Of this little society, which prop
.:ly belong to the Medical Ar
chives; and it is my intention, in
the course of these meetings, to
draw them forth. Modcsty is no
longer praiscworthy when it sinks
into timidity. Must the decoction
of Wild Arsenic, (Chimaphila Nac-
ulata. be received with contempt,
because it is an up-country planta-
ton remedy? One Of the most
eminent scientific men confessed
! to me that it has been the means
Of prolonging his life. Consider
from what unpretending sources,
some of the grand demonstrations
! in Medicine have arisen. Sims
perfected his wire-suture, unalded
and almost in seclusion. Anesthc-
sia was made known by an obscure
dentist; and Vaccination was dis
covered by q country doctor, in
England.
Let US then banisli objections
from our thoughts. We are able
| to accomplish much. We can,
unitcdly, explain Medicine to be a
humane Institution. We can de-
monstrate, that, separating our
selves from all other occupations
for the exercise Of its bencfcence,
we become entitled to certain
rights, which the People will grant
and respect. We can do much
for the increase of knowledge ;
thereby rendering ourselves wor-
thy of these rights, and establish
ing them in the gratitude of man
kind. Let us move on, showing
by the pleasantness Of our meet
ings, and the soundncss of our de-
alterations, that it will be we'll
for every Physician in Newberry
to unite with US. With no secret
ceremony of admission, no pass
words but Honor and Capability,
let US call upon our brethren to
join us around our council table ;
and resolve, so to respect ourselves
and our patrons, that no wave of
trouble may disturb the tranquil
ty Of our consciences, when we
approach that dread ordeal of in
itiation, which wc all-worthy or
unworthy-must pass; and the
mysteries of which have never
been divulgcd.

The Gala Day at Saluda Cut
Of-The Picnic.

Mr.. EDITOR Indulge US while
VIC endeavor to be brief in giving
you a feeble description Of the
gala day at Saluda Cut Off: In
Western Ncwberry, Immediately
on the G. & G. R. r., and near
the boundary of Edgefcld Co., is
the romantic little spot known as
Saiuda Cut Off. The old river
proper is bounded by semi-cir-
cular bluff, and connecting with
the bluff forms an island-a most
beautiful landscape-and q dcsi-
rahlc spot for the scntimcntalist.
On the bluff is located the Winter
abode, formerly, Of a very worthy
and cptcrprising farmer Of Edge
field, Mr.. R. ". P. The northern
extremity of the bluff is marked
by deep excavation, supposed to
have been the work of the armies
of the revolution, or perhaps an
tecedent to that time. Portions
of the human skeleton have been
found about the place. The South
ern extremity is described by a
couple Of hedges Of ceders forming
an avenue leading from the resi-.
dence to the railroad. The resi-
dence not gothic in style, but af'
ter the architecture of the rural
ist, is nevertheless comfortable
and commodious. The location
taken altogether, is most beauti.
full and picturesque country site.
At this place, on Saturday the 23d
inst, between the hours Of 9 and
10 o'clock, A. NJ, vehicles after
the most artistic style, fashion,
and finish, together with trunks,
chests, baskets Of provisions, band
boxes, sundowns and founces,
the gay and sprightly Of both sex,
bachelors and old maids, doctors,
colonies and captains, and a host
Of others with and without pre-
fxes-all collected, en- masse, to
constitute the Picnic. .
The house being in readiness
and the programme thoroughly
understood, the gala day began:
The sweet melody of the violin
soon dispelled thoughts of the
past: a lively dance sprang
up, and all went gay as the aMar-
riage Belle" And now, Mr.. Edi;
tor, before we proceed further
touching This species of anlusc-

passed away. Then around the
table burdcned with the most
tempting viands and the richest,
delicacics and dainties Of the sea-
son, we all gathered, not howev-
er to keep time with music, but
to try if possible to keep the up
per and lower maxillarys in mo-
tion. This latter was easily done.
The great caterer and anatomist,
DR.. c. G. H., kept us constantly
rcplcnished. The confectionery
department was graced by Mrs

as "Old Rags" Notwithstanding
his bruises and cortusions, in his
eaycrness to get off the train:

Every one-too tedious to call
amcs-had a hand in clearing of
the table. Who washed the dish
es, we are not able TO say, for just
then the violin was again heard,
and.the exercises of the forenoon
were resumed, and continued un.
til the shades of evening drew
nigh and bade US break the weird
charm. Conveyanccs were in
readiness, and after many affcc'
tionatc ad;eus, q general disper-
sion took place toward every
point Of the compass.
And now, Mr.. Editor, one more
word and We have done. We
have witnessed and participated
in many similar instances-but
the Picnic at the Cut off takes
precedence of any thing of the
kind that We have ever observed
nothing occurred to mar theplcas
antness of the occasion, a jovial
good feeling seemed to prevail
and now while it is being rapidly
borne upon the wings Of time
and is numbered amo ong the things
that were-wc do not doubt that
every one present will cherish
with fond remembrance, the
Gala day at the Cut Off.
