THE LAST MESSAGE.

There Is no longer doubt that lOcolocoism
has cut IFS own throat in the election Of James
X. Polk. he disgusts every senator of his
own party. He plays hide and 90 seek with
them and the nation, and has the confidence
of nobody. He meanly endeavors to cast of
all responsibility from his own shoulders on
10 the subordinates. He shows himself
mere manGvering politician in every thing,
and a statesmen in nothing. He is now be-
fore Congress with special message which
sounds hall way like war. But it serves
very little purpose but 10 make his subter-
ranean course more dark and inexplicable.
The state of the case however is clear. TIE
President recommends in Il blind way meas
ures which will involve the expenditure c.
millions Of money providing for Il contingent
cy, war with England which may not hap
pen. and will not unless it is brought on by
his own laundering diplomacy. 1t will be
seen likewise that he caused estimates TO be
made by the navy bureau 10 The committee
of the house OF representatives for building
so or 60 ships Of war, involving an immense
expenditure of s2OOOO,OOO which he dare
not take the responsibility of disclosing To
congress, Mr. Butler King being forbid by
his party to do so. These estimates were
signed by the heads Of the Bureaus: Consmo-
dores Morris, Warrington, Crane and Shru-
brick, without any express approval or disap-
prevail by the President So that in Juggling
for the presidential chair it shall not appear
that James X. Polk was prodigal.
THE SECRET ESTIMATES.
The important estimates for an augmenta-
ton of the Navy, communicated by the Sec
Rotary and Heads Of Bureaus Of she Navy
Department 10 the Committee oil the House
of Representatives. and which Mr.. Thomas
Butler King, a member Of that committee,
attempted TO lay before the House on Friday:
but was forbidden 10 do by the majority
these estimates, it seems, have been got d.
by the correspondents of some oil our con,
temporaries, and the ehiei items at leasp
made public. We snd them stated in the
Baltimore American as follows, and, from
the precision with which they are given, we
presume them to be correct. According TO

From the American Farmer.
Summer Management of Sheep.

In former number we noticed the ad-
mirable work, entitled, the american
Shepherd" by L. A. MoRRELL, and
promised to recur to it again. This
we do now the Book has confirmed us in
our former opinion that, taken as whole,
II is the best one ever published for the
uses and purposes of those of the Amer
lean sheep breeders, who may either be
engaged in the business, or intend to en-
bark in it. The very intelligent author
has not only availed himself, in the COM
pilation and writing of his work, of the
lights reflected by European authors, but
has done so with regard to some of the
most extensive wool growers in America,
thus laying before his readers mass Of
the most invaluable information, so col
lected and arranged as to be presented in
the most ineligible form. Superadded
to these sources of information, he has
thrown in the results of his own great
experience. Thus, as it were; placing
before the public eye, that which his
judgment approves, and rejecting that
which is not adapted TO the habits and
condition of the people Of our own coun-
try. In separating, as he has done, the
chat from the wheat, and retaining moth
ing but what can be rendered practically
useful: Mr.. Morrell has rendered a most
acceptable service TO the Agricultural pub
lie, and entitled his Book to place in
every farmer and planters Library. To
the man who makes Sheep-raising pri-
mary object on his estate-to him who
makes wool his money-crop;-we look
upon the purchase of the american
Shepherd" as an indispensable pre-re-
quisite to success, and therefore commend
the publication to the patronage of the
whole agricultural community.
In what we are about to abstract from
the work we shall use brevity, contenting
ourselves with stating the substance Of
each chapter sufficiently clear, however.
IN our own language, to be understood.

Sheep which may have been confined in
yards or sheds upon hay or fodder,
through the winter, should not be sud-
denly turned to grass in the spring; but
il is better to suffer them to Craze for an
hour or two daily for week frst-du-
ring which period they ahouId be fed du-

turning them to grass in the spring is
greatly reduced
