MANAGEMENT OF SHEEP.


SIR-As I have seen but little in the
Cultivator on the management Of sheep,
and am interested in that part of agri.
cultural pursuits, Venture to direct to
you few thoughts in hopes it may call
she attention Of others to the subject,
more competent than myself 1t is al.
lowed by all as am informed, that the
grub in the head Of sheep is caused by
fly in the hot sc ason (; to avoid the
bad effects of which, / would recon-.
mend that they have better pasture in
the months OF July and August, SO as
to be able 10 get their supply of food
without being obliged to feed in the mid.
die of the day. ! have observed that
sheep will do well on very short feed
early in the season, and think it best if
they are TO be kept short, it should be
done at that time, and reserve for them
good feed through the hot season.
Flocks Of sheep kept close are more
likely to be troubled with them than
those well kept, and some suppose
want of strength to throw off the grub
makes the difference, but think it is
being under the necessity Of feeding in
the heat of the day. Short keeping
makes fine wool, but | believe it is best
for every wool grower MOTTO overstock,
but keep well what he does keep. My
) practice has been, 10 select in the fall
my poores. sheep from the others and
give them better feed, so that all shall
be in good condition for winter; in
managing in that way, | have lost less
aheep in winter than in summer-my
lambs ! wean the latter part Of August,
and give them the best feed have till
winter /; about the first Of November,
or whenever the feed becomes injured
with frost, ! beeip TO feed them oats in
the sheaf to 60 or 70 lambs | give

A MAN OF HIS WORD.

Inc following whimsical cFcuWs
stance happened some time ago in Xii.
kenny, Ireland. A tailor, who was
married to a very sickIy woman, grew
euamored Of young girl who lived in
his neighborhood and, on certain con-
ditions, he agreed to give her promise
in writing, to marry her on the demise
Of his rib; in consequence of which,
MIR. Snip passed her the folio wing Gu
rious note of hand :--'sIn two days af-
ter the demise Of my present wife, |
promise to marry Mary Moran or OF.
der, value received, under penalty
of fifty pounds sterling. Given under
my hand this sixteenth day Of May, etc.
-JER. SULLIVAN" Shortly after Ma
ry received the above note, she died,
leaving it endorsed TO female friend,
who also took fever. and died before
the tailor's wife: however, on her sick
bed, she also endorsed the note and
gave it to cousin, whom the tailor abb
soluIely married, agreeable TO endorse
ment, in two days after the death of his
wife; and it is said that the tailor and
his wife are now living happily in the
city Of Kilkenny.
Ma. SPEAKER BELL.--The speaker Of
the H. Representatives, made speech
at Murfreesborough, Tenn. last month,
in which he gave Mr.. Van Buren's gold
and silver currency" slap. Here is an
extract
"Mr. B., would vote for no bank until
it was ascertained that the experiment OF
the President would answer the purpose
ofthe government. And lift did not. the
people would then go with him in sup
port of bank. The general government
did have the constitutional power and
the exclusive, power, under the provi-
sion for regulating the currency, TO es-
tabish bank, but that the States pos
sessed the right TO veto the establishment
of branches within their limits. He be-
lieved THAT THERE COULD NOT BE Sue
cEssFULLY ESTABLISHED GOLD AND
SILVER CURRENCY; 1T WAS THE BASIS
ONLY OF OTHER CURRENCY, THE GREAT
cLAMoR ABOUT SUCH A CIRCULATING
MEDIUM WAS A HUMBUG, A TRICK BY Po-
