Ahere was great revival there at the

ONE or NATURES MARvELs.--We
quoted remark the other day Of Colonel
Daniel Needham, to the effect that lie
knew q sheep-ireeder who had reduced
his calling to so much ola science, that he
could breed q white sheep, at will, with
but single lock Of black wool upon its
body, and, what is more, could locate the
black lock 10 any part Of the body he
chose. And we incredulously added that
when We learnt the name Of The breeder,
we would mention it. We haven't learn
ed the name Of the particular individual
referred to; but we haze been called on
BY Z worthy farmer Of Addison County,
who informs us that he has done the thing
himself. That is, be has known four ca es
in his own flock in which round black
spot made BY dipping cob in black paint
and pressing it upon the back or side of
breeding eve nj particular time, was re-
produced in the progeny Of the eve, the
lamb having distinct black spot, both
the skin and the wool growing on it being
colored, in the same part Of its body where
the eve was marked.
The result is not sure to follow in ev-
cry case; but from hundred ewes SO
marked lambs similarly marked we're pro-
duced in four cases. So it seems that the
thing can be done by marking ewes enough
at the proper time, and without any very
remarkable display of science after all.
But il is certainly curious instance OIL
