THG BEEF QrEsTIoN.-We would caution the beef
eating community against giving too speedy credence
to fresh rumors as to the black tongue, diseased beef
in the markets, etc. Two Of yesterdays evening
papers mentioned as piece of news that the Jewish
Inspector Of Beef for the several Synagogues Of the
city had given warning to the people of those Syna-
gogues to beware of their beef that there were dis
eased cattle in the market, etc.
Now without having the authority, in black and
white wherewth to fatty contradict the above an
nouncement we will still assert our belief that no such
warning has been issued action of any other kind
taken by the purVeyors Of beef to the Jewish popu
lation. Last evening we conversed with several of
the most respectable of our Hebrew fellowcitizens
on the subject. They stated that they had no such
warning and that they continued to eat their beef as
/ freely as ever.
It is because the beef eaten by the Jews is killed
differently, and inspected more thoroughly, by their
beef purveyors that their opinion of beef is Of such
Importance to the rest of the beefeating community,
and draws so much extra custom to the Jewish beef
stalls in the markets. in times of beef panic like the
present. The rumors of yesterday, which got into
print were Of such nature as to elect our Hebrew
felloWcizens as final umpres in the decision of the
important question, whether we are to cat beef or
not They understand their position on the beef
question TOO we'll we are sure to allow the uncontra-
dicted circulation Of such report as that of which
we now speak if it be untrue; and then again, if it
should be true the public would have the right to
look for its Authorization by the responsible parties
The thing we opne will be settled officially, to-day
or tomorrow, and to the satisfaction of all Mean.
time, let nobody be afraid of his beef.
RAIsrSG THE WfND--A fast chap came up to town
a few days since, and stopped at the St. Charles
Hotel He had no baggage, but did seem to have the
better passport of pocket full of money. On Sun
day morning he took the steamship for Texas. But
it was found out that the previous evening he hat
left his olrn obituary notce for publication in one
the sunday papers as having died on Saturday of yel
low fever To the notice was appended the touching
sentimental line,

In paying for the notice, he requested the clerk tt
see that it was republished in the st. Louis ant
Chicago papers, and lett $50 to cover all the expense
of it. 1t was the appearance of the notice Of "

of the baggageless s. Bostwick from the hotel whicl
