English Investments in American Cattle.

According 10 a Western operator it
appears that during the last few years
the English have invested heavily in
American stock cattle, and are now
reaping a rich reward for their ven
lures. 1t is estimated that nearly one
sixth Of all the new herds in the colln-
try are owned by English capital. That
the English have hit it so far there, is
not doubt, but whether their good
fortune Will continue is quite another
matter. Many say that the present high
price of beef is due to the large body of
cattle Withdrawn from the market to
raise herds. The enterprise of the
English has aroused the Americans, aud
American capital is now seeking invest
ment in cattlc-raising out West. 1t is
the large amount Of foreign capital
seeking investment in cattle that has
driven the price up so high. Cattle this
spring are higher than ever before for
stock purposes, and twentv-eight dol
lars, thirty dollars and thirty-two dol
lars per head are not considered too
high prices to ask. hope soon to see
cattle lower, when they can be bought
for saysixteen dollars to twenty-five dol
lars per head. Not that l am sanguine
that such viii be the case. The cattle
business has been so long neglected that
it can not be picked up at once in the
face of Il population of 50, 200, 900 of
people and their enormous demands.

Buffers Washington Houses.

The Washington correspondent of the
Providence Journal says: Governor
Butler, of Massachusetts, is to be
called upon to defend his title
to the massive block of granite
houses built by him on Capitol Hill.
The land was purchased, it is said, by
Thomas Law, a brother of Lord Ellen
borough. He was for some wears con
nected with the East India Company,
and amassed a large fortune in India at
the time Warren Hastings was Governor
General. 1t was asserted, although
never proved, that Law emigrated to
America to avoid being called as wit
ness in the Hastings trial. When he
came here he brought $500, 900 in gold,
and soon fell in love with Miss Gusts.
the granddaughter of Mrs. Washington
and the sister of George Washington
Park Gusts. To ingratiate himself with
General Washington, he made large in
vestments in land on Capitol Hill, and
the General favored his suit. His mar
riage was not happy, and it is asserted
that when divorce suit was about to
be commenced by Mrs. Law, her hus-
band conveyed his real estate to
friend. The consideration was but nom
inal, but the papers are said to be legal.
and they We're recently found in a secret
drawer by the friends grandson. Some
of the land has been taken for the en-
largement of the Capitol grounds; other
portions are occupied by the Butler
block and by the Coast Survey.

Prof. J. P. STEELE, agricultural ed
itor of the Mobile Register, thinks the
southern States admirably adapted to
raising hogs, and that by the new re-
trigerating inventions pork may be
saved at the South as well as anywhere
else. The long-continued warm wealth
er is favorable to fattening and cheap
pork, since hogs can not be kept up and
warmed by stoves and wood fires in cold
weather, and it is expensive to warm
them by heat-producing food like corn
and peas He thinks pork can be made
at less cost in the South than in the
North
