A FAHaTIc IN THE PuLPlT.-The Rev.
Charles Beecher lately delivered a sermon
in New York against the fugitive slave law,
during which he uttered the following at
~rocious sentiments:
This law then, is wrong in the sight of
God and man-it is an unexampled climax
of sin. 1t is the monster iniquity of the
present age. and it will stand forever on the
page of history, as The rilest monument Of
infamy Of the ninetes nth century. Russia
knows nothing like it. Hungary blesses
God that she never suffered from anything
worse than Hsynau. And nations sfar off
pause awhile from their workship of blocks
of wood and stone, to ask, what will those
Christians do next?
God from his throne, who beholds all the
nations of the earth, looks down, and Christ
who hunsers and thirsts-is naked, sick,
and in prison with one of the least of his
brethren, looks down TO see what gigantic
elimination of guilt. what accumulation of
shame and sin, il proceeding To its consum-
nation, fer I remark-that there is vet one
thing more guilty than the act cf passing
tits law. There is yet one step wanting to
render complete and awful in the sight Of
God our mighty guilt; and that step is ODE
dience to the law. That is a sin ever more
Iexquisitely sinful than the making of the
law itself. far two rrasnns: first. because il
has the whole righteousness Of the law it,
self, for two reasons: first, because it has
the whole strociousness of the law itself
and secondly, because it has the whole al
rociousnrss Of the law itself; and secondly
because il has the whole atrociousnrSs ni
a stab at the freedom Of conscience, and Of
privrte judgment.
II this law is obeyed, what does a Chris
tian do, and why does lie do it? answer
he commits an act Of piracy, and he does ii
because the law says SO, and because lr
mus, obey the law, right or wrong, as lopg
as it is a law.

The New York Star, aIluding to the gold
en- harvest of California, and the whe at crop
of Ohio, makes some remarks worthy of re-
Election; it says:
California yields perhaps fifty millions of
dollars per annun, or after that rate. The
wheat harvest of Ohio for 1850 is set down,
we see, ct thirty millions of bushels, a guam
tity sufficient to supply the entire popuIa-
tion of the State, and leave a surplus of eigll-
teen millions Of bushels, worth atleast pigh-
teen millions ofdollars. The State contains
in round numbers two millions of people,
and the corn crop Of 1850 is estimated al
one hundred bushel to every inhabitant, or
two hundred of bushels in ell. Twenty
hve millions of dollars is an under estimate
Of the value Of the surplus of wheat and corn
alone raised in Ohio during ihe past yesr.
And this probably not a fourth of what could
be raised, even upon the land now under
cultivation 10 Ohio, unders more improved
system of agriculture. IF we take the en-.
tire farm products of the State and contrast
chem with the California gold yield, the lat
ter sinks into total insigpi6csnee. The

II gives me- pleasure 10 add my. testimony TO the
virtues "f your great medicine. One of my blood
ed horses had a swelling over the cap cfihe knee,
about the size Of a hens EGG. Some said it wasa
strain, and some, that it was the joint water from
the knee, and could not be cured. / tried oil cedar
ION il, and all the liniments and oiniments, and they
did no more good than water. ! then by persua-
sion Of my friends, tried II. G. FarrrlPs Arabian
L%ininent. and l wsS happy to find it take eject
after a few days, and il finally cured the noble an.
imal entirely. / think it is decidedly the greatest
liniinent for horse Is well as human flesh, ] ever
knew.
Esq. Barker, Of New Canton, H., says:l
Mr.. II. G. Farrell;S Arabian Linimeni has cured
ISnme had cases here, which every other remedy
had failed in: one was a white swelling and con.
l'racted cords in tine leg Of a boy twelve years old.
The leg had withered away, and was 80 contract.
ed that he had NO rsE of it. Three doctors had
tried their skill upon il in vain, and he was last
sinking 70 the grave, when the boys father was
Induced to try II. G. Farrell's Arabian Liniment.
Before the first bottle was used up he came into

'"N!r. Barker. ! want all that Liniment you have
in Tie store: the one bottle I got did my boy more
