DRESS by Mary J. Scaklktt. The annual
commencement of the Female Medical Collage
took place nt 12 o'clock to-day, In the large
riarlors of the College Building. There wan a
nrge attendance of friends Interested In the
rrooeedlima of the commencement. The dngree
of Doctor of Medicine was eonlorrod, by T.
Morris l'erot, Kmi., upou the following young
lad left:
Mary K. Blackmar, Michigan; Kebcnca J,
Cole, llachel A Dickey, Ituth A, Krench,
Lizzie A. Sanders, and Lizzie A. Smith, of l'enn
nylvanni; Marr I Wadsworth. New Hampshire;
Kline Pfelfler Stone, California- 11. M. Hoys,
Khode Inland; Kllzubeth Hays, Missouri.
The valedictory was delivered by Miss Mary
J. Scarlett, M. D., Professor of Anatomy, from
which we make the following extracts:
"Iadles Graduates of the Class: There are
moments In our lives into which the responsi
bilities of years appear to be compressed, solemn
moments, when some expected event Is con
summated, and the full weight of impending
duties is felt. This hour to you to us is au
hour of solemn Joy. You have Just had con
ferred onoii you the degree of Duetor of Medi
cine, a degree for which you have labored so
assiduously for years. It has been given you
In token of your appreciation and application
and acquirements. It is a pleasure to us to
thus publicly recognize you who have been
our students as physicians as our peers; yet,
we would not disguise from you and ourselves
that the position is one of toil and trial, as
well as of satisfaction and reward. A physi
cian's life is not one of ease. No weather is too
Inclement, no night too dark, for the calls of
the sick to teach medical aid and advico.
Often, delay in responding to these calls
might be fatal; and the warm fireside must he
forsaken, the night's wonted repose changed
to, toll that the sufferer may receivo.timely aid,
and the bereaved friends feel that all human
skill which they could command has been
exerted. This is not all time spent in visiting
the sick but is only a portion, greater or less,
of that required to be laboriously occupied. Re
flection and research, deep and long continued,
into the causes of disease and the requisite
treatment, belong to the works of the physi
cian. However pleasant this work may be, it
requires inontal and physlcul endurance: it re-
lUires investigation 01 tne opinions 01 otuers.
t is nothing, simply, to read what is oublisbod.
as a novel would bo read: the reading and
investigation must be bo methodical, so
thorough, as to make what- is appropriated
blend with our own thoughtl, and become, as
it were, a part of our own mentality, that it
nay be available when needed. It is due to
the patient that the best efforts should be con
centrated on the means of cure.
"Constant accessions are being made to
medical knowledge; and It is not suillclent that
the science of medicine should have been
studied in college from lecturesand text-books.
There Is a continual work to be done the new
to be carefully exaiulued the true adopted and
the false rejected. Neither is it well to bu too
fastidious as to the sources from which infor
mation may be derived. The little child in its
simplicity olt tenches important practical
truths to the wise. The suggestions of the un
learned may lead from darkness to light. A
scientific fact is not divested of value by being
exhumed by the unlearned; and he who has
greatest facility for collecting and arranging
facts, and bring them to bear upon every-day
occurrences, will have the most resources when
called to visit the sick.
"The combination of well -trained habits of
tbougiitvitu good powers of observation, are
important qualifications for the physician.
We live In an age when the right to labor in
our own way is not denied us; when new ave
nues of usefulness are being continually opened
to us; when our God-given mental, physical,
and moral powers may be exonnded under the
benign influence of active and ennobling work.
Work is the great reformer: idleness the tempter
to vice and immorality.
"That want of employment sends the young,
the beautiful, the fair, to the lowest depths of
degradation, to seek shelter in the Justly con
demned of all earthly abodes. To sell them
selves for support has become patent. Idleness
is one of the great vices that are Instrumental
in filling our county houses and prisons with
the outcasts of society. The day lor discussing
the propriety of women attending to ot her than
household duties is past. None toil more un
remittingly, nioreexhsiustingly.than those who
apparently deem it obligatory upou themselves
to spend the thousands acquired annually by
their fathers, brothers, and husbands, in sup
porting a fashionable stylo of living.
"Time is consumed in dressing, attending
parties, eating, and entertaining those who
belong to the same 'set.' regardless of congeni
ality of fellng and true friendship. Days of
uneasiness succeed nights of respectable dissi
pation. Llstlessness follows nervous exhaus
tionthe body fatigued and the mind left with
out healthy aliment. The unsatisfied soul can
not shed around it tho congenial influences
that make the abiding place truly a 'home'
that is right and proper. As some by thoir acts
appear to deem that the mistress of the bouse,
who has spent her time in toilsome follies, and
depends entirely upon hired help to procure the
creature comforts for her household., there
can be uo rational objection to
her employing her time actively, usefully,
and profitably, and having the same depend
ence. But she need not, necessarily, have the
came dependence! Habits of Industry engender
executive ability, and even while attending to
professional duties a care can be extended to
domestic comforts. Time economized is virtu
ally equivalent to time Increased; and it is
astonishing how much can be accomplished by
making proper use of tho moments. We would
not advocate a position for women that would,
In the slightest dearoo, remove her from the
home throne, the 'family circle,' the 'Holy of
holies,' which is the sanctuary in which her
inner life Is most refreshing and refreshed."
The address throughout was interesting and
instruct! ve.to those who were about to enter on
the professional duties for which they had so
assiduously applied themselves.
Admitted to thf. jXh. Uu motion of
Thomas Greenbank, Esq., Walter Scott Stark,

during the past, the' wish on the part of the
buslneKs community for his reinstatement,
and offered the following preamble and resolu
tions; MVierea. The shippers, manufacturers, and
traders of Philadelphia here assembled on
"Change," believing t he great business Interests
of our city have suffered recently by having no
head at our Customs Department for tlio Port,
and believing that thoroughly trained business
men ought always to occupy such positions,
and looking upon Colonel William It. Thomas
as possessing the great requisites of ability,
energy, and Integrity; therefore
Jttmnlvcd, That tho business men of the citv of
Philadelphia recommend Colonel William B.
Thomas as Collector of tho Port of this city.
Jr-olvnil, That the Chairman and Secretary of
this meeting sign these proceedings, and that a
Committee of seven be appointed to forward
the same to the President of tho United States
and the Secretary of tho Treasury.
Mr. George D. Buzby followed up the reading

always an Integrity, energy, and a capacity
requisite for thewuperintendenceof such a high
and difficult position. The speaker gave inci
dents of tho honest and capable management
of Colonel Thomas while ColleBtor,,whlcll were
applauded by all present.
On motion the resolutions were unanimously
adopted, and the following-named gentlemen

tioned in the resolutions: Messrs. 11. Harper
Jeffries, Hugh Craig, William Brico, Jamns
Stenl, C. J, Hoffman, George Ii. Buzby, and E,
C. Knight. On motion, the meeting then ad
journed. An Alleoed Lottery Case Decided. Home
weeks nack, Mr. Carey, of Carey, Bonuor A Co.,
was arrested upon a charge of conducting a
lottery scheme. Their plan was to send circu
lars through the Post Office, In which it was
proposed to send jewelry marked on a list at
pretty high figures, upon the receipt of a small
sum of money. They had a hearing and wore
discharged? They then applied at the Post
Office for their letters, which had come in renly
to their circulars. These now amounting to
about a bushel, more or less, tho Postmaster re
fused to deliver, although the parties were fully
and satisfactorily identified.
After entreating and urging the delivery of
these letters for several days, Carey, Bonner A
Co., bv their counsel, Charles Sergeant, Esq.,
filed a bill In equity In tho Circuit Court of the
United Stales, praying that the acting Post
master, A. N. Zevely, might be restrained from
sending the letters to the Dead Letter Olllce,
and bo decreed to deliver them to the parties to
whom they were directed. The District Attorney
for the United States, on behalf of the Post
master, stated to the Court that the letters had
already gone to the Dead Letter Office.
The letters over four thousand in number,
were then sent back from Washington to the
Post Office, and were then delivered to Carey,
Bonner A Co., It being decided that a Postmaster
is bound tn deliver letters to the parlies to
whom they are directed.
A Disorderly House Case. About 12
o'clock last night the police made a surround of
a disorderly house that was conducted by a
female named Annie Moore, at No. a;i7 Shlppnn
street. Her house has been complained of
several times, and last night a man who had
been Indulging In her hospitalities reported to
the authorities that he had been robber. Anuio
was arrested for conducting the establishment,
and three of the fair inmates, giving the names
of Margaret Robertson, Charlotte Hirst, aud
Elizabeth Johnson, were also taken into custody
on the charge of being concerned in the rob
bery. They had a hearing before Alderman
Tittermary, who committed them to answer.
Tijrovix! Stones. A party ot'lails wore en
gaged in a stone-tight yesterday aftorenoou, at
the corner of Fifth and Christian streets, nnd
for a short time there was a brisk skirmish that
was, probably, vPry interesting to the young
combatants engaged in It, but was anything
but suuncstlve of nersonal safety to passers-by-
One of tho boys, a lad twelve years old, and
giving the name of John Stavers. was arrested,
and after a hearing before Alderman Titter
mary. was committed to answer the charge of
breach of ordiuance. These street tights are
becoming a too common amusement with our
pugnacious juveniles.
The Kmpirb Hook and Laddeu Company, on
Monday evening, the ISth instant, will give a
grand citizens' dress ball, at the Musical Fund

the balls of the Empire enjoy a rare reputa
tion in that respect, and the Committee of
Arrangements have determined to render the
one in question even more attractive than auy
in the past have been.

Lizzie Vance, aged 7 years, was run over by a
wagon loaded with flour at Second and Catha
rine streets yesterday afternoon. The child

An Interestino Talk with the President.
Yesterday afternoon I called on the President,
and had a very pleasant and Instructive con
versation with him on the state of the country,
Happening in when the President was alone, I
made known my errand to him, when he asked
me to be seated. As soon as I took my seat,
said I, "I am a newspaper reporter, and I have
come to ask you what you think of the Sher.
man Reconstruction Bill?" "Well," said the
President, rising to the occasion, "I object to
all Bills. Since I have been here I have been
haunted with Upholsterers' pills, Civil Rights'
Bills, and," continued he. "worse than all, Bill
Kellcy. When 1 get out of this business I will
return to the tailoring, and conduct the busi
ness similar to Charles Stokes & Co., the emi
nent clothiers under the Continental Hotel in
Philadelphia Sail at a low piloe for cosh, and
make no bad bills."
This Is the substance of the President's re
marks, as near as I can remember, and I was
astouished at the President's knowledge of the
nstltutions of our city. - ,
