Accidental violence, sickness, death, are impending over all ; no one knows how soon or how suddenly he may be overtaken by them. The strongest may not wisely glory in his strength and despise means and appliances of support, relief or cure. The agents of disease, decay and death beset the path of all in every period of existence. The foetus in the womb, and the old man in his last struggle to maintain existence, are alike the subjects of our care. Strong and weak, rich and poor, high and low, have a concern in our doings and sayings * At an Adjourned Meeting of the Mass. Medical Society, held Oct. 8, 1860, it was Resolved, " That the Massachusetts Medical Society hereby declares that it does not consider itself JiS having endorsed or censured the opinions in former published Annual Discourses, nor will it hold itself responsible for any opinions or sentiments advanced in any future similar discourses."

" This may be considered the birthday of medical honors in America," wrote the Provost of the Univer sity of Pennsylvania, in recording the first medical commencement held in its college hall on June 21, 1768, and the occasion did mark the beginning of a new era for medicine.1 Two years before, a State Medical Society had been formed in New Jersey,2 but with this and one or two trivial exceptions, no attempt had been made to organize or instruct medical men on this side of the Atlantic. Previous to this period, those who desired a medical diploma were obliged to seek it in the mother country ; but out of the three J thousand physicians then in practice, it has been esti mated that not over four hundred had received the degree of M. D. from a medical college.8 Many of the practitioners of medicine were also clergymen, 1 Extracts from the Life and Correspondence of Rev. William Smith, D. D.

(If not possible, the data can be reported for professionally active physicians or physicians licensed to practise). Notes: - The following criteria are proposed in order to avoid double counting of doctors who have more than one specialty: 1) the predominant (main) area of practice of doctors; or 2) the last specialty for which doctors have received registration. - The number should be at the end of the calendar year. Generalist medical practitioners (ISCO-08 code: 2211) Generalist medical practitioners do not limit their practice to certain disease categories or methods of treatment, and may assume responsibility for the provision of continuing and comprehensive medical care to individuals, families and communities.
