PrOfiIablenesS of Sheep,

In compliance with your request for agri-
cultural statistics, herewith present mine
in regard to wool and sheep:
In February, 1859, 1 purchased Is good
ewes for s45; the following season sold
the wool for s2l.7l; present season sold
wool for S5O.e2; and since shearinc, sold
yearling weathers for $40; amount Of
cash received, S92.53; and l have a ewes,
worth S21; IA lambs worth sI4; and 6
yearlings, worth SIS; total, s142.53.-
Thus it will be seen that after repayine
the first cost, with 10 per cent for the ust
thereof, they have doubled in value in Ii
months; or, in other words, | have received
more than twice as much cash from then
as l paid at the start, and now have "a
sheep left, and all from the original Is.
You will observe, l have charged then
nothing for keeping, for the reason thai
they never have had seed of grain since
l owned them, and have been wintered
wholly on rough fodder, of which l had
an abundance that was wholly unsaleable
and the same may be said of PASTURE

OVER THE WAY.

Gone in her childish purity
Out from her golden day;
Fading away in the light so sweet,
Where the silver stars and the sunbeams meet
Paving path for her silent feet,
Over the silent way.
Over her bosom teaderiy
The pearl white hands arc pressed;
The lashes lie on her cheeks so thin
Where the sweetest blush of the rose hath been
Shutting the blue of her eyes within
The pure lids closed in rest.
Over the sweet brow lovingly
Twineth her sunny hair;
She was SO fragile that love went dov. n
From his heavenly gems that scft right crown
To shade her brow with its WAYS so brorin,
Light as the dimpling air.
Gone to sleep, with Il &C tender smile
FrOze on her silent lips
By the farewell kiss of her dewy breath,
Cold In the clasp OF her angel Death
Like the last fair, bud of fading wreath,
Whose bic ,om the white frost nips.
Robin -hushed in your downy bed
Over the swinging bOugh-
Doyou miss her voice from your glad duet,
WheA the dew in the heart of the rose is set,
TIL its velvet lips with the essence wet
In orient crimson glow?
Rosebud under your shady leaf
Hid from the sunny day
Do you miss the glance of the eye so bright.
Whose blue was Heaven In your timid sight?
1t is beaming now in the world of light
Over the starry way.
Hearts-where the darling's head hath lain
Held by loves shining ray
Do you know that the touch of her gentle han,
Doth brighten the harp in the unknown land
Over the starry way.

ANOTHER VIEW OF JAPAN.-The Rev.
V. D. Colling has within the last three
years been all over the world, having mere
ly as baggag carpet bag. A sketch of his
Journeyings we find in the New Work
World. Of Japan the sketch says:
MIR. Z. was in Japan before the Amer
can treaty went into effect, and before any
missionaries were there; he visited very
much the people at their homes, shops
and farms, visited schools, temples, facto-
rIes and became well acquainted with Bid.
dist priests. Most writers if not all have
been exceedingly unfair in depicting Janan-
ese social life-in fact everything has been
over stated. Now the simple truth is
that no people in the world, exhibit in their
lives and literature (chiefy illustrated) such
unblushing licentiousness as the japanese.
Of course the advent of strangers has in
creased and made it profitable. The ports
now open exhibit, morally speaking, state
of things which no decent pen can describe.

Com. Perry gives in his book-because it
is the best in Kakodadi, is occupied entire

@A correspondent of the Bosotor
Iraeler, who is at Cape Sable, N. S., the
scene of the wreck of the steamer Hamga
rian, says:
On Sunday morning 1 attend church on
the Island. To my surprise, l found the
ladies dressed in full custome, with silks
and satins, flowing ribbons, and "Bon Ton u
bonnets (via Cheapside London.) Upon
inquiry, l learn that the inhabitants have
extensive and valuble wardrobes from the
wreck of the ill-fated steamer Hungarian.
Ii is common thing for the females, who
assist in curing fish, to be dressed in silk,
with bugle headdress, DC.
On Monday went to the vicinity to take
up "a suarl. A driver from Halifax went
down in eight fathoms of water, and made
fast to "the snarl," which was hoisted by
steam. 1t consisted of part of one of the
steamers boats, all wound around with
broadcloths, silks, ginghams, calicoes, and
other textile fabrics, estimated, when ia
ken up, to weigh ten tons. Upon taking
this snarl apart, we found the corpse of
lady, supposed from her dress to be cabin
passenger, but nothing was found to give
least clue TO her name.
