A New MATERIAL FOR PAPER.-We were
shown specimen of paper few days since,
manufactured from weed which grows spon-
taneously all over the Northern States and
known generally by the name of white top.
Though possessed of some woody fibre, it still
becomes entirely perfect pulp under the or
binary bleaching and beating operation. Pa
per-makers state that fine article of smooth,
strong, beautiful paper can be manufactured
from it al about ten per cent. discount on pa
per made from rags. The adhesive qualities
of the shrub are SO great that no animal matier
need be used in manufacturing ordinary PRINT

without sizing. A patent has been secured to
the inventor and he proposes TO erect at his
residence in Canada East, large mandatory
