homeopathy in Philadelphia.

PmLAnELrnIA, Aug g.
The proceeds of the fair held in this city last
year for the endowment of the Homeopathic Hos
pital, netting some $50 600, are now being APP
piled. The trustees Of the Hospital have pur'
chased the old college property on filbert and
Cuthbert streets, above Eleventh street they
have torn away the small buildings in the rear,
and have entered into a contract to erect bu'ld-
ing thereon suitable for hospital purposes 1t Is
to be supplied with every department necessary
to such an establishment. A noticeable improve
ment will be an elevator to move patients from
floor to floor with ease and comfort The llahne-
mann Medical College have leased tho old build
ing ON Filbert street for educational purposes,
and thus the Hospital will be under the immediate
supervision of the college faculty. The clinical
lectures will be delivered in the hospital lecture
room. This gives to Philadelphia the completest
institution for the PRONUNCIATION of the doctrines
of Hahneman in America.-N Y, Tribune.

DsCgAcuuL SCENE iN A CoURr RooM.-Ihe
Newport Eipress says the climax Of indecency
was reached in court of justice in that village
last Monday. After the endearing names Of liar,
etc, had freely passed between the opposing
counsel, one Of them, in the midst of his argu-
mcnt--a man quite noted for his size and bully
ing ropensities--seized the Compiled Statutes,
and with much more force than discretion piled
the law in its purity upon the deienceless and
somewhat bald pate of his opposing brother A
scene of confusion ensued coats came off, knives
were drawn, aud blood or something else might
have freely flown had not bystanders nterlered.
Order was finally restored, and the justice at
once imposed fine Of s. upon the offender,
whether for contempt of court or assault was not
made plain.
