RAW MEAT AND SPIRITS TO CURE
CONSUMPTION. An English paper
prints tho following: M. Fustcr
proposes to cure all cases of consump-
ton, by the administration of raw
meat and spirits. Although his me-
tho,l of treatment has not been long
employed by continental physicians,
considerable testimony has been
borne to the great success which has
attended its employment. The new
treatment has now been tried salts
fac orlly in 1000 cases of phthisis.
The raw meat is reduced to a pulp.
mixed with sugar to conceal its un-
pleasant flavor, and administered in
doses of 100 to 800 grammes per day.
The alcohol (of the strength OF twenty
degrees Baume) is given III doses of
100 grammes day"

CONSTITUTIONAL CONSUMPTION. - From trust
worthy data it has been estimated that at least one
fourth Of oil who born in the United states have
at birth lungs in tubercuous condition, and, in
consequence, are predispOsed to Pulmonary Com

predisposition need not end in Consumption,
Asthma or any other lung disease. if due care and
watchfulness be observed, and all exciting causes
are promptly treated they arise. 1t is in just such
cases Dr. JOyne's Ezpectorant exercises its most
beneficial effects, and has produced the largest pro-

RoADs.-A meeting of the Corn Exchange Asso-
citation was held this morning at half.past IL
o'clock, Charles II. Cummings in the Chair
Thomas Altman, ESQ.,, offered the following
series of resolutions which were seconded and
ably advocated by George l.. Buzby, Esq. -
Whereds, The approval OF CITY Councils is now
solicited for project which designs the removal of
the railroad freight tracks from Broad street, and
WhereGs, 1t is designed TO such approval, if
obtained, as a means of ntlue ncing the Legislature
OF the state to compel the city to remove said tracks,
and
Whcreas, This can only be done by violent dis
location of existing business relations, in6icng in
july, not only upon many individuals but upon the
general trade of the city, because of the consequent
imposition Of expensive charges upon the movement
OF merchandise, which charges ale now avoided by
the facilities furnished by said railroad tracks and
Whereas In these dal 3 of sharp competition with
our sister ctIes this community cannot afford for
the eradication of luxurious tastes, TO drive trade
into corner, and em6arrass 1t by hostile Legislation,
therefore
ResoiUed, That in the opinion of this body there
never was q time when the interests of trade de-
manded, more tmEeratiyely than now. that nothing
should he done ending to disqualy it in any depart
ment in any way, or anywhere, from successfully
bearing the burdens which the necessities of The
government have iml osed upon 1T
earnestly hopes that our City Councis wlll utter
withhold their approval from a measure whose

ReSot0ed, That copy OF the foregoing preamble
and resolutions be sent to each Chamber of Councils
THE GREAT FIRE--ADDiTIoNAL PARrI-
CULARs.-We append the following additional
particulars of the great fire in Third street,

235, fell in and crushed in the roof and ceilings
OF No. 1888. The firm had stock on hand
valued at $20,O which was nearly all de-
stroyed, and on which there Is only partial
insurance. The second story of the building
was occupied by j. Eisenhower as ladies'
shoe manufaCtory, and contained stock valued
at $l0,0 900, very little of which was saved. This
firm was insured for $25OO in the Spring
Garden Insurance Company, and for the same
amount in the Home Company.
MIR. Roberts total loss will reach some where
in the neighborhood of $40, 600, and which is
fully covered by insurance; $4,000 of which is

TronbIe ia a PreshyterY.

The Palmyra Presbytery, of the Presbyterian
Church, met at South Fork church, in Monroe
county, on Thursday evening last, and was cen
stituted by electing Rev. J. P. Finley as Modera-
tor. Most Of the churches within the bounds of
the Presbytery were represented. The business
progressed harmoniously untiLFriday afternoon
when division occurred, which resulted in the
breaking up Of the Presbytery rather unceremon-
iously, by the withdrawal Of those Ministers and
Elders who adhere 10 the action OF tho last Geu-
ersl Assembly.
The assembly instructed all Syuods and Pres
byteries to refuse seats in their respective bodies
TO the ministers known AUTHORIZATION and Tes-
lions, Rev. Mr. Finley, as Stated Clerk, and feel
Ing bound by the action Of the General Assembly
refused to recognize Rev's Willis, Travis an.
others as members Of the Pres bytery, Upon thi.
question, the ministers present were about equal
ly divided, bu: a majority Of The Elders holding
with the Declaration and Testim ony'' ministers
gave this latter party the preponderance in the
Presbytery.
A motion was made and adopted that the Stat
ed Clerk, who was also acting as Moderator, be
requested to resign that position. Upon this, the
aforesaid officer, with the other Ministers and Rl-
ders adhering 10 the action of the General Assem-
bly,, retired with the records; and the Presbytery
was thus unceremoniously brought to q close
There was no bitter discussion or angry words In
tulged in, and the parties thus separ ated in good
Oder.
