ARE ALCOHOLIC LIQUORS NECES SARY AS MED WIN EH f We devote considerable apace to the publica tion of a report recently made by two pro minent physicians, under the direction of tha Medical Society of Pennsylvania, which Strongly condemns the common practice of prescribing stimulants. It elaborates the theory that although this system of treatment is unnecessary, it is so nearly universal that "it sends its victims daily by thousands pre maturely to the grave, and rills our land with drunkenness and crime." These allegations are of such a startling and important nature that the grounds on which thoy are based de serve the attentive . consideration of the general publio, and of all who are interested in the welfare of their families, as well as tho medical profession. The report says: "Every physician whom we know personally, all of whom wo have heard, use and recom mend the use of alcoholic liquors in some form in their practice. The great majority use them freely im trifling as well as grave cases; on drunkards as well as on the total abstinence people; on tho child of a day and the parent of threescore and ten." As they are prescribed as a preventive as well as a cure, and administered in nearly every dis ease, the authors of the report contend that the appetite which proves so terribly injurious in numberless cases is thus created by the advice and direction of men specially charged with the preservation of health. Authorities for this practice are, of course, not wanting, and it seems that some of tho approved modern medical works exalt the various alcoholic preparations into great specifics which alone can cure tho ills that flesh is heir to. While this theory is systematically applied in numberless cases no temperance agitation can make a deep and lasting Jlmprossion upon tho community. Families who are constantly admonished by those whose opinions command profound re spect that brandy, w ine, whisky, gin, bitters, and malt liquors are highly useful to ward oft" disease from sound constitutions, absolutely necessary to build up enfeebled frames, and the best of medicines to cure discaso, will pay little heed to the declamations of the cham pions of total abstinonce. One quiet word from the family physician will prove infinitely more potential thau the long orations of a Gough or a Futher Matthew. "What is most surprising is that the increased use of liquors as a medicine seems to have kept pace with the progress of tho prohibitory agitation, and that their condemnation in the lecture-room and tho pulpit was instantly followed by the increasod popularity of the stimulant treat ment among physicians. There is little doubt that this popularity has been carried to undue lengths, and that many doctors are now in the habit of prescribing liquors in cases where, without even effecting transient good, thoy do great permanent harm. As there was at one time a rage for the lancet, and at another for calomel, bo there is now an undue prominence given to liquors as reme dial agents; and if all the conclusions of the report are not accepted, it will be fortunate for the country if it exercises, even in a mo derate degree, a restraining influence upon the practitioners who are characterized as "worshippers" of the fancied utility of alco hol as a medicine. The main question, however, after all, is whether liquors are really necessary as medi cines. On this point there is an evident con flict of authority, and while much has been written of their advantages, their scientific antagonists are comparatively few in number. Many warnings . have been made against a too frequent proscription of stimu lants by the profession, and the evil re sults of excessive drinking are conceded on all hands; but few physicians have dared to banish alcoholic preparations from their list of remedies. We are told, how ever, that such a course is not altogether without precedent, and some very respecta ble authorities are cited to sanction it. The renowned Dr. Benjamin Hush, of this city, was one of the first to speak against the use of alcoholic stimulants; Trofessor Chapman declared it to be the duty of every physician to "discontinue the" baneful notion of their remedial efficacy;" and Professor Gross now takes similar ground. Professor Seward, of Washington, alleges that "there is no case in which ardent spirits are indispensable, and for which there is not an adequate substi tute." Several physicians are cited 'who in a long professional career successfully treated every form of disease without using alcoholio remedies in a single inHtance. And the re port adduces the opinions and researches of a number of eminent medical writers to prove that alcohol does not possess the healing and nourishing virtues which have been theoreti cally ascribed to it. ' In view of the manifold evils of intempe rance, this whole subject deserves more attentive consideration than it has hithorto received. The thoorios on which the doctors still disagree should be subjected, as far ai possible, to the most searching experiments. If it is indeed true that alcoholic prepara tions are never necessary as a medicine, that fact is of the highest' importance to mankind, and its establishment by indisputable proofs would do more than anything clue to hasten the reform which thousands of physicians pro'slow to adopt ' ' " ' ' v " Till1! DAILY EVENING TELKGltAl'lt-lMtlLADELTHtA, TUESDAY, THE EMrEROR AND THE 81TUA. TION. Two despatches from Paris that are published this morning, are significant of the prosent situation of affairs in France and of the agi tated condition of socioty brought about by recent political developments. A suspioious character was discovered prowling about Com poigne, where the Emperor is at present re siding, and on being taken in charge by tho police he was found to be armed, and frankly acknowledged that his intention was to assas sinate the Emperor. It is well that he did not succeed even in making the attempt, for he would then have given a fresh protoxt to tho supporters of the Napoleonic despotism to crush out at all hazards the incipient revo lution that is even now beginning to make the empire tremble. A9 it is, this would-be assassin will doubt less be held up as an example of tho in fluence of the teachings of tho advocates of republicanism, and the frustrated attempt of a single crazy fanatic be used as an argument to strengthen the imperial position. That the empire needs strengthening is evident. The Emperor is sick, and it is even said that it is almost impossible that he can live more than a few months longer, and the "Red" are getting boldor as the hand that has so long firmly held tho reins of power begin to grow feebler. Kochefort has not only been per mitted to return to Talis under a spocial safe conduct from the Emperor, but he has boeu received with the utmost enthusiasm, and we are told that ho was accompanied to his hotol by a crowd of fifteen thousand citizens, cry ing 4 'Vive liochefort:" This, added to the attempt on the Emperor's life, and to tho somewhat remarkable statement that no arrests were made by the police on occount of tha demonstration in Ilochefort's honor, indicates a curious state of affairs. Has ltochefort consented to extinguish his lahterne, and to cease from his bitter gibes against the Emperor, Empress, the imperial family, and nil the prominent supporters of imperialism ? or has Napoleon come to tho conclusion that the safest and wisest plan is to let this agi tator alone, and allow him to talk as freely as he pleases ? Such a course at ono time would probably have been in tho highest de gree prudent; but after tho policy that has been for so long a time adopted towards such men as liochefort, and all outspoken members of the press, it may well be doubted whether the time has not passed for concilia tion. The public mind is in a ferment, and tin occasion and pretext are only needed to start a revolution that will send the second empire after tho republics, monarchies, and empires that have preceded it. Involutions in France have not in the past been so suc cessful in reforming abuses that any one will delight in seeing another attempt im the same direction; and we can only hope, but scarcely expect, that both of the contending parties will be inspired by that spirit of moderation and true patriotism that will enable them to reconcile existing difficulties without violence or bloodshed. JoiUNAUSTio Kktkicj'kisks The passion for storting new journals appears to be a tnuniit Willi some people, ami as nlno out of ten that arc started usually full to command sulllclcnt support to war rant their continuance, it generally proves to he a ratlicr expensive mania. The people to whom these enterprises appeal for support are prompted by but one motive In rendering it. If they think they get their money's worth thoy will buy the second copy, but not otherwise. A few days ago a new daily penny paper was started in tliu city, and the ques tion of its continued publication will depend entirely upon the manner In which It meets the demand of the people for news. Thus far the Day has displayed considerable enterprise and piven satisfaction to its readers. If it continues as enterprising and success ful in the future as during the lirst week of Its exist ence, it will doubtless become an established and profitable Institution. But the Dai is not to have tho Held entirely to Itself. The air is full of rumors of projected journalistic ventures, some of which have been talked about in certain circles for so long a time that there must be something serious at the bottom of the rumors. Prominent among the new ventures is the penny dally which it is understood Mr. William M. Swain will commence to publish on the first of the New Year. Mr. Swain Is a sou of one of the founders of the I'ublir Ledjer, and Inherits his father's enterprise, and perhaps his tact. It Is said that this new journal will be Issued from the old I.ciigcr building, at the corner of Third and Chcsnut streets. A new afternoon paper, under tho manage ment of Charles MeClintock, lato of tho Vast, Is talked of. Tho Sunday Time has recently changed hands, and under Its new management will doubtless take a stride towards Increased enterprise and pros-, perlty. Colonel John II. Tuggart, well known In this city as the former Collector of Internal Kevcnue in the First CoiurresBional District, has become the proprietor of the Tim en, it ml Is well tilted by his newspaper experience to make It a readable and at tractive sheet. A Comprehensive Editorial. The Pall Mall tiajet'e makes a sharp analysis of an editorial article which lately appeared in the London Daily Telegraph : "it is obviously the work of only one man; It Is not longer than such treatises usually are ; and yet it contains references to the following personages: Aurelian, Zcnobia, ltichard Cteur do Lion, Pope, Isaac of Cyprus, Voltaire, Pontius Pilato, Leibnitz, Cunigoude, Ismail, Culphuruia, Constantino, John Milton, Abdul, Casar, IUxthauscn, Napoleon I., Na poleon 11., Count Algiirottl, Hook, Peter tho Great, Mr. Clarke, Mahomet, Sir Isaac Newton, with his lit tle dog Diamond, Uamnn, the Czar Nicholas, the Czar Alexander, Iluygliens, Carlyle, Catherine of Russia, Hippocrates, John Evelyn, Paul, Sal. niaslus. M'me Krndener the Prophetess, and the late Mr. Ilutton. Reference also g made to the Plantagenets, the Stuarts, the Tullianuin, the 'J'ullo rics, the (.ienmuian steps, the Suez Canal, Tsar-skoe Celo, Sayes Court, tho Chaussce d'Antin, Koimi, Hyde lark, hmolentik, South Kensiugton, aud various other persons and places. Also, to Mohatne danism, the Master of tho Mint, Palais Royal dinners, great exhibitions, pickled cucumbers, the Peace of Paris, slavery, 1. uterine cigarettes, Lancastrian schools, and many other things of that kind. The object of the artlclo (apparently, wc admit that It is finite a matter of opinion) is to establish tho follow ing assumption that on her own soil. In 1870. Kiit-sia will not derogate from the industrial celebrity elie has already attained, but will continue to show the nations that she uroduces something EOru than tallow, hemp, and hides.' " Another I.lbeJ Hull, We learn from the lust number of FatUr Jbraliod that Andrew Armstrong, Esq., an ex-membor of the I.cgiblature, and lately a candidate for nomination for the Mute Senate, has sued Messrs.. ltaucli & Cochran, tho proprietors of that paper, for libel. The alleged libel, It is understood, consults of tho statements, made by tho defendants some time ago, that as a member of the Legisla ture Mr. Armstrong drew mileage of up wards of 90, being for Sua miles, while his residence is only thirty miles from llarrlsburg, and the proper mileage only nine dollars. The editors of Father 1 brnlunn say they aro ready for trial, ami express a desire to have the matter settled at tho earliest poiudblu day. If Mr. Armstrong has been falsely charged, there certainly can be uo dlttlcully in proving the fact; aud tu that case a jury will, no doubt, do htm ample justice. The public, and espo dully those Interested In local political and legisla tive otralrs, will await the result with consldouUtf Interest. Lancmtcr (I'u.)
