The Valedictory Address was then delivered by Gerald Fitzgerald Dale, wuo spoke substan tially as follows : Ladies and Gentlemen : The occasion which has brought us together to-day, at the close of another College year, naturally Hueuesis a train o' thought in which Is displayed a striking illustration of the won derlul laws ty whicn the universe Is governed laws silent in their workings, but powerful and ell'uctuat la producing harmonious results. peclally Is this adaptation seen in tbe fact that the wor d is constantly provided with a auccesiion ot f eopleofoll ages, talent, and tastes, Utted to con ribute these two necessary elements ot every well ordered community the ine of progress, and the other ot ronservatism. Each new generation as It ad vances la gradua'ly prepared with all the zeal, tire, and energy which an inexperienced youth has be queathed, and with all tli e vigor which a last ripen ing manhood bestows, ably to represent the progres sive class. I. lie is uuknuwn! Beautiful theories of gigantic undertakings have not yet proved Imprac ticable; the far-seeing vision of hope hus not yet been dimmed; the wretched condition ot tbe disappointed and wrecked is not that awaiting those iust starting out In lire,' theirs will be that which now lelongs to the wisest, the best, tbe most loved and esteemed I As time passes on age seals with furrowed brows and silver locks tbe fast diminishing- genera tion. Llle becomes a stem reality. Castles have floated away on the air upon which ttaev have been built. Hope has been blighted, or if realized , the ob jects gained are wanting in tbnt enchautment whlcn distance gave them. Only a lew occupy the positions which all bad thought within their reach. Experience bas been a Beere teac'ier, but has Im parted valuable lessons, tending to prepare a conser vative class, holding with the tenacity of despair to tried Institutions and serving as a wholesome check to tbe impetuosity and ardor ot the rising generation. But would the world move If this element predomi nated T The All-wise Author of tbe laws of nature bas guarded against this dilllculty, and bas provided a broader and wider Held In another world, where all may hope to find ample opportunity tor maklug use of the experience gained In this. Few reach a good old age, and every one who Is spared Is needed to serve, not as a means of annihilat ing, but as a means of checking and keeping within its proper sounds, that cIbbi which we have termed tbe Element of Progress. In time or reaction, too, as ur recent experience shows, when the nation is rocked to ass fro by storms ot adversity, or reeling under the broadside of opposing nations, theyouuger portion ol the commun'ty, who, at the outstart, were the most sanguine aud hopeful, are the first to despair; and the lirai. solid, substantial phalanx of mors matured miuds is needed to encourage, by precept and example; and tnus to breast the storm. All honor then to tne aged I belt-Interest, to say nothing of nobler springs of action, prompts us to cherish and revere tbeinl Yet they too must pass away. Even now tbe whole race is advancing one step onward; the order comes to us to till the places which older ones have lell vacant, and the class of '"07" to-day answers to the call, as we meet to bid our college Ills a last but sad farewell I , It is with teellngs of pride, gentlemen of the honor able Board of Trustees, that we turn to you as the fathers of our loved Alma Mater.

Ot the many public Institutions or which Philadel phia csn boast, none surpass those for medical educa tion. In this department of science we have been fa vored with the labors of a Hbippen, Rush, Wlslar. PhyHlc, Bartou, Dewees, Godnian, Eberle, aud a host ot othtrs equally eminent. Phlladelphlaos have Just cause to feel rejoiced at the excellence ot their medical colleges, aud in the fast ol our city being acknowledged as the medical metropolis ol the United Slates. Hers obstetrics has become a science, and surgery advanced fully equal to the Euiopeau state. Philadelphia surgery Is no where secondary. Hhe has the oldem surgical clinic, and can show the greatest number or surgical opera tions, besides having the largest and best assorted medical library In the country. Here was established the first medical school In the Union, and here are now the largest uumoer ot medical colleges, the most valuable publications, tbe most learned authors, and by far the greatest number of medical students. The University of Pennsylvania had been In exist ence, first as a simple academy, and then as a college, some sixteen years before a system of medical in struction was admitted Into its plan. This event took place on the Sd of May. A. 1). 1765, the date at which the first medical professor was appointed. This was undoubtedly the first medical oollege In the United Htates. The idea of establishing this school In Philadelphia was conceived by Dr. William bhippen and Dr. Wil liam Morgan. Dr. Morgan formed the project of engrafting a medl cul department In the (then) College of Philadelphia, sud secured In its favor several of tbe most lnltuen tlal friends ot the Institution, both lu Great Britain and America. The project was laid before tbe trustees on the Id of May, 17115. and approved. Dr. Morgan was Immedi ately appointed Professor of the Theory and Practice of Medicine, and on the 23(1 of September, In the tame year. Dr. tdiippen was appointed Professor ot Anatomy and t-urgery. At the present time the University has Its profes sors tor all the respective branches, aud Includes In the faculty sucli eminent gentlemen as Rev. Daniel It. Goodman, D. I)., Provost; John F. Fr.ir.er. LL I)., Vlce-Provosi; and Proiessors Gibson, Wood, JackHon, Mnage, rruzer, Alien, biiarstvonn, enrson. Miner, Rogers, Trego, Leldy, Smith, Jackson, Kendull, lingers, Schatler. Lesley.

It Is abundantly furnished with preparations of every kind calculated to give the fullest illustratloi) of a course of anatomical lectures. The Surgical Cabinet is richly supplied with the means ot demonHrating and thech-uiical apparatus Is equal In extent and variety to any In tbe country. Tbe Medical Hal, is admirably adapted to the pur noses of the school. It Is central In location, and has ample space around for tbe free circulation of air. Its dimensions aud architectural character are such as not lo appear inco gruotis with the extent of the school, and the high, objects for which It was esta blished.
