Wool growers who wish to improve their
sheep can now make up their minds on the
relative merits Of the different breeds, and
govern themselves accordingly. The great
West, ever ready to keep up with the times,
has already paid her hundreds of thous-

country is being enriched and benefited
by them. Long live the men who have had
the enterprise and noble daring to make
this improvement and especially Vermont

at great risks encouraged the importer John

RISE OF FAsHIoNs.-Changes in FASH
ions have generally arisen from peculiari-
lies in the dress Of some eminent person
age to hide bodily defect: the homage
Of fatterers soon leads them to ape their
masters; and once adopted at court, a
fashion soon becomes universal. The
closely cropped heads Of the reign of
Francis |. of France, was occasioned by
a wound in the forehead which that prince
received from burning brand in the hands
of the Count de Montgomery, and which
forced him to have his hair cut short. The
beautiful hair of Louis XIV. when a child
introduced the use of perukes with long
floating curls. The huge wigs which
succeeded these, which were adopted by
all Europe, but which have now become
mere aPPendage to the magistracy, were
invented by French barber to conceal
slight inequality in the shoulders of the
Dauphin. Henry ii. from a scar on his
neck, mounted OH the ruff; which the
court ladies adopted, but with excessive
exaggeration. Charles VII. of France,
introduced long coats to hide his ill-shaped
legs; and shoes with very long points, full
two feet in length, were invented by the
Duke of Anjou to conceal large excres-
ence on one of his feet.-.3rthars Home
