Wool-Growing a Success.

We are asked why wo~ol-GroWers do
not fail as other men sometimes do.
We answer, simply because the growth
Of wool andth increase is as perpetual
as the time in which they live. It mat
ters not how dark the nightois,s the~weel
continues to grow, and it matters not
how the winds blows or how it may
storm, CESSATION is never longer that $50
days. The lambs Will average one-half
females, and often twins, and they breed
the next year, making a double COM
pound--a perpetual growth and no loss.
Everything that does not go into mar
ket goes back to enrich the pasture, and
though the Landlord may be sick, it
does not stop the growth Of the lambs.
Not so with other business. The
mechanic or tic man who works for a
salary, has nothing to grow while lie
sleeps when his labor ceases his in
come stops, and his expenses are per-
petuaI. 1t is true there are perpetual
expenses attending the sheep and goat
business but under the most ~unfavora-
BILE circumstances, where they can live
on the commons without feeding, the
meat of the wethers will pay all ex-
penses without drawing on the wool OF
the increase of the ewes. Hence it is
like a perpetual stream flowing into a
basin it is only a question of time to
fill it to, overfQwing, The drawback
seems to be that men do not relish liv-
ing away from thiekly populated settle
ments and towns, depriving themselves
of society for the sake of money. This
objection can be obviated. In all new
countries there are villages constantly
up, neal which good sheep
can be had, where the owner
can visit his focks daily, and also give
his family the benefit of schools an9

A Band Of Cius0es. Where
they went and what they did


they went and what they did
Several DAYS ago four Of our town boys
named Frank Lagigne, George Hun
tington, - juneau, and Walter Ly-
on, aged respectively about twelve years
took it into their heads that it would
DC very funny to ask no further assist
ance from the ''tyrantso at home, usu-
ally denominated parents, and so made
every preparation for speedy depart
IRE from home influences, as well as
for lengthy stay, when they should
'stie up" in the promised land flowing
with milk and honey. For several days
the adventurers had been suspicioned,
though little was it believed they pre-
mediated fight. However, on We'd
nssday Of last week they by some means
procured boat or bark canoe, and
Immediately made every preparation for
hasty departure. Young Huntington
distracted twenty-five dollars from the
till Of his mothers millinery store,
wherewith the party made purchases.
Young Lavign was appointed Captain
and had the disposal of the funds, deal
ing out to the suJ-ordtnates cash as
they wanted, from twenty-five to fifty
cents. The party procured at the store of
Mr.. HOMER three guns for which they
paid, Gas we are informed) thirteen
dollars. They also procured ammuni-
ton, matches, provisions, spider for
cooking &c, &c, and started, no one
knowing when, for Pointe Bausse ten
miles down the river. They made the
