PROSPECTUS
OF IRE
Georgia medical reporter.
BY JOHN G. SI.AP.PJf, M. D.
jrhat we should seek in 'the Sciences is truth, and truth
is in the farts.” —Broussais.
WT is now morelban six years since I first con
■g ceived the idea of publishing periodically the
above work for the following reasons, which are ob-
Tiausand striking: There being no pubFrculicn of the ,
Juind in the State.; and, forouglil I know, throughout
the whole Southern States; we are compelled, con
sequently, to look to the North, and through her to
Europe,for .every thing new, rare, and interesting in
the science. It would seem pcculiary appropriate
lust at the present time, when the most awltd visita
tion is hovering over the land-the Astatic Cholera.
It has already swept across a great extent Noith
America ; from Montreal and Quebec to New Or
leans ; vidting -Imost every city and town of any im
portance in the Northern Middle and \V estern States.
There is left no reasonable ground to just ify lhe con
clusion, that our highly favoured section of country
can much longer escape the impending evil. Besides,
have we no disease or modification ot disease, inci
dent and peculiar to our climate, and remedies native
.of our country 7 , .
Medicine had its origin, in necessity : in motives ot
benevolence and plff'lanthropy —-in a disposition to
mitigate lhe evils—to ameliorate the condition ot suf
fering human nature to baifle/’e// disease the greatest
curse indicted on fallen man—-and bestow on him
Health, the chiefest blessing, saving the atoning blood
of our Saviour. Our much lamented Rush said, “while 1
the world, from the progress of intellectual, moral. |
and political truth, is becoming a more safe and agree- <
able abode for man, the votaries of Medicine should I
not be idle.” The American Linnaeus, the Jate ven
erable Benj. S. Barton said, “be who discovers one I
valuable new Medicine, is a more important benefac
tor of his species than Alexander, Cesar, Bonaparte,
or an hundred other conquerors. Even his glory,
in the estimation ol a truly civilized age, a ill begieat
er and more lasting, than that of these admired ravag
ers of the world.” •,
What is the condition of our department of science
in Georgia 7 Indeed and in truth, our Medical lore is
lurking far behind (comparatively speaking) the active
improvements of the day —tJie spirit ol the times ad- I
monishing us to look forward, with an unlimited gaze, |
upon the advance of man and the “march ot mind, i
There is medical talent in Georgia, -and yet she is al- |
most without professional character; because she has j
-not enterprise, industry and energy. There is mani-|
ifestlv but little written on medicine in our Slate; med- j
ical reading too, is not pursued with avidity, less stud
ied. properly understood and regarded. '
Let us turn our attention to the constant and indc
fefigable efforts ot many American-teachers; but es
■peciallv tothe late works of our own countryman,
..professor Jackson of Philadelphia. He inculcates !
principles upon the unerring guide ot genuine and in- ! ‘
ductive philosophy ,be declaims against authority ; ’
mid boldly asserts the non-existence ot a specific gas- 1
~tric juice, and advocates other certainties, as impor
tant to physiology and truth.
The recent splendid discoveries of Abercrombie of
Scotland, of Abernethy, Lawrence, Chitterbuck, '
Tode, &c. &c. of England, are their everlastingraon- '
uments. Germany is likewise moving on But above '
nit, stand the sons of France, and ot true medical phi
losophy, Audral Broussais, Baron Larry, Pinel Laen
nec and others; these moderns of the moderns, have
'Jt'Jjoilv uprooted the old and ancient systems of rou
tine medicine :—they have sought, however, not so
much to overthrow' former systems founded in error,
tis (hey have to discover truth, and the real etiology of
disease. They have not only succeeded in removing
the rubbish, but in establishing medicine on a surer
G.'id firmer foundation, and giving to it the line of
perfection.
It would be uncandid, and it is not to be denied or
•concealed, that the doctrines of the French school,
and particularly those of the deservedly renowned
• and immortal reformer Broussais, will be held and
maintained in this Gazette. We regard them (and
they are-nci versally admitted) as containinglhe purest '
and most substantial of the great fundamental truths
* of physiological medicine. They are founded in data:
the dissecting knife has been made to reveal and de
velope from pathological anatomy, principles of a 1
fixed character.
They will be as enduring as time, and as solid as
adamant. Principles involved in cause and effect,
that were heretofore considered mysteries inexplica- ’
bl", are now known and established facts. In the <
mind of Bronssais,’positive philosophy has sought and 1
found confessedly a regenerating and redeeming *
spirit. \ !
•We come not without diffidence, presenting our
'Tmmbie offering, feeble and retired ns it is to contrib- I'
ute our mite at the altar of professional science :if we 1
can but give n zest to the young mind, an inclination I
and direction to-medicnl inquiry, it is all we hope and '
expect ; it is the “ne /dus ultra” of our wishes I
Some of the best talent of the State is engaged to I
assist and to contribute in lhe work, and we confi- ’
dtuiily expect to be able to concentrate and combine
sncli a fund of foreign and domestic intelligence in j
our journal, as to make it acceptable, if not agreeable

MAP
OF TliE
COUNTY OF CHEROKEE.
I have now in the hands of the Engraver, which
will be completed by the first of November next, a
general and accurate MAP of the Cherokee country,
drawn from the returns of the District Surveyors.—
Owing tothe great number of Lots into which the
country has been divided, particularly the Gold Re
gion, and the large dimensions of the sheet it will re
quire, to have all those numbers distinctly and accu
rately laid down, 1 have thought it advisable to form
I the Map into separate and distinct sections ; which 1
designate as Gold Map and Laud Map.
All the Land districts in the territory are laid dowu
on one sheet, and constitute a distinct and separate
Map by themselves.
The districts reserved and surveyed as Gold dis
! tricts, are divided into three sheets or Maps. Districts
Nos. 1,2, 3.4, 5, 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15, of the first
section, form the first Map. |
Districts Nos. 1,2, 3, 14. 15, 1(5, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21 '
and 22, of the second section, form the second Map
; Districts Nos. 1,2, 3,4, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21 and 22 of
(he third section, and districts Nos. J,2, 3. 16 and 17
lof the fourth section, form the third Map. On these
| .Maps will be found each district in the teiritorv, with
- every square lot of Land and Fraction distinctly laid
I down and numbered—all Mountains, Rivers. Creeks,
