Vermont sheep.

We had the pleasure of looking at a lot of
full blood Mcrino Bucks few days since, from
the flock Of the Hon. Jony S. PETTBoSE, of
Manchester, VT, as they passed through this
city on their way to Clinton, Luncwa Co., Mich,
having been purchased by Mr.. James b. Wells
of that place. The lot Of twenty consisted of
eighteen Lambs and two yearings. one of the
latter with his last years fleece on, which was
one of the most splendid we have ever seen,
excalng both in quality and quantity, it being
full five inches in length and Of the softest and
finest texture. The Lambs were all unusually
large and in good condition, their 'ceccs all ex-
hibiting the same excellence. Judge Pcttibone
we understand has also sent fifty Young Bucks
of the same Sort into the State of Ohio du-
ring the present season. and seems to be doing
essential service in improving Sheep culture in
the West Judge Pettibonc has taken great
pains to improve his flock for several years past,
and his efforts have been emnently successful.
ANY of our farmers who are DESTROYS of rur-
chasing Bucks for the purpose OF improving
their hocks would find it TO their interest, no
doubt, to look at his flock, as we presume he
has few more left" Of the same excellent
qualities with those we have here noticed.-
