Complete School of Physic in Ireland. 149 
existed in Trinity College, on Anatomy and Surgery, Chemistry 
and Botany. 
Throughout the 21st of George the Second, and the will of Sir 
Patrick Dunn, recited in it, the different Lectures are always men- 
_ tioned as being intended for the “¢ instruction of Students of Me- 
dicine, Surgery, and Pharmacy ;” and from thence arose the 
title of The Complete School of Physic, adopted in the subsequent 
acts, viz. the 25th, 3lst, and 40th of His present Majesty, in 
which the 2lst George the Second is constantly recognised as 
the foundation of the school, and as-being still in force, except 
6€as relates to the number of Professors, the Electors and the 
mode of election, the tenure and salaries of the said Professors, 
and the times and manner of lecturing.” 
Students. . 
The several Students in Physic are matriculated in the Uni- 
versity, for which they pay five shillings; but such Students, un- 
Jess they shall think proper, are not obliged to attend to the 
academical duties of the University. The several Lecturers, when 
they have delivered on half of their Courses, return to the senior 
Lecturer of Trinity College a list of such pupils as shall have at- 
tended them during such part of their Courses. 
Professors. 
There are six Professorships. Those of Anatomy and Surgery, 
of Chemistry, and of Botany, are on the foundation of ‘Trinity 
College, and are called the University Professorships ; those of 
the Institutes of Medicine, of the Practice of Medicine, and of 
Materia Medica, and Pharmacy, are on Sir Patrick Dunn’s foun- 
dation, and are named King’s Professorships. Provision is also 
made for the addition of a King’s Professor of Midwifery, as soon 
as Sir Patrick Dunn’s funds shall permit. 
“The King’s Professorships are open to persons of all nations 
professing their faith in Christ, and the Professorships of the 
University to Protestants of all nations ;” and for beth, it is re- 
quired either to have taken medical degrees in some University, 
or to have obtained a license to practice from the College of 
Physicians, in consequence of a ¢estimonium under the seal of 
Trinity College. Immediately before the election of any Profes- 
sor, the electors are sworn to vote without “ favour, partiality, or 
prejudice ;” and immediately on being declared elected, the Pro- 
fessor is sworn to perform *¢ his duties to the best of his skill and 
judgement.” The electors of the King’s Professors are the Pro- 
vost and the Professor of Physic of the University, with three 
physicians chosen by ballot from their own hody by the College 
of Physicians. ‘I'he University Professors are elected by the st ome
