All the Members of the Medical Class are entitled to borrow two volumes

a week from the Library. Those, who are candidates for examination for the

degree of M. D. during the year, are permitted to exchange their books twice

a week, thus giving them the privilege ofconsulting four volumes each week.

24 MEDICAL SCHOOL,

ANATOMICAL CABINET.

The Anatomical Cabinet was purchased in Paris ; and most of the Prepa-

rations wore there made under the direction of the late Professor Thillaye.

Many wet preparations have however been added from year to year.

—

Its valuable specimens of Morbid and Comparative Anatomy are also con-

stantly increasing; so that every department of practical Anatomy can now

be fully demonstrated from this collection.

The students, divided into classes containing 3 or 4 individuals, are fur-

nished with the separated bones of the Skeleton for examination at their pri-

vate rooms.

The Chemical Department embraces every Article of Apparatus essential

to a complete illustration of the principles of Chemistry. This Course also

includes a very full exhibition of the principles of Common and Galvanic

Electricity, Electro-Magnetism, and Magneto-Electricity, with numerous

experiments.

Lectures will also be given to the Medical Class on those departments of

Natural Philosophy, which are especially connected with Medical Science.

An extensive and valuable collection of Instruments and Apparatus has

been provided for the department of Surgery ; which will be completed by

the Lecturer in this Department. Frequent opportunities for witnessing Sur-

gical operations will be afforded.

All operations in the presence of the Medical Class will be performed

without charge. It is considered important, that this fact should be exten-

sively made known to the Public.

The foregoing is a brief statement of the means ofacquiring Medical Know-ledge, which may be enjoyed at this Institution. No efforts Avill be spared

by the Professors wrhich may tend to render these means beneficial, and to

promote the instruction of pupils in Medical Science.
