ten times more by wool than cotton,

had the control Of large tract of

gle white man and without any as
sistance in buying or selling, I could
stock these. deserted plantations with
sheep and put them in, charge ofthe

sbandry established on 10000 acres,
and Id twenty years make more
money than A. 7. Stewart, Jacob AS

There would be a great advantage
here over the English colony Of Aus
tralia, yet there sheep are more nu-

settled country! Statistics have
proved that inattie South during the
last three years. wool has paid,6O per
cent. for growing while cotton has
not paid morelthan I've to seven per
