DEPUTATION TO SIR GEORGE GREY ON
MEDICAL REFORM.

Yesterday afternoon one of the most important

and influential deputations of the " Heads of

Houses" of the meeical profession that has ever
been formed, had au interview, by appointment,
with Sir George Grey, at the Home-office, White-
hall.

The deputation consisted of Dr. Mayo, president
of the College of Physicians, London ; Dr. Alder-
son, treasurer of the college ; Dr. Hawkins, regis-
trar;. Dr. Burrowes, a member of the council, and
senior physician to St. Bartholomew's Hospital ;
Mr. Travers, presithnt, and Mr. J. H. Gieene, and
Mr. Stanley, vice-presidents of the College of Sur-
geons, England; Dr. Williams, Dublin, president of
the College of Surgeons, Ireland ; Dr. Neligan,
senior censor of the King's and Queen's College of
Physicians, Ireland ; Dr. Hunter, president of the
Faculty of Physicians of Glasgow ; Dr. Wood, pre-
sident of the College of Su►geons of Edinburgh ;
Mr. Tegart, chairman of the Court of Examiners
of the Society of Apothecaries, London ; Mr. De
Vere, of the Court of Assistants, Arc. kc.
Sir Geo. Grey was accompanied by the Hon.
W. F. Cowper, vice-president of the Committee
of the Council on Education, and who took part in
the proceedings.

Mr. MAYO introduced the deputation ; and in
doing so, said he trusted that the profession at
large had arrived at such an amount of unanimity
as was possible, and, when it was considered into
how many sections they are divided, greater than
what had ever been obtained before. They had
come to support the bill of Mr. Headlam, a bill
lb ii tlielilioloafession, and 4410,..pub1i0 with
-
it, in its favour. He' was aware that there wd.s
another bill before Parliament, that of Lord Elcho,
which contained a provision for the nomination
of the members of the now governing council
by the Crown. Mr. Headlam's bill, which had
been adopted by the deputation, had the same
provision for six vacancies, and it Was reasonable
to conceive that a large portion of the council to be
elected should belong to the medical body. Their
proposed medical bill far surpassed Lord Elcho's,
as it would tend-to improve, the status of the body
in general, giving large opportunities to every sec-
tion for that preliminary education which was so
essential to every branch ' of' the profession. It
began at that enly period which was so
necessary to the progress of medical. science.
Lord Elcho's bill did not meet the necessities of the
case ; and these were points which were clearly in
their favour, and which he desired to press upon
the attention of the Government. They hoped
tl.at no delay in passing the measure would take
place, as there were a number of gentlemen waiting
for examination at the various institutions, as in
the present state of affairs they did not know what
would be done.

Sir GEGRGE GREY said that it appeared to him
the dissentients to Mr. Headlam's bill and its sup-
porters held similar views with respect to general
principles, and differed only in matters of detail.
Dr. MAYO said that the points of each differed,
and it appeared to a great majority of the profes-
sion that those points were of vital importance.

Dr. HAWKINS said that a memorial was about to
be presented to Parliament, going fully into the de-
tails and the points of difference, and which, with
the permission of the right hon. baronet, he would
read.

Sir GEORGE GREY assented, and the document
was real, 04frer which he asked if he was to under-
stand that 411 branches of the profession represented
by the deputation had agreed as to which was the
best measure ?
Dr. MAYo said—Yes; all had agreed ; and he was
authorised to inform the right hon. baronet, that
the British MediCal Association, although a non-
corporate' body, was a most influential one, and it
supported Mr. Headlam's bill.
Sir GEO. GREY was glad to hear that the medical
profession was so unanimous now, as Dr. Mayo had
stated. He understood that tile-bill brought in by
Lord Elcho was not his own bill, but one that he had
taken up from some other person since last session.
The Hon. W. F. CowrEß,said, with regard to
unanimity, he had waited for that opinion, and
therefore he took it for granted that it was settled
among the profession to support Mr. Headlam's
bill.

Dr. WILLIAMS, President of the College of
Surgeons, Ireland, said that he had come expressly
from Dublin, in company with his colleague, Dr.
Neligan, to express the approval of the bodies with
whom they are connected with Mr. Headlam's bill.
Ten medical corporations were unanimous in their
support of it, and in the condemnation of Lord
Elcho's. His lordship's bill confiscated the revenues
of the corporations, and took the management of
their affairs away altogether, vesting that power
iu nominees appointed by the Crown. They had
twenty-one licensing bodies agreeing with them.
The Universities of Oxford, Cambridge, and London
had not declared, but as far as they had spoken they
were in favour of the bill of the deputation. Lord
Elcho's measure, if allowed to pass, would render
the licences of the licensing bodiesvalueless, whilst
Mr. Headlam's bil would tend to raise the standard
of education, and elevate the social status of the
profession. Dr. Williams then entered into a de-
tail of his objections, and concluded by remarking
that the bill of Lord Elcho was looked upon in
Ireland as a most grievous blow to the welfare of
the whole profession.
Dr. WOOD, President of the College of Surgeons,
Edinburgh, and Dr. HUNTER, President of the
Faculty of Physicians and Surgeons, Glasgow, fol-
lowed with arguments on the same side, saying,
that their respective institutions had unanimously
agreed to support the bill of Mr. Headlam as the
best, and, in fact, the only bill of the profession.
Sir G. GREY, having asked some questions,
thanked the gentlemen for the information they
had given him, and the deputation then retired.

Mr. HEADLAM, M.P., also introduced a depu-
tation of medical graduates, consisting of Dr.
O'ConnorlDr. Maclean, Dr. Adlington, Dr. Sib-
bold, and Dr. Wardner, upon the same subject.
Dr. O'CONNOR said that he knew the Govern-
ment was fully aware of the necessity that had
long existed for the reform of the medical corpora-
tions of the country.
Sir GEORGE GREY replied, of that he was per-
fectly satisfied, and he was glad that Mr. Cowper
was, present, as that gentleman had paid great
attention to the subject.
Dr. O'CoNNou was cognisant of that, as he had
on many occasions communicated with Mr. Cowper
upon the subject. The object of the deputation,
now that the question which had so long agitated
the profession had been reduced to so narrow a corn-
pao, was to express an earnest hope that the Govern-
ment, in giving any countenance or support to
either of the bills now before Parliament, would be
guided only by a regard for the interests of the
public, and the promotion of sound medical and
surgical knowledge. The bills of Mr. Headlam
and Lord ElCho Laving the same objects in view,
differed most mate,rially in the mode of attaining
the desired end. The very conflicting interests in-
volved in the measurer would he hoped lead the
Government to support that measure which the
profession had declared to be the best—the bill of
Mr. Headlam.
Dr. O'CoNNoR, having fully eiplained the views
of the deputation upon the question, thanked the
right hon. gentlemen for their attention, and
withdrew.

THE PUBLIC .71,TGHWAY NUISANCE.

SUN•

TO THE EDITOR OF THE
Sin,—May I ask the favour of you to insert a few
words on the above subject. I kno' that your valuable
space is fully occupied at this season, I will therefore be
brief.
The particular nuisance to which I would draw tho
attention of the public is that especially observable in
bitechapel and Mile-end. In this instance one of the
most open and pleasant of the roads leading out of the
obstructed and disfigured,
metropolis is shamef y
ull
old shoes, brokery, and fish-stalls, the garbage of which is
daily flung about right and left, and there left to petrify.
With these are blended a mucky assortment of odds and
ends, forming a palpable exhibition of a most woful
neglect of duty of the local authorities.
The Times, sir, has called us in Whitechapel and
Mile-end, a " rough lot," and truly I must say that
should an individual stray by chance from better man-
aged districts, and behold the grim condition of our
main thoroughfare, he would consider the designation a
just one.
Cannot the nuisance be got rid on I will not write
further a,t present, hoping, ygive me insertion,
that on can
that the matter may be taken up by those who have the
Power ,that is,. if they lack not the courage) to accom-
plish 1 ,he good work.
