LEICESTER VS.. MERINoEs FOR NUT
Tos.-A Mr. Julian Winnie, of Albany
comfy, N Y, fed, during tie past winter,
$50 Merino sheep and ~ Leicesters, for
the market. To test the comparative
profit of feeding the two breeds, he set
apart sixty Leicesters and sixty one Meri-
noes. A careful account was kept of all
the food they consumed during the con-
tinuance of the experiment, forty six days,
to March %, when they were again
weighed and sent to market These num-
bers were thought TO represent fairly the
whole, and were taken as avoiding the
trouble and additional risk of error, which
would have been incurred by larger num-
bers. The experiment began after both
lots had been got in good progress-the
previous and subsequent treatment Of both
having been precisely alike. The Meri-
noes were an extra good lot, the $50 having
been selected out of 600-and DO complaint
could exist against them, as we know by
personal examination, on the ground Of
being below the best merits of their kind
The following are the figures as regards
weight, ETC.:
Feb 1870 coarse vols weighed......s.s lbs
March $50 coarse woods weighed 9.s78 fbs.'

IMPROVEMENTS AND PROGRESS OF

Every citizen Of Pulaskiand Of GileAl

hyed here. take pride in the progress Of
sur aoufishing little city. They delight
S noticing the workings Of progress as
manifested IL he extension and beautify

paoities for trade. The spirit Of enterprise
seems to have been Infused il certain chan.
nsls into the minds of those who have been
heretofore regarded asstheshost cratic old
fOgys. and th to be opening their
Golfers Of capisaz more spirited and
energetic young men, who are taking their
places in the busy mart. The old fOgys
have learned that if they keep pace with
TIE age o enteIprise z must be dsshing,
alert vigorous and en,f Using. Under the
Influence of the spirit of the times, they have
soutgrown their fossil ideas, and grasp in
tuitively the progressiveness of intelligence
and improvement. The Pulaski Of to-day
is not the Pulaski of ten years ago. 1t is
completely changed in every respect. There
is a spirit of energy and determination Wis
ible now that was never felt by her in the
az te-war period, which presents her in
new light. She now has a population of
about 5000 people. and is rapidly increas-

costly business houses which have gone

are now in course of erection, (some OF them
nearly completed, eleven large and beauti-
full bricl business houses, upon or ada
cent to the public square. We notice first
in the list of new business houses that Of
Mr.. A. Cox, who has, unquestionably
shown a more liberal spirit in the way of
city improvement than any capitalist in
town. His new two story brick is situat-
ed on the West side Of the squire, next to
the Riohland SaviDgsBank, and runs
back 40 feet. The first story will be Oc-
cupied as a wholesale grocery and produce
establishment, while the upper rooms will
be rented for offices.
On tbs South side Mr.. J. P. May is

ly completed, two extensive business
houses, with entrance between to offices
above. Dr.. Rufus White has under head
way, at the Northwest corner, on the old
jail site, two elegant and tasty brick store
houses.
There are only few residences going
up at present, but there is lively and gen.
eral spirit of renovation and improvement
to be observed throughout the whole city.
DRY GOODS, GROCERIES,, &C.
There are now already in operation, and
all doing a live, prosperous business, sew
enteen dry goods houses, eight grocery and

those of any inland city in the South, and
their proprietors are uniformerly polite
and accommodating.
MANUFA CToRIEs, &C.

cotton factory, which turns out a large
quanty of goods that will compare in quail
ity and price with any establishment in the
