Dr. Whitehead, returned his thanks to the society for the distitiquisued honor which had been con ferred upoii him, by his having been called upon to preside over the deliberations of the noble body of men, who compose the State Medical Society of North Caroline, and in a beautiful, instructive and eloquent address upon the advancement bt the science of Incdicine, the duties of the pro fession, and the relations of art to the prngreFsive science of medicine. He paid a glowing compliment to tbe patient la- b r and 0j by the aid of which his pro fession had .been able to keep pace with the advancement of science and art. and through which new visions of truth were constantly; being recorded. It was in truth an e ahorate discnsision upon the merits of the profession, and nothing that we could say or write would do justice to the theme. He took his seat amid a per fvet roar of applause ; whereupon Dr. Satchwell offered the following resolution which waa unanimously adopted : licsohccl, That the thanks of the socie ty are due, and are hereby tendered to our retiring president, Dr. M.

On motion of Dr. Foote, it was moved matical formulas. Not so with medicine; it rests npon knowledge otherwise obtain ed, and in a great degree from inapprecia bly delicate prpcees. Vitat phenomena, in all their intiicacics, have cont tuted the mysteries with which medicine has been dealing through so many centuries. It has grown by the accretion of apparen tly unimportant particles, and has at last attained the dignity of a science. The circulation of the blood cost the labor of more than twenty nntomists through a period of more than a centnry. It was discovered by a great scholar, Win. Harvey, and it has made his name glori ous and immortal. The discoveries of oxygen, vaccination, anesthesia, separate nerves fibres for: motion and sensation, and other discoveries sncceded each other so rapidly as to leave the world to believe that all this is the easy and spontaneous evolution in intellectual development. But not so contended 'by Wood. Unre quited toil, labors in the face of the neg lect and objections of the world ; opposi tion to dissection ; the false charge that med'ciue was opposed to religion, and that a search into the ; minutial of it tends to materialism ; these are some of the charg es against which progressive mediciue has had to contend, outlive and riso above. In no respect has the profession been more benefitted than by the disenssions, which have taken place in regard to inflamma tions and fever, the - opponents of ihe modern school of ratioual medicine have been carried alons: with tbe current of progress, and they bad to abandon the ground formely held as to the nature and treatment of the profession in modern times, is tne wonaenoi improvement in the direction of disease, or in diagnosis. py to tne secretary lication in cur transactions. Dr. Foote related certain eases in his practice op the nse of the hyperdernic syringe, in apoplectic convulsions, &c. Upon motion 0f Dr. R. S.

Dr. Kelly read a letter of invitation to the society, from Messrs. Wallace Bros. & Stephenson, to visit their herbarium. The invitation was accepted. Dr. Satchwell urged the prompt and and vigorous work ot the board of censors. Also some remarks denunciatory of the quack ciiicer establishment at Goldboro." Dr. Summerell made some practical remarks upon the treatment of eclampsia.
