OBSTETRICS.

The lectures on this branch comprehend an account of all
labours, natural, preternatural, and instrumental, the professional
assistance to be afforded in each, the treatment of the female before,
during, and after delivery, and the diseases of infancy.
The lectures are amply illustrated by specimens and plates, and
all manual evolutions, and the application of instruments, are
demonstrated on the improved phantome of Hebermehl. The
students also practise manual and instrumental delivery on the
mannikin. Text-books—the last edition of Meigs.
