Dispensatory, Iy John Redman Coxe, M. D, I published iu ISO 6, at page 429 says tfiis; touch, and n more, about Lobelia Intlala, ‘ Lobelia Injhta lias been used in leucorrhcea.’ That work was published thirty-two years ago, but mentioned only one disease that Lobelia was calculated to cure. And 1 think I I am fully justified in stating that the phy sician you saw use Lobelia thirty years ago, it’not Tor leucorrhcea, must have” made an empirical use of it, and yet at this day you indirectly justify the empiricism of 1808. Dr. j Cutler says that Lob lia is emetic and ca- j lhartic, and Professor Itafinsque says that it. has no cathartic effect whatever. Schoepf mentions it only as an astringent and useful j in opthaimia. Coxe says, ‘horses and cattle j have been supposed to be killed by eating it accidentally/ Rafinsque says he ‘was in formed that some horses eat it on purpose to ! medicate themselves, and that the Indians used it to clear their stomachs in their grand \ councils.’ Without occupying more time in ; continuing the remarkable consistencies of medical writers who have attempted to give’ tiieir opinions about Lobelia, l may briefly j snv, that the most eminent Professors of] Medical Colleges in the United States, ami j Europe, use Lobelia, and speak of it as a most invaluable acquisition to the Materia j Medica; and I solemnly assert to you, sir,; that those who deny the medical qualities j attributed to it by Thompsonians, either are | ignorant of the untruth of what they assert,! or are gaily of an attempt to grossly mislead others. Ido not pretend to deny that death can be produced by it, nor can you but assu redly admit that large quantities of the most innocent article in nature can likewise destroy life. But this much I can sav, with the ut most and most abiding confidence in itruth, that Lobelia inflata is the most unexception able emetic now in use. You very truly assert that Thompsonians object to ‘ blood leiting.’ But they do not deny its efficacy in alleviating pain, in many instances; hut they know they have morel efficient and less objectionable means, and j arc as successful in their employment as those j who practice venesection. ‘Poo many of the j Botanic fraternity have enjoyed the advice! and writings of medical authorities upon blood letting, and they are not disposed to practice that which so many condemn. Drs. Lob stein, Thatcher and Hall, are sufficiently sa tisfactory, and you might have further proven the opposition of the Thompsonians to blood letting to have been derived from the regular practice, much like vour claiming for them the balance of the Botanic system. 1 hope you are fully prepared to admit that blood letting has many opponents as well as admi- i rers in the ranks of the regular physicians. If you are not, by visiting the Medical Col lege here, you may be satisfied. It is folly fur me now to attempt an argument with you on this subject, further Ilian to state that blood letting is so unnatural and barbarous, and senseless an operation, the greal wonder i3, how any rational man can he so infatuated as to adopt it, and how any patient can he deluded enough to permit it, when he has means of such superior efficacy at command, and so less exceptionable. Your instance of the patient ‘ being almost literally boiled and baked,’ is too ridiculous and absurd to merit notice, and its creation worthy only of the cranium of those who oppose the botanic practice. Vou further truly assert that Thompsoni ans oppose all the preparations of mercury. Well, Sir, the Thomsonians have authority! tor the opposition, to be found in more than a hundred volumes of standard medical works. Can you deny it, Sir ? You say ca lomel and the blue pill arc good in ‘ skilful hands,’ hut that is Mich a qualification that I do not understand it. Do you mean in the hands of a graduate of some Medical Col lege? Why, Bir, the ‘ chief cook and bottle washer’ of the Georgia Medical College is no graduate of any medical institution —1 mean Dr. Milton Antony. But yet he stands in good repute as a physician, and is quite a 1 talented writer, and at this time the editor of the Southern Medical and Surgical Journal. You must have too high a regard for truth j to assert that every medical noviciate m the country is skilful. And you adopt the prin- j cii>le of analogy in finding and opposing the Thomson!.in practice of medicine. But you have failed. The operations of the various tissues of the living annual are m direct op position to almost every law of chemistry and natural philosophy ; and any analogy cited from antagonists must lie inappropriate. “With ail your knowledge of physiology, pa thology and therapeutics, you cannot tell why epsom salts operates as a cathartic, and ipecac as an emetic —then why, Sir, do you attempt to be so learned and experienced? Your objection to the Botanic practice of; medicine, you seemingly assert to be, in con sequence of the general want of talent among its practitioners. Allow me to say to you, sir, that talent and judgment do not go al ways together; on the other hand, plain practical men generally evidence more judg ment than their more learned neighbors. But tar be it from my intention to lessen the dig nity of talent. I know too well that the Bo tanic practice has suffered materially in con sequence of the incompetencv of some prac titioners ; but what system of medicine or what department of science d-*es not suffer under the directions of ignorant persons?— Regular physicians object to families keeping their little supplies of medicines, but the Bo tanies recommend them to do so. Regular physicians decry the use of medicines, with out they recommend them, Botanies sav to the people you can take and give medicine as well as any doctor. For ten dollars a pri vate family can he supplied with Thatcher’s practice of medicine, Gunn’s, Buchan’s, and -■'perhaps some two or three other popular works on medical practice. These works attentively read and studied, will quality any man of 4 common to practice medicine in the ranks of the old school. Thompson’s two volumes are for domestic or family prac tice. They are not regarded as a sufficient source of information to qualify their pur chasers to enter into the general talkative practice of medic! n/. But if the public have a well founded confidence in any practitioner,! however ignorant he may be, they are fully j justified in employing him. A man maybe! a most excellent carpenter, but not know aj single law in the science of theoretical me-j —chatucs; and a man may a be most successful! practitioner of medicine* and yet know noth-! ing about medicine theoretically. When in-! dividuals are sick they want to be cured, and do not desire to listen to the endless techni calities of their diseased organs. Catholics! understand their Latin litany or mass, but i plain Methodists and Baptists desire their i preachers to adopt a language in which all can understand them. The holy bible is written in plain English language, but the Catholic Missal is mostly Latin. Tite books of regular physicians are written in an al most unintelligible language, while Doctor Thompson’s works are in plain English.— Any person that can read the English lan guage can understand Thompson’s works; but it requires years of study to be able to understand the works of medical writers of the old school. The time employed by stu dents in Medical Colleges is consumed almost entirely in the study of technicalities. Their therapeutic education, improved by clinical advantages, is completed in a very short pe riod, and that is,'in truth, die most important information they receive. Let me assure you, sir, that opposition to the Botanic physicians, comes with a very bad grace Iron) an M. D. 1 cannot permit myself to believe that any respectable and in telligent physician could be induced to volun teer in the cause of opposition to the steamers, if the Thompsonians were not circumscribing j their regular practice, as well as tneir annual i income. You seem to think that vou are ca* pable of practising the botanic system, ido not doubt your capacity, hut why not unfurl your flag, “and put over your door, ‘ Regular and Steam doctoring done here.’ You arro ! oate to your practice the credit of tiie steam system, and yet you no doubt often sneer at it, as the creation of an ignorant old man. I would like very much to say something more at length in relation to Lobelia, but I fear that I am intruding 100 much upon the limits of a newspaper. However, I can brief ly say, that Lobelia is considered efficacious and harmless bv such men as Professor Tal ly, of Yale College, Prof. Waterhouse, for merly of Harvard, Prof. Powell, of Burling ton, Prof. McClellen, of Jefferson Medical College, of Philadelphia, Prof. Eberle, late of Cincinnati and Transylvania, Prof. Dugas, of the Georgia Medical College,—but why con tinue.'’ the paper that contains this artide could barely publish the authorities and the favorable notices of Lobelia which could he adduced. Ail that is known against Lobelia is the article which has (bond its wav into the U. S. Dispensatory and been reflected from it. Every candid and intelligent physician knows that the reports circulated arraiust it are for the purpose of injuring the Bota nic practice, and for no other intention. A BOTANIC. Augusta, Georgia.
