THE TARIFF FIGHT TO-DAY. ‘The morning hour having been dispensed with, the House, at 11:10, went into committee of the whole (Mr. Cox, ot New York, in the chair) on the tarify bill. Mr. Brown (Pa.) spoke in support of the protec- tive system of taxation. Mr. Townshend (Ii) quoted trom the various Platforms of democratic national conventions to show that that party had always been in favor of tariff reform, and had always declared for a reve- nue tariff. ‘Mr. Gibson (W. Va.) said that he was sorry that the bill was not in such a form as to do justice to his state, Dut to decline now to consider it would be to stahd as an obstructionist to much needed legislation. “He was not willing to enter into a co- alltion with the republican party to obstruct wise and patriotic legislation. MR. RANDALL'S SPERCH. ‘Mr. Randall (Pa.) then took the floor in oppos!- ‘tion to the bill. He opened by stating the extreme quickness with which capital invested in large in- dustrial establishments took alarm at adverse crit- feism. While, in common with all other interests, {twas Mable to be called on in taxation to ald in the support of the government, Congress owed It to itself that nothing like a vindtctive policy should de ado In the nice adjustment of business af- fairs,there was nothing more conducive to success ‘than'stability.

He then went on to argue against the policy of unsettling business In- terests by constant tinkering with the tarif. Several times Mr. Randall was interrupted by applause from the republican side, and when he had finished he was again loudly applauded. He Plelded his remaining time to Mr. Curtin and ar. icAdoo. Mr, Curtin asked leave to print his remarks, and ‘Mr. McAdoo occupied ten minutes in opposing the ‘tariff bill.

Garnett, chairman of the com- mittee of arrangements, in welcoming mem- bers of the association, spoke of Washing- ton as a place of eminent and renowned gatherings, where the supreme Interests of the whole country are studied and discussed by its largest intellects, in order to the discovery and enforcement of those political and constitutional laws which shall best establish and maintain the Well-being of the Republic. It was, he thought, a fit place for the meetings of this body, for no laws peculiar advantage possessed by this body, which hot affected by sectional interests or by party ambitions. ‘They had no constituenctes to whom | 1 they Were responsible. They moved in a higher plane, and were answerable alone to the dic~ Tum of sclentific truth. ‘The truths they discovered could not be patented for individual use, or con- Ferled into practical profit by hue monopolies He alluded eloquently to the tnission, the duties and responsibliiiies of the physician, atid to bis sin- gular experienee, What, he asked, In comparison to such experience, was ‘the knowledge of human nature acquired in the confidential council chamber of the lawyer, or learned in the secrecy of the con- Tesslonal, eveh When remorse wrings truth from the penitent? ‘Their dally experience forced thein to Tecognize with humility that beyond atl their knowledge there were experiences they could not understand, laws they could not explain or regu- late, and powers and influences they could not con- tol, and should they not, he asked, be taught by the ‘mental, moral and physteal relations which these experiences brought before them, an abiding falth in the Wisdom of that Being who has made the ministry of pain and death a part of His divine administration in nature and in nature's order of animate life? He referred to the value and Import- ane of these periodical gatherings, and the useful Tesults which have thus far followed the successful administration of the grand organization, ‘A PREDICTION OF WASHINGT@N’S FUTURE GRANDEUR. “In welcoming you, then, gentlemen, to this beau- tiful metropolis,” sald Dr. Garnett, “I hope I shall be pardoned for the indulgence of that natural pride Which prompts me to predict that, at no very dis- tant day, to the many physical beauties and natu- Tal advantages which she at present and which assure her future grandeur, splendor and power, there will be added the sublimest achteve- ments’ of intellectual effort, the wonderful evolu- Hons and. demonstrations of, professional science, the highest conceptions and skiliful executions of perfected art, representing all the nations of the earth, and conspiring vo inake Washington the cen- ter of those educational and intellectual move- ments, which, in’ their development, exercise so large an influence in moulding the national character and in shaping the destiny of our people.” The hearty words of welcome uttered by Dr. Garnett elicited an enthusiastic response froin the assoclation. The report of the executive com- mittee was read by Dr. Garnett, which gave an account of the arrangements that had been made for the reception and entertalnment of the dele- gates and the rates of railroad Uckets to returning jelegates. Letters received from A. Peltce Gould, F. R.

President Flint’s Annual Address. Mr. Flint then began his annual address, rom personal recollections, he could speak of the enthu- ‘slam which characterized the first convention in 1847. The motive for organizing the association was, stated in the call to be the improvement in medical instruction and the advancement of the stendard of medical requirements. Its growth and development have been rapid. It has the age of youth, and its present flourishing con- dition 1s sufficiently attested by the present meet ing. ‘The speaker then spoke of the advance which ‘was constantly being made in medical knowl He thought that the tme devoted in colleges to Greek and Latin might more profitably _be devoted clal_position'is higher in no country.
