wv TUTE.--The undersigned, propretors of
the Institute, having completed arrangements which
have been for sometime in progress, are now ready
to receive students.


This institution is intended to afford instruction
to Medical students, not only by the common mode
Of private pupage, (by which the preceptor, by
more imperous calls on his attention, is denied time
sufficient to do more than to direct the students in
course of study, and perhaps to as few gen.
eral questions on each autho) but it is designed to
offer the student all those facilities acquire med
cial education. which are afforded by daily lee
Tures and full examinations, and to furnish
all such collateral aids to instruction. as iIIustra-
tIoNs by drawings, dry and wet anatomical prep
arations, pathological specimens, and chemical ex-
periments; also, demonstrations by manual and in
strumental operations on the obstetrc phantome and
the application of surgical apparatus and bandages.
The art of prescribing and compounding medicines
will be practically taught; and especial care will
be taken to give the student practical acquain-
tance with the modern mode of investigation and
diagnosis by ausculation and percussion, &c.


The course of instruction is intended to equal
the highest standard Of medical education in this
country, and every Incentive and facility to an
dent and persevering cultivation of the principles of
the science will be afforded SO to beget spirit
of inquiry that will not rest satisfied with the aequ
sition of the period of pupilage.


The annual course of instruction will embrace
two sessions. The first, from the second Monday
of November till the last of February, will be de-
voted wholly to full examinations on the subjects
lectured on in the Columbian Medical College.
The second session will commence on the second
Monday of March and terminate the last of Octo-
ber; during which instruction will be given the
various branches of medicine by lectures and daily
examinations. Students may enter for one both
sessions. Terms 500 per annum, payable in ad-
vance.
