Sheep Better Than Cattle.

There are two sides to all disputed
questions, and both must be examined
If we would ascertain the truth. AS to
which are most protitable-sheep or
cat,e-locaton SOIL and other consd-
erations must be taken into account IN
determining. A. Hyde gives some of
the advantages the shepherd possesses
over the herdsman. AS follows:
In the first place a stock of sheep
costs less than one of cattle. A farm
which will carry twenty COWS,
will carry about eight times as
many sheep, and to stock farm with
twenty COWS and corresponding fixtures
will require an outlay Of Il thousand
dollars. An equivalent number of
sheep (say one hundred and fifty can
be purchased for about half this sum.
Again, flock of sheep demands much
less care than "a herd Of COWS. The
latter must be MIXED daily and the
work of the dairymaid in making but
ter and cheese Is constant and labori-
Gus, demanding also skill Of high
order TO make it eminentlv successful.
Then sheep will live and thrive where
cows would starve, or al least make
poor returns. These nimble animals
will climb over rocks and hedges where
COWS would not venture, and aim ost
every herb that grows, even down to
Canada thistlcs sutiices then. for food.
Pastures are greatly benefited by being
cropped by sheep. They not only keep
down the weeds, but have more fertil-
izing material in their droppings than
do COWS. In the milk of the latter,
much phosphate Of lime and other sa-
line, as well as nitrogenous matter, Is
removed, but sheep carry off only what
is on their backs. A flock of sheep also
muluples much more rapidly than a
herd of COWS, and this is specially true
Of the large mutton breeds. which often
produce twins. Not to he too particu-
lar in the enumeration of the advau-
tages Of the tlockmaster over the herds.
man, | will only add that sheep fatten
much more easily than cattle, and
when slaughtered they furnish not only
meat but wool, the latter an article that
not only keeps indefinitely, but pays for
long transportation.

the worthy Mr.. Bronton-and went inn

for the recovery Of the amount Of the

A few days later Alexander Bronton
stood at the bar of justice to answer in
MS own behalf. 1t seemed SO easy N
case 10 him that he did not deem ii nee
essary to employ any counsel.
Mr.. Campbell swore TO the facts he
had related 10 me concerning the loan.
Mr.. Bronton answered, on oath, that he
had no recollection of ever borrowing
any money of the ,lAintltf. Ii he did,

any body to produce it.

pocket the vial containing the solution,
saturated n piece Of blotting paper with
it and pressed it upon the blank slip
of paper which lay on the Judges
desk,
4 few seconds left il so, then lifted
it up, confident of the result; and was
not disappointed. The blank slip of
paper was suddenly transformed into
promis3ory note; every word, letter and
figure as clear as sunshine.
1t was Il note of six thousand dollars,
with a years interest, drawn in favor OF
William Campbell, aud the signature
OF Alexander Bronton was at the bot
tom of it,
The Judge gazed in amazement from
the note toward Alexander Bronton,
just in time to discover that that tricky
gentleman was skulking away toward
the door. AT tAe Judges order he was
brought back by an officer and inform
ed that he would have something more
to answer for than the amount OF the
loan, with interest and costs.
And so he had. Abashed and terri
fed at the discovery OF his unsuccessful
swindIe, and in hopes OF propitiating
court, he at once gave his check for the
amount due Mr. Campbell, md paid
the costs. La view OF his cohesion he
was let off with two years imprison-
ment, and don't suppose he will ever

him that he had performed his duties

the statement Of the youngster, when
the superintendent laughing assured
him that it was true; he wished him nc
longer than nature had made him
The conductor felt that he would still

TELEGRAPH MARTYRs.-If any set of men were
ever martyrs to their high sense of honor and
their duty to their employers, telegra ph opera
tors are surely the men. The last case is that
of the operator at Topeka, who has been placed
under arrest by order of the House of Represent
atives, because of his refusal to answer certain
questions relative to dispatches connected with
the late Senatorial election. The keen sense of
honor of the average telegraph operator does
not shrink from quietly informing his chums
that, from certain messages passing, this or that
business man is about to "bust," and will be
closed up in few days; or giving the leaders
of the political faction that he trains with, the
wink, informing them of the tricks set up by
the opposite party; or acquainting his particu-
lar bosom friend of sudden rise in produce, as
learned from private despatch received by
rival speculator, enabling said friend to get the
start of said rival; or Thousand other little
tricks, ell requiring keen sense of honor. But
let him be brought before authorized COM
mittee of Congress or State Legislature, for the
purpose of exposing bribery and corruption
dangerous to the public welfare, and he will
howl about his honor, and the violation of con-
fidential communications, and the integrity Of
his employers, until you can hear him, as Blaine
says, from the Penobscot the Sacramento.

STATE HISTORICAL SOCIETY.-We have receiv-
ell from Judge +. G. Adams, Secretary of the
State Historical Society, the First Biennial Re-
port of the Secretary, making pamphlet of 63
pages, and containing synopsis of the transac-
tions of the Society, and catalogue of the Ar
tcles contributed. These embrace very large
ing newspapers files, books, pamphlets, maps,
pictures, manuscripts, antiquities, &c. Judge
Adams is devoted, heart and soul, to this work.
and is making a collection that is priceless.
The Society is cramped for room for properly
disposing of its collections, but when the add-
tion to the State House is completed, it will
have room devoted exclusively to its nses, and
everything will be put in good shape.

THE CHINESE BiLL.-The excitement, for this
last week, was the bill passed by Con gress to re-
strict Chinese emigration. The gu estion had
two sides to it, and the side for restriction WAS
ably set forth by Senator Blaine, In his letter in
reply to William Lloyd Garrison. America is
called the asylum of the oppressed, but it is a
question whether this should be construed into
license for the most degraded and diseased
population of a heather country to swarm here
By hundreds of thousands, to the detriment of
civilized citizens. There is no similarity in the
cases of the negro and the Chinaman. The ne
gro was brought here against his will, and kept
in slavery for generations, until this became his
country much as that of his oppressors. The
Chinaman comes against the will of the Ameri-
can people, who desire to put stop to it before
it becomes rs dificult aud dangerous question
as the negro problem did. But the President
has vetoed the bill, which postpones the subject
for the present.

QUICK WoRK.-where there's will, there's .
way. This was illustrated, last week, in the
passage Of the Doniphan County compromise
and refunding bill. Finding that there was no
hope of the passage Of . general law, at this
session, Mr.. Leland went to Topeka, to secure
the passage of special law, which, he had been
informed, was . matter of great doubt. He
reached Topeka on Monday, and at once had the
bill introduced. The rules were suspended, the
bill read first and second time, considered
engrossed, placed upon third reading, and pass
ed all in the space of few minutes. Then it went
to the Senate, where it went through the same
process, and on Tuesday the bill was ready for
the Governors signature. As it was almost a
copy of bill previously passed for the benefit
of another County, its provisions were well un-
derstOod.
Mr. Leland says he was especially indebted to
Mr. Legate and Mr.. Riggs, who, with their par
liamentary tact and their prompt movements,
pushed the bill through.

BLooD.-Tbere are epidemics Of blood, as Of
disease. Such an epidemic is surely prevailing
at this time. The telegraphic dispatches in the
daily papers abound in affairs of blood. Murder
and assassination run riot everywhere, and in
every conceivable manner and shape. The
South, as usual, furnishes the bulk of these
transactions, bnt no section or State is exempt
from them. Human life is held of no account,
and murder is committed upon the slightest
provocation. Yet, with this increase Of the
worst species of crime, the efforts of so-called
humanitarians increase to lessen the punish
ment of the offenders. cry of horror goes up
against hanging, ten times greater than against
the murder for which the culprit is hanged.
When the punishment for murder is but little
moro severe than that for theft, the crime will
be as common.

NUMBER TwENTY-FIvE.-The Highland SeHfi-
mel, we understand, has succumbed, for the pres-
ent, at least. So We learn from a letter in the
ST. Joseph Gazette. written by person who had
been employed in the Sentinel Office, who says
that the paper has suspended This makes the
25th newspaper death in the County aud now,
for the first time in seventeen years, the Chief is
the only paper published in the County. Since
the Spring Of 1852, there has been another pa
per at some town in the County, besides the
Chief We presume it will not be long until
some else makes venture, impressed with
the belief tha: there is wealth in Doniphan
County for two or three newspapers. But until
that time, the Chief will try to give all the news,
and to do justice to all localities and all parties
Those who want County paper, but have .
dislike to belping the Chief along, might sub
scribe for three months, or such q matter; and
II, in the meantime, another paper should be
started, they can quit the Chief and pay the
new concern a couple Of dollars, to be euchered
ont Of the greater part of it, as usual. Thank
ing those who have stood by tbs Chief right
along, whe shall do our best TO give them the
full amount that they pay for. No man has ev
er yet lost his money by supporting the Chief.
We learn that it is expected that we shall
preach funeral sermon on the deceased. We
may as we'll correct 8 misapprehension upon
that subject. We have not preached the funer-
ais of any papers in Doniphau County, e1cspt
those that set out with the determination to
preach ours; therefore, We have preached but
few sermons ont of the twenty-five deaths.
There was not much of the Seatinei to preach
over. If we wished to preach one for it, We
could do as the Sentinel did with its wit-bor-
row for the occasion-and make it brief and
to the point. We should simply quote the we'll
known epitaph upon very small baby:
