spring Is welcome, but not its Diseases
eshould be glad to have its bloom without
It's fogs, its vapors, its sudden changes Of
temperature, and the agues, tits of indiges-
ton, bilious attacks, and other harrassing
disorders which they engender. As this
cannot be, it behooyes all sensible people to
do the best they can to escape such serious
uraW backs on the poetry OF the season. Ask
any physician what the weak and delicate
ought to do when miasma infects the air.
The answer viii be, tone and regulate the
system" But how! That is theimportant
question. A dozen medical men would
PROBABLY recommend as many different
medicines On the other hand, the thous-
ands who have tested the virtues of Hostel
tiers Stomach Bitters as an invigoraut and
Alternative, will recommend but one, the
wholesome preventive and restorative In
which their own experience has taught them
to trust. A course of this rare vegetable
stimulanL commenced now, would save
many pang to the feeble and debilitated.-
Ii would be wise economy too, for it would
probably preclude the necessity for medical
advice. Without disparagement to a pro-
fession which all Intelligent men and wo-
men respect and honor. it is just as well. If
possible, TO keep out of the doctors hands.
and they would have comparatively few
cases of fever and ague, dyspepsia, bilious
ness, nervousness, and general debility to
attend to, if this agreeable and healthfnl
specific were in universal use.

SN@xNe NAeulc91k ASSOCIATION
Mr.. EDITOR 1T is perhaps not known to
al the physicians of Mississippi that the
Estate Medical Association" was re-organ-
lied three years ago, and has been in sue
cessful operation ever since. But it is true,
and the announcement of the President,
DR.. 5. v. d. Hill, of Macon, that the next
meeting will be held in the city of Meridian
on the first Monday in April, should not
only attract the attention of members of
the profession, but should induce them to
make preparations to be present.
In this day of progress, association and
concert of action is necessary in every pro-
fession and avOcation. In union there is
strength. United action brings protection
and success; besides, this annual intercourse
Of physicians from different sections of the
State, not only furnishes the occasion for
much social recreation and enjoyment but
always brings forth such an interchange of
professional thought and experience, as can
but result in the advancement of the science
and art OF medicine, and in the general
good of mankind
1t is understood that several very inter-
esting papers on special subjects will be
read at the meeting. In addition to these.
measures intended to establish uniformity
in securing a proper remuneration for pro-
tessional services will be discussed and per-
haps adopted.
As member of the profession, call
upon the brethren in all parts of the State
to look to their interests. No one else will
Go it for you. Let there be large attend
ance at Meridian. 1t is not necessary that
you should be members of local society.
Go as individuals, and attempt, at least TO
bring the profession in Mississippi up to the
very highest standard of usefulness, not
only to the people, but to the practitioner
also. Be assured that three four DAYS
devoted to this Association will be well
spent.

A New PLAN oE TAX AssEssMENT.-Mr
S. II. Wells, the late Commissioner of Inter-
al Revenue, who is now at the head of the
Revenue Commission for the State of New
York, reports bran new system of assess
ment. Taxation on personal property inn
plies great deal of troublesome and I'M
welcome inquisition into private affairs
concealment is easy, and generally half the
rightful tax is evaded. The commission
proposes to rate the taxes by the class of
dwellings, or stores or warehouses occupied,
and the style of living or doing business
At least one good result might be expected
to follow this system--a sensible abatement
of OStentatiOus eXtraYagance.

PLANT CORN.
To the Planters of the South.

n
GENTS: Let me say to you now whileyou
are pitching your corn crops, to remember,
that if you raise corn enough for Southern
consumption, you not only save and keep
at home the millions of dollars heretofore
paid out for corn, to the west; but you
compel the west to feed the corn heretofore
SHIPPED South to their hogs, and thereby in
crease the amount of pork for market, and
reduce the price of that article to you in
that proportion.
As we can't raise hogs, on account OF
thieves and negroes, this is the next best
thing we can do. The amount of money
saved to the South by this course, and the
pecuniary relief it would afford next year
to the planting community, would be aston
ishing. 1t would amount to many millions
of dollars. beg the planters to consider
this every day while they are planting
corn.
