A Female Medical College.

We are in receipt of a pamphlet c;rcu-
lar of the Pennsylvania Female Medical
Collgc, which Institution has its "local
habitation" in tho city Of Philadelphia.
In the list Of students for 1s55-5G we sec
the names Of Cattle Moore and Margarct L.
Moore, set down from iSomM C"rniina.
There is also one from North Carolina, and
one from Virginia. We have no word of
commcndation for such an institution. Wo-
man was never designed for such pursuits,
and when she departs frcm her appropriate
and peculiar sphere the tendency incvita-
bly, is to depreciate those virtues without
which she is q curse rather than blessing
to society.

The Acquittal Of Herbert.

Wo have seen no act in Washington
which deserves more general or determined
condemnation than the acGuittal of Mr..
| Herbert, OF California, for killing the waiter
nj WiIlarI's Hotel. We will not say that
Mr.. Herbert is guilty of deliberate murder,
but he most ;l>surcdlv committed man
slaughter, and should hc punished accor-
DINGHY. The very fact that he is member
OF Congress Is reason why justice should
be metcd out to him without favor. We
shall have as poor an opinion of the admin
ls,r,tlon OF justice in Washington as in our
own city or ever i'll san Francisco. if such
men rs Herbert escape :lc penalty of their
crimes. Some reckless presses have been
disposed TO make political capital out. Of
in'a occnrrcnc", by representing that Mr..
llclacr is 4 southcrncr, whereas Lc halls
t!om California. They haze then asserted
that he WAS born in the South. as if all the
villains i'll Tie world came from that section.
II makes no difference where ITcrlcrt was
born, his crime is tic same, and he ought
TO have been punished for is commission
lhcre Is no political feature TO the case
lltrh"rtS acTuittal is simply the result n

city time ai! again, and unless there is a
reform III tins ma'tcr an indignant people
will be aroused, WHO will sweep The PIE
tended administrators OF justice away, as
they have in California. Less than three
years ago there Were two men confined in
the Iomb:, i'll this city, on the charge of
murder. One WIS Il Frcnclnan, of con-
siderable and very influential connections
lie shot Il man i'll open dag in this civ,
without excuse, and evidently with prcnc,li-
ta;ion. The other WAS IN lriShman who
WAS charged with killing his wife, thoucI,

The writer of this ccnvcr:cd with both of
these men during their confinement, and lie
WIS i"rriLly impressed with the probable
innocence OF the I.is!man, but with certain
Tact oi the guilt OF the Frcnc!man. In

Medical Use @. Salt.

In many cases Of diSor,lcrc,l stomach, n
teaspoon:ul of salt is Il certain cure. In the
violent internal aching, tcrnc,! cholic, add
Il tcaspoon!ul Of salt to II pint Of cold wa
ter; drink it and 60 TO bed; it is one of
the spccdicst remedies known. The same
will revive Il person who seems almost dead
from receiving heavy fall, &c. In an ar-
oplcctc fit, no time should be lost in pour
ing down salt and water, If sufficient scnsi-
bility remain to allow Of swallowing; if not,
the head must be sponged with cold water
until the sense returns, when salt will COM
pletely restore the patient from the lctIargy.
In a fit, the feet should be placed in warm
water, with mustard added, and the legs
hriskly rubbed, all bandagcs removed from
the neck, and cold apartment procured,
il possible. In many cases of severe bleed
ing of the lungs, and when other remedies
failed, DIR. Rush found that two teaspoon
fuls Of salt completely stayed the blood. Tn
case OF bite from n mad dog, wash the
part with Il strong brine for an hour, and
then bind on some salt with a RAG. In
toot'achc, warm, salt and water held 10 the
part, and removed two or three times, will
relieve it in most cases. If the gums be
affected, wash the mouth with brine If
the teeth be covered with tartar, wash them
twice Il day with salt and water. In swcle,l
neck, wasl, the part with brine, and drink
it, also, twice day, until cured.
Salt will cxpcl worms, if used in food in
a moderate degree, and aids digestion, but
salt meat is injurious, if used much.-Er.
