LIBRAEY.
The Medical Library attached to this School is one of the best in the
United States. It contains about 4000 volumes, principally modern works,
which have been selected with much care, and is annually increasing. It
embraces the works of all authors of standard authority, also an extensive
and valuable collection of Plates.
Each member of the Medical Class is 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.
ANATOMICAL CABINET.
The Anatomical Cabinet was purchased in Paris, and many of the prepamade under the direction of the late Professor Thiliaye.

connected with that of Anatomy, to the manifest disadvantage of both.
The Faculty also take pleasure in announcing that Prof. Gerrish will, in
addition to his usual instruction, give a short course of lectures upon Public
Health. This will be a gratuitous service, but one of special value and importance.
It is rarely that an opportunity for specific study of this subject is
