TOrrcN is near his End,

Mr.. n. Emmons Ide of this city, brother Of Mrs.
Torey went to Baltimore last week to take, in behalf
of the family last leave of Mr. Tomey in the hospl-
tai of the pententiaTy in Mayland-Alrs Tory being
too feeble to visit her dying husband Mr. Ide, on his
RETURN represents Mr.. Torrey being near the close
oihis life. He would not be surprised, any day, to
hear Of his decease, and thought it hardly probable
that he could survive another week. He must die-a
martyr to his love of Liberty and Justice-a victim to
the vengeance of the slave traders of Baltimore, and
the slavobreeders of Prince Georges countrya mon
ument of the apathy of Americans to the wrongs of

The Worlds Christian Convention.

We learn from the Emancpator, and also fro
correspondence of the Lberator, that large
respectable meeting was held at Birmingham
land, at which resolution was unanimously adoF
that no Shareholders should be inUited to attend

of August next, This is as it should be-. They
no business in a Convention to devise means to

We dare not attempt to give an expression to our
feelings in view of the facts contained in the following
extract. Must this truly good and heroic man die a
martyr to the cause of Liberty Cannot the Unsuitable
nav of slavery be satisfied with nothing less than the
death of this husband and father the suerngs of that
broken hearted wife, and the ptfu cries of those fa-
therless children? Gracious heaven! has it come to
this that an American citizen must be murdered by
piece meal for doing what would enobe an angel?--
Shall not Toueys death be but the resurrection to
life of the revolutionary spirit that burned in ia
theirs bosoms, and which has, to great extent, been
and by his death do more to seal the doom of tyranny
And oppression in this land than any event that has
Nanspired since Ioveoy died in defence of the same
holy cause?
< letter to the Philadelphia American Sentinel, dat
ed at Baltimore the Both, says, 81 am informed that
the latter end of this ulHortunate man, convict
in penentiary, for the crime Of abductng slaves,
is very at hand, and that his spirit will probably
soon, if it has not already been released from bon
dage and from its prison walls on earth by the messen-
ger of death. The impression of his physician, this
morning, was, that he could not survive until night
lie was sinking fast, and was beyond all hope. So
confident have been his friends of his speedy end that
they have already had his coffin made and lined with
zinc, in order to take the body hone to New England
Immediately after death. The Governor of Maryland
visited the pententary to-day to view that institution
and aso as learn, to see the condition of Torey-
The impression was that if Torey were still living the
Governor would instantly grant his pardon, though it
would be next to impossible to remove him from the
prison prior to DEATH"

then fatting them. They should be always fat.
Their pens should be dry and warm.
Mr.. Morton Thought that in rearing sheep and
other stock, farmers were too apt to breed in
and in, or, in other words, breed altogether from
one family, without crossing. Great advantages
have been derived from imported sheep, by mix
ing the breeds Sheep will do best of any stock
upon meadow or poor hay, and will make as
much manure as any. They should be properly
bedded and housed in winter. In answer to an
inquiry, Mr. Morton stated that he feeds his
hogs three times day.
Mr.. Magoun of Pembroke, had tried apples
and potatoes for hogs, and thought the mixture
equal to potatoes alone. He had also given
sweet apples. He is very particular in selecting
a shoat taking care that it has small bones, and
is snug built, &c. He considered sheep as
profitable as any stock that could be kept, where
there is a suitable pasture.
Mr. Cole thought that if hogs worked, they
would want something more substantial than ap-
pies. Many have doubts whether it is not bet
ter to shovel over their manure and let their
hogs lie still. Mr.. Cole thought they would re-
quire more food when they worked. In rearing
horses, he thought it much better to train horse
from colt so as not to be under the necessity
of breaking him. For instance colt might be
hitched up when young, when the mare went out
for a short distance, instead of being allowed to
follow her. He would soon become accustom-
ed to the halter. He thought there was no dam
ger of injurng colt by using him when young.
He had drawn as much wood with calves, in
proportion to their weight, as oxen would draw,
and that too without hurting them in the least.
Colts might be accustomed to labor without any
more danger.
Mr.. Calhoun, the President of the meeting,
said that he had been requested by an assocla-
ton in New York to call the attention of this
meeting to the AL pncca sheep, efforts FOR intro
ducing which were being made in that State.
1t is thought that they are we'll adapted to our
climate. They are natives of the mountains of
South America Their size is arge-larger
than any other variety. Their wool is from
eight to twelve inches long, and of the very
finest quality They are very kind and docile
will stand all kinds of weather, and are sub
ject to few diseases. The AIpaccas have been
introduced with great success in England, on
the mountainous parts of Scotland, and found to
do well upon browse and coarse meadow hay
An association has been formed in New York,
and considerable sum of money raised to in
troduce this variety into this country.-JourndL
