The New York Jour n&o(jommercet the Philadelphi a Times t and the Charleston News and Courier, alt papers of hieQ,oba.raeter4 have just spoken. The Times says: What was Intended as a Just protection to the manufacturers of printing paper, has been perverted to a most oppressive mo nopoly, and that monopoly is largely if not mainly owned by Congressman 'Miller,5 of New York, and Congressman Russell, ;i of Massachusetts ;: . i : "It is now conceded that the dauae in the UrLflf that protects this monopoly of Repre sentatives Miller and Russell was believed by Congress to have been repealed some years ago; but by an oversight of Congress, or the cunning of some shrewd clerk, the Words 'dried pulp twenty per cent' ad va lorem,' were retaraedift tB-iaw, in pal pable conflict with the terms "Which" place pulp and woods for tbS manufacture of pa per on the free list" 1 For some days the old red shirt has been flapped vigorously , in Con gress. The usual stereotyped phrases, "traitors," "rebel ore w,n etc, have been hurled at the heads of Sonthern members. The State's Waahidgton letter says:.'' EvidenUv the nhllllDDic of Mr. House (Democrat) against the Republican party, and especially ni& admirable showing op or the shameless manner In which the present Administration has rewarded every man connected with the Returning, Board ras calities in 1870, hurt the reelings or me Re publican members, but it opened a way for them to get off political tirades they have been nursing for months. Neither Crow ley, Young, Butterworth nor Richardson bad ever made a speech of any consequence ia Cosgress, and to abuse the South and the Democratic party la so easy.; The two last named are uncommonly good speak ers, but very few. - Democrats listened to' what they said. ! "The. North Carolina members have re ceived information that not one of the State, Committee which yesterdsy met at Raleigh and appointed four delegates at large to Cincinnati is for Mr. Tildca." Special to Richmond Dispatch. We think this is an error. If any delegates were appointed we oyer looked it. The State Committee, as we understand it, exercised no such power. The state Convention will elect the delegates at large. Mr. Tilden will get no delegates from North Carolina unless the people are misrepresented. " There are but few men in the world who possess more grit than Stanley, the African explorer. He is a man of great pluck, endurance and perti nacity. Already four out of his twelve or fifteen white companions have s ttoo urn bod to the influence f the African climate and the severe toil among the cataracts of the Con go, but he still holds to his purpose to cross the continent again, although he expects to lose al his reliablf com pantons on the way. Some of the papers insist that be cause majority of .the papers are fori selling the . Western JUepbant that it is good reason why it should be done. Numbers cannot make a wrong a right. But we do not understand that a majority of the papers favor the Best bill as it is. We rather think the majority is the other way.

Early yesterday evening, the New Mar ket was thrown open for the inspection of the public, and shortly after 7 o'clock its spacious interior was thronged with visitors who came to view the gas-lit structure in all its perfection;and completeness. A few of the stalls only were occupied, many of the proprietors being unable to make the trans fer to their new quarters on the short no tice given ; but the suspended quarters of fit .beef and sundry carcasses of plump porkers hanging on the hooks, betokened business on the morrow. A bsnd of music was in attendance to enliven the occasion and the ladies of St. John's Church, who had engaged a stall for the occasion, dispensed refreshments and bouquets to the throng. "Mr. G. P. Lamb, who occupies s stand in the building, displayed a handsome collec tion of plants and flowers. A constantly augmented crowd, of all classes and conditions, kept the place filled until a late hour, and withal there seemed to be but a universal expression of approval of the plan of the building, its appoint ments and convenience, and of gratification ai its completion. Death Ireaa a Spider Bite. Last Thursday, Jimmie Yarnam, a little boy about 15 or 16 years old, while picking up roots, &c, on the fsrm of Mr. Columbus Swain, ia Brunswick county, was bitten by a very poisonous spider, of the black kind, having red spots on it, snd died within twenty-four hours afterwards. He was bitten on the left wrist, near several large veins, and the poison was carried so rapidly through his system, and the pain so severe, as to almost paralyze his left leg before be could reach the house, which was only a short distance from the field. Every remedy that could be thought of was applied, but without relief to the sufferer. For about ten hours before be died he had very severe 8pssms. in rapid succession, which con tinued until the breath left the. body. At the time of interment, which was about twenty-four hours after he died, the body was very much swollen, and large black splotches bad formed about the face and neck. Mr. J. B.

MBS. WINSLOW'S SOOTHING SYRUP. Rev. Sylvanus Cobb thus writes fn the "Boston Christian Freeman" : We would by no means recommend any kind of medicine which, we did not know to be good particularly for infants. But of Mrs, Wins low's Soothing byrapwe can speak from knowl odcre: in our own family it has moved a blessing? iadeed, by giving an infant troubled with oolic pains, quiet sleep, ana us parents unDrosen rest as sight. Most parents can appreciate these blessings. Hera is an article which works to perfection, and which is harmless; for the sleep which it affords the infant is perfectly natural, and the little cherub awakes as bnght as a button.' And during the process of teething its value is incalculable. We have frequently heard mothers say they would not be without it from the birth of the child till it had finished with the teethmz slese. on anv considera tion whatever. Sold by ail druggists.
