names; 15 have foreign degrees, and 2 have been dubbed Drs. by 
the Archbishop of Canterbury ; the remaining two who have been 
so honoured are fellows of the College of Surgeons. 
College of Surgeons. — It will be seen that 1127 are 
practising with this diploma alone in the country, and 536 in 
London. Of the Honorary Fellows and Fellows by examination, 
the majority have not a medical diploma. What a monstrous 
absurdity ! the very cause that should have insured their rejection 
induced the Council of the College of Surgeons, we suppose, to 
elect them Fellows! A member of this College when he becomes 
a Physician should pay £10 as a kind of purgation and absolution 
from surgical knowledge ! This College does not require that its 
members should be able to write a common prescription. 
Apothecaries’ Company. — 3698 are members of the London 
College of Surgeons also, and an additional 787 have the Apothe- 
caries’ diploma only; others are members of the College of 
Physicians, fellows of the College of Surgeons, and many have 
degrees from British and Foreign Universities. 
University of Edinburgh 535. — Of these 211 have this 
degree only . 105 in addition have the diploma of the Edinburgh 
College of Surgeons. 31 are Fellows or Licentiates of the London 
College of Physicians. 85 are members of the London Hall and 
College, and 3 are Fellows of the Edinburgh College of Physicians.
