The plan Of instruction in this department of the
University, presents pecuaTtes, TO be found in no
other school Of medicine in the Union. The lee
lures commence on the lst Of October and terminate
on the 18th 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 are 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 an opportunity of beng
well grounded in Anatomy, Physiology, and other
elementary branches Of medical science before they
investigate their applications in eonnexion 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, on portions of approved text
books. 1t Is apparent that the plan, of which the
outlines have been briefly stated, is one which allows
the student to commence as well TO complete his
medical studies IN the institution, and presents
happy combination Of the advantages of the system
of instruction, by private puplage and that Of public
lectures. -.'.. O....
