COMMUNICATION.
Lexington, 1 bth Nov. 1522.
Gentlemen: I have witnessed,
with very great regret, the unhappy
controversy which has arisen between
two of my late colleagues at Ghent.
In the course of the several publica
tions, of which it has been the occa
sion, and particularly in the appendix
to a pamphlet which has been recent
ly published by the Hon. John Q.
Adams, 1 think there are some errors,
(no doubt unintentional,) both as to
matters of fact and matters of opinion,
in regard tothe transactions at Ghent,
relating to the navigation of the Mis
sissippi, and certain liberties claimed
by the United States in the Fisheries,
and to the part which I bore in those
transactions. These important in
terests are now well secured; and, as
it respects that of the navigation of
the Mississippi, left, as it ought to be,
on the same lirm footing with the
navigation‘of all the other rivers of
the Confederacy, the hope may be
confideptly cherished, that it will
never hereafter he deemed even a fit
subject of negotiation with any for
eign power. An account, therefore,
of what occurred in the negotiations
at Ghent on these two subjects, is not,
perhaps, necessary to the present or
future security of any of the rights of
the nation, and is only interesting as
appertaining to its past history.—
With these impressions, and being
extremely unwilling to present myself,
at iiny time, before the public, I had
almost resolved to remain silent, and
thus expose myself-to the inference of
an acquiescence ia the correctness of
all the statements made by both my
colleagues; but I have, on more re
flection, thought that it may be ex
pected of me, and be considered as a
duty on my part, to contribute all in
my power towards a full and faithful
understanding of the transactions re
ferred to. Under this conviction, 1
will, at some future period, more
propitious than the present to calm,
and dispassionate consideration, and
when there can be no misinterpreta
tion of motives, lay before the public
a narrative of those transactions as i
understood them. I will not, at this
time, be even provoked (it would, at
any time, be inexpressibly painful to
me to find it necessary) to enter the
Held of disputation, with cither of my
late colleagues.
As to that part of the official cor
respondence at Ghent, which had not
been communicated tothe public, bv
the President of the United States,
prior to the last session of Congress,
I certainly knew of no public consi
derations requiring it to be withheld
from general inspection. But I had
lio knowledge of the intention of tin*
honorable Mr. Floyd to can for it, nor
of the call itself, through the I]ous<*
of Representatives, until I saw it an
nounced in the public prints. Nor
had I any knowledge of the subse
quent call which was made for the
letter of the honorable Mr. Russell,
or the intention to make it, until 1 iN -
rived it through the same channel.
I will thank you to publish this
note in tiie National Intelligencer,
and to accept assurances of the high
respect of lour obedient servl. j

Mr. Editor, v
Knowing it probable for the pro
poser of a scheme to view it with a
partial eye, and consequently, be in
sensible of many rational objections
which might be found by those of
more temperate zeal, the subject of a
Medical College for Georgia, was
some time since thrown before the
public, in ofder that investigations
into the propriety of such an estab
lishment-might be made, and all the
arguments against the object, be
drawn from those of opposite opin
ions. The project was afterwards
viewed favorably, and ably, and el
egantly treated on by “ Lector,” who
seemed to have a thorough view of
the nature and design of the contem
i plated institution, with all the cir
’ cumstances bearing on its practica
bility, its necessity, and its economy
and general utility. He anticipated
; and ably answered almost every ob- j
jection which could be advanced j
against the practicability of the sue-i
cessful operations of such an institn- i
tion ; and demonstrated to the ready J
comprehension of every one, its econ- ■
omy and general utility. Its neens- j
sity needed no argument. But a
! modern “ Cel-ms” has arisen before j
us, who has arrayed his artillery of
arguments against the good cause.— j
We feel, howerer, much consolation j
arising out ofthe perusal of his piece, i
from the conviction that he has ex
erted himself to collect the arguments
capable of being brought into action,
and has found himself able to bring
up nothing substantial but what has
been previously considered and an
swered ; and thus the want of argu
ment against, may be considered as
good argument in favour ofthe grand
object in view. , A great physician
is said to have proved, and plainly
demonstrated the non-contagiousness
of yellow fever, by his own ardent
exertions in endeavouring to estab
lish its contagiousness. It is hoped
that when his enquiries into this sub
ject, for the purpose of proving it
impracticable or impolitic, shall have
(which, if pursued with reason and
candour, we feel well assmed they
will do) proven to him the contrary,
that Celsus will be as candid as that
physician, lie seems however, to
have misconceived a part of the de
sign ; and as it is desirable that ev
ery one should think correctly on
tliis subject, we shall, in this place,
attempt a concise elucidation of those
parts of it which seem to have been
. misunderstood.
It is believed, (and it is presumed
that belief cannot be gainsayed by
i any one,) that an increase of medical
talents within this State would tend
■ greatly to subserve the purposes of
i humanity, and prevent, or relieve
1 much of the misery necessarily at
i tendant on disease. This admitted
“ as a thing greatly desiderated, we
r next come to enquire into the most
‘ efficient manner of accomplishing it.
t In doing tliis we must guard ourselves
- against interested motives, (to which
■ the human mind is ah-ays too much
> inclined) and look with a steady eye
i to the public good, instead of innivid
i ual speculation; for I can call that
’ motive by no better name, which
I would willingly keep all about us in
! ignorance, and thus lessen the pro
- fessional competition in the State, in
■ order to gain the greatest possible
, profit from the exercise of our own
1 talents. We would rather see a con-
I slant and generous spirit of emula-
I tion for surierior talents excited, and
f physicians taught, by the quantity
' and power of competition that nolh
■ ing short of aspiring to the greatest
• talents shall ensure profit. It is the
i fundamental principle of the human
1 body, to be inactive without stimula
-1 tion. It is the same with regard to
• the human mind; it is ever inactive
without an appropriate stimulus.—
■ What then are the appropriate inci
. tants to the mental efforts of the phy
sicians of Georgia? Are they sheer
■ humanity alone ? No, And why?
Because they are obliged to look to
their profession sis affording the
means of support—as affording the
means which enable them to enjoy
those worldly blessings to which good
citizens are entitled. It must give
them the means whereby their enjoy
ments which cost money are brought
to them, in addition to the more re
fined pleasures attendant on the ex
ercise of humanity.
The chief benefits ofthe physician
may he enumerated under three
heads, viz : Those which appertain
lo the immediate support of himself
;md family—Those which appertain
to fame of character, (which often
have a great agency as cause of the !
first) —and those purely mental bcnc- |
his-which appertain to, or rather
arise from that benevolence and char
ity, a large field for the exercise of
which is always before the worthy
practitioner, it is evident that the
benefits ot this hist division, however
•desirable they may bo, concurrently
with the others, cannot atone pro
duce sufficient incitement to the mast
ample professional attainments, be
j cause they arc only mental benefits,
■ and cannot answer pecuniary pur
poses. The appropriate stimuli
then, to excite the mind of the medi
'cal man to great intellectual achieve
ments, and his body to great exer
tions, must be the desire of fame, for
sake of its agency in placing and re
taining him in profitable business, or
the desire of gain, or the fear of loss.
These are the stimuli which excite
that volition which is calculated to
metamorohese the novice into the
adept, tinman nature is the same
in the physician that it is in other
men. Give a man an exclusive right
to a certain species of profit and he
will neglect his duty, and extort from
you manilbld the worth of his ser
vices'. Place a physician in a situa
tion for professional business, with
out competition, and he will lose all
his zeal (if he ever had any.) for sci
entific advancements —he will rieg
lect the corporeal duties of his profes
sion, and he will, instead of drawing
from you a reasonable compensation
for his services, reap .from yogi al
i most the advantages of a sinecure.-
i And why ? Because be knows ton
i have no way of avoiding it. It is an
1 unfortunate truth that man, i
41 Imperious umn, wlio rulp* the
; Os lamrunpe. reason, and reflection proud *
S With brow en*cl, wlso scorns this c.iilhy ?O<J,
j Ami styles hhnkejf the image of his God,”
is so depraved in his-nature, that he
| needs compulsion to do that wfich is
right. Since this is the case, let us
j apply the compulsory power. Let
| us say to him, sir, you render us good
i service now, but ouv necessities re
quire that you render us better.—
Your science is far from, perfection,
and is probably susceptible of as much
improvement in the next thirty years,
as it has undergone during lli<; last.
We are not content with your treating
ns according to the state of your sci
ence at the time of your early pupil
age, because we know it has greatly
improved since that time, and your
duty to the public is to exert yourself
for the greatest possible amelioration
of the condition of afflicted human
beings. This we will not only declare
your duty, but we will impel you to
voluntary exertions. We will erect
a medical college here, which shall
place many practitioners on a level
with you. The latent genius ol
Georgia, which lias hitherto slumber
ed from the cradle to the grave, shall,
now be aroused and cultivated.
The middling, and the poorer class
es of our population (rtmopgst whom,
minds the most susceptible of great
intellectual attainments are often
found) who have not the means ol
acquiring an education at the expense
of a distant tour, but who from then
necessities, and habits of industry, and
ardent pursuit will, with an opportu
nity, aspire to the sublimest heights ol
science, shall be placed in prou ! com
petition with you. Let us do this,
and we shall apply the stimulus cal
culated to produce the warned action.
Do this, and yon at once produce the
desire of gain in an active degree, 01
the fear of loss in an active degree,
and the auxiliary one of a desire ol
fame. View our species in all ages,
and make a thorough investigation in
.to the nature of their motives in al!
their actions, and you will find, that
that lofty, that high minded uncor
ruptness, that celestial purity in the
moral faculty of man, which alone
could lead him to the diseharge'of du
ties, or the performance of actions
from motives of rectitude solely , ab
stracted from every most distant pos
sibility of self interest of tiny kind
whatever, is as rare on earth, as a
i white skin on the burning desert Sa
hara, or as mental perfection itself,
/cs, yon will also find in past ages,
as well as the present, (and since
similar causes produce similar effects
under similar circumstances, we may
rationally conclude it will be the case in
those to come,) that self interest has
been, is, and will be, the primary
moral cause of action with all men ;
perhaps I might-say, not only in re
lation to intercourse with the people
anti things of this world, but even
their aspirations after heaven itself.
Hence It is plain, that in order to
make a man do his duty, yob must
make it his interest.
No one has ever so stupid as
to suppose that a great Medical
School, whose perquisites from the
number of pupils could reward half
a dozen professors for their labours
as such, could he advertised for, and
procured here in a veer ! It is well
known tiiat such an institution must
commence on a very small scale,
and increase its numbers and its in
come by its worthiness. It was in
tended to ask of the legislature, a
suitable building, well furnished with
every thing necessary for instruction,
and an annual salary appropriated to
each professorship, until the pefqni-
I sites become adequate to this purpose.
1 For thiSjOUr state is amply able; and
no matter if there are but five pupilsto
j begin with. Give an opportunity of
completing a medical education at or
near home, and many who would nc
ver think of travelling a great dis
tance for that purpose, will embrace
it. There is not a state south of Ma
ryland, which could so rationally cal
culate on having such an institution
well supported, because it is central
to a vast extent of populous country
iu which there is so such school. An
institution of this kind, calculated to
render ample instruction, would, as
• soon as known, be patronized by Flo
■ rida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisi
■ ana, and perhaps some of the interior
■ slates,,besides what Georgia herself
• would afford, which although not
. more than ) ~ or 15 annually at |. re
> sent, would more than donblp that
> number in half a dozen years alter
; such an institution procured a good
> name at home—to say nothing about
r the division of the interest lying be
t tween this and life Baltimore and
; Transylvania schools.
i It has been said that tl these insti
tutions have beeti multiplied to an
- idle and almost indefinite number.”
- I would ask where is the Medical Col
I lege west of the longitude of Washing*
- ton City, and south of the latitude ot
■ Philadelphia, expept at Baltimore, in
■ the northern part of Maryland; and at
' Lexington, in the northern part of
i Kentucky ? There is not one; but there
- is an immense tract of country, the
- chief of which is thickly populated,
i which is in extent, from Cape Sable,
i the southern extremity of Florida to
Lexington, (Ken.) near 1000 miles,
and from Baltimore to the mouth of
the River Sabine, a still greater dis
tance, to which Georgia is central.,—
‘ I would ask farther, if the number of
5 institutions of this kind in the United
• States, which are respectable, or the
1 distances of which from others au-
I thorize a reasonable expectatipn of
■ their ever being so, exceeds four or
• five ? s
t It has been said, that to be emi
-1 nently useful, it must present to its
• followers a prospect equivalent to
• that held out by any institution in our
J tounh v.” To this I answer that it
■ is notorious, that practitioners edu
cated northwardly, and wiio have
r even had experience there, are perfect
" novices with the principal diseases of
1 our climate, until they are drilled into
1 a knowledge of them by many years’
1 experience; and for this reason, those
‘ who intend exercising their profes
> sinnal talents in the South, should be
j educated here.—And farther I will
• answer, that an Institution of this
I kind can never mature itself into the
1 greatest possible perfection, Only by
■ being years in operation, which is
\ one of the strongest arguments in fa
vor of its early foundation : and far
• tiier, that this objection, if indeed it
7 lie one, would, without a beginning
• being made, be still in existence one
! hundred or one thousand years hence,
‘ Experience has repeatedly proved,
1% as has been before intimated by Loc
i' for, that our climate is not inemnpati-
I Me with demonstrative surgical, ami
• g.-u,-nil anatomy ; and lam able t<
• add that'even the Ruyschian art can
• be successfully practised' Imre, not
; - ‘only with, but to a considerable ex
• tent, without the use of pyroligneom
!• acid.
A general Hospital has been ipok
f en of, as affording important benefit;
’• to the pupil. It js admitted that t
d regular service in those institutions i:
! , calculated to yield a rich harvest ti
i- him whose mind has been previously
II well stored with professional lore; bu
it I must remark, that the benefits they
'- yield to the great majority of pupil.-
e in a medical college, are very incon
e siderablo, because in their attendance
i- at the hospital, they have little or nt
s opportunity of making minute exam
•- inations of particular cases; the pre
■- feribing physician passes hastily from
d patient to > patient, feels their pulses
a makes the necessary enquiries, in t
- tone of voice suited to the ear of the
•- sick, makes the necessary prescrip
> tions; and thus no opportunity o
e seeing the patient or hearing the pre
s scription made, is afforded them. A.<
Y to surgical operations on the living
11 subject, the opportunity is equally
s bad ; as it is impossible for more than
V very few to be near enough to be pro
-5 filed by seeing the minutiae of the
operation. The principal benefits in
B those cases are afforded in the anato
-11 mical room.
I- In obstetrics, experience has prov
ed that the poor, and the blacks ol
t our towns, 1 afford a very satisfactory
field for the acquisition of that prac
s tical knowledge which is so necessary

U’e published, a few days since, the
| Resolution offered for the consideration
of the Legislature, ou tlie case of Col.
. Hammond. The Report is of too great
a length to be inserted in onr paper, and
’ indeed it is not necessary for public iu
• formation that it should be, as a large
* number of copies have been ordered to
1 be struck off and distributed “at the ex
-1 pnwe of the state.” The reader will be
1 able to form some idea of lhe x manner ia
whieh the •pretty business was carried
" through the House of Representatives
2 by a perusal of the following statement
’ copied from the Georgia Pat Tot:
a “ The language and the intention
, of this report, call lor the serious cofi
f sideration of every member of the
- community.—There is a spirit which
_ pervades every paragraph of it, which
f cannot he mistaken. It is one of
I those papers, which under the mask
p of an official document, is intended to
. subserve the interests of a party; and
f .send abroad into the world the most
r palpable misstatements, and the most
absurd deductions, under color of a
- legislative proceeding. It is an elec
s tioneejing paper, got up for pM’ty
I purposes to be circulated at the ex
r i peuse of the state. And under this
t view of the subject, the conduct of
. the majority cannot be too severely
e condemned. It is not enough that
t the dignity of the state must be hum
,f bled by transforming the legislative
a | hall into an electioneering cabal, but
’j the treasury must also he dramed in
el paying an extra price for printing an
i- extravagant number of electioneering
e pamphlets.
II “ The report in itself, is as extraor
s dinary, and .unprecedented as was the
e j tumult and confusion which prevailed
y : iii the house, at the time of its agitu
s I tion; for we cannot call it a discussion
jor consideration. The majority of
•.I the house permitted no discussion.—
1 1 And we assert’ it confidently, the
rr ; honde were not in a temper of mind
e ! to deliberate upon any subject. The
>. speaker was addressed by a dozen
P voices at once; “order” “order”
was vociferated from every part of the
\. house—all were talkers and none
,( would listen. Many attempted to
o; address the chair, but such was the
n confusion that they could not pro-
H ceed; every one rose in his place,
some motioned to adjourn, others
is cried “ order” and some vociferated
“ the previous question” —-and those
whose lungs were exhausted, clapped
ts their hands and shuffled their feet,
a “In this slate of tumuli and'eon-
j s fusion, the speaker proceeded to put
„ the previous question , and declared
v it to be carried; while it is a notorious
it fact that i large portion ofthemem
y hers were unable to learn the parti
es cular motion, so many having been
made, upon which they were called
;c to decide, and many of those who did
0 know, understood not the nature and
I- effect of the previous question.
«. “ Upon this vote, taken in this tu
mtiltuous manner, and under those
s> singular circumstances, the speaker
a decided that all discussion and all
e amendments, of the report, were out
). of order. ‘
>f “ Even the modesty of the mujo
?. rity was abashed at this sweeping
s decison. And although they nom
g inally declared themselves willing to
y wave the strict rules of the house as
n declared by the speaker, and enter
into a discussion of the merits of the
e report; yet in effect no discussion or
n consideration was allowed ; no soon
erdid a member of the minority at
tempt to address the chair, than his
r_ voice was drowned in the tumultuous
,f cries of “ order” “ order” “ the ques
y tion” “ the question.” This confu
sion was not of a moment’s duration,
v it lasted for hours ; and several of
the members left the house in disgust.
The speaker nevertheless proceeded
: to take the question’, allho’ repealed
motions were made to adjourn, (which
he decided were out of order and re
-1 fused to put) and on calling the yeas
J* and nays a majority were found in
(1 favor of tiie report.
“ Such is the history of a transac
i- tion which is endeavored to be im
posed upon the world, as the delibe
rate act of the Legislature of Georgia.
1 “ A solemn protest to the report
and proceedings of the majority, has
’ been entered by a large and respccta
f hie minority. It places the subject
in a plain and true light; and as it
will shortly be given to the public, it
supercedes the necessity of any dil
l( fuse remarks from us.
u As the closing act of folly and
imbecility, the majority brought for
“ ward and carriet! a resolution, ap-
