Mr. Joyner thought it had not only been o understood, but that a distinguished (eu tleman in the other cud of the Capitol, (ti. 11.

I hen as to ille luilncemeuts which it was said hail been held out br ibe disTiiigiiHh- ed gentleman alluded lo, (Gen. Saunders.) he, Mr. W., was satl.-Meil tftat mmtluman w ni'd have made no promise or augcedon winch he ws not uihorilid to make, and there wssj no sort of eviiieiiee lielore Ihe Senate that he had held out any such inducements or prom ises: on die contrary, while he, sir. V.lhul held no conversation with that gentleman on the subject, he would undertake to tay, from! -what ha deemed credible authority, ihat the gtnttenran alluded lo had no objection to the Stale being represented iu the noard aa pro posed in the amendment of ihe Senator from Caswell. The Senator frun Halifax had, however, alluded to the personal knowledge of the Sen ator from Craven, on the subject of tbe pas wage of Ihe bill to re-organize the Raleigh and Gaston Road, lie, Mr. V., was jrld lie had dons so, for it afforded him hit opportunity nf staling what lie was auxious ahould he known, lie remembered very wed ihat the Raleigh and Gaston Road would not have been re-organized upon its present basis il it had not been for hi, Mr, W.'s, vote; and he remem bered another thing equally well; and il waa that even with his tola tiie whola mailer, would have failed, if it had not been for die fact that lilt friend from Carteret refused I to vote in order Ihat the measure might be adopt ed.' And he, Mr. W., remembered further, that while Ihe Senator from Halifax and '.lie ISeu.itnr from Warieri ihen. as now, the Speaker of the Satiate were exceedingly auxious for die passage of the bill in almost any shape, and while the Speaker rtjoireU al Ihat lime to have il in his power, by the vote of the Senator from Craven, and the refusal on the part of the Senator from Carte et lo vole al all, to seen re the passage bv his c.isl Ugvnie; yet, whim st the prcs'nt tetsion, his, Mr W.'s friend from Carteret, Dr. An ndell aud; himself had saked for a transfer of the tittle's portion ol the slock in said Company to build up a kindred work in ibcir section of the Stats, not only had the Senator from Hal ifax coma forward and used nil the influence Which he could exert to defeat that measure. aal, when a motion waa made to reconsider the vols by which that measure (very dear lo hie friend from Carteret, Dr. Jkrendell aud himself,) had been lost, the presiding officer ol the Senate had teen lit to interpose, and when that motion was likely to prevail, exer Cited hit high prerogative of yolifi to m ike a !i ote!, in order to defeat it. tiiich conduct might be all right and proper, but if il was, he. Mr. W.. could not. forth life of him. un. tlersland upon what principle il could be so. ite tell it to be an act of tyrrauy, not only oppressive bui Intole. il.lc. -. Mr. Joyner laid the Senator from Craven had been so worried and provoked since the defeat of the Atlantic and North Carolina Railroad bill, that ha could tea nothing bin what he conceived hi ha his wroiw, i lut matter. I nat Senator had forgotten, it seems, tbe true httlory of the Raleigh and Gallon bilk .. It Wat not on the passage of the bill, hut an eoncuiriuj in an amendment of ihe House of Commons, that the facts staled bv i s tint Senator had occurred. It waa true Ihat I the Senator from Craven and the Senator L. .from Carteret had been mamlr instrumental I In procuring the id ipiion of Ihe ameadinents Coy the Senate, an amendment which he, Mr. ! had opposed but without which the bill wwniu tainu. . oy ins way, wnne tin, though not smelly in order, he wmild lake OcrssMin lo reply to anoae remarks made hy that Senator a few data agd in rcl.iiiou In li't, Mr..'t vote to transfer nock Irom the W ii minimi tnd R-.leigh Road to the .New-Kerne .;-ti.G-)fi)ltirf' JIotcI f 'Jrs -fita'rj, jGpoffljit re titration, ihat while tha Senator from Craven was eurrert it far as he went he had not told " story.

He, Mr. Joy uer, at the sug gestion of that Senator, had reported lite bill luck to die fci-naie wiin auch au amendment, and had voted for it on its second reading ; but if the Senator haJ gone on he would have found that he, Mr. Jnyner, votrd against that bill mi it third reading, and that it wa lout hy a largo m on' v and it h had voted for it, on die second reading, which the Journal hiiwi,! ht h.ti ilonir. 11 hd hM.11 fin llitt Mrit I aol.t-14 iliom of the Si!!ial,,r fmiu Cm Mil 1 ..,,-K v. h 1 s..,i .o.r .n.im.t In,., .....1.1 : -1 1 . l . , 1 ihe recnid ruinit mt wht-n ha lnuutl ti I I . . . .

The Senator from Halifax bad immediately interfered and s.iJ.b reuustcbered ry well having voted to liauler stock from the Wilmington and Raleigh Roid lo die .Manchester Road, and yudcriook lo justify that vote. And re marked that if there wa, any other case, he should like to be informed of it. Whereup on he, Mr. W., had Slated that he' was well aware of Ihe vote in favor of tbe Manchester Road, but as the yeas and inys were not call ed in that case be did not inteud charging il ; (h it the vote to which lie alluded was in favor of the Kewberne an I Cold.b.irirjgh Road when the Senator from Halifax did vote for ihe transfer of s;ock, as rin he shown from the Journal.

V here upon Mr. Jovner siid he could assure him, while he had sjioken warmly, at he always did, h? did not intend'.ti tay a ward disrespect-' fill to tiie Senalor from.

If a man places a low eatiinate upon his own rharacier. and fails to demand Ihe respeel of his fellow men, be will find hut too soon that the rommuiiity not only adopts his cstU mate, but is ever ready to sink him below Ihe degraded position be has unsullied. With equal propriety may tins ,be said of the pro-1 fessiouof MeJirine. If its members hy their own acts degrade it lo t luvcl wiih einpiiirism. by paiideting lo the prejudices and deletions of the day, nothing can be expected of the Community that will maintain ns dignity, and give il dial rvspeciful distinction it jusiTy mor tis. To accomplish this, there must bo concert ol uciiunauKing ihe Medical men of the Stale; and no fear of popular prejudice, no apprehen sion of oiposi:ion-iand no scitish love of gain shouiu ilotcj4 them; nor will die high-m ind ed Physician wllo is jn'alous of the character of Ins proirssion, be swerved Iro.n his duty when once lis is satisfied what thai duty is. Then is, wu are induced to believe, an o pinlon prevailing in soma portions of the Stale, that all the interest manifested in or ganizing Medical Societies, is Utile less than a systematic plan lo eiiliur the peeuntary rewards of .the profession, without any refer enee at all to the welfare of the eoniinuiulv; and ii is bui a very faint expression of our J teeliiigs, when we say, wa are pained to know thai there are men claiming tha dignified title of Doctor of .Vjedicino who pander to this false prejudice, that their success in basinets, (which it left lo rest on die claims of muni a louo, would ba paltry iudwd.) might be en hanced. Th.a very rcpreheusibU conduct de serves, and should receive the discountenance of every good citizen, and particularly every honorable gentleman in Ihe profession. Again: How common has il become, too, among ourselves, to pursue s system of unjust detraction and unmanly innuendo against some brother practitioner, whose Superior in dustry and skill is elevating him in the estimation of the community above his coteiu poraries? Injury, directly-or indirectly in dicted, seems lobe the fortune of almost every young medical aspirant in tha Stale, who pre sumes lo claim thai slurs in the credit and nioluiueir.i of the profession to which his merits may entitle him.
