unotlier prolmcicil HtniL'KH' in the notisc
cnmmittcc on the V orltl 8 rnir to-tlnv
out of which the New York party cttme
victorious. The bnttle Ihkhii as goon n
the siih-coinniittce renortetl tn the lull
committee that it did not recommend
either of the propositions referred to it
nnd asked iiermission to frame a hill pro-
vidiiiL' for the Inir in HiV2 nnd lenvini!
the (ucstii)ii of its site for future settle
ment, I Ins was hnnlly ndoptcn, ntte
u lively discussion. Mr. Rowden. of Vir-
L'inin, wns present for thclirst time. Mr.
npriiificr ussniled the report, chnrRinj,'
tnnt the committee vrns violutinc the
spirit of instructions by the house, which
incunt that the resolution providing tor
the selection nt a site should be reported
dock in three anvs.
Me repented what he hnd already said
touching the dimmers of delays, faking
up n New York newspniier he rend Irom
an account ot the proceedmi;s ot the lee
islatiire nt Albany yesterday, remarks to
the effect that iill of the money lor the
lainvonld be furnished by New York
Oitv: that the New York representa'
tives were waiting action to hear from
the legislature; that Mr. I-lower and Mr
Icldeii had telecruolied to net nt once
and that delay meant danger nnd loss ot
the lair to New York. .Mr. hprniL'er
said that the committee was asked to
sit here and do nothing until the New
ork legislature had leisurely acted upon
the proposition. When that was for
mulated, the New York representatives
were to go into the house and assert
that New York asked no financial aid
from the government and thus use theif
htteen million dollar tund as Columliia to
blow up her cities. lie wns surprised to
see the representatives ot these other
cities surrendering their prospects and
acquiescing in that program.
.Mr. I-lower, in reply, said that Air,
Springer had been taunting the commit'
tee with delay; but it might pay tu wail
iiitccn nays ll me government, saveti u
million dollars n day, us it would if the
legislature acted favnruhlv upon the bill
lie said that Mr. Howdcn had just come
from a sick lied, and that Mr. Hatch, an
other member of the committee, was still
sick. It was not tair to the committee
to expect it to rush along with so impor
tant u matter until all ot the nicuilicrf
were acquainted with the subject. Other
nieniiKTH ot the committee should at
least have the opportunity. Mr. Hill had
had as a member nf the committee on
foreign affairs tn study the subject In
jure undertaking to report the plan to
the house, and they should not lie de
prived ot that right liv yielding tu the de
sires ot one city, i lucagn. it was proHT
and prudent that the house should de
cide that there would lie n tair liclore an
attempt was made tu fix the site. Other
wise, alter naming t lie site, malcontents
might succeed in defeating the main prop
osition and there would uc nu lair.
Mr. Hill replied brictlr, urging prompt
action. Air. nowdcii tiiougut mat tie
hud all the information necessary fur his
guidance mid to the delight ot the Chi
cago men, he ranged on their side ami
moved as a substitute tor a reixirt ut the
sub-committee the Springer resolution,
which provide for a ballot in the house
next Monday. Again the chairman
narrow ly escaped committing himself by
voting. The vote taken would hae re
sulted in a tic, 3 to 3, necessitating his
casting the dividing vote, lint just at this
moment Mr. lleldcn, who Hnd been no
sent, walked in and enst his vote against
Mr. Ilowdeu s motion, and tliechuir was
elieved of the necessity for voting.
'indiug themselves in the minority, the
New York men then pressed fur action
upon the sub-committee's report and it
was adiileil, Hill Springer and How den
utiug against it.
The committee then adjourned subject
to u cull of the chairman, which will be
issued when the sub-comniittce has
framril its hill. Mr. Hitt has signified
an intention to introduce in the house
resolutions providing for the selection ol
the site by ballot, and instructing the
onimiltee, which he will ask tu nave
increased tu thirteen members, to report
within three days.

wnys. that ns colored men thev have the
right to meet in conference for their nd

MISCELLANEOUS.
J. S. GRANT. Ph. G.,
ui i-niiauetpnia college of Pharmacy,
Apothecary, 34 South Main St.
The Old Year lias drawn to a close,
and with the beginning of the New Year
we wish to thank the public for their
imtronuge and recognition of our efforts
to do our full duty. We are fully con
scious thut it is to them that we owe the
unexiKcted success of the past year, in
which our business has been more than
doubled, and we can only regard it as a
new evidence that our business maxims
ate such as to cause our customers to
have confidence in us and attract those
who are cautious in dealing with any
Pharmacist until they have become fully
assured of the nature and extent of his
business principles. In out dealing with
the public we realize that the most scru
pulous care and honesty are paramount
in importance. If these are virtues in
till ordinary business transactions, they
become sacred duties in Pharmacy, and
without them no one can be a true Phar
macist. The health, maybe the lite, 01
those dialing with the Apothecary de-
IkihIs upon them. He consider it our
must sncred duty to shun adulterations
nnd spoiled as well as interior drugs.
They constitute an evil from whichPhar-
macy sutlers no less than the public. The
evil is not a new one, inaugurated in late
years: it has existed as long as there
were men whose cupidity was stronger
than their sense of justice, and it will
'loubtless continue as long as there may
be men with conceptions of business so
vague lhat they expect to purchase gold
for the money value of dross. There are
no other moral principles required for
transacting a Pharmaceutical business
than are necessary for any other business.
Unwavering integrity that remains unin
fluenced by the visions of gold along the
road of ipiestioimble or deceitful prac
tices is the only foundation for success
that is worthy the name; it is so in
every pursuit, and mure particularly in
Pharmacy, where as a matter of neces
sity it must be combined with constant
vigilance in all directions, so as to secure
all possible safegunrtls.
These are the principles which we have
ndcavored to live up to, und to which
we trust our increasing success is due.
We hope our former nations will show
the same kindness towatd us in the fu
ture that they have in the past, knowing
that no action ol ours will ever make
them regret a continuance ol their fa
vors. Yours truly,
J. S. CSKAXT, Ph. G., Pharmacist,
