" BREAKING LAWS."
To the Editor of "The Mariettian"
Under the above caption I find,in your
issue of last week, over the signature of
"A. B. G.," which I interpret, Rev. A.
B. Grosh, an article which opens with an
allusion to myself in the following words:
" When Dr. Trail, in his lectures last
summer, declared that it was absurd to
say that man could break a law of God
or of nature, I supposed his hearers
would look upon it as a hypercritical
whim of the speaker."
After reading his long article careful
ly through I am as much puzzled to un
derstand what the learned gentleman is
really driving at, as he is obviously mud
dled with the difficult task of dispara
ging what he admits to be true. Every
one of his long list of dictionary defini
tions and scripture quotations is an illus
tration of my argument, and, were it not
for the second part of the first paragraph
of my critic's exordium, I should not
have suspected there was any difference
between us so far as any philosophical
principle is involved. But A. B. G. con
tinues—
." But I find by a debate which was
held io our Literary Society on the 3rd
instant, that his declaration is believed
by some of our citizens and defended
us a philosophical truth."
if A. B. G's words have any meaning,
he is in issue with me on the philosophi
cal question involved, and not merely
on the use or misuse of language. I cer
tainly cannot understand the word "but"
to imply anything but his objection to
and dissent from the doctrine I advanced.
Now I regard the doctrine that a law
of nature cannot be violated nor broken
as an important practical truth, when re
cognition lies at the very foundation of
a knowledge of the relations of living
and dead matter, and as affording the
only basis for a true medical science and
a successful Healing Art. Those of
your readers who heard me will recollect
that I discussed this subject purely as a
philosophical problem, and the applica
tion which I then made of the theory
which I advocated, as A. B. G. must re
member, was a refutation of the doctrines
entertained by medical men, that uature
had provided remedies for diseases, and
a law of cure." I argued that nature
had provided no remedies for diseases
whatever; that there was no law of cure
in all the universe, and that the only con
dition of recovery was obedience to phisi
logical law.
IVhether my position is a "hypercriti
cal whim," or a philosophical truth, I
will now proceed to show, and the only
witness I will call to the stand is A. B.
G. himself. Ten lines on from his open
ing paragraph he says :
" Of course, no one iirte4 the words
'break.' •transg.ress,' 'violate,' or their
equivolents, when applied to the cont
nrwds God, in the sense of 'abrogate,
'nullify', or 'repeal'.
Precisely so, Mr. A. 13. if., this is a
matter "of course," then why that "but,"
which buts the objection to the philo
sophical truth,,in the third sentence of
your article ? If you are only contending
for the propriety of the ordinary ex
pressions, why suggest a "but," as to
the truth of the philosophy? If yo.o
really mean to dispute the 'philosophical
truth,' why not meet the issue directly
with facts, arguments and logic, iustaad
of compiling a whole column of irrele
vent quotations 7 I never like to have
an opponent, nor even a coadjutor, on
bqp sides of a question; nor In this
awkward and perplexing state of be
tweenity.
I can see no end, aim, purpose, object,
nor animus to his formidable parade of
the -forms of sounding word's," unless it
be to display his ,extensive reading and
philological lore of the author ; and
this, though very *ell done, might have
been still better accomplished, had these
evidences of scholarship been presented
as illustrations of the philosophical
truth which he admits, instead of eviden
ees that my declaration was a "hyper
critical whi m."
Says A.. B. G. after filling a column
with quotations. to prove• what no one
ever thought of disputing :
" The truth is, words are designed
and used to express idens and feelings,
whether of fancy or fact, of immaginatiou
or reality, of poetry or prose. And to
confine us to words to express that which
is strictly, literally and philosophically
true, would banish, all secondary and ac
commodated meaning of words—all met
aphors and poetic figures—all descrip
tions of the seeming, as of the rising and
setting (and other appearances and
movements), of the sun, moon, stars, and
other heavenly bodies."
True as preaching. But who bas 1:01)-
posed to curb fancy, cripple imtarigina
lien, banish metaphor, and turn all po
etry into prose, by disusing all figurative
expressions.? For one I plead not guil
ty. I only ask that 'we do not mistake
thii fiction, for the fa,ct, the seemik'fo'r
the real, the metaphorical expression
and poetic: 'figures, for scientific, state
ments and philosophical formularies.
I do not object to a person, though' he
be a professor of Astronomy, using the
phraie " the sun rises ; " but if in teach
ing the fundamental premises of Astron
omy, or in making a text-book for schodls,
he should assert that, the sun rises in the
East every morning, soon after daylight,
and travels around the earth once in 24
hours," the merest tyro in the science
might accuse him of uttering nonsence.
And let me say to A. B. G. that, how
ever tolerable and desirable the accom
modated meaning. of words may be for
other purposes, it has uo place in science.
To make an application of these " Ity
pereriticisms " to the subjects which I
assume to teach, I do not object to such
phrases as " catching cold " ; " being at
tacked with rheumatism " ; "struck with
apoplexy"; having a "course of the mew.
ales"; a "turn of sick-headache"; a "touch
of the cholera," or a"run of the fever," as
merely figurative expressions to indicate
particular manifestations of morbie ac
tion. But when the doctrine is serious
ly entertained and taught in medical
schools as a philosophical truth, that dis
ease is a thing, an actual entity, a some
thing foreign to and outside of the liv
ing organism, which seats itself in,
makes an impression on, or runs through
the system, thus adopting the figurative
expressions as literal truth, it is time to
correct the error by refering back to first
principles—the laws of nature them
selves.
We are taught in the text-books of
medical schools, that disease is the re
sult of violated law—the penalty for
transgressing the laws of life ; and the
doctor is called in to mend, as it were,
the broken law, by drugging and dosing
away the penalty. Now if people fully
understood the laws of life—that all of
nature's laws—like the attributes of Dei
ty, are eternal and immutable ; that they
can neither be broken nor mended,neith
er damaged nor repaired ; they were
made to be obeyed, and will be .obeyed ;
and that all evil results from the misuse,
or misapplication, ormisrelation of things,
then, instead of sending for an apothe
cary doctor to poison them because they
aro sick, they would employ a professor
of hygiene to lead them intoobedience.
The worst of all the false theories of
disease is found in the vague notion that,
as " sin is the transgression of the law,"
the sinner may be saved by applying a
remedy to the penalty.
Nor would I object to such expressions,
being applied to the effects of medicines,
as " calomel acts on the liver ";• "opium
makes an impression' on the brain' ; "al
cohol augments the vital energies "; "to
bacco (which I hope A. B. G. does not
use), exercises an affinity for the salivary
glands," &c., if these phrases were not
understood literally by the medical pro
fession. But for this reason I object to
them most decidedly, for they imply the
very opposite of the truth. It is a law
of nature that living matter acts upon
dead matter ; but the whole theory and
practice of medicine of all the drug
schools are founded on the false notion
that dead matter acts upon the liv
ing. Nor can 1 see how the error of the
medical profession, and this almost uni
versal belief on the part of the people,
can ever be corrected, and the true sys
tem of. the Healing Art established
among men, until the public mind is
made to recognize the great primary
truth that, disobe.dielce to law is attend
ed with evil as a necessary consequence;
that all laws will be fulfilled ; that no
law can be violated, broken, annulled,
suspended or repealed ; that penalties
and not remedies are provided for diso
bedience to law ; and that he who un
dertakes to violate or disregard any law
of uature, will find himself damaged
just in proportion to his vain attempt.
FORT DRAYTON,
Otter Island, S.. C.,
Mardi 18, 1862
Dear Col :—After an absence of about
a month, I take this pleasant opportuni
ty to let you know of and about our
travels since we left Marietta. On the
27th of February we left "the good old
town of M—" with our new recruits
for the 45th Regiment, for Harrisburg,
where all were mustered into the U. S.
Service. On Surrday morning, March
3d, we got on board the Atlantic steam
er, and we had hardly lost sight of New
York Harbor until most of us became
sea-sick—as for myself, I was dreadfully
sick for 4 days. The sea was very rough
and at times we thought we must go
down. On the Bth of March, however,
we landed safely at Port Royal. The
first persons we met there were Scott
Patterson and Paris Rudisill, and they
got us up an excellent dinner in double
quick time ; they made many inquiries
about Marietta and its folks. On the
10th we left for_ Otter Island, where,our
Colonel was very warmly welcomed by
all—the band escorting him to his quar
ters. The Lieut. Col. having charke,
in Col. Welsh's, absence, had great im
provements made in our absence—siX
new buildings erected and the fort in
tiptop order and the troops in fine
health and spirits ;. all expect to return
to have a shake of the hand with old
friends. _ I never shell forget the hospi
tality extended to our Colonel on the
22d. The Colonel will ever remember
with greatfulness the kindness of Marieat
ta. The Quartermaster (John McClure,
who, by the way, is every inch a man)
desires me, to send his respects to all
inquiring friends in his old. birthplace.
[The corporal here goes on to . give an
account of the death of Captain Rambo,
which we gave in our last—Ed]. Lieut.
Kelsey, who succeeds Rambo, is a good
officer, and very much in favor with his
men. Capt. Haines and Lieut. John M.
Kline are considered two of the bekt
,
officers in the regiment. It is reported
here that the 45th is under marching
orders, and if so, our boys are readypr
the fray, and with our valliant (.lolobel
at our head we will leave a mark that
Lancaster County—the "Old Guard"—
1 1 will have no reason no he ashamed of.
Truly Yours,
LEWIS M AMIN.
To the above an old and valued friend
of ours adds :—Editor.
As Corporal Martin has given you all
the news and gossip of Camp Drayton,
I will not re-hash it, but simply permit
me to say I was glad to greet the new
recruits from Columbia, Marietta and
vicinity; that a copy of The Mariettian
occasionally finds me which revives
thoughts of "auld lang syne ;" that the
return of Col. Welsh at Otter Island
brought out such enthusiasm as is rarely
found, so deeply rooted is every soldier's
heart for him and his safety. The ap
pearance of The Mariettian revives a
talk of and about home, and if some
Home Guard Mariettian could steal
along the camps some evening, unob
served, he would feel proud in hearing
the expressions and seeing some of the
best soldiers in the Regiment are from
his own town; and when led on to battle
by our brave and worthy Tom, you will
have no occasion to blush for their con
duct. Our friend goes on to say some
thing about a chair in 0. S. Samuel
Haines' possession, which we could not
rightly decypher. We hope he will
write again. Jacob S. Roath, of May
town, our commissary sergeant, sends
his remembrances to you and his friends.
Our Regiment is now at four different
points : Hilton Head Island, Graham's
Plantation, Braddock's Point and Sea
brook Landing. Our friend speaks of
Augustus Wagoner, who was wounded
with Capt. Rambo, as not likely to re
cover from his wounds ; he says he once
lived with Dr. N. Watson, of Donegal!
Qr We are pleased to find that Rey.
J. M. Wheeler has been returned to the
pastorate of the M. E. ehurgh of this
borough. .
