Ewes, four tix-toothed Ewes, and four other ailed
or broken-mouthed Ewes, all of the true Merino

fheep were confiderably larger than thole fold by his

were equal, if not fupetior, to any before fold, in

dants, and he rode fo much before the guard, that
eliery body could eafily fee him. He war. in a plain
uniform, his hat without any lace or feather. The
populace Shouted as he went along, arid he nodded
gratioufly all round to them, but did not take tiff his
hat, except when he paired the guard. He examined
