ThC New TrensurY Order.

Under The new Secretary of the Treasury
the use of "transfer drafts" is dispensed with
altogether. If the Government have 81 ,OO0,-
GOO in New York which they desire to place
in New Orleans, there is no other way than
to ira nsier the specie to that point. This is
the law, and Mr.. Guthrie chooses to interpret
it to the letter. Thus, the Subtreasurer in
this city yesterday received $4,000 in gold
and ~ 200 in silver from New York, by
Adams and Co.'S Express, and in IA little
while it will be carted off in some other dircc-
ton. The Secretary OF the Treasury will find
this troublesome busines before he is done
with it, and il he should meet with one or two
losses he will be glad to give it up. 1t is
very liberal construction that requires the
execution Of the law in this way; and if the
Secretary intends to pursue this course of
construction, he will find in all the disbursing
officers OF the Government fit subjects for his
displeasure and the execution of the law. It
is notorious that they are not permitted by
the law to keep their funds in any bank or
banking house, but they are in the constant,
universal habit of doing it. What will Mr..
Guthrie do in such case!

GENERAL ScoTr-Thc Home Journal al
ludes to the removal of this distinguished man
to the city Of New York, in tho following Just
manner.
BY the removal Of Gen. Scott and his
family to New York, one OF the most attrac-
tive features of Washington society will be
added to our own, The mere presence among
us of 80 distinguished u person-he Com
mander-in Chief of the Army the first of
living soldiers, a man whose career is part of
our country's history, and whose fame is
world-wide--seems of itself to elevate the
city toleardS metropolitan rank. His residence,
the hospitaltics Of which will be so graceful
ly dispensed, will be the centre of an extensive
and most attractive circle. And of necessity,
New York will be hereafter more frequently
visited by military men, who form always a
welcome addition TO the society of a city,
where too exclusive devotonto the practical
prevents the developments OF the ornamental,
or makes II blush for its existence. We are
glad 10 perceive that the General looks as well
and as young as he did before he encountered
the iatigues of political campaign. Histall
form is unbent by tue weight of three-score
years, and his hair is not yet of that hue
which is said to render it a 'crown of glory"
He has been frequently seen of late in public
places and private assemblies, and his pre-
sence never fails to awaken great interest, g.
to elicit unequivocal marks OF respect aud nd.
mira,ion. We trust he will find his new
place Of residence agreeable and exhilarating,
and, for many years, continue 10 be the com
manling ornament Of its society,

Wool Growing in the West.

have for several years been dissatisfied
with the profits arising from keeping fine
wooled sheep. My experience is, that it does
not pay to keep sheep for their wool alone,
without mutton or lambs. Some three or
four years ago considerable attention was paid
to purchasing and raising sheep, but from the
depressed state of the wool market it is dec-
dedly falling of Farmers in the Western
States have also learned that growing wool is
not the profitable business that it was repre-
sented to be by those who bred sheep to sell at
three times their value. The demand east
for good horses, cattle, and swine, is much
more urgent than for wool; hence they COM
mand high prices, Good swine in decent Or
der are worth in this State IS per hundrnd for
the eastern markets. A drove of seven hun
dred swine passed trough Ypsilanti the other
day bound for Boston. If western farmers
will turn their attention to breeding good
horses, cattle and hogs, the eastern drover will
be after them and puy good prices, The sup
ply is not equal to the demand, and prices will
continue to rise.--W. ANDERSON, Michigan.
