GOLDEN FLEECE OF THE SHEEP. Col. Jas. H. Rice's Visit to an Abbevil:e Farmer who Raises Sheep Success faUy-Conclusive Proof of the Profit of the Indcstry. LFrom the Press and Banner.] you are a armer and sto.h f'"mer. J .ill not call you a husbandman, be cause you detest puns, and this equivo cal word may make a bachelor tremble, But yoa are certainly deeply interested In agriculture, as your paper has long shown, and I remember a year ago ag riculture took a large interest in you and your paper. I spent the afternoon of April 15th with our friend, Eldred S. Addison, walking and riding over his magnifi cent farm. It is three miles from Nine ty-Six, in Edgefield County, liying on Beaver Dam and Ninety-Six creeks, in the heart of the famous Cambridge lands-the most fertile uplands in the State. The plantation cor tains 800 acres, is beautiful for situation, abund antly watered, thoroughly fenced with wire and plank and shows everywhere the hand of a master. I have no time for detail, and besides, the owner is a modest man who stays at home and successfully handles and drives his own business. I am intent to tell you and your readers about his sheep and inci dentally other things. Mr. Addison carried 130 sheer through the winter. March 24th, he sold to an Augusta butcher G wether; and 14 lambs, averaging 60 pounds, foi 6 cents gross. He has now 77 lambE very many of which will weigh Sf pounds and probably none as low as 50 They are all ready for the table and I really believe would compare favorably with an equal number from any fari in the Union. They would create a furore in Fulton market, and temp: the most fastid;ious palate in any land, He will keep.some of the finest for hi$ own use-table and flock. Will sell many for fancy prices to men who de sire to improve their flocks, and the balance go to the butcher. But for thi< he could marked every lamb to-day foi $3 per head for the table. I am facing the important question, does sheep faraiiug pay here in out country? Mr. Addison thinks it does, and presents then proof. Some year. ago he bought this place badly run down from cotton culture and unwise tillage and grazing. He has at leasl doubled its value, and although he has - reputation for fine horses, keeps a large herd of cattle and many hogs, and has sold pure red oats throughout the State, he believes the prime factor it this development is tho sheep. First his present flock are penned nightly, and with them alone he an nually makes very rich acres of land moving his pens about every ten days The money value of this land cannol be estimated. Every farmer knowt what a cow pen means, and sheep drop pings are richer than cows. It mean heavy crops of barley, which can only be made to perfection on penned land - oats, rye, clover, and turnips, and it good for a life time, if properly graded and tilled. His sheep are large and heavy wooled as you can judge from the crosset named. He began with grade Merinot and Cotswoid ewes, breeding them t< the best Broad Tailed rams he coulc buy in the country. They combing size, wool and mutton flavor to perfec tion. His flock of old sheep will prob ably shear six pounds per head. They are large, very fat and having con stantly cleaned his pastures his woo will command the highest prices. Sheep give annually three returnt when properly managed-wool, mut ton, lands enriched. Thby are clos4 feeders, destroy noxious weeds and givE us the only chance to redeem- the bali red hills of our splendid country, gutted by a century of cotton culture, anc scalded by blazing suns on lands with out covering. We need sheep on ever3 farm. We covered thousands once anc now have pens, and these left to th< tender mercies of weather and dogs Not the darkey, for he does not lovi mutton-his affections are centered or the pig. It i vry remarkable that the onl3 65 bk on sheep husbandry in the South and particularly in South Carolina was written by Mr. Randall, a famou! sheep farmer from New York. Visit ing Gov. Alston, he was so impresset with the superiority of our soil. climat< and natural range for sheep that hi published a book which will be a reve lation to every reader. I can only say that he declares that a line fron Georgetown to Memphis is the diame ter of the finest sheep range in the world-America, Europe or Asia Read it. This industry is peculiar13 suited' to white people. From th< birth of the sheep to his death he need: such constant care as only a white mat can and will give. The lambling, th< watching in pasture, the careful tend ing and penning, the shearing, th< fine art of butcherin , and I shah never omit the cookin~ and eating o them, is emphatically privilege an< duty o' the white race. E.J is easil: first of meats for health or ,\sure ii a hot climate. Roasted, boiled, chop most savory and barbecued, Mr. Wil son, is a dish for the gods. But I an not writing a treatise on gastronomy though the contemplation even is mios delightful. I believe sheep have golden feet. I is so written and sung in old Englan< for a hundred years, and they hay aided largely to make her garment c green which catches every visitor' eye. I have, sir, written thus earnestl; because I beiieve sheep shouli be o1 every farm in our county, and I tak the liberty to append( to this article; statement of estimates showing profit on Mr. Addison's flock. I spent happ: and profitable years in its pursuit, an, if I can say anything to d:-aw our pec pie into this most pleasant and protits ble channel I shall rejoice. Mr. Addison runs ou many line: Hie does not put all his eggs in on basket, but he and I would be please to know that many of them in th shape of sheep were in the baskets every farmer.

New York Depot. 6c Canal St. The Tspe Setter. jAugusta Chronicle Senator Gjallinger's oration at the dedication of the Childs-Drexel Home for Aged Union Printers, at Colorado Sprtngs, on Thursday, was a striking and interesting address. Senator Gallinger talked about prin ters like one of the craft, and the fol lowing picture of the typo will be rec ognized by all who know him: "There must be in printers' ink an in spiration to generosity and even prodi gality, so few of the craft ever become rich. That fellow-feeling that makes all the world akin glows ever in the heart of the printer, opening his purse to the needy and his soul to the suffer ing. 1Uis couch is freely shared with a needy craftsman, his case is at the service of the wanderer, and his last ration is fairly divided with the one who knows not where to get his daily bread. Nor is his bounty or his charity circumscribed by guild lines. Who so hospitable everywhere as a printer? Who so quickly touched by the appeal of the afflicted? Thrift may not be one of his virtues, but niggardliness is not one o, his failings. His it is to share generously with others. He has no iso lated pleasures. His present is never burdened with the glooi:of tu-niorrow. "Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof," is the creed that too often scantily clothes and feeds him and his family. Yet the world is better for his coming. He has scattered smiles of gladness along its pathway. He has illumined its night. He has brushed away the tears from some faces even if they have stolen silently down his own. He has lifted here and there a cloud, that sunshire might penetrate a saddened heart. And when at even tide we measure his life's work, and set off against his failings his many kindly acts, we find that he has earned a home, even if he has not made one." The foregoing picture is as truthful as it is kind, and shows that the Sena tor is eith-r a close observer or has been there himself. The printer is a walking en.;yclopedia, for his case on a daily paper is a university whose cur riculum~ is unrestricted and whose teaching is liberal, though exact. His task carries him through such a vast variety of topics, and the subject mat ter of his "takes" changes so frequ ent ly, that his work is almost like reading an unabridged dictionary. But the amount of information a good printer acquires is marvelous. He has the names of leading politicians in all parts at his finger's end, and discusses te situation in India, the home-rule issue in Ireland, or the banishing of the Jews from Russia, with equal glibness. The printer's unpretentious bearing, and frequently careless dress, give no indication of the fund of information which he rcally possesses. He is usu ally of a roving disposition, and sets type on a metropolitan daily to-day and on a country weekly tomorrow. He rides in a Pullman whben he is flush, or on the bumper, or counts cross-ties, when he is strapped. He travels the country from Canada to Mexico and from Maine to California. He is a close observer, and, barring a tendency to use rather lurid language, he is a most en tertaining talker. The printer grows up at his case from a cub, and still holds to his "stick" when lie is gray-haired. He is devoted to his work, and rarely ever goes at anything else. Once a printer, always a printer. Happy Homes. Thousands of sad and desolate homnes have been made happy by use of "Rose Buds,"' which have proven an absolute cure for the following diseases and their distressing symptoms. Ulceration, Congestion and Falling of the Womb, Ovarian tumors, D)ropsy of the Womb, Suppressed Menstruation, Rupture at Childbirth, or any compli-nt origimat. ing in diseases of the reproductive or gans; whether from coutagious diseases, heredity, tight-lacing, overwork, ex cesses or miscarriages. One lady writes us that after suffering for ten years with Leuchorrhea or Whites, that one application entirely cured her, and fr thermore, she suflers no more pain during the menstrual period. It is a wonderfu!regulator. "Rose Buds" are a simple. harmless preparation, but wonderful in effect. The~ patient can apply it herself. No doctor's examfin ation necessary, to which all modest women, especially young unrmarried ladies seriously objet. From the first application you will feel like a new~ woman.

You sometimes see a woman whose old age is as exquisite as was the perfect bloom of her youth. You wonder how tha came about; you wonder how it is her life has been a long and happy one. here are some of the reasons: She knew how to forget disagree able things. She understood the art of enjoy ment. She kept her nerves well in hand, and inflicted them on no one. She believed in the goodness of her own daughters and in that of her neighbors. She cultivated a good digestion. She mastered the art of saying pleasant words. She did not expect too muuch from her friends. She made whatever work camne! to her congenial. not believe that all the world was wicked and unkind. She relieved the nmisera:?le, and sympathized with the sorrowful. She retained an even disposition, and made the best of everything. She did whatever came to her cheerfully and well. She never forgot that kind words and a smile cost nothing, but are priceless treasures to the discour aged. She did unto others as she would be done by, and now that old age has come to her, and there is a halo of white hair about her bead, she is loved and considered. This is the secret of a long life and a happy one.-Ladics' Bome Journal. FEAR OR RIDICULE. In an address to the scholars of the Mill IIill scbool, London, the headmaster, J. D. McClure. gave this good advice: "One of the many temptations you will meet will be the temptation to do wrong, or at least to refrain from doing right, ini orde'r that you may not be laughed at. To) feel oneself turned into ridicule, and become a laughing stock, is always hard to bear. It is adldition]ally so 'when this ridicule comes, as it often does, fr om .!hose who are older thant ourselves, who ought to helpj us in our life's journey. It is especially hard it it comeIs from people we wish to think well of us,ilto) whose society we long to enlter. "' 'Iore men hat Li laughter' ri-:en fr. m the rig;ht T'hani terror arnned with :ire.' ''Yet, believe meQ, all of you wvill have to face this trial, and to pass the ordeal; and what vs ill b)e the result? Shall laughter (perchance the laughter of fools) dIrive you from right-doing, or will you be able to endlure even that for Christ's sake? "Again, we all like to stand wiell with out- fellows. Now, sooner or later you will be called upon to make your choice between the ap pr-oval of some of your friends and the appi-oval of your IIeavenly F-ather. It is hard to be unpopular and to know yourself to beso0. ex pecially if we yearn for the love of those around us, as I hope n:'eny; of us do. Yet even for popularity von may pay to~o great a price. There atre sonme men whose disapproval is infinitely to be preferred to their app)roval. Perhaps you do not quite believe that. Yet it is ti-ue. and some day yon will find it out, even if y-ou do not already know it. When the time of trial comies will you be ready to meet it? Will you I>e ready to brave for the Lor-d's sake the cold looks, the disdain. the bitter recriminations. perhaps even of those you love?
