ReRns for sheep.
Bean straw is valuable for sheep, and
when properly cured they eatitwith ayidi-
ty. In a chemical analysis of beans it is
found that they abound with greater
quantity of the elements Of wool than any
other grain or Vegetable, to make sheep
produce heavy fleeces. They will eat
them with avidity, whole or ground. even
in damaged state. To our stock du,
ring the winter season we generally give

Rt. Rev. Bishop Clarke of Rhode ISL

subject, Fifty Years Hence From a
sketch in the Cambridge Chronicle we
take the following extracts:
Fifty years hence the newly married
pair will step into an emporium for the
sale of houses, look over the book of pat
terns, select one to suit their own taste
aud means, order it, and it will be sent
home in the morning, put together and
occupied at night.
In travelling, as great changes will
take place. Instead of the dusty road
and crowded car, there will be splen-
did Locomotive hotel, flying over a road
carpeted with turf and bordered with
shade trees, and heralding its approach
with sweet music, instead of the demoni-
&C shrek of the steam whistle, and label
ed, though from Boston to San Francis
co il four days.
Instead of the unsightly telegraph poles
there will be, fifty years hence, net
work underground, and under the bosom
of the deep, and it will click of thoughts
instead of words. Then he Electric
Battery viii light all the street lamps at
once, enable all the clocks in the city TO
keep exact time, and hndIe the Beacons

lonely days.
Then the author viii not write by our
slow process. losing his rarest fancies,
bur he will sit down to the newest inven-
ted Chirographical instruments, and put
ting his fingers on the keys write as fast
as he can think.
