There were some twenty-five or thirty representative business and professional men present, and en Judge Patterson's motion His Hener Mayer Jehn T. Mac Gonigle presided, and stated the object of the meeting. Mr. Walter KieiTer was made secretary. The mayor read a list of some subscrip tions that had been handed in prier te the convening of the meeting, and quite a number of the persons present announced their subscription in amounts running from $30 down until the whole amount subscribed reached nearly $300. The following committees were then appointed te canvass their respective wards en Monday, reporting the amount raised and turning in the money te the mayor by 2:30 p. m. se that a draft for. the whole Hum subscribed by that time could be at once forwarded te the proper authorities in charge of the relief measures : First ward S.

In accordance with a resolution passed by the meeting, the pastors of the city churches announced from their pulpits the appointment of this committee and urged their people te make liberal response te its appeals. Seme discussion was had as te the pro priety of collecting feed and clothing. And it was finally agreed for the present te limit the work te the prompt raising of money, as the mere expeditious means of relief. Tlie mayor was appointed te act as treasurer of the fund, te receive and for ward the contributions. Tlie meeting after some fin ther discus sion adjourned. TIiu Werk e! tliu Committees. The committeemen, upon being notified of their appointment, went promptly te work, and during this forenoon have pretty thoroughly canvassed the city. We publish acknowledgement of all the subscriptions received from all sources by the mayor up te :5 p. m. te-day. These paiil in at the meeting of Saturday eveniug and prier te it are, each and all, assigned te the respective wards in which the donors rcMile. Of course, it has been impossible in the short time already afforded te have seen everybody who is disposed te give te this worthy object, and the committeemen are still taking subscriptions. All persons dispened te contribute, who have net yet been called upon, may hand their sub scriptions te the mayor or te airy one of the committee. They will be promptly acknowledged in these columns and will be forwarded at once. The Pennsylvania railroad company having agreed te forward free of charge all contributions in kind, arrangements will doubtless seen be made te receive, and pack a car lead of previsions, clothing, t'cc, in Lancaster.

It is impossible at our hour of going te press te get returns from all the commit tees and several wards have as yet made no return, but the committees are doing geed work, and by te-morrow the com plete list of subscribers can be published. The Second ward raises $700 alone, and the Sixth nearly $30J. The Third has about $300, and the First, Fourth and Fifth will run from $150 te $230. In all it is estimated that Lancaster city, by te-morrow neon, will have rahed the magniticcut sum of $2,300. Meanwhile subscriptions can be left with the mayor or any member of the com mittee.

We desire 15 call attention te our FL'ATWRB, SPOONS, FORKS, In addition t a full stock et the celebrated Rogers Bro.'sgeods, we have the exclusive sale in this city el the electro-plated ware el the Gerham Manufacturing Company. These are the best finished and most durable in the market, and in recommending them te the trade this company (whose representations are always reliable) claim ler them the following merits : " Th base of th Gerham electro-plate is of nickel silver. The silver-plated wares made upon this base combine all the excellence of the solid silver goods except the intrinsic value of the silver itself. One of the remarkable .features of the preces of electro-plating is perfect accu racy and delicacy with which the finest line of the engraving or chasing traced en the surface of the nickel bass is reproduced en the surface of the silver coating. Thus all the excellence of workmanship which has earned for the company its reputation as makers et sterling silver goods is made tributary te the production of unsurpassed electro-plate. The quantity of pure silver deposited en the finely finished base exceeds that upon the best of foreign plate. This ware would be excellent and take a line polish without a coating et silver, yet upon it is laid a silver surface which will if net abused last mere than a generation. The object is te produce plated ware which shall have all the beauty of the solid wares. This high grade et ware is un distingulshable from work in Sterling silver. Its pattern, ornaments and workmanship are made equal te these for which the Company's Sterling Silverware bus been se highly com mended. Te these conditions is added the undeilnable air or style which distinguishes the genuine in everything trein the work et imitators and which naturally transfers itself from the Sterling te the plated ware." The price of these goods is only a trifle higher than 'some of lie inferior productions. H. Z. RHOADS & BRO., Jewelers, Ne. 4 "West King Street, Lancaster. Fights, Sic. A fight occurred at the corner of Vine and Duke streets, and another en North Queen street, above Walnut, while an in teresting scrimmage in Centre square, in front of the Intelligencer office, drew a large crowd about three o'clock this after noon.

Reddig, of Reamstewu, Lan caster county, was married te Miss Kate E. Frcymeyer, of Reading, by Rev. S. S. Henry, of Ilinklctewn. The groom is a young business man of Reamstown, and the bride formerly resided in Lancaster county. Mr. Aannnw Wade, Plymouth, Ind., informs us that St. Jacob's '. 1 considered an infalli ble remedy. A "I r. iQsmun called it the best remedy in the market, and his neighbor, Mr. Ames, was cured by its use of Rheumatism in the arm. Anether man in the same city, who sullered greatly with pains in the side, could get no relief until he applied St. Jacob's Oil, which cured him. The New Patent Cleck. The improvements which have been made during the past few years in the perfection of timekeepers have revolutionized the business in clocks and watches. Watches are new made with a degree et perfectness never attained until recently and tlie new methods of manu facture have reduced the cost se that every body may carry an accurate watch. In clocks the recent improvements give a far better class of movement than et old mid at less price. One of the most novel improvements in clocks is that known as the Stein Winder." This ingenious invention Is patented by Messrs. Bailey, Banks & Biddle, of Philadelphia, who are finding it as popular as it is valuable. The elegant decoration of some of the new clocks is attractive and tastelul, and yet docs net add greatly te the expense, of the clocks. As every individual who is of any account new carries a geed watch, se every home in habited by people of geed taste ought te have at least one beautiful and reliable clock. ltd&w Meney and Music.

Slaymaker, Agent for Keigart'w Old Wine Stere, by 11 prominent practising physi cian et this county, who has extensively used the Brandy referred te In his regular practice. It is commended te the attention et tlie-t y I' ll icted with Indigestion and Dyspepsia. BRANDY AS A MEDICINE. This new much abused Alcoholic Stimulant was never intended as 11 beverage, but te be used as a medicine of great potency in the cu re of some of the destructive diseases which sweep away their annual thousand of victims. With a purely philanthropic motive we pre sent te the favorable notice et Invalids espe cially these alUicted with that miserable dis ease Dyspepsia, a specific remedy, which is nothing mere or less than Brandy. The aged, with teeblc appetite and mere or less debility, will find this simple medicine, when used properly, A Sovereign Remedy or all their ills and aches. Be it, however strictly understood that we prescribe ami use but one article, and that is REIGART'S OLD BRANDY, Sold by our enterprising young friend, II. K SLAYMAKER. This Brandy has steed the test for years, and has never failed, as far as our experience extends, and we therefore give it the pruterence ever all ether Brandies, no matter with hew manyjaw-breaking-Freneh titles they are branded. One-fourth of the money that is yearly thrown away en various Impotent dyspepsia specifics would siiftlee te buy all the Brandy te cure any such case or cases. In proof of the curative powers et Reigart's Old Brandy, In cases et Dyspepsia, we can summon nuui bers of witnesses one case in particular wa cite: A hard-working farmer bad been aillictcd with an exhaustive Dyspepsia ler a number of years; his stomach would reject almost every kind of feed; he had sour eructatiens con stantly ue appetite in fact, he was obliged te restrict liis diet te crackers and stale bread, and as a beverage he used McUrann's Reet Beer. He is a Methodist, and then, as new, S reached at times, and in his discourses often eclaimed earnestly against all kinds of wtreng drink. When advised te try Reigart's Old Brandy, In his case, be looked up with astonishment, but after hearing of Its wonderful eirects iu the cases of some of his near acquaintances, he at last consented te fellow our advice. He used the Brandy faithfully and steadily; tlie first bottle giving him an appetite, and before the second was taken he was a sound uian.with a stomach capable of digesting anything which he chose te cat. He still keeps it and uses a lit tle occasionally; and since lie has this medi cine he has been of very little pecuniary bene fit te the doctor. A Piiactisine Physiciah. H. E.
