MEDICAL COLLEGE OF VIRGINIA.

In our advertising columns will be found to e
announcement of the Annual Course of Lee
lures in this Institution, which we commend to
the particular attention of those who have en-
tered upon the study of medicine, and who are
seeking the means of prosecuting it to the best
advantage. The capacities Of our Richmond
School have been fully tested by more than
thirty years of successful teaching, through all
the yicissitudes of peace and war; and in point
of organization and facilities for instruction, it
is In better condition al this time than at any pre-
yious period of its history. Its faculty now con-
sists of nine Professors all of them qualified by
the REQUISITE experience, both in teaching and in
practice for the efficient discharge their func-
lions. and all of them in the prime of life.
The facilities afforded by Richmond, with its
5000 inhabitants, may be confidently stated to
be ample for the demands of a fourishing Medi-
cal School Such population will always fur
nish to the institutions for the reception and
treatment of the SICK (as indicated in the Col
lege announcement large number of cases for
the practical instruction of the student, both in
medicine and surgery; and the advantage to the
Southern physician of acquiring knowledge OF
disease in Southern locality, and under South
errs Teachers, is too obvious to require demon
s%stion. The ready accessibility of Richmond
from all quarters It's beauty, its favorable climate,
and its social advantages, constitute so many at
fractions for the medical student. who is about
deciding for himself the question, "Where shall
go to attend lectures ?' We confidently
assure all SUCH that if their choice shall fall upon
Richmond they will not regret it.

The following letter is from Mr.. Woodward OF

don, Conn. Mr.. w. is a gentleman Of high res

who have used it has BEEN that they would not
be willing to go to bed at night without it in the

On the appearance of the cholera in this city,
such was the confidence in the Pain Killer as q
to that they had no fears or dread of the chol-
era as long as they had the Pain Killer by them,
and hundreds took it daily as preventive, for
no person can have arrangement of the bow

the remedy in large quantities, and in every case
when it has been taken In any of the first stages
of this disease, it has proved successful. fasi

heard of any Individual in any family who used
the Pain Killer when attacked but, speedily re-
covered.
p The clerk informed me that he administered it
to. persons when cold or in the cramps, and it
gave Immediate relief but still it should be given
quickly, for when the discharge of 'rice water

disease make its appearance among you, as IN all

VALLEY RAILROAD ELECTION.

The election which occurred in this county,
on Saturday last, on the question of subscribing
$500 600 to the stock of the Valley r. r. Com
pany was defeated, as the required three-fffths
majority was not obtained. The defeat of thesub-
scripton is due chiefly, as was apprehended,
to the fact that the Shenandoah Valley r. r.
Company succeeded in making the impression
in the Eastern portion of the county that their
road will be constructed through that portion OF
the county without cost.
We regret, on many accounts, the defeat Of
the subscription, but do not despair yet of hay
ing the Valley r. r. built. -
We have faith that some means will be adopt
ed which will ensure the construction of this
road. It is too important an Improvement to fail
of being constructed. The following is the vote:

Sinking Slowly.

Diseases that progress rapidly to crisis are

rot does not blast tree as suddenly as stroke

certainly and in like manner chronic debility,
although it does not kill with the swiftness of
yellow fever, is sure to sap the springs OF life
eventually as any acute disease, if not checked
by invigorating medication. There is something
inexpressibly touching in the spectacle of pre-
mature decay. Languor pallor, emaciation, de-
preston of spirits, and distaste for exerton,
are its ordinary symptoms, and they should be
promptly met by tonic treatment The bestsin-

vital forces thus brought into play. The failing
appetite is re-awakened, the process of digestion
and assimilation are quick ened. the quality of

more natural, and every organ that contributes
