The faculties for intellectual abilities, moral
worth and professional requirements, will com
pare favorably with the most distinguished OF
our country. The medical faculty constitutes
an anomaly in this or any other country--all
Of them are able lecturers and the best Of
teachers.
Those who contemplate our geographical pO-
sltion, and the extent of our population, can
have no doubt as to the eligibility Of our stu
alton for an enterprise Of the kind. As to
health, including all seasons of the year, re
deny that any other city has more.
A common error exists in the minds Of many
students relative to the place of studying med
icine; those who intend praclicing among the
diseases'o Of the west and south should certainly
educate themselves at school whose facultyare
practically acquainted with those diseases.
That the public may be satisfied of the per-
mqnency Of this school, we feel it our duty TO
state, that the Trustees and faculty form a unit
in action, which augurs well for its future sue
cess; and that the peculiar organization which
connects them, cannot be interrupted.

efficient application for diseased or de-
cayed lungs or any portion of the heshy
or muscular parts Of the human body.
Its medicinal and preservative qualities
were understood by the Egyptians in
the early ages ofthe world, and no doubt
now exists among scientific men, that
the preparation used in the embalment
of bodies, was composed principally of
this ingredient. In latter ages it was
found TO be in universal use among the
aborigines Of America, and at this day
1t is their principal, and in fact, only
medicine for an unscund state Of the
or any approach to it. Those who
are acquainted with the history Of this
hardy race Of men, know that a death
from consumption is unknown among
them! The medical faculty in all coun,
