The cheapest meat for the farmer Is
mutton. 1t may safely be said to cost
nothing, as the fleece from a sheep of a
good breed will pay for its keeping.
Then, for additional profit, there is o
lamb or two, the pelt of the animal, If
killed at home, the excellent manure
from its droppings, and the radiance of
the pasture from weeds, to which
sheep are destructive foes. With the
exception Of poultry, mutton is also
the most convenient meat for the far
mer. A sheep is easily killed and
dressed by single hand in an hour,
and in the warmest weather it can be
readily disposed of before it spells.

the healthiest kind of mcat.-[Ex.

action with reference to the payment of
the very heavy expenses incurred by
the illness of the late President. It
seems to be accepted that if Congress as
sumes the payment of the civilian ply
sicians, Drs. Bliss, Agnew and Hamil-
ton will not expect less than $4,000
each for their services. They consider,
it is said, that the direct loss to them
for inattention to their regular practice,
expenses, &c, will amount to one-half
of this sum. No bills, it is said, grow
ing out of the care of the President
during his illness have been rendered,
although Mrs. Garfield has in several
instances requested that they be sent to
her. OF course if Congress is to pay
the bills, every one concerned will rem
der much larger accounts than if Mrs.
Garfield was to settle, and DR.. Bliss in
timated that he and his associates
would not take anything from Mrs.
Garfield if the Government should not
pay. The proposition which appears to
meet the most favor is that Congress
shall designate, or authorize the Presi-
dent to designate, one or more persons
to act as commission to audit all bills,
which, on their report, shall be paid by
the Secretary Of the Treasury.

The Old Fashioned American Writers,
They are dying out fast, these old
fashioned American litterateurs, and we
shall see few more Of them; to say the
truth, they were an artificial product
after all-the careful tillers of a delicate
exotic plant under an unkindIy sky !;
but their writings had pleasant Old
World flavor of their own, mixed with
a certain indefinite undertOne of some
thing not European, yet eluding all at
tempts at analysis, which made them
pleasant morsels to roll upon the criti-
cal tongue when man had nothing
more serious to occupy him. One can
hardly say wherein the peculiar humor
and pathos of Washington Irving diff
fered from anything English, but they
did somehow differ, and it was just that
difference which gave them their spe-
cific value. In Mr.. Lanman-theugh
we must honestly confess longo intervallo
one still tastes something of the same
indescribable SORT.
