--A. B. Your package of Essays is sent to T. C. R. of P., as directed,
and we have written you in full in it. The sheep-articles shall be
condensed as you suggest, if we can possibly find room, and papers
in any event sent to the gentlemen whose names are given. Good
South-Downs, or Merinos, can be had from $10 to $20 each. It is not
worth while to transport lower-priced animals such a distance. For
Rambouillets, $30 to $50 each. See Mr. Collins' letter, Sept. No., page
166.

Minor, in our next.
