ADDRESS 10 THE

Medical Profession of MiSSiSs1 pp1.
At the late Convention of the Medical As
ISOLATION of the State. the undersigned were
appointed a Committee TO address the Medi-
cal Profession therein, urging upon them
the immediate organization of kindred
county and local Societies, whose duty it
shall be to cooperate in the great work of
establishing a high standard of Medical
Ethics, and of advancing the Interests of
Medical Science in our State.
The urgent necessity for such cOmbina-
ton of the Profession in Mississippi, though
long neglected, has been deeply felt and
universally acknowledged. 1t is due alike
to ourselves, to the people, and to the Pro-
fession throughout the whole country, of
which we form an integral part. The bene-
fetal results of such organizations through
out the United States and in all parts of the
Scientific World, is a standing reproach and
q daily rebuke to US. With profession full
of individual capacity and attainments-
with great variety of diseases peculiar to
our climate and local conditions, the field of
our labors is one of most comprehensive
and inviting character; and if entered upon
with united effort, energy and spirit equal
to the occasion, promises not only great
benefits to ourselves and the public, but a
higher status to each individual member of
our profession. 1t is palpable TO all that til :
duty of an eXertiOn is incumbent on each
and every one of us, and that the objects to
be attained are we'll worthy the effort. To
present the subject is to exhaust the argu-
ment and we will not undervalue the intel
ligence of our medical brethren by labored
effort to establish selfseYident truths. Then
let Associations be formed in every portion
of the State without delay, and the great
work already begun, meet with that support
which it richly deserves.
Means are necessary to advance the work,
and physicians are urged to unite themselves
to the State Medical Association without
waiting for local organizations, This can
be done by paying the initiation fee of two
dollars, to DIR. Lea, of Winona, Mississippi,
who is the Recording Secretary OF the State
Medical Association, to whom all communi-
cations are to be addressed ~

HOW THE FREEDMEN WILL VOTE.

VALUE OF CABRAGE.-For several
weeks past, large and round cabbage
heads have been selling for thirty and
forty cents each, many of which would
scarcely fill peck measure. Allowing
each cabbage to occupy, while growing, a
superficial area of nine square feet, 1910
cabbages may be grown on one acre,
which, if sold for only ten cents per head,
would amount to SAB for the product of
a single acre The amount of manure
requisite for one acre, together with the
expense incurred in cultivation, would not
exceed $3.50, thus leaving clear profit OF
1884 per acre. For men at distance
from New York could appropriate two or
three acres Of their richest land to cab
bage, and thus make three or four times
as much as they do now. Every plant
needs quart or two of good compost de-
posted where the roots may feed on

Scrofula, or Kings Evil,


is constitutional disease corruption Of the
blood, by which this fluid becomes vitiatcd,
weak, and poor. Being in the circulation, il
pervades the whole body, and may burst out
in disease on any part Of it. No organ is free
from its attacks, nor is there one which il may
not destroy. The scrofulous faint is variously
caused by mercurial disease, low living, dis
ordered or unhealthy food, impure Dir, filth
and filthy habits, the depressing vices, and,
above all, by the yenereal infection. What
ever be its origin, 1t is hereditary in the con-
sututlon, descending " from parents 20 children
unto the third and fourth generation " indeed.
1t seems TO be the rod Of Him who says. 81
viii visit the iniquities Of the fathers upon
their children"
Its effects commence by deposition from the
blood Of corrupt or ulcerous matter, which, in
the lungs, liver, and internal organs, is termed
tubercles; in the glands, swellings and on
the surface, eruptions or sores. This foul cor
ruption, which gendcrs in the blood, depresscs
the energies Of life, so that scrofulous constitu-
tons not only suffer from scrofulous COM
plants, but they have far less power 70 with
stand the attacks Of other diseases conse-
quently vast numbers perish by disorders
which, although not scrofulous in their nature,
are still rendered fatal by this faint in the
system. Most Of the consumption which de-
climates the human family has its origin directly
in this scrofuous contamination and many
destructive diseases Of the liver, kidneys, brain,
and, indeed, Of all the organs, arise from or
are aggravated by the same cause.
One quarter Of all our people are scrofulous
their persons are invaded by this lurking in
fiction, and their health is undermined by il.
To cleanse it from the system we must ronoyate
the blood by an Alternative medicine, and in
yigorate 1t by healthy food and exercise.
Such medicine we supply in

CULTIVATION OF BEETs.-The subject
of beet culture is attracting some atten-
ton, as may be perceived by the follow
ing letter from a wealthy farmer near
Philadelphia, who writes as follows:
Il have imported seven tons of Ger
man seed with part of the necessary ma
chinery and have contracted for enough
more of the latter in this country to COM
plete the outfit of a sixty-ton house q. e. I,

if necessary, but deeming it judicious to
enlist as much skill and experience as
possible as well as TO try every suitable
variety of soil, have offered my neigh
bOrs 50 per ton for beets whose juice will
yield II per cent. This price is double
the average cost of raising the'beet as stated
in the books and will, think, be foundbe-
yond the actual cost, and the standard is
based upon what | raised last year. My

myself, after looking over the uniform
failures made thus far in this century, |
am none the least confident of the ulti-
mate result. For some years, however,
the profits will, think, be found in the
steady improvement of the soil, rather
than the pocket of the owner"

THE GRADE OF THE VALLEY RAILROAD.
From the Memphis Avalanche.

From the Memphis Avalanche.
Editor Avalanche IL arrived here with the
engineers on Friday night, having run fifty
miles from Batesville. crossing the 1alo-
busha river near this fCarrolll county line.
do not hesitate TO say that such another
railroad route has never been surveyed on
this continent. Nature has fixed the level (;
for, on this entire line, the grade does not
exceed an average of one foot 10 the mile On
| no mile does it reach five feet. It is beau
tifnl level, sweeping along under blum
from fifty to one hundred and fifty feet
above the valley; and the line generally
| lies about two hundred yards from the foot
of the bluff. On the highest points above
| the valley the eve can see the smoke of a
steamer on the Mississippi--fifty miles away.
The grading of this road will not cost $2,OOO
| per mile, for we need only ditch the track
and drain it, by throwing up the dirt on the
middle of it.
| HOW IT Is TO BE BUILT.
As soon as the Legislature meets the
counties on the line will obtain authority TO
tax themselves; and the feeling is all that
way. There need be no difficulty in build
| ing the road from the Mississippi and Tenne-
| ssee railroad to the Carroll county line,
south of the y alobusha. by the fall of 1871
Carroll and Tallahatchie will concentrate
| their funds to effect this. Carroll county,
as a whole, will not vote tax, but town.
l S0AA
| of twenty-five cents an acre. on belt
| through Carroll, twelve by thirty miles Will
yield $4,000 annually, and tax of one cent
pound on the cotton raised in that belt. will
produce $4,000 annually. | have yet found
| no man opposed TO either or TO both. They
| all know that a railroad is costly thing and
| that il will require the aid of all to baild It,

| Too much rain. too much cold at night
| Corn begins to look well. Cotton. not SO
| well some blowing up and replanting

! PROPORTIONS OF CORN AND COTTON.

| about this, and the almost universal answer
! is, half and half. If this be general, food

HOW THE FREEDMEN WILL VOTE.
| Carpet-baggers and scalawags have played
out in this part of the country. The negroes
made more money last year, by working
with their old masters. They got all the
ter than all, they got their money! contrary
to Radical predictions. They are working
with the same old friends this year-hlrlng
teams, getting meat, corn, ETC., buying corn,
living on old masters land, in old master :

FROM the Tuscaloosa tAla..1 Monitor.
1t seems that. on the night of Tuesday,
10Th ult-, four young men; ON their way
home from North Point, rode towards a
cabin, in which lived family of negroes
of very bad character, and had hardly
halted before they were fired into by sew
eral guns loaded with buckshot. Young
FindIey received nine buckshot wounds
in his bowels, and his three companions
were also wounded, though not danger
ously. Findley lived only about three
hours, when he expired in great agony,
calling upon his friends, with his last
words, to avenge his death. The bad
news travelled over the country around
with the rapidity of lightning. Several
persons from the neighborhood came into
the town of North Point, and reported
there were between twenty and thirty ne
gro men at the scene of the murder, armed
to the teeth and defying tn community
These amused themselves for some hours,
on Wednesday morning, by discharging
their guns and pistols, in glorifcation of
their success the night before. Such
being the terrible state of affairs, about
twenty citizens of the county procured a
warrant for the arrest of the lawless
crowd of negroes; armed themselves
thoroughly, and, mounted, proceeded to
the scene of disturbance; in order to ar
rest the outlaws. Upon reaching the
spot it wassdiscovered that the negroes
had crossed the river some hours before
in skitfs, and the premises were deserted.
