On motion of Dr, MeNDENRALL, of Ohio, the name of C. .. H. Cleveland, and on motion of Dr. Artze, of Pa., the _ awe of Dr, James R. McClintock. were expunged from the Hist of permanent members of the soclety, on the Bround that they had backelid from the regular into the “‘trregular’ practice. An invitation was extended to the medicai profession of Canada to mest with their bocy St Nashville. Dr. Phelps. from Special Committee, sub- mitted resolutions relative to the death of Dr. Gouch, Auris +h- iw tet pestilence at Norfolk. Dr. Stocker, of Pa., offerred the following amendwents to the constitution : ‘Amend article $0 that it shall read: “ Article 3.

Laid on the table under the rule. Dr. Doxsky, of Obio, offered the following : Reroived, Trat in May, 1858, and every third year thers after, th's association meet at Wasbington City, snd that the it officers be juested to correspond with the Board of gers of the ‘Smnltheonian Institution in regard to furnishing eooesary rooms lar the Keeping of the archives of the sao: oon. Laid on the table under the rule. A special committee was subsequently appointed to eorrespond with the mansgers of the Smithsonian Insti- tute on this subject. Dr. Sueers was for mainteining s “ masterly inactivity” towards quacks, and therefore offered the following: — Besoived, That it ie de tory to the dignity of the medical protenion to botice the works of irregular practiuoners ia Our ‘Mecical periotica’s, ‘This was parsed over, to take up the report of Dr. Groves upon the “causes which retard American medical Mterature,”’ when the vote adoptirg it the day before was Feoons!< ered. Dr. Breckexripcr, of Kentucky, who made the report wpon ‘American medical Jiterature,’’ presented views @trectly oppored to those of Dr. Gross (report notice! in former letter), and said the point at iseue was wheth-r the association would favor the sectionalism or the uni. versality of medicine. On motion, both reports were then referred to the Com- mittee on Publications. , Dr. Pavame, of I., from the special committee to whom wae referred the communication of Dr. Hamilto-, re- ported the foliowing resolution, which was adopted: = Resolved, That leave be grasted to Dr. F. H. Hamilton to make ure of tbe materisis of his report on * Kies after Fractures,” «hich is tn course ot publication by this associa- ‘tor. bis acticipsted work upon “ Fractures and Disle- gation Dr. Davie, of Til., Chairman of special committee, re- ported on ‘The Changes in the Composition and Pro, perties of the Mik ot the Human Female, produoed by mensiruaticn and pregnancy,” in s paper containing mumercus valuable details of much interest to the pro- feerion and the pubic, obtained by careful examina.ion ard comparison, and showing conclusively the ill effects of lactation, @specially during the latter of the periods referred to, Aceepted, and referred to Committee on Publication, and the Dcctor was requested to continue his investigati n and report to the next meeting. Dr. J. M. NewsMax, of Buffalo, from Committee on “ the Sanitary Police of Cities,”’ presented an elaborate reort, embracing detatis cf the various estimated causes o! dis- ease in ct:ien, a compared witn rural localities, togetver with numerous valuable statisiies of mortality in the largest cities of Europe and the Uaion, of which the Dos- tor, at the request of the acreciation, gave @ brief verbal abstract. The report evidently embodies a vast mass of useful information, with deductions from it that ity life fe inimical to health and longevity, and arguments en- forcing the urgent necessity for ameliorating the sanitary eoncition of the populous localities of cities and la towns. (f diseases arising from impure air and insuffi- cient ventilation, classed uader the term ‘‘zimotis,” the report stated that, in 1860, 40 per cent of all the deaths fin the various cities were of that nature. The report also ‘embodied details of the loss of life from cholera, smal!pox, Ke., giving wartling expositions of danger trom these pources, and recommends the enactment of laws for com- pulsory ventilation acd cleanliness, aa well as for vac- dination. The report was referred t> Gcmmitee on Pub- Heation, and will appear in the transactions. AFTERNOON SESSION.

As to the charge of seeking notoriety, he denies it in toto. He aimed at no euch purpose, and the resolution wounded his fee.ings, His remarks elicite’ hearty ap- ure. E Dr. Nem disclaimed any personal allusion whatever. He was aiming at a principle which should never be vio- lated. Dr. Wood’s notoriety might not be enhsaced |» the astion under reference, but the privilege «’ simile: proceecings might be abused by other persons iroafcer. Dr. Woop, in rep!y, spiritedly remarked that he hed heard beforeband t such s resolution was to be of- fered, and it was not the resolution itself thet h. cared 80 much about, as the talk outside, He had heerd that a member from Philadelphia bad reported that be (Dr. there voting when I got back; when they left they wey down Fast; I suppcee there were nearly 400 strangers there; bave not eeen them in the district since; they were weil armed with T do not know as any se. ‘ors of knives, gups and revolvers; the district voted.

Hepkins, residing about nize mi.es south of Law- rence, says, that at the election he saw many of luis old scquaintaxces from Mirsourl. He adde:— ‘They to'd me there were about twenty-five of my scquaint- arces there ‘rom ‘hat settiement; they said ‘hey came to voie eh rr fo ard intended 60 to do; they said they wanted to rake ita siuve oR the phe Somarke he ex, ede | Swe; i wan't they would lees ‘hetr property, and it it was with that the motion af Dr. Gross, of Ken'ucky. » viting | Receesary ‘hey would come, agnin; they fod me tere were the asociation to examine his cuigical speci~ .3 be | would Le from 5,000 to 10,000 here im the Yerritory from Mis- stricken from the records. souri jo voie. The general tenor of all the testimony is the same, ond it proves, beyord all possibiiity of doubt, that thou- fancs of armed men from Miescuri bave invadei Kensas at every election, robbed them of their right of suffrage, and imposed upon them cflieers and legislators who cic not represent their wirhes, but acted in direct defiance of their will. It is the Jaws made by these men, thua e'ecied, that the people of Kapans are required to obey. And the whole power of the feceral government is to be used to cc mpel obedience, Dr. THomson, of Delaware, undertook to pour cil cn the i‘ated waters, in a humorous way, by saying he hoped New Yerk would “hold her jaw,” and thet Philadelphia would not try to stick in hers. He trusted that both the motion and resoluticn would be withdrawn. Dr. Gross moved to strike his motion referred to from the records, for the purpoee, as he said, of removing the bone of conteution. Dr. Nim. withdrew his resolution, and the motion of Dr. 8 wes struck from the minutes. These par- rages at wit seemed to restore » good feedng, and thote of Philadelphia who appeared to be joslous of the ex loits and growing reputation of your townsman, Dr, ‘ood, appeared quite sfied.

The Conference seemed to think Mrs. Harlan rated her husband pretty bigh, for Bishop Simpson {s regarded 2n having no equal as a preacher in the Weat, and few any- where else. Bishop Hamline’s wife has been ths principal wituess to prove the falsity of the reports eficuiated avout ner husband, and Mrs. Harlan’s ‘Was introauced 0} ‘the cefencant to show that the reports her husband been charged with circulating were true. She testified to various acts of immoral{‘y on the part of Bishop Hamline, and to his confession to her of various inetances of gallantry, in private, secret, confidential in- tercourre between him and the witness. ‘When his wife’s testimony ,was reached (about three e’clock, P. M.,) Mr. Harlan got up, and asked leave of absence. He'said he bad imperative business which his absence for am hour. The leave was not retarmed whem the Conference ad- journed at five o’clock, and some members of the Cincin- nati Conference seemed ‘to think his leaving an indication of his intention to abandon the case.

Fridey, May 0 InplaNaPous, ‘The Con‘erencé met this morning at 8 o'clock. er the uruai opening exercises, the reading of the testimony in the Bishop Hamline case was resumed and ooncluded about 9 o’clcck, when Mr, Harlan commenced the argument for his defence. He continued speakiog unui hslt-past ¢leven, when the reguler order was su3- penced to receive memorials and to apnoucce the ap peintments of preachers fcr the Sabbath. Mort of the petiiions received were on slaver~ sad were referred to the committee on that subject Jn the afternocn Mr, Harlam resumed his speech His management of the defence was really able, and ia al- wort eny other case would have produced a powerful «f- fect. But the testimony in this csse is euch that no arttul arrangement of facts and no apzeals of elequence cxn cbange the impressions ithas produced. Ore of the most cifficult points for the defence was the mth gai Hew rr beimplied from the fact that Mr. and Mrs. Harlan had kept ups correspondence with Bishop Hamline for twelve fter there crimes are chard to have been had uniformly spoken of him in those letters in thest terms. In reply to this Mr. Harlan said th: ad mever any sede kaow- ledge ot anything improper in the Bishop; thet in his intercourse wiihhim he always to ps an upright man and a sincere Christian, and he treatec him assuch. The crimes a were known only t« bis wife; snd though he stated that he gave full credit to them, yet he left the impression that he believed Bishop Hanlin to bave since repented and became a difi:rent map. This defence was apae, but mot satisfactory. Rev. Geo. W. Walker, Cincinnati Conference, Pre- siding Eider of Hilleboro’ district, is conducting the pro- secuticn, aud willreply to Mr. Harlan. The impression left by the testimony ir highly favora- ble to Bishop Hamlire, and tke action of the Clacinnati Conference wil without doubt be sustamed by a large xajority. No other business will be done this week. Ever since this trial commerced parties of young lacles bave appeared im the Rotunda at the opening of every sesrion, and ¢ither sent for or stop} the clergymen of their acquaintance, to ark ee.

Ifthey ¢id not know the doozs were closed they would walk up to the entrance as urun!, and uot send for some one to ask if there was no way in which they could get in. There are not wantons or gossips, but highly respecta- ple ladies.
