ing the Commission established under the
Treaty Of Client, was taken up, and, after some
discussion, laid on the table. The Tariff Bill
was taken up and discussed. The amendment
off red by Mr.. Smith Of Md. imposing duty
Of two cents pound on sheathiug copper, was
nega,ived. The amendment nov, pending is
one offered by Mr. Fvoie, striking out The third
section Of the bill, which imposes duties on
hemp, fax, mo!asses and other articles.
In the House of Representatives, there Was a
trief discussion, on moton ct Mr.. Sterlgere, TO
discharge the Committee OF the whole from
the further consideration Sl the hePoiuuohary

drawn, as il appeared that a section containing
an appropriation for the soldiers had not been
discussed in Committee, and the Speaker
decided tina, the section could not be acted on,
acc ording to the rules Of the House, until such
discussion had taken place. The House then
took up the act authorizing subscription to

sheep consist in their combining the great requisites of
Fine Wool and greater quantity of fine grained and
favored mn,t"n at less expense Than any other breed;
their hardness, and kindly disposition to taen at an
early age, the uniform quality oftheirf Fleece, and be-
ing very prolific, and good nurses, the Ewes generally
rearing one third more Lambs than their number, or
as IS lambs to so The average weight of their
quarters is 20 pounds, at two years old. BY expert
ments made in this country and in England they are
found to be admirably calculated for crossing with the
Merino the Cross Breed possessing the size and
beauty Of the Sou,h-Down, with the wool of the Me-
rno.
The above Sheep were imported by John Hare

from the flock of the Duke of Bedford. The weight
Of one of the Bucks is rising of 2l0 pounds.
