wern. Ay caasling the little aaiusaa. fn some of ska vssk forests of Russia. there gre sheep which live in a wild state; these animals are co much affected by the sound Of drums and srnmpets. that they begin to run. leap and dance. as soon as they hear them and they continue these motions until 0aFrcome hy ia tigue and excitement, they are no longer able Go fee from their enemies.
 TThe largest breed of sheep in the world, is the fat-taed variety: it is raised in Cen traI Asia, China. Persia, Africa, &c. The tail is a mass of fat, and often weighs 80 pounds. Another variety of Asia is the long tailed breed, with coarse wool its tail sometimes drags on the ground.
 Europe did not possess any fine woOlled sheep until the 18th century. The Roman writers meatiOn that fine wool and stuffs were imported from Spain, hut this only proves ahat the Spanish sheep were better than those of the rest of Europe. In the 12th century some African merchants sent to Cadiz for a few sheen, the wool of which was remarkable for fneness and whiteness. They were pur- chased by a Cadlz merchant, and placed on bis country estate, where they succeeded |; but he found no imtAtors.
 About the year 35O Peter King of Castile, naVInS Deeu HliOIIIltu ttldt 1uc'C "do " '"SC of sheep in Barbary which had precious fee ces. sent several persons into Morocco, to buy a great number of bucks. From this epoch commenced the reputation of the wool of Castile. In the 18th century, when Cardinal Ximenes was the Spanish Minister, com plants were made to him that the sheep of Castile had drteriorated. To relnedy y the evil, this minister determined 10 import a great number from Ba barry but as he could not obtain them by of negotiation, he kin dIed war. and invaded Morocco. The Span ish soldiers had orders to bring away as many sheep as they could; they piIlaged the coun- try, and returned to Spain with the precious plunder.
 The principal breeds of Spain, are those which the monks of the Escurial possess :; those of the convents of Gaudaloupe, and of Paular those of the duke d'Infantado, and of the counts of Negretti and Montareo. The sheep of the Escurial have the most beautiful wool those of GaudaIoupe are celebrated for their form and fleece; those of Pauiar have the head covered with wool, and their necks full of wrinkles those of lnfantadO are born with coarse wool, which afterwards becomes very fine; and those of Negretti have strong and robust body, with fine wool. All these races are merinoes, and were formerly the travelling focks of Spain; since the late wars they have become stationary. All the tine races of sheep which ae now in Europe, were . derived from the merlnoes in Spain.

Washington Thursday Feb. l4
 have not found time hitherto to notice the highly interesting debate that occurred in the Senate during Monday and Tuesday, on the report ofa Select Com mlttee appoed to revise the rules of that body. The great question which has produced all this discusslon was an alteration of the 9th rule, to allow the Vice President to call to order for offensive words ut- tered in debate and this question, although not as natural consequence, brought under consideration the conduct ot Mir. Calhoun, the winter ot 26-2 in re- training from calling Mir. Randolph order and af- terwards (ustfyng this conduct, the gronnd that the presiding officer had no right to call to order for words uttered m debate.
 The constitutional question has been pretty tho roughly canvassed. The friends of Mir. Calhoun of course. went into some very abstruse arguments to sustain hls decision. The aterent potrer of the Vice President to act a in calling order, or as was characterised, stopping debate, every way denied. \ ou can easily imagine, that thls idea of inherent power, purely abstract in se susceptible of be- ing myshed by legal subtIty and in fact, liable to be misunderstood, was powerful instrument m the hands of such casufsts Tasewel, Van Buren, Ben- ton, White, Rowan, and their companions. But these sophlstrles were opposed by the common sense of Chambers, Bell. Smith, South Carolina and Barton, of the arguments of Mr. Calhouns friends was-and was also hs own--that the presiding officer had none but mlnsterial poweri that his power was not judlca l--and hence, that although he was empowered to keep order in every other respect ne was not authorized to interfere in any debae.- 10 thls 1t was very ably answered. that if the Vice President had min,sterial power, he must have der we'd 1t from some source, and not given by the constitution by the rules of the Senate it was alr supposiuOn that the power incidental to his staon and extended to calls oforder of every descrp ton In answer to the idea that the presiding officer had no inherent power, twas argued that the const

GoUeymor's MeSsage.-We cannot pretend to de- scribe the feelings inspired by the Governors Tariff Message, published by Saturday, in the public mnd. It is considered, what it certainly is, an invita- ton to Virginia to secede from the Union IL holds out brilliant prospects of happiness and prosperity, cdent to a state of Independence. But let not the other States of the Union be uneasy. The People of Virginia have no idea of separatingfrom the Union.- We have much to say the subject of that Message, for ourselves and correspondents should be neces- sary. We will not pretend to anticipate the course of the Legislature the subject. Discerning men can perceive the trepidaton produced by the Governors bunder, from the bashfulness of the Enquirer. Two publications days have intervened since the Message sent, and it has not yet appeared in that paper Are the gentlemen afraid of it are they ashamed oft?

 The House of Representatives adjourned from yesterday, till Monday, in order to allow an opportunity for an exhibition of Deaf and Dumb pupils in the Hal! of the House. Mir. Galaudet, the princi pal of the Hartford Insti- tuition. MT. Weld from Philadelphia, Dr. Nc Auley from New Y ork .and several of the pu- pills from the New York institution are here for the purpose of offering to the members of Congress a practical illustration of the bene- fits which nsay he conferred by education.up- on these unfortunates of the human race. At 1e o'clock to day, the Hall of Representatives was crowded for the purpose of witnessing this interesting spectacle. The President, Vice President. Chief Justice Marshal. and most of the members of both Houses, with all our visitors ofthe fair sex were present. Mr. Weld commenced with brief theoretical and practical sketch of the advantages of these in- stitutions. The theoretical part was neat, & practical part was interesting. When he had concluded he proceeded to the examination of one of these pupils, fine boy of apparent ly about ten or twelve years of age, who dis played a quickness of perception, vivacty of mind and an intelligence of gesticuation which took possession of the sympathies of the audience by coup de main. To him suc- ceeded tive more advanced pupils, who evin- ced intellectual powers and discrimination of no ordinary excellence, Some of the qups- tions put were of the most difficult character. The President required the distinction to be drawn between 'irrefragibIe" and ''incontro- vertibe." The Vice President asked for the difference to be pointed out between power and right Mir. Speaker Stevenson asked the name of him who had been the brightest example of glory. To the last question the pupil answered-' God who came on earth to save sinners" On being told to limit his decision to human beings. he wrote" per haps Buonaparte, perhaps Whashington. The President requested MT. Weld to put lesson to the pupils, the beautiful line in Pope's Mes siah-

 The object of exhibiting these pupils, is to obtain the aid of Government for the estab- lishment of Deaf and Dumb Asylum in Pennsylvania. May the effort be successful. The Government have always given their aid to institutions in Connecticut and Kentucky.
