While matters were iu this disagreeable condition, Mr. Ladd said that it occurred to him lhat he was not carrying out his peace principles very faithfully in bin dealing, with neighbor 1' ! Bo he resolved on a different line of action ; and, going to the fence of a field in which he saw P at work, he called to him. "What do you want, Squire I" was the blufl answer. - "I want to talk to you about those sheep," replied Ladd. ' I don't wan t to hear an j thing more about ihe sheep," was P- 's rejoinder. "You may shoot them and be hanged, if you want to; I ain't a going to do any thing with them. ' "No " said Ladd, "I am not going to shoot thtiu. nor hurt them; but. I want , you to let me lake your heep into my ' pasture and keep them for you." "Oh, yes," replied P , "lhat would be a nice plan to get rid of my sheep," "Neighbor," said, lib "if one of your sheep is lost in my pun lure I will pay its full vaU ue." Py this time P had become suffici ently interested in the matter under die-cu-eioii to cease fiom his hoeing and turn towards Mr. Ladd. "Are you in earnest 1" said be.
