for liis reception at the west end of Faneuil Hall, 

 IJostou. TJiis animal is said to be only five years 

 vjld ; and from liis present size, and rapid growth 

 it is tliought he will sooa attain the weight of 5000 

 pounds! He is as remarkable for symmetry as 

 ^ize, and has all the poinis which amateurs are ac- 

 customed to admire in fine cattle. He is of the 

 Durham short horn breed, and wo doubt whether 

 ^ly nobleman in Great Britain does more credit to 

 his lineage than this magnificent ox. 



The famous Durham ox, so much celebrated in 

 the annals of British Agriculture, at 5 years old 

 weighed 30'24 pounds only, fidling more than 1000 

 ibs. short of Americus.
