CONTRIBUTORIAL. BY JAH. WOOD DAVIDSON. COLUMBIA. SOUTH CABOLIHA, 27TH MAY, 1887. The Soiree?Result9. The Ladies of Trinity church realized about $GOO by their Soiree. This is for the purpose of re-fitting the church yard. Fruit. A letter from Newberry District advises us, that while the fruit was badly scarred and somewhat thinned out by the late frosts of this season, it is still in such abundance as to promise a fair, if not liberal yield of fruit this summer. Worse scared than hurt, seems to have been the rule all over the State, in this regard; although in some localities, there is said to be no fruit at all left. This we feel at liberty to doubt ?upon general principles. The Weather. Never within our memory has there been so genial and temperate a spring. It would not be so exactly true to say that "Winter lingering, chills tlie tap of May;" but the fresh breath of winter, breathed upon the usually sultry days of 31 ay, imparts to tbese days a delicious gratefulness that May rarely ever knows. We have really had no sultry weather thus far, though it is now well-nigh the first of June.? Crops are somewhat backward in consequence, and planters may be fretting about it; but, withal, it is very sweet to experience, especially so to those who have the misfortune to be afflicted with the possesion of a liver. Matrimonial. A disconsolate husband, out "West somewhere, thus gave vent to his feelings at the funeral of his wife: "I have lost cows, I've lost sheep, I've lost horses, and I've lost calves, but this is the wust of the whole loss." Whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and man was made to mourn. Since the days of that patient old bankrupt of Uz, called Job, we do not suppose a sublimer instance of self-obliviating resignation at losses has occurred than the following, which is mentioned by one of our exchanges. A devoted and affectionate, and at the same time a patient husband, on being told that this wife had lost her temper, said he was "glad of it, for it was a very bad one." An Indiana husband applied for a divorce, on the ground that his wife is an incorrigible thief. There were 804,298 marriages last year in the United States. An exchange says that "bridal envelopes," so extensively advertised for sale, means simply night gowns. For mails only, of course. A tax on babies is the newest thing from Turkey. Literary.

W been guilty of some great crime lately, else Providence would not nHow it to be visited by such a penalty as the reading of more Proverbial Philosophy. Scott'8 Monthly, for May, has just reached us, behind time as usual; but well up as to Literary matter. There are several charming sketches and a suitable melange of poetry and tales. The price is $5 a year. It is published in Atlanta. We have received a notice of a prominent publishing house in Louisville, Kentucky. ? Morton & Co. This is the only publishing establishment of a general character that exists in the South, we believe. That in Nashville is sectarian; and beyond these (since the Field and Fireside establishment went up so completely.) we are not aware that there is a single other house in the South. And Louisville is on the border of a border State, so far north, that one may about as well consider it Northern. The Reverend Henry Ward Beecher is contribu ung a story to Bonner's Ledger. It is said to br a very poor thing; but it makes the paper sell, and that's the main thing. Beecher ought to write a good story. His sister, it was who wrote Uncle Tom's Cabin; and story-telling seems to run in the family. We may expect an unusually small flood of books the coming winter. The utter prostration that characterizes business in general, in Northern cities, reaches the book business and the publishing houses are retrenching like everybody else. A TELLING SPEECH. When the vote was taken on the name assumed by the Association organized at Mechanic's Hall on Tuesday night, the large majority of the colored men present voted :'no,' because the word "Ref publican" was not inserted. Thereupon the Chairman, Mr. W. H. Tappey, addressed them in substance as follows: I notice that many of our colored friends vote no. I wish to ask you why you prefer assuming the name of a party organization existing at the North. Is it because you think they are your peculiar friends? that they will give you privileges that we are not willing to accord you? that they will take you by the hand and make you their associates in the workshop and in the parlor? If such is your belief, you are mistaken. Look at the North and see how thev treat the colored man there. Do thev permit hiui to i .i ? i i i work Dy tneir siae in me worxsnop, or waxe au equal of him in any respect ? No. Only wait until the Dutch, and the Irish, and the_ Scotch, and the Yankees come flocking to Virginia?as they will surely do, for Virginia is bound to become a great manufacturing State?and then you will sec how soon they will drive you from the workshop and from every lucrative or respectable employment You will wish then, that you had listened to the sober counsel of the Southern men, among whom you have been raised, with whom you have played m childhood, and by whose side you have toiled in the field and in the workshop and drank water from the same bucket. Then, when it is too late, you will discover that your only true friends were a the Southern men whom you have known all your y lives; and not the stranger who comes amongst you V to win your confidence and then "use you for the f advancement of his own personal and selfish ends.'' At the conclusion of this telling little speech, not another Republican dared to open his lips.? Their leader looked crest-fallen, and the colored men looked as if they believed that the sincere and heartfelt utterances of the speaker were more than half true.?I\tirsburg Index. PUBLIC MEETINGS. The Aberdeen (Miss.) Examiner is down on holding public meetings at this time for the discussion of matters pertaining to politics. It says, with much force: We are opposed to these public gatherings at the present time. We are opposed to them, because we think that the hour is for earnest thought, and not for debate; the hour is for study and arguseved scrutiny of the political horizon, and not for windy and excited harangues. We are opposed to them, because starvation stares our people in the face; because there is no com in our cribs; because corn is one dollar and ten cents a bushel in St Louis, the Egypt of the land, and is still advancing ; and because the season has thus far been unpropitious, and thought and labor should not be diverted from the fields. We are opposed to them because we believe that, at the present moment, the most perfect amity exists among all classes of our citizens, and will exist until crimination and recrimination from the rostrum divides them. Let dignity prevail. JSo matter what a man's views or politics may be, or may have been, there can be no necessity for his crawling on his belly and eating dirt; nothing can be gained by it.? Baseness wields no influence, but manliness moves the mob and leavens the mass. If you have concessions to make, make them gracefully; admit the necessity, yield to it, if you will, but do not show your contempt for God's laws, and the intelligence of those who know you, by professing love for the task that necessity assigns you. Tire Failure of Phaser, Tkenholm & Co.? The Treasury Department yesterday received information by telegraph of the failure of the firm of Fraser, Trenholm & Co., of Liverpool, who, during the rebellion, were the European agents of the socalled Confederate States, and who, at the close of war, held, by virtue of such agency, a large amount of property belonging to the Confederate Government, including vessels, munitions of war, cotton, &c. For the recovery of this property, the State Department instituted suits in the English Courts, said suits now remaining unsettled. It is understood that the Government will incur no loss by the failure of the firm, it being fully secured by bond: covering the amount of the claims?several mil, lions of dollars.? Washington Chronicle. A THE HOUSE OF COMMONS. This assembly is the model of all the legislative and deliberative assemblies in the world. The rules usually adopted for the government of such Bodies are, for the most part copied, with some alterations, from those of the British Parliament, and therefore all rules for conducting public debates have acquired the name of "parliamentary rules." In view of these facts, the following description of some of its customs, taken from a Loudon letter, possesses considerable interest. The House of Commons is composed of 635.? By a strange oversight, the hall will not hold more than half the members. The members draw seats for one night, and that after prayers. The drawing consists of a member's putting his card in a little groove on the back of the bench. Those who cannot get seats below have to go into the gallery, and those who cannot sit have to stand. The House has a literal bar, below which is the Peers' seat, and no Peer of the realm is allowed on the floor of the House of Commons. While the House of Lords has a gallery for ladies, and its debates are attended bv ladies of quality as well as others, the House of Commons will not allow a lady within its walls. Above the reporters' seat and behind the Speaker, is a caged closet, capable of holding sixteen persons, with an iron grating, not unlike a nunnery; here is found the accommodation for ladies connected with the House. Within this den and behind the grating, having obtained a written permission from the Speaker, which is regarded as t\ nwm'laflfft lorli'oc Clf Qllfl llOnr fllA rlnKjltpti. M UllVUgjjW^ IMVUVO Oiv utm uvwi vuv v?vw??vv, although they are invisible to the debaters. The reason given for this custom is omnipotent in this country; it is an old custom. The great hall of William Rufus, known as Westminster Hall, in which the mightiest events of the nation have transpired, is now only a vestibule to the House of Commons. The Speaker embodies the dignity of the House. He is chosen for life. He usually serves for about six years, then takes a pension, and goes into the House of Lords. He has a salary of $35,000 per annum. He occupies a sumptuous house, most magnificently furnished at the expense of the nation. The plate belongingto the house, with which he gives ceremonial dinners, cost the nation $850,000. Every night, on the opening of the House, crowds assemble to witness tne procession from his house to the chair. The Speaker wears his wig and robes. The huge mace, gold gilt, as much as a man can lift, is borne before him. The state sword?double handed, after the fashion of Richard the Lion Heart, over six .feet long, gilt scabbard and jewelled hilt?is borne by his sword-bearer. A man behind, holding his train, aqd achaplain in full rig. complete the procession. A bedizened official precedes the party, crying out, "Oyez! oyez! make way for the honorable Speaker ! All fall back and uncover while he enters and takes his seat Few are present at prayers. There is an understanding that no business shall be done for the first half hour. This gives time for prayers inside, aiftl talk out Members sit with their hats on, unless they address the chair or move from their seats. An outsider has no chance to speak. The ministerial leader on one side, and the leader of the opposition on the other, send a list to the Speaker each evening. No other member will be seen. The division of the House is very curious. It operates frequently like a snap judgment. A call is made for a division. A three-minute glass in front of the Speaker is immediately turned. When the sands run out the doors are closed, and no one is admitted until the vote is taken. Members are in all sorts of places?in the library, in the smoking-room, in the eating-room, in the lobbies, in the committee rooms. To reach these absent ones and get them in the House within three minutes, is often a difficult task. There arc thirty-six bells, leading from the House of Commons to all parts of the great building. Immediately on the call for a division, these bells are rung. Whippers-in are busj' and men scramble from all imaginable places to get inside the House before the three minutes mi 1 ?* i- : LI- rrL- ? expire. une ruie is uieiuruuie. jl uu uuuia arc closed promptly on the second. Tlie Queen herself could not get in. Men file out from different ends of the room, go through different passages, have their names written twice, and come back by different doors. The speaking in the House is as bad as can be Staagined. The utterances are indistinct, the hesii^tion is painful, and such a thing as oratory is un^.noira. Gladstone is the best speaker in the House. He is a tall, slim, pleasant-looking man, with a ringing voice. But ne stands close to the table, grasps it with both hands, and teeters on his toes while ne speaks. Disraeli has a good voice, but is slow and prosv on ordinary occasions. He is a small, dark-complexioned, Jewish-looking man, seldom looks at one in the face, and glides rather than walks into his seat, as if he did not wish anyone to know that he had come. John Bright is a short, thiek-set, chubby-looking Englishman; who leads the democracy, and with the people, is the most popular orator in England. He always sits on the Liberal side, but below the gangway, which indicates that he is at liberty to vote with or against the Liberals as he pleases. The reporters' seat is behind the Speaker, the men occupying the gallery, and they are relieved every ten minutes by new reporters. No man besides them is allowed to make a pencil note even in the House. Vigilant eyes are upon every comer. If a man takes a pencil out to make a mark or write in a book, he is instantly warned to desist, or he will be removed from the House. Important Decision.?His Honor Judge Muuro delivered his opinion yesterday in the case of the First National Bank and People's National Bank against Fleetwood Lanneau, Esq., Tax Collector. The case involved the question of the constitutionality and legality of the State tax imposed by the Acts" of the last General Assembly on the gross profits of the National Banks. The payment of the tax was resisted by the Banks, on the ground that it conflicted with the Constitution of the United States aud the Acts of Congress of the U. States, organizing National Bank Associations. The case was argued fully and elaborately by the ! Hon. Henry Buist, Solicitor for the First National Bank of Charleston, Hon. Charles H. Simonton, Solicitor for the People's National Bank, and by the Attorney-General. Isaac W. Hayne, Esq., iu behalf of the Tax Collector and the State. After assigning at length the reasons for his opinion, Judge Munro granted the following Order in each case: "The suggestion in this case having been read, and after argument of counsel thereupon, it is ordered that a writ prohibition do issue from this Court, to be directed to Fleetwood Lanneau, Esq.. Tax Collector of the Parishes of St Phillip's and St. Michael's, in the said State, commanding and renuiriner him forthwith to desist r.nd forbear from levying and collecting the tax imposed by the Act of the General Assembly, mentioned in the said suggestion, and therein complained of. [SignedJ ... K. MUNRO. The question raised in this case is of great interest and vitality to the banks, and the Act of Congress organizing them was fully sustained by the Judge.?Charleston Courier. The Subjugation op Steam.?The Newark Journal speaks of a new invention, to be applied to steam engines, called "Stuckenrath's Improved Cut-off," which it is claimed saves 25 per cent, in fuel, over any previous invention. The Journal says: "It consists of an attachment to a steam engine, which is designed to operate the "cut-off," and, at the same time, accurately indicate the number of 'horse-power'# exerted by the engine, while wholly doing away with the throttle valve. The cut-off is variable and self-adjusting, and is worked bv the main valve, and is so constructed as to do away with the usual eccentric, as well as the rods, straps, links and cranks, by which the cut-off is ordinarily operated. When we examined the engine, the entire steam generated was pouring into the steam chest, while the speed of the engine was not in the least accelerated. Only enough steam to carry its burden was employed; and when its labors were increased by throwing on additional belts, it took the additional steam required and accomplished its ' -- - 1 -pk/l m oil added duty, "luce a tmng 01 me. xae uuiy uiai%c perceptible was in the position of the finger on the dial, which at once indicated the additional burden which the engine had been called upon to bear." Tiie Death Sentence.?The following is the sentence pronounced upon the Fenian prisoners who have been on trial at Dublin for the crime of high treason. The Lord Chief Justice assumed the black cap, and said: "The sentence is, that you and each of you shall be taken from where you now stand to the place from whence you came, and that, on Wednesday, the 26th of May, you be drawn on a hnrdle to the ! place of execution, and that there you and each of you shall be hanged by the neck until you arc dead; aud that afterwards your heads be severed from ! your bodies, and the body of each of you, divided i into four quarters, shall be disposed of as her Ma tv or her Executive shall think fit and proper.? And may the Lord have mercy on your souls!'' The Proprieties of Life.?The New York Journal of Commerce, notes as one of the most striking peculiarities of the period of passion and excitement through which the nation has passed, the reign of billingsgate, the use of nicknames, and bad language, being not only frequent with those claiming respectability, but so common in discussing certain subjects, that the exceptions arc remarkable. The editor says : The subject is brought to mind just now by the fact that the newspapers, without exceptions, yesterday spoke of "Mr. Jefferson Davis," calling him by his plain name, in ordinary'proper language. Perhaps some readers hereof will be surprised to learn that only three years ago; we received a sharp scolding from a prominent city cotcmporary, for using precisely the same name ; and it was represented as a gross offence to the public to call nim anything but "Jeff." This is no joke. Ourcotemporaiy yesterday used the phraseology of ordinary respectable society. Passion is past. Decency and propriety resume their sway. It never harms a man to call him by a nickname, and it never benefits a cause to sustain it by indecorous and undignified language. Yet there was a time, only a few months ago, when the notion prevailed very extensively that courteous and civilized language, applied to a rebel, was an evidence of sympathy with rebellion. There were some persons weak euough to be influenced by the notion, and who 11 1 x- 1 i.1 Ti were actually uiraiu 10 uu geuucmuu. jll wjw uiuy an instance of the effect of passion on the public mind, resulting in bad influences on social life and common civilization. Defining ins Position.?The "Fat Contributor," while at Nashville recently, was requested to define his position on politics, which he did in a letter to "John Happy," of the Nashville Banner, as follows: "I am aware of the necessity of knowing just where a man stands in these times which try men's soles?as well as the upper leather. To begin with, I am an Old Heniy Clay Whig, of the Polk School. I believed in the Hard Cider Platform of 1840, during which I cast a somewhat colored vote for Jackson. I voted against the assassination of Lincoln, and am in favor of the immediate impeachment of Jefferson Davis. I favored the Maine Law until they fired on our flag, together with several of our flagstones, when I went in for a vigorous prosecution of peace. I am in favor of woman's rights, if it is a good looking woman and she writes to mo. I don't know much about the Monroe Doctrine, and as for horse doctorin<71 don't know anything at all. I wouldn't vote to oblige a Mormon to have more than one wife, and am opr)sed to introducing cholera into the Territories. go in for a tax on waterfalls, and am willing to allow chignons a representation in Congress on the basis of population. Finally, I am in favor of allowing the negro to vote in the South?it is the only way to make treason ordoroiu.'' Gold Contracts no More than Greenbacks. ?The Charleston Courier thus states the recent decision of the Supreme Court of the United States on these questions: We recently alluded to the important question pending in reference to a true construction of the Legal Tender Act The Supreme Court has announced its decision. This is binding upon all States and tribunals. It is a definite and final construction. And this has established two points.? First, that the Legal Tender Act applies to contracts made prior to, as well as subsequent to its passage. And, secondly, that contracts in gold, or the deposit with bankers of gold, constitutes a mere debt, which can be .discharged by the payment of legal tender notes. In the case before the Court, the deposit in gold was made in 1861. The Legal Tender Act was not passed until 1862. And in May, 1867, it is held that the depositor is bound to take United Qlofno Troommr nnfuc fnr liic frnlH UUtV&O X1VUOUIJ JAVLISM AVA **?w Qv>v.. i Northern Men in the Southern States.? "Mack," of the Cincinnati Commercial, has been traveling through the Southern States lately, and gives the following opinion as to the treatment of Northern men there: "I have travelled through a good portion of the South since I started out three weeks ago, and have yet to learn the first case in which a Northern man has been maltreated, on account of his political sentiments in the section from which he nailed. I have made a great many inquiries, a"nd if anything of the kind liad occurred recently in the section through which I have passed, I should probably have heard of it. I have not yet been in a city or town which Charles Sumner or Wendell Phillips might not visit with perfect safety to themselves, and, I think, much to their enlightenment, respecting the habits and manners of people whom they denounce without knowing."

THE Philadelphia University of Medicine and Surgery was organized in 1848. Chartered by the Legislature, February 26,1853. Name ohanged i by a legislative enactment to the Eclectic Medical College of Philadelphia in 1860. In 1863 it purchased the Pennsylvania Medical College, established in 1842, ana the Philadelphia Medical College, which had previously been merged into the | Pennsylvania Medical College. In 1864 it purchased the Penn Medical University. The Trustees of the separate schools united, petitioned, and | obtained a special act of the Legislature, consoli. dating these institutions and changing their names , to that of the Philadelphia University of Medicine . and Surgeiy, March 16, 1865. All these various ' acts are published in the statutes of Pennsylvania. The cost of the building and museum was over one hundred thousand dollars. It will be observ. ed that the University, as now organized, is the legal repre8ontativer~0f the four Medical Colleges ' that it has absorbed. It is a liberal school of med1 icine, confined to no dogma, nor attached to any medical clique; but embraces in its teachings ev erything of value to the profession, i Session*.?It has two full sessions each year, i commencing on the 1st of October, and continui ing until the 1st of January as its first session, and ' from the 1st of January to the 1st of April as its ' second; the two constituting one foil course of ' lectures. It has also a summer sessior ommeni cing the 1st of April and continuing unti* August for the preparatory branches, such as Latin, Greek, Mathejnatlcst Botany, Zoology, Chemistry, Anat omy, Physiology, etc. . Tickets.?Tickets to the full course of lectures $120, or $60 for each session. For the summer or . preparatory course $25. Graduating fee $30. To . aid young men of moderate means, tne University has issued five hundredscholarships, which are sold to first course students, for $75, and to second | course students and clergymen for $50. each oon' stituting the holder a life member, with the pern petual privileges of the lectures, and all the teachings of the school. The only additional fees are a " yearly dissecting and matriculating ticket, each of i which is $5. The Advantages of Scholarships.?The student holdings scholarship can enter the College at any time during the year, attend as long as he chooses, and re-enter the institution as frequently as desired. ' It require* no previous reading or study to enter 1 the University on scholarships, hence, all private i tuition fees are saved. Students, by holding scholarships, can prosecute - other business a part of the time. The candidate for graduation can present himi self at any time, and receive his degree as soon aa r qualified. 1 In cose a student should hold a scholarship and ^ not be able to attend lectures, it can be transferred , to another, thus preventing any loss. Parents, guardians, or mends of students wishing to purchase scholarships for them a year or more before their attendance at the University, can socure them by advancing one-half the price, " and paying the balance when the student enters. Physicians and benevolent men can bestow great I benefit upon poor youngmen, by presenting them a scholarship, and thus enabling them to obtain an t honorable profession. . The Faculty embraces seventeen eminent phyi siciansand surgeons. -The University has asso* . dated with it a large hospital clinic, where every . form of medical and surgical disease is operated i on and treated in the presence of the class. 1 College Building.?The College building, located in Ninth Street, south of Walnut, Ik-the finest in the rity.
