Sonic few years sinew, Mr. Skinner, Etliior of tho Farmer’s Library, (hen residing here ns Assistant PosimnHler General, with his incorrigible addiction to the cause of Agriculture, ad dressed certain inquiries to Mr. Clingman touching tho soil anil climate ami price of lands in his Congressional District in Norih Carolina—in reference especially lo its udaptulion lo 1 Sheep Husbandry. Mr Cliitgman'H answers were published in this paper at llie lime, and attracted much notice, ns revealing, for that portion of his Stale, rich capabilities not generally appreciated or kno** n. Since then the subject seems to have been attracting mure and more alteulion, until t.*ow it has been taken up sys tematically, for a patient and thorough investigation, in a ac tio* of letters, appearing in the Farmers ’ Library, (published ut New York and edited bv Mr. Skinner.) from the pen of n gentleman in the Western part of New York—one who, as it would seem by the follow in? communication from Virginia, brings to the question n ample stock of personal experience, with the further advantage of familiarity with all that has been written on the general subject ‘These letters, when the ae ries is completed, will, it i* understood, he published in a de tached form, illn.-'t ated hv well executed engravings, and promise to make a complete manual for all who mnv desire ei ther to embark in it or to understand it in all its bearings. The general scope of these letters, a* far a* they have yet appear ed, is described in the following communication, which as it could not now appear in the Farmer’s Library before June, is presented through our columns,in llie full persuasion that the matter is one of interest for n large portion of out country rea ders. Attention has, wc see, been apparently called in the Courier and Enquirer of New York, to proposals in that paper “for the establishment of n Sheep-fold of one hundred and twenty-thous and head of sheep in Western Virginia.” In the mean time, and in view not so much of these letters 1 as of the various nnd high order of the contents of every num ber of the periodical in which they are published, and of its un inistakeahle value tor every one who would appreciate the lit erature and be well posted up in all the great improvements that science is confering on Agriculture, we cannot forbear ugain to recommend immediate subscription lo the Journal it. self.— National Intelligencer. SHEEP HUSBANDRY IN THE SOUTU-MR. If. S RANDALL’S LETTERS. J. S. SKINNER, E-*q.—As tt citizen ol one of the Southern States, an 1 a practical agriculturist, I have perused with deep inters*! the aduifruhlc se< ir-s of letteis which have recently ap peared in your valuable magazine, on the practicability, ex pediency, and util ii % of introducing Sheep Husbandry among, us to u greater extent than ha* hitherto prevailed. The au l* r ot these letters, Henry S. Randall, Esq ,of Cortland coun ty, New Yolk, ia evidently thoroughly familiar with the sub ject lie has undertaken lo discuss in all its departments; and 11 it is due lo him to any that both the mutter and the manner of rhe*e communication-* indicate not only the experienced ag ri* “Muriel, but the finished scholar and the close and discrimi nating student The array of authorities which he has brought to beat upon his favorite topic* no less than the skill and judg ment with which they are marshalled in support of his views, leave no ro. ui lo doubt the extent and variety of his investiga tions or tliegeuer.tl soundness of the conclusions deduced: while >he detailed results of his own long experience in this paiticular brunch ol farm husbandry ar** invaluable ns practi cal confirmations of ihe theories which they are designed to iliustr te and support. I am free to confess that I entered upon the examination of the pr mla brought forward in support of this writer’s views with no very sanguine anticipation!* of his ability, however grout his itigenuiiy, to establish toe hypothesis with which he set out, viz: that anew and most profitable and permanent staple might, without difficulty and nearly w ithout expense, be added to ihe productive industry of this quarter of the Union, which should not only serve for an adequate supply of the home demand, hut afford a constantly increairing surplus for exportation. The stut'siics, however, of the first letter—the compilation nnd arrangement of which, by the way, mast have com Mr. K n vast amount of luhor and research—induced me to doubt whether, after all, we of the South had taken the ne cessarv pains lo ascertain fully the advantages of our position, soil and climate in this lespect; und as 1 progressed in the in vestigation I became more and more interested in the mguinent and in the tacts brought out. Surely “if this great object can be achieved,” in the language of Mr. R., “and by the same means the husbandry of the regions now under cultivation be made to assume that mixed and convertible character which w ill both udd to their present proceeds and better sustain their fertility for future demands 011 them, a benefit will he confer red on the South,the present >nd final results ol which it would he difficult to over estimate ” Let us see, then, how far forth the fads of thr case will sustain the hypothesis of the writer. The fact that “woollen fabrics constitute an important item in the imports of ilip Southern States.” and that “for these they exchange the proceeds of 110 inconsiderable proportion of • their industry with the Northern States and with Europe,” is clearly incontrovertible; nor does it seem to admit of any question that an immense di-parity exists in the growth and 1 manufacture of wool in the Northern and Southern States—a disparity not satisfactorily, mv judgment, lo he accounted for by any circumstance in tiie relative condition of the latter ae to soil, climate or resources, when compared with the former. Il being, then, conceded that the aggregate number of sheep and the aggregate amount of word ill Ihe single State of New York, w’ it ii a population of two and a half millions and an area of 46.0011 square nii'es, exceed very considerably the same pro ducts in llie Ira States south of the Potomac and Ohio and west ol the Mississippi, (including Louisiana.) with a popula tion of over six millions and an urea ol 495,000 square miles, Mr. R indall enters upon an examination of the causes and reasons ot this state ol things. “In itwrr any rim**,” Be tbw ( property i.qiHi*-r., mifrin Ysmntr whirls iidara them lc iuvornble to tin- health or w 001-producing qualities ol ihe sheep, or is there anv iliiug in their top graphical features, soils, herbage, or other circumstances which unJUs ihe in for a natu ral aud east adaptation lo sheen husbandry I Or have they other staples so much more profitable that it is not an object lo grow wool V* * With reference to climate and its effects upon th** health and wool-piodiicing qualities ol the finest families of sheep, he has satisfactorily demonstiated that or ibis as well as on the eas tern * oniinenl the mo-t healthy tdieep have long been reared under every degree of latitude adapted to ihe herniation of man —“fro * t lie equator to the sixlv-fifth degree of north latitude, trom the burning plum- nf Africa and Asia lo the almost per petual trostsoi Ireland,” on the eastern continent, and in the lowest, hottest. Mini most unhealthy parts of the Southern Stales. He Iteuce legitimately, a- 1 think, draws the conclu sion that, “so tar as health is concerned, we are assuredly au thorized 10 assume the position that no portion of the United States is too warm fur sheep.'’ As to the wool-producing quality of the animal, Vlr R. takes issue with the deductions w hich an examination of the census of 1840 in this particular, might he supposed to authorize, and institutes a rigorous and claae cross-examination of the returns ol the marshals, result ing in tli conclusion that ‘there is no great difference in the average product of wool per head in Stales separated by from ten lo tilicen degrees of latitude, and no more than is clearly refer abb to incidental or extraneous causes , unless w choie to the conclusion (hat the difference is in favor of the Southern States. ’ Me adds that “the comparative statistics of the ex- j treme Southern States themsel* * s show that in a majority of rases their best products of wool come f> om their south* rn and warmer counties.” Warmth of temperature, in his judgment, so tar from being injurious, is on the contrary “absolutely con dative to the production of wool.” His reasoning on (Ins head secuis to me conclusive. “Warm climates afford green nnd succulent herbage duntig a greater portion of the year than cold ones. Sheep plentifully supplied with green herbage keep m higher condition than when confined to that which is | dry. High condition promotes those secretions which form | wool.” In his second letter Mr. R. admits that, 1 other things being I equal, the pelage ol the sheep and Some other nnimule becomes finer in cold climates and eour-Ar in warm ones.” This effect he is disposed to attribute chiefly to the mmouatand guotity of the nutriment After citing the opinions of Youatt, Dr Parry, and various | English staplers m corroboration of the tendency of Briiiah ! wool to a- leiiwration from tin* effe< taos artificial and ton stint- ‘ ulating food, In* uonftrioa the result thus obtsined by bis own experience ns a sheep-breeder, ahd Hilda: “If >ha sheep breed er lA warm climates can lake advantage of the tendency to pro duce greater quantifies ol wool, following tjint supply of suc culent h 1 huge throughout the year which nature hns. placed at Ijis disposal, ami at the sunro tim?, by any uiKvxpensive means which lie can employ,combat the correlative tendency to inmcuM eearaaneas ot fibre, he lias, most assuredly, other ! things being enual,** entire advantage over the breeder in cohler regions. That the tendency heie adverted to can be, nml in numerous instances and under a great variety of cir cumstances lota hern, combated in southmn climates, Mr R. effectually and clearly demon at rales. This is effected by tem perature am) pasture, hy rarelul management, and selection in hieothng. Tie* so* eepsful acclimation and preservation of the Merino ram a* tar south as Australia nml the ('ape of Good Hope, without an* perceptible d* lermraln nos their wool, suf ficrentlv establishes this proposition; nnd the testimony of tbs Hon llenr* Clay ami Mr. ( octroi, of Tennessee, both of whom hav<‘ succeed'd without difficulty in producing wool of I lit* tin#*** i fibre, notwithstanding the temnersturr of the climate, puts the matter hey 01 and *ll reasonable doubt. The wuirnth of 1 the cmuaie. h"ws*er. may, in Ihe npiniou nt Mr. U., increase both the length offibre and ihe eoftness of staple. In this third letter Mr. H. addrmecn himself to the import ant inquiry whether there is “ any thing in the natural features, amis, h >rhage,fec. of the Bout eru Siuies which uufits them for a natural amt easy adaptation to sheep husbandry ?” Ui vidi *g the va-t region *ouh ol rb** Ohio and Potomac and west af the Mississippi mlu three met met tones, parallel to each olher and to Hie Ailanrie const—* ig : the lower or tide water zo <e skitting the Atlantic ilia mobile or hilly* and the moon tauous — h* examines with a critical eys, snd with the aid of VOL.

He regards ,h*e Bermuda or c3llnd crass, the wire grass of Virginia, as by far the best, most nu anj‘ profitable, as well for pasture as meadow, on the Sterile sands ot this rone, “h has been tried as far south as New rleaiie, end ihe cliiUHte found no detriment to it. It will Mist “ V” JrV r’ n i l,ar " n “ nd ” Mr - Affleck statea era's end Pi'?i f * , . 00k l °f Wry descriplion to ail mher crass, and it grows luxuriantly in every kind of soil.” “One hundred pounds of grass sfford npwnrds of fifty of dry hav • ‘* • erop. fi” ton of hay per acre e.ici sensrin. No oilier grass will yield such an amount of valu able hay, surpass it in nutri'ive qualities, support on an acre of pasture auch a quantity of sto.m, or improve ihe noil more quickly. See. In addition to the obvious advantages thus ac i rumg fro.ll the enltivnlion of the grasses, Mr. H suggests those derivable.from the pea. whiehhe regards as valuable to ihe rtoiith as dover to the North. Both tha soil and climate, IWHI* judgement,see peculiarly adapted to the development of Uiiri |i -I ni. “Hop sheep, ami particularly for breeding ewM,” “* ‘"serves •• there is probably no feed in the world equal to uu ely cured pea hauhn.with aportion ufihe umhreshed.” Hye, outs, and htrlev. sown in the fall, afford likewise sweet a*eu pasturage for sheep during our Southern winter. Blade* of corn, well cured, are nine r*li*huble by them,and are terard ,.V , ' ,r i v ‘ n * h“d. So with the weet potato©. I lih cimiclumod which Mr. R. deduce* from hi* researches m tliH lirancli of the subject may perhaps beat be stated in his own language: “The foregoing fane* show that the Southern St te* nave already all that I* necessary to feed stock and fer ttu/.* their fields.

ACCOMACK. Drummond lon, Fa., May, 1847. MILITARY CHARACTERISTICS OF GEN.TAYLOR. There are two leading characteristic* by which military commanders generally and widely differ, and which give to their genius its distinctive character. Impetuosity and cau tion form the two extremes—an impulsive energy and an in vim tble resolution divide them into two classes. Among the ancient* Alexander the Great and Hannibal—among the mod erns I’rince Eugene and Marlborough, and more recently among the Marshals of France, Murat and McDonald, present illustrations ot this difference. Such commanders as Freder ick the ‘2nd, Bonaparte and Wellington, may he said to com bine all ihe beat characteristics, so as to present not an exclu sive a trait of military character as we have placed at the head of these respective divisions. Gen. lay lor is to be ranked in the latter of these categoriee. He exhibits an example of energetic determination—of invinci ble will that places In* name by the side of thoee which rank mi this cln-n fictitioii, among the eminent master* >n the art of w ar. Ihe impetuosity that hazards ail in the peiil of the fight, from lion constitutional vehemence—that uncalculating hero ■'in which ili-.iHiiiH to measure difficulties or to estimate ob siHcle* fi.oU its appropriate representative in a Mural or L Ur- i but ill it more subdued temperament which unites ‘•null li Wl ll Iff (‘irrciTOil i,, ■sfc**l’ •A.rtfctllgTv reflected im**” h captains as Lay lor and those with whom he m at close ly compares. Eh it of these separate characteristics is valuable in com mand. and perhaps most valuable where the oppoaile qnali nescoine into collision, either in commanders or soldiery.— How of en has the im|teiuous charg**, impelled by daring courage been repelled by the steady bravery of determined baiuliioiis, and li> W frequently as the fury of an impulsive chid spent itself agtinst the unsubdued will the unconquera ble resolution ol a lender whose decision could not be shaken or bis caution baffl'd. It has been said of i'aylor that he knew not when he was beaten, He sliaies in this commenda tion with Masse ua. in whom the same impregnable will pre dominated This difference denotes a dietincitm of races It shows itself in the opposite qualities of the Latin and Teuto nic nations of Europe, as it presents a similar, but not so mark ed a contrast between the Anglo Saxon and Mexican races on this continent. In the ciicomsiancea in which he was placed the peculiar temperament of Gen. T .v> or presented a singular adaptation to his c ommand on the Lio Grande. Coolness in danger is an ordinary military characteristic. Stralegetic skill and evei. scientific combination are tha possession of sev eral. The gift ol command, by inspiring confidence and witi* iiiug attachment, is the attribute of aiany. Hut that combina tion of (polities which not only opposes to the impetuous on set collected in all emergencies—under every dis advantage of position and of numbers—exhibits an unshaken self-reliance and an iron will, presented iu mi* case the most available, if ibt the iimat brilliant, military characteristics.— If Gen. Tat lor fin* possessed a larg r share of impetuosity— a more impulsive spirit—|f bis singular endue aunts bad not conferred on him a natural fitness for command on the Rio Grande, our campaign may not have had so fortunate xud fall • cilous a termination. 1 here is on.** p cuiiarify In Gen. Taylor** military leadership | shat cannot bo lorgotteu, for it will form an important chapter | iu military history, and by which lie exhibited that merit I winch ia never accorded except to the highest talent for war. ! It was i bought to present a trait of c on* u nun ale skill when Frederick of Prussia, environed in Hilesia by almost over j whelming numbers, preserved unbroken Ins fins of interior ciuninunicatinn. Boiuiparte h*a acquired laurels as verdant a-* any of those won bv tiis moat brilliant actions, by a similar •peciea of desert in 1814. in the fields of Champagne. Let any one now cast his view hack to the scene where Gen Taylors line of interior communication wi so constantly threatened. • Let tha attentive observer retrace that extended field ofopera- I lions, by wlnch he combined tha strategy of attack with the skill tbai belongs to the defence of such a line. Will it bo said, alter such a survey of the difficulties of his position,and the mad quafly of hia rorce, (list he will not advantageously compare with those captain* who not only foucht their bah lb s with unanrpaesed energy, but axhibied a foresight that belongs lo a high order oi military meritT And if ihara was no scope for those larger combinations which denote the pres ence of rare military nccomplialiment.it will be recollect'd that we claim lor him not the intellect by which all the char acleristies for command are presented infelicitous union, but that Hast of understanding which gives lo one division of gen eralship large caution, the force of a accent rated will, tin* shaken resolution, and uuaurpassed perseverance.— Chariot - toJ'oCeniHg Aftfl. ChkemFOL*RSl.—Cheerfulness, unaffected cheerfulness, iO what you must bring into company, if you wish to shins ia conversation. We do not mean by this, any ol’ moae oudbrout - ings of mirth, nor what tha world sometimes calls M a high flow of spirits,” but a light and airy equanimity of temper, that ne ver rises to bniaicruiianess, never sinks to dullness— that moves gracefully “from grave to gayt** from serious to serene, and by mare manner, gives proof of a feeling heart and gener ous mind. The high and boisterous flow es spirits, so often praised by the superficial observer, that keeps up during a par ty, or visit, and than sinks down to absolute bullishness, is, on the other hand, the sura sign of a coarse nnd vulgar mind. Too Classic bt Half!—Mr. Bowden, member of Con gress from Alabama, addrosaiog some of hie country cooetitu | eats the other day near Montgomery, in speaking of Mr. Polk, i termed him “the last of tho Romans f” •‘Wall,” said a coua- I try man standing by, “I am darnstioo glad to hoar that tho breed is so wall nigh run out.” Tha efloct woo awful!
