The Faculties, for intellectual abilities MOI
al worth and professional requirements, vii
cembare favorably with the most distinguish
ed in our country. The medical faculty con-
stitutes an anomaly in this or any other
country. all Of them ara able lecturers and
he dest of teachers g
Those who will contemplate our geographi-
cal position and the extent eff our population,
can have no houbt as to the eligibility of our
situation for an enterprise of the kind. AS to
health, including all seasons of the year, we
deny that any other city has morse.
A common error exists in the minds of
many stude ats relative to the place ofstudying
medicine; those who intend practicing among
the diseases of the West and South shoald Ger
tainly educate themselves at a school whose
Faculty are particularly acquainted with those
diseases.
That the public may be satisfied of the per-
manency of this school, we feel it our duty to
tate, that the Trustees and Faculty form a
UNIT in action, which augurs well for its future
success; and that the peculiar internal organi-
zation which connects them, cannot be inter
