TFHE Philadelphia University of Medi-
A cine and Surgery was organized in
1848. Chartered by the Legislature, Feb-
ruary 26, 1853. Name changed by a leg-
islative enactment to the Eclectic Medical
College of Philadelphia in 1860. In 1863 it
purchased the Pennsylvania Medical Col-
lege, established in 1842, and the Phila
delphia Medical College, which had pre-
viously been merged into the Pennsylva-
nia Medical College. In 1864 it purchased
the Penn Medical University. The Trus-
tees of the separate schools united, peti-
tioned, and obtained a special act of the
Legislature, consolidating these institu-
tions and changing their names to that
of the Philadelphia University of Medi-
cine and Surgery, March 15. 1865. All
these various acts are published in the
statutes of Pennsylvania. The cost of the
building and museum was over one hun-
dred thousand dollars. It will be ob
served that the University, as now organ-
ized, is the legal representative of the four
medical colleges that it has absorbed. It
is a liberal school of medicine, confined to
no dogma, nor attached to any medical
clique : but embraces in its teachings [
everything of value to the profession.
enter the institution as frequently as de
sired.
It requires no previous reading or study
to enter the University, hence, all private
tuition feesare saved.
Students, by holding scholarships, can
prosecute other business a part of the
time.
The candidate for graduation can pre-
sent himself at any time, and receive his
degree as soon as qualified.
In case a student should hold a schol-
arship and not be able to attend lec
tures, it can be transferred to another,
thus preventing any loss.
Parents, guardians, or friends of stu-
dents wishing to purchase scholarships for
them a year or more before their attend-
ance at the University, can secure them
by advancing one-half the price, asid paving
the balance when the student enters. Phy-
sicians and benevolent men can bestow
great benefit upon poor young men, by
presenting them a scholarship, and thus
enabling them to obtain an honorable
profession.
The Faculty embraces seventeen emi-
nent physicians and surgeons. The Uni-
versity has associated with it a large hos-
pital clinic where every form of medi-
cal and surgical disease is operated on

Messrs THoS B Bodley & Co ,
Agents for Gullet’s Steel Brush Cotton Gin.
Gentlemen—in reply to your request. I
take great pleasure in stating that during
the war and for many years previous I was
a planter in Harrison county, Texas. Two
of my neighbors were usino the Gullett-
Gin before the war. I often heard them
speak of thesamples, made on their gins,
being superior to any. gin they had ever
used. During the war I bought a large
amount of Cotton. I then discovered that
the Cotton ginned on the Steel Brush Gin was
far superior to any other that I bought. Since
the war I have been engaged in the cotton
factorage business in this city, during
which time I have had the selling of sever-
al lots of cotton ginned on the Gullett Gin
and in one or two instances sold cotton
produced by the same parties, on the same
quality of lands, on the same day; the cot
ton ginned on the Steel Brush Gin sold for
two cents more than that ginned on
a different gin. I have no hestitation in
saying that cotton ginned on this gin will
sell for an average of one cent per pound
more than cetto ginned on most of the
gins used in the country I would advise
every planter who expects to make as*
much as fifty bales of cotton to get one of

Marion Harland,
A traveler, while wending his
way through the eastern part of
the State of New York, stopped
over night at the village of S--,
with some friends who were great
wags in one of the bed rooms of
the house there was a bedstead
faatened by pullies to the ceiling.
Night time came, and the traveler
was shown to the room, A girl
led the way, candle in hand, and
after pointing out the bed, bepart-
ed with the light, saying that
she needed it for the other lodgers,
The traveler undressed and
groped his way to tbo l ed, or to
the spot where he had seen it, but
was amazed to find that it had dis-
appeared. From corner to corner
he groped, but search was useless.
Somewhat frightened, he com-
menced shouting, proclaiming that
the house was bewitched. The
landlord and two or three of bis
guests, bearing lights, answered
his emphatic summons, and just as
he was about to tell the story of
the missing bed, he looked, and lo!
there it stood as it was before. He
tried to inform them of his inability
to find the bedstead, but they only
laughed at him, telling him he must
be crazy. Bidding him good night,
and advising him to go to bed at
once and sleep off the delirium,
they left him. As soon as they
shut the door be made a dive for
the bed and landed on the floor
He then began to halloa and yell'
louder than ever, and darted for
the door. In attempting to de-
scend the stairs he fell to the bot-
tom, making such a terrible noise
that all the inmates rushed to him
to learn the cause of the disaster.
Again he told his story, but it was
received with ridicule, To satisfy
him that he had been mistaken,
one of the guests proposed to en-
ter the room with him and remain
there until he should fall asleep,
tbe proposition was gladly accep-
ted, and in about twenty-five min-
utes the traveler was sound asleep.
The wags then gently hoisted the
bedstead almost to the ceiling, and
commenced shouting “fire, murder,"
etc. Thoroughly alarmed, he
sprang out of the bed, but the dis-
tance being fully six times what he
had calculated, be imagined that
he had fallen over fifty feet. Fear
seemed to strengthen his lungs,
and he shouted like a trooper, pros
claiming that the house was haun-
ted, and that the imp of darkness
had attempted to fly away with
him. The other guests who had en
tered the room, coolly pointed to
the bedstead, saying it could not
be moved; but they were unable to
shake the belief that his infernal
majesty had taken refuge in the
mysterious bed.
