We suggest to capitalists that in
asmuch as the Legislature seems de,
termined to pass law to make it un-
safe for them to loan their surplus
capital in this State, that they APP
ply it to the building up of manu-
features in our midst. This would
certainly be more profitable than
loaning money with the prospect Of
losing the premium upon it, and be-
ing fined besides,

ANOTHER IgEM FOR THE LEGrsLA.
TuRE. We learn that Messrs. Jime-
son somerville and VIM Brown, each
had several head Of fine sheep killed
by dogs, last week. Shepherd dogs
are said to be the worst Of all the
canine species to kill sheep. They
are good dogs when we'll trained and
well handled, but left TO themselves
they will naturally take to killing
sheep. Farmers should exterminate
this breed where sheep are raised.
