The process is to drive out say a hundred head of good average sheep, and find a farmer who is willimg to take them on his farm, attend to them and divide the wool and the increase every year. The profits to the man who puts out the sheep run up very fast by this arrangement. and the bar- gain also pays the farmer abundantly well for his trouble. Sheep that can be bought in this county for two and three dollars are worth in the West five and six. The margin of profit is very handsome. In this connection we may Mention a recent transaction with a gentleman in Faaguier county, Virginia, by which he has been furnished with a thousand sheep on shares for aterm of ten years. He is to graze them on his farm, and at the end of that time restore a like nomber to the seller. and in the meantime bate equally the wool and the increase of tbe ok.” ~ THE Wasnevane Fawiiy.—This distin. c<uished family, several of whose members have already made themselves famous m our Na- uonal gisIatore, will be welt represented in the 40th Congress.
