For 12 or 15 years, says nfpecial dispatch,
Philadelphia has been tho seat of a number
of medical colleges thnt flooded tho country
with spurious diplomas. Tho Legislature
of Pennsylvania tried, in 1872, to suppress
the institutions, but failed, and they havo
been run ever since on legally issued char
ters. Tho authorities declared themselves
powerless to stop it. Six month ago the
city editor of tho Record, John Norris, called
tho attention of Attorney-General Palmer
to theso concerns, aud the grave necessity of
their suppression. Hut the Stalo had no
evidence against them, and tho Attorney
General had no money with which to pro
ceed. Then tho Record offered to advance
tho money to tho Commonwealth upon
promise of reimbursement by tlio State Leg
islature, and tho work was begun. Wednes
day it culminated in proceedings which will
probably wipo out five spurious medical
colleges, and in tho arrest of John Buehan
an, Dean of tho American University at
Philadelphia! and tbo Eclectic Medical Col
lege of Pennsylvania. Ho wos also Presi
dent of tho National Eclectic Medical Asso
ciatlon, which issued diplomas, nnd under
tho alias ol James Mtfrray, D. D., ho acted
as dean of n concern issuing its diplomas as
the Livingstone University of America.
Two others of tho faculty, Charles S. Polk
and John J. Seggins, weio arrested, and six
others of tho faculty ore still ot large, ap
parently out of tho reach of the police.
Tho Record of Thursday published a fnl
cxpoto. Its city editor has prepared evi
dence which it is alleged will show tho sales
of foity-two diplomas to various persons. Ilo
gives tho names of eleven others to whom
tbo diplomas wero offered, and tho names
of cloven agents who wcro acting for Uu
chanan. Tho Record man himself set the
trap which resulted in Buchanan's arrest.
For $75 he obtained three medical diplomas,
ono in English from the Eclectic Medical
Cellego of Penusylvunia, a regularly char
teicd institution, ono from tho American
University of Philadelphia, in English, nnd
another from tho National Eclectic Medical
Association.
(Jyo featuro of the proceeding Is that while
tho last named concern was organized in
189, its diploma to tho nowspaper man is
dated 1878. All purrtcd to show that the
uewspapes man, undor tho namo of Dr. John
Fanning, of Tippccanoo City, Ohio, studlei
mediciuo tor tlireo years, had attended tw
fulll courses of lectures, and had passed
satisfactory examination in cacti ol tho ecv
en branches of medicine. Not satisfied Willi
this evidence, ho sent lcltors under the
namo of Dr. Geo. A. Dawson,apparenlly be
longing to Chester Court House, S. C, ask
lug fordegreos. For $150 ho obtained five
degrees, two of Doctor of Mcdiciue, one
Doctor of Divinity, ono iSoctor of Laws, and
ono Doctor of Civil Law. Tho final letter in

Tho Hcv. J, S. Furnls, a Presbyterian,
Is reported by tho Plilladclphfa ZVmcs tts In
forming his congregation that hell is In tho
blazing centra of tho earth. "Down In this
place," ho said, "Is a horrible nolso. Listen
to tho tremendous, tho horriblo uproar bf
millions nnd millions of tormented creatures,
mad with llio fury of lioll I Oh I lliescroams
of fear, tho groans of horror, tho yells of
rage, tho cries of pain, tho shouts of agony,
llio shrieks of despair, from millions on mil
lion! I Thcro you hear them roaring lllto
lions, hissing llko serpents, howling liko
dogs, and walling liko dragons I Thoro you
hear tho gnashing of teeth nnd tho fearful
blasphemies of tho devils. Above all you
hear tho roar of tho thunders of God's anger,
which shakes hell lo its foundations." Ilo
described tho Inmates of this hell suffering,
without a moment's cessation, tho most
frightful torture. Tho following Isopassago
from tho sermon t "Tho roof Is rod hot. Tho
floor Is liko a thick sheet of red-hot Iron
See, on the mlddlo of that red-hot iron floor
stands a girl. Blio has neither shoes nor
stockings on her feet. Listen I Sho speaks.
She says : I have been standing with my
baro feet on this red-hot floor for years.
Sleep never catno on mo for a mom :nt. Look
nt my burnt feet. Lot mo go off this burn
ing floor for ono moment only for a short
moment. Ol that In this endless eternity
of years I might forgot tho pain only for ono
single moment.' The devil answers her
question : 'No, not for a single moment shall
you ever lcavo this red -hot floor.'"
An enlightened (?) Philadelphia Grand
Jury recommends tho revival of tho
whijiping post for criminals. "While,"
sny tho jurors, "Incarceration to a sensitive
nature may bo painful nnd humiliating
enough to accomplish nil tho objects to bo
obtained by punishment of any kind, yet in
tbo enso of a very largo proportion of tho
dangerous classes of society tho profession
al thief, tho well-dressed pickpocket, tlto
adroit swindler and confidence man, togeth
er with thoso of a moro brutal uaturo a
short term of Imprisonment in comfortable
quarters with wholosomo food isnotadequale
to obtain tho end required. Criminal pun
ishments should bo severe, short, and decis-
Ivo. Then the prison would be sufficient to
meet tlw requirements." Jttdgo Biddlc.who
was presiding when tho communication was
read, said that it would not bo for tho wel
fare of tho community lo revivo tho brutal
modes of punishment. Ilo had great faith
In the efficacy of hard labor and solitary
confinement.

WxstttKaTos, Juno 5, 1880.
As Congress could notnrrongo matters sat
isfactorily to adjourn on the 31st of May, all
lha Republican members who possibly could
haVo left for tho Chicago convention, and
there Is a, perfect dearth of news of jiolltical
Interest. Tho attention of congressmen is
so absorbed by tho latest news from Chicago
that It is amusing to sco tho hasto with which
tlio newsboys scramble up tho steps of tho
capitol as soon as tho afternoon papers mako
their nppcarauco. Tho newsboys of Wash
ington nro composed principally of littlo
darkeys, tho worst lot of tatterdcmallans
that over was seen. Their lung capacity is
;roat that a resolution has been Introduced
Into Congress whereby tho newsboys shall
bo prevented from crying their papers on
Sundays.
Tho Christtancy scandal is onco moro to
tho front in tho form of an allowance for ali
mony of $150 per month and $300 for coun
sel fees. Tho counsel for tho cx-scnalor
from Washington, it is stated, will abandon
tho action for dlvorco sooner lhan pay tho
amount.
Anothcrscnalor from M!etilgan,Mr.Ferry,
has been brought into sotno very unpleasant
notoriety by one of tho Washington morning
papers. It stated that a 15-year-old daugh
ter of a married couplo stopping at tho samo
hotel hod cowhided tho honorable gentleman
fiom Michigan and had given him a black
eye. Tho attention of the senator to tho
mother of the young lady had been for some
time tlio subject of much comment In tho
hotel where all tho parlies wcro stopping.
It is asserted, however, that relations only
of tho most friendly character existed be
tween tho parties. Tho lady in question is
a most agrccablo and entertaining person of
considerable wealth, who has traveled ex
tensively and is provided with a fund of
valuable information. As both tho writer
of tho nrticlo ami llio family in question left
Washington immediately uftcr tho alleged
transaction, the truo iuwnrdness of tho affair
is not apparent. Senator Ferry as yet has
taken no notice of tho publication abovo re
ferred to.
Tho Sonata has confirmed, by a decisive
majority, Hon. lloraco Moynard, of Tenn.,
(now minister to Turkey), as Postmaster
Getcra,ln placo of David M. Key, wiio has
already been confirmed ns Judgo of the East
ern District of Tennessee.
Forty SiouA chieftains fiato arrived In tho
city, 111 principal object of their visit lo tho
cast being to Inspect tho Indian schools at
Hampton and Carlisle. Among the number
aro Ecd Cloud and Spotted Tall, who aro
well known lo tlio country as lively' agita
tors of the-western frontier. Spotted Tail
has five children at school at Carlisle and
expresses himself well pleased at tho pro
gress they baVo made.
To all who havo business dealings with
tho Washington departments, n book just
published by Lippincott and cctite'd ty Geo.
M. Lamphcre, of tho treasury department,
entitled the " United States Government, its
Organization and Practical Workings," will
bo found very useful. To journalists partic
ularly it will prove a very valuable assistant.
TIro is being n strong effort mado to ad
journ Congress on the 10th inst., but it does
not Imk as though it would be successful.
Thcro is not much business transacted in
cither House, tho principal interest being
centered on the Chicago convention. It is a
suljrct of no lcttfe remark that there is not
tbo least o'ppcaraneo to any excitement in
tiro capital regarding tho Republican nomi
nation. Beyond the usual gathering around
tho telegraph .offices on subh occasions, thcio
is nothing lo indicate any feeling on tho
subject now occupying the attention of the
nation. August.
