MEDICINE AND SURGERY.
Discussion of Tumors. Cancers, and CO.
caine Poisoning.

The Richmond Academy Of Medicine ana
Surgery met in regular semi-monthly ses-
sion last night at their rooms on the corner
Of Fourth and Franklin streets. The at
tendance was a very large, ana the meeting
was a very interesting one. Dr. W. W.
Parker presided and DIR. j. W. Henson
acted as secretary.
DIR. Lewis {. BOsher read very able and
interesting paper on the subject OF rectal
ulcers, which enlisted some discussion III
dulged in by Drs. W. ". Parker, j. :. Well
ford, l.. {. Bosher, Landon Is. Edwards ana
DIR. j. L. Moore.
A patient was exhibited AT the meeting
by one OF the members, who had small
tnmor on the chest. At first II was thought
10 be a cancer, hut after "A careful eNamina-
ton the Musicians decided that 1t was "a
tumor. Ii was the opinion OF the PHYSICIANS
that many lives were lost by persons al
iected with small tumOrs, and that persons
with those Affections should make II known
Immediately 10 their physicians.
DIR. Parker reported three or Iour very
peculiar cases of typhod-ieNer occurring
near the Chesapeake and ONO shops. Inc
opinion was expressed that the offensive
condition Of ShOckoe creek at this time
mas have something 10 do with the creation
of this dangerous disease. IL was stated
that the stencil arising from the creek now
now was fearful. This creek receives all OF
the sewerage north Of Broad street.
DIR. Garcih reported case of cocaine
poison. This is dangerous drug, and
should be used only under the direction OF
"A physician. In this case, however, amer
much difficulty, the patient was restored.
The society took important steps 10 Sc

their meetings in connection with the Bar
