DUTY OF TOWNSHIP AUDITORs.-
may not be generally known that a
general law of the last session of the
Legislature, approved April IL, 1866,
requires the bounty accounts of every
district to be carefully audited by the
Township Auditors, and prepare a
condensed statement of the condition
ofthese finances, and publish the same,
at the cost of the district for three sue
cessive weeks, in two papers," 1t not
only requires this duty to be performed
by the Township Auditors, but impoS-
es a penalty of fifty dollars upon each
Auditor who refuses to comply, one
half of which fine goes to the prosecu-
tor, and the other half to the school
fund OF the district. 1t provides, also,
that the Auditors shall notify the School
Directors of other parties having the
disbursement of the bounty funds, to
appear before them at such time as
the Auditor shall fix, for the purpose Of
enabling the Auditors to close up the
bounty accounts of the township for
the fiscal year.

NEW COUNTERFEITS.- follow
ing new Counterfeits have been put in
circulation, and the public are caution
ed to beware of them:
The detectives of the Treasury De-
partment have discovered new cOun-
terfeit on the $40 notes of the national
bank currency. The notes detected
purport to be the issue of the Flour
City National Bank of Rochester, New
York, and are said to be exceedingly
well executed, and are likely to de-
ceiVe.
A new and dangerous imitation OF
the five dollar National Bank note has
recently been put afioat. The engrav-
ing is said to be finely executed, and
the bill, in the main, we'll calculated to
deceive. Still it may readily be detect
ed. In the genuine the group of Col
umbus and his companions is compos-
ed of five persons; in the counterfeit
there are but fOur-the one in the back
ground at the extreme end, and most
extreme figure in hegroup, is missing
In the counterfeit, also, the extended
arm of Columbus is without hand
Bills of this description on five different
banks have already appeared, and 9th.
ers will doubtless soon follow.

FARMING.-There is not only pro-
found but concentrated wisdom in the
apt remark of noted and successful
English farmer-which our Bedford
county tillers of the soil may well heed
and profit thereby-that he fed his land
before it was hungry, rested it before it
was weary, and weededit before it was
foul. Seldom has so much agricultural
knowledge been condensed in a single
sentence.

JOHN w. BOWEN ESQ, is regular
~ authorized agent for this paper, and
will visit our friends throughout the
county, for the purpose of making coll
lections and taking subscritions. We
hope that his calls will be responded
to in the proper spirit. We havesome
$4,000 on our books, 81 900 OF which we
need very badly to pay debt we owe
in bank. In fact we must collect, ana
if mild measures will not answer our
purpose, we will be compelled to resort
to harsher ones. There are many per-
sons who pay promptly. To such,
thanks There are more who do not.
To such, duns, and finally acrits. We
desire to Cypress no man. We are will
ling to be liberal to those who are in
straitened circumstances. But if me
do not heed our request to settle, ifthey
treat our call for payment with con-
tempt, they have no further claim upon
our generosity. We have given away
enough in our business to keep a small
family five years. If we are to contin-
ue that sort of work, we want those
who can pay to come forward and do
it, and those who can't, to step up and
settle. OF course, we don't refer to
those who do pay. If this be not at
tended to soon, we will see whether
"some things can't be done as well as
Others.D

appreciation. In doing so, he accom-
panied the gift by letter, which said:

advertising, have amassed the fortune
which enables me to offer this testimo-
ny of regard and good will"

scamp.
