Sparkling CataEs I'm Springs.

We direct attention TO the advertisement
of Col. J. GOLDEN WYATr, announcing the
summer opening of the far-famed Spark
ling Catawba Springs npon the first OF
June. There are few places which offer
to the tourist, the pleasure seeker or the
invalid, more inducements than are held
out by the Sparkling Catawba Springs. -
Comfortable rooms, good fare, cool and
healthy climate, and medicinal waters OF
unsurpassed excellence are among the chief
attractions OF the place.
The Proprietor is q liberal and genial
gentleman, and spares no pains or expense
TO provide for the comfort and pleasures of
his guests His terms are extremely mod
crate, much more SO than at any similar
resort in This State or Virginia. We can
fully testify from personal experience TO
the many eScelIorcies Of the waters, the
salubrity oi tue climate, and the liherality
and attention OF the management.

We learn with much pleasure that this

of this month. Tie meeting was well at

sessions for three consecutive days. 1t ad-

on the 4th Wednesday i'll May 1870.
Never were the Society more cordially re-

generous hospitality, than did the medi-

of Salisbury, receive and treat this most
devoted, enterprising. and useful body of

warm hearted welcome extended to the
Society by DR.. Whitehead, on behalf of the

direct attention to the passing tribute
which he so appropriately pays to the
lamented DR.. Dickson, of this city, who
was one of the noblest and most accom-
plshed practitioners in this whole coun.
try.
Over fifty members attended, and nu-
merous aceessions were made. Oral and
written communications of most practical
and useful character were made on medical
subjects, and the meeting has given a new
impetus to tue cause of medical science,

Imperialism.

A contemporary referring to the imperial
many honest, short-sighted people ridicule
the movement, but in the condition of the
country to-day. and with the temper of the
public mind, trained as it has been to
submission and acquiescence in every des-
potic act complete change in our whole
system of government might be effected in
twenty four hours without the slightest eff
fort at resistance. A people who have sub
mitted to so many outrages and usurpa-
tons are prepared 10 submit to a great
sort of stuff now that it was two or five
thousand years ago. Selfishness is the
most prominent thread that runs through
both the warp and the wool of its texture.
The cunning and the aspiring know how
to promote their own selfish views by en-
listing in their cause the selfish feelings of
the multitude. Men, like fish, provided
the hook is concealed, greedily swallow
the bait. This fact vas proven by the
ease with which they were carried by the
enthusiasm that precipitated the country
into civil war, not foreseeing the dread
full consequences that were to be entailed
on themselves. The hook was adroitly
concealed by the ingenuity OF the unprin-
cipled demagogues who stirred mp the
elements Of strife that they
might ride into power, place and
wealth, and now laugh at the dupes who
were SO easily gulled. So here with this
movement in favor of an imperialism, the
great mass are to be deluded and the idea
that employment and comfortable subsis-
tence can now only be attained through
the influence of strong government that
a republican form has failed TO confer it,
and therefore let some other be tried.
10 every profession and vocation, there
are daily evidences of tho progress of this
delnsive and damnable idea There are
shrewd men engineering this scheme, and
there are shrewd men. also, ready and
willing TO be caught in its cogs, who will
tell you that there is 10 danger of being
crushed-that the Empire is peace, Sc
curity, prosperity, order law, and justice
that republican institutions have failed
utterly to secnr" either. In exchange for
the evils we nov suffer, land they are ad-
mitted to he great,) they would have
grand central iron-handed bureaucracy,
with branch bureaus supervising and con-
trolling every mans business, invested
with the unlimited privilege to tax without
responsibility the labor of all. This was
the point to which we started in 1861, and
we have got so near, that even sound
minded men have endured and pitied,
until they are prepared to admire and en-
brace it with all its consequences.
For one We cannot consent, and advise
chat it is better to bear the ills we have
than fatuously to leap open-eyed into such
an abyss.

mands the highest confidence OF the Pro-
fession without as we'll as within the State,
aud it is high time that our medical men
who are practising without its authority
should bear more seriously in mind the in
justice they are doing themselves, their
profession, the public and the law.
A committee was appointed to issue an
address TO the Profession of the State in
behalf OF the objects of the Board and of
the Society. This committee we're instruc-
ted to appeal to the Profession to arouse
themselves to the great work of medical
improvement, and of medical organization
The State Medical Society stands with
open arms to invite cooperation from all
honorable aud regular physicians, and ap
peals for the cordial support of the Pro-
fession IL every county of the State, in
each one of which auxiliary medical socie-
ties should be established and sustained
in wholesome work and lsef ri progress.
\ committee was also appointed to ask
the Legislature for the passage of a law to
secure faithful registration of the marri-
ages, births and deaths in the State. The
importance OF such law is too evident to
need argument. The lawyer as we'll as the
physician, the legislator as we'll as the his
torian, the philantbroa;st as well as the
patriot, devoted to the material improve
ment of North Carolins, and who wishes
to hold her up to the immigrant as she is,
the healthiest State in the Union, are all
well-wishers, it is hoped of this wise
measure.
The Society asserted the right of the
Profession to claim compensation when
their opinions are invoked in medico- legal
questions. Physicians are constantly being
taken from their daily practice to the court
room to give ia evidence in cases of medi-
cal jurisprudence and other matters of
medico-legal nature. and compensation for
their professional services in these impor-
tant, often VITAL questions is not allowed
them. The Society takes the position that
no physician is bound to give his medical
opinion, unless paid for it by law Or the
parties at issue, even at the risk OF being
sent to Jail for refusing until payment is
secured.
A committee was appointed to report at
the next meeting upon the whole subject
of medical experts and their fees
Tins did the Society meet and transac-
ted much important business Much was
done that will rebound to the usefulness
of the Profession and the good of the
whole community. AS means alone of
social improvement to profession whose
members are too seldom together these an
nual communions are worth the sacrifice
made by all who attend. Let them go Oh
and gather strength and influence with
each revolving year. Aud let the next
meeting, to be held here in May next be
the largest, grandest aud most usefnl and
pleasant of n!i.

mingle our tears of sorrow and regret at
their loss. we may yet congratulate our
selves that such men haze HUed and were
members of our Society.
It is spectacle of moral grandeur de-

so many physicians from different parts of
our State-not for purposes OF personal
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT, not to secure the success
of this or that party, but to concert with
each other and devise the best means for
advancing the science of medicine and for
alleviating the condition of suffering hu-

the appreciation and good will Of the
public.
May the consciousness that Your efforts
to benefit your noble profession have been
appreciated and acknowledged excite in
you the honorable ambition of doing all
that you can to alleviate the sufferings,
