BAGGAGE TRAIN.

ThoXfi-wYork Tribune, of Aup HOOL uaun""' -" "i 8, has an article on' wool growing, of interest to all Agriculturists, and we think particularly so to the Fanners of Indiana. From this article we make the following extracts, for the information of our Fanner readers. . ' , The crowth and diflusion of Sheep husbandry in the United, Stales are just objects of al.onal sokeitude ' Though preeminently an Agncultaral people we do not and probably never did grow the Wool with winch we are clothed. Though producers of Meat in excess of our own consumption, we are not adequately supplied with Mutton, which is among the best ot meats. t)ur farmers live mainly on Fork, which is the grossest, least cleanlv, least healthy of meats, and which must mainly be cured and preserved by salting, whereas Mutton is usually cheaper, more palatable, less conducive to diseaseand may be had fresh through twothirds of the year. Sheep husbandry, but for the ravages of vagrant dogs, that ought to be very dead, might be profitably prosecuted in nearly every State of the Union. This is a pursuit requiring rather skill and watchfulness than the severest toil, which yields quick and cenerous returns, and which does not exhaust but tends to improve the soil. The relative cheapness with which Wool may be transported, the ease and safety with which it may bo kept on hand, are great recommendations. Of One Thousand bushels of Indian Corn grown in Iowa and shipped Eastward for a market, at least six hundred will have been consumed in freights and charges by the time the gram reaches this (Jity, and anotner mmmcu . " y maaindcr is laid down in English Manchester or Birmingham, leaving but three hundred to be returned to IowSin Waves or Fabrics; while One Thousand pounds of Wool mav be transported from Iowa to the British manufacturing districts for a twentieth part of its value. In other words : a Western farmer who grows Grain for market must sell it for less than half its average price throughout the civilized world; whereas, if he grows Wool, he can be sure of a cash market at his own door only five to ten per cent, lower than its price in the very highest markets. And, should the price be low one year and the producer desire to hold over, AVool may be kept securely for less than one per cent per annum of its value, and will lose nothing by keeping whereas grain is not only more bulky and more exposed to depredations from vermin, but deteriorates in quality simply from being kept on hand. As our settlements shall extend further and further Westward, therelbre.away from the seaboard andfrom cheaptransportation, the inducements to Sheep husbandry must be constantly increasing. We have gathered into this exhibit such facts as we thought calculated to elucidate the present condition and prospects of the Wool market. They show that I. American Wool has been remarkably steady in price throughout the last eight years we think more so than anv other American staple. While Wheat, Flour, Indian Corn, Butter, Cheese, and most other farm products, have fluctuated violently from time to time, the variations in the price of Wool have hardly exceeded twenty-five per cent. II. Though a groat Commercial Revulsion has just swept over the whole civilized world, prostrating thousands of our merchants and manufacturers, and reducing the prices of many Agricultural staples more than fifty per cent., American Wool is not this day twenty per cent, cheaper than it was a year ago, and whereas it was then falling it is now rising, or bidding fair to increase in value. At the worst, the chances are in favor of prices being higher before they shall be lower. " III.' The importation of Foreign WTool, instead of increasing, has fallen off since imported coarse Wool was made free of duty. Of course, this is not because it is free, but because commercial embarrassments, the stoppage of mills, a slack demand, and the fall in prices, have discouraged importations. - . IV. The present prices of American Wool are not materially lower than were those of this time in 1854 and in 1855, when all Wool imported, except in the shape of certain manufactures, was subject to thirty per cent. duty. V. It is but ten to fiften per cent, lower than the average prices of the last seven years, which were notoriously years of average high prices for Agricultural staples. - ' VI. Wool is this day nearer the prices of one year ao than most other Agricultural products. In other words, though a tun of Silver or Gold would buy more Wool to-day than it would have done before "the Panic," yet a thonsand tuns of Wool will buy more Wheat, Eye, Indian Corn, Beef, Pork, Cheese, Butter, and Lard," taking equal values of each, than they would have done one year ago, or (we think) at any time within the last seven years. Wool, then, has only shared nay, has not shared in the general depression of prices caused by the great revulsion absurdly termed "the Fanic." i Such are the material facts presented by a survey of the Wool prices of the last seven years. To us, they seem full of encouragement for the American Wool-grower, giving assurance that his prices in the future will at least, as compared with those of other farm products be fully equal to those of the past. ' - HORSE TAMING IN ENGLAND. V TO THE EDITOR OF THE LOXDOS TIMES. , .' Having been requested in the accompanying letter to give my opinion in regard to the use of "blinkers" on horses, through the medium of your valued paper, for

the benefit of the cabmen of London, and believing it to be a subject in which the general public are interested, I take great pleasure in stating that all my experience with and observation of horses proves clearly to me that blinkers should not be used, and that the sight of the horse, for many reasons, should not be interfered with in any way. Horses are only fearful of objects which they do not understand or are not familiar with, and the eye is one of the pricipal mediums by which this understanding and the familiarity are brought about. The horse, on account of his very amiable nature, can be made in the course of time to bear almost anythin in any shape, but there is a quicker process of reacfiing his intelligence than that of wearing it into him through his skin and bones; and he, however wild or nervous, can be taught in a very short time to nn derstand and not to fear any object, howe ver frightful in appearance. Horses can be broken in less time and 'better without blinkers; but horses that have always worn them will notice the sudden change, and must be treated carefully the first drive. After that they will drive better without the blinkers than with. I have proved by my own experiments that a horse broken without blinkers can be driven past any omnibus, cab or carriage, on a parallel line as close as it is possible for him to go, without ever wavering or showing any disposition to dodge. I have not, in the last eight or' ten years constantly handling horses both wild and nervous, ever put blinkers on them, and in no case have I ever had one that was afraid of the car riage he drew behind him or of those he passed in the streets. The horse's eye is the life and beauty of the animal as well as the index of his emotions. It tells the driver, in the most impressive characters, what the horse's feelings are. By it he can tell the first approach of fear in time to meet any difficulty; he can tell if he is happy or sad, hungry or weary. The horse, too, when permitted to see, uses his eyes with great judgment. He can measure distances with his eyes better than we can, and, if allowed free use of them, would often save himself by the quickness of his sight from collisions when the driver would fail to do so by a timely pull of the reins. It would also save many accidents to pedestrians in the streets, as no horse will run on to any person that he can sec. Blinkers are rapidly going out of use in the United Stales, and some of my early pupils here have successfully dispensed with them. I have yet to find the man who having once left them off could ever be persuaded to put them on again. They are unnecessary and an injurious incumbrance to the horse, and I feel confident, if the cabmen of London will leave them off one year, that blinkers on cabliorses will never be seen again in the streets, aud will only be a thing to be read of as one of the follies happily reformed in the nineteenth century. I am, sir, your obedient servant, J. S. Rabey. Tattersall'8, July 23, 1858.

ORIGIN OF THE STOCKING FRAME. In the Stocking Weaver's Hall, London, there is a portrait of a man in the act of pointing to a stocking frame, and addressing a woman who is knitting with needles. The picture bears the following inscription : " In the year 1559, the ingenious William Lee, A.M., of St John's College, Cambridge, devised this profitable art for making stockings." ' , . A cotemporary gives an interesting elucidation of this inscription. It appears that when the art of knittin stockings was yet a new thing in England, the Rev. Mr. Lee fell in love with a young woman, to whom he paid his addresses; and it so happened that whenever Mr. Lee came to see her she was knitting a stocking, and so intent was she upon her occupation that she gave little heed to the sugary talk of her lover. His desire for a wife soon changed into a malevolent determination to spoil her knitting forever, by invent-in-r a machine that would supersede stocking-making byhand. He visited the lady as sedulously as ever, but his purpose was to learn the mystery of knitting, w 1,0 n.Jcrlih rnntrivn to do similar work with iron

finders, ife observed that his mistress made the web loop by loop, but the round shape she gave the stocking from the four needles greatly embarrassed him. Pondering this great mystery on one of his visits, he found her knitting the heel of a stocking, and using only two needles one holding the loop, while the other formed a new series. The thought struck him that he could make a flat web, and round it by joining the selvages. After three years' hard study, Mr. Lee was enabled to make a course upon the frame, but the formation of the heel and feet embarrassed him greatly. Perseverance, however, conquered this difficulty at last, and his macliine was finished. The fair knitter, whose shyness or coquetry resulted so strangely, enHoa vnrrl tn re-a waken Mr. Lee's uassion for herself, but in vain. He had become so thoroughly engrossed by his invention that he had no sensibilities for anything else. He abandoned his curacy, shut his heart against affections, and wove stockings in his head from morning till night . The result was, that though he succeeded to the utmost in his invention, he died in Paris, in concealment, grief, and poverty, lhe same hall contains a portrait of Sir Richard Arkwriglit, whose stocking frame, considerably modified, is the one now generally in use. Wars. The imDortation of rags for the purpose of papermaking is a great deal more extensive than most persons would imagine. During the year 1857 we imported 44,582,080 lbs., valued at $1,448,125, and making 69,461 bales ; 35,391 bales were from Italy, and more than one-third are entirely linen, the rest being a mixture of linen and cotton. About 2,000 bales were also important from the free cities ot uamDurg and Bremen. France prohibits the exportation of rags, and so does Rome ;. the few which we get trom Ancona (a ltotnan province; Demg uy specuu piuussion on payment of large fees. Prussia and Germany generally impose so mgti an exporo amy on rags as uj stop the trade entirely. The exports from Alexandria and Smyrna are chiefly collected in Asia Minor by agents having license from the government, and the domestic demand must be supplied before any can be exported. It is the same with Trieste, where only the surplus is allowed to come away. The Trieste rags arc collected all over Hungary. We are informed that New York and Boston receive the largest quantity, and the place that ships the most is Leghorn in Italy. Bribery-money Sued For. We learn from the correspondent of the Baltimore Sun that John AV. Walcott, who was the hero of the Tariff Corruption Committee of the late session has been sued by the creditors of Lawrence Stone & Co., for the recovery of the a 74.000 which he recieved from that firm for the purpose of influencing the passage of the tarilf of 1857, and winch, as is well ascertained, ne Kepi in ins pocket, probably by an understanding with bam Lawrence, who now shelters himself abroad from a prosecution at home. The trial may elicit some further facts in regard to Lawrence's financiering. SCRAPS FROM HARPER'S DRAWER. "Looking over some old letters recently, I discov ered the following, which I once begged as a curiosity from the srcntleman to whom it was sent Having seen it taken from the post-office, I can vouch for its correctness, uerbatim et literatim, according to the original document It evidently refers to a trade or 'dicker partially completed, and explains itsett: ......

" 'Mr. AV P N if you wont my cow you cen have hir for 25 dolars paablo three month alter date she gives 2 galous a day and a gaining IxEORG v r This story from a AVestern wag is a genuine outwester : " "In recently making the trip in a stage-coach over the rugged range of hills called the 'Baroboo Bluffs,' between the towns of Lodi and Baraboo, in AVisconsin, the coachful of squeezed and jolted passengers found some relief from the tediousness of the journey in the oricinal remarks which, from time to time, fell from the lips of an elderly woman who was one of the company. "She persisted in expressing great contempt for the other sex, and for married life generally, and intimated that such had always been her opinion ; and as it had nreviouslv leaked out from her conversation that she had been married and had raised a large family of children. I ventured to ask her how it happened, that, with the feelines of contempt she had from the first felt for the men, she ever could have married one of them : "'AVa'al,' said she, 'young man, I'll tell you jest how 'twas. When I was a little gal I lived in a family where there was an old maid, who, m gomr up stairs to bed. had to rro through an entry way where there was a rjile of notatoes in one corner, and she used to make me go and cover 'em up with a blanket before she went by 'em, for fear they'd see her, 'cause they had eves.

Many a elorious speculation has failed for the same cood reason that the old Texas Ranger gave when he was asked why he didn't buy land when it was dog cheap. A correspondent tells the story : " 'AVcll. I did come nich onto taking eisht thousand acres oncst,' said old Joe, mournfully. You see, two of the boys came in one day from an Indian hunt, without any shoes, and offered me their titles to the two leagues just below here for a pair of boots.' " 'For a pair of boots !' I cried out. . " 'Yes, for a pair of boots for each league.' " 'But why, on earth, didn't you take it ? They'd be worth a hundred thousand dollars to-day. AV hy didn't you give them the boots ?' . . "Jest 'cause I didn't have the boots to give,' said old Joe, as he took another chew of tobocco, quite as contented as if he owned two leagues of land." JASPEIl COUNTY EAND.
