Dean & Secretary.
Explanatory of the above, Dr. Case ad
dresses the following letter, which we are per-
milted to publish, to Dr. H. N. Hollifield, of
this city, under date of the 22d instant:
Dear Sir.:—Your letter of November 21st
was duly received, and I proceed to answer it.
The Code of Georgia (1873) reads as fol
lows: “Physicians who were in practice prior
to the 24th of December, 1847, or were in
practice under legal Diploma or license on j
the first day of January, 1863, are exempt j
from the provisions of this chapter.” In oth
er words, they are not required to have a li- !
| cense from the Board of Physicians of Geor-
: gin. Legal Diplomas are those granted by
Medical Colleges within this State. Diplomas
granted by 7 Colleges in other States are not j
recognized as legal by the Code of Georgia;
and all Physicians having a Diploma from a
! Medical CoIlege_out of the State, obtained
i since December 24, 1847, if they have not re-
1 ceivcd a license from the Board of Physicians
! already, are required by the Code to have one.
All Physicians who have received a Diploma
from a Medical College within the State since
I January 1, 1863, are required to be licensed
| by the Board, which license they are entitled
j to, upon the presentation to the Board of
| their Diploma.
The Circular issued by the Board does not
j require any one who has a license, or legal
Diploma, as explained above, to appear be-
j fore the Board. It is only intended to warn
all those who have no license or legal Diplo-
i ma of the danger they 7 are in by not comply-
j ing with the law. They not only cannot, if
j contested, collect the fees for services render
ed, but are liable to a heavy fine.
Very Respectfully,
Geo. D. Case, M. D.,

Gainesville Eagle on crop mortgages: The
time has been when a farmer in this country
would have been as fearful of a mortgage on
any of bis property—land or personalty—as
he would have been of the small-pox or yel
low fever. But the war, with all of its evil
results, put into the minds of our people a
desire to get rich at one leap—and nearly all
the people in Middle Georgia have made the
leap -and are floundering about in debt like a
turtle in a tub of water. They have given
liens on their crops, and mortgages on their
personalty, both of which can be turned in
to executions in ten minutes’ time, and a man
deprived of all his crops of every kind and
all his stock, without any means of defense, |
except to take the illegality of the execution, .
and to any rights that lie may have, the |
Shrill holding the property until the thing is |
disposed of. The farmers of Northeast
Georgia have not gone into this mort
gage and lien business much until
this year, and now we advise them
to pay up and keep out of it.
Wo want the next Legislature to wipe out
from the statue books of this State everything
in the nature of a special lien. We are satis
fied, from what we have seen, that they are
unwise provisions, calculated only to prevent
the law from taking its rightful ^mrse. The
old iasliioned mortgage on person
alty is a common-law instrumen^Bod when
foreclosed in tile old way, can hurt nothing:
but the mortgages we allude to as dangerous,
are those new fledged concerns called “liens,’
for the sake of euphony. Many an unsus
pecting farmer signs them without knowing
that he is signing a “mortgage” and “lien”
to: a double-geered concern, that makes him
criminally liable if be sells a dollar’s worth of
property covered by them, unless the proceeds
of the sale is to their liquidation.
The Farmers and Matrons.
Atlanta, November 25.—The mass meeting
of farmers and patrons to-day was largely at
tended. The session was harmonious and
enthusiastic. The meeting resolved to plant
only one-third of their crop next year in
cotton; favor cash payments, and declare
their right to control tho pi-ice of cotton.

The Crisis and the Newspapers.—Have the
merchants, the business men, the readers of
the press, over thought of the subject matter
of this article? They certainly should do it,
and the reflection would incite to more gen
erous action.—There is no interest more
deeply affected by monetary stringency
than that of the newspaper, for there has
been, and still is in the minds of many too
loose an idea of the moral obligations to pay
printer’s bill. That sort of thing is rapidly-
passing away, but it has been no uncommon
occurrence for men to sit with sanctified faces
:n their Church bews on the Sabbath, and
yet week alter week most wrongfully with- |
hold from the poor newspaper man even the i
pittance due for subscription.
All over the country factories, railroad cor- !
porations and business houses of ail kinds,
are discharging operatives and curtailing t:
peases. How with the newspapers? Of all
business enterprises in such times as these |
the newspaper is the only one not contracting. !
We have discharged no employee,
creased a dollar of wages. Now these are
tacts. Do business men. do the readers of
newspapers appreciate them ? Do they try
to pay their little bills ? Or do they 7 put the
printerglast, and find fault with a vengeance,
it reading matter happens to grow a little
less. Let the newspapers receive more con
sideration—in these times every thoughtful
man will make extra effort to sustain the
press, upon which falls the brunt of the
stringency, yet to which comes no relaxation
or contraction of expenses.—Atlanta Constitu
tion.

teen years old, who has written an historical
drama, entitled “Thomas A. Beckett,” It is
pronounced a remarkable production foi so
young an author.

“immediately if not sooner. He iators

with Spain will tinite the North and South

Mr. Owen Lynch, a highly esteemed citizen
of Atlanta, and who has been the general
book-keeper for the Western A Atlantic Rail
road for 15 years, was run over by a switch
engine on the 21st inst., and died in a short
while.
The Atlanta Zouav-as have tendered their

Mr. Thomas Wallace, an old man, was

The jury, in the trial of Pike, failed to

SjM&2isf*5taml American Troubles, i
s i
The Cuban question is now exciting con- j
1 siderable attention all over the United States, j
j The Press is generally in favor of annexation, j
j and there is now 7 a tremendous war cry ut r j
: terecl by some of those patriots who did their j
fighting, in the rear, during our late civil war. j
! As usual, they are going to hurt somebody, but j
I are exceedingly careful not to get hurt them- j
■ selves. Now we know that war is sometimes
I a good subject to talk about, and make ns feel
' patriotic, but when it comes to the practical
■ and actual leeling, it is not all it is cracked j
up to be. "When families are to be severed,
j and widows and orphans to become more nu-
j merous, and nothing to he gained, we can
not see the necessity, in this instance, of a
j war with Spain. Why should too great na-
j tions be involved in a deadly and expensive
; war, because a few hot-headed adventurers
were caught and shot. Yv'e admit that the
killing may have been cruel, even barbarous,
but why should good, sober, and quiet citi
zens be called from their homes now, to be
equally as barbarously slaughtered, on ac
count of those few who were caught where
they had no lav. i'ul business to be. Why
should an entire community of sober men
become involved in a row, because a few row
dies go to a bawdy house and get shot? It
would be well to put a stop to such action,
but how will we do it ? To take Cuba now,
would only be to pick up an everlasting bene
of contention. Besides we cannot see how
“noor Cuba” would be beneiitte4 by being
transfered from one carpet bag government to
another. That such would be the ease, we
do not doubt. It is proposed to take it, be
cause it would be a good source of revenue,
i NoW, dont every thinking man in this coun-
; try know what that means. It is simpiy to
■ make a new fat carcass for the innumerable
| barjies who have preyed upon the South for
: these last six years. It Is claimed that it will
j soften the animosities which exist between
1 the North and South. 'This we doubt very
' seriously, and if it would, we think it poor
policy to make friends upon t ,e expense and
misery of others. Such friendship cannot
be of much worth. If the North and South
must be friendly and peaceable, why cun we
not be so by peaceable means, and on our
own soil, without breaking the peace with
some other power ?
Whatever there may be of right in this Cu
ban question, we cannot see the necessity for
a war, which, in money and blood, will cost
more than Cuba is worth. If we must be
friendly at home, let us ho so. If we
must have Cuba let us have it by fair pur
chase, and peaceable means.
