Force, by destroying tie attractions 

 of attracted matter, exhibits 



The results of force, in consequence 

 of the resistance of old or previously 

 existing attractions, produce the 

 phenomena called 



These latter, being the result of force, 

 exhibit 



accompanying table to show at one view how physical phenomena may be 

 produced, and how the entire range of physical studies constitutes physical 

 science. 



Matter is matter, and solely exists by the wiU of God. Matter is 

 made up of finite particles or atoms ; a sei-ies constituting number, and 

 the study of number arithmetic.

 School op Medicine. By Aleebd Smee, F.R.S., Lectui-er on 

 Surgery at the Aldersgate School, Surgeon to the Royal General 

 Dispensary, to the Central London Ophthalmic Institution, to the 

 Bank of England, to the Provident Clerks' Mutual Benefit Associa-

Gentlemen, — The solemn occasion for which we are this day col- 

 lected together, is to inquire into the nature of the studies necessary for 

 the education of a gentleman, to enable him to practise medical science. 

 Ton win doubtless consider that it wiU sufB^ce for me simply to enumerate 

 the views of those associations of great men who, in different countries, 

 preside over the members of the medical profession ; but, unfortunately, 

 on a more careful examination into their proceedings, we perceive that the
