ever made! Well, it is just about the same with Goshen butter and Goshen cheese. We happen to have our eye on letter in the N. York Commercial, written from Goshen, and that calls up the remarkable fact in political economy, that, like the oil in the widows cruse, all the Goshen butter and cheese be- comes, when it leaves home, multiplied by One thousand.
 There are very few people who know the meaning of Goshen butter and Goshen cheese. In the first place you know it is the right and proper name for the peculiar seat of butter and cheese for the "land of Co., shen" was in olden time famous over the known world for its fatted cattle and dairy products.
 But the Goshen we are talking of is in our country, and moreover it is twotold; for Go- shen butter did not originate in the same place with Goshen cheese. Goshen butter comes from Orange county, New York, and fat land it is. Of course all the butter which comes from there, is orange -colored, at least, all we ever saw. 1t IS none of your white, cheesy, crumbling stuff, that one don't know whether it is cheese or butter. Nor is h any of your oily, perky, dirty stuff, that one don't know whether it is lard or butter. 1t is just exactly butter, and nothing else.- Well, you tell an Orange county farmer, if you are well to live, that you want one or two tirkins in October; and he lets you have it al Is l-2 cents per pound, and you trouble yourself no more till spring, except when you are spreading it over hot buckwheat cakes. That is the origin of Goshen butter. Now w-a-days, like Port wine, you get Goshen butter any where.
 Now we will tell you where Goshen cheese comes from. It did come (we mean before modern inventions made it out of butter milk, saw-dust and four,) from Goshen in COnnccicut-quitc different place, but ex- actly in the same latitude and on the same ridge of hills as the other Goshen. This Co., shcn is on one of the highest hills of Litch- field county. All about it lie green pas lures all around it flow ripplng, sparkling brooks; and there feeds many dairy COW and many pretty dairy maid rouses the lark to his matinS, and sings the sun to his rest. II IS quite pleasant, we assure you, in a summer day.
 We'll, there the Goshen cheese-that is, ihe ld-fashioned sort-is made; and, aston ishing to say, although the people who make it are all genuine Yankees, there is no lard, or saw-duSt, or flour, or ground bones, put in it. It is cheese, and nothing but cheese.- We once saw upwards of three hundred pineapple cheeses in one house there- Well. this cheese is wagoned off from there and all the towns about there, til it gets down to New Haven, and from there to New York. and from there to Virginia, and Louis- jana, and every where.
 These are the original places of Goshen butter and Goshen cheese, and they are in a good'y and pleasant land. When we hear of the absurd rival jealouses, the fantastic boastings, the threatened diSunions which come from crawling demagogues who are not really bad at heart but want to make themselves conspicuous, let him reflect that he is wearing clothes made from cotton which grew in South Carolina, and was wove in Massachusetts eating sugar from Louisiana, flour from Ohio, butter from N. York, cheese from Connecticut, and beef from Kentucky. Let him bc grateful that his lot fell ill the llnd ot Gashen-tell his children of Wash ington. to cry "Liberty and Union forever!"
 Tennessee-Disorder and turmoil seem to rule the proceedings of the Tennessee Le- gislature. On the 2d inst, the day on which the Senate had agreed to meet the House in joint ballot to elect U. s. Senator, motion was made to do so It was opposed by one Samuel Laughlin, who pronounced the mea- sure unconstitutional, and with great blus- ter refused to leave his seat and dared the whole Senate to force him to go or to expel him for not going. After long wrangle the Speaker and the twelve Whigs started for the Housc-the eleven I.ocos remaining Al tHS 1lOuSC NIT. SpedhcT uTHcy LOOK LnC Chair, and the door-kccper of the Senate was sent after the other members. He re- turned with q written message from them saying that they were in the Senate Cham Der, ready to transact business whenever a quorum should be present. The LocoS in the Joint Session contended with great dis order that their being no quorum of the Se- nators present there could be no organiza- tion; but the Speaker decided that although they could not proceed to an election, the body could still adjourn from day to day. While the motion for adjournment was pending. about twenty Locos left the House. The others then adjourned.
 The probability now is the Legislature will adjourn and the members go to their homes; and if the twelve disorganiZers do not meet an indignant rebuke for their con- iemptible conduct from their constituents, we shall be greatly mistaken.

M., but was forced by the storm 10 anchor under the lee of Hart's Island. - At about ten she dragged her anchor, which was cast in new place. The cable soon parted, as did that of the second anchor- The machinery was set in motion, but the tiller ropes gave way, and the boat was driv- cn at the mercy of the winds, and went a. shore at half past ten. She continued to withstand most furious sea until half past one, when she sprung leak and soon filled with water. The passengers, crew and freight are all saved. During the whole, the Captain acted with great coolness and Al
