The following from the Spectator is
sufficiently amusing to be worth
reprinting.
"The House of Commons has invent
ed a new mode of suppressing bores.
In the discussion on Mr. Forsters
Compensation for Disturbance Gre
land) Bill on Monday night, while
Mr.. Arthur O'Connor was pressing on
at great length, to the great discem-
future of the House, and threatening,
when disturbed, TO move the adjourn
ment of the debate by way of repri-
sails, an honorable Member who had
fallen asleep began to snore. For
that hint, honorable Members hither-
to painfully awake were evidently
grateful. AZ Mr. O'Connor proceed
cd, shores from the most opposite
quarters of the House accompanied
him in a kind of spontaneous SYM
phony, while peals of laughter follow
ed every fresh outbreak of the SOM
nolent epidemic. Mr.. Arthur OCon-
nor could not make much Roadway
against this happy combination Of
slumber and hilarity, and was COM
PEELED to bring his valuable remarks
to speedy conclusion"
The Dublin Correspondent ofthe Tines
telegral had on Aug 1st:-" Another
daring outrage has been committed in
connexion with the recent eviction at
Kilburry, near Clonmel. 1t viii be
remembered that the Sheriff, in PRO
ceeding to execute the writ, found the
house ~barricaded, trees fe!led and
laid across the road to prevent the
passage of vehicles, and a party Of
men inside aimed with weapons of
various kinds to resist an entrance,
which was ultimately forced. AT 2
o'clock on Friday morning a party of
20 men, with faces blackened, forci-
bly, entered the house, and, obliging
the bailiA in charge of it to kneel,
put revolvers to each a and made
him swear that he would leave and,
not return. An arrangement had
been entered into to let Miss Mengher,
sister of the evicted tenant, have o
lease of the lands on her marriage
with a person who is in good circum-
stances. This arrangement was set
aside by the armed party, who forced
Meagher to swear that he would not
sanction it. They then put Mrs.
Meagher again into possession. The
land is laid out in meadow, and no
one can be got to cut it." J

GENTLEMEN Il have not any objection
to giving you my views on the question of
the Greenback party, which Doctor Clarke
is representing, do not think that the
party, you refer to, is dangerous to the pro-
sperity Of the country, simply because it is
not large enough to elect any of its mem
bers to any office in the gift Of the people,
and as TO the amount of money DR.. Clarke
expended in Cairo in property, he cannot
blame either the Democratic party or the
Republican party, il simply is a deprecia-
ton in property, since he purchased the
property. Now, in regard to either the
Democratic party or Republican party,
have no fears us TO the election of either one

A Down Town MERCHANT. Having
passed several sleepless nights, disturbed
by the agonies and cries Of a suffering
child, and becoming convinced that Mrs.
Winsow's Soothing Syrup was just the
article needed, procured supply for the
child. On reaching home and acquainting
his wife with what he had done, she re-
fused to have it administered to the child,
as she was strongly in favor of HomGo-
pathy. That night the child passed in suf-
tering, and the parents without sleep. Re
turning home the day following, the faith
er found the baby still worse; and while
contemplating another sleepess night, the
mother stepped from the room to attend to
some domestic duties, and left the father
with the child During her absence he ad-
ministered portion of the Soothing Syrup
to the baby, and said nothing. That night
all hands slept well, and the little fellow
awoke in the morning bright and happy
The mother was delighted with the sudden
and wonderful change, and although at
first offended at the deception practiced
upon her, has continued to use the Syrup,
and suffering crying babies and restless
nights have disappeared. A single trial of
the Syrup never yet failed to relieve the
baby, and overcome the prejudice Of the
mother. Sold by all Druggists, % cents

monstrated beyond the possibility of a
doubt, that the Republicans hold you in a
vice-like grip from which there can be no
release unless you awake from the the
lethargic feeling of dependence, which
seems to have taken possession of your
senses.
That the Republican party is one from
which our race might reasonably expect
our rights in every particular, cannot be de-
nied,and for years did Ivote that ticket with
my brethren of the south, in the delusiye
hope that sooner or later, they would cease
to violate their pledges to us, and render
that justice which they knew was ours.
But that farcical expectation has finally
ceased to find a foothold
among the colored people of the south. The
change of political thought, and the large
amalgamation of the colored race south
with the Democratic party, has been caused
as much by the spectacle of the colored
man receiving emoluments from the Demo.
