That work is usually understood to indicate the introduction of nsages sym bolizing docti ines which tho Church, since the reformation, has held lo be erroneous aud strange, or nsagt-s which at the best have been rejected by her and thereby become olsole'.e. In the former are to here k med ench usages as prostrations or genuflexions before ihe cousecraled ele ments in the Lord's Supper, the receiving of I h'ose elements from the Priest in the aicruli rather than in the band, auricular confession - which, if not a part of Ritu alism, is at least associated with it Sac raments celebrated in behalf of the dead i as well as the living, and acts and services of the like nature. In the second class are tha use of incense and candles on the altar for purposes other than that of light, and gorgeous vestments set aside by the Church ot England for time centuries and never known among us until recently. I The introduction of usages of this sort by an individual minister or particular I congregation indicates disrespect, if not disloyalty to the church, and, if persisted in, will necessitate coercive legislation in itself an evil, but less intolerable than oeu iuc.i.ib I , t . . land channels in His Church; Truth hed , o, young pnysic.au. pre.,,. l lie in.

We learn with much pleasure that thia large and influential association of medi cal gentlemen, had a most harmonious and interesting meeting at Salisbury on the 12th of this mouth. The meeting was well attended, quite spirited, and con tinued its sessions for three consecutivo days. It adjourned to meet in the city of Wilmington on the 4th Wednesday in May I870. Never were the Society more cordially received, never were they treat ed with more generous hospitality, than did tho medical profession, and kind hearted citizens of Salisbury, receive and treat this meat devoted, enterprising and useful body of Physicians and Surgeons of Km tb Carolina. We print in another column the warm-hearted welcome ex tended to the Society by Dr. Whitehead, on behalf of the profession and citizens of that town, and direct attention to the passing tribute which he so appropriately pays to the lamented Dr. Dickson, of this city, who was one of tho noblest and molt accomplished practioner in the whole country.

A committee wae appointed to issue an address to the Profession of the State in behalf of ihe object, of the Board and of the Society.

The only thing we regret very much about the proceedings, is the fact that Mr. Mooney, of Albemarle, was not put on the Board of Directors. The great ob ject should have been to piotnote the in terest of the road and not to compliment individuals. If ithcre was any one man at the meeting more zealous than another, in the cause, any one who had already doue more than any one else, to promote the success of the enterprise, and ready still to do more, not only by the exercise of his influence, but by the contribution of his oteaey e and hie property, it waa Mr. Mooney. He was the choice of his North Carolina colleagues, and his fitness for any position on the board waa well es tablished by the excellence of his views expressed at this meeting, his practical suggestions, and bis modest bearing. We can't understand why such a man, of all others, shouldhave been left out.
