QUACKS AND QJACkERlES.

The labors and researches Of the physician, made
prblic through considerations of humanity, are toe
sen seized upon by rapacious Cusckery, Turned int
CHAIR es of uIug selhshness, and made the IN
sirumerts OF evil rather than good. In tins manner
msny OF the brishest discoveries OF human genius
have Be. degraded by vile and Inscriptions imits
tions, which, assuming the same nsme and wearing
the sane garb, have been thIus; before The people
Nothing Is more truly humiliating to the physician
who with high purposes, lsbors through weary years
TO ok out the gIea problem Of science TO which hs
has coveted himself than 10 sec the first announce
ent of bis eagerly seized upon by Glass Of
praiicai auacks, who live and grow fat upon other
mems labor. This class is as old as the days OF VIZ
gil
is a. applicable at the present day as when ne old
poet chab ed Il upon the walls Of Rome. No sooner
Goes tie physician proclaim the truths he has discOv
cred and the knowledge he possesses, than de1eo
hungry rostrum st o work 20 enrich Them
selves with the fruits of his toll. The charlatan, the
ousck the greedy adventurer, begins bis trade by
s.ocistiny himsef with the the ~ steuswhich

bis power to confound and mslosa the public TO his
own advantage.
In the ordinary affairs Of life such deception is at
tended with only passing cousequenccs-the loss OF
few dollars watch, horse, or of property more con-
siderable IN value-and in most instances Is amenabe

''ps,ent me dicnes the contrary, health-uay, lite
itself-is daily sacrificed, and yet the law has power
to afford prott elton the afflicted, accord punish
