Abstract
THE Times reports that the University of Berlin celebrated on Thursday last the ninetieth anniversary of its foundation by Frederick William III. The oration was delivered by the retiring rector, Dr. Waldeyer, professor of anatomy, who took for his text the question, “Does the University of Berlin fulfil the mission entrusted to it by its founder?” As a contribution to the discussion of this question, he gave a learned and interesting account of the history of anatomical teaching in Berlin. Dr. Waldeyer is succeeded as rector by Prof. Fuchs, the distinguished mathematician.
