The Bradford County Medical Society
met at the Odd Fellow's Hall, in the borough of To wan- ;
da, on Wednesday, September 4, lstjl, at 10 o'clock A. I
' M.. the President. Dr. PARSONS, in the Chair.
| The following members were present: Drs. Parsons, of
j Troy ; Horton and Hornet, of Terrytown ; Allen, Smith
j field; Turner. Mason &]Ladl, of Towanda ; Bliss, of I,e-
Roy ; Clagett and Moody, Standing Stone ; ivifl', Athens;
Holmes, of Canton.
| The minutes of the last meeting were read and approv
ed. Dr. MASON presented an invitation from C. L.WARD,
Esq., requesting the Society to diue with him, at 1! o'-
clock. P. M. The invitation wu- unanimously accepted, :
and a Committee consisting of Drs. HORTON, BLISS arid ]
TURNER, appointed to inform Mr. WAUD of its acceptance, j
and dralt resolutions and sentiments for the occasion. j
Dr. HORTON offered the following :
WHKHKAS, As it is tiie request of the volunteers of this !
county, that a surgeon trom this section be appointed Ly :
the government, to attend them ; therefore.
Kesulveit. That we unanimously recommend Dr. E. P. |
ALLEN, of Smithlield.
Appointment carried. ;
The President then announced that the Society was j
ready to receive written reports of cases, and papers. j
Dr. ALI.KN reported a case of concussion of the brain
from a blow on the bead, producing a fissure and slight
depression of the outer table ot the cranium. After a
tew minutes, he was sensible, and then became uncon
scious, comot-ise and vomited. He was tr.-at.-d antiph
logisticaily by vene section, purging, ,t<\ Alter a tew
j days he began to be sensible and conscious, but that doub
ble and weak vision which was remedied by confinement j
j in a dark room for one week. In time he recovered with
out the operation of trepanning.
Dr. c'LAtiUKTT reported a ease of dysentery, that in a
few days assumed the torm ot acute rheumatism, and af
terwards by metastasis attacked the ultru*. producing
-evere labor pains. She recovered by the use of anodynes
and anti-rheumatics.
Dr. lin Lit es , a case of Alcoholic Poi*oning , iri a young
mail, aged 16 years. He became comoto.-e within two ;
hours after taking five drinks of whisky, was left by bis I
companions in his own lather's barn, about 12 o'clock at
night, to get sober, and was found dead in the morning.
A port mortem revealed venous congestion of the brain,
and an alcoholic scent in the ventricles, and over a pint
of liquid in the stomach with a strong alcoholic, smell.
This case strongly bespeaks a moral warning, as well as
a caution not to leave a person in a like condition unaid
ed.
Dr. HOLMES als > reported three eases of Cbowea, two
of which were connected with deranged menstruation,
and the other following acute rheumatism. All soon re
covered under a treatment adapted to indications without
specifics, which is the true principle of treatment in all
diseases leaving specifics out of the question.
I Dr. llouET.a case of a little boy, aged six years, that
j hail nearly severed his fore linger wi.h an axe, excepting |
a small portion of skin on the inside. It was immediate- |
lv ptiieclly adjusted, uud by eoid water applications was
! restored.
Dr. MASON, a case of fracture of the skull, in a lady \
aged about thirty years, with slight depression of the out- i
ei tal-ie. In jumping Irotn a carriage she fell, was not
. un.-.mis':ions. was treated antiphtogistically, and recover- i
ed. As the doctor had been censured lor not trepanning,
lae jjneiety debated the subject, and unanimously sustain
ed him for not operating, as well as to recommend the i
rule not to operate until the symptoms are sufficient to
warrant it.
Dr. ROCKWELL communicated a ease, read by Dr. MA
SON, of an inei.-ed wound ol the abdomen, with a portion
ol the omentum protruding, which tailing to return, the j
doctor cut off. with very little hemorrhage and then dress- \
• I the wound the man was ut his labor in ten days. |
The Lecture, Essays, and Medical discussion were post- !
; potted to the next meeting.
Mr. H. M. MOODY, student of medicine with Dr. ALLEN, '
read a very interesting paper on Sulphate of fjuiuine,
which reflected much credit on the author. This exliib- j
its the tight Hpirit in medical students.
The I'resideut then appointed a Committee, consisting
, of ,Dr.s. HOLMES, BLISS and IIOMET, to nominate officers
for the ensuing year.
The Committee on nominations then reported the fol
lowing. viz :
President— Dr. C. M. TURNER, Towanda.
I ice President— Dr. E. G. TKAUY, Sylvania.
'Jr. Secretary —Dr. DANIEL HOLMES, Canton.
Cor. Seaetary— Dr. V. HOMET, Terrytown.
Treasurer —E. 11. MASON, Towanda.
Cenrors —Drs. G. F. HORTON, A. I'ARSONS, BENJAMIN
PEU'ITT.
tin motion, the report was adopted and the Committee
j discharged.
Dr. MASON moved that the list of officers reported, be
unanimously elected, vita voce, which was carried,
I A Committee, consisting of Drs. ALLEN and LADD, was
appointed to conduct the newly elected officers to their
respective seats.
Dr. TCKNKR, the newly elected President, after lie l tig
introduced to the Society, gave a brief address, making
some very appropriate remarks, and promised his hearty
! co-operation with the members, in all its interests.
Tlie either officers being duly enstalled, promised, also,
to exert all of their energies to co-operate with the Pres
ident and members, for the very best interests and good
of the society.
' Then, by the request of the Society, Dr. PARSONS, the
| retiring President, delivered the Annual Address, which
was very appropriate for the occasion.
| The Society tendered its thanks to Dr. PARSONS for the
i interest he had previously taken in its labors, and tor the
• promptitude and despatch with which he has discharged
• his official duties during the past year, and may the tho'ts
of his many virtues buoy up bis drooping spirits in his
1 declining years, is the very best wish of" the Society.
The President then appointed Dr. HORTON Physician,
and Dr. LADD Surgeon, to the clinic, which was announc
■ ed the next order of business.
Dr. LADD presented a case of cancerous tetter of the
skin, on the nose, extending to each cheek—lady, aged
about fifty years—had existed a number of years. Sev
eral irregulars had warranted a cure, but failed.No cure
was promised and no treatment recommended but palli
ative.
Dr. HOMET. a ease of single hare-lip—child aged three
years ; operation recommended.
Dr. MASON, a very interesting case of supposed her
maphrodite ; child aged two years, which was pronoanc
ed a male ; an operation had been advised by a quack,
j bu". the Society discountenanced it.
Other cases of minor importance were prcsentod, but
i none worthy of note.
Tlie hour of 3 o'clock having now arrived, the society
proceeded to the residence of C. L. WARD, Esq., where
I the members were received with cordial hospitality, and
partook of a sumptuous repast, after which the following
J sentiments were offered by the Secretary, Dr. HOLMES, J
and very appropriately responded to, viz :
" The Medical Profession" — by Dr. HORTON.
" Our Country"—by Dr. BLISS.
"Onr Host and Hostess" — by Dr. TTRNER.
The latter was, on behalf of the parents, replied to by
the son, Mr. HARRY WARD, in a few brief and noble sen
timents, which not only done lionur to the parents, but 1
also the occasion. J I
The Society then adjourned to the Library, which prob. j
ably is not surpassed by any private collection in the I
State, being composed of Literary, Scientific and Medi- ]
cal works, and spent an hour in the examination of its J
extensive and variable eollecfionsof works, among which J
are many specimens of the earliest exhibitions of the art J
of printing. And this vast collection, which lias been j
procured at an enormous expense, from Europe, Egypt, |
and in fact from all parts of the world, is rendered doub- |
ly interesting and instructive, by its numerous living rep- |
resentations of past ages, customs and times, that books !
cannot describe.
After which, the Society re-organized, and unanimous
ly adopted the following resolutions, viz : J J
I. Resolved, That this Society truly and gratefully ap-
I preeiate the courtesy ot Mr. C. L. WARD, and family, and
I that we extend to them our warmest acknowledgements,
i 2. That the war now being waged against our govern- I
1 meut, ha been undertaken without any apology OR ex- I
| euse. and lias for its only object the overthrow of our free I
J institutions ; therefore.
Resolved. That we will give to the National Adrnini.s
' tiation our most hearty co-operation and support in the
I execution of all necessary means lor its entire suppres- >
sion and the total annihilation of fitaon.
The President then appointed Dr. HOLMES, Lecturer, !
I and Drs. MASON and ROCKWELL Essayists, for the next I
I meeting. The subject ol blood-letting, in acute diseases,
i was chosen for discussion , at the same time,
j Dr. HOLMES proposed Dr. JAS. DAVISON, of Canton, for
J membership of the .Society. Deferred till the next meet- '
| >"?• : .
On motion, the Society adjourned, to meet in the bo- j

: THRESHER AND CLEANER
This a new Machine, and has not before been intro

the straw, by a combination of Pitts' Endless Canvass
, Celled Apron, a new Improved Revolving Picker, and
the well Known Vibrating Riddle. It is a simple, durable
and efficient Machine, will thresh rapidly and clean thor-
I oughly, without wasting, all kinds of grain, it will not
choke, run easily and steadily, without jumping, and is
warranted to be superior to the common Rake Cleaner
| now in use. It remains only to be seen and tested, to be
pronounced by every experienced hand at threshing, to
, be an admirably contrived and constructed Thresher and
