The Legislature ~ its late session repealed
that portion OF the Statutes OF Iowa laid
down in the new Code under the head OF
Chapter l62, and thereby Inadvertently swept
from the Statute Book every provision for
the payment Of public officers County and
State who receive their salariss 10 fees.-
Witnesses, Jurora. County oi6eers and State
functionariss suffer alike. A case Involving
this question has recently come before Judge
Dillon, OF Davenport, who has decided thai
othcors who receive their salaries in fees, are
absolussly without authority TO collect CON
pensstion till tho Legislature meets. and
passes . curative act for their benefit.
!. BE-. been suggested :hs; tho Board OF
Supervisors can remedy the defect by voting
compensation to the County officers 10 lieu
Of fees. n this can be done, il would be
mush better than having an extra session
OF the Legislature, besides being far less ex j.

A New Bre~A or sheep.

A report has lately bseD made TO tho So
sisty OF Aoclimation Of Animate 10 London,
Of new breed Of sheep, or 1t least AMI
mails resembling sheep, except 10 sise, found
10 countries adjacent 70 the Ponjaub. The
animsls are sailed Pafik Sheep, snd arc the
most diminutivs Of the owls family, the full
grown onss being not larger than lambs Of
few weeks old. The Purik Sheep has
small bones, 6eshy csroass, and the NUT
ton 10 excellent, and yields three pounds .
year OF wool. Tbs ewes generally give two
ambs year. The great advantage OF this
over other breeds 10 its dom estio habits-liv-
ing around tho cottages - quiet - . house
dog, aud feeding upon oil sorts Of waste
garbage, scraps Of fruit, vegetables, crumbs
d bread, shrsds that ars frequently wasted !;
eating thsm from tho hands Of any one Who
offers. It's thought that the Pork Sheep
would BE- suited to tho climate OF Ensland,
aid exactly adapted to the wants OF many
cottagers. II 20, il would also suit many
10 this country. Il would be great object

and the flesh Of which would sfford q more
