    CORRESPONDENCE. Jefferson-Medical College, Jan. 20th, 1847. Prof. Meigs : Dear Sir—At a special meeting of the Class, held at the College the 12th inst, it was Resolved, That a committee be appointed to request of Professor Meigs a copy of the Lecture delivered the 5th inst., on the Distinctive Characteristics of the Female, for publication. We, as representatives of the Class, solicit the same, hoping it may meet with your approbation. Yours, &c, M. Henrt Lact, Va. G. W. Wimlet, Pa. Benj. Neff, Ohio. I. Weirich, Pa. Dan'l M. Stout, N. J. Philadelphia, Jan. 21st, 1847. Gentlemen—I have the honor herewith to hand you the Lecture which you as organs of the Class, have requested for publication. It is assuredly unnecessary that I should say how flattering to a public instructor is such a proceeding on the part of the gentlemen whom he has the honor to address in the lecture room. I should not feel at liberty, under such circumstances, to refuse the request of the Class, whose patient attention and most admirable conduct in the College are the object of so much congratulation among all the friends of learning. I have the honor to be, with grateful respect. Your obedient and faithful servant, CH. D. MEIGS. To Mr. Lacv, Chairman, and Messrs. Wimlet, Neff, Weirich and Stout, Members of a Committee of the Class.
