Oc i&outiuru Jkmrnnl OF THE MEDICAL PHYSICAL SCIENCES, IV LIEU OF THE u Georgia .Medical Reporter .” BV JOHN G. SLAPPEY, M. D. What we should seek in the sciences is truth, and truth is in the facts.— Broussias. \ fORB than a vear has elapsed since we I*l, published u Prospectus for the “Geor gia Medical Reporter,” and the work has not yet made its appearance. Without attempting any apology to the medical public, and others of the literati who might have felt an Interest in the forthcom ing of such a work, we will only say that the cause of the failure, or delay of its intended publication, was for want of sufficient pat ronage to “au'borize the undertaking,” We have, however, determined to make one more effort, and appeal for the lasttime to the feeling of an intelligent liberal South ern community, who, we still confidently be ieve, will not stand by indifferently, care esslv and idly, and see the design and en lerorize languish and die, in its very con ieption and inception, and that, too, merely or the want ofa small patronage. Political and party newspapers, that are calculated to inflame the pashions, and dis tract the mind, are often gotten up in the day, and are not only handsomely, but are j liberality supported. But now for the first time, when an attempt is made for the pub lication ofa useful and scientific journal, one winch, we trust, may carry healing underits wings, and health in its flight—addressing its di to the real misery of man to his diseases —lies hushed and slumbers in silence amindst his almost total unconcernedness. Remember that Dr. Antony, Augusta; Ors. Baber and Lamar Macon; Drs. German, Boy kin, Fort and White, Mdledgeville; Dr. Phil ips, Powelton, Dr. Gorman, Forsyth, Dr. Reese, Monticello, Dr. Garvin, Waynesboro’, Doctor Haynes, Sparty, Dr. Iloxey, late of Eatonton, now of Columbus, Dr. Jones, of Randolph Dr. Persons, of Warrenton, late of Macon, Dr Robertson, .Augusta, and many others of high standing in the profession, are engaged as contributors in the work.
