recently told anecdote at a dinner party in this
city, which runs thus: He said that few weeks since
Gov. Seymour. OF N. Y, wrote to him. that since he
had vetoed the liquor law he had received letters from
all parts of the State, both proving and disappearing
of his course in the premises. Among them was one
from an honest deacon, who resided in the centre of
the State, which commended his action in the strong

the Governor that he deeply interested in the
debates of both sides of the question and did not let
one jot or title" escape him. He had too, he said,
"looked up" his bible from Genesis TO Revelation. in
order to see how the liquor question there treated,
and after mature Liberation he camc 10 the concus-

David, Solomon and Jesus, not only were partakers
OF the 'rosy" but recommended il to others; in
