This is all frJse except that Mr.JeweUgare

yars old 500.
The shecp I raised mysclf, sold hini when
ilainb to Mr. Loyal C. Kemelce ofthistown
tor 15 dullars. and Mr. Keinclcekcpthim tn o
earsand sold him to Jonathan Wilson of this
town for 39 dollars, of whom Mr. Jewctt pur
'lia3ed him, after Mr. AVilson had kept him
abont a vcar.
Second, lleisreprescntcd to be a Paular
buck. How hc caine to be wortliy of that
miiic, i am unable to account: excent in
thcse deencrate times, when aman wishesto
makea little more of his sheep than tliey will
icaiivbcar, he lias a portraitUrawn.andlorth
nitli it is scnt to the Editor of anasricultural
paper, with the caption a Paular liucl; "brtd

The same diplay was made wlien Mr. Jcw
m owced the celcbrated Don I'edro. Hc too
fas Paular. So of course, the tivo sheep
uiust be very ucarofktn. But whatare the
facts in tfce case ? The sheep arc about as
much alike as a ncgro aud a white nian, for
they are bothof Adam's race, and these two
''ticks are both sheep.
The fact in the case is that neither of the
bucks have any pcculiar claim to this title, as
vcan with the greatest ease be showu; but it
will be sufiicient for my present purpose to

He was raised fromanewepurchasedon Long
Island by Mr. Becdle, for JudgeRich of this
'onri. She might or might not hare had
tome Paular blood in lier, aud sired by a buck
which I purchased of the Hon. Wm. Jarfis
of Weathersfield this State; he was purchas
ed when a l.imb eight years ago.
It is well known that Mr. Jarvisimported5
kinds of merino sheep some 25 or 30 years
since, and that one or these kinds was Paular.
Mr. Jarvis has not kept the diflerent varieties
separate and distinct, but mixed them toceth-
er, and bred his full blood merinos in th"i3
style. After breeding many yearsin tliis mix
d manner, I purchasea the sire of Jewett's
Fortune. Luckily, itseems my buck turncd
out to be pure Paular, or else his progeny
uetter than he. (Juery! Mr. Kandall as
serts that " a Paular without his ruflle would
be like a tchilc Berkshire nobody would give
credit to his pedigrce." By the ruffle is meant
a huge dewlap, extendins from the jaw to the
brisket. The sire of Fortune was icithout his
rume. So much for thc titlo Paular in Mr,
Jewett's Fortune.

Relative to thc cdchraltd Don Pedro. I
doubt whethcras much couldbe said fjvora
ble to his claim.
Before laking tip thc third point that I have
particularly in view, I wish to notice some
othcr statements, made by Mr. Randall in his
communication in the Cujtivator, and one is
relative to the eight of fleccc taken from
ycar to ycar from the buck Fortune. As
stated by Mr. Kandall it is as follows :
Don Pedro. Fortune.
lst year, Clbs. 7oz. 7lbs. 9oz.
!d year, Dlbs. -Soz. 12lbs.
3d ycar, l2Ibs. 13Ibs. 4oz.
1th ycar, 14lbs.
5th ycar, 131bs.
1 nould atk ivhy the fourtb yearof r ortunc
is a blank. Mr. Jewett sheared him the -1th
year, from whom probably Mr. Kandall gets
his mformation. Has tliere not becn time
enougli for.Mr. Jewctt to inform Alr. Jianuall.'
Or did he forgct it when he gave the wcight
of Pcdro's llecce ? Or is there another reason
more probablc still and tim is the increase
ruus the wronc way to be published say
miuus some 3 pounds and over. If there had
been au increase as there ought to have been
at this age we should not have foiiud a blauk
for the fonrth clip. It may be said that he
was sheared or 3 weekssooner than last year.
Very wcll, how much must be allowcd for
that .' A half pound or evcn a pound and then
how docs it stand when added to ten pounds?
gam it may bc said he was sheared soou af
ter w ashing. Very well, just let us know how
he was washeu, whethcr in tlie nver or m
washtub, a modem style of washinc.
Alr. itandall wntes "Ihat Mr. Jewctt states
that the full blood yearlings of Forluucs get
taking buck weathers and ewcs togclhcr will i
avcr.ige bclwecn five and six pounds ofwash-1
edwool." I aak how Mr. Jewett kncw this. '
for he has not sheared any of hisownraising, .
sired bv Fortune. To fiud the tnie criieri-
on by which to judge, we must refer to
the geiitlemeu who have sheared a flock sired
byl-ortunc. 1 would hke to hear their tes-
iimony. ltut t pass to tlic thml poiut. Alr.
Kandall states in writing to the Editor of the
"Ceutral Ncw-York Farnicr" "Ihadonthe

This w as thc natural rcsolution of an af

She hastily turncd from the oflicer in in

tone cxclaimed, ' Christinc is a Polish wife

'Ay,' rejoined Wrclschoff, 'butChristineis
a Polish mother.'
Christiiie hcsitated a moment as she con
templated the power of the ruthless soldier
aud its probablc cffccts, but as instantly as
Eumed her formcr attitude of resignation,
and rejoined, 'My trust is in hcarcn to

A soldier at this momcnt announced that
the prisoncrs had cscapcd ; thc sentinels had
fallen asleep upon the watch, and Rolofski
and his son had climbed to the grated window,
from wb.ch tbey leaped into the open lield,
had succecdedin effccting their

'My praver is hcard I havenot imnlnrp.l
