THE SOLDIERS HOME.
Sensational Developments in the Inyesti-
CATION by Some Private Letters.

DAYTON, o., Aug. l3.-The congressional in
vestigating committee continued its examina-
ton at the Soldiers Home; thirtyshve men,
picked haphazard, testified that they had no
complaint. They heard growing at the
strict discipline, but well behaved men
were generally contented. The press
have published a one-sided story,
and thereby increased the complaint both of
soldiers and citizens, against Gen. Patrick. Pri-
waite letters were read of Gen. Rosecrans's and
Gen. FrankIin's, IN which Gen. Rosecrans inti-
mates that Patrick would be removed from the
governorship for political reasons; that the oppo-
sition Of Murray was such that Gen. Franklin
mightb defeated for President of the board of
managerso of the oldiers Home. Mr.. Murray, who
is avery candid, judicious member from that
district, says it viii cost the Democracy from
500 to 1,5O0 votes in his district TO keep General
Patrick. General Franklin replied that General
Rosecrans was misinformed about Patricks pop
ularity, and Murray's statement was not
true. If we believe Murray's statement, he
should be investigated. Knowing Patrick, he
could not entertain the idea of advocating his
dismissal. Murray pledged to get me out, and I
note that he is INSCRIPTIONS in his effort to
obtain that result. The reading of the letters
causedgonsternation with Rosecrans. Murray and
Slocu1n. The chapman asked If these letters
were not private. Answered in the affirmative.
said they were private letters, and General
Patrick answered: You win have to
settle that with General Franklin. /
certainly would not have used them without au-
thority. General Rosecrans simply wants it
understood that those are private correspond
ence. The committee adjourned confused ana
staggered. and tonight were in conference to
make amends.

The people, as a whole, seldom make mistakes,

are based entirely on what the people say Hoods

Measuring standing Grain.

Farm, Field and Fireside.
An officer in the English navy has constructed
a table for estimating, with all needful accuracy,
the amount of wheat on an acre of land, before
it is harvested. The estimate can be made as
soon as the grain is ripe. Make a wood or iron
frame one yard square, carefully let it down
over the standing grain, and then shell and
weigh all the grain on the straws belonging in
side that frame. If Il circular crop form, Y as he
calls it, is more convenient, make it six feet nine
and aquarter inches in diameter, of haif-inch
iron. From his elaborate table, we extract the
following.
