The Faculties, for intellectual abilities, moral
worth and professional requirements, will compare
favoraby with the most distinguished in our conn-
try The medical faculty constitutes an anomaly
in this or any other country--all of them are lee
turers and the best of teachers.
Those who will contemplate our geographical
position and the extent of population, can have
no doubt as to the eligibility of our situation for
an enterprise of The kind. AS to the health, in
cludng all seasons of the year, we deny that any
other city has more.
common error exists in the minds of many
students relative to the place OF studying medicine;
those who intend practising among the diseases oi

themselves at school whose Faculty practi-

That the public may be satisfied of the perma-

that the Trustees and Faculty form unit in
action, which augurs well for its future success;
and that the peculiar internal organization which
connects them cannot be interrupted.
