Scranton, Pa., May 22.- The school
house and nearly all the residences
in the villages of Evergreen, Stod
dartsville and Goldsborough are
burned. A thousand acres of forest
is in Unities, and other settlements
and saw mills are threatened. Three
miles of the Pennsylvania Coal Com
pany’s gravel road, on tho celebrated
highland ridge, twelve miles from
Scranton, is destroyed. Immense
coal and passenger traffic is com
pletely embargoed. Without ruin
1400 square miles of forest lands is
doomed. This section, from its beau
ty, is known as tho American Switz
erland.
Oceola, Pa., May 22. All that is
now left of this thriving town is
about thirty houses, everything else
in the place being a mass of smould
ering wood and ashes, and it is ut
terly impossible to recognize any
part of tiie place. Tho lire com
menced in the Presbyterian Church,
with a strong gale blowing from the
hills directly toward the centre of the
town at the time, and In three hours’
time the devastation was complete.
The people were obliged to fly for
their lives and leave everything be
hind. Soon after tho eommonoement
of tiie tire the turnpikes and roads in
every direction were a mass of
flames, and there seemed no way of
escape, until Mr. Daniel Wood, of
the Pennsylvania Railroad, brought
a train of coal cars in, to which it
was found necessary to pack the men,
women and children us close as pos
sible, and even then it was necessary
to make four trips. It is estimated
t hat one thousand people wore saved
in this manner. The sight was a ter
rible one, and a gentleman who was
obliged to take this moans of escape,
says it was past description. The
(lames leaped up from the trees one
hundred feet high, and the cracking
of the flames was something awful
to contemplate. The burning brands
kept falling on tho riders and the
men were kept, busy putting out the
fire on the women’s and their own
clothes. Much credit is duo to Mr.
Wood for his prompt action in the
matter. The Cacholie and Method
ist churches wore burned. From
I,MO to 2,000 people are homeless,
and the destitution is complete. The
people have nothing to eat and no
clothing except what they hail on
their backs when they escaped.
The people of Tyrone, Huntingdon
and Belleforte have provided for the
sufferers for the present, but an
earnest appeal is made for help.

RESOLUTIONS Of FRATERNAL FELLING
VOTED DOWN.
Cleveland, Ohio, May 22. In the
morning session of tho Presbyterian
Assembly, Bov. Robert Hayes, of
Steubenville Presbytery, presented
the following resolution:
Whereas, The General Assembly of
the Presbyterian Church earnestly
desire to enter into fraternal corres
pondence with the General Assembly
of the Presbyterian Church, South ;
and whereas, the causes which pre
vent such u correspondence are cer
tain deliverances of both bodies
which now happily united constitute
the General Assembly, passed during
the exciting scenes of the late civil
war; and whereas, the General As
sembly regretting that these acts
complained of stand in the way of
close relations with the General As
sembly of the South, by their inter
pretation of concurrent resolutions,
and by their expressing confidence in
Christian character of the Presbyte
rian Church South, withdraw these
injurious deliverances indirectly,
and by way of inference. Whereas,
what the General Assembly has
done indirectly, they should do di
rectly by affirmative action when
the glory of God, and the interests
of the church of Jesus Christ’s
Kingdom requires such a proceed
ure, therefore.
Resolved, That all acts and deliv
erances of both bodies, now forming
the Presbyterian Church, before their
union, reflecting injuriously upon the
Christian character of the Presbyte
rian Church, South, be and are here
by declared inoperative and void,
and that the church complaining is
hereby relieved of all such grievances
Under which they have been labor
ing.
The resolution was laid on the ta
ble, but subsequently taken up and
referred to the Committee on, Bills
and Resolutions.
The report of the Conference Com
mittee was made the special order
for Monday afternoon.

A Specific for Neuralgia.
TESTIMONIALS.
PKTERsnuRG, Va., Juu. 20th, 1675.
John L. Jordan, Esq.—Dear Sir . Bo well pleased
am 1 with your Joyous Julep, tiiut 1 hereby tes
tify to tho superior merit of your uiioquoied
jr<qiaratlun lor Neuralgia. I shall osteem my
self happy should even one of that worst of all
classes of sufferers be lod through mo to take the
Julep. My wife has for ten (10) years been a mar
tyr to tho moat malignant and persistent neural
gic torture, without being able to find any relief
except from your preparation. Hlie was relieved
by the second dose as per directions, and bus not
has! a return of it for two months. To some I
may seem strangely sanguine about your medi
cine, but I have a right to be so. It is not rea
sonable to suppose this malignant malady would
have, died of sheer exhaustion of capacity for
sustaining itself, and that too in ami auto, and
the very minute your medicine wus taken. If so,
it is a most remarkable, simple coincidence, and
I prefer giving the credit in your favor of the
best testimony man can ever have—experience.
Vary truly yours, f
JAMES T. TOSH.
CoLUMUUS, January 16, 1875.
Mr.Jordan:—l take great pleasure in recom
mending yonr Joyous Julep for neuralgia,
lms produced a most wonderful relief in one oi
the severest attacks of ncurulgta my daughter
ever has had. Hho has been treated tor it by
three skillfni physicians, with very little benefit,
and used all the usual remedies with little suc
cfH*. I can with much confidence hope for a per
manent cure. It is only two days since w<< began
the use of it, ami it is apparently of permanent,
benefit. Yours, with respect,
