MEDICAL SCHOOL OF MAINE.

i his Schocu is uoder the direction of the Trustees and Overseers of the Col-

lege, and receives from the State One Thousand Dollars a year for the purpose

chiefly of procuring- Books, Plates, Preparations, and Apparatus. The law re-

quires the appointment, as soon as may be, of learned Professors of Medicine,

Anatomy, Surgery, Chemistry, Mineralogy, and Botany. There are, at present,

three professors, one of whom is now in Paris, aud will make extensive purchases

in Europe, for the benefit of the School. The particular management of this In-

stitution is committed to the Faculty of Medicine, who examine candidates for

the Degree of Doctor of Medicine, and recommend to the corporation of the

College for that Degree. In order to obtain it, two courses of Medical Lectures

must have been attended, the last of which, at least, must have been at Bruns-

wick ; three years must have been devoted to professional studies ; and some

knowledge of Latin, and of Experimental Philosophy must have been acquired.

The price of a ticket, admitting to the Lecture of one Professor, is 15 dollars;

cr 45 dollars for all the Lectures. The course begins about the middle of Feb-

ruary, and continues three months.
