I fear the .subject will lie (as itJias been heretofore) pasd by summarily, or if taken up ar all .will only share. fhe fate of many a good measure, be sacrificed at the altar of pop ular'nj'. 'Yet if . the subject be inwsiigatcd in $ proper, states manlike 'manner; I have hopes it may find some favor in the eyes of our worthy Legislators. It is deeply to be regretted that people, 'who are so jealous- and careful of their pecuniary Tntoresfewtirjriiave stJerrBtnrfgCfH Iftcsro" protect thejr prop erty, should exhibit such irrational indifTerehce "with fegaru td the preservation of their health and lives. In this State an ap plicant for admission to the bar must pas the ordeal of a very strict Supreme Court before he caw have the privilege of the "green bag," while the gates of the Meclfcal profession are thrown wide, open to the learned and uhlexinieU--rthG skilful Physician and the ignoiant Quack to every unprincipled ad venturer in Medicine, 'who' "with' more 'brass thanjbrains,' choo ses rather, to practice on the ''credulity of the people than re sort to some honest nieans of. support. It is like a game of hazard, though the Doctor generally vins and the patients loose hot only thcii propertybut often their Jives. , -The. es tablishment t( such a board, besides being of Incalculable ben efit to the people at Jarg-e, would alo afford some sort of pro tection to are injured profession at present exposed to the lega lized assaulvs of a mongrel combination of 'regular Quacks,' Steam Doctors let id omne genus who are totally bereft ot moral principle as well as deficient in intellectual qualifications. JBiit it may be said, if the people are willing to encourage such fellows, let them suffer. . This argument is a!:ogcdier untenable it is not the fault, but the misfortune of tlie " people they are thus imposed upon. The science of medicine has so much mystery about it ignorance is so easily concealed under cover of its technicalities, it is almost impossible lor 'j.the common people to form a correct judgment of a Physician qualilica tibns. - The wonder js, ihey are not more frequently the dupes of quacked Tiostrums. But if the above, is a gM argument against a .Medical Board, 'a fortiori' it applies' to licencing lawyers. Whyjhav'nt I a right o employ any man to defend mv suit iii Court ? . , ' . . j ;. ! Should the Legislature; decKnein the abundance of its wis dom, to act on this subject, it is to be hoped it y. ill at least de 'termine who are Physicians.
