ANY one considering the advantages Of Iron
over Rope As material tor binding cotton bales,
viii he surprised that it has not been adopted
long since. III its security against fire there is
an overwhelming reason for its adoption.
The presses in the Seaport Cities have been
the main cause of its not being generally adopt
ed: but. now that objection is removed gclcr-
ally, and the Orleans Press, the largest in N. o.,
give it the preference over rope The Flssm.lGn
Iron Hoop and Tie is the Improvement of one
Of the propretors, and is adopted from the fact
that it is found. after long experiment. to conf
blne the greatest merits in simplicity and facility
OF application OF any one yet made. It is 50
prepared as to require no change for recon-
pressing. Thus obyiating the only remaining 2
difficulty at the sea board cities.
The hoops are sent Of any length from eight
to ten feet, and full guarantee given that
neither the Ties nor Hoops shall break. And
further, that all cotton bound in them shall be
received on the same terms at the Orleans Press
as rope bound cotton. The weight per bale is
about the same as rope, not one pound more or
less.
To show the opinion Ship Masters have Of it.
we gi the following among numerous com
men,lations we have:
The undersigned masters of vessels having
had cotton compressed with Fassmann' new Iron
Hoops and Ties, hereby recommend the same.

ProatabIeness q sheep.

In compliance with your request for agri-
cultural statistics, herewith present mine in
regard to wool and sheep:
In February, 1859, purchased 10 good
ewes for S45; the following season sold the
wool for $2i.fi; present season sold wool
for S50.s2; and since shearing, sold year
ling weathers for $40; amount of cash re-
ceived, s92.53; and have IA ewes, worth
S2l; IA lambs worth $l4; and yearlings,
worth $15; total, Sl4253. Thus it will be
seen that after repaying the first cost with
10 per cent. for the use thereof they have
doubled in value in II months; or, in other
words, l have received more than twice as
much cash from them as paid at the start
and now have "a sheep left and all from the
original 10.
You will obscrFe, I h&fe charged them
nothing for keeping, for the reason that they
never have had a seed Of grain since owned
then, and hare been KiRtered wholly On
