/ We tried yesterday a couple Of ribs
from Alexander the Great-not the
Macedonian hero-but noble OK Of that
name, raised by Mr.. Moses Lyman, Of
Goshen in this State-and we say in all
truth, that it was in every respect as ine
a piece Of beef as ever graced any body's
table. The pair, Alexander and Napole-
on. both raised by Mr.. Lyman. il is as
serted were the best specimens of cattle
ever brought to this market. Their
united weight, dressed, was three thou
sand six hundred pounds. There is but
one opinion Of the quality Of the meat
among those who tastsd it. The Demo.
Gratis, who had slices oft during election
week, are informed that it was Wing beef
raised by as true Wing farmer 40 ever
swung 4 scythe. He lives in . Wing
town chat never cast q Free Soil vote,
and never fails to roll up tremendous
Wing majority. The farmers Of Goshen
are about perfect in every thing.

In the last New York Observer We

late anti-slayery speech at the Broadway
Tabernacle. Even Captain Rynders and
bis gang appear to have been shocked at
his impiety.

No one objects to them. The devil him
self has no objection to the ordinances.

Sabbath is popular. IL is so popular
that we find Church and State united To
make It's violation penal, and laws enacted
to shut you up in prison or take money
out of your pocket if you violate it. Dr..
Watts in his hymn says: y ..
This 10 the day the Lord hath made,
He calls the hours his own.
The Lord made the Sabbath-day; who
made tie other six days? Instead Of
saying, this 10 the day the Lord hath
made; if they could say, this is the man
the Lord hath made, he ought TO be
held sacred from chains and harm---they
would give some evidence Of reverence
for God. THIS Sabbath observance win
damn this nation, as il did the Jews Of
old, for they never observed Il 50 religi-
