The small amount OF bond purchases being less than
the aggregate gold sales, matter Of comment
in financial circles. though appreciable effect

case OF any outside arbitrary interference with the

of the regular advertised programme, in fulfill
ment Of the policy foreshadowed by his Boston speech

compared with October, had a somewhat depressing
effect upon Government bonds, which were In tone

young lady of refined manner and elegant
appearance, spoke very modestly and WELL
saying that many women now sought this
profession; that they found it in some cases
an important aid in missionary work in heath
en- lands, and that it was simply fair that they
should have as much time given to them, IN
these lectures, as 10 the men.
In reply to a question whether his resolu-
ton contemplated lectures before male and
female students together, Mr.. Welsh replied
" No, sir. Let the female students come ore
day and the male students another. Hal7e
it
The result was the adoption by a large
majority Of the resolution Of Mr.. Welsh to
provide separate clinical instruction Tor the
women students, if practicable.
This seems to be very sensible decision Of
the matter, as by it the main objections to
clinics in the presence Of pixed audiences Of
men and women are avoided while the
young women VIII be allowed equal advan-
tages with the Young men.

LAY DEuGsrroS.-The vote on lay delegation
in the Maine Conference resulted as follows:

The bill to regulate rank in the navy, recent
ly introduced in the House Of Representatives
proposes to restore to staff officers the rank
they held before changes were made by Admiral
Porter it makes no increase or Change Of pay ;
it reduces the expenses of the staff corps 100000
year in pay alone, by reducing the number Of
the corps and it establishes the titles o. Medi-
cal Director, Engineer Inspector, and the like,
to obviate the confusion which might arise from
giving these officers naval titles. 1t also e1-
pressly provides that commanding officers shall
take precedence of all staff officers, aud that no
staff officer, by virtue Of his rank, shall exercise
command or authority in any but the corps to
which he belongs The effect Of the bill, if en-
acted, will be to restore harmony to the navy.

at Plymouth Church last Sunday, about mid
way of the church. at the left front of the pull
pit, sat John c. Whittier When the service
ended. Mr.. Beecher, who had noticed Mr.. Whit

to invite Mr.. Whittier forward As be came
forward Mr.. Beecher left the pulpit and de-
scended to the body Of the church and with both
hands gave the great liberalist hearty welcome :;
then turning he took from the platform besuti-
ful basket of flowers and presented them to Mr..
Whittier as a fit symbol Of pleasure at his pre-
sence at Plymouth Church. Mr.. Whittier was
taken by surprise and could only reply by few
words Of thanks. He was then introduced By
Mr. Beecher to large number of persons.
