Excerpt from Atlanta Medical and Surgical Journal, 1856, Vol. 1 It is difficult to find a period at which quackery in medicine may be said to have had a commencement. Human nature, since the tall, has been corrupt; and man has continually, from that period, been disposed to seek out, many devices by which to avoid the fulfilment of the Divine decree, that, By the sweat of the brow man should live. And in no age of the world have there been wanting 111dividuals, too scrupulous, to take advantage of opportunities for realizing a subsistence without being very particular to enquire as to the legitimacy of the means; in none of the departments of active life has this dis position been more decidedly manifested than in ourown calling. Nvhile from the earliest times, there have been individuals who have pursued the investigation of disease with honest and phil anthmpic purposes, a large number have always been found looking alone to the accumulation of wealth and attainment of position, by practising upon the ignorance and credulity of the world. The fondness for mystwy upon the part of the votaries of medicine, and the willingness upon the' part of the world to be deceived, perhaps, commenced with Esculapius (to whom was ascribed the power of raising the dead, and who was worshipped as the God of Medicine) and has descended in no small degree down to our own times. If, the temples which the ancients were wont to raise to him, and in which votive tablets were hung up, on which were recorded the diseases cured, as they imagined, by his assistance, are no longer erected to our modern Gods, they are able, at least, to record their own deeds, and to raise temples and palaces for themselves from the rich otter. Ings which flow from a perpetuation of the same credulity and ignorance, and doubtless, in this age of the world, can divini tics prefer the wealth and luxury heaped upon them to all the honors which the ancients awarded to aesculapius.

Excerpt from Atlanta Medical and Surgical Journal, 1898, Vol. 15 Now with these important symptoms we have a change in the pulse; we have the pulse Of peritonitis; it may not be increased much in rapidity, but its character is changed in a marked degree. And just here I would say that it is not the rapidity of the pulse upon which we lay stress, but upon the character ofthe pulse itself. We find the pulse hard, bounding, throbbing as it were, and one that it is impossible to compress or to make entirely disappear. We feel it jumping under the fingers as an unruly horse pulling against the bridle. The pulse rate may be very little increased, or it may run up very rapidly.

Excerpt from Atlanta Medical and Surgical Journal, 1858, Vol. 3 My attention has recently been called to an editorial notice in the Nashville Journal of Medicine and Surgery, for August, 1857, of the Lecture delivered by me, on the subject of the Use and Abuse of Tobacco, at the Opening of the present course of Lectures in the Atlanta Medical College, in which, while the writer shrinks from being understood as defend ing the use of Tobacco, or as being the apologist of those who do use it, he disingenuously seeks to cast opprobrium upon the Lecture, and parry its force, by reference to a former dis cussien, in which he had taken the very position here disclaim ed, and in the defence of which he had introduced to his Med ical Class an old African slave, for the purpose of invoking his experience and opinion.

Excerpt from Atlanta Medical and Surgical Journal, Vol. 13: March 1896 We will now consider the etiology of this, which is one of the most widespread of acute diseases. We find that of predisposing causes age ranks first. Prevailing at all ages, there are yet three marked periods: early childhood, then from twenty to forty years, and lastly in old age, of which it is the especial enemy; and according to Loomis, after the age of sixty, nine-tenths of the deaths from acute diseases are due to pneumonia. While catarrhal pneumonia is more common than croupous pneumonia in young children, yet the latter is also found in them, and, according to Loomis, it is five times more frequent in the first two years of existence than in the following eighteen. Males are more frequently affected than females, as being subject to more exposure, for in advanced age, when the conditions of living are more nearly the same, the proportion is about equal. Dwellers in cities, and especially in crowded and unhygienic surroundings, tthcse exposed to hardship and the vicissitudes of weather, are more lliable to the disease. Alcoholism is a most potent predisposing cause. Chronic dis eases, such as diabetes, Bright's and others, previous attacks of pneumonia; in short, all debilitating influences exercise a marked effect as predisposing causes. Pneumonia following blows on the chest, and other traumatism, is known as Contusion, or Trau matic Pneumonia, and the injury producing it is simply a pre disposing cause.

Excerpt from Atlanta Medical and Surgical Journal, 1891 The subject was left, however, to be exhaustingly studied both from a clinical and atomical point of view, by Wilhelm Meyer, of Copenhagen, in 1868. SO thoroughly did he investi gate the 102 cases on whom he Operated, that little of much value has been added to his work. Hypertrophy of the pharyngeal tonsil is essentially a disease of early life, only a very small percentage occurring after the thirtieth year.
