PROSPECTUS ’ OF IBS GEORGIA MEDICAL REPORTER. BY JOHN G. SI.AITY, M. U. j * If hat we should seek in the Sciences is truth, ami truth, j «> in the fids.”—Broussais. IT is now more than six years since I first con ceived the idea ot publishing periodically the above work, tor the following reasons, which are ob- 1 ’ ions and striking: There being no publication of the i kuid in the State; and, (brought 1 know, throughout j the whole Southern States; we are compelled, con- ’ sequenlly, to look to the .North, and through her to j Europe, lor every thing new, rare, and interesting in j ’.he science. It would seem peculiary appropriate j just at the present time, when ihe most awful visita- i lion is hovering over the land—the Asiatic Cholera. ! It lias already swept across a great extent < f North ; America; from Montreal and Quebec to New Or leans ; visiting almost every city and town of any im portance in the Northern Middle and Western States. ! There is left no reasonable ground to justify the con- . elusion, that our highly favoured section of country, ; can much longer escape the impending evil Besides, i have we no disease or modification of disease, ini.i- ; dent and peculiar to our climate, and remedies native , Oi bur country ? Medicine had its origin, in necessity: in motives of ■ benevolence and philanthropy—in a disposition to mitigate the evils—to ameliorate the condition or suf fering human nature to bathe fell disease — the greatest curse, inflicted on fallen matt —and bestow on him ■Health, the chicfest blessing, saving the atoning blood of our Saviour. Gur much lamented Rush said, “while the world, from Ihe progress of intellectual, moral, ; and political truth, is becoming a more safe and agree [ able abode lor man. the votaries of .Medicine should j not be idle.” The Amcricar. Linnaeus, the late ven-' enable Benj. S. Bartoll said, “he who discovers one j Valuable new Medicine, is a more important benefac- ) tor ot his species than Alexander, Cesar, Bonaparte, j or an hundred other conquerors. Even his glory. ( in the estimation at a truly civilized age, will be great er and more lading, than that of these admired ravag ers of (he woild.” \V hat is the condition of our department of science in Georgia? Indeed and in truth, our Medical lore is I lurking far behind (comparatively speaking) the active | Improvements of the day—the spirit ot the times ad- < monishing us to look forward, with an unrivited gaze, j npon the advance of man and the “march of mind.” | There is medical talent in Georgia, and yet she is al- < ../nost without professional character; because she has ! hot enterprise, industry and energy. There is mani- I lastly but little written on medicine in our State; med- | lea! reading too, is not pursued with avidity, less stud- I ied, properly understood and regarded. » Let us turn our attention to tire constant and inde- i fatigable efforts of many American teachers ; but es pecially to the late works of our own countryman, professor Jackson of Philadelphia. He inculcates principles upon the unerring guide ot genuine and in ductive philosophy , he declaims against authority; and boldly asserts "the non-existence of a specific gn.t trie juice, i<nd advocates other certainties, as impor tant l» physiology and truth. The recent splendid discoveries of Abercrombie of Scotland, oi Abernethy, Lawrence, Clutterbuck, I I’eale, Ac. Ac. of England, are their everlasting mon uments. Germany is likewise moving on But above ali, stand the sons of France, and of true medical phi losophy, Audrol Broussais, Baron Larry, Pinel Laen ■yiec and others ; these moderns of the moderns, have wholly uprooted the old and ancreiit systems of rou tine medicine :—they have sought, however, not so I much to overthrow former systems founded in error, j •ns they hsve to discover truth, and the real etiology <>; disease. They have not only succeeded in removing | ■.thrubbish, but in establishing medicine on a surer | and firmer foundation, and giving to it the line oi ; match onwardto perfection. It would lie uncandid, and it is not to be denied or ■ •Concealed, (h it the doctrines of tiie French school, j and particularly those of the Reservedly renowned ’ and immortal reformer Broussais, will be held and ( maintained in this Gazette. We regard them (and ; they are universally admitted) as containing the purest I and most Kubstantial ol the /'real fundamental tru'lis I til physiological medicine.
