    The author of this Address has seen, with much surprise, in some of the periodi- cals, a misapprehension that the Chairman of the Committee is the object of his rebuke. The author, therefore, will point the attention of the reader to the obvious construction that the Chairman was merely employed as a weapon against the New-York State Medical Society, by whom his opinions were sustained. It is also worthy of record, that Dr. Davis was made Chairman of the Com- mittee, appointed to present the subject of medical education by the late abortive Convention held in this city, whilst Dr. Hays made the Report of the Committee's Preamble and Resolutions.
