THE PRIDE OF VIRGINIA BLOOD.-We have
heard great many anecdotes of the glory
which the Virginian takes in his origin, and
of bis manner of vaunling Of it. Many Of
these stories are as ridiculous as the claim,
but the drolest illustration of il that we have
met with is in a Hoosier story which treats
of the courtship of an old and ugly Virginia
widow, whose wealth rendered her very at

CORWIN VERSUS JENIFER.

During former session OF Congress.
Messrs. Corwin of Ohio, and jenifer of Mary
land, were very intimate. The latter like
all Marylandefs, believes the Eastern shore
is The Paradise of the world, and he was in
the habit as often as opportunities offered, of
'pokin fun at Corwin about the Buckeyes
and The State Of Ohio generally Corwn
bore this persecution patiently for awhile,
usually, however, returning shot for shut /:
until one day while dining at the Presidents,
Jeniler came down upon him so hard, tai
CUrwin resolved TO silence him forever, so
rising from his seat, he remarked thai he
was not in the vein for story telling, but be
would relate an incident that occurred dur
ing the early part of his professional career,
in Court House in the interior of The State
of Ohio.
He said that the Judge had just taken his
seat upon the bench, and cause was about

old gentleman came toIterng into the court
room, upon cane in either hand The old
man had been a soldier Of the revolution, and
had come in TO procure a lawyer to prepare
his papers, that he might receive his semi
annual payment. This service was always,
of course, rendered gratis.
| The papers, continued Mr.. c., were ham
ded over TO him, and afer asking some of
the other necessary question, he enquired
The age of the penSioner.
In lremuIoas, shrli voice, the old man
answered, FORTY five
You do not understand me, old gentle
man, said Mr. G. q wish to know hoe old

'My dear sir, do not wish to know how
old you were when you left the service, OF

MIR. Corwin then looked up TO the Judge

Proctor and Patron, University Of
MEDICAL DEPARTMENT

The plan Of instruction in this department of the
University, presents peculiarties To be found in no
other school Of medicine in the Union. The lee
lures commence the LIST Of October and terminate
the 29th Of June,
Owing to the length of the session, which en-.
braces period Of nine months three professors are
enabled TO perform all the duties which in other med
Ica institutions usually assigned to six; and the
students are seldom required to attend more than
two lectures on the same day. BY this arrange
ment, the students have opportunity Of being
well grounded in Anatomy Physiology, and other
elementary branches of medical science before they
investigate their applications IN connexion with the
study of the practice of Medicine and Surgery.
Immediately before each lecture, the students are
subjected TO full and rigid examination on the pre-
ceding lecture, or on portions Of approved text
books. IL is apparent that the plan, Of which the
outlines have been briefly stated is one which allows
the student to commence well as to complete his
medical studies In the institution, and presents
happy combination Of the advantages Of the system
of instruction, by private pupiage and that of public
lectures.
Any person Of approved moral conduct may offer
as a candidate, and receive the degree Of NJ. D.,
without reference TO the time he has been engaged
in the study Of medicine, or Of joining the school,
provided he undergoes, in a satisfactory manner,
the various examinations prescribed by the enact
ments. The professors are:
Robert E. Rogers, M D., Professor of Chems.
try, Pharmacy, and Materia Medica.
Henry Howard, M. D., Professor of Pathology
and Practice of Medicine, Obstetrics, and Medical
Jurisprudence.
James L. Cabell, M. D., Professor of Anatomy,

ITO the holders Of Virginia Military

- Lhhu w Wdrrahte.-SohgIes haNiug, oy al
act approved 18th July last, extended the time for
locating continental land warrants, in the Virginia
military district Ohio, and for returning surveys
thereon to this office until the first day Of January,
lS4S, notice is hereby given, that the holders Of
such warrants can now locate the same in the said
district.
From report made TO this Office by the surveyor
of the military district in Ohio, il appears that the
quantity ofand yet remaining TO be located is about
$50 900 acres, lying principally in Scoto, Pike, and
Adams counties.
As the time for locating, and the quantity to be
located are limited, and as Congress has made no
provision to satisfy warrants Of this character in
scrip, holders will perceive that if the present op-
portunity of locating their warrants be lost another
may not offer. JAMES Fl. PIPER,
