SHEEP IN THE SOUTH.
Important Facts.— ln Chester District,
South Carolina, there is a gentleman who
has been breeding sheep thirty years. He
was lately written to for information on the
subject bv one of our subscribers, and he re
plied at considerable length. This gentle
man’s experience sustains the opinion here
tofore expressed by us, that this is the very
country for sheep. An impression prevails
quite generally among Mississippians, that
sheep and wool will deteriorate in our cli
mate, and this deters many from entering
with spirit into sheep husbandry.
To correct ‘.his evil and erroneous ex
pression we mean to leave no effort untri
ed. We therefore ask pardon for taking
an extract from a strictly private letter,
from the gentleman in South Carolina, a
bove mentioned. He is a man, as we have
said already, of 30 years experience in
sheep-breeding ; of fine education, and of
extensive observation : having
much of the best portions of Europe, lie
is a practical as well as a scientific farm
er, attending in person, to the operations on
his own farm. His word then, is authority
on the subject, and he says:
“ The quality of wool will not deteriorate
in die South ; and with proper care, can
be preserved as pure in the South ae in the
North. 1 have some merino .ewes and
wethers, a cross of the Escuiral and Guada
loupe breeds, now giving as fine wool as the
original stock, after breeding them in and
in, upon this farm, without any change for
thirty years.”
It is unnecessary to explain why no new
cross or rams were used, if it be remember
ed that Chester is about 200 miles from the
seaboard, and that there is no fine stock in
that region. As to the quality of mutton,
every lover of that delicious meat knows
well that the mutton of the South is unri
valled ; yet on this point also, we shall
draw upon the above-mentioned letter.
“ The opinion,” says the writer, “ as to
the inferiority of merino mutton is mere
prejudice. After the experience of thirty
years I can say from my own taste, and the
praise of it at my own table, that it is equal
to any mutton in the world—Welsh mut
ton not excepted.”
The writer knew what he was speaking
about, for he had bred South Down, Bake
well and Tunis.
We earnestly entreat our farmers to bear
these facts in mind, and to. pay more atten
tion in sheep husbandry. If only a part
bred buck, with a few ewes, were commen
ced with by every one that has the means,
it would be an immense advantage not only
to owners but in the country.

Messrs. Jones :—The enclosed recipe,
which is doubtless a good one, and which
is simple and easily procured, I wish pub

“ Cure for the Dots. —The editor of tire
Baton Rouge Gazette states, that he is in
termed by gentlemen who know, that strong
tea, made of common garden sage, is one
of the most effectual remedies for buts in
horses ever discovered. Also, a branch of
sage chopped into the feed of horses once a
week, will prevent the bots altogether.
When your horse is taken ill of the bots,
give about a quart of strong sage tea, and
he will recover in a few minutes.
The above remedy is simple enough in
all conscience, and has this to recommend
it—if it should do no good, it can do no
harm; and being innocent in itself, is, we
should think, worthy of trial.”
Cure for Bots in Horses. —Make a strong
decoction of tansey tea, bruise and press out
the juice, and drench with a quart at a

Morgan county, to be the very best of rem
edies It is also stated, on good authority,
that the grub, drooped in strong tea of the !
above plant, will immediately die.

Messrs. Editors:—l will comply with
your request for all your subscribers to
communicate their experience to you, or at
least a part of it. As lam not accustomed
to writing I hope you will correct all mis
takes.
The subject to which I would call the
attention of farmers, is one of great impor
tance to them—it is :
THE CULTIVATION OF THE GRASSES.
There is very little attention paid to this
subject in this county, and very little in the
State. Ido not know of a single farmer in
this county who sows any kind of grass
seed ; they say there is plenty to cut up
now without planting more. Now Ido not
know of one good reason for not planting
grass seed. We can have as good clover
here as at the north, and there are a great
number of grasses which are natives. I
have had grass growing in a square to my
garden, three feet high, and which made as
good hay as I ever saw. It is the kind
called here “ crow’s foot.”
It seems as if our farmers would rather
have their cattle poor and starving, than to
be at the trouble of sowing grass to make
hay for them, when there is nothing for them
to eat in the fields. Now this is all wrong.
If they would build good shelters for their
cattle, and provide enough for them to eat,
they would find it more to their profit.—
Cattle when sheltered do not eat as much
as when kept in the cold blast of winter— !
. where.thev get on the sunny side of a fence 1
and shiver as if almost frozen. Another
thing, cows give more milk when k pt un
der a warm she: r, and and- not eat so much
by one-third I u-ked a farmer last winter,
how his cattle stood it l lie replied, “they
could all get up without help and that was
all.” There is another thing in which our
! farmers ure at fault— it is, tiny keep too
many cattle. If they would keep fewer
and keep them well, they would be gainers
by it.
It is a matter of rejoicing that the people
are waking up to the importance of improv
ing their land and keeping better stock. I
will not encroach on your valuable paper
farther. If you think the above worthy of
a place, give it. You may hear from me
again. I remain your friend, a. o.

VEGETABLE PILLS|
A PUBLIC BLESSING.
rriHESE Pills have long beon known and ap-
I predated, for their extraordinary and im
mediate powers of restoring perfect health to
persons suiifcririg under nearly every kind oldic
, ease to which the human frame is liable.
They are particularly recommended to all
those persons who are alflicted with any kind ot
j a chronic or lingering complaint, as there is no
| medicine before the public which has so natural
, I and happy effect upon the system in correcting
■ the stomach and liver, and to the formation ol
i healthy chyle and thereby purifying the blood.
They are acknowledged by the hundreds and
| thousands who are using them, to be not only tho
j most mild aitd pleasant in their operation, but the
most perfectly innocent, safe and efficient medi
. cine ever offered to the public. Those who
once make a trial of these Pills, never afterward
i feel willing to be without them, and call again
I anti .vain for more p which is sufficient proof of
their goou qualities.
HEADACHE—SICK OR NERVOUS.
Those who have sUliOfed a!*d are weary of
suffering with this distressing complaint, will
find Spencer’s Vegetable Pills a remedy at T'ucc
certain and immediate in its effects. One single
dose of the Pills taken soon as the headache is
felt coming on, will cure it in one half hour en
tirely.
Asa remedy in summer and bowel complaints,
| they display thoir wonderful powers to admira
tion, and are far superior to any tiling in use for
these complaints.
In Dyspepsia and Liter Complaint, they stand
unri.vaiied. Many have been cured in a few
weeks, after having suffered under the dreadful
complaint for years.
In Habitual Custiveness, they are decidedly
superior to any Vegetable Pill ever brought be
fore the public ; and one 25 cent box will estab
lish their surprising virtues, and place them be
yond the roach of doubt in the estimation of eve
ry individual.
They are invaluable in nervous and hypochon
driacal affections, loss of appetite, and all com
plaints to which females alone are subject.
They are mild in their action, and convey al
most immediate conviction of their utility from
the first dose. They may be taken by persons of
any age; and the feeble, the infirm, tho nervous
and delicate are strengthened by their operation,
because they clear the system of bad humors,
quiet nervous irritability, and invariably produce
sound health.
Upwards of three hundred and seventy thousand
boxes of these inestimable Pills have been sold
within the last twelve months in’ three States a
lone, and more than three times the same quan
tity in other States.
As an anti-bilious medicine, no family should
be without them. A single trial of them is more
satisfactory than a thousand certificates.
TESTIMONIALS: •
Columbia co, New-York, Sept. 12, 1841.
Dear Sir: —l take much pleasure in bearing
testimony to the efficacy of your Pills in remove
ing Bile from tho Stomach ; and ift all complaints
emanating from that source. I would also say
that their mildness and certainty of action, ren- :
der them a safe and effective purgative for weak
ly individuals; and that, they may be given at all
tunes without apprehension of any of those inju
rious consequences which so frequently attend
the application of Calomel, or Blue Pills.
On tiie whole, I consider your Vegetable Pills
a valuable discovery. Very respectfully,

Extract of a letter, from a highly respectable .
Planter, in the State of Louisiana, and resi- j
dent in New-Orleans, under date,
September 28, 1841.
There was several Bilious attacks on my plan
tation last summer, and I never knew an instance
in which your Pills did not answer everjf pur
pose, when given in the first commencement of
the disease ; and there has also been six or sev
en different cases of Chills and Fever, and your
Pills have cured every case without the slight
est disposition to a return of the Chills ; and I
think your Pills the best remedy for the com
plaints they are recommended to cure than any
medicine I have ever used. Every family should
always have these Pills on hand. I have no
doubt that your Pills have saved me §l5O Doc
tor bills this season.
My overseer had a daughter who had the
Dropsy, and she lias experienced great relief
from the use of one box ot the Pills. I also gave
one box to my brother-in-law, who had taken al
most every thing for Dyspepsia, and they have so
tar relieved him that lie thinks one box more
would cure him entirely ; he says they are tho
best Pills to cleanse the blood that he knows of.
Yours, very respectfully, T. F ANSON.

| • PROSPECTUS OF THE
savankah shefOslioan
To our Friend* in the Interior.
D (Thing the hist thro# years the Savannah
Republican has been much increased in
size, ami its editorial and working department
have been no organized that K has been in our
pouter to distribute a vast * mount of usctul in
formation among our readers in the low country,
the number of whom lnw more than doubled. —
Our circulation is not ru great in the interior,
however, as it ought to bo. Hitherto wo have
been completely cut off horn the up-country, but
now, by the completion of the Central Railroad,
we are brought near to it, and Savannah i trum
necessity and will be its commercial mart. Here
tofore we have made no efforts to extend our
circulation in the interior, but the tune has now
come, and we call upon our frieuds of the State
Rights Party of Georgia to lend us a helping
hand.
Our future course may known from what we
have done. To tin se who have not read our col
umns it may be well to say ti n we shall contin
ue to prosecute the war which we commenced
i,ear three years -.pon “..he People’s vety
Democratic Central Bunk.” The neck of this
monster is now umrir the heel of the people,
and its promises to pay are received at their just
discount. We now point to the borrowers from
this institution, who are suffer. ;g under its grind
ing efforts to collect money, in a time of unpre
cedented scarcity. We :■>:■■■■• no. L.-.te V.: de
nounce the ifi.’ldbgei a C.,que, ’• t:o have
long lorded it over C‘ r t'.gh'.s ed latter ed ouom
substance, while they ha.d iy — krupted die State
and, not content with thir ehg <*t their number
has embezzled about §130,000 of tnC public. mon
ey. We shall denounce in bold •.•■■.-ms *uC*i P&l*
try subterfuges as have bean practiced by tliC
Loco Foco party, and expo.-o the worthlessness
of McDonald tea and coffee, the increase of taxes
under the promise to dimmish them, the improv
ident, dishonest, c rrupt. logi-daiion, by which, a
foul stain has been cast upon the escutcheon of
tins State—such legislation an any cel of men
ought to Wash to be ruucurt:<l in. We shall
occupy a niodera e, iTtensiific ground us relation
to a Tariff,—equally !rcfr<>i.. ’ taxation fer
the support of the United States Government, on.
a people already oppressed, and its opposite of
excessive protection. The proven’ tariff, v’
its high and protecting duties on wool!” . ; ot
ton and iron, we object to. Wo id sec a
tariff for revenue, with only, slight countervailing
and discriminative protection.
Such are some of the general objects for
which we labour, and shall continue to labour,
. and we invite all friends to the good cause—that
of law and order—to aid us in our efforts.
With regard to I he News and Commercial De-’
partments of the paper, we are determined that
nothing shall be wanting. For our future dili
gence in this respect, we will only refer to whai
we have already done. We purchased the Re
publican with a determination to build it up and
to make it the business of our lives, and we see
nothing to discourage us in our efforts, but eve
ry thing to urge us on.”
To the politicians of our party especially, it
must be a matter of importance to extend the
circulation of the Republican, because we are
of course and of necessity, the medium of com
munication between the sea-board and all the
: other papers of the Slate. As we perform our
duty to the public and our own party, so will the
people and that party taro well or ill. One thing
i all may rest assured of, even if our previous
course was not already a guarantee of it, —we
will pursue an independent, straight-forward,
uonest course—or at least, that which we be
| lievo to be so, and that is synononymous with
j the moral principles of the Whig party. In short,
we will do every thing which lies in our power
,to enlighten and instruct our readers. We may
not always come up to the demands of party ex
actions, but when we deviate from them, be sure
that we feel that our country has higher claims
and should always he served before party.
We feel that we have a right to cali upon our
Whig and State Rights friends in the interior
to furnish us the means of increasing our influ
ence. Let each of our present subscribers pro
cure us one or two more, and the thing is done.
We pledge ourselves to give a good account of
them.
W e prefer this mode of communicating with the
public to sending out an agent, as the expense
attending such a proceeding, is ‘generally too
heavy to be borne.. We intend however, in a
lew days to publish a circular embodying the a
bove, copies of which we shall take the liberty
of forwarding to some of our friends in the interior.
We have only to add the terms of subscrip
tions, which are, for the Daily Paper .$lO, and
for the Country, (tri-weekly,) $5, per annum.—
Payments in all cases to be made in advance or
what we consider equal thereto, a City reference.
