Three Dolls, per annum.^ Volume X..J INTERESTING TO FARMERS. I A l'ubfcriber lately iuggeited the utility that might result, from a comparative view of the expences and pi ofi's, of raisin Horses and Sheep, and favored us with his cal cula’ion. It appeals to be a very nalonatde eflimate of charges, and the comparative expcr.ces are, in our opinion, very jultly balanced : Expcr.ces of raising one Colt, viz : Finding the mare one win ter, including loss of the life cf her and other una- dols. voidable expences. 40 00 Finding tin* colt till 4 years old, at 39 dols per year, 120 00 Amount, 160 00 Rilque of the life of the mare & colt, during the railing, is worth the in tend! of the amount for one year, 9 69 dollars 169 GO Expenses cf keeping twenty Sheep jor four years. Feting 20 iheep 4 years at 2 dollars a year each is 40 dollars a year, and 4 years is dollars 169 00 Tiny will prrbably raise in the time 80 hmbs, at 2 a llmseach, which ought to be deduced, ICO CO Th v I produce annual ly SO dollars worth rs w >nl, which will be a nett gain of 120 00 By this calculation it will appear, that the horse when raised, rr.uft fell immediately on riftr.g f< >ur years old, tor the sum of 169 dollars and CO cents to make the farmer whole for the exncnfes of railing him— And ofcourfe, if he should remain one year on hand witfvut profita ble employnu nt, the whole expense of keeping a full grown horse a year, fay 60 dollars, mufl be added. But the business of raffing sheep, calculated to the lame amount of txpenfe, refunds the cofl of feeding and leaves to the farmer a nett pro fit of 120 dollars. To which may be added the confiiteration of con tinual inc.reafe, by keeping them to any length of time. The advan tage then in favor of raiftng sheep, rather than horfcs, is fufficienrly proven by this estimate. And the itninetife and irreparable loss to in dividual., Si the community, which attends the keeping ol idle horses, should lead men to pursue a more rational course. It is unqueftiona b.y true from the prerriiles, that the expenses of keeping one idle horse i i an ordinary life time, fay twenty years, would be twenty times sixty or 12<K) dollars—a lum fuffi ient *->to buy your fun a neat little farm, forever loft. The fame expence Employed for the famet'cim in raif tvz sheep, would produce at lead m/the fame amount in abiolute gain. * *i he loss attendant on keeping art i cilt horse, should be added to the sum which with the fame money differently applied might be gained that is 2400 dollars more.— Thtn the fair t c-. urn, that the comparative ud ‘i riifmg WASHINGTON, CGrorgiaJ Phihthd weekly roR SARAH HILLHOUSE. sheep, rather than keeping one fnrplus or unneceflary horse in 20 years, is 3600 dollars.

Extract cf a letter from general Arm strong to Mr. Snath, dated Pans, Ith April, 1810. “The emperor left Paris two days ago for St. Cloud, whence lie to Compeigne, where he will remain till Eaffer. It is not prob able that I shall have an answer to my propositions till he returns to Paris. The day before he set out he gave me a ship to carry myfelf and family to the UniteJ States.— The tninifter recommended that I should not pin myfelf dawn to a day as to departure, as circumstances might make it proper for me to stay somewhat longer than I new intended.
