approved by the licensing bodies." He, however, wassupported by the vote of only five members of the Counciland before the next matter was entered upon he jocularlyinformed the Council that all the Irish representatives hadvoted for his proposal.Mr. TEALE proposed the adoption of subsection 3,

namely :-(3) Every candidate shall produce evidence that, after obtaining a

registrable qualification, he has, during three months practicallyobserved and studied the clinical and administrative work pertaining tothe medical superintendence of a hospital for infectious diseases. The’three months devoted to study in this sense may be concurrent withthe administrative work referred to under section (2), but not with thelaboratory work of section (1).

Dr. BRUCE seconded.Dr. McVAlL supported the motion, as it was in his view

a great advance upon the present practice.The PRESIDENT thought administrative" was not needed

at all.Dr. LITTLE, Dr. LOMBE ATTHILL, and Sir CHRISTOPHER

NIXON agreed, while Sir WILLIAM THOMSON contended that,supposing the rule were passed, the words " and administra-tive " would prove unworkable.

Dr. MACALISTER, seconded by Mr. YOUNG, submitted amodification of the existing rule-namely :—

That every candidate shall produce evidence that after obtaining a’registrable qualification he has, during three months, attended thepractice of a hospital for infectious diseases at which opportunities areafforded for the study of methods of administration.On a division Mr. Teale’s motion was supported by only

six members, whereas Dr. MacAlister’s proposal received 17votes, and was unanimously passed when it was put to theCouncil as a substantive motion.

Mr. TEALE intimated that he would not trduble the’Council with some remarks he had intended to make withreference to the classification suggested by the committeebut rejected by the Council. Farther he would entirely dropSection IV.

Dr. MACALISTER said that he would bring up the report,on the following day.

STOCKPORT AND DISTRICT MEDICAL SOCIETY.-The following resolution was unanimously passed at a specialmeeting of the above society held on Nov. 22nd :-That this meeting of medical practitioners of Stockport and

neighbourhood indignantly protest against the ignorant and insultingparagraph contained in the Cheshire County News of the 16th inst. inwhich invidious comparison is made between a notorious quack andregistered medical practitioners.The passage in the Cheshire County News ran as follows :-In reference to the decision arrived at by a Yorkshire coroner’s jury

affecting Dr. Rawlings of Reddish it will be of interest to learn thatDr. Rawlings has since been the recipient of numerous letters from oldpatients and others expressing their sympathy with him, their eon-fidence in his ability, and admiration for his character. At a meetingalso the other night in a room crowded with men Dr. Rawlings fulfilledan engagement to lecture, and a most remarkable manifestation ofsympathy with the medical gentleman broke out, the cheering beingloud and long-continued. We need only add that an unregisteredmedical practitioner, however able he may be, is subject to disagreeableincidents similar to that in which Dr. Rawlings is involved, while menwith not half his ability, if registered, would escape them altogether.
