"Does the gentleman, "said the speaker, desire tne reading ot names." "I do," was Mr. McMillan's response and the seiikcr ordered that to be done. The clerk started of) again and rushed through the names at railroad ecd. The journal embraced a full stenographic report ol the Sieaker's explanation yes terday in reply to Mr. llynum's question ol ersiiiial privilege, including points ot L-cnernl applause, etc. 1 tic reading was closed at 12.211; and instantly Mr. -Springer was on his leet with a motion to correct the journal. Mr. McKinley was not so precinilnte, but he got up slowly and moved that the journal lie approved, calling for the previous question on that motion the six-nkcr recognized Mr. McKinlcv's mo tion entirely ignoring Mr. Springer. Hut Mr. Springer was not to be ignored in that wnv. anil he imnieiliiitelv made motion to adjourn, in view of the tact, he snid, that we have no rules. "The gentleman from llliunois." said I be speaker blandly, "i out of order in making any remarks on a motion to ad journ. The question now is, shall the House atlintirn f He put the question to the house, but several democrats demanded the yens and nnvs and that interesting exercise was proceeded with. The democrats did not retrain Irom voting, and conse quently (t was not necessary for the siwakcr to keep his little memorandum ol members present and not voting. Al ter the roll cull was completed thr speaker was about to announce the re sult, hut was stopieu by a demand from .Mr. McMillan that a recapitulation ol the vote be rend. That also Helped to consume time, and it was one bv the clock when the result was announced which was, yens, 135; nays, 158; so the House retusea to aaiourn. I he next step in the procedure was the can lor tne previous question on .Mr McKiuley's motion to approve the jour nal of yesterday. The yeas and nays were demanded by Mr. McMillan and were ordered. This time the democrats did refrain from voting, and it became necessary for the speaker to note thr names of those who were present and de clined to vote. As the speaker arose to announce thr result of the vote Mr. Dockery asked whether it was not proper to have the pairs announced. The siwnker replied that it would lie pi'oier if time permitted, hut he declined to announce them and proceeded to nunie as present and refusing to vote: Messrs. Allen of Mississippi, Andrew ol Massachusetts, Hunklieail, Illnnil, Breck cnritlgeof Arkansas, Carlisle, Carulll, Chipniun, Clements, Complon, Covert, Cniin, Crisp, Cullierson, Dockery, lid niiimla, Uiilor.lirisseiihnuer, Hare, Hemp hill, Ilulmnii, Hooker, Kilgore, I.nnhnin, Maish, Mausur, Martin of Texas, Mc Adoo, McMillnn, McKne, Outhwaite, Se uey, Spiuola, Springer, Slockrtnlc and Stone of Kentucky, "In addition toe speaker continued, "the following it the vote: yeas, llil , nnys, 0. "There being a constitutional quorum present, the chairman declares that the previous question ia ordered. The question is now on the motion that the journal of yesterday be approved." Mr. Springer again interposed bis mo tion to adjourn, and persisted in inter rupting, but was entirely ignored by the sinker, who again declared the question to Ik' on Mr. Mckinley's motion to ap prove the journal. Mr. Holmun demanded the yeas and nays, which were ordered, the same pcr I'ormiiiicr which was in the Inst vote being repeated. The Sienker read tlicimincsof members present and refusing to vote, and added, "Yeas, 1(3(1; naysO." The siieaker The journal i upproved. Mr. Kowell called up the Smith-Jnrk-sun election case from the Fourth West Virginia district and Mr. Crisp raised the (Miration of consideration. The speaker declined to entertain the question of con sideration and Mr. Crisp appealed. The speaker The chair declines to en tertain the appeal, Mr. Crisp Then, under protest, I will proceed. Mr. Crisp offered as a substitute for the resolutions of the tnujurilv of the election committee those of the minority declaring that Mr. Smith had not la-en elected Irom the Fourth district of West Virginia, and that Mr, Jackson had lircu anil was entitled to retain bis seat. Ik went on to say that his side of the house felt it right and proper to enter a protest against being required to act on the con tested election case in the absence ( withiu the meaning of the consticiitinn) of u quorum of the bouse. He spoke for some time nf the dilatory fiction of the committee on rules and of how it hnd been affected bv Carlisle's ill ness, but now he was ready the commit tee would not meet. Finally he pro ceeded with an argument on the elec tion case. Mr. Crisp was followed by Mr. Kowell and he in turn was followed by O'l'er rail. The latter spoke only of the Smith- Jackson case and desired a portion of the pinned record. 1 lie speaker would not iermit and a lively debate Ibllowed. O'Ferrall declared that he would rend it whether permitted by the chair or not, and would but for the confusion and excitement. He finally took his seat, but will speak Monday. The house ad journed.

GRANT, Ph.G., Of Philadelphia CoUcgc of Pharmacy, Apothecary, 14 Soutn Main St. The Old Year bat draw a to a cote, urn! with the beginning of the New Year wt wish to thank the public for their patronage and recognition of our efforts to do our full duty. We are fully ton- tciuu that it it to them that wt owe the unexpected iucceta of toe 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 Hie such as to cause our customers to hnt confidence in ut and attract those who are cautious in dealing with any Pharmacist until they have become falty assured of the nature and txttnt of bis business principles. In out deatingwYlA' the public we realise that the most scru pulous cart und honesty are paramount importance. If these are virtues in all ordinary business transactions, tbey become sacred duties ia Pharmacy, and without them no one can be a true Pbar- st. The health, maybe the life, or (Aose dealing with the Apothecary de pends upon them. We consider k our most sacred duty to shun adulterations und spoiled as well as inferior drugs. They constitute an evil Irom which Pbar- nacy sutlers no less than the public. The :vil is nut 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 doubtless continue as long at there may be men with conceptions of business so vague that they expect to purchase gold for the money ralue of dross. There are no other moral principles required for transacting a Pharmaceutical business than are necessary for any other business. I nwavertng integrity that remains unin fluenced by the visions of gold along the road of questionable or deceitful prac tices is the only foundation for success that is worthy the name; it is so in every pursuit, and more particularly in Pharmacy, whereas a mutter of neces sity it must be combined with constant vigilance in all directions, so as to secure all possible safeguards. These are the principles which we ba re endeavored to live up to, and to which we trust our increasing success is due. He hope our former pations will show the same kindness ton aid 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.
