MORAL or THE PRoBANG WAR.-Wc do not be-
lieve that the public will be quite satisfied with
the complacent way in which the doctors have
hushed up the Whitney case. We believe, taking
the alarming statistics Of city mortality along
with the doctors own showing, that the medical
profession is public nuisance, and that between
ignorant, gossiping physicians, and slashing,
butchering surgeons, patients have generally to
rely upon the natural strength Of their constitu-
tons, not only TO conquer disease, but to over
come the effect Of the pretended remedies which
are applied by their medical advisers. We
should not make Wholesale charge against
any profession without proof That proof is
before the public in the debates Of the Academy
Of Medicine, which were yesterday spread before
the readers Of this Journal. The Academy of
Medicine purports TO be the fountain head of
medical and surgical learning, not only for this
city, but for the whole country. Its weekly
meetings should be devoted to interchanges Of
opinion upon professional subjects, calm discus
sons of new theories, and dispassionate analyses
of cases. Humbly acknowledging their igno-
rance of the great mysteries Of nature, the Eel
lows should come together to compare notes and
mutually exchange the results of their expe.
riences. That is what they ought to do But,
on the contrary, We find the fashionable Physi-
clan gossiping about from house TO house, cod.
ding up the old ladies, sugaring the young ones,
and bread pilling everybody. On the other hand
Is the butcher, with his knives and ances, and
caustcs, and all the dread artillery of sur.
