Sheep VS.. Other Stock.

The following briefly enumer
ates some of the advantages OF
keeping sheep:
They make the quickest returns
for the investment in them, being
ready to eat at three or foul
months old, and yielding a valua
bic fleece at one year old, and per
haps a lamb also.
Their subsistence is cheaper
than that Of any other domestic
animal-grass and stock fodder be.
ing all they. will require at any
season.
They supply the family, at all
seasons, with the most wholesome
and the most delicious meat, Of
the most convenient size for fami-
ly use. 2a ts
They present valuable products
in two forms, their wool and their
flesh, both Of which are adapted
to home consumption, and for sale,
and both of which are adapted to
either domestic or distant markets.
The transportation of them to
market alive is cheaper than that
of any other live stock (not blood.
ed) of the same value, and the
same is true also of their wool,
compared with other and similar
agricultural products.
Wool may be more easily and
safely kept Interpretation of a bet
ter market, than any other and
similar product, as it is less liable
to fire, insects, rats, rotting.
Any investment in them is self
enlarging, and rapidly 50, by their
annual increase, while their wool
pays much better in the way OF
interest at the same time, which is
not true of many, if of any, simi-
lar investments. ~
Sheep, here, have bat one enc
my, the dog, and bis brother, igno-
ramus legislator; who, not having
the capacity to comprehend the
whole subject, and to explain it to
his constituents, allows the dog to
run at large umrestrained by law,
and thereby this inestimable val
ue is almost entirely lost to the
State. = -.

Professors in the Berlin University Medi-
cal Faculty, who examined DR.. Barth, the
distinguished African traveller, after death.
says he was killed by the carelessness OF
bis physician, whom he called in to relieve
tritiing attack of dyspepsia, to which he
was subject after eating heartily. Among
other articles of the prescription was one
ordering six grains of tartar emetic, which
in itself was sufficient to kill four persons.
If people would for one moment consider
how easily remedies can be procured,
which, while they are perfectly harmless in
themselves, work marvellous cures, the
cases of poisoning by the carelessness of
physicians would be few indeed. Such a
remedy is Robacl<'s Stomach Bitters, for

Petition for Return CT Property
During the war the corporation of New
Orleans sold bonds to citizens of Louisiana
for the purpose of raising funds with which
to tortfty the city against the Federal
forces, and after General Butler captured
the city he made several assessments,
amounting altogether to seventy-five per
cent. of the gross amount, for the benefit of
the poor of the department.. Several petit
tiOns have been filed asking that the
amount of these assessments NAV be re-
funded, but without success, and Robert j.
Kerr, of New Orleans, has recently arriv-
ed, authorized by the interested parties to
act as their agent in procuring its return.
If he succeeds, General Butler will, in re-
sponse to the demand of prominent Loui-
siana Radicals, bring the whole subject
before Congress.
The mississippi Test Case.
A belief is rapidly gaining ground that
the Supreme Court will reject the petition
in the Mississippi test case without much

original jurisdiction. Should it be other
wise, however, it will be rapidly followed
by several other States, including Virginia,
Georgia, Florida and Texas.
