BgsiIuIH C.TTLE IL TIE SOUTHERN STaTEs
Ono Of our ncighborS, wlro has had much
experience in the importation OF foreign breeds
of sheep and cattle, writes ms 4 note that seems
to lis to contain some useful suggestions.
lie says that Brahmin cattle were first III
troduccd into tic United States about tel ears
ago, and, as in the case Of the mule, had to
work their way into ;ae good graces Of our
people, by positive proof Of their real value.
There arc no SEATTLE, he maintains, on the face

and there is 10 question that, with high feed
ins, the English have brought their taNoTtes to
perfection, as fat cattle.
Bnt Brahmins, for active work, our trlchd
considers 10 he eqracd only by that noble
animal, the horse; while for the quantity oi
meat they yield they arc. superior to tho Dur
ham, and their milk, for lut;cr, Is fully equal,
in richness to. the Allcrney, or brittany as
some call them Our correspondent thinks the
Brahmin cattle to be particularly adapted to
the Southern climate; and he expresses the
hope that some Of our planters, who had cx,
pcr;cncc in the ,rsc of this particular Stock will
be kind enough to lay before the public the
results Of that experience, especially III the
acclinaton Of this useful animal.
