STATE MEDICINE.
BATTLING Views from the President Of
the American Medical Association.

the American Medical Association.
The following article. which appears
in the February number of the Nash
vile Journal of Medicine and Surgery,
could have emanated from no pen but
that of its senior editor. DR.. w. X.
Bowling, who is also President of the
American Medical Association:
EVERY few years, some one gets up
bill in the Legislature to protect"
competent medical practitioners by
6ning incompetent ones, and forcing
them out of the field. This is to be
accomplished by the exclusion of those
who have no diploma, or by Examin-
ing Boards, to ascertain the qualifiea-
tions of those who would practice
medicine irrespective of diploma
holding. Something of the last men,
toned kind is now pending in the
Legislature Of Tennessee.
1T is passing strange that those who
favor such schemes will not remember
that, in either case, they throw them
selves into the hands of politicians,
who cannot know anything of such
matters. and who care less, if possible,
than nothing. Suppose our present
Legislature appoint such Board from
among us, or several Boards, as con-
templated-at Nashville, Memphis,
and Nnoxville-say about two dozen
doctors in ALTO say who. of as many
thousand, should practice medicine,
would not the members, upon return
ing home, find their constituents, like
so many yellow Jackets, in high sting
ing mood? Do not they know who
does them most good when sick, and
who lucks best?
Qualification Bah Pretty is
that pretty doesl This is the logic of
the masses, and the king of our
country is the aggregate of the masses.
Aud what would the other one thous-
aud nine hundred and seyenty-six doe
tors think?
And of the diploma phase One
man already proposes. in our news
papers, that should the bill assume
that shape, he will guarantee the Dip
lOmaless full supply for u few dol
lars piece And this is an entire
profession blackguarded because Of
the indiscretion Of few Of its men,
bers.
This Journal has set its face, like
flint, for quarter of q century, against
the meddling of non-medical men with
medical affairs, its motto being, To
medical men belong medical matters.
Our State Society has taken similar
ground. Every medical man we have
seen and conversed with upon the SUBJ
iect, is dead set against the pollution
that law alone can bring to medicine.
The language of each is, IF | cannot
stand without props, let me fall and
this is the language of common sense.

months publish, in the county paper.

1.-THE END.1
GOlladay's Lottery a Fraud.

The following article is taken from
the Danville (Ky.) Advocate, of few
days since. In view of the high source
from which it comes, and its relation
to a matter that has elected no little
comment here, we deem it proper to
lay it before our readers. The article
is as follows:
GoLLADY's LAST SwINDLE.-We
are informed that Miss Amelia Cald-
well, of this county, who held the tick
ct that drew the capital prize in Col
laday's last drawing, is not likely 70
realize anything. The ticket called
for superb mansion" in Bowling
Green, valued at $4,000. She went to
get her deed, but it could not be pro-
duced, and she finally came away with
Golladay's notes for 5000, which are
not worth the paper on which they are
written. The whole thing is a COM
plete swiudle, and it Is astonishing to
us that people will continue to throw
away their money in buying tickets in
these lotteries, after the frequent ex-
posures that are made of their rascal
ly management. The press of Ken
tucky would do their readers and the
cause of morality a good service if
they would expose these lottery
swindles, instead Of publishing their
deceptive advertisements.
We are far from entertaining feel
ing of the slightest unkindness toward
Mr.. Golladay personally, but conceive
it to be our duty, as journalist, to say
to the public abroad that his lottery"
is unworthy of patronage. The i'm
preston widely prevails that tits moth
ing more nor less than a fraud.-Bo,gl-
iaQ Green Democrat.

THE Jackson whig and Tribune has

THE jackson Wing and Tribune has
some sensible remarks as the to the
outlook which we copy as follows:
One prominent Characteristic among
all classes Of the community at this
time, is determination to bear and
forbear until another crop can be
made, or at least assured. Our farm
ers are already preparing their
land, and seem to be unbroken in
spirit There is also healthy feeling
among our cuisines men generally, and
we think that the fall Of 1875 will fnd
Jackson and Madison counties in an
unusually prosperous condition, un-
less, the earlier and later rains should
again fail US. This is sumething be-
yond our disposal, but it is seldom that
there are two unfruitful years.in sue
cession in West Tennessee. The les
sons Of the past year will also be of
incalculable benefit to all. They teach
thenecessity at all times for thrift.
economy, and a prudent foresight.
There are few among us who do not
perceive now, where foolish expendi-
lures in the past, have contributed to
the privations of the present. To our
friends in the country the failure of
the great stable has also demonstrated
the perils of people who rely solely,
or almost solely. on single product.
Better diversity the crops, and then
where one fails. others will not. Taken
ell in all we think that we are doing
better than many of our neighbors.
and at the same time see the promise
of a satisfactory future"

Sennachee YaIieY.

A correspondent of the Cincinnati
Times writes, from Marion county,
about Sequachee Valley:
The mineral resources of the three
counties named in this valley are un-
surpassed by any portion ofthe United
States as regards coal and iron. The
fields of both are rich extensive, and
are just now on the point Of develop
ment, which will add vastly to the ag-
ricultural advancement of this whole
section, and also add much to its fnan-
cial prosperity.
An English company have recently
purchased about 10000 acres of our
mineral lands, with,the declared insen-
ton of expending g, 100000 in their
development, and are only awaiting
some special legislation of the State
(whose legisiatareis is now in session.,
which will be easily obtained to their
satisfaction. They already have ar
rangements made and contracts per-
fected for the building Of railroads
through the valley so as 10 reach their
lands at different points.

BATES vIcIssIrUDEs.
Gibson the Man that Defeated Him,
and Orr the Man that would Have
Elected Him. Anyhow.

Elected Him, Anyhow.
Reference to the records of the bal
lotting for United States Senator shows
that. after the withdrawal of Col. w.
H. stephens, Gen. Bate led all the
candidates and on every ballot got
majority of all the Democratic votes.
1t is well known that on the 44th
ballot Gen. Bate got majority of all
the votes cast, bpt that his majority
was neutralized before the result was
announced. The impression has OBJ
tanned that some member voting for
Gen. Bate directed the clerk to change
his vote to Mr.. johnson, and it Is fire.
quently asked who that member was.
The impression, we find, is erroneous.
When Representative Gibson name
was called he did not respond, though
called twice. He was present, how
ever, and had his pencil and paper
carefully noting the ballot. When the
call Of the roll was completed he di-
rected the clerk to record him for Mr..
johnson, perceiving that the ninety
tve votes had been east, and that Gen.
Bate had forty-eight-a majority of
one. By casting his vote for johnson
he made the whole number ninety-six,
thus voiding Bates election.
But Gen. Bate had moreover es-
cape from being Senator than this.
Representative Orr, ofMarshall county
declares that he fully intended to
change his vote to Bate, and was in
the act Of rising to do so, when the
clerk announced the result and cut
him off. If Mr.. Orr had been only a
second quicker, Gen. Bate would no
doubt be the Senator or-elect.-U Union

Fatal Year for American Journals.

During the last four weeks no less
than two hundred daily and weekly
newspapers have suspended publica-
ton in this country alone; and it was
estimated that 5000, 900, have been
lost during the year in the publication
BUSINESS. How many Of the newspa-
pers suspended because of the failure
Of subscribers to promptly pay their
subscriptions, will never be known
with any degree of certainty. That
large majority Of them owe their
failure to this neglect is undoubtedly
true, although negligence on the part
of advertisers to punctually settle their
bills, may have had much to do with
this extraordinary number Of suspen-
sions. Among those marked for dis
continuance at the close of the year is
Appleton's Journal, which during the
FIVE years OF its existence, is said to
have lost over 500, 0,000-AmericaR

Larry was anxiously awaiting them.
One night, about week after their
arrival, Larry entered the parlor where
Dick and Este were sitting. They
were keeping house. Mr.. Cashall hav-
ing had Dicks house reftted and
newly furnished before the wedding.
As Larry entered, he said:

"Ohl begorrah It'll your honor that

their marriage-Dick and Este were
at DIR. Leigh's; the DIR. brought in
the newspapers. and in looking over
them he saw q notice Of Howard Mel

disaster; they all read it without max

Their lives are now bright and hap

head and throat that could not keep them free.
Frequently at night would spring out OF bed, It

operation on them, but at his request postponed it,
The constant Inflammation and liberation in my
throat caused by the poisonous matter dropping
down from my head had so irritated and innamed
my lungs that coughed incessantly-a Deep hard
cough. Meanwhile my system began to show the
effects of this disease, so that lost flesh grew pale
and showed every symptom of an early death by
Consumption. When matters had reached this
stage, or about six months ago, began the use Of
SANFORUS RADICAL CURE FOR CATARRH.
After using the first bottle began to improve
rapidly. The first dose seemed to clear my head
as had not known it to be for years. 1t seemed
gradually to arrest the discharge. 1t stopped my
cough in three days. By using it as gargle soon
reduced the Inflammation and swelling of my ton
sils SO that they soon ceased to trouble me. The
soreness my chest disappeared, the buzzing
noises in my head ceased, my sense of hearing and
of seeing were completely restored and every

practiced by the best physicians, and have consult
