7 SHEEP K1LLED.-On Thursday night last,
number of dogs made a raid upon the flock of
sheep belonging to the Poor House farm in Rock
ngham, and killed and wounded fourteen. Sew.
eral strange dogs were followed by persons liv-
ing on the farm, and one of them shot in the
head, with small shot, but was not killed. 1t
proved to be young setter dog belonging to
Capt. F. A. Dangerfeld which had been coaxed
off by shepherd dog, belonging to III. Gray,
Esq. Both were subsequently killed, and two or
TIL ee others belonging to the farm where the
sheep were attacked.
THE Posi- OFFIcE.-Mr. ]. S. Jefferds, chief
assistant Postmaster at Richmond, came up on
Friday last to assist Major Hartman in the ar
rangeRlent oe the Staunton Post Office. The ne
cessity of removing the Office from the old room,
and the difficulty of getting suitable one, has
caused some embarrassment. The room selected
on Frederick street, and into which the office was
removed last week, has been found unsuited or
the purpose and large room in the Picker
building, on Augusta street secured, into which
the office has been removed. The present apart
ment is well adapted for post Office, and after
the necessary Accommodations have been fixed
up, everything will move along smoothly. 1t is
the best room that could have been secured, and
the best that has ever been used for that purpose

sportsInen was ont yesterday On the
grounds back OF the BGttereup furnace
shooting at the imaginary binds, which
are composed of sheetiron. The con-
trivance used is very ingenious, one af-

When all is in readiness the pigeon. by
some mechanical device, is sent ~hirling
through TIE air for distance Of about
40 yards, resembling III its flight the
gyratory movements Of living BIRD.
The variety of harmless and exciting
sport afforded by the ''syro. when
properly conducted, far exceeds that OBJ

iu preference in many Eastern cities, es-
pecially in places where Bergh has sue
