The Faculties, for intellectual abilities, moral
worth and professional acquirements, will com-
paro favorably with the most distinguished in
ourcountry. The medical faculty constitutes
an anomaly in this or any other country—all of
them are able lecturers and the bust of toachors.
Those who will contemplate our geographical
position, find the extent of our population, can
have no doubt as to the eligibility of our situa-
tion for an enterprise of tho kind. As to health,
including all seasons of tho year, wudeny that
any other city hits more.
A common orror exists in the minds of manv
students relative to the place of studying medi-
cine; thoso who intend practicing among the
diseases of the West and South should certainly
educate themselves at a school whoso Faculty
are practically acquainted with th >se diseases.
That the public may be satisfied of the per-
manency, of this school, we f el it our duty to
state, that the Trusteesand Faculty forma unit
in action, which augurs well for its future suc-
cess; and that 'he peculiar internal organiza-
tion which connects them, cannot be interrup
