It is singular that such a body of evidence should be brought together on tlm tu:u -itn'mw nf tln nnnlipn- of Law tobe held for Edgecombe county, jampton Courier states, that a at the Court-house in 'I arborougli, on theicow, in that lOWIl. owned bv r tion of a moderate quantity ofdrought which has prevailed in salt to every description of.some portions of the Western growing crop, from grass tojStates, is still complained of in limber trees, and to almost ev-'the Lexington (Ky.) Reporter of cry domestic animal, from the; the 22d instant. Tn a number horse to the honey-bee, and yctiof the counties about Lexington that salt should be so little in the crops of corn would fall use. We have not a doubt short from one third to ono ourselves that it may be of real half, and it was believed that the use to live stock; because wclusual supplies of live stock sent have seen it very generally on the continent. Mr. 21VC11 Johnson says, "I have given my own gig horse an ounce of salt every night in his corn, for the last five years; and though he has, during that period, wor ked very hard, he has continu ed in the best health, never hav ing had a dose of physic in his life." To be able to dispense with physic, either in the econ omy of men or cattle, is a grand object; and we certainly think the occasional, or perhaps the constant use of salt in the food of domestic animals, and espe cially in that of the horse, as being in a more highly artifi cial state than the others, a de sirable object. N. E. Farmer. Tar for Sheep. A gentle man who keeps a large flock or sheep assures us, that during the season of grazing he gives his sheep tar, at the rate of a gill a day for every twenty sheep. He puts the tar in troughs, sprinkles a little fine salt over it, and the sheep con sume it eagerly. This pre serves them from worms in the head, promotes their general growth, and is supposed to be a specific against rot. .
