Of this numbei teaching, 6 are practicing law, 7 are prea of full preparation for usefulness. The college now has a faculty of sever roll. Two courses of instruction are pro sophical,-thc latter being mainly as the Sanitary Reform-The State Board of Health. The State Medical Association is by law the State Board of Health. The Executive Committee of this Board p,,rform all the work of the Board. Efforts have been wade to- induce the Legislature to enlarge the powers and the means of this Board so that it could effectually carry out its plans of sanitary reform in the State. At the I last session of the Legislatu-re a bill favorable to this measure passed one house, but was killed in the other. The Board of Health finds itself very i much cramped in its work and efforts t by the meagre appropriation at their command. The report of Dr. B. W. Taylor, Chairman of the Executive 1 Committee of this Board, was read at < the State Association last week. This I report contained several ideas and t suggestions that are of interest to t everybody. It urges the importance of general vaccination, in view of the fact that small pox appears to be steadily increasing. All sub boards should provide, in case of the appear ance of the small pox for complete isolation. During March a vessel arrived in Charleston Harbor hay. ing on board three cases of small t pox. There was no provision for pro- t perly quarantining these cases--only 4,000 being appropriated by the; Legislature for quarantine, which amount is taken up by the ports of ~ Charleston, Beaufort and Georgetown. The Committee wrote to the Governor, who advised them to use the $200 ap- c propriated to the Board of Health. So far no case has occurred outside of quarantine. The Legislature should appropriate funds sufficient to seciere an effective quarantine not only against yellow fever, which affects only the' sea cbast, but against small pox and other epidemics to which the whole State is liable. The non-appropriation I renders the State Board of Health almost powerless. The Association proved its earnest ness and interest in this miatter by ~ adopting unanimously the following ~ resolution : That we pledge our hearty cooperation, both as members of this Association and as individuals, to the i State Board of Health and will do allt in our power to aid in sanitary reform. At the Banquet Wednesday night I the toast to the State Board of Health was responded to by Dr. F. F. Gary, of Cokesbury, one of the most earnest and persistent advocates of sanitary rform among the profession. Aa this I subject is one of special interest to the C public, we append the remarks of Dr. C Gary : Mr. President : The necessity of a system of saluta e ry laws for the preservation of health i was recognized at a very early perioda in man's history by no less a person age than the Great Creator himself. In the books of Moses we find such a system for the welfare of the children of Israel. Such a system was not [ confined exclusively to the Jewish race,'for in coming down to more re cent dates of the history of the world,1 as recorded in the works of Strabo, Tacitus and others, we find mention of sanitary laws. Julius Cosar caused drains to be cut to preserve the health of Rome, and forbade the unnecessary cutting down of the forests. In fact there is scarcely any nation of people who have not adopted some measures looking to this end. The creation, therefore, of the State Board of Health in South Carolina is no invasion of the rights and interests of her people-no experiment that we are perpetrating at her expense ; upon the contrary, it is but falling into line and keeping step in the progressive march of eivil ization. We follow in the wake of others, and it is a reflection upon the scientific culture of our people that its1 creation is so recent. The amount of opposition to the act is a still further relection upon the wisdom of our Legislators. Even after it was organ ized it was looked upon by some as a "Trojan horse." We find the Mcdi-| cal Committee of the House refusing | to make a favorable report upon a bill to record the vital statistics ; the very foundationi stonie uponi which is reared all that wakes the labors of the Board reliable and effective in a great degree. The first year of its existence the Board spent but $300, and from thisi fact many members said if they did have no more use for money thau that, it was a proof of its inefficiency. ~ (COLLEG E.T'" S Newberry College, New.

A simple, pure, harmless remedy a cures every time, and prevents dis A Newberry Minister's Experience and ii Observations North. t I1ev. S. P. Ilughes, Pastor of the Newherry Lutheran Church, has recent s ly returned from a quite extended tour i- North. The object of his tour was to ti solicit aid and procure funds for the completion of Newberry College. The s IIEA..) called on Mr. Hughes a few e (lays ago to obtain from him some ac count of his trio. e His operations were confined chiefly - to Boston. His object being money he, i- of course, sought out moneyed men- t >f men prominent in business circles. le i- says that, with one exception, every ll man he approached and from whom he n solicited aid for the College, n cived him with great kindness; this kindness d was not confined to their places of busi - ness, but was evinced wherever and e whenever he chnnced to come in con tact with them. He was impressed with v e the generous hospitality of the Boston ians; though a perfect stranger to the business men,he received frequent invi- t t tations to their houses to teas and to e dinners. s What are their ideas about the South? Many of the leading business men of c Boston have. during the last few years, o traveled through the South. In some l e respects they have a very correct idea of the state of things among us, and s I sympathize deeply with our present r condition, occasioned by the devastzting f hand of war. Boston has for a long - time maintained close business relations b E! with the Southern States, and her busi- 3 .t ness men therefore take a great deal of ti interest in the prosperity of the South. b Business connections have led to friend- P s ship and sympathy. The people of Boston deplore the condition of affairs : r brought upon us by the ruinous rule of it the demagogue and carpet-bagger, who it e robbed our treasuries and demoralized a - our people; and they rejoice with us at r s our returning prosperity and hopeful fu- I 1 ture. These sentiments, Mr. Hughes f says, were expressed to him by many prominent men in Boston. s i :". Hughes says that the people of i - Nev England are especially concerned i 2 in the Educational interests of the South. V I They have, he says, done a great deal f since the war to ameliorate the evil of ignorance among the great masses of f both races in our country: he thinks i 3 there is not a single Southern State in t. f the Union that has not, within its limits, p I one or more good schools sustained by t, s Northern philanthropists. Their money t is constantly coming to us in this way; and they give it cheerfully. Feeling a deep interest in the future welfare of America, and regarding the education of our people as the only hope of the it s country, they do not stop when they c s have provided for this interest at home, F i but extend a generous and liberal hand I to the need of education in the South. t What about sectional feelings or pre - judice? Mr. Hughes says that these e feelings are more apparent in the South a than in the North. With the exception - of a few politicians and some newspaper 2 editors, who seem to delight in sectional I s strife and nnpleasantness, the bitter ,feelings that existed in the minds of ab -olitionists in ante bellum days are fast 1 leaving the Northern mmnd. The great ~ , mass of the good people North entertain - the kindest feelings toward us; and a they would have it plainly understood - that they are our friends. They aret .willing to bury and forget the past, and a to unite ranks in the march to a more a prosperous future. - If Sidney Smith, whose genial nature t Swas a well-spring of pleasure to his Sfriends, had suffered with an inactive liver he would have used Portaline, or p STabler's Vegetable Liver Powder.
