P;icta s-istaiu tho' assertion that our;;i best
farmers, our most succVfsful producers,
bur first citizens, our truest patriots our
noblest heroes, pnd most distinguished
scientists and philanthropists are found
in the ranks of this humane and useful
calling, How ever grudgingly the practi--Uour.of-
ineilicino -paid for his serf ifes,
the advance of intelligence and progress
of science, make him more and morp : an
indis eus ible requisite in any community,
and the woijd now respects and honors
the faitlifnl physician more than at; any
previous tinie.
JNorth Uarplina is tlie equaioi any iptaie
in the learning, genius, skill and originality-of
bur medical men. Accustomedirom
noci-Av. us so manv of them are -from
their isolation, to depend upon! themsel
ves, this begets a I discipline of thought
and action-fa habit of self-reliance, which
is conducive to soundness of judgment,
promptness in action, aud fertility of re
sources to be found, as said by the illus
trious surgeon, ! Dr. Valentine Mott,
amoug country practitioners tban city
phvsicians.s There are no doubt numbers
of the ablest and best physicians of the
United States now practising medicine
and surgery in North Carolina. -If 1 there
is an inappreciation of this fact in the
disposition bf so j paany patients to go
Nor.h for treatment or for surgical bpera
tions, it is only a verification of the, old
sayin tijat a prophet is not without honor
save in his own oountry. Some of the
best physicians in Philadelphia, Balti
more, and JNew York are North Caroliuiaus
products,
born,' from
native and to the manner
North Carolina. f
This train of thought is suggested by a
recent able and brilliant production of one
bf onr most talented tnd promising physi
cians upon the important subject of Heri
dity in its relations to the alarming in
crease of mental, moral and physical; dis
eases. The occasion was the recent semi
annual meeting at Newbern of theEfetern
Medical Association, and the gent' email is
that ripe scholar: arid accomplished ! prac
titioner, James F. liorig, of Newberru
lie is bl azing a new path in the inyitiug
field of medico legal science, if we may so
term it.' He! entertained the Assnjciation
in a
hig'ulyl i
i5tructive and eloquent mau-
ner with
un
hour's address, novel-- and
a nee, scrotula, consumption, &c. vitn an
array of facti, cogency ofj reasoniugi and
power of pernnasion difficult to res. si,' the
Doctor contends that there should be
legislative action in additional restriction
upon marriage, and that the plei- of; nCn
compos mevtit vheu well sustained,
should held by ijho Legislature tb be
competent cause; for jlivercc. No- jess
logical and' weighty 'are his arguments
that insanity! and. intemperance :pe.r sc
should he held as positive and sufficient
grounds for divorce.' He insists tljat a
well established character for sobriety is a
-mi i n a
condition precedent to the granting iof a
marringe lieiube. "With much force and
strong reasoning does he demand, th.t the

HisI argument that the good of the State
combfnea with the interests of t humanity
and the teachings of science in demanding
the adoption of his propositions of health
and of relief from errors and evils which
so .deeply and universally afflict the human
family, invites the serious consideration J
of parents, patriot?, legislators ' aud phi
lanthropists. It opens up a new , field of
thought to all who appreciate the alarming

consjiraption, Ac. Jt provokes the ntteu-r
tion of all who would : stay the ruthless
savage pf intemperance, and avert the
well known hereditary appetite of a love
of alcoholio .drinks. It demands "from
legislators a reeximihation of the nature
of the marriage ties aud of the law of- di

thelbver of his country and of his race
who opens his eyes to the physical degen
eracy going on the United States, and the
consequent unhealthy moral, social and
mentjii condition of society, especially as
pertaining to the rising generation,
T)t Iibng may be ahead of the times in
his lpjans for ameUorating , ther condition
of society. Innovations and reforms like
those he advocates have always aroused

to put on the corset. lie removed his

clasping the corset behind him he put
the strings bask and tied them in froutf

his coat, picked up his basket and appear
ed oh the street again, hat slanted over
his ear, and his look betraying his great
pride. . - .
'Great goats I but what's tbat ? shouted
the boys, as they caught sight of him.aud

The Indian presented a most langliable
spectacle as he passed up the avenue, bat
he stepped high and did u't mind tho boys
until a policeman stopped him and "a crowd
gathered. Lo then got it ' through his
