JET EERSON MEDlCAL COLLEGE.
fl>HE jefferson .Medicaf College was instituted in
Philadelphia, in 1925, and, during its first ses-
sion, was endowed by an act or the Legislature of
fennsylvania, with power TO confer degrees in Me
dcine, and with all The privileges and prerogatives
OF similar institutions, in country and in Eu-
rnpe
Since its foundation 600 students have attend
ed the respective of lectures; and of this
number las from various sections of the United
States, the Canadas, West Indies, and Europe have
been admitted to the degree of Doctor of Medicine
The sixth session of the college will commence on
the first Monday of November next, and, il is be.
eved under the most favorable auspices; every OBJ
stace to it's future advancement ha wing been removed
and such adopted by the board of trustees
as will give new impulse TO the exertions of the
FACULTY. Among these measures 1t Is thought proper
to specify particularly the appointment of Professor
Drake OF Cincinnati, to the chair Of the Practice of
Medicine His reputation lecturer is acknow.
lodged, while his practical acquaintance with the dis
sases most prevalent in the southern and western
ectons OF our country in which a majority of the
graduates in medicine may be expected to locate
themselves, must greatly enhance the value of his
instruction.
The additions which have been made to the ana
tomca' cabinet, with the facilities afforded for dis
section and demonstration, are such will bear
parson with those of the oldest medical schools on
this side o. the Atlantic.
In all other respects it is confidently believed, it is
no; surpassed by any of its sister institutions, with
all of which, far is Known it is placed on a foot
ing of perfect eqnality-a course Ct lectures i'll one,
beng held equivalent TO course on the same BRAN
ches, III every other.
The Aims House and Hospital Of the city afford

cal instruction, and hours appropriated 10 this
purpose An nffmary for diseases of the eve is also
