WASHINGTON, March 3.—During &few minutes
confusion in the House this afternoon a very
important bill was rushed through without a
dissenting vote, and probably without the
owledge of five members. This bill provides
that the time for the withdrawal of whisky from
bond shall be / extended one year from April
20th, 1869. A. large and powerful lobby have
been very active to secure the passage of this
bill, but so lone as the souse was aware of the
character of the bill, it stood no chance of being
passed; and it was only gotten through this af
ternoon without the House knowing really what
bill it was.

Fortieth Congress—Third session.
lEinnwrs—Continued from the Third Edition.'
Mr. Sherman briefly explained the action of
the Committee of Conference.
Mr. Sprague, in behalf of the suffering indus
tries of the country, earnestly protested against
the passage of this bill, a measure better calcu
lated than any other yet proposed to bring about
the repudiation of the national debt, and certain
to do so if the people were true to themselves.
Mr. Hendricks did not think the bill improved
by the action of the conference committee, and
again urged the view that Congress has no right
now to change the contract originally made ba
tweet' the people and the bondholders.
Mr. Doolittle thought it exceedingly unwise to
attempt to press this bill to a vote now when less
than twenty-four hours of the session remained,
and when there was so much urgent business to'
be done. The report of the Committee of Con
ference presented really a new bill, and it could
not be properly considered In a hurry, and oven
if passed, the Prebident would not have time to
examine it and give his approval. The bill itself
be regarded as a measure for the benefit of for
eign holders of our bonds.
Mr. Corbett said there were two classes of for
eign holders ot American bonds—those who held
Confederate bonds, and those who held United
States bonds and he thought It but right
that.the legislation of Congress should protect
the interests of the latter class.

Chartres streets, near the Cathedral, known as
the "Seventh District Court Bar-room." Arthur
Guerin, the same notorious character who killed
Edmond Forrest, a colored man, in the French
market some time ego, has been arrested on the
charge of being the murderer, and the testimony
given before Coroner Avila shows pretty con
clusively that the charge is not unfounded.
From what we could learn, it seems that about
two weeks ago there was a quarrel between Hen
nessy and the accused, which had since been
smoothed over, and the parties up to the time of
the murder appeared to bo on friendly terms.
The body of the deceased was laid out in the

caused by two pistol shot wounds.
Guerin has the reputation of being a desperado,
and it is said has led a most desperate , lite. Mr.
Hennessy was a special officer on the Metropoli
tan Police, and was held in high repute by his
brother °Ulcers, besides enjoying a general repo

Several unsuccessful attempts were made by

Hereers.m.mt. kixoroAL Conratos.--The annual
commencementexercises of theflahnemannidedl
cal College; of Philadelphia, were held this after
noon, at the Academy of Music, in presence of a
large audience'; composed princlpally •of ladles.
An excellent orchestra furnished the music on
the occasion.
The exercises were opened with prayer by Rev.
B. F. Barrett.
Prof. Henry Noah Mara, M. D., then delivered
the valedictory address to the graduating class.
During his remarks he said :
"It now becomes My pleasing duty to introduce von
to the pr . feesion, to the public, and to your future
career; and it is, perhaps, the anost fitting moment to
proclaim to the profession and the public, in behalf of
your tama mater. that the diploma which you receive
this day is a certificate that you have truly and fairly
won,,and are entitled to receive their fullest coati=
done. Your labors during the past session have not
been I ight,and although your teachers have endeavored
• to make your burdens easy, they well knew that it
was only through Industry and self-sail
on your
• part, that your powers could be properly developed,
trained and fitted to grapple with those giant questions
in medicine and science which continually eoek a solu
tion. You have performed these labors manfully, and
we shall always regard with peculiar favor the class
of 180 s. a • •
"Yon are to receive this day the evidence of past
zeal in the pursuit of knowledge, and of present fit
ness to contend with the powers of disease, and let
this thought glow upon your minds, during all your
future professional life ; let it reflect as from a mirror
upon every act, that next to the worship of the Deity,
to be a priest of the holy vital dame is the most sublime
vocation of man. To occupy so exalted a pnsitlon,re-
Sects dignity upon the man, and while this is tree,the
maintainance of your own dignity should help to ans.
tame that of the profession. Dignified manners and
urbane deportment, added to scientific acquirements,
will force a respect for your profession, even among
your enemies. Dignified but kind and gentle man
ners in the sick room will win the confidence and es
teem of the patient. With the confidence that you
have the power to give back that priceless boon—
lentil, which is dearer than all the wealth of the
Western Continent—aye, that yon may save his life,he
rests all his hopes upon your efforts. Carefully watch
and guard this trust, it is a holy one; the welfare of a
human soul and body may depend upon your success."
The valedictorian spoke at considerable length
in regard to the efforts made to establish a fio
mceopathic Dispensary in this city, and said:
“St. Louis, Cleveland, and other cities boast their
Homeopathic Hospitals. The ladies of Cleveland
have recently, by means of a fair, raised $2,000, while
New York and Boston arc not inactive, the Homoe
opathists in the latter city having already accumu
lated a permanent fund of $20,000 to be devoted to
that purpose. and the ladies of Pittsburgh have, by
means of fairs, realized largo sums of money to Res-
Min a commodious 'Homoeoby the munificence

liommopathic college itillatt.world was established, a
fact which has come to the knowledge even of far off
and frigid Iceland, here, towards whose generous
hearts, all homeopathic eyes and feet are turned, that
heroin this medical Mecca of the world, there snonld
be no Homoeopathic Hospital, is a burning shame—a
monstrous dirgrace. But gentlemen, this disgrace
dues not attach so much to our citizens as to ourselves.
We have been divided, and our dissensions had well
nigh forfeited confidence in oar ability to conduct to a
successful issue so important a trust. We had no right
to expect aid from a proverbially generous commanfry,
while we were so ungenerous toward each other;
now al disensions re eale and ce rg but
wihin l our s borders.' a Ou h two d colleges h ea e eonsil s
dated,
and our physicians are now nearly a unit in the
support of the new institution. With a college whose
corporation rests ppon a solid foundation, and whose
trustees and faculty are elected for life, thus giving it
permanence and stability, there seems now nothingto
hinder the accomplishment of our highest aspirations.
We appeal then to you. lacties,in behalf of those young
men of our country, who intend to devote their lives
to the practice of our noble art, to commence this
grand work at once, so that they shall have the advan
tsges of clinical instruction in an hospital."

CLUMPY HOSPITAL OF PHILADELPHIA.-TIIS
venth annual report of the Medical Board of
this institution has been received. The repor
says "The demands for assistance from the sick
and needy have been unprecedented in the ex
perience of the Board; and the degree to which
they have been enabled to meet and satisfy these
necessities has been a source of pride and thank
fulness. The poor from every district of oar
vast city have flocked to and received' from our
hands advice and assistance without money and
without price. The very aged and infirm, alike
with the neglected little ones, have never ap
plied In vain at our doors.
"The Lying-in Department of the Hospital is so
embarrassed at present from want of means, that. if
continued open for the fature,the Board wad be obliged
to charge board for House patients, which will be
equivalent to shutting out many poor and deserving
women, in the hour of their greatest trial. The Board,
therefore, appeal most earnestly in behalf of this de
partment. Tne Hospital has been, as heretofore, un
der the charge of ten Physicians, each having their re
spective specialty, viz,: surgery, obstetrics, diseases
of women, diseases of children, diseases of eye and
ear, diseases of chest, diseases of skin, fevers and
general diseases, diseases of brain and nervous sys
tem.
In addition to the Medical Board, the Hospital le
p , ovided with a Resident and Assistant Resident
Physician and Matron—the latte• being the only per
son in any way connected with the Institution recelv
tug remuneration for services rendered. Three of the
Physicians bold daily clinics in the Hospital, at which
time all outside or Dispensary cases are attended to.
Tne total number of patients thus prescribed for and
supplied with medicine daring the past year was
8,138 Indoor or Hous e patients. 83; confinements, 1.8 ;
births, 16; deallis, S (adults, 1, children, 3.)."
The report concludes:
"The Board has exerted itself to the utmost in en
deavoring to awaken an interest in behalf of the Hos
pital, but us yet in vain. They now. through this Re
' port. make a last and most earnest appeal to the he-
Betolent not to allow a thoroughly alive and bbene
tiro:it Institution to languish and die through ne
