SAEEP SnEARmo.--We are indebted to the
Secretary of the association for an early copy
of the report of the fair at Jefferson on Satur-
day the 10Th. The attendance was large, the
competition deeply interesting and earnest, the
animals Of superior and very uniform excel
lence, and the handling Of the shears showed
the connection between practice and perfeo
ton. ilr ',a.p. ane
In looking over the report, the impulse Of
local pride could hardly be avoided at the dis
covery that Ashtabula carries the palm in this
county for Yearling Merino Bucks. Mr.. E. o
oWArRous, of East Ashtabula, 1t will be seen
entered yearling that sheared IL pounds 81
ounces, distancing all competitors. This buck
is admitted to be not only unequaled for weight
and quality of his fleece but for his superior
points of symmetry and proportion, and the pu
ritz of his blood. These are qualities that every
stock raiser win take into account in casting
about for the means of improving his flock
We understand that he has been procured at
considerable expense with the praisworthy
design of making him servicable to this end,
aud we doubt not those engaged in\ sheep hus-
bandry will recognize the fact and avail them
selves Of the advantage.

BLOOD HoRsEs.-The Trotting Stallion, YAK
KEE JouN brought out the present season by
E. Fl. KEITH, of Geneva, is of the same blood,
make, color, etye and action, of the Shears
horse, to which allusion has heretofore been
made. He is of the Black Hawk blood, a breed
of horses which have stood unsurpassed for
compactness of build muscle, strength, endur-
ance, and grace and beauty of action and out
line. Nature in her economy, has given them no
waste of inches, but, a treer combination of
sterling qualities perhaps, than any other breed
in the country. This will account for their
popularity with breeders and fanciers. The
color too is incomparably the best. with all
these points of excellence, Yankee John, adds
the important one of speed. In this respect he
has had no competitors. His time is 2:45,
which we believe has not been approached by
any other horse known in this vicinity. His
pedigree is well authenticated, and breeders
will do well to make the comparison of his quail
ties with those of the thousand-and -one that
are going to and fro in the land
