The METHODIST EPISCOPAL Book ROOM,
sunday School, and Tract Depository of the
Fnlladelpha Conference Tract Society, formerly
located IN Sixth street, have been removed to
their new Book Room, No 1918 Arch street The
results OF their labors, as seen in the report OF
the conference Committee, shows a gratifying
result ior the last Conference year. Since that
time they have purchased the building they now
occupy, and constituted It the headquarters OF
tne church in this city and throughout the Con-
ference Their busi0ess is largely increased.
ana the cause never was more prosperous, and
the results more than meet the most saugume
expectations OF its friends. The last Conference
gave 1t their full endorsement aud pledged their
support.
The sixth resolution states that, as the Phia-
delphia Conference Tract Society is auxiliary TO
the Tract Society OF the Methodist Episcopal
church: and as its Depository Is managed by
the society for the sole benefit OF the Church,
the Conference regarded it as strictly de-
nominational and correctional establishment.
we think II the duty OF the Methodist Episcopal
Church. in the bounds of this Conference 10
make liberal donations to this worthy object,
and give 1t their largest patronage, and thus
establish first-class house in our community.

AFFAIRS IN ARKASsAs.-The commits ioner
of the general land office, Hon. Jas. Wilson,
has just received an interesting report from
the register and receiver of the land Office al
Little Rock, Ark, in regard to the resources
of the State. Iron Is found In abundance

The best lands are those bordering on the
water courses. The great valley of the Mis-
sissippi proper, embracing $4,000 square
miles, is superior for the growth of cotton,
corn, tobacco, hemp and the cereals.
The Arkansas river valley, $4,000 square
miles, is represented as the best cotton land
in the country.
The areas Of other valuable cotton lands
are as follows: Red river, l, Osquare miles
Ouachita and Brashear, LOO; White and
Black River and three tributaries, 1900; st.
Francis river, 1900; Saline river, $50.
The belts of land between these rivers are

THE CAaPHOR REMEDY FOR CHOLERA,


Great interest Is just now felt in the sue.
cessful cure Of the cholers by Dr. RvBISI, Of
Naples. Camphor, as a cure for cholera, has
long been used by both schools of medicine
and DR. RuBISi's innovation consists in the
method ofpreparibg the remedy. The essen
,ial facts OF the case will now state as they
have been reported here by an English gen
tlemau.
DIR RrBrsr's preparation consists of equal
parts by weight Of camphor and spirits, and
to the power thus obtained he attributes his
success in the treatment Of the disease. And
here may say that the quantity of campbor
which water will take up 10 small. To obtain,
therefore, the saturated spirits of camphor
'ofRUBlsI ii is necessary to distl spirits Of
wine, and get rid ofso much of its water as will
bring it to sixty degrees over proof in which
condition it will dissolve and hold in solution
its own weight Of camphor.
We are informed that our druggist find
it necessary to use alcohol Of 80 per cent.
above proof. The composition is simply to
put in as much camphor as the spirits will
dissolve.-Ed.l
it'll this saturated spirits Of camphor,"
DR. RUBtN, an eminent Neapolitan physician,
has treated in Naples Eve hundred and nine
ty-two cases of Asiatic cholera without the
loss of single patient. OF these five hun
dred and nincty-two cases, two hundred were
cured in the royal aims house; eleven in the
royal poor house, and one hundred and sixty
six in the third Swiss regiment Of WoLrF
That three hundred and seventy-seven cases
treated by DIR. RUBIN in the public institu-
tons were all genuine cases OF Asatic chole-
ra, and some "terribly severe" and that all
recovered, the evidence of the following dis
tinguished individuals, with their official seals
attached, sufficiently attests: II Govenstore
RIcEL; II Maggiore Commandante NICOLA
FORM; II Capitano COmmandante CARLO
SoDTRo; Generale COmmandante FILIrpo
RUocI; Colonel EDUoRo WoLFF.
"When man is seized with the cholera
he should at once, says RUBISL "lis down,
be well wrapped up in blankets, aud take
every five minutes four drops of the satura.
ted tincture of camphor. In very severe ca.
ses the dose ought to be increased to from
five to twenty drops every five minutes In
the case of man in advanced age accustom-
ed to take wine and spirits, where the drug
given in drops has effect, give small coffee
spoonful every five minutes, and in a very
short time the coveted reaction will occur.
ordinarily, in two, three or four hours, album
dant perspiration will come out and then
cure will follow" The preventative meth

On Thursday evening of last week, just
before the Philadelphia Black and-Tan closed
their orgies, Gov. BRowsLow rose to make
an explanation. 1t was this:
ut had been said that he (BRowSLow) was
afraid of the negro suffrage. He nevet held
doubtful position on any question, and he
had no hesitation in saying he was for negro
suffrage. He would rather DO elected to an
office by loyal negroes than dsloyal whites.
"He would rather associate with loyal me-
groes in private life than with white rebels.
lie would rather be buried in negro grave
yard than in rebel graveyard; and IL he
had to go to hell or Heaven after death, he
would rather go with loyal negroes than
white rebels"

THE free niger Convention was
the greatest failure of the times. So
base were its members and so confus.
ed and disgracoful its drunken pro-
ceedings, that the Chairman, Speed,
couldn't stand it, so he abdicated in
favor Of Bolts. This last, with a
stomach that can digest almost any
villainy perpetrated against his own
people, found the dose too nausea
ting, and, he too, had urgent bust
ness elsewhere. The border States
delegates seem to have left before the
business of the Convention was &C.

what was done, or who did it.

TIKI authorities of Cincinnati have
refused to tender to the President
the Inequalities Of the city. This
rudcness is, perhaps, blessing in
disguise, AS it may save the President
from having his pockets picked and
his clothes daubed with hogs grease.
Are there any johnson men in this

honor by giving a wide berth to that

.GnEELY still insists that govern

consent Of the governed. 1t is a
pity that SO obvious a political tru-
ISM should be treated now, and in
this country, as an idle theory. II
Greedy is right-if the founders OF
the Government were right, the South
had the right to withdraw from a
Government that had not its sanction
and those who charge it with rcbell-

mental principle of freedom, and be-
