Virginia Medical Collegc-Northern LprressIop.

Aessrs. Editcrs:-I desire with your kind permission
to call the attention Of the people Of the South to the
fragrant abuse that IL daily heaped upon them by their
Northern BRETHREN aud their disregard Of all establish
ed Law as exhibited by tho mob 10 Boston, which
resulted in tho death Of Government Officer whilst In the
faithful discharge OF his duty.
We have heretofore calmly born insult upon insult
hen We have been revled and struck upon check
We have with meekness turned the other. We still con
unue at Sataoga, Newport Boston and other places
MI the purses of our Northern Abolition foes. We have
suffered our schools and colleges lanpush aud die
that we might build up those of enemies Our prop
erty has been stolen and the fair of the South cal
minated. Is lot this enough
Will parents and guardians and Young men contipue
10 patronze Northern Schools whilst they have in their
midst Schools and Colleges which should be their pride
to foster and cherish? For instance in the city of
Richmond there Is a Medical School, whose faculty il
composed of tho ablest that the profession affords
and OF which Virginia should be proud Yet look at the
catalogues OF Northern Schools. You may count hun
dreds OF Eirginians upon the list. Why is thss Is is
because the Southern Student has better opportunity
acquiring Medical education the North than in Virgil
MA or any other Southern Slater Assuredly not for
weEknown FACT that the of study the North
gives the Southern student insight into the theory
practice oil the maaria diseases of the South. Indeed
Northern lecturers absolutely know nothing Of diseases
which are purely endemica of the South
With these facts before the people, It will be we'll for
the Southern student before he establishes himself
in Northern school. II he returns home with diplo.
ina in his pocket it will he in effect but piece Of blank
parchment for he will have acquired insight into the
peculiar diseases Of the people and climate in which he
expects to practice On the other hand graduate
OF our schools will have had the advsnsge not only
Of theoretical instruction, but also Of daily practical
servation He goes forth with thoroughly enlightened
mind fully understanding the people aud the diseases Pc
culiar To the climate in which he fixes his abode.
The Medical College of Virginia stands pre- eminenty
high. IL Is 10 this school that the people Of Virginia
North Carolina and other Southern States should direct
their attention The Coleg. building is of beautiful and
gigantic proportions possessing large and magnificent
museum inrmary ALWAYS full where the student has
the advantage of daily clinics at the bedside.
The graduates Of this school rank the very highest in
their profession, Of whom are shedding lusre
upon their "Alma Mater" professors in southern ns
tutions NORTH CAROLINA.
