ItrfruUttM 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. South Western Farmer. From the SoutKern Cultivator. Jefferson Hall, Greene Cos. I June 15,1843. $ Messrs. Jones :—The enclosed recipe, which is doubtless a good one, and which is simple and easily procured, I wish pub lished in the Southern Cultivator. Yours, respectfully, a. g. “ 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 time It is said by a knowing old lady of 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. Greene county, June 19. Wilkes County, Ga., June 24, 1843. 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. LIST OF LETTERS REMAINING in the Post-Office, Washing ton, on the Ist day of July, 1843.

SPENCER’S 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, “R. E. TOMPKINS, kn. I 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.

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 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. .
