WooL.-We publish in another column, an ad-
vertisement, that subscription has been opened
at the Office of H. C. Adams, Esq, for the pur
pose of establishing large sheep-fold, upon an
estate of one hundred thousand acres in Western
Virginia. We commend this project. The rich
and mountainous land, and temperate climate of
Western Virginia, are highly favorable to the
rearing of sheep; and capitalists, who seek sure
and profitable employment of their funds, will
with difficulty find means Of investment more
conformable to their wishes.
The fertile soil Of this part of Virginia, and its
subterranean riches, need only the application of
intelligent industry, to furnish their proportion
towards the prosperity and the resources Of the
State; and we should, therefore, be pleased to see
the capital, and the activity of our men of enter
terprize and OF enlarged views, directed towards
that favored tract of country, so long unknown
and neglected.
The calculations upon which the brilliant an
ticipations announced in the advertisement are
based, appear to rest upon we'll authenticated
facts; and we cannot doubt the realization OF
the results which have been deduced from them,
should the management of the enterprise be con-
fided to practical and experienced persons.
The population of the United States, in
crcasing day by day with wonderful rapidly, as
sures to the products of the sheep-fold an impor-
tant outlet at home, independently Of the foreign
demand, ifa glut of the American market should
be apprehended. Every form of industry, which
s certain Of sale for it's productions, may count
upon sure profits. Above all, in the present in
stance, in which the wool, the product of the
told, is beyond all caprices of fashion and all the
chance. of new inventions. Wool has been, is,
and ever will be the primary Observation-Disclosures
sable to the clothing of man as wheat is to his
subsistence.
The character Of the enterprise is one that
must attract attention.
