Sheep for Texas.

III. +. Taylor of West Cornwall has
sold to 5. j, Wright of the firm of Ma
son q Wright of New Haven and Geo.
L. Dimmock of Nergennes his entire
lot of % yearling rams. They will be
shipped to San Antonio. Texas, the lat
ter part of this month and offered for sale
there early in March. None of them will
be % months old at that time; and their
average age will be less than 20 months.
The dams of the entire number are
registered Spanish Merinos. The sire of
40 of them is Mr.. Taylor's French Meri-
no ram "Blacow," and of the remainder
L. q. Farnham's Jay Gould" These
rams are of pure French Merino blood,
descended directly from the Rambouillett
flock. "Blacow' was bought by Mr..
Taylor of |. Roberts of California
"Blacow'' was bred by Mrs. Blacow,
widow of celebrated California breeder.
Mr.. Blacow's flock was started in 1860 by
the purchase of an imported French ram
and II ewes from John ID. Patterson.

The fiftv rams in question are therefore
of half French and half Spanish Merino
blood. They are of large size. averag-
ing nearly 100 pounds each; we'll cover
ed, but plain, with very few folds OF
wrinkles. 1t is claimed for them that
they possess the qualities most needed in
sheep for Texas and the West-that they
are easy TO keep, particularly in large
flocks: that they have strong constitu-
tons and will bear exposure. and, most
of all, that they are good both for WOO
and mutton. These are some of the
points which their fri nls claim fol
them. Messrs. Wright and Dimmock
have long been engaged in the sheep
business and would not put their money
into these animals unless they had faitl
in their value and selling qualities. Il
should be stated, in conclusion, that this
is not picked lot. In 1882 Mr.. Taylor

of holding the State convention to choose
delegates to the Chicago convention. BY
vote of the Republican National conven-
ton of 1880 the National Republican COM
mittee was empowered to fix the mode
of representation in the next convention
in such way as to "secure to the several
congressional districts in the United
States the right to elect their own dele
gates to the National convention" The
committee in their call for the National
convention at Chicago, June 3, provide
that the convention shall consist of four
gates-at-large from each State, to be
chosen by delegate State convention, to
be called on not less than twenty days
public notice, and held not less than
thirty nor more than sixty days before
the meeting of the National convention,
and also two delegates from each con-
gressional district. 1t is further provid
ed that 1.-The Republicans of the various
congressional districts shall have the OPP
ton of electing their delegates at several
popular delegate conventions, called on
similar notice, and held in districts at any
time within 10 days next prior to the
meeting of the State conventions; or by
subdivisions of the State conventions in
to district conventions; and such dele
gates shall be chosen in the latter method
if not elected previous to the meeting of
vention cannot, therefore, be held before
April or after May 3.

The House of Representatives has
passed bill that Is exciting discussion
1t makes ignorance a valid defense
against the infringement of a patent. The
Scientific american. which of course looks
at the question from the point of view of
the patentee, says:
The pretext for the recent action of the
House of Representatives, in connection
with suits for infringement, is essentially
false one. There has been no general
practice of the sort alleged; from the ma
ture of men and things there cannot be.
As class, patentees are not eager for
lawsuits; indeed. suits at law are rela-
lively fewer in connection with patents
than with any other species of property
Of equal scope and value. And the pro-
portion of all the patent suits that could
by any forcing be brought into the class
complained of by the patent committee
must be and is extremely small. If pre-
tended owners of patents harass people
by threats of suits for Infringement, the
proper course is to turn the offenders
over to the local authorities for punish
ment, as in the case of all other petty
swindlers, and not punish all patent own
ers for the crimes of a few prctenders to
patent rights.
