The Convention was called to order by the Presi
dent. The minutes of yesterday's meeting were read
and approved.
The Secretary said that he would consider ths
paper presented yesterday by Mr. (jests as a part or
his speech, and so enter It upon the minutes, unless
the Convention order otherwise.

entered the hospitals, aud by their active exertions
many lives were saveu.
The speaker favored a formation or a Sisterhood la
the Kptxcopal Church.
Mr. Welsh Biiiu he rejoiced in the watchfulneis ol
the Church iu reierence to a tendency to Itomaolsh
customs. It was not mere adherence to the rope
that he cared about, but the practices which have
oeeu creepiiia in or late.
Objections were made to the report of yesterday.
but they were very absurd.
The speaker. In cuno nsion, read a portion of a letter
from .bishop Hlmpson, In reference to the subject of
the women working earnestly to gather into the
Church the worklnyiiieu und others.
Dr. Hairls said be felt under ohiiicatlons to the nre

subject under discussion. He trusted the work would

there was so much diueysity of opldton upon the
whole matter, and that was that they did not give it a
conBiaerallon from pure unnerslanding, but through
the colored medium of tbelr feelings and prejudices.
There seemed to be ad faculty about two points in
the report First, In regard to organisation of these
bodies; aud second. In regard to the address. You
must have organization to achieve success in any un
dertaking, There are women in every parish and In
every community whom uou nas eaucaitu especially

to labor for Christ, eiball we organize them

Christian women, it seemed to him to be Impossible
for the Convention to form an oniuiou. In bis own
parish be could not set along at all without

subject. The members were aoinc to decldo the ques

A Bkim.iant and Patriotic Sohemk The
prr Jcct lately started by a numberof prominent
anu pnti lotlc gentlemen to erect on the battle
field of Gettysburg a permanent home for Inva
lid or crippled Union eoldlersof the Rebellion,
is destined to prove a complete sKiccess. The
schtme, which is a very feiuilble ono.and whicn
will tm carried rut strictly und ;ulthfully, is
simply this: Although the erection of a home
for invalid soldiers meets with 'the cor. Hal
approbation of everyone, the Btate Legislature
did not feel Itself in a position to make the
necessary nppropraitlon to statllsh such an
institution, but in lieu thereof pasVod a bill on
the Ulli of March lat, grauting power to tbe
corporators named therein to raise the re
quired amount by means of a grand gilt distil
button.
It becoming known that certain parties In
New York hnd, during the Rebellion, pur
chased a latge number of diamonds and pre
cious Hones, inensures were taken to secure
them, and certain parties advanced the money
for their purchase. Certificates valued at live
dollars each will be Issued, and tbe holder will
not only contribute to a national and com
mendable enterprise, but will also have a direct
interest In tbe distribution of these magnifi
cent Jewels. The princely gifts are now on ex
hibition at No. 1126 Cbesnut street, and dally
viewed by hundreds of our citizens.
I tie management of tne a real enterprise lias
been confided to able and experienced hands,
uu (here is not the slightest doubt mat tne
entire scheme will be consummated to the per
fect satisfaction iof everybody Interested. The
site selected for the erection or the Home, ana
which consists of the piece of ground usod as
General Meade's headquarters during the battle

deceased, and In doing so uuld a hlgu compliment to
the gonial qualities of Dr. rUondinaii. Tbe BunKestlon
or Dr. Klrkbrids was adopted, and at the requenof
the Association the thalr appointed Dr. Walkerto
prepare ths memorial In question,
ft I he minutes of the meeting of the past two days
were Ihen read by the Secretary, Dr. Curwen, who
announced the reception of Invitations to visit ths
Asylum for the Deaf and Dumb and tbe House of
Itetuge.
The vote fixing the lime of the next annual meet
ing, to be held lu Dosinu. was then reconsidered, lor
the reason that the Male Medical (society was to moet
about Ibe rame time In Hnrrlshurg, where- the pre
sence or Dr. Curwen, the Becretary of the Association,
was ni cessary.
Jr-.Usher suggested the last Tuesday In May, but
Dr. Walker Intimated that the last week of May was
always a rainy week. (Daughter,)
Unite a lengthy discussion ensued, a desire beln
manifested on the part or several gentlemen to ac
commodate the enfrsirc menli ot Dr. liancrott, or Ne
Hampshire. The date of the meeting was then fixed
for the firnt week in June, Ku8.
The American prat-lice of alluding so pointedly In
fse minutes of scientific bodies to bountiful colla
tions, plum puddings, and bon-bons, was severely
commented upon by Drs. Brown, Kirkbrlde, Curwen,
and .arle the latier ma.'ntalnliig that such bodies
in this country were apt to dwindle Into mere eating
associations. He hoped all reference to such sub
jects would be expunged from the minutes. The
whole matter produced a bad linpressleu on Euro
peans. Dr. Wallter stated that he hac? been Inferraed that
European scientific bodies paid far more attention to
eating than did Americans, but they made-no refer-
r.iv.r hi inn nimin 111 llltj Ullliuie.
Beveral otlrermembers discussed the Subject, tropin
that the eatlsg would continue, but that the records
ot the association would make no reicreiice to It. Tbe
subject was disposed of by a general understanding
that this much-needed reformation would be InsuKu
rated by the SecTolary and tbeC ommltvee ou Itewjld
tlons. at tbe present meeting.
Tbe Association then proceeded to theertnslderatroa
of tbe tubject of the cluoulc Insane, wbl Mi bad been
before the session yesterday afternoon, ar tbe l'eui
sylvanla Hospital fov the Insane.
Dr. Cbapin.or New York, staled tbe substance of a
paper read by him yemerday, to tbe effect tbat when
legislation was asked foi-'the benefit ot tho Insane lu
the county poor bnuws; It was usually the case
that tbe Institutions thus rounded Ignored
the poor Insane. He referred to the
former pracilce In New Tork State, of placing both
acute and chronic cases In-the almshouses, where
they were huddled together' In misery and dirt. In
1S66 a movement was started for the benefit of the
poor insane of the Mate, and a new asyluit- was
now In process of erection. He slated, boweverthat
tbe action ol tbe Association iaet'Pyear Iliad beeir ad
verse to this new movement In New York Htate, aud
had seriously embarrassed It. In tbe course of his
remarks. Dr. Cliapin slated that there were four tl u
sbpmI Insane persons In New Yori who were not in
asylums.
Dr. i- isher argued In favor of keeping the chrol
and acute cases together. In tbe Institution ovir
which be himself presided (the Stale Asylum at
Baletgb. N. C), there were many persons allllcteti
with chrnnlo iusaniiy wuom be hlifluy regarded
as Irlende, and was as much Interested liv
their welfare OS be was In that of the most hopeful"
case briiuntit under his cure. He hoped the duv would
oomesoou when this association would meet ln his
feotlon of the country, and lend lis great moral (in
fluence to the cause of tbeailllcted there. He also
alluded to tha subject of insanity among the negro
population of the i-outh. Within one year he had re- .
ceivcd thirty negro patients, and bad been obligl to i
refuse many others. He had beeu obliged to p ace
tne whites and marks together, which course nad
operated very prejudicially. This was abhorrent to
the sentiments of the while population of theHouth,
who bad not yet beeu educated up to this point.
Dr. Brown, ol New Yora, then addressed tbe Asso
ciation, urging ureal caution In the expression of tbelr
opinions ou any subject, lest It should be used In a
manner not anticipated, as had been the case in ibe
past. He confirmed the statement of Dr. Chapln that
tbe Insane poor ol tbe State had not been, and were
not being, properly cared for. He believed tbst no
one did more to people tbe insane departments of the
poorbonses or New York than the managers of tbe
blate Institution at Utica.
Many persons were received Into this Institution
whose friends were amply able to provide for them
elsewhere, thereby, in direct violation of the law, ex
cludiiiB. the patients who were unable to pay their
ooara, and were tnereioro rorceu mto tne county
poor-bouses, or obliged to remain la tbelr own
houses.
Dr. Grnndy, ot Ohio, argued that tbe State should
piovlde accommodations for tbe Insane or all classos,
whether rich or poor. He regret'ed very much that
lu auy Suite there should be any distinction which
consigned the Insane poor to sucb places as Tewks
bury, MaasHChusetia. When ll was left to any
one to make the discrimination, the friendless
must go by the board, while the wealthy would be
sent where com tort abounded. He was unwilling to
place the power of such discrimination In any hands.
Dr. Woixman, of Toronto, Canada, adveited to the
magnitude ot tlie subject, and said the tendency was
to treat the poor Insane according to the lines:
"We'll blow the vlllulns all sky high,
Hut do It with economy."
Dr. Jarvis, or Massachusetts, stated bis honest belief
tbal tbe members of the Association were among tbe
most eminent scientllic men In the whole country,
lie said they had to deal with politicians for aid, and
that, therefore, tbo element of economy must enter
Into their calculations. He referred to a census or tbe
lunatics in bis own State, finding over '26m, while
the State census made the numoer only l'Jio.
and the national census of five years before, only luoo.
ur i he foreigners, all but 0 per cent, bad been treated
in hospitals, wnueis percent, or in see or American
birth bad not received such treatment. Tbe sin or the
State was not the neglect of its dependent foreign
population, bnt of Its own children. Iu tbe tbree
State asylums of Massachusetts, be bad found that the
proportion ol inmates or rorelgn birth to tbe foreign
population was double that or those of American
birth. He thought It Indiscreet to place the lusane in
BStitutloDS comaing paupers.
Dr. Nichols, of Washington. D. C. referring to tbe
aliened difficulty ln obtaining aid from the State
Legislatures, thought tbat if the Association were
unanimous and earnest ln asking for what It deemed
right, tne Legislatures wouia oe louua wining togrant
all the aid necessary. What had transnlrad durlug
tbe pan two years confirmed this belief.
l ne suoject oerore tne Association was biiii itirtuer
discussed by several of the members up to the hour
of adjournment, at 1 o'clock.
At it o'clock tuts arternoon, Dy invitation or ur.
Wortblngton. tbe members visit the Friends' Hos
pital for the Insane at Frankford.
Thb Members of the Corn Exchange Asso
ciation voted yesterday for a change of title of
their organization, aud by an almost unani
mous vote it was agreed that the name be
altered to Commercial .Exchange of Philadel
phia; and at their meeting to-day Mr. C. J.
Hoffman, wbo voted ln the minority, moved to
make tbe vote unanimous, wnicn was carried
bv a general shout, "yea!" when E. Harper
Jeffries said: "Permit me, on behalf of the
gentlemen who advocated ine ennnge oi title,
to thank the Flour aud Grain men for tbelr
votes and Influence ln favor of the change, for
to them belongs the honor and credit, and

T& Messrs. Gentlemen of the Union League Club:
Genllemen.--t- waa favored yesterday, by an
official note from oor ever-courteous and well
dressed President, notifying me tbat a requisi
tion bad' been presented to biua for "a special
meeting of tbe- Club, at an early day, for the
purpose of taking In t consideration tha con
duct of Horace Greeley, a member of this Club,
wbo will still laelst on dressing in a white coat
cut ln the style of the last centnry, and wearing
his pamtaloons cut wlthi one leg shorter than
the other, notwithstanding the great facilities
offered by estabUshmenta- like Charles Btolcea
ft Co. '8, Clotnlerg,uiider tne Continental, of fur
nishing better clothes at the same cost. I beg,
therefore, to ask on wbat evening will it ba
convenient for yea- that I. oall tbe meeting,"
etc. etc.-.
In my prompt rply I requested the President
to give you- reasonable time to reflect your
selves; that I shall not attend the meeting; I
consider myself competent to attend to my own
'get np;"aud that I. hope tbo Club will not
back, water, bnt that they will have a good time
of It generally. My past record shows that this
style of dress la no new thing with me, and I
shall continue It, notwithstanding the adver

HosTfiTTBR's Stomaoh Bitticks are not known;
and, when known, appreciated.
In the United States and British America
It bus become a household word. As a protec
tive against malaria, epidemic fevers, fever and
ague, and other diseases, produced by miasma
tic influences, it stands far ahead of all other
preparations, and Is so considered by the most
eminent physicians of the day.
In South and Central America, Mexico,
and Wkst Isdiks, it has obtained a firm bold
on the minds of the people, and is Implicitly
relied upon as a certain preventive and cure
for tbe many malarious diseases Incident to
those tropical regions.
In Australia, Tasmania, New Zealand,
and adjacent IhIuuUb Us progress has been mar
vellous. Merchants, Miners, Farmers, Manu
facturers, and Squatters all endorse It. Thou
sands already has it saved from the pernicious
effects of miasma arising from the low swampy
grounds so prevalent ln those countries.
In China and. the East Indies it Is working
Us way with rapid strides, and is extensively
used in tbe hospitals.
In conservative Europe, even, its Influence
is being felt; and tbe day is not far distant
