others. for the benefit of ali. In this way
most important facts are made known and
knowledge, important to ali, more widely
aifused. These highly important ends can
be more certainly attained by organizing
County Societies and holding meetings at
stated periods, for hearing reports of inter-
esting cases and discussing subjects per-
tanning to the profession. And in no other
way eau we so certainly secure due obser-
vance of our admirable code of ethics, an
adheraOce to which is so indispensable TO
pleasant and honorable intercourse with
members of the profession and physicians
more than any other class of men should
cultivate kindness and cherish for each 9TH
er the wsrmest friendship. Another con-
sideration connected with this subject is
this, viz at the last annual meeting of Tenn
essee Medical Society a new Constitution
was adopted, making it necessary hereafter
for any desiring to become members of the
State Society to present themselves as dele
ga,es from County Societies.
Respectfully.

Craeksmen On the Rampage.

Last Saturday night par vi gay aud
festive burglars entered the residence Of
Gen. Jno. c. Brown and cut some funny
capers. They entered through a parlOr
window and found their way into the din
Jog room. PDfering was certainly not
their object. as nothing has been missed,
though they scattered things generally
With key which they brought with them,
Which they left in the lock, they entered
the Generals secretary and tumbled up bis
papers considerably, but leaving unmolest-
"a email Dag OF hard currency. They
disposed of few bottles of the Generals
best wine, leaving The goblets out of which
they drank on the centre table in the parlor
beside back CANNON board and dice, over
which they doubtless had a merry time. A
silver fork and butter knife were found Just
outside the window. which they had been
using upon the cold victuals found in the
dining room, though they left untouched a
nice fresh baked cake which had been
laid away for sundry. A magnificent gold
headed cane which was in full view was
not molested. The General thinks that
they were a very geutlemenly set of bur-
glars and cannot understand their mystsri-
Gus proceedings.

As matter of interest, not only to the

err, we give place 10 tue following circular
from the President of the Tennessee Medi-

the observation OF every medical practition-

By a resolution of the Tennessee Medi-

you in reference to the importance of the

to respectfully invite your attention to this
all important subject. AS the benefits re-
sulting to the profession, and through the
profession to the people, are too obvious to
require special or detailed enumeration q
few of the more prominent may be suggest

bound by the most weighty considerations
to maintain a familiarity with the progress

discharged by the different branches of

and from other causes. Please use all
tie influence you can exert 70 check

tress is reported among the working
classes of Quebec. The Montreal Board
of Trade met to-day to devise means of
relief.
Developments in regard to Henry, the
liquor dealer who absconded to the
States, show loss to the customs
through his operations of about 1920
600. 4 portion of his CELLAR was set
apart as bonded warehouse, and it is
supposed he drew the liquor by means
of suction-pump, dispOsing of it to
customers on the ground floor, subse-
quently substituting water for the
liquor.
There are nearly 200 similar bonded
warehouses in the city, and some reform
ia the system is loudly called for.
