subject Of internal improvement by the
State. The discussion opening up on

wards building a bridge in one Of the
interior counties. The advocates oil
this mode ofimprovement are ipgeni-
GUS in their arguments-ne7er failing
to show, OF course, the immense increase
to the revenues of the State that is to
result from the building of the bridge,
or repairing of the road under eonsIdera"
ton. But let US come down to the
sand-rock OF history on this subject.
Compare the history of Virginia, who
built roads and bridges out OF the State
Treasury, with the histories OF Penney"
vania and Ohio, in which States the
people of each county and locality made
their own and what conclusion 10 forced
upon you. Is it not against the plan
practioed by Virginia
The big-hearted and bluff Delegate
from Logan, Col. Floyd, compares these
proposed road and bridge appropria-
lions (Which, he informs US. will not
aggregate at this session, over $50, OOO),
to appropriations for the support of the
Lunatic Asylum and the Penitentiary.
Therefore he calls upon the Auditor
to know how much money has been
expended upon these institutions, with
a view OF using the sums spent In the
upper part OF the State in enforcing
his claim for the expenditure OF other
(if not similsr) large sums in the build-
ing of roads and bridges in the lower
end OF the State.
l can hardly believe that Col. Floyd
would seriously weigh the value OF q
road through some speculator's wild
lands, against the humanity OF caring
for our Providence-afflicted sons and
daughters, or the restraining, for the
protection of life and property, OF the
thief and assassin. Yet that is what
his argument leads TO.
10 addition, this tanning OF the Local
and sectional prejudice OF one portion
of the State against another, has never
been known olead to any good anywhere
out 10 evil duu ludl CJutlHueiiy' 70
latter suggestion is not leveled at Col
Floyd; but the habit is too common
and growing and is not confined to any
particular section so far as / know.
Jealousy is the neansst l want to em'
phasize the word) of the internal pas
sions, and every effort should be made
to eradicate it wherever and whenever
it makes its appearance. 1t is peace

stroying, demonisc, consuming flame
the cultivation OF which isdeath.
The people of this State have every
reason TO be contented and happy.
They are blessed with peace and plenty,
with coed government and light taxes
Development OF their great undevelop'
ed wealth is progressing in wonder
full manner. Our State is rapidly be-
coming a power in the land. If we
stand together, cultivate harmony and
good will, each man man mind his own
business, work for his own living and
not engage in schemes OF trying to live
at the expense OF more honast anc
industrious neighbor, we shall all b'
mproved by it. i.

Dog Husbdndry.

Prof. Tracy read. at the last meeting oil
the ST. Louis Farmers Club, an interest
ing paper on dog husbsndry.' from
which we make the following extracts;
This interest being intimately connect
ed with that OF sheep husbandry, 1t may
not be improper TO say few word. upon
both subjects. The tg0 branches OF IN
dustry, while they seem 10 % .alher
friendly aud mutually dependent-lhe
shepherd dog being the trusted guardian
OF the hock-are yet quite antagonistic
in their practical operation. In fact the
two kinds Of business cannot be success
fully prosecuted on the same farm. or
even in the same neighboIhood. And
there il 81 much incompatibility and inn
possibility in SUCH az undertaking as
there is in the insane attempt 10 make
two railroad trains pass cash other on
the same track, al experiment that has
always resulted in disaster. Either The
dogs or the sheep are sure to come TO
griei; and Us the dog is naturally woliish,
with strong hereditary appetite for
mutton, the bucks, bell welhers. ewes
and gentle lambs all 60 down before his
ruthless snd bloody assaults. 1t may be
put down as l. settled maxim that good
crop OF both dogs and sheep eanDot be
raised in the same neighborhood.
The sheep is one of tho kindest end
gentlest OF all domestic animals. II Is
also one OF the most profitable.
Indeed. it is doubtful il any other do
nestle animal contributes SO much to the
comfort and happiness of man. 1t gives
Us lood. raiment and lodging. Think OF
the roasted saddles OF Soulhdown NUT
ton, the boiled legs and juicy chops
think oil lamb and green peas, lamb fries
and boiled. lamb chops and then OF
lambs wool socks. wooden blankets and
the thousand varieties of fine wooden
fabrics which should make Us feel CRATE
ful as We come out unscaihed from the
rigor OF a semi arctic winter. There are
in the United States about $1,000, 900
sheep, worth not less than 800, 200, 900
while their annual increase and wool clip
may be considered rs worth $50, ,0OC
more. This is part Of the permanent
wealth of the country. There may be a
the same time about SOC, 900 of dogs in
the United States, allowing one dog &c
ten people. and portion of these dog
live by ravsging tie sheep farms.
But am not disposed to wage an cx-
terminating crusade against the Who'll,
canine race. Dogs have their virtue.
aud their uses too Think OF the noble
and life saving New Foundland and ST
Bernardi the sprightly terrier. the sa
gacious retriever and the fidelity of near
IL every variety. and then cease to pro
scribe the whole species.
The trouble is not that we have dogs
