[From the Atlanta Herald.]
There is no subject that should
more earnestly engage the attention
of the people of Georgia than the
question of sheep raising. It is the
pleasantest, safest, most profitable, i
and regenerating culture, that can be
devised. We present below, some in- •
foresting statistics upon this subject, j
nearly half a million sheep.
There wore in Georgia, in 18(50, ac
cording to tho U. 8. census, 412, bib i
sheep.
The U. S. census of IS7O, gives the
number of sheep in Georgia, as 419,-
4(55.
According to the returns of the 1
Tax Receivers, collected under the
auspices of this department, the num
ber now in the State is 419,323. Tins
shows a decrease from 10(50 to I '7O, j
of 92,153, nnd from 1870 to 1875, of
100,112 sheep in the State, of a de
crease, in fifteen years, of 193, 295, or
39 per cent, decrease during a period
in which there should have been 100
per cent, increase.
beats a gold mine.
The average annual report on the
capital invested in sheep m Georgia |
is 03 per cent. This presents a very
marked contrast between the prohi-s
of sliei'p raising and cotton growing.
Tho average annual <• ;st per hem!
of keeping sheep is only fifty-four
cents. In answering to Questions
No. 13, the average cost of raising a
pound of wool is only six cents, while
the average price for which the un
washed wool is sold is 331 cents, or
27 J cents not.
An average of 74 lambs are raisod
for every hundred ewes, notwith
standing the ravages of dogs.
The average yield of unwashed
■wool to the sheep is 3| pounds, which
at 27| cents net, gives an average
clear income in wool from each sheep
of 94 cents.
The average price received for
lambs sold to the butcher in Georgia
is $1 87. The average price of stock
sheep is $2 58 per head.
The average price of mutton is re
ported at $2 75 per head, 90 per cent,
of tho correspondents report dog-; tho
principal, and generally, the only ob
stacle to sheep husbandry.
100,000 sheep killers.
From tho same source from which
the number of sheep in the State is
.obtained, we learn that there are 99-
415 dogs in Georgia, and that they
.destroyed between April Ist, 1874,
and April Ist, 1875, 28,725 sheep.
May we not find an explanation of the
.decrease in number of sheep in tho
..above figures ?
The statistics collected by tho Tax
Receiver 'seem to coroborate the re
ports f these two sots of correspon
dents, rinco there are 31 doge for ev
ery one hundred sheep, or nearly one
to three, Mid sinco these dogs are al
lowed to destroy in one year 28,025,
-worth $73,752, or 9 per cent of the
value of all the slice]) in the State.
Notwitbstamflug this loss, tho annual
profits are (53per cent. Remove the
cause of tho loss, the annual profits
will be 72 per cont on the capital at
present invested in sheep, and the
amount so invested would, in a very
few years, be quadrupled, when the
clear profits, at the above rates would
bo $2,372,(578, per annum—more than
tho total receipts into tho treasury of
tho Stato in 187-1, and more than one
fourth of the Stato debt.

At this rate, even the number at
present in Georgia will fertilize annu
ally 25, 544 acres.

planted in cotton, and that without
the sheep manure it would produce

GEORGIA AGAINST I’K.'&WYLVANtX
Mr. David Ayers, of Camilla,
Mitchel in Southwestern
Georgia, snow never falls and
tho ground seldom freezes, and where
forest is enacted!
f-iHV.I; alive (flips' hi"? sheep—j
51,500 in number—cost him annually
fourteen .cents per head, clip throe
pounds of unwashed wool,which sells
at thirty cents per pound, givir a
clear profit of ninety per cent on the -
money and labor invested ir**ho .
Lands suited to sheep raining cun is
purchased in this section of the State|
for*from $1 50 to $lO per acre accor-;
ding to location. Mr. Ayers dor. no;
feed his sheep at any time during the ;
year, neither lias he introduced the;
improved breeds, using only what is |
known as the native sheep. Of course i
tho cross of the Spanish merino on i
this stock would give better results in l
both quantity and quality of wo- i. :
These sheep receive little care except j
to be gathered up once a year to be
sheared and marked.
Mr. John McDowell, of Washing- •
ton county, Pennsylvania, keep.-. 050,
highly improved sheep, which cos
annually $1 50 per head to keep them, i
He aims to make his wool clip;
clear, which averages four pounds of;
brook-washed wool per sheep, and ;
sold this* year at fifty-six cents per ;
pound, or $2 24 for each sheep shear
ed; but the last crop cost, on account j
of the severe winter, fifteen cents per ;
pound, which makes his income per
sheep $1 60. His sheep are worth i
$3 59 per head, and his net profits’
are forty-six per cont. on tho capital,
invested in them.
The laud on which Mr. McDowell
pastures his sheep is worth abi .it In
ly dollars per aero, or fully ton times!
the value of that ou which Mr. Ayers’
flocks feed.
In other words, Mr. McDowell, in
tho tine farming regions of ' . •. p. l
vania, must invest, supposing that lie
jkoops two sheep to the acre and Mr.
Ayers one., live times as much in laid
as Mr. Ayers, to make one-half the!
profit on the money invested in i
sheep.
It will thus appear that where sheep
husbandry is made a specialty, South
ern Georgia has a decided advantage j
over Pennsylvania.
WHAT IS THE BEST SIIEEP?
Mr. Peters has tested th, ‘H; - mish !
Merino, French Ttferin >, Southdown,
Oxfordshiro-down, Leicester, A iatic
Broad-tail or Tunisian, Improved;
Kentucky, Cotswold and native;
sheep. i
Of these, tho Spanish Merino nnd !
natives proved most profitable, the,
other pure breeds proving unhealthy \
with him. He has tested the crosses
between the South-down and Cots- 1
wold, South-Down and native, Cots
wold and native, and Spanish Merino!
and native.
The; crosses between tho Spanish;
Merino and native, and the ColswGJ
and native have proved most profita
ble. Of these two crosses he, in coni- j
mou with nearly every oilier Georgia !
correspondent, gives tho decided;
preference to the cross of the Spanish- j
isb Merino and native.
BUCKS.
One buck in vigorous condition will
serve fifty ewes, if allowed to run with i
them—more, if kept up and tho ewes j
turned out as soon as they have boon j
served once. To avoid unnatural ex- 1
ciiemeut and undue worry by running 1
from owe to ewe, and by fightim , each !
buck should if possible, be placed in |
separate enclosure, with the owe- in- j
tended for him. If an exponc-i . buck
is used, and it is desired that he shall;
servo a large number of eaves, he may -
be kept in a pen into which fifteen or:
twenty ewes may bo turned at a tin:,.;
Tho brisket of the buck may bo rub
bed with Venetian red and -ardor!
common lampblack lard. Have Re
active shepherd constantly pre-scut,;
who, with as little excitement as pos-!
siblo, will remove tho ewes as the buck
marks them with tho coloring matU ,
on his brisket.
By this means a buck may servo a
hundred ewes with as littlo injury to
himself, and with as much certainty
as to results, as he will fifty when al
lowed to run with a flock.
Bucks should be fed on oats during
the period of their service, under any
circumstances.
Yearling should not be allowed to
serve more than thirty owes. At two
years old they may be admitted to full
service.
THE SHEEP IN SUMMER.
Whether sheep-raising be made a
factor of mixed husbandry, or a spe
cialty, tile herdsman should remom
qer that for sheep ‘change is more im
portant than range.’ In tho exten
sive sheep-walks of extreme or
tho wire-grass region of South Geor
gia, the Hooks find the necessary
change by extending their walk.
If they are kept within enclosures,
they .should have frequent change of
pasture, to secure health and the nec -
essary variety of food.
If a given number of sheep aro to
be grazed upon one hundred acres,
they will thrive better if this is divid
ed into two fields of fifty acres each,
and tho flock alternated monthly be
tween them, than if they are allowed
to run constantly on the whole area.
Besides having fresh shading ground

TEN MILLION ACRES GOING TO WASTE.
*■ There are nbont 10,000,000 acres of
practically unoccupied lauds in Geor
gia, thtuLmll of whiiih might bp prof

region in Southeastern and Southern
VHpaj N ttio Safan
jnah to flio Chatftiljoochce, is a natu
! nil pasture, on which a million of
sheep could bo raised with trifling ex
| penso, on the nativo wire-grass which
; grows up luxuriantly, affording excel
lent pasturage in summer, and a sub
j sistorice on the udermath (which rc
| mains green) in winter. The most
| valuable spontaneous grass, however,
|is the Bermuda, which is peculiarly
; adapted to tho purpose of sheep pos
| forage, forming an impenetrable sod
of exceedingly nutritious grass, equal
j to the bestblue-grass pastures of Ken
: lucky, from early spring until frost.
|lt will also supply winter pasturage
j where partially protected by pine
! trees, under which it remains green
i through the entire winter, and is rcl
iishedby all kinds of stock,
j A sod of Bermuda on lands nn
-5 profitable for cultivation, will support
, five sheep to the acre for nine months
j in the year.
There arc other natural grasses
j which afford good pasturage during
(ho summer months. So much f,r

Si m USAGE FOB THE W iXTKP..
From tho summer pasture they are !
turned upon the pea fields, from
i which tho corn has been gathered,
| care being taken to accustom them i
I gradually to the consumption of the I
; pea, to prevent injury by overfeeding.;
On these they will grow fat, and tie !
; either ready for the butcher, or for ;
; entrance into tho winter.
From the pea field they go to the !
; cotton field, which was sown in rye |
or oats in August or September, and ;
is now groan and succulent. These, \
with tho aid of the turnip crop, which
! was also sown in August or Septemr
I her, will furnish abundant green food j
j until the return of early spring vege- j
i tat-ion. If it in desired to reap a bar-1
vest from the grain fields, the tnr- !

A Wedding Postponed.
| SIX HUNDRED INVITATIONS AND A SPECIAL |
TRAIN OF PALACE CARS.
Baltimore, November 19. A :
! YVii.diington letter to the Sun has tho j
I following:
Very much iterost has been excited
! here by a startling revelation con- j
j corning a young real estate operator,
! connected with one of the most ro
i spcctablo and opulent families in the
- city. The young gentleman, who, it
I was thought, had been remarkably
| successful in business, and was rep
j uted to be amassing a large fortune,
was eiigagbct to be married to the
daughter of One of tho richest gen
tlemen of Loudoun connty, Virginia,
amt tho wedding day was fixed for
yesterday. It is stated also that
there were GOO invitations issued, and
a special train of palace ears was
engaged for tho guests from this city.
A fow days since, however, it was dis-1
eoverded that the constat display and i
the lavish expenditures for which tho j
young gentleman had become noted
were based upon money oljtained by
tho forgery of the namo of his expect
ed father-in-law. The amounts ob
tained are variously estimated from
$(i,000 to $30,000. The marriage
has been announced as “off.” The
father of the young man has made
conveyances of read estate to secure
tlm payment of the forged paper, and
no criminal prosecution will grow out
of tho transa ctiou.
A rat which was caught and severe-1
ly bitten bv a cat the other day in
Detroit, squealed so piteously that
two of its companions came out of a
I Hole in tho wall and attacked the j
common enemy with great savageness.
The cat, however, stood her ground,
and with one on her captive, made
such a desperate fight that she soon j
drove the assaulting party back to
their hole wounded and in confu
sion. She thou calmly finished her
meal

The Tombs contains ono
most peculiar characters in this cityP
I refer to Flora Foster, tho matron of
tho female department. She has held
this position for a third of a century,
and stilt retains it, though now much
wearied by long service and increas
ing years. Mrs. Foster is ft business
woman and has little to say to visi
tors. Sho conies oarly amt goes
IJpipe at dark, and has spent the best
part of lmv life in prison. Frequent
ly she has been called on by reporters I
j who desired to “write her up,” but j
; she has always declined. Sho is very |
! kind to prisoners, but is very decided ;
I and allows no ill words or ill con-!
j duet. Ilntcring this department I
| saw a female, form prostrate at full
length, and the face covered by part
of her dress. It was simply a case of
intoxication, such as one sees here
constantly. There aro about forty
women in this department, but they
have a comfortable hall, nnd are treat
ed well. Flora Foster has a list of
these unfortunate women for thirty
years. What a history of woman’s
life would it present ? The Tombs
kitchen employs thirty persons, and
the food is of a plain quality, two!
meals a day being served. If the j
prisoners desire better fare and have |
the moans of purchasing it, they can j
i bo served from a neighboring rofrec- ]
: tory at a cost of about sl2 per week.
.Stokes was fed in this way, find so !
: was Tweed, but there are few who can I
allbrd such luxury, and they must :
| take up with prison fare, w hich is j
; generally all that they deserve. — i

Tin; Duration of life.- In ancient ■
; Rome, during the period between
; 200 and 300 A. I)., the du
: ration of life among the uper classes ’
; was thirty years. In tho present
; century, among the same classes of
people, it amounts to fifty years. In ;
the sixteenth century the mean du- j
ration of life in Geneva was 21.21
j years; between 1833 and 18-41 it was
48 (58 years, and at the present time
as many people live to seventy years ’
of age as three hundred years ago I
lived to the ago of forty-throe. In
the year 1(59 3 the British Govern-1
men t borrowed money, the amount I
borrowed to be paid in annuities, ou !
the basis of tho mean duration of life I
at that time. The State Treasury,
made thereby a good bargain, and !
all parties to the bargain were satis
fied. Ninety-sven years later Pitt j
establishe 1 another tontiuo or annui- ■
ty company,- based on the presump
tion that the mortality would remain
tho same us a hundred years before. I
But in this instance it transpired that I
tho Government had made a bad!
bargain, since, while in the first ton-!
tine 10,000 persons of each sex died j
under the age of twenty-eight, a hun- ;
dred years later only 5,772 males and
G, 416 female died under this age. |
From this fact it appears that life,!
under certain favorable influences,;
has gained in many, and, probably,!
in all its form and manifestations, j
both in vigor and duration.
Married Through the Window. —A ]
clergyman recently waited for a cou
ple in his parlor one evening, and, as
they did not keep their engagement,
ho went to bed. Just about half past
cloven o'clock tho door bell rang vi
olently. He put a cap and a wrap
per on, and, in a state of general un
dress, opened tho second-story win
dow and looked out. There stood
tardy candidates for matrimony'.
“Well, it’s too late now,” said tho
clergyman, “and it’s too cold.”
“Yes,” called up the man, but wo
missed the train and I sail to-mor
row;”
“Well, then, go to some other min
ister.” answered the irate parson.
“We can’t now,” both shouted up
from the garden walk, “it’s too late.”
“Well, I can’t marry you now,” he
said “the servant has taken the front
door key and has gone to sleep.
“Well, then, marry us out of tho
window,” came up from below.
And so the minister took the book
in hand and called out the directions
from the second-story casement, and
the parties complied with the several
orders, and finally left the fee in an
envelope under the front door, and
went out of the garden gate man and
wife.
No Time to Head.— Wo have often
encountered many who profess to be
lieve they have no time to read. Now
|we think of it, there have always
been men of such characters, the
points of which aro easily summed
up.
Nino times out of ten, they are men
who have not found time to confer
any substantial advantage cither up
on their families or themselves.
They frequently spend whole days
in gossiping, tippling and swapping
horses, but they have ‘no time to
read.’
They sometimes lose a day in ask
ing advice of their neighbors; some
times a day in picking up the news,
tho prices current, and the exchange,
but those men never ‘havo timo to
read.’
Thoy have time to hunt, to fish, to
fiddle, to drink, to—-do nothing, but
‘no time to road.’
Such men generally 1 avo uneduca
ted children, unimproved farms, and
unhappy firesides. They have no en
ergy, no spirit of impri ivement, no
love of knowledge; they .ive unknow
ing and unknown. aid often die uu

The country people would flock from j

and then go home disappointed be

good fun to study tho country peo
ple,” continued tho great showman,
laughing. “We nre'going to sell ev
ery hide, hoof and feather. The
boys think they aro going to loose
money ou them, and I shouldn’t won

of the animals and use them in an-1

said in my lecture on “Money-Mak

this if we run throe or four shows;
besides, the people want something
new. The novelty is worn of the
Hippodrome, circuses don’t pay, and
so I say sell out every' dollars worth

Bonnet of all Bonnets.— An extra
ordinary bonnet was exhibited in one I
of tho fashionable millinery establish- j
ments in Boston, several days ago. j
It was made of dark green velvet and I
ecru silk—two of the stylish colors for I
the coming season. Ou tho back of!
the bonnet, resting partly on the!
crown and partly on the brim, was an |
elaborate wreath of leaves. Within
this circlet, whicji answered for a.
nest, were enclosed six birds of the
size of sparrows. Thoy were mount
ed on wires so as to move easily with
tho motion of tho wearer, or to swing
lightly in the breath of tho breeze.
Ten wings formed the trimming on
one side of the bonnet, and a larger
wing, was intermingled with the ban
deau of velvet and silk, and an addi
tional wing. A yard and a half of
velvet and half the quantity of silk
was required for the completion of
this monstrosity of head gear. Twelve
bird’s wings, six whole birds, masses
of flowers, leaves and wreaths, velvet
and silk, in unlimited quantity, en
tered into tho composition of this
“lovo of a bonuot.”

Benjamin Franklin’s Thrift.— The
Rev. Dr. Hawks, of New York, as his
torian of the Protestant Episcopal
Church in America, has discovered
some documents which ought to be
of interest in Philadelphia about the
one hundredth anniversary of Ameri
can Independence. The documents
referred to are the private diaries of
Bishop White of Pennsylvania, who
relates in one place a conversation
that ho overheard between two gen
tlemen at a tavern in a remote coun
try parish. The speakers were a
father and son, one of whom had
been a Tory during the revolutiona
ry war and the other a Patriot. Each
had deeded all his property to the
other, and, as the war was now clos
ed, tho son, who had been the Tory,
wished to have his share back. The
father, who seemed to have been a
thrifty soul, refused to part with any
thing in his possession. Tho next
day tho bishop asked tho landlord
who were tho occupants of the room
from which the conversation had
proceeded, and was informed that
they were Benjamin Franklin and his
son.

The President’s Financial Difficul
ties.- A rumor is current th"t the
family of Grant is in financial difficul
ties. The sacrifice of the St. Louis
stock, the advertising of Mrs. Grant’s
New Jersey land for taxes, the Ad
ams Express Company loan, and the
late hasty visit to Now York, are
mentioned as incidents resulting
from the financial stringency in the
Presidential household. It appears
that President Grant is indebted to
Adams Express Company to the
amount of $20,000. Like the accep
tance of large gifts of money from
persons afterward appointed to lucra
tive offices, this is a discreditable
transaction. ,It may not be corrupt,
but it is improper for the President
of the United States to bo under
heavy pecuniary obligations to a
wealthy monopoly that last year re
ceived his signature to legisla
tion valuable to it and oppress
ive to tho people. iUuakinijton Sun
