Le rm ‘mstitute of INTERESTING PROCEEDLVG The 29th anniversary and the 25th session of the American Institute of Homeopathy was commenced this morning, at 10 o’clock in Lin- | coln Hall. There were about 130 del present, representing the various parts of the Umon. A fair sprinkling of ladies—wives and daughters of the medical gentlemen—also graced the occasion. The convention was called to erder by Presi- dent J. T. Talbot, M.D., of Boston. Prayer was then offered by the Rev. Dr. Sunderland, of this city. The order —— exercises for the convention, prepared executive commit- tee, was adopted. SCORING OF THE RILL FILL MEN. Dr. Verdi, chairman ot the committee of ar- rangements, then delivered his address of wel- come. He said he welcomed the delegates in the name of the homeopathic physicians of Washington. He characterized the mission ef the visiting doctors as a high and bely one, free from all venal considerations, and untrammeled by naicow personal views. Tais city was spoken of asa fitting place for so grand gathering. He referred scathingly to the medical society of this city im 1836, whose course, he said, was arbitrary and presomptuous. Up te the 20th of April, 170, homeopathic physic.aus, however skiliful in the treatment of disease, bad ne professioval rights the law would recog: nize. Fhe proscription of the hom«opatiic doctors by the late Commissiener of Pensions, Dr. Van Arnum,was alluded to, but the soesker said that honxopathy had pro pered, like ail Fightcous canses, under proseript‘on. GROWTH OF HOMMOPATHY. _ Dr. Taivot then delivered the opening dress. He acknowledged gracefully courtesy shown the delegates by Washington, and said that headsof departments had kindly taken them by the hand, showing the growth in nuportsnce of the scence. Fiiteen years ago it was a mere stripling? and a small paiaphiet of 80 pages, contained the year's proceedings. Now it took volumes for the same purpose. Tae actica of the government has conduced to har- mony between homeopathy and its opponents. ‘The present state of the science is flourishing. ‘There are now twenty-one state societies and sixty local ones. The last year has been the most prosperous of all. The opthal- mic and surgical hospitals of New York, sre in a prosperous condition, the former having received a bequest of $100,000. A!l over the country the same prosperity is no- ticeable. California has extended an invitation to the institute to hold its next session on the Pacitic 5 m, however, who has ban- ished Baptists and hung Quakers, has acted a drama that disgraced it, in attempting to expel he ths from the Massachusetts medical society. The matter has gone to trial, but is likely to end in a tarce—the hic ' doctors occupying a position, as the er said, to be likened to a man who stirs = a hornet’s nest, and then unfortunately sits down thereon. The | Van Arnum atiair was referred — which was characterized as an attempt to induce the gov- ernment to give no recognition to homeopathy. rom Germany, the birthplace of the doctrine, the reports are encouraging. in France. Spain, Italy and Switzerland there are national insti tutions successfully established. Great pro- ess is also made in England. Flomeopathy in Great Britain has suffered a eat loss in the death of Prof. Henderson, of Eainpurgn. The speaker briefly sketched his life and career. Asia, Africa, Australia, and the Hawaiian islands, have all welcomed thenew light. The speaker referred to the removal of the barrier to woman's study and practice ot Lemeopathy as a proper step in the path of liber- ty and progress. The work of the institute since its inception was summed up. The t= est advance has been made in materia ica, and itis bere that careful research showld still be continued. Tributary to this work should be the bureau of clinical medicine. In every state there should be a chartered soc‘ety to found the political rights of its members. This comes within the scope of the bureau of organization. The speaker concluded by casting the horoscope of the tuture of the society, which he said wis bright and glorious. THE WORK OF THE SESSION. Dr. Dake, of Tenn., moved that a committee of three be appointed, to whom shail be re- ferred the president's address; to. Drs. Dake, of Nashville; Sweezy, of Springtield, Mars., and Ludiam, of Chicago, were appointed as the committee. The follewing committees were then appointed by the chair: Un Crecentials—Drs. H. M. Smith, of New York; Walter Williamson, of Philadelphia; R. C. Moffett, of Brooklyn; 'H. P. Clark, of New Bedford; J: P. Wilson, of Cleveland; R. F. Ba- ker, of Day “5 aes Jowa; J. L. Brown, of Bing- bamuton, N. ¥. Auditing Committee—Drs. L. E. Ober, of Wis.; C. B. Currier, of Vt, J. H. MeClellan:, of Pa.; Wm. F. Frecman, of N.C.; F. Wood- ruff, of Mich . Dr. Ludiam, chairman of the commiiirs on publication, made a brief report, in which he tated that the annual report of the comm 'ttee been destroyed by the Chicago fire, but much of the manuscript had been saved. The report was accepted. ‘The reports and papers in charge of the bu- rewn of materia medica, pharmacy, and prov- ings, were then presented by Dr. Uarroll Dun- ham,.ot New York, in cov equence of the ab- sence of the chairman, Dr. C. Wesselho:tt, of Boston. The following are the papers: A Frag- mentary Proving of Actea Racemosa, by A. « Cowperthwait, followed by Dr. T.

Drake, of Tennessee, offered the follow- le: ot a n- aa | ing resolution, which was adopted: se se , That the burean of materia medica be inetructed fo consider and submit, at the next mecet- ing of the Institute, « plan for the more thorough d perfect providing of remedies and notation of ) mptoms for uve under the homeopathic law, such as shall exhibit the comparative value of the varioas #3 mptems elicited, #8 well as their full range in the male ard female organisms, observed by all the im- proved meaus and tests of modern science. i ‘The paper of Dr. P! wvne, of Maine, with refer. ence to a more complete materia medica, caused considerable discussion. The paper, together with a series of resolutions adopted by the state society of Maine, were finally referred to the bureau of materia medica, with instructions to report this session. Dr. Dunbam stated that the bureau of materia medica, in its waneet the r.-olutions of Dr, Ball.ot N with reference to the use of alco- holic beverages in medical practice, considers any action on the subject inadvisable, since the tone of the resolutions is objcctionable. The committee think the Si al necessary torectify the abrse of the prescribing of alcohol, must be made in a different manner, and therefore offer the following substitute: * In vis ithe great prevalen: in the use of aleohol upon the individual ¢ of intemperance of ite disastrous effects d the community, the Ameri = ecw of tear pa mS ps donb gos pe — titioner sou! tribe alcohol without a grave " lity: that alcohol, in wh: ‘ave sense of responsibil it Seer form, should be prescribed with as much care * any powerful drug, and that the directions for i's ‘beuld be co framed as not to be interpreted as nection for excess or for th use, when thi ten shall hi continuance of ite occasion which ieduced the prescrip- A jively debate ensued, there being’ re im favor of the original resolution, which was much more stringent in its terms, den that —_ Fesnra henrd the'snateratie of m, gud classing it among the poisons. ‘A emeion was by Dr. Woodruff for its restitution, Dr. Dunbam etated that the objeetions of the bureau to the resolution of Dr. Ball were that in it was sttometed to be cones sapertans physio! uestions, most Pbsriologt or the world, Dr. Richardson, of jandon, has declared are not LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY, May 20.{ Ay Inratoatrp OLD Maw.—To-day, in the i COUNCIL House bill making an appropri. | circuit court, (Judge MacArthar,) the case of : mages Wm.

Mr. Murray offer as az amendment an adii- — section repealing the act of August 23d ast. Mr. Dickson said it was well known that last session the committee on markets were author ized to select sites, and the Governor was au- thorized to erect 2 market. It was now too late to repeal that act. The Governor has accepted the deed, and the contract was binding. There was now pending in the courts a ease besed on the action taken bythe committee, and he offered an amendment, “Provided that the Gov- ernor has not already purchased 2 site, or tha the District is not bound to pay tor a site already purchased.” Mr. Campbell said the proposed amendment would defeat the bill, forthe case might be kept in the courts for years. Mr. Bond said it was well known that this suit was brought to compel the District to take the Property. Suppose they gain the suit, according tosome.the District would be the gainers, as the square is said to be more valuable than the price stated. He denied thatthe bargain was closed. A legal contract for the sale of real es- tate should be a written one, and such a contract had not been made.

The reading and spelling were quite gcad, as also arithmetic. Primary No. 4, Miss Laura V_ Fisher, teacher, (composed of 3 pupils in “the second and first grades,) was examined by Prof. Vashon from 8.30 to 1:30 in third reader, spelling, arithmet'c and geography.
