SHANGHAI SHEEP.-Geo. w. Kendall of
the n. o. Picayune, in the prosecution of
his purpose to establish an extensive sheep
farm in Texas, has recently returned TO
New Orleans with pair Of Shang hal
lambs, which the Picayune announces in
the following strain

but we had no idea that the Brother of the
Sun, and 6fy-third Cousin of the Moon had
any knowledge of the wool-clip or the taste
OF mutton chops. One would imagine that
Chinese sheep would be like every thing
else that is Chlneese-queer, odd, quizzl-
cal but no such thing. These two lambs
--tor they are young 'uns-are quite as SIM
pie, and woolly, and dirty, and respectable
looking, as the most civilized Of their Euro
'pean or American brethren. It's no use
saying "Cow-chow," or "Tebiki" to them.
They dom. understand thelgreen tea lan-

", however, and thoroughly to understand
the difference between people who wear
tight inexpressibles, and those who sport
baggy ones. The two innocent little big
lambs propose emigratng TO the prairies of
Texas shorty, and we expect TO hear ofihem
lying down peaceably with the same flock

The young monk looked at him.

A number of monks were walking up and
down the cloisters. Afus ran towards them,
none answered. He went closer, but not
one of them could he recognize.

cried. ain the name Of heaven, my broth

All looked at him with astonIshment.
"Alius % at las! said the eldest; there

convent. | used TO hear the old men, when
was young, talking of him. He was a
learned man, but dreamer, and fond OF
solitude. One day he descended into the
valley, and was lost sight of behind the
wood They expected him back in vain
He never returned and none knew what
became Of him; but it is now a hundred
years or more since that"
At these words Alfus uttered loud cry,
for he understood IT all and falling on his
knees he lifted up his hands and exclaimed
with fervor:
go my God it has been thy will to
show me my folly in comparing the joys OF
earth with those of heaven. A century has
rolled over my head as a single day, while

thine unworthy servant"
Having thus spoke, brother Alfus cx-
