The portraits of the several breeds of sheep were sub mitted to a number of competent judges, and pronounced faithful representations. In reference to that of the Span ish Merino, it, with one other, was forwarded to the Hon. Wm. Jarvis, of Vermont, who pronounced it a fair like ness of a Merino in high order, and with a long fleece. It will be apparent to every one, that an American Merino portrait would be inappropriate in treating of Spanish Merinos. All the cuts were drawn from life, and mostly by the celebrated animal painter, Harvey, of London.
