A Board of Medical Ernninera-

The Medical Society of Virginia, which has
been Incorporated by act of the Legislature.
has petitioned that body 10 establish Board
of Medical Examiners, whose duty it shall be
to examine every person who shall hereafter
wish to practice in the State, and to declare
by law that no person who shall not receive
the certificate of such Board, shall be allowed
to practice. We think the idea a yery good
one, as II Is calculated to protect the commune
~ against qnackery; an evil with which il is
deeply affected at present. We understand
the proposed method of choosing the Board to
be as follows: The Medical Society. which
meets once year, viii appoin, from its own
body eleven persons as cand dates, Of,bese IN.
Governor is TO select seven, who are to ,c,a
Medical Examiners for the year. Tbese r.
ah'ners are TO meet twice year, for the MR.
pose OF examining applicants for the rich, ~

and once IN the western. The idea seem. = -
the same with that pursued with regard to s,u.
dents OF law, who obtain d diploma d, the tn;
