of a hill. The second operation OF tins
part OF the battery deserves to be parlic-
ularly noticed 1t was, when the frag
ments of the LIST and I'd Illinois, and ker-
lucky infantry, were forced to retreat
down the Tavlne after The las, charge. As
the main body of these three regiments
gained the road at lhe mouth of he ra-
vine, a large body OF Mexican lancers
poured over the point of The opposite hill,
and commenced an ndlscrlminate slaugh-
Ter. Then it was, that Capt. Washing.
IONS battery saved the lives of 100 men,
aud probably the fortunes Of the day -
BY his fire he drove back the main body
of the laucers, covered our retreat, and,
but for a small party who gained the pro.
lection OF the hill aud killed our wounded,
or loss would have been but trliling -
Both officers and men, of Capt. Wash

UOOL-The history of the growth Of
wool is very curious. Fifty years ago
there was no, pound Of fine wool raised
in the United States, in Great Britain, or
in any other country oxceP, Spain. H.
the latter country, the nocks were owned
exclusively by the nobility Of The crown.
In 1864. small flock was sent to the
EleclOr of Sayony as a present from the
King If Spain, whence TIE entire pro.
duc,lon Of Saxon wool. now of such i'm.
mense value. Before the breaking out
of the last war, between This country and
Grea, Britain, Col. Humphrey succeeded
in getting few merino sheep brought
out of Spain; then the expectation was
prohibited under the penalty Of being sen,
TO the ralleys for life.
In 1910, during the second invasion Of
Spain by The French, some Of the vaIua-
BILE Clown aocks were sold To raise mon.
ey. Our Consul at Lisbon. Nr. Jarvice,
purchased fourteen hundred head, and
sen, them TO this country. Previously
however, Mr. Livingston obtained few
sheep Of the Spanish breed, as present,
in 1902. A portion Of The pure unmixed
merino blood from these nocks is to be
found in Vernon, at this lime.-Such
was the origin Of the immense Aocks Of
fine wooded sheep in the United States
and Great Britain.
