:. Sheep Husbandry.

y It is useless to try to deceive anyone.
with regard to the sheep which are gen
;erally slaughtered in the United States.
Such mutton would not sell at all in
England, and Americans are beginning
to find out that they like the common
grade Cotswolds Of Canada much better
than Merino grades, and a great many
sheep pay the heavy taxes the United
States put on the Canada live stock, hav-
ing been purchased by New York agents
for the best first-class hotels; and also for
some of the private families on Fifth
avenue.
+ It is not intended to run down Merinos,
for they are acclimated, and will also
bear neglect and hard times better than
other breeds, but it is desired to recon-
mend the crossing of Merino ewes with
Cotswolds or other rams Of mutton breeds,
and 20, on breeding with thoroughbred
mutton rams which will then bring into
existence "a very fine quality of mutton
and good wool, both Of which will be
salabfe in any market at top figures.
The expectation Of beef and mutton
win do great deal toward the improve
ment of meat, and very soon the exhaus-
ted soils of the Eastern States will be
brought up for sheepwalks, as also will
be the case, even toa greater extent, with
all the Southeastern States. Capitalists
in this country are extraordinarily igno.,
rant of the extensive field now opened
for speculation in real estate, or they
would take advantage of the present op:
portunity to possess themselves of the old
cotton plantations, and thereon grow
mutton and wool, for they could make
ten times more by wool than cotton, and
get all the mutton as a second and extra
profit ~ - ~ q
am positively certain, if I had the
control of large tract Of land, that,
without the aid Of single. white man
and without any assistance in buying or
selling, 1 could stock these deserted plan
tations with sheep and put them in
charge of fhe negroes, so as to have sheep
husbandry established on 10000 acres,
and in twenty years make more money
than "A. T. Stewart, Jacob Astor and the
Vanderbilts combined, for / would ex-
tend till millions would be made an
'nually. There would be great advan.
tage here over the English colony of
Australia, yet their sheep are more nu,
merous than in this much earlier settled
country.
Statistics have proved that in the
South during the last three years wool
has paid go per cent. for growing, while
cotton has not paid more than five to
seven per cent, and then it must be re-,
collected the sheep have been managed
on such a poor, miserable system that
double this amount of profit could be
made by an enlightened method of treat
ment, and mutton of the very best quail
ty sold annually, which would enhance
profits far beyond anything the present
| Western sheep-owners have any idea Of (;
mutton and wool would produce more
millions than cotton ever did.

for all those who will make me their sub
stitute and will trust in me- When q
man has chance between heaven and
hell, to escape the one and win the other,
and refuses to do so, I ask, Does he not
