this prisoner. During her trial for the
murder of General Ketchum, several
deaths occurred in the families of jurors,
and last evening John R. Arnold, deputy
sheriff, on going home after leaving the
court, was drowned IN the Severn river,
by breaking through the ice. Arnold has
brother on the present jury. Attorney
General Syester was called away from the
trial on Monday on account of the i'll
ness of his mother-in-law, Mrs. Susan
Harvey, of Hagerstown. and that lady
had died before he reached home.

What a LOudOun Farmer has to say
about Dogs and Sheep.


about Dogs and sheep.
To the Editor Of the State Journal:
| see the subject of dogs VS.. sheep
is being discussed in the STATE JOUR-
NAL, at some length, and as | am
interested in the subject, and desire
something done by our law-making power,
l thought it would be in place to give my
experience in this line. Five years ago
last summer | went north and bought 5l4
sheep to keep on my mountain farm. When
we got through we had 500. They seemed
to do well for time, but during the winter
we lost a number. In the spring they be-
gan early to thrive, and became healthy and
took on flesh finely, so that we began to
think it was not bad investment after all.
But soon the dogs began their ravages, and
we lost sometimes near twenty night, and
almost every week the dogs would be
among our flock, until we lost some sixty,
and as many more were bitten. We lost
most of our lambs, so that our loss from
the dogs in one winter and spring, could
not fall much short of three hundred dol
lars. This was larger tax than | was
willing to pay, and as soon as we could, we
got clear of our last sheep, and do not in.
tend to try it again until there is some.
thing done to protect sheep, besides guns,
which we used to the best of our ability.
We have three guns and three boys to use
them, and they can do it as we'll as any
body ever saw, but we were threatened
by some of our neighbors, and if any dog
was missing we were accused of killing
him. We were not willing to have half Of
our neighbors against us, feeling that we
were their enemies, and still lose as we
were doing.
There is much land in Virginia that is
worth three times as much for raising sheep
as it is for raising grain, and certainly it is
the most pleasant business that ever fol.
lowed, and at present prices for wool and
mutton, | know of no business that pays
as well on farm. A FARMER.

still visit the place to view the wreck of

the earth, fly the smallpox flag, decep-
ton, we presume, but nevertheless a timely
