.A.NNOUNCEMENT.

---- ....----

The regular Annual Course of Lectur s in this Inl'ititu­tion will commence on the first ronday in May, 1859, andbe continued for eighteen weeks.

The Medical Faculty of the University of the Pacific, inannouncing this, the first course of medical instructionever given upon this coast, feel warranted in claiming [or~an Franci. co a uperiority in climate over either of theEastern citie.·; which 'will render the otherwi 'e arduouslabor of the student comparatively ea!';y and agr cable onthe one hand, and facilitate the. tudy of practical Anatomyirrespective of ::ieaSOll, on the other.

Jnde d, the opportuniti s for prosecuting the tudy ofpractical Anatomy in tLis city are superior t any knownregion of the globe. Imler endent of the advantages inclimate, material for di. section is abundant and cheap, andour salubrious breezes not only preserve the cadaver for anindefinite length of time, but secure the health of th·e stu­dent from injury, the COll. equence of eilluvium, so constantan attendant upon dissections elsewhere.

'tudents, therefore, of all tropical countries, and of the~ outhem ~ tates of our Union, as w 11 as of the North,

WllO are unable, from these cau. es, to pro ecute their. tud­ieR, will find it greatly to their advautage to repair to SanFranci~co.

Again: to every medical practitioner upon thi' coast,the fhct is patent that disease here bas it peculiarities,demanding treatment e sentially different from that re­Rorted to in the same disea es upon the Atlantic bor ]er ;hence, to the stuuent of medicine, the necessity of beinginst.ructe 1 at home, must be apparent.

CLINICAL INSTRUCTION.

b connection with the LectureR, there has been a medi­cal and surgical clinic establi hed, and throughout thecour:-; , diRea.'es in all their varieties and stages may bestudied at the bec1-,·ide. In addition to the clinic.', outcloor patients will be prescribed for before the dasR, andopportunities affordeu the student for observation andprnctice under the guidance of one of the prores. orR.

Clinical Lectures will al.'o be given on \<Vedne day andSatmday of each week, on Practice of Medicine, Surgery.,'p cl,ll Pat.hological Anatomy, on Physical Diagnosi~,AUR­cultat.ion and Percussion, and upon the Diseases of 'Women

and Children.TIm J\IImwAL CLINIC, will be under the direction of Pro-

fessor Morison.THE SUIWICAL CUNfC, under Professor Cooper.TilE OnsTETlU '.\L CLL~IC, including Diseases of 'Vomen

and Children, under Profes or Cole.

The facnlty would invite eApecial attention to the fact,that, in view of the many casualtie~, injurie., and deathf:from violenc ,cases of poi oning and insanity, occurringin this State, lin-olving legal investigation, the Tru teeshave created the Ch:1ir of Medical Jurisprudence, a sciencebut rarely taught in the medical chools of the United"tates; bU,t from the frequency with which medical menin thi.' 'tn,te [Ire called to teo tify upon que:-3tions involYinga knowledge of thi:-3 science, it is rendered incE pensableto a thorough course of instruction.

lIon. Geo. Barstow, an eminent member of the legn,lprofef::-3ion, has been appointed to fill this pOAition.

From the high reputation Mr. Barstow deservedly en­joys, both as a hwyqr and a writer, the Trustees feel greatpleasure in announcing to the profe sion his acceptance ofthe chair of Medical Jurisprudence in the University ofthe Pacific.

1'UE MusEmI of the University is pro idell with mate­rial. and apparatus for demonstration, fitted for illustratingthe Ie tures in the various department.·.

SPECI L BRANCHES OF STUDY.

The following brn.nche. are annually taught: Principlei'land Practice of Medicine, Anatomy, Physiology, Surgery,Chemistry, Materia -Mc lic[l, Clinical '.'Ul'{Tery, ClinicalMedicine, Pitthology, Midwifery, Diseases of vVomen andChildren, and led icnl Jurisprudence.

PNflIOLOGY AND PIllNCIPLES AND PltACTWE OF MEDICINE.­It will be the aim of the lecturer in thi:-3 department toimpart to the student the most important practical knowl­edge, to present in his lectures a . ummary of those facts

and principles embraced in the practice of medicine at thepresent time, which furni.h the only safe guide to themedical man.

IIe will endeavor to give a faithful description of dis­eases, their etiology, ymptollls, diagnosis, progno. i , Ie ions,and treatment.

IIe will convey to the student a knowledge of the pa­thological changes v,hich occur in different Ii. eases, bymeans of plates, yarious pI' parations, and J y recent speci­mens of diseased parts. A medical clinic will he given atthe Pacific Clinical Infirmnry, where the stud nt will havean or portunity <?f testing by the evidence of his senses,those facts and principles ,,,hlch have been taught in thelecture room. Every effort will be made to impart prac­tical instruction in the diagno. is and treatment of dis­eo, es.

E 'pecial attention will be given to the diagno is ofdisea es of the che t by auscultation and percussion.

CIlE;\IISTRY.- f O effort will be wanting to make the ini­tial course upon thi important branch of science, asthoroughly practical and instructive to the cIa 'S, as isgi en in similar institutions in the Atlantic tat s.

All important principle in chemistry will be illustrat.edwith suitable apparatu. for that purpose, and facts insteadof theories presented in a clear and comprehensive man­ner.

Toxicology, will receive that careful attention which itsmedico-legal importance demands.

PUYSIOLOGY.-The lectures in this department, will em­brace a consideration of both general and ,pecial physi­ology, including all that has been developed. through themicroscope, up to the present time, and will be illustrated

by the large t and mo t complete series of colored draw­ings in the United tate, prepared expres ly for the electures.

These drawing., have been furnished, and are designedto convey to the mind of the. tndent idea which it is im­pos:-:;ible to communicate by language alone.

When expedient, the microscope, an in trulllent towhich the science of physiology is much indebted, will beused for illustrating important f.'1et and principles, 1,tndthe student will not only receive instruction in theory, butin the means of ar!:iving at facts in this importan t science.

ANATO~lY.-The lectures on anatomy will be fully illus­trat d by preparations, and the cadaver.

~ URGl>RY.-Instruction in this department will embrace:1 t. A regular cour. e of lectures on the principles ~md

prn.ctice of Surgery. 2d. Demonstrative urgery uponthe caclcwer. 3d. Experimental • urgery, by vivi ection, inwhich many of the most important principles are indeliblim] res ed upon the mind of the student. Members of thecla. s arc permitted to as ist in the experiments uponanimal, and afterwards expected to repeat them underthe eye of the Professor of 'urgery. Thi is an exerci'eabove n.ll other calculated to school the hand, the nerve,and the eye, of the pupil, and thereby give him t~lC ~x­

perience he at once r quires, in performing the duties ofan operative surgeon; a featur in medica1education how­ever, almost entirely neglected in many other medicalschools.

In thir:; State, where from numerou casualties, prac­titioners are constantly lin.ble to encounter iujurie requir­ing the gravest urgical operations, without coun<::elor time to prepare them elves for the duty; all

candidates for graduation will be expected to showth lll. elve experts in vivi. ection, which can b so favor­ably conducted at all time. in this city.

OnSl'RETRICS AND Dl EAS]~i:\ OF "Y~rO~lEN A?\'U CIllWRB .-Inthis course there will be no lack of effort to hring everything pertaining to this department as clearly and practi­cally before the mind of the student as the pre ent stateof the. cience will admit.

The lectures will be amply illustrated by colored draw­ingR, many of whir.h have been taken from nature, and alsoby wet preparations. The diaerent operations ill obstetricswill be performed upon a manikin, and the student will beinstructed and practiced in the use of obstetrical instru-

-ments.

MATERIA MEDICA A D PJIAR~IACY.-lt will be the aim ofthe Professor of Materia Medica, to bring before th classall that is of importance, and bears the impres.' of truth,connected with this department, in such a manner as to bereadily comprehended by the student.

The lectures will be illustrated by colored drawingF~,

the exhibition of the variou medicinal substances in usewhen de cribing them, and by demonstrating their re­actions and combination~.

Recent plants will be presented anu described when ex­pedient, particularly those (hat arc indigenous to our. oil, ofwhich there are many varieties scattered over this 'Vastregion, posseRsing great therapeutic value, a knowledge ofwhich is inclispensable to a practitioner of medicine in this

ountr)'.
