The homecoming.

PUT IN BAY, O., June 20.-The institute
still continues its session, and additions to
those in attendance are constantly being
made Reports were received to-day from
the departments OF surgery, obstetrics, gy;
naology and redology, opthalmanology and
otology, psychological, medicine, microscopic
and anatomy, and physiology. These bu-
reaus all presented valuable papers, showing
original research on the part of the members,
and earnest and valuable work. A report
was presented from the committee on legisla-
ton, which referred especially to the estab-
ijshment of State boards of health, and the
legislation of the practice of medicine; The
discussion showed plainly that while the
homeopathic school was in favor of such leg
isation as would guard human life, and pro-
tectthe people from disease-producing causes,
and the practice of medicine by Ignorant and
incompetent persons, they were unwilling tc
submit to any legislation which Disseminated
in favor of one school as against the others,
and had succeeded in defeating such legisla'
ton wherever it had been attempted thus far

THE STOVE BUILDERS
Resolve that they See an Encouraging
Outlook, but Urge n Cautious
Proceeding on the Part
of Manufacturers.

CLEVELAND, June 20.-To-day's session
of the National stove manufacturers conven-
ton opened at eleven o'clock, President S. S.
Jewett in the chair. :.
resolution was submitted by Mr.. Sard,
of Albany, New York, calling the attention
of the convention to the fact that while the
outlook is more encouraging, yet the condI-
ton of the trade necessitates the most eau
tious procedure on the part of each manutac-
turer; that there has not been an over-pro-
duction of frst-class goods, but that the sur.
plus is mainly confined to stoves of inferior
grades, which may be forced upon the mar
ket and necessarily rest-i~t thA sale nr s0VUs
Of a I Detter quality; that the prime cause OF
the low prices lately obtained is the forced
sale made out of season.
The members of this association, and bus
mess men generally, are to be congratulated
upon the repeal of the bankrupt act, which
will aid greatly in restoring confidence III
commercial circles.
The system of contracting for convict labor,
as at present existing in several States, is per-
nicious and demoralizing to the last degree
and should enlist the strongest efforts OF each
member of this association, both singly ano
in combination, toward its abolition.
Adjourned to meet In Rochester, New
York, in January next.

A CORRESPONDENT recently writing from
Paris pays the following compliment to an
article of Memphis manufacture, also to cot
ton yarns manufactured in southern States;
al have lying before me a hank of thread
made by the Clement attachment, In Mem
phIs. The thread is manufactured By short
process directly from the seed, without going
through the saw-gin, press, compress, and
consequent breaking up. The thread is said
to be much stronger than that made OF Gotten
that has gone through the processes just adj
verted to. The superiority of southern yarns,
manufactured of cotton that has not been
compressed, in A'ab ma aad Georgia, is an
established fact"
