FATAL PASSION, OR GERFAUT. BY Charles de
Bernard, translated from the 4lst Paris Edition,
by o. yibeur. New York. G.. W. Carleton & Co.
For sale by Bailey & Noyes
This is the first of this writer's works that
has ever been offered TO the English reading
public. The original, however, has passed
through an indefinite number of editions,
the 41st being by no means the last, and in
deed the book possesses many qualities re-
quired to make it favorite novel with read
ers. Neither is it without a moral, for it
aims to show that marriage, under the most
favorable circumstances, and even though
provided with every apparent requisite of
happiness, must eventuate in catastrophe,
unless it contains the indispensable element
of loce. Altogether, ii is a remarkable book,
and rather superior, if anything, to its sue
cessful predecessors in the same series-sShe
Loved him Madly," and $50 Fair yet False"
from the pen of the same translator and also
published by G.. W. Carleton &c Co.

Classifying sheep at Fairs.

We may and do have particular breeds that
seem especially adapted to our wants, while
some of the other breeds would be more prof
liable in other localities. By encouraging the
varied classes, we obviate the embarrassment
of an over-supply of one particular kind OF
wool. As general rule the sheep shown at
our Fairs are owned by breeders of thorough
bred stock from different parts of the coun-
try, who sell breeding stock over a wide
range. covering nearly all the states and ter
ritories in the Union. If all breeders should
show but one breed, we think it would be
narrowing down the usefulness OF our Fairs,
so Jar as sheep are concerned, to too small a
point. Again. the One-class system gives
managers of fairs an opportunity to favor
some special breed. by appointing committees
known to be favorable to such breed. If not
so appointed, it would be difficult to select a
committee whose opinion would agree on the
different classes.
| A breeding fl ;ck SHOULD be so uniform that
the few sheep shown at the fairs would be a
| fair representation of the entire flock. Such
| focks, il the standard of excellence was high,
| should have weight with the committees. II
it is the object of our agricultural societies t.
| stimulate improvements, we believe 1t should
| use all available means to that end. We viii
| suggest an improvement which, If carried out
| we think, will accomplish the object sought
| In che first place, we should make three clas
ses for the MerinO sheep, and subject each to
| the same rules, as follows:
| Commencing with the stock ram, he should
| possess the characteristics of the breed in the
highest possible degree, and, if of sufficient
ace. should be shown with a sufficient mum
ber of his progeny to show his powers o
transmitting his quality. The younger ram
should represent the same, excepting progeny
Pens of ewes of proper breeding age shoul,
possess the same uniform characteristics aboy
mentiored, with a sufficient number of thei
progeny. The younger ewes same as youn
rams. This would draw out a sufficient mum
Der from each breeder to show what the gen
eral character of his flock was, AMI to sho,
other breeders and wool-growers how thos
results have been obtained. The display {
one or two sheep Is Of but little consequence

The Civil War in America, by the Comte
de Paris. The first chapters of this work
have been published in the Rerue des Deur
Mondes, and hence the present communica-
ton to Blacktr0od, written by General Off
Ger of the late Confederate Army. A history
intended to occupy seven volumes cannot
with any fairness be judged by its pselimina-
ry chapters: but the General Officer Is nm
able to restrain his indignation at the authors
evident sympathy with the care of the North,
and rushes somewhat hastily into print, to
denoInce him as partisan writer, and not a
historian. Not content with determiping
prematurely how the Comte de Paris has
written book, he seems also bent upon set
tling "why he did TIA matter with which
literary critics seldom trouble themselves.
