THE RUGELEY MURDERS.
Sea,—ln this terrible case, suppose that Palmer had relied
upon his professional character and pleaded that the poisons bad
been given medicinally, we have yet to learn how such a criminal
could have been brought to the bar of justice. Would not the court
and judges have been helpless in such a case? James Morison, the
Ilygelst, warned the country of this years ago, and now the dreadful
cf nsequence has come to pass. Well may Mr. Hibbert, of Manches-
ter, in his public letter say, " that Hygeists, by reason of their pro-
test against all these vile poisons, hold at this moment one of the
proudest situations in her Majesty's dominions."
Dr. Prater, of London, 'n his work, is the only medical man who
has had the honesty to do Mr. Morison justice on this question, by
statirg " that to Morison the country was indebted for lifting his
voles against these poisons." Queen Elizabeth used to say,. Prero-
gativain nostram, nemo audeat disputare ;" and Palmer, in reference
to these vile poisons administered medicinally, rif ght have said the
same thing.

We are, sir, your obedient servants,
THE MENtIIEIt4 OF THE BRITISH COLLEGE OF HEALTH,
Now-road, London, for the Society of Ilygeists.
Jan. 18, 1456.

Bygeists do not war with doctors as men, well knowing that there
are many most learned and good men in the medical profession, but
against their system, which sanctions the use of these infernal poisons
as medicines.
