m-THE GREAT MEDICAL MISTAKE Oh

@THE GREAT MEDICAL MISTAKE OF
former days was utter neglect of sanitary precau-
tions No efficient means were adopted for the pr e.
cities; drainage was rarely attempted in the country
Heaps of o6al were left to rot In the public Streets
and domestic cleanliness, the great antidote to fe-
bre diseases, was sadly neglected. 1t Is not so now
Wise laws phianthropic institutions, and vigiant
sanitary police, have, TO great extent remedied the
evil. Nor is this all. Preventive medication has
helped materially to lesson the rates of mortality. 1t

BY some means, the bedding OF some ne

to announce that the Governor give the matter
his immediate attention, and has written
communication to The chairman OF tho Board
warning him of his course-and directing tho
Board to appoint mono but competent persons
as Managers at tho several precincts. Gov.
Scott says it is his purpose to administer the
laws of the Stale upon principles of equity to-
ward all classes; and no other course pursued
by subordnatcs will be tolerated. The Mama

The Charleston daily news. [volume] (Charleston, S.C.) 1865-1873, 1868-11-02

discussion here ensued, in the course OF which
the question: of the liability Of Governor Scott
to suit was brought up. On this point Mr.
Hayne made the following distinction That
as far as taking possession OF the assets ol
the bank was concerned, converting then,
into money and paying them over into the
treasury of the State, Governor Scott might
be considered simply as receiver, Just as ii
Mr.. Brown or Mr. Jones had been appointed to
perform those duties but after the money was
paid into the treasury of the State. the receiver
would be functus o6fcio, and Governor Scott,
as R. Z. Scott, would have no more authority
over the fund than any other person that could
be imagined. The moneyis directed by the act
to be deposited subject to the order ofthe "Gov-
ernor," and if Gov. Scott were deposed or re-
signed, or his term Of Office were expired, and q
successor inaugurated il his place, the fund
would be liable to the order OF such successor,
or the Legislature might by another act di-
rect the money to be held subject to the order
of some other person, so that it WAS not
possible to regard Governor Scott as trustee
for he would have no real control over the
subject Of the trust. Ii there was any trust
created by the act, it was in the State, and tho
State could not be sued, so that the act vir-
tually put the funds beyond the control Of
creditors which was contrary to the authority
of the case OF Curran Us. the State Of Ar
kansas.
When Mr.. Campbell resumed his argument,
nf 1r, AZ o,,H Of
counsel to the fact that all we're agreed that
the profits of the bank had been pledged to tho
foreign bondhclders. He was prepared to
prove that there were no assets of the bank re-
naming except the accumulated profits. The
capital had all been returned to the State with
interest at the rate Of seven per cent; and he
read from the accounts OF the Earrings against
the bank, which were on record as part OF the
evidence, to show that such was the case.
Mr. Campbell then made O resume Of his
argument, and concluded with an eloquent and
brilliant peroration, expressing his sense Of
the grave responsibility of the case, his thanks
for the patient aud attentive hearing which it
had received, and his confidence that Justice
Willard would decide it IN accordance with the
law.
MIR. Campbell's speech occupied fully four
hours, and the above is but very imperfect
sketch Of the line uf his Argument.
At the conclusion of his speech some dis
cussion arose as to whether, if the maanda'nus
were granted, it should be alternative OR
peremptory. The counsel for the respondents
claimed that there should be separate hear
ing on that point if necessary, but the oppos-
ing counsel objected, aud Justice Willard de-
cided that he would receive authorities and
points submitted in writing, and decide the
whole case together.

General Rousseau, By request, last night
visited the club rooms of the 1n1ocents. This
is the club which has been most prominent in
the troubles with the negroes, and in which
considerable feeling still existed on account OF
the death and wounding of several of their
members. In short speech, Rousseau warn
ed them that responsibility for all outrages and
disorder in New Orleans was laid on his shoul-
ders, and that he looked to them to keep the
peace and encourage others to do the same.
He said he felt it his duty to tell them that the
law must be observed, and tLat every man who
has the right shall vote unmolested on election
day. General Rousseau was enthusiastically
received, and the club pledged themselves to
obey his wishes.
During the recent troubles. the presence OF
few United States uniforms has always been
sufficient to restore order. Rousseau's force
of troops in the city at no time exceeded few
hundred men.

The resolutions which form this amendment
supersede both the majority and minority re-
ports, and simply request the bishops to set
forth for consideration and adoption, by the

brics in the prayer book as III their judgment
may be deemed necessary. Meanwhile, it is
recommended that in all matters doubtful, re-

that no changes should be made against the
counsel and judgment of the bishop.
