Prosperous New York Physicians.

IFrOm New York Cor. Troy Timesl
Speaking Of physicians, it is said that one is
wanted to every two Thousand population. 1t liz
probable however, that this city has much more
than its proportion, while the number Of quscks
is OF threatening character. Tie prominence
with which some eminent practitioners have
been brought forward by the death of f. w.
walker, by poison, suggests reference to the
profession generally. DIR. Agnew compared the
deceased to Socrates, especially az he died by
hemlock, and also dictated his symptoms
until the last, which WAS the case with the IA.

An oculist. and has practice estimated ut SIS.

ness In this cese, who gives great attention to
nervous ailments, ID supposed to make $40, 600 q
year. His rank Nc physician and his general
success is OF very enviAble character. There
are about fifty first class practitioners here the
senior being DIR. Parker, who is now more than
seventy. He occupies the place once filled by
DR.. Mott, but has not attained to the wealth
which the latter mastered. Mott indeed made
more money than any New York practitioner on
record He charged enormously, and Invested
his money in an advantageous manner. Thirty
years ago he removed tumOr from the neck OF
one OF my friends ali operation which took five
minutes. The fee was $3.50, which was equal to
800 at the present time
DR.. Parker is not far behind his iustrious
predecessor In this important particular. How
ever, men Of wealth can easily pay large fees
~ small ones. To illustrate DIR. Parkers price,
may refer TO the case OF . rich young New
Yorker who while summering broke his leg. 1t
was set by country physician, but he tsle-
grxphed to DR.. Parker to examine the case. The
latter could not leave his practice, but dispatched
talented young surgeon, who remained with
the patient few days and then returned. The
young surgeon sent in bill (no doubt at Par
ker's suggsstion) for u 900, and had the latter
done the same service he would have charged
twice ~ much. Regular visits are rated at 80,
and operations range from $500 up to fanciful
figures. The medical and surgical profession

NEWSPAPER OBITUARIES, >,

noticeable feature OF recent journalism is
the increasing attention given to neurology.
Nowhere has the press shown itself more active
in personal matters than in this The spirit Of
the modern newspaper is a personal spirit. 1t
discards the old abstract methods and appeals
directly to the concerns of men. The principle
has doubtless led to some abuses but it is never
theless tho correct one and it offers the true
explanation of the wonderful growth and in
crease OF influence Of tho newspaper Of late years.
Closely connected with this personal spirt
the interest taken in tho death of individuals
who for whatever reason, have been brought
further into public notice than their follows
Readers not yet old can remember the time
when obituary sketches were very rarely found
in even the best and most literally conducted
journals. The search for news did not stretch
that way and it was not felt that
such subjects were proper for public
comment. Only in the csses Of great
rulers or great crimnals-the words being trans
possible very oftcn-was it thought necessary to
indulge in reminiscence, and even then the work
WAS done in the briefest manner. The system
"A 1t now exists was not d reamed Of and emi.
nent men passed from earth with no chronicle
whatever Of the fact. Now, it hardly need b.
said, the obituaries prominent in the dali,
record Of news. 50 widely read is matter o.
this kind that the editor finds he can furnish
nothing that will be OF more interes
to the greatest number Of people
There is as much competition in til,
furnishing of early infor nation Of this kind a
in collating political news or any OF the mat
ters which make newspapers sought after. And
the field is not at all restricted to the great o
Earth. Local notabilites are AZ vigilantl
''sketched' as Kings, Presidents, Scholars O
Poets. 1t is this widening of the ground which
has given the subject its hold, for people vii
often care more to read about their fellow
townsmen, whom they have been in some wis
long familiar with, than OF famous foreigner
whom they know only by name. Howeye
considered the topic is al instructive ono, a.
showing both the growth of the press and tn
growing interest Of man in man.
