NOAH COMING TO HIS SENsEs-The following
extraordinary paragraph appeared yesterday in the
" Evening star" paper in which first appeared all
the abusive and virulent attacks ths +" Herald"
about immortality indeoency, black masay ISLANDERS,
and lies =
Jashe, again.-The Natis~aI Gazette contains q
long review Of this book, from the Christian Exa-
for the cause Of truth and religion, we would have
been better pleased to have it in any other pa
per The notices zoe haze seen in the Herald are
geateeI and fair to this religious reviewer who
strange as il may be, but in fact ridicules in Jasher
events which are distinctly marked and set Down
in the Bible.-EUening Star.
Well Ifthis does not beat the Book of Jasher,
what will 2 Here is our paper, endorsed by Noah,
as gentee, truth-telling, moral, fair, and honor
able paper; and far superior to the Christian
Examiner" which is well known to be one of the
most honest and ably conducted Journals in the
try. Thank God, however, the endorsement of
Noah is not on our note, or it would never be dis
counted in Wall street, or be received on deposite
in any bank. We beg all our Christian and respec-
table Hebrew friends to take notice that we have
not paid Noah any black mail for this endorsement.
1t is true that yesterday had a very respectable
lot of old clothes but we sold them all to Levet, Of
Nassau street. for S. and did not give Noah sim
gle stitch The endorsement cost nothing but
then, let it be remembered, that if we paid nothing
for it, we esteem il nothing
SYMPATHY.-Thurlow Weed says the blows in
hicted on Livingston, the mutneer, on Monday last
cut to the bone that the flesh flew 1t every stroke
of the cat and that his cries heard the dis
lance of half mile. There is not one word of
truth in this-it is a fabrication from beginning to
end Instead of screaming or suffering under the
punishment, Livingston took every blow Of the cat
though it dollar that he had earned, and ex-
pected vast deal of fun in speeding the money. The
groan during the operation. 1t is not strange,
however, that Thurow should synpathse with the
prisoner. If we are to credit the Argus, he has
fellow feeling for all unfortunate individuals who
have come in collision with the laws, and desires to
have the statute authorisng fogging modified be-
fore he comes under its provisions.
