work done bysaclt. I was in the ficld and al eye witness of the difference in distress of the two animals; 4Ih, and last. the mulc can take harder pull and continue II longer, with less injury-they arc so constituted, that their siDews can't be started from their .fasinings or their temper shaken; they will stand more abuse, more weather, hot or cold, wet or dry; they can be.eowded together in their feeding places, like hogs, all eat and no damage done Their longevity Is as l to ,, and their freedom from disease is IS to %, when compared with the horse. then sum up this part of my subject thus: Take , year old mule of fair size--lreat il reasonably well, work 1t Ill 1t IS unfit for labef--it will do IS much work, and will kill or wear out two common horses. It will cost S30. if you raise it, Ss0 Il you bny--tho two horses will cost $ l00 If you raise them, or Sl2O fl yon buy-or in that poriion--30-l20 or S0-l20. l now predict that the rearing of mules for the next ] or 6 years, will be the most profitable branch of stock growing, sheen excepted. Tennessee and Kentucky have almost abandoned mule growing-lhcre has not one mule passed South this season where 20 passed 3 years since. They arc not in this State 10 send of. The South will be compelled to raise their mules or do without, unless Tennessee and Kentucky change thef course. C. L. COCkRILL.
