sheep Raising.

? Raymond Gazette.
: The more We hear and the more
We read about the success atten
dant upon the raising of sheep it
this State the greater is our won.
der that more of our people do not
engage in it. 1t requires little or
no preparations, no special farm ar.
Engagements, no costly outlay, nor
is there AN acre of land in Kinds
county outside OF the swamps that
would not nswer for sheep range.
We hear of a man in Rankin
county who started with a flock of
a half a dozen sheep less than a
halt dozen years ago. He has been
eating good mutton ever since, has
sold sheep, has clothed his family
from the sale of wool, aud to day
has over 800 sheep on his place,
worth $3.50 "a head.
To-day there is a successful far
mer within four miles of Raymond,
who, four years ago, bought two
lambs for which he paid So. From
this commencement he has had
these result: l. He has brought to
his table II good muttonS. 2. He
has sold 8 head, for which he receiv-
ed S26. 3. He sold wool the first
year to the amount of So; the SEC
ond year to the amount of S13; the
third year to the amount of SIS:
and now has his fourth Years clip,
worth about S20-total for wool.
S57. And 4. His flock now mum
bers 3S head of sheep. Aud it has
all been done with but a trife of
attention and labor, aud without
expense.
We must repeat that it is strange
that any farmer who is at all set.
tied, can afford to do without u
flock of sheep.
But we have heard it said that
we cannot raise sheep and dogs
too. Possibly not. Then let us
dispense with the dogs; and they

dogs in Kinds county now consume

Valuable Invention by a CoIOred
Mississippian.

Hoscdale Journal.
Ben. Taylor, a colorcd man living
in this place, has lately returned
from Washington, whittier he has
been to secure a patent for Il new
steam engine, which he had invent.
ed, aud which, if the judgement of
many experienced and scientific
men 10 whom he has shown his
model is correct, is calculated to
revolutionize the pres MT applica-
ton of steam. The engine is ro-
tary, having the steam applied at
the circumference of a wheel, Civ
ing this treble the force OF ordinary
engines, with no distinguishing Of
power at the various stages of the
revolution of the wheel. This in.
vention dispenses with all the ma
chlnery except the one-whpel, which
answers at once the purpose of
cylinder and driving wheel, and
two steam boxes through which
the steam is applied. 1t is estimat-
ed that engines on this plan can be
manufactured at one.fourth, or less,
the cost Of those now in use: and
their simplicity and the possibility
of making them of extremely light
weight will extend the use of
engines beyond the present
Ben. Taylor, the inventor,
is a sort of mechanical genius, hav,
before manifested an insight
into mechanics Of no ordinary de.
gree. His invention, if nothing
.alls-and the probabilities are in
lis favor-will rank him among
first inventors OF the day.
