APOTHECARY

I N

ENGLAND.

S I R,

I Have often faid, and I am ftill of the fame opinion, that a to- tal abolition of the Faculty of Medicine, with all its appendages, would more effectually prevent the depopulation of this kingdom, than any law that could poflibly be deviled; that it were, upon the whole, much

better for the people to depend for the reftoration of health on their own fagacity, and the advice of old wo- men, than fubjeft themfelves to be poifoned by an ignorant Phyfician, Apothecary, Quack, or Retailer of Noftrums.

I do not deny that many lives might be faved by the fkilful admini- fixation of proper medicines; but a thoufand indifputable fails convince me, that the prefent eftablifhed prac- tice of Phyfic in England is infinitely definitive of the lives of his Majefty's fubjects. I prefer the pra&ice of old women, becaufe they do not fport with edged tools : being unacquaint- ed with the powerful articles of the Materia Medica^ their prefcriptions

are generally innoxious, and therefore they do but little mifchief. An ig- norant PraEiitioner, on the contrary, quite familiar with every article in the Difpenfary, with a total incapacity of diftinguifhing one difeafe from an- other, yet perfectly convinced of his knowledge in the art of healing, without the leaft hefitation, bleeds, blifters, clyfters; and then fends a bafket of draughts to be taken every four hours, compofed of the mod: powerful drugs in his fhop.

Contrary to his prediction, the pa- tient becomes every hour worfe and worfe. The family is alarmed, and a phyfician is called in. What is to be done? Nothing! The time for

adminiftering relief is elapfed. The patient dies. In acute difeafes, ca- pital miftakes at the beginning can never be remedied by the moft fkilful Phyiician.

Such, however, is the general routine of practice in this kingdom. The Apothecary is confulted at the im- portant period of the diforder, and the Phyfician is called in at a time when the fruits of his education, his know- ledge, and abilities can be of no fer- vice.

At what period of our hiftory, and by what ftrange infatuation, this ab- furd, this inverted pra&ice of Phyfic began, is of little confequence. It is fufficient that we know it to be uni- 4 verfally

verfally and irremoveably eftabliflicd. The generality of mankind reafon leafi in matters of moji importance. Confirmed habits never yield to argu- ment. The reafoning of a Locke, the eloquence of a Cicero, will never perfuade any of your patients to call in a Phyfician, until you have hinted your apprehensions of danger. You will certainly continue to be firft fent for; and the family, confiding in your extenfive prafticc, will form their opinions concerning the nature and danger of the patient's diforder on your report. It is evident, there- fore, that you precede the Phyfician both in time and importance, if it be true, that the firft ftageof acute dif- eafes is the mod important period ;

and

DEDICATION.

and 1 dare fay, Sir, you have feen enough of difeafes to convince you of that truth. But I will go a ftep farther ; I aver, that the firft ftage is the only important period of acute difeafes ; and that a careful nurfe will conduft a patient with fafety through mojt (I had almoft faid all) ideopa- thic fevers, known in this climate, if rationally diredled in the beginning.

Hence it follows, that the pre- eminence of a Phyfician confifts folely in the fuperiority of his rank in fo- ciety ; in his having had an academi- cal education, and in being, generally, a man of letters and of fcience. In the line of Phyfic he is of mighty little confequence: fo little, that his at- tendance might commonly be fpared,

if

if he were not confidered as the necef- farv ultimate article of pageantry to expiring grandeur.

If there be no mifreprefentation in what I have written, it appears that the lite of every individual in England is in the hands of fome Apothecary. You fee, Sir, the important, the aweful truft repofed in you by the whole nation, and you cannot avoid perceiving your high confequence in the community. Members of Parlia- ment and Minifters of State are the guardians of the people's property only.

A Phyfician may be a dull, infipid, illiterate, ignorant blockhead, without

any detriment to the nation ; but the penetration, the fagacity, the medi- cal erudition of every Apothecary is infeparably connected with the popu- lation, and confequent profperity of the ftate. It feems, therefore, indif- penfibly requifite, that every gentle- man of your profeflion fhould, in the mod important of all fciences, ex- plore every poflible fource of informa- tion. If the Geeeks, the Romans, the Arabians, have, in their writings, bequeathed to pofterity any medical knowledge worth acquiring, learning thefe languages fhould make a part of your education ; nor are the modern tongues, particularly Italian, French, and German, lefs neceflary, as there

are many excellent books on medical

fubje&s, both ancient and modern, that have never been tranflated.

The fciences of Anatomy, Chemif- try, Botany, Phifiology, Patholagy, Theory and Pradlice of Phyfic, are, I think, generally confidered as necef- fary branches of a regular medical education. Now, though thefe fci- ences may be of no ufe to Phyfi- cians de jure, you, who are Phyfi- cians de faSlo, ought certainly to rc- fide a fufficient time at fome uni- versity where they are taught. But, as in your prefent fituation, that may be inconvenient, in order to prevent, in fome degree, the fatal confequen* of your miftaking one difeafe for an-

In the fecond alphabet, you will find an Engliih translation of the nofological denomination of each clafs, order, and genus (according to Dr. Cullen's fyftem) and every genus in the clafs and order to which it be- longs.
