Chinese Punishment.

The Chinese penal Code provides that
when an unskillful physician, in admins
tering medicines or using the acupunc-
ture needle, proceeds contrary to the
established forms and thereby causes the
death Of a patient, the magistrate shall
call in other physicians to examine the
medicine or the wound. If it appear
that the injury done was unintentional,
the practitioner shall then be trea ed ac-
cordiug to the statute for accidental
HON cldes, and shall not be allowed any
longer to practice medicine. But if he
"a designrdy departed from the estab-
lished forms. and has practiced deceit
in his attempts to cure the malady in or
der to gain property, then according to
its amount, he shall be treated as thief I;
and If death ensucs from his malpractice,
then for ha ing thus used medic ne with
intent to XII |, he shall be beheaded.
There appears to be nothing in the "ce-
lestiaw code answering to the laws of
barbarian nations concerning civil
damages recoverable by parties made to
suffer by ''unintentiona" malpractice.
