The Pre- sidents's Doctors Bill.

The Presidents doctors bill must be a
very large one. His four attending physi-
clans have for sixty-two days given their
whole time to him--at least so it is assumed.
The practice Of an eminent physician-and
these four gentlemen are all eminent ply
sicians-is perhaps not always worth 800
a day, although there are physicians or
surgeons whose fees average that sum-
There are physicians in London who see
every morning from twenty to thirty pa
TENTS, who call upon them at their own
Offices, and who each Lay one guinea fol
their examination. advice and prescrip-
ton. The income of these physicians is
sive of the fees they receive for calls made
upon patients at their own residences, and
consultations. But, of course, these are
men at the very top OF the tree; aud our
Presidents physicians, although they
should be at the top of the tree also are
probably not accustomed to receive fees
aggregating 500 day or $50 500 year.
AS for the charges to be made by Drs. Ag-
new and Hamilton for the operations per-
formed by the first. aud for the visits and
consultations of both. that is different
matter. We have heard of $4,000 being
paid for single surgical operation in this
country; when the patient is rich and the
operation is one requiring great skill and
knowledge, fees of 81 900 are not uncom-
mon. President Garfield is not rich, nor
were the operations as reported, at least,
OF great difficulty. But probably the emf
nent doctors attending the President do
not look upon him as a private person, but
as the President, and guage their charges
accordingly, expecting the government to
pay, as it probably will do and should do
