Meeting of the Faculty and Students of the Medical College of Georgia. A meeting was convened on Monday, Dec. 2fith, of the Fiuuillv and sludeuls <d lit** Medical Col lege of Georgia, at Use lecture room of the col lege, when, on motion of I’rof. L. A. In uas, Prof. I. I*. Garvin was called to the chair, and W. S. (’v.vnon, requested to act us Secretary. i’lio Chainuati, Professor Garvin, briefly stated the object of the meeting to be for the purpose of receiving and cordially welcoming to this college a number of the medical students from Philadel phia, who, in company with about three hundred others, had left the North, and were determined to pursue their studies at medical colleges in the South. Dr. 1). A Mat news, one of the gentlemen from Philadelphia, then arose, and addressed the Kao ulty and students, in substance as follows : iteutb uii’n of the Faculty of iJte MLdhtul College of ije uy a : Allow uie the pleasure of introdu cing to you this company of southern medical students—they are a band of brothers—they are your brothers they are my brothers. Having done me the honor of introducing them here, l now ask to present them to you. It is true, I did not have the pleasure of marshaling them into ranks iu the city of Philadelphia. I rose from a ibed of sickness to come, and found them already ranks, earnestly desirous of coming, and wait ing for some one,'who, knowing you, gentlemen, personally, could feel authorised to invite them to the time-honored ami hospitable halls ot the. Med u-al College of Georgia. We have acted under a sense of duty to the South; no other motive prompted in. There have appeared in the north ern newsp ipers many reports concerning this movement ; most of these are erroneous. Much has also been said about ihe arre -t of medical students and their treatuieut in Philadelphia, Our motives for leaving were clearly expressed in the resolutions passed at our meeting last week; vc refer you, geutletneti,and the southern public, tlo them, ay the true exponent, of our feelings and •or motives. . _ - w 'flu! ~>if' l ;l Infers have said much about life action ot th\ Mayor and police men toward southern studenU>m* m relation to various other unpleasant happened; but we lififig fiO coinpiaiuf--we ** o,ie we left we’uiake none now—and we ihat those who have remained have no less cirwse of complaint m these respects, Utah we who Uirned. We tiave been treated tally as well as” 1 . 'IY Philadelphia sees litio arraign herself, she has full liberty. Pet tier bring forward her news paper editors, her stump oiators, and her thousands ofsoi tutors J.et her make her own court—both bulge and jury ; and self-arraigned let her pass sen cnee She has already done it; and her sclf proDounced verdict is, “guilty, most guilty!” Why, *heu need we make am accusation? Let me tell tou, gentlemen, our motives ; they were these: VVe believe it to he our duty to our homes, to do all we could tor the institution* of the South and tor her prosperity, generally; and es ‘ ciftl’lv ai4 physicians, to build up aud encourage med'ical institutions. To do this, a northern school was not the place for us a moment longer, a moment longer we would not remain. I hope you will allow me here to refer to a few remarks made last Tuesday, at the Assembly build ings in Philadelphia, as they clearly set lorth the •views 1 now wish to present. 1 then said: Ido not rise for the purpose of exciting the least entbusi joun iu this nesting. 1 wish to speak calmly on the subject before ns. We are now entering upon _ enterprise of the most momentous importance. A tottering nation will gaze ou our action this day. 1 S av » tottering uatiou. because it is a people drunk with excitement who are to witness our movement on this occasion. Home have prophesied that, m the contempla tion of such a decided snd significant demoostra tiou our countrv will part asunder; but I look for ’ cb calamity, as the result i f this enterprise. On the contrary, l believe it will have a njostsslu -v effect ou our couatrv. And here, gentlemen, ut me repeat it to-dav; I believe, more than ever, t? «t Otir more has much to do with the destiny— the future continuance of ibis Union. 1 know ib it actions spfak louder than words; aud when * assert our rights* bv action*, men will respect them I believe it is beter far to act than to make !/,.eecW pass resolutions, or to build platforms. I iTui tbeii while we make no complaint against thVcitv ot Philadelphia, or the respective Facul ies we reiwpe<*ut in this meeting, we now declare our entire confidence in the abundant capacity of Southern mediCal achools to instruct us m the sci ence of medicine.. W* can see no reason whatever ®hv southern medical students should neglect ithetr borne institutions, atid.come North. J he in- Slluuons of the South are well prepared to impart "instruction. They are noble-aptnted, and , ... . , t dignified, and only need the patronage of her own sons to make them appear dignified in the eyes of the world. ’The South has the material, the brain, the energy ; and, I repeat it, all she asks is the patronage of her own people. It was asked of us in Philadelphia, “ Why can you not wait until the present session is over, and then act?” We replied, “ Because now is the time to strike while southern men are ready. If we wait until you have given all these men diplomas, they will hardly do much for southern institutions when they return home; for it is well known that physicians are apt to recommend the institutions in which they graduate to theiu office pupils and friends generally. Every man is apt to “ hold up” for his alma mater. We do not wish to be bound to the North by any such lufluence.” It was complained to me that we were acting rashly, and that we were about to afflict the inuo cent, viz.: the poor boarding-house women of Philadelphia, and the medical fraterity. I say, in answer to this complaint, and I hope" I aui not irreverent, “Philadelphia, ‘the poor you have always with you,’ take care of them; but such a proportion of southern medical students you have not always with you, and if \ve can prevent it, vou shall never have them with vott again.” We, 100, hare poor women m our southern cities that deserve our consideration and patronage. I<et each of ns, in our respective regions, take care of our own poor. As to the medical Faculties, we make no complaint against them; no animosity btirns in our bosoms toward tltem; I would not wrongly withhold one dime from thetr {rockets; but we have southern men fully as ableaud deserving, and we think it no more than right that our money should go to them for instruction. 1 would not treat with irreverence one hair of your Faculties’ heads; but there are southern men whose hairs deserve our reverence more. I would not lift one laurel from the brows of these men; but there are brows at the South just as deserving, and we must crown them. Now, gentlemen, lam done. I would have re mained silent had l not thought that, the South demands your action and mine, and that of every man in it to sustain her. I say let every man ex amine the subject for himself, and act accordingly. We have already acted. We first examined our consciences, and consulted our judgments, and act ed in accordance with their dictates. 1 believe that no mau among us has done otherwise. As to the ultimate effect of this move upon our country, we have fully estimated, and, we think, rightly appreciated it. lam glad to say that meu have coincided with us in this opinion whose judg ment is respected by the whole country. L allude to many distinguished gentlemen now tu Congress. Though we did not consult them in this matter, they say there can he no doubt that the effect will be salutary, by causing northern men to respect our rights, aud that u wifi thus more firmly ce ment the Union. God grant that if Anything of national importance should result from our action, above all things, may it be this! As 1 have just said, we examined our conscience on this subject, and ou its dictates acted. We did not consult our parents, our guardians, or our friends. They were too distant trom us. Ou this account, many of us, at first, hesitated, and have since had occa sional emotions of doubt; but wßen stern duty speaks to the hearts of southern men, and appeals to their judgment tor their country’s sake, they will ever act promptly, though northern friends may attempt to soothe and northern enemies threaten. Aye, sustained by the conscious ness of right, even though some southern friends, perchance our very fathers, may be doubtful of our course. On this confidence we are with you to day; we are not all; others yet are coming ; many more would have left with us, but they are detained for reasons most creditable to them as southern men ; it is the middle of the session, their finances are low', they owe small sums to various persons in the city and they await checks; these are worthy motives for their delay; we can.only regret their absence, and hope for their speedy coming. Many told me they would gladly come, but could not pay their way at this tune; they applied to me for money, but 1 was not prepared to assist them ; l had refunded and relinquished the pro ceeds of my private class in order to come—l was determined that no man should have cause to im peach my character after my departure from Phil adelphia. Hut. gentlemen, these are but private personal incidents, which 1 only relate as the sincere evi dences of our strong determination to be among you. Let me now, iu conclusion, again present to yout cordial reception those friends who have ac companied me. Let. me ask for them now that kindness and hospitality which, in time pastl has bound me to you ami to your beautiful city. That warm reception, that open li arted kindness, the reliance in which has cheered us all along our ted ious journey home, and which we now find verified by this full attendance-these kind, approving faces, these manifestations of sympathy, the echoes from these very walls -all crying; “welcome to you, our brothers-—welcome home!” Professor L. D. Ford replied as follows : Mr. Chairman: How unexpected this assem blage of the officers and students of the College. We had supposed that the stillness of this hall would have been unbroken during the festivities of Christmas. '' , llow far different are these circumstances from those under which tve are uncustomed here to as semble. We are here, to-dav, faculty and students, to give our welcome to a body of southern medi cal students, abandoning a medical college at the North, in the midst of its course of lectures, to come home, and in southern colleges to finish that course. These are a part ot that three hundred southern students who left the city of Philadelphia at the same moment. These, leaving many of their fellows iu the city of Richmond, who are soon to follow them—these have come on directly to us. The circumstances of their coming are well worthy of note; they left before receiving those spontane ous, patriotic, brotherly resolutions of sympathy and of invitation, passed by the students of this college, assuring them of a welcome reception from its faculty ; and yet, they have come, nothing doubting as to their reception at our hands. Ah ! sir, they judged ns Ly the warm, unerring instincts of the true southern heart—they thus judged, that their reception could be none other than warm, free, and generous. In thus judging they have honored both themselves and us—aud you well know, sir, they judged us rightly, And now, gentlemen, in behalf of my associates of the Faculty, a noble set of men with whom any man would feel it an honor to be associated, l bid you a hearty welcome to your southern home, and to the Medical College of Georgia, Talk not to us coldly of terms; yet this much is necessary; We will exchange the tickets which you have received front your Professors in Philadelphia, for our own : the possession of these will entitle you to all the rights and privileges of our college, as if you had paid your dollars and cents; and by tliis'ar r,increment, we place ourselves in the honorable poswSmn towards our northern brother Professors, of dohpg vicariously, their duties to you, which cireumsKances have prevented them from fulfilling The fraternally prompts the question, Why did yoff.come? fn (banking him whom you have made yoter orgau of communication, for the high conipliments. paid to southern medical colle ges, 1 can lav my tiVMid on my heart and honestly declare mv opinion, that the teaching in the Medi cal College of Georgia its, m all respects, equal in value to that of any othef .college' in the country, and in some respects superior to that of many. Vet, it is not 1o be supposed that this sentiment moved you to this course. Nor did we ever sup pose that you were determined to ibis action by anv dissatisfaction with the treatment or with the political opinions of any of your northern Profes sors. We know better; we know them to be gen tleman ; we dare freely endorse them as men in' capable of holding and expressing objectionable opinions upon those political questions in which vou, in common with the whole southern country, feel so vital an interest. It cannot be concealed, it ought not, that your action has been taken alone for political reasons. We recognise this act as a part of that swelling, surging indignation, which has gone forth from the universal southern country as from the bosom of one man—felt by every southern man upon northern soil, and even there demanding manly utterance—iudignatioa at ihe invasion of the holy rights of our hearth-stones and of our very lives, by those calling themselves our fellow-citizens and brethren. We hesitate not iu our judgment upon votir act. Vou’did nobly well. Itr these dark times, when men's minds are agitated with fearful political possibilities, you did most honorably, like true southern men, in instantly coming back to that portion of your common country, to which, under these circumstances, you owed your hist allegiance—to that country which gave yon bo th, which nurtured you in its bosom, whose glowing sun has burned into you a genial, generous con stitution-you did well, thus to return to your homes, either amid quiet scenes to study, or, if needs be, to fight. Vou did still better by this act, in doing the best for the best interests of your common country— that country, which, in its unbroken integrity, glands forth the light of the world - the brightest AUGUSTA, OAc., SATURDAY MORNING, 3JECEMBER 1 hope of the enthralled nations of the earth—the last hope of humanity for the realization of ration al, permanent, eivil government. This decisive action of the noble three hundred will have done more for the perpetuation of the Union than folios of resolves from the Legislatures of every southern State ; it speaks to those great conservative masses of our northern brethren, de manding them to rise, in their strength, and put down among themselves that handful of wild fan atics, who are ready to desolate our homes with fire and sword. Dr. A. S. Johnson, of Florida, in behalf of the medical class, said : Wl Southern Student* from the Medical Colleges of Philadelphia — Gentlemen: Upon your recent ant val here among us, allow me on this occasion, in' behalf of the present class of the Medical College of Georgia, to congratulate you for that true southern spirit which so grandly characterised your decorous departure from the uncongenial clime of a northern professional brotherhood; and also for that wisdom you have mauifested m so commendable a manner, in giving choice to a southern school to complete your course ot medi cal instruction. In compliance with a long continued, and not unusual custom of southern men, from the purest motives of interest, to wit: for the sake of profes sional acquirements, being induced by the reported superior facilities of northern schools, you inno cently gave patronage to those you considered brothers of one common country. You have been deceived, sorrowfully, sadly deceived. Instead of that common politeness due strangers from any clime, and especially that kindness due brothers of a distant common country, you have received nothing else, from the very moment of your arri val there, perhaps, but the cutting insults of Aboli tion prejudice. They have insulted you in their halls, in their pulpits, and iu their streets, as if you were at all responsible for the peculiarities of" southern insti tutions. You have acted honorably, gentlemanly, brotherly; instead of aggravating" those evil ten dencies which threaten our Union and our peace forever, by the like niggardly and dastardly re torts upon them for their gross insults, you have bidden them a quiet adieu, and sought refuge and a native asylum iu southern schools. Convinced that you have acted most noblv, in deed, aud that the move will redound to the good of the whole South, we throw open our doors, our windows, and onr domes, and welcome you to our halls, our homes, and our hearts. Rest assured, gentlemen, that you occupy, by this very act of your recent movements in the North, a still" higher place than ever, m our affections. Rest you, too. gentlemen, that we do not offer you the mere for mal greeting of practical lips; but cheerfully, unit edly, one and all. we offer you nothing short of a spontaneous outgush of southern sympathies, gen erated in the purest recesses of southern heaits. VVe extend to you the hand of fellowship, and warmly welcome you into onr ranks. The Medical College of Georgia is big enough, ample enough, and southern enough, to afford yon protection, sympathy, and affection, while you sojourn among us. Ouce more: As they have evinced nothing but impure and sinister motives at the North, from the very manner and moment of their cowardly and undermining aggressions, we fear uot to say," gen tlemen, that we stand on the side of peace, religion, and true republicanism ; aud that ob such a plat form we can and will be led victoriously over any such sneaking incendiaries. While we are in favor of union in legislation, we are also in favor of union in social and commercial action, union of hand, head, and heart, for without there is no union in peace or safety. Then, gentlemen, we are with you, hand, head and heart; and with our best wishes for your suc cess in your professional aims, we again bid yon a cordial welcome to the halls of the Medical College of Georgia. After other brief remarks from Dr. Marshall, (on the part of the Philadelphia students,) and from Professors Campbell, Jones, and Ford, the meet ing adjourned. I. P. Garvin, Chairman. W. S.
