FIRE. :The People Rescued on Goal Cars! . f HnHVrinf—Htlp IM oeclt*cl Special 4o Daily Times, by 8. A A. Line.] 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. *♦ • I*IiItSBTTKIIIAN ANSHttIIU. 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.

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, MRB. L. I. NOItMAN. JOII.V L .IOKDVV Apothecary.
