LARGEST CIRCULATION IN THE CITY AND COUNTY
SATURDAY JANUARY 13. 1806.
SAVANNAH JOURNAL. OP MEDICINE.
, It is favorable to the progress of medical
science at the South that at so early a pe
riod nfter the close of the war a periodical
' should have been started of the high merit of
1 that whose title we have transcribed at the
head of this article, and conducted by medi
cal gentlemen who combines professional
knowledge, with experience. The editors are
Juriab Harrlss, M. D., Professor of Physio
logy in Savannah-Medical College; J. B.
Read. M. D., Professor Materia Me-
dica in the same institution; and J. G.
Thomas, M. D.
The first article is the abstract of a lecture,
introductory to the regular course of the
Savannah Medical College, by W. M. Char
ters, M. D., Professor of Chemistry. It con
tains some very sound views. The lecturer
has developed.a truth that the most culti
vated men of the present day have united to
illustrate, such as Guizot, Buckle, Fronde,
&c. It is the great tenet of their philosophy,
in the words of Guizot, “that all that we can
understand by civilization is not comprised
in the simple idea of social well-being and
happiness; and if we look a little deeper we
discover that, besides the progress and meli
oration of social life, another development is
comprised in our notions of civilization,
namely: the development of the human mind
and its faculties—the development ot man
himself.”
Article second is the report of a case of
Elephantiasis, by Juriah Harriss, M. D-
Article third, on the Virtues of Aromides
of Ammonium and Potassium, by J. B.
Read, M. D., a highly interesting paper on
the curative qualities of these agents in cases
of whooping ough and irritable uterus.
There are three articles from the respective
editors—that by Dr. Thomas, entitled Sani
tary, contains several useful remarks as re
lates to tlie predisposing causes of epidemics
iu the vitiated state of the atmosphere. The
position of Dr. Thomas is, we think, indis
putable, “that noxious air is even capable of
doing more harm than merely predisposing
our systems to the attack of disease; that it
does more than simply break down the re
sisting bulwarks of vitality, and give impetus
and speed to its march when once set up in
the economy, but when the ‘spark’ is once
lighted it. ‘explodes like a magazine,’ jvsj
the specific cause finds in it-a {JffsVenient
nidtis tor its generation and propagation until
the whole air is filled ivith poison.” Thi
remark is the four$ a t; ou 0 f a sa nitary sys
tem such as Py. Thomas recommends for the
adoption 0 f th e cl |y 0 f Savannah. His sug
gestion, “that the City Council should appoint
a permanent Board of Health, composed of
the Mayor and three or four physicians—
that this Board should keep up a constant re
cord as to the meteorological condition of the
city, and in the case of threatening of an
epidemic, full powers in every thing pertain
ing to the strictest quarantine shou d be left
to them.” These suggestions are worthy
the attention of the Council. A Board of
Health would be a consultative body, with
whom the civil authorities would be iu con
stant communication, in relation both to the
local causes and epidemical diseases, and its
origin from importation. Without discuss
ing the theory of its origin, the measures Dr.
Thomas suggests are of a ytagtical charac
ter. In all ourJg(ggg|itesJHiia union of pro-
bas been
„rity tor
tlJU^j RME liable to
An article in the Republican ot yesterday
remonstrates against the mode of punish
ment, by ball and chain, recently adopted by
the Freedmen s Court in this city. In the
course of bis article the writer, alluding to the
i victims of justice who have been put to the
i useful occupaiion of cleaning the streets, in-
. stead of being supported for a time iu jail at
the expense of the county, says :
| “They meet this punishment for various
I offences, and mostly petty ones. To the
1 charitably disposed, those who desire to ele
vate their fellow beiDgs, does not this appear
too severe ? A man may become involved iu
a quarrel, ending in his arrest and fine; lie
has nNt committed any of the offences which
show the heart demoralized, or the mind ut
terly devoid of social duty; but bflng unable
to pay his fine and go and sin ne more, the
chain gang receives him, &c., &c.”
We are requested to state that in no case
is any offender sentenced to the “chain gang ’
for inability to pay his fine, nor is any one so
punished for petty delinquences. The pun
ishment has been instituted as a penalty for
theft, in the belief that it will have a saluta
ry effect on that class of pilferers who can
not be reached by floes, and who are not
usually restrained by temporary imprison
ment.

A BKNEriT to Miss M. E. Gordon.—The
patrons of the theatre will be glad to learn
that an opportunity is to be afforded them to
prove their appreciation of this truly excel
lent actress and estimable lady.
It is not too much to say that since Miss
Gordon first won the favor of the public in
speaking the opening address at the begin
ning of Messrs. Raymond & Hamilton’s
season, she has done nothiog amiss, whether
appearing iu tragedy or farce. Always cor
rect in her conception of her role, graceful
and skillful in action, faithful to the text of
the play, performing her own part with scru
pulous care, and not unfrequeotly even di
recting the movements of her companions in
the scene, never “o'erstepping the modesty
of nature,'■ and withal ladylike and pleasing
in personnel, she has justly become the spe
cial tavorite of our play-going public; and
we are happy to be able to print the follow-
lug correspondence, confirming as it does,
our own opinion of Miss Gordon’s merits:
Savannah, Ga.,)
January 9th, 1886. j
Miss M. E. Gordon :
The undersigned, appreciating your unre
mining efforts to minister to their amuse
ment, are anxious to evince their apprecia
tion ny their exertions to procure a full at
tendance to a complimentary benefit, on aoy
evening it may please the managers of the
theatre to appoint in your favor. Trusting
that our wish in this matter may be grati
fied, we are,
Very respectfully, yours,

ahipwreck with death did overwhelm,
The broad light of Its livid sheen
R-vealed the Pilot at the helm:
Whilst he, unmoved by its hot breath,
Held a tamUiar tryst with death.
The beacon failed—transient, afar
Upon the rock-bonnd coast unfurled,
Like ccuie lone, flnctnutlug star
Upon the margin of the world;
But otner meteors o'er the wave
Uuide through the shadows of the grave.
These thoughts woke a tear for him
Whose fate we now may never know—
Whose glories all are withered, dim.
Save as the Pilot's deeds bestow
A lustre on the Christian faith
Amid the water’s mystic wreath.

Among the reviews there is an interesting

The abstract will be found useful. On the

COLLECTION OF SOUTHERN DEBTS.
The Chamber of Commerce of New
York has presented a memorial to^ongress
praying that that body will pass a law ex
empting suiters in the National Courts of the
Southern States trorn the operation of State
statutes of limitation, for a period long
enough to give loyal creditors au opportu
nity to enforce their demands. The aggre
gate amount of the claims against the citi
zens of the Southern States for money loaned
and for goods sold and delivered, amounted
at the outbreak of the war to one hundred
and fifty millions of dollars, and that only a
email porlion of the amount has since been
liquidated; while on the other hand a large
propoition of the residue will be barred by
the statutes of limitation. Iu the language
of the memorial, “statutes of limitation to
suits on contracts are reconcilable with jus
tice on the supposition that the parties have
liaj opportunity to enforce their claims
.* l a..augh the usual courts of law and,as during
the late civil war, it has been impossible for
loyal creditors to “£i-anv meastiroTTo ^ »o inviting In the city belle of fashion.

P'
lect their debts in the Southern States by any
Civil proceedings what ever, justice requires
that all the periods ol the rebellion should be
excepted trom the time fixed for the limita
tion of actions in those States.
The appeal to the justice ot Congress in
this case is irresistible. The conclusion at
which they arnvo is in strict conformity
with the Constitution as well as the dictates
of justice; “that the jurisdiction of the courts
of the United States over cases between the
citizens of the different StatMf was conferred
by the Constitution, and arranged by Con
gress to secure justice where "the courts of
the States might for any cause be considered
as possibly partially prejudiced, or iqafccesei-
blc; and that the present time exhibits a
striking illustration of the wisdom of such
a provision, and at the same time shows its
ineffectual character, if by statutes of limi
tation the Siates can render the jurisdiction
practically nugatory.”
