W SOLOMON'S BlrTERs.-THIS PRE-
IARAT1oN. compounded by one of our Oldest and
most esteemed druggists has. during the short time
In which 1t has been offered to the public, attained
reputation which has almost entirely driven out Of
market the various tonics and smulants which, for
q few months. by e1orbitant putting and heavy ad-
vertisng, succeeded in building q profitable busi-
ness for their projectors.
solomon's Bitters are not of the fashy style, de-.
pending upon large advertising, bought pufs and
fictitious recommendations for sale to gullible
public Their composition is well known to and ap'
proved by many Of our best physicians and the pro-
pretors depend upon the intrinsic merits Of their
medicine to make 1t as popular as 1t is curative.
They do net tpretend to offer medicinal prepara-
ton that will cure all the ills that flesh is heir to-
but they do contend that the judicious Of these
Bitters will greatly alleviate human suffering, and
bring very many to q state Of comparative health
who have long been strangers to that great blessing
One good genuine recommendation Of any pro-
fessed curative Is worth dozens or hundreds Of
bought certificates, and the Messrs. sOLcMONS
have only published few out of the hundreds of un-
solicited testimonies which the have received. We
this morning give copy of letter from Hon. ALEX.
q. STEPHENS, whose peculiarly enfeebled condition
Tor the past SIX months has been known to the whole
country. His few earnest words will 90 much fur.

to the beneficial qualities of this medicine than

GENTLEMEN-Please send me half dozen bottles

Of daylight was opened between the two
boats. The gap was increased, until at Crab.
tree, mile and an eighth from the start. At
lengths ahead. They we're pulling at the rate
Of forty three strokes per minute, the O1fords
holding their own at thirty-eight strokes.
Above the point, the coxswaln of the Harvards
hugged the Middlesex shore, and the Oxfords
slightly quickened their speed. At the soap
works, o mile and half from the aqueduct,
they had closed the gap, and Harvard held a
lead of half length by the skin of their teeth.

have another trial IN one weeks time. The
Oxford partially agreed to the proposition. 1t
is, however, matter Of great uncertainty
whether efforts to that effect will be successful.
THE NEWS IN NEW YORK.
At the gold-room, in New York, the first dis
patch received was from the Associated Press,
announcing that Oxford had won by three
lengths. This dispatch was received with gen.
eraI sensation and disgust that the members
NOR spread about that the dispatch had been
incorrectly transmitted, aud that 1t was really
the Harvard boys that had won By three
lengths. This announcement created the Wild
est excitement, and cheer upon cheer rent the
air from tho assembled multitude. About the
time this rumor had become well circulated,
and the excitement WIS reaching high pltch,
a respectable and well.known member Of the
board rushed to the presidents desk, holding
o dispatch in his hand. TIE dispatch was at
once found to confirm the rumor that The Har-
wards had won the race. A sanguine opera
tor offered 500 against S. that Harvard
had Won, and for some little time there
was rivalry among the gentlemen who were
thus expressing their faith in the plucky boys
across the water. 1t was not until q letter was
received from Mr.. Simonton, explaini "g that
the dispatch received was forgery, that the
excitement died out. In the stock room the
same scene was enacted. A similar dispatch
was produced and the same wild excitement
prevailed, and the same feeling Of disappoint-
ment pervaded the assembly when this dis
patch was pr ronounced false. Last evening at
the hotels wealthy citizens, railroad men, and
others were consoling each other over the de-
feat of Harvard by plans to induce the Oxford
crew to come to this country and row the Har.
ward crew in American waters under American
conditions as completely as our boys had &C.
cepted English conditions in visiting English
waters. Mapy we're the boasts that the Ok
ford crew without the coxswain would find ths
Harvard stroke too much for them.

sidsrstaou. One Of the dlfioul5 points about

sidsrafaon. One OF the d1ffioulJ points about
tho whole matter in dealing with it diplomsti-
caly, il that our own Supreme Court recog~
niSed the beliIgerency of tho South seventeen
days before the Queens proclamation was is
sued, and so far ut least as Spain is conoern-
ed, we are ON record in our diplomatic corres-
pondenoe rs thanking that country for not
hav,n, given more substantial aid aud counte
panoe to The rebellion. The New York Times
correspondent states authoritatlvely that
''the Administration had not the slightest
intention Of resorting to Immediate hos
tilities, and will not adopt belllgerent
attitude without tho gravest provocation.
The President and his Cabinet are en-
tirely in accord on the point that a
foreign war would be extremely disastrous at
the present time. Although we are not by any
means 80 enfeebled as to shrink from CONTEST
il forced upon us, still every effort will be used
TO steer clear of foreign complication until our
great indebtedness has become more manage
able, and until the way towards specie pay
ments has been cleared. It is stated on the
authority Of one of the secretaries thai the Ex-
ecutive is now extremely anxious in referen 20
to the point made by Mr.. Sumner in his speech
as to what constitutes blockade. jBut MIR.
Summers argument as q whole is not by any
means the reflex of the views OF the President
and Cabinet" President Woolsey recently
said in o lecture at Yale College that war is not
justified in the case Of the Alabama until the
British Government refuse to submit the
question to proper tribunal, and one satis-
factory to the United States. Up to that point
it is purely q question Of q peaceful nature.

Tho Cry for stProtection."

The Paris Cosmopolitan regards the cry
here forproteotIon as humiliating, and says
Indignantly Tkere is something offensive
in this word .sprotection" to o self -reiiant
and independent people. To ask for pro-
teotion Of any sort is o sign Of weakness,
Of inferiority. Infants require protection,
and women used to want protectors. Small
and feeble States, called by courtesy
''powers,p also have to, be protected by their
superiors. But when a'great nation clamors
to have its productions, agricultural or
mechanical, protected by tariffs, it cuts
sorry figure in the eyes Of all the world by
confessing it's inability to cope with its
rivals. We do not understand. how proud
and independent American can read the
daily appeals Of the New York Tribune, and
other high-tariff organs, for '.protection,"
without o blush Of shame or flush Of In
dignation. Protection against whom CT
what? The labor, skill, capital, or soil of
other countries? Ridiculous nonsense,
monstrous injustice! America needs no
protection, and her legislators should proud
ly spurn the narrow-minded, illogical, il
liberal, and humiliating idea. Whatever
America cannot make, or produce, better
anu cheaper than any other nation, let her
take those articles Of commerce from others
in exchange for her own unrivalled pro.
ducts or fabrics. The doctrine of protection
lacks the first element of justice; In plain
English, it is downright robbery. To pro-
fpCt vno h,,usu n Z. :
manufacturer, you must tax another's. If
the New England cotton spinners must be
protected or subsidized by the government,
why not the Southern cotton grower This
old tariff quarrel had much more to do
in bringing about the late civil war than
the slavery question; and we regret to say
that the fight is still going on. We regret
still more that the present party in power
in the United States hold to the protection
dogma as one of its corner-stones. This, il
no other causes were at work, will, sooner
or later, seal the fate Of the Republican
party. It is based on falsehood, and,
therefore, it thong endure. On turn
ing to France, we are still more surprised
to find q party clamoring for protection, for
the repeal Of tho Comparatively free trade
treaty with England. The movement origi-
nated with few selfish manufacturers, led
off by Rouen deputy, largely Interested
in cotton mills, we believe. committee
Of the Corps Legislatif has got the matter
under their consideration. We trust there
is too much w;sae= end !.9gic in the leg:==
iature Of France to listen to the interested
appeals Of the protectionists, who are not
ashamed to confess that they cannot COM
pete with England in the manufacture Of
certain articles. Then let them 70 to Eng
land for these articles, and pay for them in
thsir duty-free wines, gloves, jewellery,
and articles de Paris. Free trade is the
gospel ofoommerce, the salvation Of nations.
And yet, thus far, the most advanced gov-
ernments have only approached it. ay.7 ia.s
