The New York money market yesterday was
rather dull, ana commercial paper was in poor
demand at and 6 per cent. for prime endorsed.
The threatened attempt to effect an artificial
stringeBcy, by locking up gold, has been aban-
doned. There was . slight advance in the
stock market over the prices of the precedin2
day. Government bonds were dull.

There ought not TO be a days delay in either
branch of Congress in passing the bill intro
dUeed in the house on Monday by Mr.. Read
90 20 repeal all laws imposing duties on printers
types, ink and paper" The duty on these
articles a. il stands at present is an onereus tax
pure and simple, on the spread of intelligence
ard the diffusion of knowledge. Ii is kept up.
moreover, solely for the benefit of a few manu-
fscturers in this country. The present tariff is
so high as to keep out the foreign made articles
named almost entirely, 80 that little or no reve-
nue. goes into the public treasury from that
source, but at the same time the prices Of those
of home make can be and are kept extrava-
gantly high, on account of freedom from foreign
competition. And not this alone. There is a
close combination between the type founders of
this country, and also between the paper
makers, under which those manufacturers who
might be disposed to sell their wares at a fair
profit are prevented from doing so. and are re-
0uired either to sell at the exorbitant prices
fixed BY n committee or other authority within
their respective organizations, or take the risk
of being so tabooed and harrassed as to have
their business or business character virtually
destroyed.
The passage of this bill will remove a tax of
more than a million dollars year now imposed
on the re aders of books and newspapers, which,
as We have SAID above, gees, not into the gov
eminent treasury, but into the pockets of
handful of manufacturers. We cannot believe
that Congress will refuse to pass it.

Tie Philadelphia Ledger is credited with say
ing:
:" Relative TO the nomination of Colonel Thos
A. Scott, vice president OF the PENNSYLVANIA
Railroad, for President of the United States IL is
remarked that the gentleman can not really be
prevailed upon to accept, unless he can get a
lease OF the Office for nine hundred and ninety
nine years"
This is very clever, but not so good and prob
ably net so true a. another thing attributed to
the great railroad swallower. Once being asked
whether he would accept the democratic nomi-
nation for President, he is reported as answer
iEg: 90 No; would rather let them select some
other man; and after he is elected will lease
him and run him." Which he would be very
likely 10 do.

A bill to repeal all laws for the punishment of
citizens by stripes was defeated in the state SEN
ate of Virginia on the sd inst. Mr.. Graham,
OF NOttoway, who introduced the bill, in advo-
eating its passage, took the ground that whip
ping for petty offences, usually committed by
young offenders, has tendency to make great
criminals of them, by causing them to lose all
seIf-respect, and has been found to be a cruel,
harsh and barbarous way of punishment by the
army and navy of the United States, and by all
the states OF the Union except Delaware and
Virginia He claimed that many crimiDals are
actually reformed by refOrmatOry institutions,
while those who are publicly whipped in almost
every case become curse to society. The whip
Ping-pos law he regarded as a relic OF the dark
ages of the world, and a shame to the fair name
OF the state that boasts of being the .'mother OF
states and statesmen" The bill was defeated
by strict party vote, the dem ocrats voting
soiidly against it, and the republicans for it.

According to recent cable dispatches, trouble
I, i brewing between England and Russia. 1t
is stated in private kilograms from London that
the English government is actively intriguing
against the Russian government in her (Rus-
sia's) encroaehments on Central Asia. An en-
voy fIOm the Emir OF Bokhara has arrived at
Calcutta 1t is understood that he is the bearer
OF important dispatches in relation to the stu
alton OF affairs in that section; and the fact that
the greater portion OF the Anglo-Indian army
Is moving northwest gives color to the rumor
that the British government is determined to
OPPOSE any further extension of Russia's SWAY
in that direction. The section known as Box
haIa Is a province Of TurkistaR, nomnally in
dependent, but in reality tributary to Russia
IL is row thought that the Emir, in conjunction
with the government OF Great Britain, will en-
GeavOr to throw OFF the yoke. This is the re-
Port, but il lacks confirmation.
