An Intelligent Sheep-Oo..

An instance of extraordinary intel
ligcnce is given by a correspondent
Of Lind and Water. The gentle
man who witnessed the event was a
short time since Oh IL visit to Scot
land, and during one Of his walks
came across some men who were
washing sheep. Close to the water
where the operations were being ear
ried OH was u sheep pen, in which il
detachment of ten sheep were placed
handy to the men for washing.
While watching the performance, his
attention was called to a sheep dog
lying down close by. This animal,
on the pen becoming nearly empty,
without a word from any one, start
ed off to the main body Of the flock
and brought back ten of their num-
Der, and drove them into the empty
washing-pens. The fact of the dog
bringing exactly the same number Of
sheep as had vacated it he looked
upon at first as a strange coincidence,
a mere chance. But he continued
looking on, and much to his surprise
as soon as the men had reduced the
number to three sheep, the dog start
ed off again and brought back ten
more; and so he continued through
out the afternoon, never bringing
one more nor one less, and always
going for fresh lot when only three
were left i'll the pen, evidently being
aware that during the time the last
three were washing he would be able
to BRING up a fresh detachment.

Pure Water r Mich Cows.

Although water added to milk may
be obnoxious, proprietors of mich
COWS cannot expect that the udders
will be extended with the delicious
liquid unless the animals can have
access to a generous. supply of clear
water. During the sultry days of
summer, pure water for cows is as
important as grass. When COW is
thirsty she must be supplied with
water or the process of connecting
milk will be more or less arrested
Hence the quantity Of milk will con-
tinue to diminish. Soon after COW
has filed herself with feed Of any
sort there will be demand for wat
er. But if the animal cannot obtain
a supply the partially-masticated feed
in the rumen will soon begin to heat
and ferment, causing arrangement Of
the entire system.
Il is a bad policy to require mich
cows to drink ut ponds Of standing
water, which Is \ prevailing practice
Buchanan County bulletin. [volume] (Independence, Iowa) 1869-1891, 1874-08-21

in many sections Of the country.
When animals are allowed to go mo
the water and to stand in it, unless
there is running stream, the water
will soon be fouled and unfit to drink.
In such instances it will cost only a
tritie to dig shallow well, provide a
large trough and draw u generous
supply every day, either with cheap
pump or bucket. a pill Of water is
as refreshing to a thirsty COW or
horse as a goblet of ice-watcr to a
thirsty laborer.-Mear Inrk XernM

TIE CE.EF-JUsTIcEsHIP.- State Jour-
nal also thinks some better safeguard should
be given to protect the Supreme Court Of
the United States against "the introduction
of personaland partisan influences" II Sug-
gests that an amendment Of the Constitution
would be required to meet the case. That
depends upon what the Journal proposes,
Unless that paper would take the appoint
ment Of the judges of the court from the Pre-
sident, an Smendment Of the Constitution
would not be required. A law places in his
binds the appointment of the ChiefJustice !;
al amendment of that law would be all that
IS necessary to give to the court the appoint
ment of its own presiding officer. We ina.
CINE the slow process of changing the court
by death would not give President the op.
portunity to affect its opinions by the intro.
duction Of partisans to fill the vacancies
From Congress comes the danger Of parti
sanizing the court by increasing its mum
ber. However, this outrageous expedieni
is not likely to be resorted to except in times
Of violence and war and no matter what
safeguards might then be in existence, they
would be overridden by the unscrupulou
passions Of party.

The County Courts,

The cry is heard in all quarters for the
restoration of the county courts to their
former dignity. e., to the condition they
were in before the last Legislature undertook
to improve our judicial system. We trust
that the Legislature that assemblies to-day
Will, amongst its early good deeds, give back
to the people their courts as they We're. The
old county court of magistrates never can
be resurrected; and the court provided for
by the Constitution, with the Judges
"learned in the law" is the best possible
substitute for the old tribunal ofmagistrates,
famed for its purity and its justice.
1t has been suggeste that as the county
court judges were elected by the last Legis.
lature we cannot now improve the capacity
of the judges By improving their compensa-
ton. This is very true. But in answer to
this we may say that the judges that were
elected under the compensation given be-
fore The law of last year was passed were
generally reelected. They expected that
the amended law of last session would be
repealed at the present one, and therefore
held on to their offices.
Then We may assume that the courts gen.
orally have competent judges-judges who
will not continue to hold their places with
out an increase of compensation.
Together with the complaints against the
degradation of the county courts comes the
demand for relief for the circuit courts.
They are overwhelmed with business. The
large addition of business thrown upon
them by the transfer Of cases from the coun.
ty courts renders it necessary that the num-
Der of circuits shall be increased, or that the
jurisdiction of the county courts shall be
completely restored. Economy, comfort,
justice, and the rights Of the people demand
that this latter shall be done.

Our Policy towards Spain.

Our Government instructs Mr.. CUSHING to
60 for" slavery in Cuba-to tell the Ma
drid Government that its abolition will pro-
mote the peace and the prosperity Of the
island. This sort of interference in the do
nestle affairs of friendly nation is against
the policy of our forefathers; but that is
now small affair. Still, we think there is
great deal OF assurance in the suggestion
that Mr.. CUSHING has to obtrude upon Spain
that abolition will promote the prosperity o.
the island of Cuba. What does the Presi
dent think Of Jamaica What does he thinl
