LADIES IN THE PROFESSIONAL
meeting of the classical and literary So
cieties in connection with st. Andrews
University, Scotland, was recently held
Mr.. James Collier, NJ. A., divinity
student, presiding. After some prelim-
mary business, the question which had
been fixed for discussion, viz:-"Should
ladies be admitted to the learned pro-
fessions," was begun by the leader on
the affirmative side, Mr.. Glasse reading
an able paper setting forth the claims OF
the ladies. He was followed by Mr..
Robertson on the same side. For the
negative side, Mr.. Paterson produced an
excellent address, and was seconded by
Mr.. Finlayson. The debate was con-
tinued with great animation by num-
ber of students, after which the leaders
briefly replied, and the vote was taken
when there voted-for the affirmative
80, for the negative II, givinga majority
of p in favor of the admission Of the
ladies. When the result was announced
it was received with loud cheers.

A celebrated writer says that no wom-
an is lady who can wound or mortify
another. No matter how refined or cul-
tivated she may be, she is in reality
coarse, and the innate vulgarity of her
her nature manifests itself here Kind
and courteous treatment Of all person
ifies one mark of true woman.

Worms
The proprietor has taken much pains to test
the comparative merits OF the principal Worm
Medicines of the day, which, numerous as the
EntoZOa themselves, have OVerSpread the
land, each claiming for itself the name of spe-
clfic: and, while we frankly acknowledge that
many OF them are Often successful, and do great
good, were we not assured that this combines
advantages possessed by no other worm medi-
cine, It's Introduction at this late day would not
have been attempted.
The pleasant taste and exceedingly small
quantity OF this medicine required TO test the
existence of worms, 10 remove every one
from the system-its operating In a few hours,
unaided by any other purge, together with its
certainty OF effect, constitute IL OF the most
brilliant discoveries of the age.
Had we space here, scores Of certificates
might be adduced to show its progressive and
rapidly increasing reputation Tor the last few
years; but TO promulgate its fame and estab-
lish its character, we only ask for trial.
Its speedy operation in all sudden attacks, as
commissions, collie, fits or spasms, gives II an
unrivaled superiority. Sent by express on re-

Mr.. Dwight Townsend, of New York, made
an argument yesterday before the House COM
mittee on banking and currency i'll favor of the
adoption of his bill suspending the further
cancellation of the three per cent. certificates

pressed the fear that during the coming fall a
stringency in the money market would be like
ly, and 10 view of the power possessed by a
few men, as recently developed to lock up large
amounts, some action should be taken by Con-
gress to obviate result of this character.

WEDNESDAY, MAY 9, 1872.

A letter from Washington says that eau
Gus of the radical republicans vas held yester-
day in the marble room of the Senate chamber,
to discuss the course to be pursued towards the
republicans who had joined the Cincinnati
movement. "One or two Senators like Chand-
Ter and Edmunds favored war-to the-knite
policy, and denounced them as traitors to the
republican party. Other Senators, including
Mr. Wilson, favored peace policy for the
present, with the future hope that the demo
Gratis would nominate straight ticket, and that
the liberal republicans would thereupcn all re-
turn to the fold. 1t was intimated that the
President held that view, and so far as this
conference could bind anybody, it was agreed
to pursue lenient course. A proposition that
Grant should withdraw, and let the republi,
cans unite, was seriously discussed. :,

to the Southland it gives instances of his dis
