During thirteen years, fourteen hundred and twenty individuals have been enrolled as students, of whom six hundred and twenty-six have come from Maryland Qincluding four hundred and ninety- four from Baltimorel, and seven hundred and ninety-four from fifty other states and countries. Of this number eight hundred and nineteen persons pursued courses as graduate students, and six hundred and one as collegiate students. Since degrees were first conferred, in 1878, one hundred and seventy-seven persons have attained the Baccalaureate degree, and one hundred and thirty-one have been advanced to the degree of Doc- tor of Philosophy, as appears from the following table :-, l I A.

The completion of a noble group of buildings for the Iohns Hopkins Hospital, its large, separate, and unimpaired endowment, and, above all-, the enlightened a11d far- sighted vision of its managers, are signs of progress upon which the eyes of the medical and surgical world are fixed. It was the in- junction of the founder that the hospital when completed should form a part of the medical school of the university of which he was also the founder, and, accordingly, while every appliance which science and humanity can suggest for the relief of the sick and wounded has been provided, the hospital authorities have con- stantly borne in mind the prospective requirements of a high school of medicine. The time has not yet come for tl1e complete unfold- ing of their purposes. What they will do is largely a question of money. But every step that has been taken indicates a consistent and determined purpose to contribute to the advancement of medi- cine and surgery, with an enlightened regard to the welfare of man- kind.
