j Circumstances, some of which were not within the
controul of the Board, have been the occasion of seye
raj changes 10 the organization of the Faculty, within
the last year. The unexpected resignation of Dr.
DRAKE, whose talents and reputation were Justly an
preciated seemed to Impose the necessity of reducing
the number Of professorshps, and consequence n
that reduction, Of vacatng the chair of Obstetrics and
the Diseasesef Women and Children Doctor NooR-
HEAD, who was known to be eminent qualified for the
duties of that chair transferred it, from the chan
of Theory and Practice, his own reouest and Doc
tor EBERIE, whose fame is proverbial, was appointed
to the chair vacated by the transfer of Doctor Moon
HEAD. Ills believed, that all the chairs of the Insttu
ton now filed by professors whose talents aud de
votion to- medical science, will bear an advaptaeeon
comparison with those of any other Institution with
which we acquainted An unusual degree of bar
Ihony and good feeling exists in the Faculty. which

objects of the school, and is believed that the
arrangement is such to warrant public confidence ane
