He opened the door and "ahemmcd"

"Oh," said Miss Rosamond, without
turning around, "you've come at last,

half through the job myself by this time,

rs representatives OF the republicans Of the
District. The latter were naturally indisposed
TO allow this brazen piece of impudence on
the part of Bowen 10 go unexposed; hence the
action resulting in the convention of to day.
The delegates they have elected are certainly
representative republicans, as well as gen.
tlemen Of standing and character, and they
very properly send them TO Cincinnati unin-
structed. Whether Messrs. Bowen and Green

provement, has doubled the yield of the
grain crops in England, while In the
United States, where there is positively
no system of sheep husbandry In gen.
eral, and shepherds are totally I'M
known In district after district, wheat
&C.. produces less than half 1t did tor-
merly. and there are whole counties
which cannot grow at all.
If mutton or wool were grown In the
West instead of exporting wheat If
wool was grown In the South instead of
cotton, and If sheep husbandry was In
augurated on sound sensible system,
there would be more grain and corn
grown, and millions of sheep raised an
nually to enrich the farmers and at the
same time enrich the soil. Surprising
all the millions of sheep in England
could be instantly removed, and for ten
years none were kept, 1t would give an
immense bulk of produce for sale which
would have been eaten by the sheep, or
at least the land growing it would have
grown food for them, but in the ten
years hence the soil would be so reduced
In fertility that the absence of all the
mutton and wool formerly grown would
be dead loss to the country. This Is
really no fancy of the Imagination, for
such would be the result, and as GER
talnly would an exact contrary course
produce opposite results on this CONT
nent, for if every farmer In the United
States was compelled to keep rs many
sheep as he has acres, in ten years his
land would yield more than now in adj
ditlon to what would keep the sheep

Mutton and Wool.

On all large farms in England, sheep
abound, and OH arabic land they are
proportionally much more numerous
than cattle. In Australia, wool Is grown
to very great extent, and though there
is no protective duty in the first-men-
toned country, mutton and wool pay
better for production than beef or any
produce. excepting on the rich grazing,
old, permanent grass land, which is
never plowed. Even on the permanent
pastures and mowings mutton and wool
are also grown, for ii Is found that by
grazing with sheep at some parts of the
year, the heritage Is improved. 1t APP
pears extraordinary that sheep should
not be kept In the United States in
great numbers, Instead of being UNI
known for miles together. Foreign
wool Ia not imported without paying a
heavy tax. and the climate In all the
northern states cause fiannels and all
wooden materials TO be worn generally.
Beef Is being sent to England, paying
we'll for the sending, and az mutton is
correspondlngly dearer in England
than beef, 1t would pay still better fol
the expectation.
Mutton and wool can be grown at fai
less cost In labor than corn, grain. beef
cheese. butter or pork, which makes II
seem still more astonishing. more es.
pecially as manual labor Is more ex-
pensive In America. II is well known
in the old countries that sheep keep up
the fertility of the soil, and Increase
the yield per acre of all land which
they run over or are folded on In short.
