NJ We learn by the Lansingburgh Gazette
that during the past season no less than
eight thousand t,eo hundred and sixteen head of
cattle have been slaughtered and packed in that
place by Chauncey P. Ives, Esq. M Ives es-
tablishment is the most extensive in the United
States, employing from seventy-five to one hun
dred hands. The saughtering season common
ces about the first Of October, and continues till
late in November. During this period about 400
bullocks day are slaughtered whenever press
of business requires despatch. The average, we
believe, is about 800 day, This establishment
not only adds much to the business and enter
prise of Lansingburgh, but It's influence extends
throughout the whole grazing country of north
em New.York, affording ready and convenient
market for the vast number of cattle which were
formerly driven to Montreal.
