in exhilcrating liquids is variously re-
garded BY different persons, and has so
many degrees and gradations that no gene
raj standard has yet been recognized or
established" "Oh," replied the Federal
dignitary, "you can certainly answer
whether you have ever seen him on the
bench under the influence of liquor"
:" Well" answered the catechlsed and bad
ccrcd gentleman, a don't know but what
| have sometimes thought the Judge has
been little too long at the bar to preside
with efficiency on the bench" The At
torncv- General seemed to be satisfied with
this answer, and the witness retired.-

RoCXBRIDGE COUNTY, Va, July 10, 1866.
To the Editors Of the Richm0nd Dispatch
Those of our farmers who have finished
their harvest are smiling to-day over the
copious showers that have been steadily
falling upon the thirsty meadows. Rain
was much needed; and who knows but
that these generous clouds will prove the
"horn of plenty" which kind Provi-
d.nce is iIvcrting to fill this noble valley
with abundance of bread. Wheat is much
better than was expected, and the corn
looks very fair.
But these commonplace matters aside.
Where are all the pleasure and
springS-gocrS this season? Are all you
Tuckahocs in such splendid plight that

RocKRRIDGE ALUM SPRINGS, July Q.

10 tie Editors Of the Richmond Dj$pdtch:
know an eminent minister who insists
that "habit is habit" None the less
true is it that "comtort is comfort" This
last important and novel truth receives
fresh illustration from my three days stay
at this famous watering-placc. This spot,
with fine natural advantages, has been
improved with a degree of good taste and
attention 10 the real comfort OF the guests
greater than is found at any other watering
place with which am acquainted. 1t is
happily exempt from any trace of the ra-
wages of war. One, therefore, who was in
the habit of rcsorting hither six or eight
years since, finds himself almost scduced
into forgettulnesS of the terrible past, and
easily sinks into the delicious repose from
the strites of life which constitutes the
chief charm of q summer residence in these
mountains.
OF the value of the Rockbridgc alum
waterit were an impertinence to speak.
One thing is noticeable among the visitors
now here. 1t is apparent that they come
for health-not pleasure only. That one
may read in the faces of those who gather
around the richly-ladcn table. The dcvout
man who looks around on this company
will hardly fail to breathe the silent prayer
THAT all these, by the divine blessing on
the curative agencies here employed, may
be restored TO their homes and friends with
rctStablished health.
The number of visitors now here is about
seventy fve-all from Maryland, Virginia,
and the States south. 1t is reasonable to
expect ere long q considerable increase in
the number. Nopains seem to be spared
on the part of the gentlemanly proprietor,
Mr.. Frazier, and his polite assistants,to do
whatever may contribute TO the comfort
and happiness of their guests.
Yesterday we had the pleasure of hear
ing a sound, practical discourse from Rev.
A. L. Dickinson, of your city. Mr.. Dick
inson leaves to-day. hope we shall not
be left without religious services next

Our little town, like the rest Of creation,

iced lemonade, saltwater, and may be

sultry a. has been the weather (thc Their

around us. For instance, the Mcthodists
determined the other day TO build new
church and parsonage, to cost twenty five
thousand dollars. The figures made some
catch their breath; but one gentleman
pushed it through, giving five thousand
dollars and two lots worth five thousand
dollars mere. The rest Of the members
came 10 the rescue, and between fifteen
and seventeen thousand dollars Of the mo-

Our town is building up. Our active

Another item of interest. The mechanics
of the town have formed an association for
their mutual improvement and protection.
