The plan Of instruction in this department Of IN,
University presents peculIarIues To he found in no
other school of medicine IN the Union. The leo
lures commence the Is, Of October and terminate
on the 9th 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 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 being
well grounded in Anatomy Physiology, and Other
elementary branches of medical science before they
investigate their applications in connexion with Ii,
study Of the practice OF Medicine and Surgery.


Immediately before each lecture, the students Ar,
subjected TO full and rigid examination on the pre-
cedIng lecture, or on portions Of approved text
books. IL Is apparent that the plan, of which the
outlines have been briefly stated is one which allows
the student to commence well as to complete his
medical studies in the institution, and presents
happy combination Of the advantages of the system
of instruction, by private pupilage and that of public
lectures.

as candidate, and receive the degree of M. D.,
without reference to the time he has been engaged
IN the study OF medicine, of joining the school
provided he undergoes, in a satisfactory manner
the various examinations prescribed by the enact
