A hurricane swept over narrow strip of

Steel and Iron Company was demolished,
and four colored men who had taken shelter
in it we're killed. Many houses were un-

stock house of the furnace was leyeled with
the ground. The storm also passed over
Richmond and Danvile, and In the coun-
try about Petersburg considerable damage
was done. 4 large tree was blown across
the track of the Richmond and Petersburg

winchester Presoytery.

Winchester Presby.ery met April 10th in
Martinsburg, and elected Rev. j. II. Moore
moderator and elders George Glass and H.
d. Gilkeson clerks. The meeting was a
full one. Rev. J McC. Duckwall was
called to Montgomery Presbytery as evan
gelist: Rev. Creighton Campbell prosecuted
the call, and Presbytery at length granted
Mr.. ID. s request for dismissal to Montgomery.
Rev. J. A. Scott offered report of commit
tee on the I'll he, and Rev. Chas. Ghiselin
offered minority report on the same sub
iect, after which an able discussion of the
reports followed between the two gentlemen
offering the reports. DR.. Scott favored the
1.-THE as a law; Mr.. Ghiselin opposed 1t.
Rev. DR.. A. c. Hopkins from committee
reported on The Relation of the Church to
Societies inside and outside of the church.
This report is unanimous, and while en-
couraging societies in congregations opposes
them generally when larger than this. a
judicial case came up from Elk Garden
Church and was referred to committee.
Rev DR.. j. A. Lefe7re, of Baltimore, was
present and preached an able sermon Sun
day morning on Missions. The whole day
Sunday was devoted to considering foreign
missions.
On Monday Presbytery resumed consid-
Grafton of the 1.-THE question and referred the
majority and minority report for and against
the 1.-THE as Gods law to another commit
tee, to report the next day. The report
of the committee on societies inside and
outside the church was also cOndidered at
length and then unanimously passed. This
report is favorable to societies organized in
congregations by sessions and under their
control but not unions of societies beyond
the congregation. In regard to societies
outside the Church the report declares that
the Church bears no specific relation to
them; but that the members of the Church
are at liberty to join with them.
Rev. J. A. Scott, ID. d., and Elder James
W Strong were elected principal delegates
to the General Assembly. Davis and Sep

Can.m,s Emulsion Cures Consumption

The late DR.. Geo. B. Wood, Prof. Univer-
sity of Pennsylvania, says:
"As a remedy in Pulmonary Consumption,
Cod Liver Oil far exceeds any other"
DIR. Churchill, of Paris, says;
Consumption when not treated with the
Hypophosphtes must be regarded as almost
always fatal, whereas, when used in time,
every patient may be cured by use of the
Hypophosphites."
Camm's Emulsion is composed of the Pur-
est Norwegian Cod Liver Oil combined with
the Hypophosphites of Lime and Soda with
Iron. DIR. G. +. Mason, of Charlestown,
says, Il am prescribing Camm's Emulsion
in my practice and it has given me great
