moi believe there were more than one or
two homeopathic practitioners in New
York city, and one or twoin Philadelphia,
who understood the materia medica thor
oughly. He ayowed bleeding patient
who was dying Of pneumonia, and thereby
giving him relief, and sarcastically said
that he supposed certain doctors would
have refused to do so, and, when the pa
tieut died under their treatment, would
have been satisfied that homeopathy had
done all that was possible.
Among the arguments used to defeat
the passage Of the resolution was one to
the effect that II it was adopted, and the
membership OF the Society swerved from
the practice aslaid down in the books Of
their school, they coHld not collect their
debts at saw. More than that, 1t was
stated that "the opinion rendered by
Judge Davis OF the Supreme Court makes
1t clear that many Of US are liable, at any
time, for damages at law II we swerve
from a strict construction Of what con-
stitutes homeopathic practice"
DR.. J.W. Bowling advocated the reso-
luton, declaring that il Hahnemann had
lived until now, he would have, by the
advancement Of such thorough study OF
therapeutics as he gave to pathology, by
this time arrived at the point Of fayoring
Just such measure as this. As for him
self, he had used in his practice emetics,
cathartics, morphine, and quinine in
enormous doses.
DR.. E. B. Fowler discussed the second
article Of the constitution Of the society,
showing that it was strictly exclusive in
its requirement Of homeopathic practice
by members, thanks not to It's intent but
to its unfortunate phraseology. as
there" he asked "in this room one homo.
opathist, pure% Three out Of the sixty
practitioners present responded, Eyes"
He further argued; The general public
understands no difference between
homeopathic and homeopathic pure
and If We give our services, either ex.
pressed or understood, as homoopathists
and then do not fulfill the letter OF that
contract, we thereby forfeit legal protec'
ton for retaining our fees, and~more
than this, we incur liability to suit for
damages; not on the ground Of neglect or
lack Of general skill, but on the score
that contract had been made for GER
tain kind ofseryice and skill, which kind
had not been rendered.
After a long and heated discussion the
resolution was put to vote and declared
rejected by sixteen votes in tho negative
and thirteen In the affirmative. Then the
yeas and nays were demanded and the re.
suit thus attained was tie, seventeen
members voting on each side. Several
declined to vote, and others went out Of
the room when the time for voting drew
nigh. DR.. Holton, who had not voted,
was urged 10 do so TO relieve the Presi.
dent from the undesirable duty Of giving
the casting vote, and he did SO, voting
aye. The resolution, having thus re.
ceived IS affirmative votes to II against,
it was formally declared adopted.
DR.. Samuel Swan then read formal
protest, signed by many physicians. l,
was ordered 10 be placed upon the min
uLes.

The leading Homeopathic physicians
Of New York City, or rather the mem
bers Of the "New York county Homo
opa.hic Medical Society" held an inter-
esting discussion last Friday night, and
finally adopted the following resolution
by vote Of IS toll.
Resolrsd, That in common with other
existing associations which have for their
object Investigations and other labors
which may contribute TO the promotion oil
medical science, we hereby declare that,
although firmly believing the principle
'Similia similibus curanIur" TO constitute
the best general guide in the selection Of
remedies, and fully intending TO carry
out this principle 10 the best Of our abili'
", this belief does not debar uS from REQ
osniziug and msking use Of the results oil
any experience; and we shall exercise and
defend The inyiolable right OF every edl-
Gated physician to make use oil any estab-
lished principle in medical science, OF
any therapeutical facts founded on expe-
riments and verified by experience, so
far "a in his individual judgment they
shall tend to promote the welfare OF those
under his professional care.
The debate on the adoption of THU
resolution is reported at length in the
New York Sun OF Saturday, and, as
might naturally be supposed, was charae
terized by intense earnestuess on the par
Of the opposition. In the course OF the
discussion one OF these opponents read
the following extract from letter from
Hahnemann, the father Of the Hom@o'
pathic School OF Medicine, to Hufeland
"This law (Similia Simiib@ CttraHtur,

ings Of The earth the satisfaction have

Some Of the physicians present took
the ground that the adoption OF the reso
tuition was equivalent to giving notice tc
the world that the Homeopathic schOo
Of Medicine is confessed failure il thu
estimation Of Its disciples, and one Of III
opponents said he could see upon The
face Of the AllOpathic School "the smile
Of derision" which such resolution a
thia late date would provoke.
On the other hand, those who favored
the resolution commended that medicine
should be progressive science as long Al

The Colonization Movement at
Pittsburgh.

The Pittsburgh Dhpateh Of Saturday,
referring 10 it's report Of Thursday
nights meeting in the interest OF coloni-
zalion, remarks that there appears to be
great deal OF interest manifested among
the unemployed in that city in the scheme
developed at the meeting Of capitalists by
a representative from Boston. The Dis
patch says that there is no doubt but ii
the project is practically inaugurated, a
great many will be found willing to seek
new homes under such auspices.
Ami interest has in like manner been ex'
cited in this city in the ruccess of the
scheme. In a conversation on Saturday
with an active and Woodworking man,
we found that the article in the IsrELLr.
GINGER, giving an outline Of the proposed
scheme for settling men willing 10 work
on q piece Of land, and furnishing them
with an outfit, had been read with agreat
deal Of interest, and that such an oppor'
tunity wonld no doubt be embraced by
many mechanics at present out OF en-
ployment.
We trust that il the scheme takes shape
in Pittsburgh and Wheeling, that our
owners Of cheap land in West Virginia
will not neglect their opportunity to let
the capitalists connected with it know
that they are prepared to offer as many
inducements to cOlonists as can be
offered by land holders in the
West. These capitalists ought to be able
10 negotiate for large bodies Of land in
this State upon terms that would enable
them 10 settle to good advantage a great
many colonists upon our soil, in such
counties rs Calhoun, Gilmer, Braxton,
Clay, Webster and Pocahontas.
