ROPER, M.A. (Class Hon.) of Keble College, Oxford, receives a limited number of Pupils to prepare for the Public Schools, Universities, the Britannia and other Examinations. Mr. Roper is assisted by a Resident Tutor and a Resident German Master (for Music and Languages), besides well-qualified Visiting Masters. The staff of teachers is large in proportion to the number of boys, which permits of those who are backward or in delicate health receiving much individual help. Care is taken to interest all boys in their work, and to make it thorough. Particular attention is paid to the study of French, and boys can be otherwise specially prepared, if wished, in modern subjects. Hours of work are from 9.30 to 12.30, 3.30 to 5.30, and 7 to 8. Wednesdays and Saturdays are half-holidays. The House stands on the East Cliff, in the best part of Bournemouth. It is close to the sea, but well sheltered by the pines. The soil is gravel and sand. The household management is superintended by Mrs. Roper ; there is also a competent Matron. The bedrooms are large and airy, and the arrangements thoroughly comfortable. The well known mild but bracing climate of Bournemouth, and the beneficial effects of the pine trees, render it a very desirable place for boys in delicate health. The situation and general arrangements of the House are well adapted to meet the requirements of those who are not strpng, and great care is taken of them, both in School and out. There is a Playground attached to the House, and a large covered Gymnasium. A Drill-Sergeant attends regularly. All healthy amusements are encouraged ; Mr. Roper, or those helping him, always joining with the boys in their games. There is good bathing in the sea close by, and swimming lessons may be had. The House is near the Church. The year is divided into Three Terms, according to the Public School System. A Term’s Notice, or Fee, required previous to the removal of a Pupil. FEES, PAYABLE EACH TERM IN ADVANCE. For boys under twelve 80 guineas a year. over twelve ..... 100 ,, ,, The extras are Music, Drawing, and the usual personal expenses.

South Kensington Preparatory School, FOR THE of oBtenxen cmd Q penttemen , 35, HEREFORD SQUARE, GLOUCESTER ROAD, SOUTH KENSINGTON, LONDON, S.W. Principal - - A. S. B. SCOTT, Assisted by Masters and Governesses. This School was established in 1867 for the purpose of providing for the sons of noblemen and gentlemen thorough training and instruction on the soundest educational principles, thereby enabling them to take a high position in any of the great public schools. The School is situated at the corner of Hereford Square and Gloucester Road, South Kensing- ton. It stands on a deep bed of gravel in one of the healthiest parts of London, and within two minutes’ walk of the Metropolitan Station, Gloucester Road. It is within three or four minutes’ walk of the Horticultural Gardens, the South Kensington, Natural History, and India Museums, all of which are favourite resorts of the boys in recreation hours. Kensington Gardens are also within a few minutes’ walk of the School, and to these the boys have access for play. During play and recreation hours the boys are under the supervision of a master. The class-rooms are provided with diagrams, models, specimens of plants, minerals, and objects of natural history, as well as with the most highly approved educational apparatus. Special care is taken not to over-tax or weary young pupils by long and uninviting lessons, but on the contrary to present every subject to the mind in its most attractive form, in order to awaken in the pupils a lively and intelligent interest in their studies, and in all that is passing around them. But the chief feature of the School is the thoroughness of the system adopted for grounding the pupils in each branch of instruction. By this method the more advanced course is rendered comparatively easy, and the progress much more rapid and pleasant than usual. Another beneficial result of the system pursued is that the pupils are singularly happy, and rarely fail to take a lively and increasing interest in their studies. The youngest pupils are taught by an experienced governess, under the direct and constant supervision of the Principal. In order that pupils may enjoy all the comforts of a home, and that strict individual attention may be given to their religious, moral, and intellectual training, as well as to their health and physical education, the numbers received at the School are strictly limited. Written and viva voce examinations by public examiners take place at the end of the term ; and the papers, as well as reports of the results of the examinations and of the work done during the term, are sent home for the inspection of parents. No pupil is retained at the School whose conduct and progress are considered unsatisfactory. Particular attention is paid to the development of the varied powers of the mind, as well as the emotional nature, in order to lay the foundation of those principles which will enable them in after life to occupy the positions of Christians and gentlemen. The course of instruction includes all English subjects, together with Latin, Greek, French, and Mathematics. The extra subjects are German, Music, Drawing, Drilling, Gymnastics, and Riding.

Creagurer. i ^ecmarp. E. E. PINCHES, B. A. | C. R. HODGSON, B.A. The College of Preceptors was established in the year 1846, and incorporated by Royal Charter in the year 1849, “ for the purpose of promoting sound learning and of advancing the interests of education, especially among the middle classes, by affording facilities to the teacher for acquiring a knowledge of his profession, and by providing for the periodical session of a com- petent Board of Examiners, to ascertain and give certificates of the acquirements and fitness for their office of persons engaged or desiring to be engaged in the education of youth.” With this view, the Charter empowers the College to hold Examinations of Teachers and Schools, and to grant Diplomas and Certificates to such persons as pass these Examinations satisfactorily. To effect these objects, two plans of examination have been established : 1st. That of Teachers, to ascertain their qualifications and fitness to take part in the work of instruction ; and, 2nd. That of Pupils, to test their progress, and to afford at once to the Teacher and to the public a satisfactory criterion of the value of the instruction they receive. The Diplomas granted by the College to Teachers are of three grades; viz., Associate, Licentiate, and Fellow ; and the distinctive feature of these Examinations is, that in all cases the ‘'Theory and Practice of Education” is an obligatory subject for each grade. The Pupils’ Examinations were established in the year 1854, and have been carried on periodically since that time with steadily increasing success. The number of pupils examined for Certificates during the year 1883 was about 14,000; and at the present time more than 2,700 schools in various parts of the country from time to time send up candidates for examination. The Higher Certificates of the College are recognised by Her Majesty’s Judges, and by the General Medical Council, as guarantees of good general education ; and consequently the holders of them, who may intend to enter the Legal and Medical professions, are exempted from the necessity of submitting to the Preliminary Literary Examinations held by the Incorporated Law Society, and by the various Medical Corporations of the United Kingdom. The Examinations, both of Teachers and of Pupils, are open to both sexes. There is a large proportion of female candidates at each Examination for Diplomas, and the number of Girls’ Schools from which pupils are sent up as candidates for certificates is now very considerable, and is rapidly increasing. Courses of Lectures on the Science and Art of Education are regularly delivered under the direction of the Council, and Evening Meetings of the members of the College are held monthly (except during the Christmas and Midsummer vacations), for the purpose of reading and dis- cussing papers upon subjects connected with education. Full reports of these meetings and. discussions are published in the Educational Times, the journal of the College, which is sent monthly to every Member. Members also have the use of a Library of Educational Works, con- sisting of about 5,000 volumes, to which additions are constantly being made. The Annual Subscription to the College is one guinea ; a single payment of ten guineas confers the privilege of Life Membership. All persons engaged in education are admissible as members, subject to election by the Council ; but all candidates are required to give evidence o c having passed an examination satisfactory to the Council before some recognised examining body, or, failing that, to pass an examination at the College. The Regulations of the Examinations of candidates for Diplomas and membership, and of pils in schools, mry be obtained on application to the Secretary at the College. C. R. HODGSON, B.A., Secretary.

TELEGRAPH OFFICE -Twyford, Berks. Principal: The Rev. A. R. PRITCHARD, M.A. Oxon. Vice-Principal: E. CARLISLE, Esq. (late Foundation Scholar of St. John’s College Cambridge, 19th Wrangler in 1878). The staff of Assistant Instructors now consists of seven gentlemen, five of whom are resident in Wargrave, and, like Mr. Pritchard and Mr. Carlisle, devoting their entire time to the Pupils at Hill Lands. All these gentlemen are graduates in (very) high honours from their re spective Universities, and possessed of some years’ successful experience in instructing in the subjects they undertake previously to their joining Mr. Pritchard, Mr. PRITCHARD has had fifteen years’ experience in Tuition, and Mr. CARLISLE was four years Senior Mathematical Lecturer in the establishment of the late Mr. Rippin, of Woolwich Common, after whose death, in the spring of 1883, he joined Mr. Pritchard. While with Mr. Rippin an average of nine Pupils passed from Mr. Carlisle into Sandhurst and Woolwich. During the last four and a half years candidates from Hill Lands (whose number now exceeds 40) have been successful 148 times at one or other of the Army Examinations. Highest Places gained in Lists — 3, 4, 5, 8, 9, 11, 14, 15, 18, 21, 29, 31, 32, 34, 35, 37, 38, 39, 52, 60, 63, 64, etc., some of the foregoing twice, and even thrice over, and among the successes for 1883 are the very highest of all ever yet gained. Eight out of nine Candidates for the most recent Sandhurst Preliminary Examinations passed. All four Woolwich Candidates November and December, 1883, qualified. Lists of the successful at this and the corresponding competition for Sandhurst not published at time of preparing this for pres? . Mr. PRITCHARD S success enabled- him to purchase the grounds of Hill Lands (10 acres) in 1881 where he has built already three spacious houses, and a fourth is in course of erection, carefully designed to meet the requirements of his work. The site is on the incline of a hill, and is most bracing. In the arrangements, the Pupils’ wants during leisure hours have not been forgotten. There is a large Cricket and Football Ground, besides Lawn Tennis, etc. Work is continued through every Vacation to the extent needful. Militia Officers seeking Direct Commissions in Her Majesty’s Service. A distinct department has been established in a separate building at Hill Lands for the reception of Militia Officers desirous of competing at the half-yearly Examinations held in the months of March and September in the Four Military Subjects only, viz. : MILITARY LAW, MILITARY TACTICS, MILITARY TOPOGRAPHY, FORTIFICATION, as well as for Commissioned Officers preparing for the Staff College. Mr. PRITCHARD has placed the General Superintendence of the Instruction of Officers of this department in charge of Lieut. -Colon el P. C. Story, late of the 40th Regiment and 26th Regiment Cameronians. Colonel Story and another resident officer, of subordinate rank, as his assistant, devote their whole time to the officers undergoing the requisite course of instruction at Hill Lands. Colonel Story is a Graduate of the Staff College, and has had eight years’ experience as Garrison Instruc- tor, during which period an average of nine out of every ten Officers instructed by him passed their Examination. He has also served on the Staff of both Adjutant and Quartermaster-General. The officer assisting him has had considerable experience in Instruction. Candidates from Hill Lands have been successful at all the Military Competitive Examinations hitherto held. Usually thirty Commissions are offered at each Examination to 270 Candidates, so that only one in nine can succeed. In the Examinations held in 1882, and March, 1883, one officer out of every four sent from Hill Lands obtained his Commission. Twenty Militia Officers have gained direct Commissions from Wargrave since the formation of the department. The highest place gained on these lists has been won September, 1883, viz., 2nd ; among the other high places are 3rd, 9th, 18th, 20th, etc. For Terms, References, etc., apply to the Rev. A. R.

The origin of this University cannot now be discovered. By some, Alfred the Great is said to have been its founder, but the statement is not sup- ported by history. What we do know, however, is that Oxford dates from before the time of Edward the Confessor, and that its first charter was granted by Henry III. It has twenty Colleges and five Halls, each College being a corporate body, administering its own affairs, but the property of the Halls is held in trust by the University, which carries on its business by means of two sets of members,, the House of Congregation and the House of Convocation ; the former of which receives from the Hebdomadal Council, consisting of the heads of Colleges, etc., statutes framed for the government of the University, and transmits them, if approved, to the latter for enactment. . Convocation elects the two members of Parliament who sit for Oxford University. Candidates for Degrees have to be in residence twelve Terms at least before they can proceed to the Examination for B.A. The cost of a career at Oxford depends to a great extent upon the habits of the Student. The University Commissioners estimated it recently at about 600 Z., but it has since been shown that, with economy, half that sum may be made to suffice. 400 Z. would be ample for one of moderate means and wants. It has been calculated that the cost of tuition, rent, and food in the College erected as a memorial to Keble is about 51 L per annum, or 15-3Z. for the whole course. This of course does not include the expenses of a Student during the vacations. The following brief sum- mary of the method of proceeding for a Degree in Arts (as the one most commonly taken) may be found useful : more detailed information, as given in the Examination Statutes of the University, will be found further on. 1. The first step of a Student upon joining the University is to Matriculate at some College or Hall, and there is a preliminary (College) examination, the subjects being elementary classics and mathematics, varying slightly at the different Colleges. In some Colleges ( e.g . Balliol) this examination is sometimes found difficult. The amount of caution money also varies. Testimonials of character and fitness are required. The Term in which a Student Matriculates counts (with or without residence) as one of the twelve Terms required for the Degree of Bachelor. At Matriculation, 6 OUR UNIVERSITIES. after writing his name in the Register in the presence of the Vice-Chan- cellor, the Student will then receive for future guidance an academical blue-book containing the University statutes, and he is then (but not before this) a member of the University, with the title of Undergraduate. After this he will be required to pass Responsions, and he will continue to be in statu pupillari until admitted to the full benefits of Graduate life. 2. Responsions are usually passed soon after Matriculation. The sub- jects are — Arithmetic, Euclid or Algebra, Latin, Greek, and in Latin prose composition. 3. First Public Examination (commonly called “ Moderations ”). For Pass as early as the fourth Term from Matriculation ; for Honours from fifth to eighth Term. Subjects : Latin and Greek (including portions at sight), Logic, or Euclid and Algebra. The Honour subjects are similar, but more extensive, except that Logic is compulsory instead of alternative. 4. Second Public Examination. For Pass, “ as soon as they have satisfied the Moderators ” Candidates may present themselves ; for Honours only from their twelfth to sixteenth Term. If a candidate has taken Honours in one School by the sixteenth Term, he may present himself for Honours in other Schools up to the twentieth Term. Pass subjects (under certain limitations) are to be taken from the following : — Greek or Greek and Latin Philosophical and Historical Authors, Greek and Roman History, English Composition, Modern History, a Modern Language, Political Economy, Law, Geometry, Mechanics, Chemistry, Physics. The Honour subjects scarcely admit of brief enumeration, but will be found in fuller detail further on. They are ranged under the heads of (1) Classics, (2) Mathematics, (3) Natural Science, (4) Jurisprudence, (5) Modern History, (6) Theology. In granting Students their first Degree— that is, when the final examination is passed and they are permitted to don their Bachelor gown — the Vice-Chancellor does not recognise them as having fully attained to the honour of being his confreres, and therefore they do not return into the Congregation House in their new robes, as the M. A.’s do, to salute him, and receive his salutation in return, as being now of equal rank with himself. And as for the Degree of Master of Arts, no further examination is required, but merely the payment of certain fees amounting to about 12 1. The greater distinction is accessible to all. Other Degrees are granted in Music, Civil Law, Medicine, and Divinity, particulars of which are given in this article. UNIVERSITY OFFICERS.

The College or Institution must be incorporated by Royal Charter or otherwise established on a permanent and efficient footing. The effect of this statute reduces the period of Academical residence from 3 years to 2 years.

Doctors of everv b acuity and all Masters of Arts are necessario Regentes for two years from the end of the Term in which they are admitted to their respective Degrees • and the following, if members of Convocation, are Regentes ad placitum: Professors ; Doctors of every Faculty resident in the University • Heads of Colleges and Halls, or in their absence their deputies ; Masters of the Schools ; Censors, and Deans of Colleges. The business of this House is confined almost exclusively to ratifving the nomination of Examiners by the Vice-Chancellor and Proctors, and to the granting of ordinary Degrees. House of Convocation. This consists of both Regents and Non- Regents. In this House is transacted all the formal business of the OXFORD. 15 University as a Corporate body, except what is above named as belonging to the House of Congregation. No Statute is binding until it has received the assent of Convocation. Matters of special and individual concern, anything which requires immediate provision, payments of money from the University Chest, are settled by Decree of Convocation. The House of Convocation confers Honorary Degrees and others granted out of the usual course by Diploma or by Decree. It also decides whether the Seal of the University shall be affixed to any document for whose validity the Seal is requisite. In Convocation nearly all Elections to offices in the gift of the University take place. In both the House of Congregation and the House of Convocation the Chancellor or the Vice-Chancellor or his Deputy singly, and the two Proctors together, have the right of veto in all matters except elections ; otherwise every question is decided by the majority of votes. The Congregation of the University of Oxford consists of certain official persons of all those members of Convocation who resided within one mile and a half of Carfax during the year. The Chancellor or the Vice-Chancellor or one of his Deputies, and the two Proctors or their respective Deputies, preside. No quorum is specified in order to constitute a meeting. The business of this body is almost entirely confined to legislation. When the Hebdomadal Council has framed any new Statute, it must first be promulgated , after due notice, in this assembly, and the question that the principle of the Statute as stated in the Preamble be approved must be then submitted to Congregation. No right of negative is allowed to the Vice-Chancellors or the Proctors in this assembly, but every question is decided by the majority of votes. A Statute approved by Congregation is to be submitted to Convocation after an interval of seven entire days for final adoption or rejection. The Hebdomadal Council consists of certain official and of certain elected members. The official members are the Chancellor, the Vice-Chancellor, the late Vice-Chancellor for one year after he has ceased to hold office or until the next triennial election, and the two Proctors. The elected members are six Heads of Colleges or Halls, six Professors, and six members of Convocation. These are elected by the Congregation of the University of Oxford for six years. This Council meets every Monday at 1.30 p.m. in Term time, and whenever convoked by the Vice-Chancellor, and has the initiative in all the legislation of the Uni- versity. UNIVERSITY TERMS. There are four Terms for academical exercises in each year, but for many Professors’ Lectures and some other purposes Easter and Trinity Terms together count as only one. No provision respecting the standing of Candidates shall be so construed as to debar anyone from offering himself for any Examination held in either Easter or Trinity Term, who might have offered himself had the Examina- tion fallen in the other of those two Terms. 1 6 OUR UNIVERSITIES. 1. Michaelmas Term begins on the 10th of October, and ends on the 17th of December. 2. Hilary (or Lent) Term begins on the 24th of January, and ends on the day before Palm -Sunday. 3. Easter Term begins on the Wednesday after Easter Day, and ends on the Friday before Whitsun Day. 4. Trinity (or Act) Term begins on the day before Whitsun Day, and usually ends on the Saturday after the first Tuesday in July, but may be continued beyond that day by Congregation. If the day fixed for the beginning or end of any Term happen to be a festival, the beginning or end of such Term is deferred till the day after, except only that Easter Term in such case ends the day before. Full Term begins on the Sunday after the first Congregation, that is, on the Sunday after the first day of Term. Michaelmas and Hilary Terms are kept by six weeks’ residence in each, Easter and Trinity Terms either by three weeks’ in each, or by forty-eight days’ residence in the two Terms jointly. UNIVERSITY FEES AND DUES. The fees to be paid by Students to the University on various occasions are as follows : — 1. At Matriculation, £ s. d.

Responsions (no one need pass Responsions who lia OXFORD. 19 passed the Previous Examination at Cambridge or has satisfied the Ex- aminers appointed by the Delegates for the Examination of Schools in Greek, in Latin, and in Elementary Mathematics) before the Masters of the Schools, II. the First Public Examination before the Moderators, III. the Second Public Examination before the Public Examiners. I. Responsions : There are six Masters of the Schools, nominated yearly in Convocation. They must be Masters of Arts or Bachelors of Civil Law or of Medicine at the least. No one who has held the office for two years together can be nominated again till after a year’s interval, and no Master of the Schools can be either a Moderator or a Public Examiner at the same time. Responsions are held three times every year. Every Candidate must be examined in Latin and Greek Grammar, Latin Prose Composition, one Latin and one Greek author, Arithmetic, and the elements of either Geo- metry or Algebra. The Examination is conducted partly in writing, partly viva voce. In the written part of the Examination, questions are given in Grammar, in Arith- metic, and in Euclid’s Elements, Books I. and II., or Algebra ; a passage is set for translation from English prose into Latin ; and each Candidate has to construe and answer questions from the books which he offers. Every Candidate who passes to the satisfaction of his Examiners receives from them a certificate to that effect, commonly called a Testamur. After the Examination is ended a list is printed of all those who have satisfied the Masters of the Schools. II. First Public Examination : There are thirteen Moderators, viz. in the Classical Schools ten [four to examine Candidates for Honours, and six to examine those who do not seek Honours], in the Mathematical School three. These are nominated by the Vice-Chancellor and the two Proctors severally in succession, subject to the approval of Congregation and of Convocation. If members of the Univer- sity, they must be at least M.A. or B.C.L. or B.M. ; or they may be persons not members of the University. In the Pass School Candidates are admitted as early as their fourth Term ; in the Honour Schools only from their fifth Term to their eighth inclusively.

St. Mary Hall, New Inn Hall, and St. Edmund Hall are ultimately destined to absorption by Oriel, Balliol, and Queen’s Colleges respectively. Their disappearance will efface a very peculiar relic of old Oxford institutions. A new “ private hall ” has been opened by Mr. Turrell, which numbers on its books eight undergraduates. S. Edmund Hall, supposed to be named after S. Edmund, Archbishop of Canterbury, temp. Henry III. There is one Advowson, held by the University in trust for the Hall, and forming the endowment of the Prin- cipal. 30 resident members in 1882. Principal : The Rev. E. Moore, D.D., appointed in 1864.

PRIVATE HALLS. A statute passed in 1882 (in substitution for an earlier one dating from 1855) enacts that any Member of Convocation above the age of twenty-eight may, under certain conditions, obtain from the Vice-Chancellor, with the consent of the Hebdomadal Council, a licence to open a suitable building as a Private Hall for the reception of academical Students, with the title of “ Licensed Master,” and make provision for the proper government of the Students under his charge. They are subject to all other statutes of the University, and they partake in its privileges, and are admissible to its degrees, in the same way as other Students. Turrell’s Hall. — Licensed Master, Rev. Henry Joseph Turrell, M.A. Charsley’s Hall is the only instance of such an institution being open for the reception of Students under the Oxford University Act of 1854. It has 6 resident members. Licensed Master : William H. Charsley, M.A. OXFORD. 33 STUDENTS NOT ATTACHED TO ANY HALL OR COLLEGE. In the year 1868 the restrictions of an ancient Statute, which has been already mentioned, were removed ; and persons are now -permitted, under certain conditions prescribed in Statt. Tit. III. Sect. I., to become Students and Members of the University without being attached to any College or Hall. Such persons keep their statutable residence in houses or lodgings in the town, with the same rights of profiting by Professors’ lectures, of com- peting for University Prizes, of attaining distinction in the Public Exam- inations, and of being admitted to Degrees and to all the consequent privileges, as are enjoyed by other Students. In 1882 there were 206 un- attached students. The reception of Students into the University under the prescribed con- ditions, and the general direction and superintendence of them during their residence in Oxford, are committed to a Board consisting of the Vice- Chancellor and four Members of Convocation nominated by the Vice- Chancellor and Proctors, two of whom are styled Censors, under the title of “Delegates of Students not attached to any College or Hall.” The Students are under the supervision of the Censors, who are charged with the care of their conduct and studies. The Worshipful the Master and Assistants of the Company of Cloth workers in the city of London having granted to the Delegacy to Unat- tached Students three exhibitions of 50£. a year, tenable each for three years from the date of election, and intended as an encouragement of the study of natural science, the delegates have made arrangements by which one of these exhibitions shall be offered yearly for competition among those who may offer themselves in natural science at the examination held in July, under the authority of the Oxford and Cambridge Schools Examina- tion Board. A similar exhibition of 50 1. a year will be offered at the same time by the Company, to be held by a non -collegiate Student at Cambridge. The subjects for examination in 1878 may be found in the “ Regulations of the Oxford and ' Cambridge Schools Examination Board. Candidates for the exhibition may be, but are not required to be, candidates for the certificates granted by the Oxford and Cambridge Schools Examination Board ; and may either be unattached students of one term’s standing (the Easter and Act terms counting for this purpose as one term), or persons not yet members of the University. All who desire to be candidates for the exhibitions, without being also candidates fore ertificates, must send either to the Rev. W. W. Jackson, Exeter College, Oxford, or to Mr. E. J. Gross, Caius College, Cambridge, notice of their names and ages, with certificates of character. Censors — Rev. G. W. Kitchen, M.A., and Rev. G. S. Ward, M.A. INSTITUTIONS. Bodleian Library .

The Teacher of Drawing, with the stipend of £150 a-year, is Mr. Alex. Macdonald. University Museum. This building, intended for the promotion of the study of Natural OXFORD. 35 Science, was erected at the charge of the University. The first stone was laid June 20th, 1855, by the Earl of Derby, Chancellor of the University. The Museum contains Lecture-rooms, with Work-rooms and Laboratories where these are required, for the Regius Professor of Medicine, and the Professors of Geometry, Astronomy, Natural Philosophy, Chemistry, Mineralogy, Geology, Physiology, and Zoology, a Dissecting-room at the North-eastern angle, a large Laboratory for Students in Chemistry at the South-western, and along the front upstairs a spacious Library and Reading-room. University Observatory. Warren de La Rue, D.C.L. and M.A. of New College, presented a large Reflecting Telescope with other astronomical apparatus to this Observatory, which is under the charge of the Savilian Professor of Astronomy. Of Affiliated Colleges. By a statute of the University, passed in 1880, any College or Institution within the United Kingdom, or in any part of the British Dominions, being a place of education in which the majority of the students are of the age of 17 at least, may, on certain conditions, be admitted to the privileges of an Affiliated College. The conditions are in effect as follows : — The College or Institution must be incorporated by Royal Charter, or otherwise established on a permanent and efficient footing ; it must allow the Univer- sity to be represented on the Governing Board, and to take part in its examinations ; it must have been admitted to the privileges of an Affiliated College by a vote of Convocation, and the connection between it and the University must be terminable at the will of either body. Any person who has completed a course of three years at such a College, and obtained honours at its second or final examination, may, without being previously matriculated, be admitted to the first Public Examination in this University, and if he passes that examination, and is matriculated in the next following Term, he is absolved from responsions, and may, as regards all provisions affecting academical standing, reckon the Term in which he was matriculated as the fifth Term from his matriculation. If further he obtains honours at the first or second Public Examination, he may be admitted B.A. after eight Terms of academical residence, pro- vided he has then passed his final examination. The effect of this statute is to reduce the period of necessary academical residence for a person coming from an Affiliated College from three to two years. The Institutions at present admitted to these privileges are, June 1st, 1880, St. David’s College, Lampeter ; June 16th, 1882, University College, Nottingham. The Indian Institute at Oxford. The establishment of this Institute, which was opened by the Prince of Wales on May 2nd, 1883, was first proposed in 1875, by Professor Monier Williams, who in that and the following year undertook two journeys at his own expense to India, where he held meetings in favour of his project. Subsequently the scheme received the support of Her Majesty and the Royal Princes, and of many influential persons in this country. The list of sub- scribers is headed by the Queen, the Prince .of Wales ; the Duke of Edinburgh and the Duke of Albany are also contributors as well as Lord Salisbury, the Chancellor of the University, Lord Northbrook, Lord Lytton, Lord Hartington, Lord Cranbrook, and many others, both Englishmen and natives, 36 OUR UNIVERSITIES. who are connected with or interested in Indian affairs. The largest subscriber by far is Sir Thomas Brassey, who has contributed 8,750 1., and Mr. Edward Cazalet has given 1,100L The money subscribed, which at present amounts to 20,150Z., has been invested in the names of three trustees, Sir E. Colebrooke, M.P., Sir Thomas Brassey, and Professor Monier Williams. A central site has been secured, close to the Bodleian Library, for 7,800£. The building is in progress of erection from designs by Mr. Basil Champneys, and is to contain lecture rooms, library, reading room, an Indian museum, and all necessary appliances ; but the present contribu- tions, it is feared, will not be sufficient to complete more than half of it. The chief objects of the Institute are “ to give effective and trustworthy teaching in all subjects that relate to India and its inhabitants. ; to promote and encourage Indian researches ; to concentrate and disseminate correct ideas on Indian matters by united effort and combined action.” The Boden Professor of Sanscrit is to be ex-officio director of the Institute, and there will be a council or board of management. The founding of various fellow- ships, scholarships, and prizes is contemplated, and there will be an ample staff of University Professors and teachers connected with the Institute. Contributions and gifts of«books and objects for the museum should be sent to the Boden Professor of Sanscrit, Merton-Lea, Oxford. The University of Oxford Commission. — From a report issued by the Commissioners for the University of Oxford, appointed in 1878, to inquire into the state of the University of Oxford, it would seem that the extension and endowment of the Oxford Professorate, and the better organization of teaching throughout the University,* are among the principal objects to which the attention of the Commissioners has been called ; but their recom- mendations on these points are far from revolutionary, and they profess themselves content that the teaching of the place should be left, for the most part, as it has hitherto been, in the hands of the Colleges. For the more important Chairs, twenty-five in number — some of them already exist- ing, and others to be created, wholly or in part, as new foundations — the stipends are to be fixed at a maximum of 900Z. per annum, and a minimum of 7001. Greek, Latin, Comparative Philology, Moral Philosophy, Astronomy, and Chemistry are among the class first named as represented by the exist- ing staff of professors. The Chair of Ancient History is to be divided, and Ancient Greek and Ancient Latin History are to be taught separately. The Chichele Professorship of Modern History is to be reduced, and is also to become a Professorship of English History. Three entirely new Chairs are to be founded among the highest class — one of English Language and Literature, one of Pure Mathematics, and one of Mechanics and Engineer- ing. Three thousand pounds a year are set down as the least sum needed for keeping up the Bodleian Library. A sum of 1,200L has now been invested as the Rolleston Memorial Fund. The fund is to be expended in the institution of a prize to be awarded every two years, for original research in any subject comprised under the following heads : — Animal and vegetable morphology, physiology and p ithology, and anthropology, to be selected by the candidates themselves. The period during which this prize may be obtained by a candidate is to be limited to ten years after the date of matriculation ; and the prize bearing Professor RoJleston’s name is open to the members of the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge.

This University, which is supposed to have been founded in the seventh century, is a corporation comprising students in Arts and Sciences, deriving its present legal existence from a charter of Queen Elizabeth (13 Eliz. c. 9), under the denomination or name of “ The Chancellor , Masters , and Scholars of the University of Cambridge .” Its early charters were lost or destroyed during the rebellion of Wat Tyler ; but its first authentic charter, which was granted about fifty years after the foundation of .its oldest College — Peterhouse, now better known as St. Peter’s College — is said to be dated 45 Henry III., and is to be found among the records of the Tower. Its authority as a University is now derived from the Charter of Queen Eliza- beth, together with the “ New Statutes,” which were confirmed by Her Majesty in Council, July 31st, 1858. The University includes seventeen Colleges and Halls, or, to speak more correctly, sixteen Colleges and one Hall ; although, as a matter of fact, Colleges and Halls at Cambridge are synonymous and not different, as is the case at Oxford. These Colleges have all been founded since the beginning of the reign of Edward I., and they are maintained principally by the endowments of their several founders and benefactors. Each College is a separate corporate body, possessing its own statutes, governed by its own regulations, and entirely distinct from the University, although their several members, whether Graduates or Undergraduates, are also members of the University, and, as such, are subject to its paramount laws and regulations. In addition to becoming a member of the University by joining one of the Colleges, a new system, or mode, of doing so, has recently been established. A person who desires to become a Student of the Uni- versity, without becoming a member of any College, can now do. so by entering the University directly as an “ Unattached,” or “ Non-Collegiate,” Student. This method of passing through the ordinary academic curri- culum, and of subsequently obtaining a Degree, involves far less expense, and is resorted to by a large number of those whose means do not permit the luxury, and consequent increase in expense, resulting to those who enter at one of the Colleges. Non-Collegiate Students have exactly the same privileges as other Undergraduates, so far as the University is con- cerned, and proceed to Degrees in precisely the same manner. These Stu- 40 OUR UNIVERSITIES. dents are controlled and superintended by a permanent Syndicate, appointed by the Senate of the University, called the “ Board for the Regulation of Unattached Students ; ” its executive officer (whose position is analogous to that of a College Tutor), being designated the Censor. The governing body of the University is the Senate, which is composed of all persons who are Masters of Arts, or Law, or Doctors in one of the three faculties, viz., Divinity, Law, or Physic, having their names on the University Register. The Senate elect the more important officers of the University, including the Chancellor, the Lord High Steward, and the Representatives in Parliament. The appointment of many of its officials, however, as well as the transaction of the greater part of the University business, rests with a more select body, called the “ Electoral Roll.” This is a list of persons which is published annually, in the Michaelmas Term of each year, and is composed of all members of the Senate w T ho have resided within the jurisdiction of the University, i.e., within a mile and a-half of Great St. Mary’s Church, for fourteen weeks at least between the first day of that Michaelmas Term and the first day of the preceding Michaelmas Term, together with all officers of the University, being Members of the Senate, Heads of Houses, Professors, and Public Examiners. All matters which are submitted to the Senate take the form of resolutions called Graces , which possess generally the force of Statutes ; but before any Grace can be submitted to the Senate, it must have previously received the ‘‘sanction of the Council.” This “ Council of the Senate,” as it is called, consists of the Chancellor (who, however, seldom acts), the Vice-Chancellor (who is the presiding officer of the University in the absence of the Chan- cellor), four Heads of Houses, four Professors, and eight other members of the Senate chosen from the Electoral Roll ; the election of two Heads of Houses, two Professors, and four other members of the Senate taking place biennially.

Kempson, M.A. The Principal Officers of the University and their respective duties are the following : — The Chancellor, who is the head of the whole University, and presides over all cases relating to that body. In him is placed the sole executive authority within the precincts, except in matters of mayhem and felony. The High Steward, who has special power to take the trial of scholars impeached of felony within the limits of the University, and to hold and keep a leet according to the established charter and custom. He appoints Deputy. The Vice-Chancellor, who is elected annually on the 4th of November, by the Senate. His office, in the absence of the Chancellor, embraces the execution of the Chancellor’s powers, and the government of the U niversity according to her Statutes. He must, by Statute 19 and 20 Viet. c. 88, be the Head of some College ; and during his continuance in office he acts as a magistrate for the University, the Town, and the County. The Commissary, who is an officer, under the Chancellor, and appointed CAMBRIDGE. 43 by him. He holds a court of record for all privileged persons and scholars under the Degree of M. A. The Sex Viri, elected by Grace of the Senate, to hold office for two years ; whose business it is to hear and adjudicate, together with the Vice-Chancellor, all accusations against members of the University who are not in statu 'pu'pillari, for offences against the Statutes or Ordinances of the University. They have the power of punishing offenders, by deprivation or suspension of degrees ; but there is liberty of appeal to the Senate from their decision. The Public Orator, who is the voice of the Senate upon all public occa- sions. He writes, reads, and records the letters to and from the body of the Senate, and presents to all honorary degrees with an appropriate speech. The Librarian, to whom the regulation and management of the University Library is confided. The Registrary, who is obliged, either by himself, or deputy properly authorized, to attend all Congregations, to receive Graces when passed, and to register them in the University records. The Assessor, who is an officer specially appointed, by Grace of the Senate, to assist the Vice-Chancellor in his court, in eausis forensibus et domesticis. Two Proctors, who are peace-officers, elected annually. It is their especial duty to attend to the discipline and behaviour of all persons in statu pupillari, and to search houses of ill fame. Another part of their duty is to be present at all Congregations of the Senate, to read the Graces, to take the assent or dissent, and to pronounce the same. They must be Masters of Arts or Law of three years’ standing at the least, or Bachelors of Divinity. They must also have resided during the major part of each of three Terms during the two preceding years. Two Moderators, nominated by the Colleges which present the Proctors, and appointed by Graces of the Senate. They conduct the examinations of the Candidates for Honours in the Mathematical Tripos. Four Pro-Proctors, who assist the Proctors in that part of their duty which relates to the discipline and behaviour of those persons who are in statu pupillari, and the preservation of public morals ; but in other parts of the Proctors’ office they have not any concern, or control. Two Esquire Bedells, whose office is to attend the Vice-Chancellor, whom they precede with their silver maces upon all public occasions and solemnities ; to receive from the Vice-Chancellor the Graces delivered to them, and to deliver them to the Proctors, and to summon to the Chan- cellor’s Court all members of the Senate. Two Members, whom the University sends to Parliament. These are elected by the collective body of the Senate. The University Counsel, who are appointed by Grace of the Senate, and are consulted upon various occasions. The Solicitor, who is appointed by the Vice-Chancellor. The Professors, who are elected in different ways, and who are paid from various sources. The respective Orders in the several Colleges are as follows : — 1. A Head of a College or House, who is generally a Doctor in his Faculty. The Head of King’s is styled Provost ; of Queen’s, President. Every other Head is called Master. 2. Fellows, who generally are Doctors in Divinity, Law, or Physic ; Bachelors in Divinity; Masters or Bachelors of Arts; and some few Bachelors in Law or Physic, as at Trinity Hall, and Caius College. The number of Fellowships in the University is nearly 400. 44 OUR UNIVERSITIES. 3. Noblemen Graduates, Doctors in the several Faculties, Bachelors in Divinity, Masters of Arts, and Masters of Law, who are not on the Foundation. 4. Bachelors of Arts, Law and Physic. 5. Fellow-Commoners, who are generally the younger sons of the nobility, or young men of fortune, and have the privilege of dining at the Fellows’ table, whence the appellation originated. Of this class there are now very few indeed. 6. Scholars, who are generally Foundation members of their respective* Colleges, and who enjoy various advantages ; in some cases they have their commons free, their chambers rent-free, and various weekly or other allowances : in other cases they have specific stipends only, in conformity with the conditions of their foundation. They are for the most part elected, by direct examination or otherwise, at different periods either prior or subsequent to the commencement of their residence at the Uni- versity, from the most promising and distinguished Students. 7. Pensioners, who form the great body of the Students, who pay for their commons, chambers, &c., and enjoy generally no pecuniary advan- tages from their respective Colleges. 8. Sizars, who are generally Students of limited means. They usually have their commons free, and receive various emoluments. METHOD OF OBTAINING A DEGREE. The Degree of Bachelor of Arts is either an “ Honour ” Degree or an “Ordinary ” Degree, either of which can be obtained in many wajs. In order to obtain a Degree three things are necessary : 1. To obtain admission as an Undergraduate at one of the Colleges, or to become an Unattached Student ; application being made in the first instance to the Tutor of the College which the applicant desires to join, or, in the latter case, to the L T niversity Censor. — 2. To keep Terms, i.e., to reside at Cambridge, in College rooms; or in lodgings licensed by the University, for a period of about three years. — 3. To pass certain Examinations. Anyone wishing to enter as an Undergraduate at one of the Colleges, or to become an Unattached Student, should, in the one instance, make appli- cation to the Tutor of the particular College which he desires to join, and, in the other, to the Censor of Non- Collegiate Students. At some of the Colleges a Preliminary Examination of an easy nature is held, but in every case the applicant will have to obtain, before entrance, a certificate signed by an M.A. of Oxford or Cambridge, showing that the person giving the certificate has examined the applicant, and that, as a result of such ex- amination, he considers him to be a fit and proper person, both on account of his learning and moral character, to become a member of the University, and of the College which he proposes to enter. At some Colleges it has been usual to require a certificate of baptism as well ; but since the passing of the Universities Tests Act, 1871, it is to be presumed that this is not now required in any case. Having satisfied the College Tutor as to his eligibility to become a member of the Society, the Student has then to pay his Caution Money and certain Fees, which are given on another page, and a few weeks afterwards he is enrolled as a member of the University, at a formal ceremony called “Matriculation.” This consists chiefly in the payment of a Fee, which, in the case of ordinary Students, called Pensioners, is 5 1. The Student must now keep Terms and pass Examinations. In each CAMBRIDGE. 45 academical ye^r, which extends from October to June, there are three Terms (at Oxford there are four). The first, or Michaelmas Term, begins on the 1st of October and ends on the 16th of December. The second, or Lent Term, begins on the 13th of January and ends on the Friday before Palm Sunday. The third, or Easter Term, begins on the Friday after Easter Day, and ends on the Friday after ** Commencement Day,” which is the last Tuesday in June. The period of residence required is nine Terms, and “keeping Term” is residence during two-thirds of the period known as the Term. Having been duly enrolled as a member of the University in statu pupil- lari , the Student must next decide whether he will become a Candidate for the ordinary Degree, or “go out in Honours.” If he chooses to be content with the ordinary Degree he will have to pass three Examinations : 1. The Previous Examination ; 2. The General Examination ; 3. One of the Special Examinations. Should the Student desire to obtain his Degree with Honours, he has to pass two Examinations only ; viz., the Previous Examination, including additional subjects, which are not set to those who are candidates for the ordinary Degree, and lastly, one of the Triposes. Each of these numerous Examinations will now be treated of. The Previous Examination. The first Examination is one which all Students must pass before they can be admitted to the subsequent Examinations, by means of which they ultimately obtain their Degree. This is the Previous Examination , more familiarly known as the “Little Go” which consists of two parts. The first part embraces four subjects ; viz.: — 1. One of the Four Gospels in the original Greek. 2. One of the Latin Classics. 3. One of the Greek Classics. 4. A paper of questions on Latin and Greek Grammar, with especial reference to the set Latin and Greek subjects. . The second part of the Examination also embraces four subjects ; viz. : — 1. Paley’s Evidences of Christianity. 2. Euclid, Books I., II., III., Definitions 1-10 Book V., and Props. 1-19 and A of Book VI. 3. Arithmetic. 4. Elementary Algebra ; viz., definitions and explanations of algebraical terms and signs ; addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of algebraical quantities and algebraical fractions ; the elementary rules of ratio, proportion, and variation ; and easy equations of a degree not higher than the second, involving not more than two unknown quantities. Both parts of this Examination must be passed (but not necessarily at the same time) by all Students who intend to take a Degree ; but for Students who intend to be Candidates for Honours in any Tripos there is a further Examination commonly known as the “ Additional, ” the subjects of which are : 1. Algebra ; viz., the proofs of the rules of Arithmetical and Geometrical Progression, with simple examples ; easy problems in Elementary Algebra ; and the nature and use of logarithms. 2. The Elementary parts of Trigonometry ; viz., modes of measuring angles, trigonometrical ratios, functions of two angles, and the s^+ion of triangles. 46 OUR UNIVERSITIES. 3. Elementary Mechanics ; viz., the composition and resolution of forces acting in one plane at a point, the mechanical powers, and the properties of the centre of gravity. The Previous Examination, together with that in the additional subjects, is held twice in each academical year, in the Michaelmas and Easter Terms ; and it is open to all matriculated Students in their first or any later Term of residence. Matriculated Students are not obliged to pass in both Parts of the Previous Examination at the same time, but may offer themselves for examination either in both Parts or in one Part only. ‘ The selected Gospel and the Classical subjects given in the first part are announced, at least, twelve months before the Examination takes place at which they will be set. The General Examination. Students who intend to take the ordinary Degree, having “got through ” both parts of the “Little Go,” will next have to pass what is known as the “ General Examination for the ordinary Degree .” This they can do at any time after having kept four Terms, the Examination being held twice a year, viz., in the Michaelmas and Easter Terms. The subjects of the General Examination are : 1. The Acts of the Apostles in the original Greek. 2. One of the Latin Classics. 3. One of the Greek Classics. 4. Algebra ; viz. , easy equations of a degree not higher than the second, involving not more than two unknown quantities ; the proofs of the rules of Arithmetical and Geometrical Progression, with simple examples ; and easy problems in Elementary Algebra. 5. Elementary Statics, treated so as not necessarily to require a know- ledge of Trigonometry, namely, the composition and resolution of forces acting in one plane at a point, the mechanical powers, and the properties of the centre of gravity. 6. Elementary Hydrostatics, namely, the pressure of non-elastic fluids, specific gravities, the properties of elastic fluids, and the principal instruments and machines whose action depends on the properties of fluids : and Heat, as defined in Regulation 9. Two Additional Papers are given, one containing one or more passages of English for translation into Latin Prose ; and the other containing one or more subjects for an English Essay, and one or more passages from Shake- speare or Milton, to be punctuated and paraphrased. Students are not required to present themselves for either of these Papers, but the results of both are taken into account in assigning the places in the Class-List. The appointment of the Greek and Latin Classics, which are to be the subjects of Examination in any year, shall rest with the Board of Classical Studies. Public notice of the Classics is given a year, at least, before the Examination takes place. The names of Students who pass the Examination appear in four classes, the names in each class being arranged alphabetically. The Special Examinations. Presuming that the Candidate for an ordinary Degree has satisfactorily passed the two Examinations already mentioned, he will next have to present himself for one of the “ Special Examinations for the ordinary CAMBRIDGE. 47 Degree .” This he can do at any time after he has kept eight Terms, and entered on his ninth Term. These Special Examinations, only one of which can be taken up, are as follows : — Special Examination in Theology . This Examination includes the following subjects : — 1. Selected Books of the Old Testament in the English Version. 2. One of the Four Gospels in the original Greek. 3. One or more of the Epistles of the New Testament in the original Greek. 4. (a) The Outlines of English Church History down to 1830. (b) A selected subject or period of English Church History. A paper is also set in a selected portion of the Old Testament in Hebrew, for which Students are not required to present themselves, but the result of which is taken into account in assigning them places in the Class -List. Marks of distinction are also affixed to the names of those who acquit themselves with credit. Special Examination in Moral Science. This Examination comprises the following branches of knowledge, in • each of which branches three papers are set, viz. : — MORAL PHILOSOPHY. Stewart’s Active and Moral Powers, Bk. 2. Butler’s Three Sermons on Human Nature (Whewell’s Edition). Calderwood’s Handbook of Moral Philosophy, Parts 1 and 2. Whewell’s Lectures on the History of Moral Philosophy, 1-12.

Mill’s Political Economy, Books 1, 2, 3. Cairns’ Character and Method of Political Economy. Students presenting themselves for* this Examination are required t$ select one of these branches of study, and to show a competent knowledge in the branch selected ; but no Student is examined in more than one branch. Special Examination in Law and Modern History. The subjects for this Examination are the following : — LAW. Justinian’s Institutes in the original Latin ; Lord Mackenzie on Roman Law (or the elements of Hindu and Mohammedan Law ; any recent edition of Blackstone’s' Commentaries on the Laws of England, except the parts relating to Procedure, viz., chapters 6 to 18 inclusive of Bk. 3. HISTORY. Outlines of English History, from the Norman Conquest to the Accession of George IV. Hallam’s Constitutional History. A Period of European History to be selected by the Board of Historical Studies, of which notice shall be given in the preceding Michaelmas Term. Studeuts are only allowed to take up one of the foregoing branches of knowledge, either Law or History. Special .Examination in Natural Science. This Examination comprises the following branches of Natural Science, 48 OUR UNIVERSITIES. viz.: 1. Chemistry; 2. Geology; 3. Botany; 4. Zoology, including Ana- tomy and Physiology.

The Senate of Cambridge University has decided to admit female students, resident at either Girton or Newnham College, to the Tripos Examinations. 54 OUR UNIVERSITIES. The Mathematical Tripos. This Examination takes place annually. The Mathematical Tripos hitherto consisted of two sets of examinations, but after January 1882 it will be divided into three parts, and the changes will be in operation on all this year’s freshmen. The first part of the Examination, now held during the first week in January, will take place, under the new regulations, in the last week in May, and the second part will commence on the Monday following the second Sunday in June. Eight days after the first Examination, the examiners will declare which competitors have acquitted themselves so as to deserve mathematical honours. The principal regulations of the Examination being as follows : — Questions and Problems are proposed to the Candidates on nine days, the first three days being assigned to the more elementary parts of Mathematics and Natural Philosophy, the fourth day to the easier parts of the higher subjects, and the last five days to the higher parts of Mathematics and Natural Philosophy. After the first four days there is an interval of ten days ; and on the ninth of those days the Moderators and Examiners who have been engaged in the Examination of the first three days, taking account of that part of the Examination only, declare what persons have so acquitted themselves as to deserve Mathematical Honours. They are also empowered to declare what persons have so acquitted themselves as to deserve an ordinary Degree only, or to be excused from the General Examination. Those who are declared to have so acquitted themselves as to deserve Mathematical Honours, and no others, are admitted to the rest of the Examination in the higher subjects, which includes Heat, Electricity, and Magnetism (both the elementary and the more advanced parts), in addition to those at present recognized in the Examination for the Mathematical Tripos ; and after that Examination, the Moderators and Examiners, taking into account the Examination of all the nine days, arrange in order of merit all the Candidates who have been declared to deserve Mathematical Honours into three classes of Wranglers, Senior Optimes, and Junior Op- times, and these classes are published in the Senate-house at nine o’clock on the Friday morning preceding the general B. A. admission. An Undergraduate or Bachelor designate in Arts may be a Candidate for Honours in the Mathematical Tripos of any year, if at the end of the Exam- ination for such Tripos he shall have entered upon his ninth Term at least, having previously kept eight Terms; provided that not more than ten Terms shall have passed after the first of the said eight Terms ; and, ex- cepting Candidates for Degrees jure natalium, no Student of a different standing shall be allowed to be a Candidate, unless he shall have obtained permission from the Council of the Senate. A Student who has been admitted to the Degree of B.A. jure natalium , or is a Candidate for such Degree, may be a Candidate for Honours in the Mathematical Tripos of any year, if at the end of the Examination for such Tripos he shall have entered upon his seventh Term at least, having pre- viously kept six Terms ; provided that not more than eight Terms shall have passed after the first of the said six Terms. Any Student who may be admitted to the Examination in his seventh or ninth Term is required to keep that Term, and no certificate of approval shall continue in force, unless it shall appear, when he applies for admis- CAMBRIDGE. 55 sion to the Degree of Bachelor of Arts, that he has kept the said seventh or ninth Term.

The names of the Students who pass the Examination with credit are placed according to merit in three classes ; the places being determined by estimating the aggregate merits of each Student in all the subjects of Examination, and marks of distinction being affixed to the names of those who have shown eminent proficiency in particular subjects, but no credit is given to a Student in any subject unless it appear that he has shown a competent knowledge of that subject. Candidates who may not be entitled to Honours may be declared by the Examiners to be entitled to an ordinary Degree, or to be excused the General Examination. Natural Sciences Tripos. In this Tripos, which is now divided into two parts, there are a viva voce Examination and a practical Examination, in addition to twelve papers; the regulations as to residence being precisely similar to those for the Moral Sciences Tripos. The subjects of the Examination are as follows : — 1. Chemistry and certain other branches of Physics ; 2. Botany, including Vegetable Anatomy and Physiology ; 3. Geology, including Palaeontology and Petrology ; 4. Mineralogy ; 5. Zoology and Comparative Anatomy, Human Anatomy, and Physiology. The first part of the Examination is held annually in June, and occupies three days, the questions set being of an elementary character. The result of this part of the Examination is declared before the end of the Easter Term, and successful Candidates are divided into (1) those who are deserv- ing of Honours ; (2) those who are deserving of an ordinary Degree ; and (3) those who are only entitled to be excused the General Examination. Those who come under the first two heads can at once take their Degree, provided they have completed their ninth Term of residence. The second part of the Examination, to which only those who have been declared entitled to Honours are admitted, is held in the following December, and occupies five days or more. Six papers are set, the questions taking a wider range, and including a large number on the several subjects, some of which have special reference to the philosophy and history of these subjects. This Tripos is divided into three classes, the first class being again divided into two divisions, these classes and divisions being determined by the merits of the Students in the two parts of the Examination. The first class comprises those who have shown superior proficiency in some one, at least, of the subjects mentioned above, and the subject or subjects for which the Student is placed in the first class is signified, and marks of distinction are affixed to the names of Candidates who have shown eminent proficiency in particular subjects. The names in each division of the first class, and in the second and third classes, are arranged in alphabetical CAMBRIDGE. 6 I order, and not in order of merit, as is the case with the other principal Triposes. In the papers set in the first three days, (in June), the questions are of a comparatively elementary nature, with a view to test a knowledge of principles rather than of details. Specimens are also exhibited for descrip- tion and determination. The Board of Natural Science Studies is empowered to define the parts of the several subjects to be included in the first three days of the Exami- nation. At present these are as follows : In Physics the questions to be limited to the elementary and funda- mental parts of the subject, and, in particular, special attention to be paid to the definition of physical quantities, the general principles of measure- ment, the configuration and motion of a material system, the laws of motion, and the comparison of forces and of masses. In Sound, Light, Heat, Electricity, and Magnetism, only the fundamental laws, their simpler applications, and the experiments which illustrate them, to be required. In Chemistry the questions to relate to the leading principles and ex- perimental laws of Chemistry, the properties of the commoner elements and their principal inorganic compounds, the outlines of metallurgy, and simple qualitative and quantitative analysis. In Mineralogy the questions to be confined to Elementary Crystallo- graphy, the general properties of minerals and the special characters of those species only which are of common occurrence. In Geology the questions to be limited to Physical Geography, the inter- pretation of the structure of the crust of the earth and the history of its formation, so far as to involve only the elementary parts of Palaeontology and Lithology. In Botany the questions to relate to the elementary parts of Vegetable Morphology, Histology, and Physiology ; and to the principles of a natural system of classification. Candidates to be required to describe flowering plants in technical lan- guage. Questions not to be set in the first three days on Vegetable Palae- ontology, the Geographical Distribution of Plants, or details of classifi- cation. In Zoology with Comparative Anatomy minor details are not to be in- cluded in the questions relating to classification. Geographical distribution of animals is held to be a part of Zoology, and Comparative Anatomy includes the structure of extinct as well as of recent forms. Human Anatomy to include the mechanism of the human body, the comparison of its parts with those of lower animals, its development, &c. ; but the questions are to be of a simple and elementary character. In Physiology the questions to be of a comparatively elementary cha- racter. Theological Tripos. The regulations for this Tripos, which has only recently been established, are, as regards residence, similar to those for the other Triposes which have already been given, with the exception that a Student who has obtained Honours in any Tripos is permitted to become a Candidate for Honours in this Tripos, provided that not more than six complete Terms have passed since the Examination for the Tripos in which he first obtained Honours. 6 2 OUR UNIVERSITIES.

The Papers on Creeds and Confessions contain questions on their history, text, and subject-matter. The Paper on Liturgiology contains questions on the text and subject- matter of the principal ancient Liturgies, and on the history of Christian Worship, with special reference to the Book of Common Prayer. Public notice of all the variable subjects selected for the Examination in any year is given by the Board of Theological Studies before the beginning of the Michaelmas Term in the year next but two preceding the Exami- nation. CAMBRIDGE. 63 The names of those Students who pass the Examination with credit are placed in three classes, the names in each class being arranged in alphabet- ical order ; but no Student is classed who has not so acquitted himself in the first three days of the Examination as to deserve Honours, No credit is given to a Student in any of the last eight Papers unless it appear to the Examiners that he has shown a competent knowledge in that Paper. The Law Tripos. The regulations for this Tripos, as regards residence, and in other re- spects, are similar to those mentioned in the foregoing Triposes, with the exception that Students who pass with credit in Honours have the option of taking the Degree of LL.B. instead of that of B.A. should they desire to do so. The Examination takes place annually in December, the subjects being as Follows : — 1. General and Comparative Jurisprudence. 2. Passages for Translation, taken from the sources of Roman Law, par- ticularly from Gaius, Ulpian, Justinian, and some specified portion of the Digest. 3. Questions on Roman Law and its History. 4. The English Law of Personal Property. 5. The English Law of Real Property. 6. English Criminal Law. 7. The Legal and Constitutional History of England. 8. Public International Law. 9. Essays or Problems on the subjects of Examination. A list of Books on the foregoing subjects recommended are published eighteen months before the Examination, Historical Tripos. The regulations for this Examination are similar to those for the other Triposes. The subjects of the Examination are as follows : — 1. English History. 2 g* '.Special subjects, to be selected, generally speaking, from the periods ^ j termed Ancient, Mediaeval, and Modern respectively. (Either (3) or (4) to be always taken from English History. In sub- jects (2), (3), and (4) some knowledge of the chief original sources will be expected. 5. Principles of Political Philosophy and of General Jurisprudence. 6. Constitutional Law and Constitutional History. 7. Political Economy and Economic History. 8. Public International Law in connection with selected Treaties. 9. Subjects for Essays. The Board of Historical Studies gives notice, from time to time, of the variable subjects. The names of those Candidates who acquit themselves so as to deserve Honours are arranged, in three classes, in order of merit ; and, with regard to Candidates who are (1) only deserving of an ordinary Degree, or (2) of being excused the General Examination, the same rules apply as in the case of the other Triposes. 6 4 OUR UNIVERSITIES. The Semitic and Indian Languages Triposes. These Triposes have only been recently established, and no Examination has yet, in either case, been held. Degrees jure dignitatis aut natalium. By the University Statutes, cap. 3, sect. 5, Degrees may be conferred, with- out residence or examinations or exercises, on the following persons, viz. : — 1 . Privy Counsellors. 2. Bishops, or Bishops designate. 3. Noblemen : — Dukes, Marquises, Earls, Viscounts, Barons. 4. Sons of Noblemen, or their heirs apparent. 5. Deans of Cathedrals. 6. Heads of Colleges.

ADDITIONAL TEACHING POWER. Cambridge.. The Vice-Chancellor, in his Report just issued, published a statement by the University Commissioners, who recommend among other things that provision should be made from College grants for additional teaching power by the institution of new permanent or temporary professorships, the employment of lecturers and readers, the increase in the stipends of some of the existing professorships, and the provision of retiring pensions. “READING FOR HONOURS.” The Syndicate appointed to consider whether Students should be encouraged to read for Honours in more than one Tripos have issued a report, in which they state they are of opinion that it would be inexpedient to require from Candidates for Honours in any Tripos a higher standard of attainment in other subjects than is at present imposed upon 68 OUR UNIVERSITIES. them by the Previous Examination, but they consider it very desirable to give as much encouragement as possible to serious and effective work — such as is generally involved in reading for Honours — in more than one depart- ment of study. It appears to them that such reading is at present dis- couraged, partly by the absorbing nature of the preparation now required for either of the older Triposes (which still attract a majority of the Can- didates for Honours), and partly, again, by the times at which the different Examinations are held. The interval between the Mathematical and Classical Triposes is at present so short that it is obviously almost impossible for a Candidate to do himself justice in both Examinations, while even the longer period intervening between either of these and any of the newer Triposes is not really sufficient to enable a Student to go through a satisfactory course of preparation for a second severe Examina- tion in a large and diversified aggregate of subjects. Further, since the Examinations for these latter Triposes all take place in the Michaelmas Term or later, a Student who presents himself for any of them after taking Honours in Mathematics or Classics is forced to break into a fifth year of residence, whereby he is liable to incur an additional year’s delay before he can enter upon his professional career. The Syndicate think it possible to diminish the first discouragement very materially and to remove the two others altogether by (1) carrying somewhat further the plan of dividing the Tripos Examinations, which has been already introduced to some extent in the case of the Mathematical and Natural Sciences Triposes ; and (2) by placing all the Honour Examinations in May or June. They accordingly propose as follows : — 1. The Classical Tripos shall be divided into two parts according to a scheme to be prepared by the Board of Classical Studies and approved by the Senate. — 2. Both parts of the Classical Tripos Examina- tion and of the Natural Sciences Tripos Examination shall take place in the latter part of the Easter Term, and separate class lists shall be issued for each part of the Examination. The Examinations for the Moral Sciences, Law, and History Triposes shall take place at about the same time. — 3. Students may be Candidates for the first part of the Classical Tripos or Natural Sciences Tripos Examination at the end of their second, third, or, if they have already passed one of the Honours Examinations, fourth year. — 4. They may be Candidates for the second part of the Classical Tripos or Natural Sciences Tripos Examination at the end of their third or fourth year, provided they have already passed the first part of their Examination. — 5. They may be Candidates for the Moral Sciences, Law, or History Triposes at the end of their third, or, if they have already passed one of the Honours Examinations, fourth year. — 6. No Student who has presented himself for any of the above Examinations may present himself .on another occasion for the same Examination. — 7. Students who pass any of the above Examinations in their third or fourth year shall be entitled to the B.A. Degree, provided they have kept the requisite number of Terms. Students who pass the first part of the Classical or Natural Sciences Tripos Examination in their second year shall be excused the General Examination for the B.A. Degree. REPORT OF THE BOARD OF EXAMINATIONS. The annual report of the Board of Examinations has been issued. During the year, the Board had under its supervision the Previous Examination, the General Examination, and the Special Examinations for CAMBRIDGE. 69 the Ordinary B. A. Degree. It appears that at the Previous Examination, held in the Easter Term, there were 369 candidates in Part I., of whom 128 passed in the first class, 178 in the second class, while 63 failed. In Part II. there were 422 candidates, of whom 111 passed in the first class, 193 in the second class, and 118 failed. Of the 184 candidates in additional subjects, 37 failed. At the Examination in the Michaelmas Term, 327 candidates in their first term of residence were examined in Part I., and only 15 failed. In Part II. there were 353 candidates and 50 failures. In additional subjects 59 failed out of 364 candidates. Of the other candidates in the Michaelmas Term, 51 out of 122 failed in Part I., while 75 out of 130 failed in Part II., while in the additional subjects 59 presented themselves and 15 were rejected. At the General Examination, held in the Easter Term, there were 272 candidates, and no less than 117 were rejected. Of the successful candidates, 20 obtained a first class, 37 a second class, 49 a third class, and 49 a fourth class. In the Michaelmas Term there were 189 candidates, and 57 were rejected. Nine obtained a first class, 21 a second class, 42 a third class, and 60 a fourth class. The results of the various Special Examinations for the Ordinary B.A. Degree were as follows : — In Theology, 156 candidates were examined in the Easter and Michaelmas Terms, of whom 41 failed ; 9 were awarded a first class, 26 a second class, and 80 a third class. In Moral Philosophy there were no candidates either at the Easter or Michaelmas Terms examination. In Political Economy, out of 39 candidates, 11 were rejected, 5 obtained a first class, and 23 a second class. In Law, there were 54 candidates, 18 were rejected, 5 obtained a first class, and 31 a second class. In History, of 47 candidates, 26 were rejected, 3 obtained a first class, and 18 a second class. In Chemistry, 19 candidates offered themselves ; 7 obtained a first class, 8 a second class, 1 was awarded an aegrotat degree, and 3 were rejected. In Geology, there were two candidates ; both obtained a first class. In Botany, of 9 candidates, 4 were rejected, 1 obtained a first class, and 4 a second class. In Zoology, there were 2 candidates in the Easter Term, both of whom passed in the second class; in the Michaelmas Term 2 candidates presented themselves, and both were rejected. In Mechanism and Applied Science, there were 9 candidates ; 3 obtained a first class, 4 a second class, and 2 were rejected. The total results of the Special Examinations are as under : — There were 339 candi- dates, 35 obtained a first class, 116 a second class, 80 a third class, one cegrotat, and 107 failed. The Examiner in Modern History reports that it cannot be said that the results are in any way satisfactory. There was but slight evidence of honest hard work, and still less of any attempt to under- stand the facts or appreciate the results of history. There were, of course, exceptions. The two candidates who obtained a first class in June were considerably in advance of the best in the second class, and showed a real grasp of the subject ; while the single first class man in the later examina- tion gave evidence of powers that would have deserved a very high place in the Historical Tripos. But the majority of the candidates relied almost entirely on their memory, a fact which appears to show that history is a bad subject for a pass examination, since, while the pass-man is especially tempted to rely on mere “ cram,” it is difficult to set questions which shall be tolerably easy and at the same time test, to some extent at least, the reasoning powers. Questions which cannot be answered without thought require a greater amount of reading in this subject than in others. An 70 OUR UNIVERSITIES- examination in history which shall be at once easy and satisfactory seems therefore to be impossible. THE EBRINGTON AND BOSWORTH PROFESSORSHIP OF ANGLO-SAXON. The Vice-Chancellor gave notice early in 1878 that there was established in the University an Anglo-Saxon Professorship under the name of “The Eb'rington and Bosworth Professorship of Anglo-Saxon,” and the election of a Professor was held at Clare College-lodge on the 15th May, 1878.

N ON -COLLEGIATE STUDENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY. Previously to the year 1858 no Student could be admitted a Member of the University who was not entered on the Boards of a College. In that year Statutes were confirmed providing for the establishment and regula- tion of Hostels for the reception of Students who should be matriculated and admitted to all the privileges of the University without being of neces- sity entered as Members of any College. No such Hostel, however, is now in existence. In the year 1869 a Statute was confirmed in accordance with which Stu- dents may be admitted Members of the University without being Members of any College or Hostel. Such Students keep Terms by residing in Cam- bridge with their parents or in lodgings duly licensed, and are entitled to be matriculated, examined, and admitted to Degrees in the same manner and with the same status and privileges as Students who are Members of Colleges. They are under the jurisdiction of the Vice-Chancellor and Proctors, and are required to pay due obedience to all academical regu- lations. All applications for admission and other communications are to be ad- dressed to the Censor, the Rev. R. B. Somerset, Trumpington Road, Cambridge. Examiners. Mathematical Tripos. — Mr. P.

The Special Board for Mediaeval and Modern Languages recommend that a tripos should be established in modern languages and literature, that a knowledge of French and German should be required of all candidates, and further, that a complete examination in these languages should include questions on grammar, historical grammar, and philology, and on the history of literature as well as a viva voce examination in the spoken languages. The Board also recommend that candidates should be required to write an English essay on some subject connected with the French and German language and literature. The Board also recommend that the examination for this tripos should be available for students who have made English a CAMBRIDGE. 79 special study. They would require such students to satisfy the examiners in the first four papers in French and German, and in the viva voce exami- nation, and afterwards to take five papers in English in place of the last five papers in French and German. The report contains a schedule of the plan of examination and the subjects of the various papers to be set, and also regulations for the proposed new tripos. The proposed regulations provide that a student may be a candidate if at the time of the examination he be in his eighth term at least, having previously kept seven terms, provided that nine complete terms shall not have passed after the first of the said seven terms unless the candidate shall have previously obtained honours in one of the honour examinations of the University, in which case he may be a candidate provided that twelve complete terms shall not have passed after the first of the said seven terms. The names of the students who acquit themselves so as to deserve honours are to be published alphabetically in three classes ; those who distinguish themselves in French or German shall have the letter F or G prefixed to their names, and those who pass the English part of the examination shall have the letter E similarly prefixed. NEW PROFESSORSHIPS AT CAMBRIDGE. By Statute B, ch. vi., sec. 2, it is provided that “ Professorships shall be established in the University for the following subjects — namely, Physiology, Pathology, Mental Philosophy, and Logic, the professors to be appointed in such order as the University may think fit.” The Council of the Senate are of opinion that there are funds arising from the Common University Fund from which the endowment of the Professorship of Physiology may be met, and recommend that immediate steps be taken for the appoint- ment of a Professor of Physiology accordingly. The Board of Medical Studies lately reported their opinion that a Professorship of Surgery should forthwith be established ; and that the professorship may for the present be without stipend. Professor Humphry has offered to accept such a pro- fessorship without a stipend ; retiring at the same time from the Professor- ship of Anatomy. The General Board of Studies approved the recommen- dation of the Board of Medicine, and the Council of the Senate, recognising the importance of doing whatever is possible to develop the vigorous and increasing School of Medicine in the University, recommend the acceptance of Professor Humphry’s liberal offer, and the establishment of a Professor- ship of Surgery, to which no stipend should be assigned for the present. The entry of freshmen this term at the various colleges, and also of those who commence residence as non-collegiate students, is in excess of any previous year — being 873. The numbers entered in the Michael- mas term during the last 10 years were as follows : — 1873, 617 ; 1874, 640; 1875, 680 ; 1876, 692; 1877, 723 ; 1878, 708; 1879, 808; 1880, 738 ; 1881, 828; 1882, 824; 1883, 873. Among the freshmen at Trinity College, under the tutorial care of Mr. Joseph Prior, M.A., is His Royal Highness Prince Albert Victor Christian Edward of Wales. The young Prince is entered as a Pensioner, and not as a Fellow Commoner. TEACHERS’ TRAINING SYNDICATE. Examinations of Teachers in 1884. An Examination in the Theory, History, and Practice of Teaching will be held at Cambridge, and in London, in June 1884, for persons 8o CAMBRIDGE.

No candidate can be admitted to the Examination unless he or she have either graduated in some Univer- sity of the United Kingdom, or obtained a certificate in one of the Senior Local Examinations of the Universities of Oxford, Cambridge, or Durham ; or passed the Examination for Matriculation at the University of London. The subjects of Examination are : (1) The Theory of Education ; the scientific basis of the Art of Education ; Elements of the Art of Education. (2) The history of Education in Europe since the revival of learning. (3) The Practice of Education ; this subject will consist of two parts— (a) Method, and ( b ) School management. A fee of 2 1. 10s. has to be paid to the Syndicate by each candidate. The Syndicate will also inspect in the summer of 1884 any College established for the training of teachers. Secretary of the Syndicate, Mr. Oscar Browning, King’s College, Cambridge. SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING. This technical school has been established by Professor Stuart, and there has been erected a complete carpenter’s shop, fitting and turning shops, and foundry. There are at present about 50 pupils, the greater number of whom are intending to enter the Engineering or allied pro- fessions, and a complete preparatory training, theoretical and practical, is given to them. The courses of lectures are 3 in each term — Michael- mas term, Lent term, and Easter term; thus forming a 3 years' curri- culum as follows : — 1st year : Mechanism and Applied Mechanics ; Elementary Mathematics (Algebra and Trigonometry) ; Statics and Hydrostatics. 2nd year : Dynamics ; Machine Construction and Heat ; Conics and Differential Calculus; Surveying and Levelling (practical class). 3rd year : Integral Calculus and Solid Geometry ; Theory of Structures and Strength of Materials ; Rigid Dynamics. Each term lasts for at least 8 weeks. Any person may attend the shops daily from 8 to 1, and from 2 to 6, including attendance at all lectures given, for the fee (covering 8 weeks in each of 4 terms) of 48 guineas. A pupil pays for the materials he uses, but there are no other extra charges. He takes away his own work when finished, and in some cases this reimburses him for the greater part of the fee he has paid. Principal, James Stuart. BALFOUR MEMORIAL FUND. The income accruing from this fund is applied : (1) To endow a Studentship, to be called the Balfour Studentship, the holder of which sRall devote himself to original research in Biology, especially Animal Morphology. (2) To further, by occasional grants of money, original research in the same subject. The Balfour Studentship is of the nett annual value of 200Z. ; or such larger sum as the University may from time to time determine, provided that if at any time the annual income accruing from the Fund be less than 200Z., the whole of such annual income be paid to the student. The Studentship shall not be awarded by the result of a competitive examination, and the student need not necessarily be a member of the University.

TRINITY COLLEGE Was founded by Queen Elizabeth in 1591, in which year the College of the Holy and Undivided Trinity was incorporated as the “ mater Universitatis,” and authorised to elect a Chancellor, and confer Degrees in the various Facul- ties. Its members consist of a Provost, 7 senior Fellows, 26 junior Fellows, and 70 Scholars on the foundation, besides 10 non-foundation Scholars, 30 Sizars, and about 1,200 Students. Its endowments are about 30,000Z. per ann., derived from landed estates, besides rents and fees and class-fees from Students, the last of which are about 30,000Z. per ann. It possesses 1 4 Studentships of 100Z. per ann., tenable for 7 years, and open to candidates ; of all religious opinions. Scholars have their commons free, their rooms at half the charge made to other Students, are exempted from other College - charges, and receive an annual salary. Sizars have also their commons free, , and are exempted from annual fees. Candidates for Sizarships must send in their claims for admission to the Senior Lecturer before June 1st in each year, and prove their poverty before they are permitted to compete for Sizarships, which are tenable for 4 years. There are four Professional Schools in this University, namely, Divinity, Law, Medicine and Surgery, and Engineering. Students in the Divinity and Law Schools must keep six Terms before obtaining the testimonials or licenses preliminary to a final examination. Degrees in Medicine are conferred only upon Graduates in Arts and the medical education of a Master in Surgery, or a Bachelor of Medicine, is of four years’ duration, costing in all, for Lectures, Hospitals, and Degrees, 109Z. 14s. The course for a Licentiate in Engineering lasts for three years, and the Degrees of Master in Civil Engineering are only conferred upon such as have been admitted to the B.A. Degree, and have publicly practised as a Civil Engineer for three years as a University Licentiate.

This University was opened in October, 1832, under authority granted by Act of Parliament, and received a Royal Charter on June 1st, 1837, by virtue of which its first Degrees were conferred on June 8th inthe same year. In 1841 an Order in Council provided that the Wardenship should be permanently annexed to the Deanery of Durham, that a Canonry in Durham Cathedral should be annexed to each of its Divinity and Greek Professorships, and that other Professorships should be founded in Hebrew and other Oriental languages. The Castle of Durham and its precincts had been previously (Aug. 8th, 1837) granted by the Queen in Council to be held in trust by the Bishop for the benefit of the University, and the College founded within the University was thus provided with a chapel, hall, and convenient rooms for Students. The annual value of the Scholarships and Exhibitions is upwards of £1500. The chief modifications and changes recently made in this University are the following : — The period of residence required for the Degree of B.A. is abridged from three years to two.

No person is admitted as a Student in Theology until he has attained the age of twenty years. Final examinations 'are held twice in the year, in June and December. Thus Students in Arts and Theology, who enter in October or January, can pass their final Examination and take their Degree or Licence immediately on the expiry of their two years of residence. In Michaelmas Term, 1870, a regulation was provided that persons should be admissible as Members of the University, without becoming Members of any College, Hall, or House, on condition that they resided in some house or lodging approved by the Warden and Proctors. The average annual expenses of a Student at University College, including those of the University as well as the College, are calculated at 80Z. to 85 1. ; at Bishop Hatfield’s Hall, at 70 1. 10s. to 76Z. 16s. for Students in Arts, and at 60 1. 10s. 6d. to 75 1. 16s. 6cZ. for Students in Theology.

Those Examinations take place half-yearly at stated periods. The peculiar feature of the University of London is that it is open to all, “ without distinction of rank, sect, party, creed, or place of education,” and that the institutions from which its candidates are chiefly derived, belong respectively to the Church of England and to Protestant Dissen- ters of every shade of opinion, as well as to Roman Catholics. The cost of obtaining Degrees is stated in the subjoined list of fees. Many years ago a vote was carried in the House of Commons in favour of the Charter of an University being conferred on “ University College, London,” with the usual power of granting Degrees, and the motion was carried by a large majority ; but soon after a change of Government oc- curred, and, in consequence of a recently presented “ Report of a Royal Commission on Scottish Universities there was a strongly- expressed opinion that teachers ought not to possess the power of estimating the nature of their own teaching ; and the Government of the day, acting under this influence, founded, with the sanction of Her Majesty, the 11 University of London,” which was originally intended, not to teach, but exclusively to confer Degrees, and to confer its Degrees upon the pupils of Colleges, not only in London, from time to time, but of those Institutions throughout the kingdom that would be recognised by the governing body of the University. The University College, London, sends the greatest number of candidates for examination. Examinations for Worn en .

Second B.A. — It has been found requisite in order to prevent the ex- clusion of Jewish Candidates to retain the former date (the fourth Monday in October) for the commencement of this Examination. The Preliminary Scientific ( M.B. ). — The new regulations with regard to practical work at the Pass Examination announced in the University Calen- dar for 1877 came into force in 1878.

LONDON, 133 Subjects relating to Public Health . — The programme of this Examination has been revised, with a more detailed indication of its subjects. Degrees in Music. — The regulations relating to these Degrees now first to be conferred by the University, are given in extenso in the University Calen- dar for 1878. The Examinations take place in December, and the Degrees conferred are First B. Mus., the fee being 51.; the Second B. Mus., the fee is also 51 . ; Doctor of Music (D. Mus.), fee 51 . ; Second D. Mus., also 51. A Certificate under the seal of the University, and signed by the Chancellor, shall be delivered at the public presentation for Degrees to each Candidate who has passed. Final settlement op the question as to the opening op the Doors op the University to Women. — At the annual meeting of the Convocation of the Uni- versity of London, held at the University Building, Burlington G-ardens, under the presidency of Dr Storrar, Dr. Carpenter laid on the table the new Supplemental Charter, dated 14th of May, 1878. It appears that Convocation decided to co-operate with the Senate in applying for a supplemental charter enabling the University to grant Degrees in all faculties to women, and to confer such Degrees upon those who might pass the examination, and that charter had now been received. The University of London is the first in Great Britain to open its doors to all comers, irrespective of sex. Another important step taken by the University during the past year is the granting of Degrees in Music. There is a steady increase in the number of candidates who came up at the recent examinations. In the first five years the average was 140 per year, in the second 200, in the third 350, in the fourth 400, in the fifth 700, in the sixth 1,100, in the seventh 1,500, while last year they amounted to no fewer than 2,123. During the year 24 candidates had passed the examination for women — seven in Honours, and in June, 1883, there were upwards of twenty ladies’ names in the list of successful candidates, sixteen received the certificate of Bachelor of Arts, and twenty-four took Honours in various subjects. In reference to the New Charter granted to the University, an address to the Senate and Convocation, signed by 1,960 ladies, was presented to Earl Granville on Feb. 13th, 1878. 134 OUR UNIVERSITIES. SCOTLAND. INTRODUCTORY. The four Universities in Scotland are S. Andrew’s, Edinburgh, Aberdeen, and Glasgow, and in the year 1858 they were reorganised and assimi- lated, and by the University Act of that year provision was made for the better government and discipline of the Universities of Scotland by im- proving and regulating the course of study therein ; and now the four Universities are governed under a nearly uniform constitution, each being now under three internal bodies, called respectively, the General Council of the University, the University Court, and the Senatus Academicus. The official heads of each University are the Chancellor, chosen for life by the General Council ; the Rector, chosen every three years by the Matriculated Students ; and the Principal or resident Head of the Univer- sity, who is President of the Senatus. The General Council consists of the Chancellor, who is President of the Council ; the Rector, who is President of the University Court ; the Prin- cipal and Professors and the Graduates of the University. In the absence of the Chancellor, the Rector presides, and failing him, the Senior Professor. The University Court is a court of appeal from the Senatus, and consists of the Rector, Principal, and Assessors. In Edinburgh the Lord Provost of the City and an Assessor nominated by the Town Council are additional members, and a Dean of Faculties is an extra representative of the Senatus in Glasgow. The Senatus Academicus consists of the Principal and Professors, who are entrusted with the control of the teaching and discipline, and, subject to the supervision of the University Court, with the administration of the revenues and property of the University. The four Universities return two members to Parliament, Edinburgh and St. Andrew’s being represented by one and Glasgow and Aberdeen by the other. The annual grant has now been increased to 40,000?. The endowments of each University, which are considerable, are applied in the form of prizes, bursaries, scholarships, and fellowships. Edinburgh and Glasgow possess a great number, and there are many bursaries in Aberdeen University. The Scholarships and Fellowships are chiefly for those who have passed the examination necessary for the degree of Master of Arts and the follow- ing are open to all the Scotch Universities : — 1. The Ferguson Scholarships, founded in 1860 by John Ferguson, of Cairnbrock ; they are six in number, of the value of 80?. each per annum, tenable for two years ; three are offered every year. 2. Shaw Fellowship in Mental Philosophy, founded in 1867 in memory of Sir James Shaw, Bart. ; it is of the annual value of 170?., and is tenable for five years. The present fellow was elected in 1878. 3. Gunning Theological Scholarship and Fellowship, founded by Dr. Gunning, of Rio de Janeiro, and intended to encourage the study of theology for the ministry of the Church of Scotland, or Free Church, and the study of the natural sciences among Students of Theology. There are three Scholarships of the annual value of 50?., 30?., and 20?. each, tenable for three years. These Scholarships were awarded for the first time in 1880. The Fellowship, of the annual value of 100?., open to Theological Students, will be awarded in 1883. THE UNIVERSITY OF S. ANDREW’S. 135 THE UNIVERSITY OF S. ANDREW’S. This, the oldest University in Scotland, was founded in 1411. The course of study necessary for the Degree of Master of Arts extends over 4 Winter Sessions, and includes attendance for not less than 2 Sessions on the Classes of Humanity, Greek, and Mathematics respectively; and at- tendance for not less than one Session on the Classes of Logic, Moral Philosophy, and Natural Philosophy, respectively; and also attendance on a course of English Literature (Rhetoric). But any Student who, at the time of his entrance to the University, can satisfy the Professors of the Faculty of Arts, on examination, that he is qualified to attend the other Classes of Latin, Greek, or Mathematics, or any one of them, may be admitted to such higher Class or Classes, without having previously attended the first or Junior Class or Classes in the same department. And when any Student has been thus admitted to the higher Classes both of Latin and Greek, without having previously attended the first or Junior Latin and Greek Classes, his course of study for the Degree of Master of Arts may be completed within 3 Winter Sessions instead of 4. The Degree of B. A. is not conferred. The fees of M.A. Examination are Three Guineas. The Degree of Doctor of Medicine may be conferred by the University of S. Andrew's on any registered Medical Practitioner above the age of 40 years, whose professional position and experience are such as, in the estima- tion of the University, to entitle him to that Degree, and who shall, on examination, satisfy the Medical Examiners of the sufficiency of his profes- sional knowledge : Provided always, that Degrees shall not be conferred under this section to a greater number than 10 in any one year. On or before the 25th day of March in each year, candidates lodge with the Registrar of the University the following certificates : — A certificate of age. Certificates from three medical men, of such acknowledged reputation in the profession, or of such standing in the medical schools, as shall satisfy the Senatus of the professional position and experience of the candidate. A certain portion (viz., 10Z. 10s.) of the Graduation Fees, 52 1. 10s., is forfeited should the candidate fail to appear at the time appointed for examination, or should he fail to pass the prescribed Examination, which is con- ducted both in writing and viva voce, in Materia Medica and General Thera- peutics, Medical Jurisprudence, Practice of Medicine and Pathology, Surgery, and Midwifery. A minute knowledge, however, is not required from those who do not practise these branches of the profession. The Session lasts in the United College from first Friday of November to last Friday of April ; in S. Mary’s College, from end of November to end of March. About 180 Students. UNIVERSITY ENDOWMENTS. The number of Bursaries attached to the United College is 74, varying in value from 51. to 30Z. per annum. The endowments for Special Prizes yield annually about 114Z. The number of Bursaries belonging to S. Mary’s College is 20, in value from 6Z. to 30Z. per annum. There are also 18 Bursaries of the same value, transferable from the United College, when the Bursars proceed to the study of Divinity. In this College there are two Prizes of 10Z. each, and a Testimonial of 21Z., open to competition in each Session. OUR UNIVERSITIES. 136 There are 5 Scholarships in the University : 2 of the annual value of 50 Z. each, tenable for 4 years ; 2 of the annual value of 50Z. each, tenable for 2 years ; and one tenable for 4 years — value for the first year 100Z., and 501 . for each of the 3 following years. The proceeds available for Bursaries, Prizes, and Scholarships in the University amount annually to above 2,000Z. UNIVERSITY SCHOLARSHIPS, Ramsay Scholarships. — There are 2 Scholarships on this foundation, of the annual value of not less than 50Z. each, tenable for 4 years. Each Scholarship is awarded after competitive examination in the several branches of study on which attendance is required of Students proceeding to the Degree of M.A. ; and all persons who have obtained the said Degree in the University in the year in which the competition takes place, or in the year preceding, are admissible to the competition. One Scholarship falls vacant in every alternate year. No person can hold either of these Scholarships along with any other Scholarship, Fellowship, or Bursary of any Scottish University. The examination for each of the said Scholarships is to be con- ducted by the Principal of the United College, and by the Professors on whose Classes attendance is required of Students proceeding to the Degree of M.A. Guthrie Scholarship. — Founded in 1864. This Scholarship is open for competition to all Students who have completed 2 regular Sessions at the United College, and whose age did not exceed 19 years on the 30th of November preceding the election. It is tenable for 4 years — value, 100Z. for the first year, and 50Z. for each of the 3 following years. The Guthrie Scholar is to continue his education at Oxford or Cambridge, or (with the consent of the Trustees) at some foreign University. If, after 2 years of general study, he desires to commence the professional study of Divinity, Law, or Medicine, in a Scottish University, he may do so with the sanction of the Trustees. Bruce and Falkland Scholarships. — Two Scholarships of the annual value of 50Z. each, founded in 1865, are to be held only by Students who have passed their examinations for the Degree of M.A. in the Session pre- vious to the bestowal of the Scholarships, and are conferred on any Masters of Arts who may have passed with Honours, or in such creditable manner as the Senatus may deem to render them deserving of the Scholarships ; and who are not above the age of 23 years when they have passed all the examinations for their Degree. The Scholarships are tenable for 2 years, during which the Scholars, if Students of Divinity, must attend S. Mary’s College ; but if they be Students “ in the Departments of Literature and Science, Law or Medicine,” the Scholars may prosecute the same in the University of Edinburgh. It is not competent for any person to hold one of the said Scholarships along with any other Scholarship or Fellowship of any Scottish University, or with any situation or appointment yielding to him an annual income of 50Z. or upwards. The Senatus now grants higher women’s certificates and titles of LL.A. The standard of this examination is the same for Pass and Honours as that of S. Andrew’s M.A. degree in the same subjects, and is held at several centres — some in England. Women are granted a full and systematic course of university instruction. 175 candidates presented themselves in 1881, and 33 passed. THE UNIVERSITY OF S. ANDREW’S. 137 UNIVERSITY OFFICERS.

THE UNIVERSITY OF EDINBURGH, Founded 1582, under a Poyal Charter granted by James VI., is a Corpora- tion governed by its Senate (whose decisions may, however, be reviewed by the University Court), and possessing a Chancellor elected for life ; a Vice- Chancellor, nominated by the Chancellor ; a Rector, elected triennially ; a Principal, who is the resident Head of the College ; and numerous Pro- fessors. This University has the largest number of Students of any Univer- sity in the United Kingdom, and it is admitted to be the most important and the largest of all the Schools of Medicine in the Kingdom, whether University or Hospital Schools. The number of Matriculated Students in 1881 was 3,160, and the attendance this year is higher than it has ever been in the whole past history of the University. The University is divided into four Faculties — Arts, Theology, Law, and Medicine ; the affairs of each of which are presided over by a Dean, elected from among the Professors. The ordinary academical curriculum in Arts, with a view to a Degree, extends over 4 Winter Sessions ; but 3 Winter Sessions are sufficient for Students ■who satisfy the Examiners, at their Entrance Examination, that they are qualified for admission to the higher classes of Latin and Greek. The acade- mical year is divided into 2 Sessions, whereof the Summer Session opens in the beginning of May, and ends in July, and the Winter opens in the begin- ning of November, and ends with April. For each of these Sessions, Class Fees of three, four, and five guineas each, are payable by every Student ; the Matriculation Fee of 11. should previously have been paid. Students must pass an Examination in seven subjects ; namely, Latin, Greek, Mathe- matics, Logic and Metaphysics, Moral Philosophy, Natural Philosophy and Rhetoric, and English Literature, but they need not be examined upon all at any one Examination for Degrees. There are above 100 Bursaries, varying in value from 5 1. to 100Z., tenable by undergraduates 1 to 4 years; 22 THE UNIVERSITY OF EDINBURGH. 139 Scholarships of 60?. to 120 ?., tenable 1 to 4 years ; and 4 Fellowships of 100?. to 170 ?., tenable 3 or 4 years after graduation by Students in the Faculty of Arts. In the Faculty of Theology every Student must be enrolled 4 Sessions, and attend not less than 3. The fee for each Class in Theology is 2 guineas the Session. There are 9 Presentation Bursaries in this Faculty, worth from 81. to 23 ?. each, tenable 1 to 4 years ; 9 Competition Scholar- ships, worth from 71. 10s. to 90?. per ann., tenable 3 years ; and 2 Presen- tation Scholarships, of 16?. 13s. and 25?., tenable 3 years. The Degrees of Bachelor and Doctor of Science are conferred, after Examination, upon Candidates who have attended Science Classes for at least 3 years. In the Faculty of Law there are 6 Chairs, upon all of which the Student wishing to take the Degree of Bachelor of Laws must attend ; fees, three to five guineas. The Faculty of Medicine comprehends 12 chairs or classes, the fees for which are four guineas each. Three Medical Degrees are conferred by this University ; viz., Bachelor of Medicine, M.B. ; Master in Surgery, C.M. ; and Doctor of Medicine, M.D. ; but the second of these is not conferred upon any person who does not at the same time, obtain the M.B. Degree, and none are qualified to be admitted to either Degree who have not passed one of four years of Medical and Surgical study in this University. The total minimum expenses for curriculum up to M.B. and C.M. Degree, and inclusive of all fees, is 104?. 18s. REGULATIONS FOR UNIVERSITY CERTIFICATES IN ARTS FOR WOMEN. I.

Local Examinations of Schools corresponding to those of Oxford and Cambridge are held in June annually by the University, and the Univer- sity, by an arrangement with the War Office, holds special examinations qualifying for admission to the army. The Degrees of Doctor of Divinity and of Doctor of Laws are conferred honoris causa tantum. Full details regarding matriculation, the curriculum of study in each of the Faculties and Degrees, and other regulations, are not within the compass of this work, and have only been given in brief, but all particu- lars appear in the University Calendar usually published in May. THE NEW UNIVERSITY BUILDINGS. The Town Council of Edinburgh have voted the sum of 1,000 guineas as a contribution to the final subscription list towards the completion of the new University buildings on the occasion of the tercentenary of the University. The statistics showed that while in the year 1868-9 there were 669 students in arts attending Edinburgh University, in 1881-2 these had increased to 1,047. During the same period the number of medical students of Scottish extraction had increased from 229 to 638. From England they had in the earlier year 159 medical students, as against 585 in the latter year-. The increase in Irish medical students had been from 12 in 1867-9 to 30 in 1881-2. Of foreign medical students there were in the former year 16 and in the latter 63, and from India there were in the former year 31, and in. the latter 120 ; but the most remarkable fact brought out by these statistics is, that while in 1868-9 there were 29 colonial medical students, in the year 1881-2 there were 202, a seven-fold increase during 13 years.. UNIVERSITY EDUCATION OF WOMEN. The Earl of Zetland has given 500 1. to the Edinburgh Association for the University Education of Women to found a bursary for the benefit of its students. This bursary will be known as the Earl of Zetland’s Bursary. MATRICULATED STUDENTS. Matriculated Students may be members of any of the four Faculties. They have the privilege of electing the Rector of the University. In case of an equality of votes, the Chancellor, or failing him, the Principal, has the castiilg vote. Students also enjoy the right of admission to the University Library, and on certain days to the Museum of Natural His- tory. Their names are preserved in the General Album, which is the legal register of attendance at the University. Students are subject to the ordinary discipline of the Professors, and of the Senatus Academicus. University Matriculation consists in a Student entering his name in THE UNIVERSITY OF EDINBURGH. 143 the General Roll of Students of the University, and in paying a fee of 1 1. for one year, commencing in November, or a fee of 10s. for a summer session, commencing in May. Matriculation is necessary before a Student can enter any of the classes in the University, or any extra-academical classes which are intended to qualify for graduation, and a declaration is signed by Students on matriculating. The University Library consists of about 138,000 printed volumes, and 800 volumes of MSS., many of which are of great value and interest. The Museum of Natural History was established in 1812, and the Royal Botanic Gardens in connection with the University extend to 27 acres, with greenhouses, hothouses, palm-house, etc. For the curriculum in Arts. The annual expense for 'class fees, matricu- lation, etc., for the regular course in Arts may be estimated at about 10Z. 10s. The ordinar}' curriculum in the Faculty of Arts, with a view to a Degree, extends over four winter sessions. The regulations and classes to be attended are given in cxtcnso in the University Calendar.

At this University annual local examinations are held similar to those at Oxford and Cambridge. VICTORIA UNIVERSITY, MANCHESTER. 153 VICTORIA UNIVERSITY. MANCHESTER. This University was founded and incorporated by Royal Charter in 1880. The characteristic features of this University are, (1) It will not confer its degrees on Candidates who shall have passed certain examina- tions only, but will also require attendance on prescribed courses of academical study in a College of the University, and (2) according to the constitution of the University, it contemplates becoming ultimately a federation of Colleges ; but these Colleges will not be situated like those of Oxford and Cambridge, in one town, but wherever a College of adequate efficiency, stability, and numbers shall have arisen. In the matter of women’s education, according to the charter of this University, power is given to confer and grant all degrees and other distinctions to male and female students alike. Inasmuch, however, as all persons presenting themselves for examination for a degree in the University must have pursued a regular course of study in one of its Colleges, only such women as have pursued the prescribed course of study in the Owens College (at present the only incorporated College of the University) can be examined for a degree. The Court of Governors of the Owens College has already approved in principle a scheme which will enable women to pursue regular courses of study in arts in the Owens College, or in a special women’s department organically connected with it. According to the University charter, there is, however, a proviso that the University shall not grant degrees in medicine or surgery, unless and until authority in that behalf is given by a further charter or Act of Parliament. But by a supplementary Royal charter granted in 1883, the University is now empowered to confer degrees in medicine and surgery. Regulations as to the examinations and degrees in medicine and surgery are in course of preparation. MATRICULATION. University Matriculation consists in the placing of the name of a Student upon the Register of Scholars of the University. Every Candidate for matriculation is required to furnish the Registrar with a certificate of his admission as a Student of one of the Colleges of the University, and on payment of the matriculation fee of £2, he signs an undertaking to obey the Regulations of the University. Students can matriculate in June, and in the Michaelmas term of each Academical year, and Students presenting themselves for any of the examinations for degrees of the University, must present certificates of having matriculated.

The West Scholar- ship, of the value of 30Z., has been awarded by the Council of University College to H. P. Dean and H. R. Norris, of University College School. This Scholarship, tenable at University College, was founded in 1877, on the retirement of Ebenezer West from the Headmastership of Amersham Hall, by his former pupils, in recognition of his services in the cause of education. The award of the West Scholarship depends on the marks gained by candidates in the English subjects at the Matriculation Exami- nation of the University of London. ♦ UNIVERSITY COLLEGE SCHOOL. This school is under the government of the Council of University College. Founded 1832. Upwards of 600 boys attend this school, some of whom board with the Masters. This school forms a distinct branch of University College, and its pupils are wholly secluded from the students. Boys are admitted at any age between 9 and 15. The session consists of 40 weeks, and is divided into 3 nearly equal terms, the Michaelmas, Lent, and Summer terms. The hours of attendance are from 9.30 to 3.45, with a break from 12.30 to 1.30 for play and refreshment. The Michaelmas term begins on September 27th, and ends on December 21st. The Lent term begins, January 10th, and ends on April 21st. The Summer term begins April 29th and ends on August 1st. The first YOL. I. 13 194 OUR UNIVERSITIES. day of each term is set apart for the reception of new boys. The ordinary work of the school commences on the following morning. The fee for each term is 8 guineas ; half-term fee for boys entering at the half-' term, 4 guineas. These payments include ordinary stationery; but books, chemical materials, and drawing materials are not included. The subjects taught, exclusive of the extras above specified, are Reading, Writing, the English, Latin, Greek, French, and German Languages; History, English and Ancient ; Geography, Physical and Political ; Arithmetic, Mensuration, and Book-keeping ; Mathematics, pure and applied ; Chemistry, theoretical and practical ; Chemical Physics ; Botany, Natural Philosophy, Social Science, Drawing from the flat, Class Singing. Parents are allowed (subject to the Head Master’s right of veto) to select the subjects in which their sons are to be instructed, as well sub- sequently as at entry. It is essential, however, in the former case, that their wishes should be made known before or, at latest, at the beginning of a session or term. During the interval between morning and after- noon lessons, boys remain on the school premises. Passes are, however, granted where the parents’ house is near the school. Attached to the school is a large playground, which is open until dusk in winter, and until 5.30 in the summer. There are also a gymnasium, fives courts, and playrooms. At the end of the Michaelmas and Summer terms there is an Examination of all the classes. An honour list is printed at the end of the session, and sent to parents, and prizes are awarded. Five entrance Scholarships, open to boys under 14, whether already in the School or not, are competed for in July of each year. The Case Exhibition of 20 Z. is awarded annually to the pupil who distinguishes himself most in the school Examinations of the session preceding his entry into the classes of the College. The Trevelyan Goodall Art Scholarship of 20Z. is tenable for 3 years in the Slade School of Fine Art in the College by former pupils in the drawing classes of the school. See particulars of the West Scholar- ship under the head of “ University College.” The college is close to the Gower Street Station of the Metropolitan Railway, and only a few minutes’ walk from the termini of the North-Western, Midland, and Great Northern Railways. . To pupils attending the school, season tickets are granted at half-price. Boarders are received in their houses by E. R.

Willis Bund, M.A., LL.B., Barrister-at-Law. UNIVERSITY COLLEGE, LONDON. 195 DEPARTMENT OF APPLIED SCIENCE, ENGINEERING, AND TECHNOLOGY. The Department of Applied Science and Technology is intended to provide for Students wishing to devote themselves to Engineering, Archi- tecture, Applied Chemistry in any of its branches, or any other manufac- turing or commercial pursuit, a systematic training in the application of scientific principles to industrial purposes. As in all other Departments of the College, there is in it an unrestricted admission of Students, with- out previous examination, to any class or classes they may select. It is, however, in all cases advisable that a student should consult the Dean or Vice-Dean of the Faculty of Science, or the Professor of the subject with which he proposes most closely to connect himself, before arranging his work. Curricula are given below, under the different headings of Engineering, Chemical Technology, etc, which indicate the arrangement of classes which in general will enable a student to derive the greatest benefit from the instruction given in the Department of Applied Science. When circumstances permit, and the student has sufficient time at his disposal, it is in most cases advisable that one or other of these curricula should be attended. But when from any cause this is impossible, it becomes especially advisable that the student should consult one of the Professors before deciding what classes to. attend. It should be clearly understood that the education given in this Depart- ment of the College is not intended to supersede such necessary practical training as can only properly be acquired in the workshop or factory. It will be noticed also that the curricula specified below include not only instruction in Applied Science, but also such preliminary instruc- tion in Pure Science (especially in Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry) as a Student ought to have before proceeding to study its applications. The study of Modern Languages is not specially mentioned in any of the courses detailed, but their importance to the student in this Depart- ment is exceedingly great, and it may therefore be often advisable that some time should be given to them.

They will also be allowed to paint from the antique or the life, according to their proficiency. Subjects for Composition will be given by the Professor from time to time. The Students will also pursue such other studies as the Professor may direct, and will be required to work under his direction, from the antique, from the nude, or from the draped model, as he may think best for them, according to their degrees of proficiency.

This well-known College was founded in 1828, by Royal Charter, upon the principle that “ the Christian religion is an indispensable part of the instruction which should be given to youth.” The Theological Department provides a system of sound Theological Instruction for ^oung men proposing to offer themselves for Holy Orders, and is superintended by the Principal of the College. Students in this depart- ment are admitted on proof of their having either graduated at Oxford, Cambridge, Durham, or Dublin, or of their having obtained an Associ- ateship of King’s College, or who, having been examined and reported (eligible by the Principal, shall obtain the recommendation of a Bishop. The course of study must be continued during at least 6 academical terms (2 years). Examinations take place in each of the several branches of instruction every term, and a probationary viva voce must be passed by every Student in his fourth or fifth term. At the close of the course KING’S COLLEGE, LONDON. 199 of 2 years a strict Examination takes place ; and to alt* students who have merited such a distinction by their attainments, and by their good character during the period of their studies in King’s College, the Principal is empowered by the Council to grant a certificate of attain- ments, which may be exhibited for the satisfaction of that Bishop to whom any student may apply to be admitted as a candidate for Holy Orders. The 2 Archbishops and 25 of the Bishops have consented to admit as candidates for Holy Orders those students who shall produce the College certificate. The fees for attending the full prescribed Theological course are 10 guineas per term for all Associates of King’s College, London ; and 12 guineas per term for all other students, in ad- dition to 61. 17 s. 6 d. for Matriculation fees. The Academical year con- sists of 3 terms : Michaelmas term, from about the 1st of October to the week before Christmas ; Lent term, from about the 20th of January to the week before Easter; Easter term, from about 10 days after Easter to the end of June. Gentlemen (not being Graduates) not wishing to attend the whcfle course may select any one or more subjects, at fees varying from 1 to 4 guineas per class for each term, or 5 to 8 guineas a year. Any person 20 years of age, not wishing to qualify to pass the Examination for admission into the Theological Department, can enter classes for instruction in Latin, Greek, Hebrew, and Divinity, on payment of 8 guineas per term ; attendance from 10 to 2 o’clock daily. In the matter of women’s education, it will be remembered that King’s College celebrated its jubilee three years ago by creating special classes at Kensington for female students, and the advantages were soon availed of by nearly 500 girls and women. This scheme has now become a distinct department of the College, and although locally remote, the two sets of undergraduates, male and female, are placed under the same system and government. Full particulars of this department are given in Yol. ii. of this work. In the department of General Literature, preparatory for the Universities or for the Competitive Examinations of the Civil Service, etc., the course consists of Religious Instruction, according to the principles of the Church of England, the Greek and Latin Classics, Mathematics, Modern History, French and German Literature ; the fees for matricu- lated students are 14 1. per term, as well as 61. 17s. 6d. for matriculation fees, cap, gown, etc. Students (who must not be under 16 years of age) matriculate in January, April, or October, and keep 3 terms a year. After 3 years’ study the Diploma of “ Associate” is conferred. In the department of instruction in the Applied Sciences, for qualified young men to be engaged in Civil and Military Engineering, Surveying, Architecture, etc., the course comprises Religious Instruction, Mathe- matics, Natural Philosophy, Chemistry, Geology, Arts of Construction, Geometry, Mineralogy, Drawing, and Photography. There are workshops fitted up with engines, lathes, forges, benches, and all necessary imple- ments, and experienced workmen are in attendance. The fees are 14 guineas a term for matriculated students, some of whom reside in the College, and some with the Professors. After keeping 9 terms in these studies, and fulfilling other conditions, the students of this department are entitled to the Diploma of “ Associate of King’s College.” In the Medical Department, matriculated students receive their entire Medical education. The year is divided into 2 sessions, whereof the Winter Session begins October 1st, and continues to the end of March, and the Summer Session begins on May 1st, and ends with July. The College 200 OUR UNIVERSITIES. and Hospital fees, in the case of matriculated students, for the lectures required by the College of Physicians, the College of Surgeons, and the Society of Apothecaries, amount to 125 /. This sum will cover all that of necessity must be paid for during 3 years’ course of study. Students are however recommended to add to this sum the fee for attendance on the Medical Tutor’s class for 1 year, viz., 3 guineas. All resident students are required to attend the Tutor during their first year. The fees may be paid either in one sum of 125/. on Matriculation, or in two or three annual instalments, as may be agreed. Besides the Warneford Scholarships, which consist of 2 Scholarships of 25/. per annum, tenable 3 years, and the Daniell Scholarship of 20/. per annum, the following are given every year to matriculated students of this department : — 1 of 40/. per annum, for 2 years, open to students of the third and fourth year ; 1 of 30/. for 1 year, open to students of the second year ; 3 of 20/., for 1 year, open to students of the first year ; besides several valuable prizes.

Strand, close to the Thames Embankment, and near the Temple Station. This school, numbering about 600, is a branch of King’s College, London, opened in 1830. The pupils of the former are quite distinct from the pupils of the latter institution. King’s College School is divided into — 1. The Upper School; 2. The Middle School; 3. The Lower School. The Upper School consists of — A. The Division of Classics, Mathematics, and General Literature ; B. The Division of Modern Instruction. I. The Upper School : A. Division of Classics, Mathematics, and General Literature. B. Division of Modern Instruc- tion. This Division is intended to prepare pupils for general and mercantile pursuits. II. The Middle School. This Division is intended to prepare boys for both Departments of the Upper School. III. The Lower School. This Division is intended to prepare boys for the Middle and Upper School, and to ground them thoroughly in their Elementary work. Before entering a pupil, the Head Master must be furnished with a testi- monial of good conduct from the applicant’s last instructor, as well as such particulars with respect to his previous studies as may lead to a correct classification. The general age of admission is from 8 to 16 years, but boys requiring special preparation for the Military, Medical, and Legal Examinations, for Civil Service appointments, or mer- cantile life, can be entered above this age, subject to the special approval of the Head Master. Parents desirous of obtaining any par- ticulars before entering a pupil will save themselves much trouble if they will communicate by letter with the Head Master at King’s College, London, W.C. Pupils who have been in the school 2 years, and, before leaving it, have reached the Upper Sixth Class, are entitled to be recom- mended for election as Associates of King’s College, London, after 2 years’ study in the General Literature or Applied Sciences Departments of the College, instead of after 3 years as in all other cases. The vaca- tions consist of 7 weeks in summer, 3 weeks at Christmas, and 3 weeks at Easter. The fees for the whole regular course of instruction are : for boys entering under 16 years of age, 24 Z. per annum ; for boys entering over 16 years of age, 30Z. per annum, including stationery and the use of books. There are 3 terms in the year. An additional sum of 2s. 6l. from an unmarried and 11. 10s. from a married officer, as a contribution to the College mess funds, in addition to the regulated quarterly subscription ; and an entrance subscription of three guineas to the College library. The qualifications requisite for admission are : — a. A service of not less than five years, previous to Examination, ex« elusive of leave of absence. b. A certificate from his Commanding Officer, that the Candidate is in every respect a thoroughly good regimental officer. c. A confidential report (in answer to specific questions) regarding the character, habits, and disposition of the Candidate. d. A certificate that the Candidate, if not a captain, has passed the Examination for a troop or company, and the “ Special Army Examination.” e. A medical certificate of good health and fitness for the active duties of the staff. The competitive Examination for entrance to the Staff College comprises the following subjects, the relative value of each at the Examination being shown by the number of marks attached to it : — Mathematics, limited to arithmetic, algebra, geometry, plane trigono- metry, and elementary mechanics (900). Military history and geography (900). French (400). German (300). Hindustani (300). Fortification (600). Military topography (30C). Geology, exclusive of mineralogy (300). Chemistry, heat, electricity, and magnetism (300). The College course of study commences annually on or about the 1st February The obligatory subjects are : — 1. Mathematics (1st year only). 2. Forti- fication and field engineering. 3. Artillery. 4. Topographical drawing, military surveying, and sketching and road making. 5. Reconnaissance. 6. Military art, history, and geography. 7. Military administration and law. 8. French, or German, or Hindustani. 9. Riding. A synopsis of the course of study will be forwarded to any officer on application to the Director-General of Military Education, War Office. The course of study occupies two years, which period is not to be exceeded. The yearly course is divided into two terms, viz , from the 1st February to the 15th July, and from the 1st September to the 15th December, the intervening periods constituting the vacations. 222 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. At the end of the second year a final Examination will be held for the purpose of testing the general proficiency of the Students in the obligatory subjects of the College course. In the Examination in modern languages, great stress will be laid on original composition, and on colloquial knowledge, and Candidates who shall have proved their fitness for employment in the topographical department of the War Office, by a superior knowledge of French and German, as well as of Topography, will be named in the report of the Director-General of Military Education as qualified for employment in that Department.

This Military Academy is maintained for the purpose of affording a preparatory education to Candidates for the Royal Artillery and Royal Engineers ; the education is chiefly technical, and in no obliga- tory subject is carried beyond the point useful to both corps alike. The number of Cadets varies according to the requirements of the Service, and the admission is determined by competition, unaccompanied by nomi- nation. Notice is given from time to time of the Examinations for admis- sion, which are conducted under the superintendence of the Civil Service Commissioners, and take place half-yearly, at Christmas and Midsummer. The limits of age for admission are from 16 to 18 years. Any gentleman who wishes to present himself at one of the competitive Examinations must send in his name to the Military Secretary at the Horse Guards two months before the time of his Examination, forwarding the following papers : — 1st. An extract from the register of his birth. 2nd. Certificates of good moral character from his twelfth year to the date of application. Candidates are inspected by Military Surgeons on the first day of the Examination, in order that it may be ascertained that they are free from any bodily defects. The number of trials allowed will not exceed three. OUR MILITARY SCHOOLS. 223 Every Candidate will be required to pass a qualifying Examination, and immediately after passing the “preliminary,” a further Examination. Candidates must qualify in the following subjects : — 1. Mathematics — viz., (a) arithmetic, and the use of common logarithms ; (b) algebra, including equations, progressions, permutations and combinations, and the binomial theorem ; (c) geometry, up to the standard of the sixth book of Euclid ; ( d ) plane trigonometry, including the solution of triangles. 2. French, German, or some other modern language, the examination being limited to translation from the language, and grammatical questions. 3. Writing English correctly, and in a good legible hand, from dictation, and English composition. 4. Geometrical drawing. No marks will be allotted for the Preliminary Examination, excepting for mathematics (2,000), for English composition (500), and for geometrical drawing (300). Candidates are required to satisfy in mathematics, one modern language only, geography, English composition, dictation, and geometrical drawing. In the further Examination the maximum number of marks obtainable for each subject are as follows Mathematics (viz., further questions and problems) (4,000). English composition and literature, including 500 allotted in the preliminary Ex- amination (2,000). English composition and history (2,000). Latin (2,000). Greek (2,000). French (2,000). German (2,000). Italian, Russian, Spanish, or Hindustani, at option of Candidates (2,000). Experimental sciences, chemistry, heat, &c., (2,000). Free-hand drawing (1,000). Of these nine subjects a Candidate will not be allowed to take up more than four for competition, or five if free-hand drawing be one of them. A Candidate may in reality pass with one subject only (mathematics), provided he has qualified previously. The terms of payment to be contributed annually on behalf of a Cadet are paid half-yearly, in advance, and are the same as at the Royal Military College, Sandhurst (see p. 143). The pay of a Cadet is 3s. a day : it is issued to cover the expense of regimental clothing, messing, washing, and other contingencies. Each Cadet on first joining will be required to pay, in addition to the regulated contribution, a sum of 2 51. to cover the expense of uniform, books, &c., and to bring with him the articles of clothing of which he will receive notice, and which must afterwards be kept up at his own expense. The Field-Marshal Commanding- in -Chief is the President of the Royal Military Academy. The Academy is under the control of a Governor, a military man, selected with special reference to his qualifications for superintending both instruction and discipline, and appointed by and responsible to the Secretary of State for War, through the Field-Marshal Commanding-in -Chief. The Governor, with the approval of the Secretary of State for War, will have the power of appointing and removing the Professors and Instructors. The organization is on a military basis. The Cadets form one company under a Captain, assisted by four Lieutenants, charged with the discipline out of studies and the drill, one of whom will be Adjutant and Quarter- Master. The Professors and Instructors may be either military men or civilians. 224 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. The Professors and Instructors will have certain limited powers of pun- ishment, within and without the halls of study, at the discretion of the Governor, to whom they will report all punishments which they may inflict. A sword is given at each final Examination as a special reward for excel- lence in conduct. The length of the course of instruction is two years and a half, and if any Cadet fail to come up to the required standard at two Examinations, he will be removed. The following subjects form the course of obligatory subjects : — 1. Mathematics, including a thorough knowledge of plane trigonometry (the above to form the first year’s course) ; practical mechanics, with the application of mathematics to machinery. 2. Fortification, field and permanent ; such a course as is suitable to Cadets qualifying for the Artillery, and the requisite amount of geometrical drawing. 3. Artillery ; such a course as is suitable to Cadets qualifying for the Engineers. 4. Military drawing, with field sketching and reconnaissance. 5. Military history and geography. 6. French or German, at the Student’s choice. 7. Elementary chemistry and physics. 8. Drills and exercises.

SCHOOL OF MUSIC, KNELLER HALL, NEAR HOUNSLOW. This Military School of Music is conducted at Kneller Hall, near Hounslow, London, and it was established in 1857, with the object of giving a thorough musical training to bandmasters, and for the instruction of soldiers, who are selected by their commanding officers, to become more efficient mem- bers of regimental bands. In Germany the taste for music is so great and general, that the keeping up of regimental bands is comparatively an easy task, so that it frequently is practicable to form a supplementary band in addition to the Regulation one. This is quite the reverse in Eng- land. The late LorJ. Gough well knew the value of stirring music in con- nexion with troops on the march, or in the hour of danger and attack ; and the abolition of the bands in the French Cavalry by Marshal Neil has ever since been regretted. It is satisfactory to know that according to the Queen’s Regulations a band should form an integral part of every regi- ment. A certain number of soldiers, with one sergeant and one corporal, and who are subject to the ordinary military discipline, constitute the band of an English regiment, the cost of instruments and the salary of the bandmaster (if a civilian) being defrayed by the officers. Thus the excel- lence of the bands must depend very much on the private means of the VOL. I. 15 (H. Hart, Esq. < E. F. S. Tylecote, Esq., M.A. (Captain P. A.

Until the establishment of the Kneller Hall Institution the efficiency of a military band depended chiefly upon the ability and zeal of a competent bandmaster. This Institution is kept up by the payment of HR a year from the Band Fund of each regiment, and other sources of income. The mode of admission is on the recommendation of the com- manding officer, who selects a boy or soldier who has a musical taste. He can then study at the school for two years, afterwards he is appointed to a regiment when a vacancy occurs. Those men who go through the course of training for bandmasters are also selected by the commanding officer, and in each case on the recommendation of the bandmaster. They have to be instructed in every instrument which is played by the band. A bandmaster ranks and receives the pay and allowance of a first class staff sergeant, and in addition to this he receives 100Z. per annum out of the Band Fund. The most satisfactory results have attended the systematic and efficient training at this Institution, which owes its existence to Mr. Henry Schallehn, Civilian Bandmaster, 2nd battalion Rifle Brigade and 17th Lancers, from 1840 to 1854, who, as Founder, became the first Resi- dential Musical Director at Kneller Hall in 1857, and he was also appointed first Musical Director at the Crystal Palace in 1854.

All Candidates for each of the three Military Medical Services of the Queen (British, Indian, and Naval) are obliged to go through a four months’ course of special training at this School. They are selected by an open competitive examination, held in London twice a year (in February and in August). The Candidates are then examined by an Examining Board in the following compulsory subjects ; and the highest number of marks attainable are distributed as follows : — a. Anatomy and Physiology, 1,000 marks ; b. Surgery, 1,000 ; c. Medi- cine, including Therapeutics, the Diseases of Women and Children, 1,000 ; d. Chemistry and Pharmacy, and a practical knowledge of drugs, 100 marks. The Examination in Medicine and Surgery is in part practical, and includes operations on the dead body, the application of surgical apparatus, and the examination of medical and surgical patients at the bedside. The eligibility of each Candidate for each Service is determined by the result of the Examinations in these subjects only. Examinations are also held in the following voluntary subjects, for which the maximum number of marks are — French and German (150 each), 300 marks; Natural Sciences, 300 marks. The knowledge of modern languages being considered of great importance, all intending competitors are urged to qualify in French and German. The Natural Sciences include Comparative Anatomy, Zoology, Natural Philosophy, Physical Geography, and Botany, with special reference to Materia Medica. The number of marks gained in both the voluntary OUR MILITARY SCHOOLS. 227 subjects will be added to the total number of marks obtained by those who shall have been found qualified for admission, and whose position on the list of successful competitors will thus be improved in proportion to their knowledge of modern languages and these branches of Natural Science. After passing this Examination, every Candidate will be required to attend one entire course of practical instruction at the Army Medical School on — (1) Hygiene ; (2) Clinical and Military Medicine; (3) Clinical and Medical Surgery ; (4) Pathology of Diseases and Injuries incident to Military Service. The Naval Candidates attend, in addition, special courses of instruction in Naval Hygiene, given by the Professor of Naval Hygiene — a naval medical officer specially appointed for that duty. The Lectures on Military Surgery include gunshot wounds and other injuries ; arrangements for the transport of wounded ; duties of Army Surgeons in the field, during sieges, on transport, and other special sub- jects. Those on Military Medicine refer to tropical diseases, and especially diseases of soldiers in the British possessions and colonies, and to the losses by disease in peace and war at home and abroad. The Lectures on Hygiene comprise all duties relating to the examination of water, air, food, clothing, of the soldier, his duties and exercise, and the circumstances affecting his health ; also the subjects of meteorology, statistics, and pre- vention of the principal diseases met with in the Army, on home or foreign service. The Lectures on Pathology have reference chiefly to the scientific examination of organs and parts affected by disease, which the Army Sur- geon is specially called upon to investigate. The Candidates also attend in the wards of the Hospital to study the diseases of invalids under the Professors of Medicine and Surgery, the system of recruiting, and the modes of keeping the Army medical returns, records, and diet sheets. They are also called on to make post mortem examinations, to operate on the dead body, and to pass through courses of practical instruction in the laboratory on the modes of recognising the qualities and adulterations of food, and in the micro- scope room on the modes of microscopic examination of morbid tissues, the adulterations of food, and examinations of deposits in water. At the conclusion of each session at Netley the Candidate will be required to pass an Examination conducted by the Professors of the school on the subjects taught in the school. If he give satisfactory evidence of being qualified for the practical duties of a military medical officer, he will be eligible for a commission as surgeon in the service he has chosen. The position of the Candidates on the list of Surgeons will be determined by the combined results of the preliminary London Examination and of the final Examination at Netley ; and, as far as the requirements of the services permit, they will have the choice of Presidency in India, or of eligible appointments in the Army and Navy, according to their position in that list. During the period of his residence at Netley, each Candidate receives an allowance of 5s. per diem with quarters, or 7s. per diem without quarters, to cover all cost of maintenance ; and he is required to provide himself with uniform (viz., the Regulation undress uniform of a Surgeon, but without the sword. All Candidates are required while at Netley to conform to such rules of discipline as the Senate of the School may from time to time exact. Two Prizes are awarded at the end of each session. (1) The Candidate who gains the highest number of marks at the combined Examinations of London and Netley, to him will be awarded the Herbert Prize (sum of 20Z., 228 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. paid him through the W.O.) (2) To the Candidate who similarly stands highest in Military Medicine, is awarded the Martin Memorial Medal. The School is governed by a Senate, and its administration is directly under the Secretary of State for War. The conditions for admission of Candidates to the competitive examina- tions in London vary in each of the three services as follows : — NAVAL MEDICAL SERVICE. 1. Every Candidate desirous of presenting himself for admission to the Naval Medical Service must be not under twenty-one nor over twenty- eight years of age. He must produce a certificate from the District Regis- trar, in which the date of birth is stated ; or, if this cannot be obtained, an affidavit from one of the parents or other near relative, who can attest the date of birth, will be accepted. He must produce also a certificate of moral character, signed by a clergyman or a magistrate to whom he has been for some years previously known, or by the President or Senior Professor of the College at which he was educated. — 2. He must be free from organic disease, and will be required to make a declaration that he labours under no mental or constitutional disease or weakness, nor any other imperfection or disability that can interfere with the most efficient discharge of the duties of a medical officer in any climate. His physical fitness will be determined by a Board of Medical Officers, who are to certify that his vision comes up to the required standard, which will be ascertained by the use of Snellen’s test-types. He must also attest his readiness to engage for general service, and to proceed on foreign service when required to do so. — 3. He must be registered under the Medical Act in force at the time of his appointment as licensed to practise Medicine and Surgery in Great Britain or Ireland. — 4. Certificates of registration, character, and age must accompany the Schedule when filled up and returned. After completing three years’ full-pay service, Surgeons will be allowed to be examined for the rank of Staff-Surgeon, but no Surgeon can be pro- moted to the rank of StafF-Surgeon until he shall have served five years, two of which must have been in a ship actually employed at sea. ARMY MEDICAL SERVICE. 1. Every Candidate desirous of presenting himself to compete for a commis- sion in the Army Medical Department must be twenty-one years of age, and not over thirty -two years at the date of the commencement of the competitive Examination. He must produce an extract from the register of his birth, or, in default, a declaration made before a magistrate by one of his parents or guardians, giving his exact age. He must also produce a recommendation from some person of standing in society — not a member of his own family — to the effect that he is of regular and steady habits, and likely in every re- spect to prove creditable to the department if a commission be granted ; and also a certificate of moral character, from the parochial clergyman if possible. — 2. The Candidate must sign a declaration upon honour that both his parents are of unmixed European blood, and that he labours under no mental or constitutional disease, nor has any hereditary tendency thereto, nor any imperfection or disability that can interfere with the efficient dis- charge of the duties of a medical officer in any climate ; also that he does not hold, and has never held, any commission or appointment in the public OUR MILITARY SCHOOLS. 229 services. His physical fitness will be determined by a Board of Medical Officers, who are required to certify that the Candidate’s vision is sufficiently good to enable him to perform any surgical operation without the aid of glasses. A moderate degree of myopia will not be considered a disqualifi- cation, provided it does not necessitate the use of glasses during the performance of operations, and that no organic disease of the eyes exists. The Board must also certify that he is free from organic or other disease, and from constitutional weakness, or tendency thereto, or other disability of any kind likely to unfit him for military service in any climate. — 3. Cer- tificates of age, registration of diplomas, &c., and of character, must ac- company the declaration when signed and returned. — 4. Candidates must have two qualifications — one to practise medicine, and the other surgery, and must be so licensed under the Medical Act of 1858. — 5. Those gentle- men who may be selected for appointments will receive 250 1. per annum and allowances in addition, after passing the Examination at the Army Medical School at Netley. — 6. The tenure of appointment will be limited to ten years, and on the completion of that period of commissioned service, surgeons, unless they be specially selected for further employment in the Department, will be entitled to receive, in lieu of all pension on retirement (pension for wounds excepted) the sum of 1,000Z. — 7. Application for ad- mission to the London Examination should be made in writing to the Director-General of the Army Medical Department, London, by whom a printed schedule, containing further particulars, will be furnished. INDIAN MEDICAL SERVICE. 1. All natural-born subjects of Her Majesty, between twenty-two and twenty- eight years of age at the date of Examination, and of sound bodily health, may be Candidates. They may be married or unmarried. They must possess a diploma in Surgery or a license to practise it, as well as a Degree in Medicine or a license to practise it, in Great Britain or Ireland. — 2. They must subscribe and send in to the Military Secretary, India Office, Westmin- ster, so as to reach that address at least a fortnight before the date fixed for the Examination , a declaration according to a specified form (to be obtained at the India Office) ; and this declaration must be accompanied by the following documents : — (a) Proof of age, either by the Candidate’s own declaration (form of which is to be obtained at the India Office) or by extract from the register of the parish in which he was born (a certificate of baptism which does not afford proof of age will be useless). ( b ) A certificate of moral character from a magistrate, or a minister of the religious denomination to which the Candidate belongs, who has personally known him for at least two years preceding the date of his application, (c) A certificate of regis- tration, in accordance with the Medical Act of 1858, of the degrees, diplo- mas, and licenses possessed by the Candidate. — 3. The physical fitness of Candidates will be determined previous to Examination by a Board of Medical Officers, who are required to certify that the Candidate’s vision is sufficiently good to enable him to perform any surgical operation without the aid of glasses. A moderate degree of myopia would not be considered a disqualification, provided it did not necessitate the use of glasses during the performance of operations, and that no organic disease of the eyes existed. Every Candidate must also be free from organic disease of other organs, and from constitutional weakness, or other disability likely to unfit him for Military Service in India. 230 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. DIFFICULTY IN OBTAINING MEDICAL OFFICERS. It is a recognised fact that applications from candidates for the Army- Medical Service have greatly decreased of late years, making it extremely difficult to fill up the vacancies so frequently occurring. The service having become generally unpopular, chiefly caused by their status in the regiment not being adequately recognised, and until the proper social privileges and the full rank is accorded to them, and equal position with combatant officers is admitted, the present difficulties will remain, and the Army Medical Service still be as distasteful to the feelings of educated gentlemen as it is at the present day. A Committee, appointed by Lord Cranbrook, to inquire into the whole of the circumstances which tend to deter eligible candidates from coming forward for this important and honourable service, have issued their report, and most of the difficulties will be removed ; it is intended they shall henceforth be designated “Royal Army Surgeons,” and their social equality and Regimental Status will be more clearly defined.

SCHOOL OF MUSKETRY AT HYTHE. The School of Musketry at Hythe was established in 1853, with the object of supplying a central school of instruction in the new system of musketry practice, in consequence of the introduction of rifled arms into the Service. At present the establishment serves a double purpose : — it is at once a Normal School to which a certain proportion of officers, non-com- missioned officers, and privates are annually sent from various branches of the Service to be trained in the established system of musketry, and which supplies the regular army with a staff of regimental instructors ; and, in OUR MILITARY SCHOOLS. 231 addition, it constitutes a department exercising functions of general super- vision and inspection over the musketry practice of the army, and ensuring uniformity in the mode in which the authorized regulations are carried out. The staff of the School consists of a Commandant, a Deputy Assistant, Adjutant-General, one Chief Instructor (a Field Officer), two Captain In- structors, two Subaltern Instructors, a Quartermaster and Adjutant, a Surgeon, and a number of non-commissioned officers and privates employed partly as instructors and partly on duties incidental to the establishment. In order to carry o.ut the system of musketry uniformly throughout the Service, there is attached to each battalion of infantry, and to the corps of Royal Engineers, a paid musketry instructor, who has obtained a certificate of qualification at the Central School at Hythe. Every battalion of Infantry, and, as a rule, every regiment of Cavalry, as well as the corps of Royal Engineers, passes annually through a regular course of musketry instruction. This course comprising preliminary drill, with the view of habituating the soldier to the proper use of his rifle, theo- retical instruction, and terminating with ball practice. Recruits on first joining go through a more extended course than that to which the trained soldier at a later period of his service is subjected. The officers who regimentally conduct the musketry instruction through- out the Service are, as we have stated, trained in the duties they perform at the Central School at Hythe. At this establishment four separate courses of instruction are carried on annually, each course lasting two months. During every course nearly 300 individuals are generally under instruction. Of these the proportions from the various ranks are, about 60 officers, 160 non-commissioned officers, and 80 privates. Among the officers, besides those of the various branches of the regular land forces, are included a certain proportion of officers of the Royal Navy and Marines, and of the Militia and Volunteers : the great majority of the non-commissioned officers and privates belong to the regular Army. The course of training at the School consists of practical and theoretical instruction in the mode of conducting the established system of musketry practice, and of imparting to others the knowledge thus acquired. With this is combined, in the case of officers, a voluntary course of lectures, in- tended to afford a more scientific acquaintance with the theory of projectiles, and the history and progressive improvement of small arms. Throughout the course the officers and non-commissioned officers are subjected to a constant series of Examinations, designed to test both their theoretical acquaintance with the subjects taught at the School, and their power of communicating instruction to others. According to the proficiency thus shown, combined with the results of a final Examination at the end of the course, they receive certificates of qualification as instructors, the certificates granted to officers being of three classes, representing various degrees of merit.

The following subjects form, together with the practical instruction at the School of Gunnery, the course for the Officers on being commissioned. Field Battery and the necessary Infantry Drills are supposed to be learnt on the Officers being finally posted to Brigades.

ARMY EXAMINATIONS IN 1884. At the competitions for the Royal Military College, Sandhurst, and the Royal Military Academy, Woolwich, to be held in July 1884, and at the examinations to be held in April 1884, of lieutenants of Militia who are candidates for commissions in the Regular Army, the examination in English literature will be limited to the following authors : — Spenser, “Faery Queen,” Book I.; Shakespeare, “King John” and “ Merchant of Venice” ; Byron, “ Childe Harold”; Bacon, Essays I. to XXX., inclusive ; Macaulay’s Essays, “ Burleigh and his Times,” “ Life and Writings of Addison,” and “ Frederic the Great.” The examination in English history will be limited, at the candidate’s choice, either to the period a.d. 1760 to 1790 (inclusive), or to the period a.d. 1790 to 1820 (inclusive). The candidate’s reading on the period selected should include that part of “Bright’s History” which treats of it, also in the October and December Examination At the examinations to be held in October 1S84, the examination in English literature will be limited to the following authors : — Chaucer, Prologue to “Canterbury Tales” ; Shakespeare, “Merchant of Venice” and “ Henry VIII. ” ; Pope, “Essay on Man,” “Satires (with Prologue),” and “Epistles”; Bacon, Essays XXIII. to LVIII., inclusive; Macaulay’s Essays, “Burleigh and his Times,” “Life and Writings of Addison,” and ■“ Frederic the Great.” OUR MILITARY SCHOOLS. 237 ROYAL HIBERNIAN MILITARY SCHOOL, PHOENIX PARK, DUBLIN. The design and character of this School is in the main the same as that of the Model School at Chelsea ; viz., to afford a gratuitous education to the sons of soldiers, orphans having a prior claim. The majority ©f the children admitted (over 400 in number) to it are the sons of Irish parents. The Hibernian School was originally founded in 1769, and was, like the sister establishment at Chelsea, entirely re-organised in 1846, when a Charter was granted to it. The general management of the School is vested in a Board of Governors, of whom the Lord Lieutenant and the General Officer commanding the Forces in Ireland are respectively President and Vice-President. The other Governors likewise hold their appointments ex officio, th'e great majority of them being either Officers of the Staff or Field Officers of the regiments belonging to the garrison of Dublin. The general staff of the establishment consists, of a Commandant, an Adjutant, Secretary, a Quarter-master, a Surgeon, a Protestant Chaplain, and an officiating Roman Catholic clergyman. The instructional staff consists of a Head Master, three Assistant Masters, and a non-resident Singing Master. The Masters are assisted in their duties by Monitors. The conditions of admission are in principle the same as at the Duke of York’s School. The consideration of the claims of the various applicants rests with the Committee of Governors. The limits of age for admission are from 7 to 12. The organisation and system of discipline are military, and as far as possible resemble those of a regiment. The pupils, 410 in number, are for purposes of military training and discipline distributed in six companies, each of which is under the charge of a serjeant assistant. For purposes of instruction the pupils are arranged in four divisions, each under the charge of its own master, the Head Master exercising a general supervision over the education of the whole School, and periodically examining the junior divisions. The subjects of instruction consist of reading, writing, and dictation, arithmetic, algebra, mensuration, elementary mechanics, geography, English grammar, English history, singing, and sacred history. In practical military exercises, in, addition to drill, instruc- tion is given in gunnery, gymnastics, and swimming. A number of the boys are also trained as musicians in the band, while others learn the trades of tailoring and shoemaking, and a small number, not exceeding eight or ten, are taught carpentry. The whole clothing of the establish- ment is made up by the pupils, of whom 112 are employed as tailors. The pupils are not permitted to remain at the School after the age of 14, the only exception being in favour -of those who are candidates for the office of monitor. The method adopted in regard to the disposal of the boys on quitting the School is the same as at the Duke of York’s School As at the latter establishment, the great majority (amounting to nearly 80 per cent. ) of those declared fit for military service volunteer for the army, According to the records of this School, it would appear that there are now 1,065 soldiers who have been old pupils, viz., 122 who are serving in the 238 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. Cavalry, 268 in the Royal Artillery, 142 in the Royal Engineers, and 533 in the Infantry. Of this number 1,007 bear the title in the military returns as “ very good,” or at least “ good character,” and not a single case of desertion occurred in 1877. About 400 pupils are now at this School. STAFF OF OFFICERS. Commandant. — Col. F. C. Hill, late 56th Regt. Secretary and Adjutant . — Major J, W. Fitzgerald.

ROYAL MILITARY ASYLUM. “DUKE OF YORK’S SCHOOL,” (NORMAL, MODEL, AND LOWER SCHOOLS,) Chelsea. This institution is still familiarly known by the designation of the ‘ ‘Duke of York’s School,” and it was founded in 1803, the year following the Treaty of Amiens. It was intended to be an educational home for the orphan children of soldiers ; and as regards the boy orphans, the results have been eminently satisfactory. Provision was originally made for 700 boys, exclu- sive of the girls, but the number is now only 480. The general discipline of the school is excellent, and the army is largely recruited from its ranks. .This institution possesses the best boys’ band in the United Kingdom. And with regard to the character of the pupils who have entered the service, it may be well to mention that out of 442 “fighting men,” nearly two-thirds of the number have become non-commissioned officers. In these Schools, candidates for the situation of Army Schoolmasters are trained for their duties. Non-commissioned officers and privates of the Army recommended by their officers, civilian pupil-teachers who have com- pleted their apprenticeship, and certificated school-teachers are eligible if they be of sound health, free from deformity, from 20 to 25 years of age, and not under 5 feet 5 inches in height. The period of residence may ex- tend to 1 J years, during which time civilian candidates are messed and pro- vided with uniform at the public expense. On completing their course of training as Students, and on being reported qualified by the Director- General of Military Education, they will be enlisted and appointed Army Schoolmasters ; if civilians, they will be enlisted (without bounty) for general service for the period of 12 years ; if soldiers, they will be dis- charged from their regiments and re-enlisted (without bounty) for general service for the period of 12 years, reckoning towards their pension as school- masters their service prior to admission to the Royal Military Asylum, but no portion of the time spent by them at the Royal Military Asylum. Army schoolmasters rank as non-commissioned officers next below sergeant-majors. Their pay is as follows, with quarters, fuel and rations, or allowance in OUR MILITARY SCHOOLS. 239 lieu: — On first appointment, 3 s. 11c?. per cliem ; after 2 years’ service, 4s. Id, increasing 6d. per diem every 3 years’ service. Schoolmasters, after 21 years’ service, calculated according to the regulations, are entitled to a pension, the maximum rate of which is 3s. 6d. per diem. Superintending Schoolmasters are selected from the Army Schoolmasters for merit and service. They receive commissions as officers, with the relative rank of subaltern. Their pay is 10s. a day, according to services, with quarters or lodging money, and with an allowance of Is. a day in lieu of a soldier ser- vant. Superintending Schoolmasters may, with the sanction of the Com- mander-in- Chief and the Secretary of State for War, be permitted to retire after an aggregate service of 30 years, calculated in conformity with the regulations, on an allowance of 8s. or 10s. per diem. The widows of Super- intending Schoolmasters will be eligible for pensions, and their children for an allowance from the Compassionate Fund, under the regulations applicable to officers of corresponding rank. All Army Schoolmasters are subject to the Mutiny Act. The total cost of this institution is about 12,000?. yearly. All the boys are taught useful trades during half the time. STAFF OF OFFICERS.

The joint committee of the War Office and Civil Service Commissioners have issued their report upon the question whether the present literary examinations for the army should be supplemented by physical competi- tion, and they recommend that competitions should be held under the following six heads : — (1) riding, (2) walking, (3) running, (4) leaping, (5) swimming, (6) gymnastics. The examination in these exercises to be en- tirely voluntary, and considering that some of them, e.g., riding, swimming, and gymnastics, cannot be practised with success except under conditions which may not be within the reach of all competitors, it is proposed that no candidate should be allowed to enter as a competitor under more than three heads, and that the total number of marks allotted to the physical competition should be obtainable by adequate proficiency in any three. By this arrangement, in addition to the 4,000 marks allowed at the examination - for merit in intellectual subjects, 1,200 marks will be allowed for merit in athletic exercises, that is, 400 for each subject. THE ARMY MEDICAL DEPARTMENT. The report of the Committee appointed by Lord Cranbrook to inquire into the causes which prevented candidates coming forward in sufficient numbers for the Army Medical Department has just been issued. It is suggested that the new united department should receive a distinctive designation, such as “Royal Army Surgeons,” or “Royal Medical Staff”: that it should be recruited by the admission of probationers, of whom one half are to be nominated by the “ medical teaching bodies ” of the United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia, and the other half to be admitted by open competitive examination — both classes to consist of gentlemen registered under the Medical Act, and the nominations to be subject to the approval of the Director-General. During the probationary period, and until they have completed their course at Netley, they are to rank as lieutenants, and to receive 8s. a day pay. It is proposed that the maximum age on admis- sion should be reduced to twenty-eight. OUR MILITARY SCHOOLS. 241 THE OXFORD MILITARY COLLEGE, COWLEY, NEAR OXFORD. This College was opened at Cowley, near Oxford, on the 20th of Septem- ber, 1876, and the origin of it is due mainly to the individual exertions of Major John Graham, Royal Pembroke Artillery Militia. Their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of Connaught visited this School on the 16th June, 1883, and Her Royal Highness distributed the prizes on that occasion. It is situated about two miles from the city of Oxford. The old Manor House of Temple Cowley has been utilised for the purpose, and new buildings have been added. The College was formed to prepare candidates for the Army, to give them, at a reasonable cost, a thoroughly good education, to develop in individuals those branches of learning for which they happen to have an aptitude, and which would have some reference to their future career, to supply a certain amount of technical instruction, and aceustom candidates early in life to habits of order, military discipline, and obedience. The situation of the College, in the vicinity of Oxford, has been found in many ways most advantageous. For not only can the staff be strengthened by the assistance of able teachers who are resident in the University, but the students who take up the subject of geology, for instance, have advan- tages which are conferred by the proximity of good museums, and of a neighbourhood which is exceptionally instructive in its features. Moreover, to mention a less important matter, they have opportunities also of enjoying cricket, football, and boating, and of playing matches against the different Colleges of the University. Nearly 150 students are in attendance, and it is intended, (1) To provide the best possible education for the sons of Officers ; (2) To train and prepare candidates (whether sons of Officers or not) for commissions in the military service. Students are trained from the first in a course of study which is intended to prevent the necessity of any special strain being put upon them at the last moment for passing the military examinations ; hence the advantage of their entering the College as soon as they afe admissible, namely, at the age of thirteen. There are three Terms in the year, commencing about the middle of January, April, and September, and the fees for each Term will be payable in advance. The vacations amount to about thirteen weeks in the year. Officers serving in India will be specially considered in reference to vaea- tion arrangements, &c. The fees for students under seventeen years of age, if they do not take the full military course, and if nominated by a holder of twenty shares, are seventy guineas per annum ; if not so nominated, ninety guineas per annum. For all students above seventeen years of age, and for all who take the full military course, including equitation, if nominated by a holder of twenty shares, the fees are eighty guineas per annum ; if not so nominated, one hundred guineas. Six Scholarships, of 25Z. to 75Z. per annum respectively for two years, have been offered for competition lately. Numerous College prizes and others are given annually. The nominees of shareholders, whether holders of twenty or a smaller number of shares, will have the preference for admission. YOL. I. 16 242 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES.

The Royal Naval College consists of three principal divisions — viz., the Military, Navigating, and Civil ; the Military Division comprises the follow- ing ranks : — Naval Cadet, Midshipman, Lieutenant, Commander, Captain, and Admiral. The Navigating Division includes the following : — N avigating Cadet, Navigating Midshipman, Navigating Sub-Lieutenant, Navigating Lieutenant, Staff Commander, and Staff Captain. The Civil Division is sub-divided as follows : — (a) Second-class Assistant Engineers, First-class Assistant Engineers, Chief Engineers, and Inspectors of Machinery afloat ; (b) Naval Instructors and Chaplains ; (c) Surgeons, Staff Surgeons, and Fleet Surgeons ; ( d ) Assistant Clerks, Clerks, Assistant Paymasters, and Paymasters. The regulations for the examination of cadets of the “ Mili- tary Branch” are identical with those in force for the “Navigating Division.” Her Majesty having by an Order in Council issued in January, 1873, sanctioned the founding of this College, it was opened on the 1st February, 1873, having been organized for the purpose of providing for the education of Naval Officers of all ranks above that of midshipmen in all branches of theoretical and scientific study bearing upon their profession, the Admi- ralty being anxious to give to the executive officers of the Navy every possible advantage in respect of scientific education, and for the highest possible education also of others connected with the Navy. The working of the College has so far been most satisfactory, and the results of the year show that the standard of examination is so adjusted as to enable officers of good abilities, who on entering the Navy diligently employ themselves to studying their profession, to obtain their Lieutenant’s com- mission; while, on the other hand, it affords to those who are backward and ignorant on joining the College an opportunity of retrieving lost time and of maintaining their place in the Navy if they earnestly avail themselves throughout the whole period of study of the means afforded them at the College, Ten private students passed through a course of instruction, nine of the number being foreign officers. Besides the actual studies thus conducted within the College, a large amount of work connected with the other educational business of the Navy, both in its executive and civil branches, devolves upon the officials of the establishment. Twice in each year entry examinations for Naval cadetships and assistant clerkships are held at the College. The prelimi- nary examinations of candidates for Naval Instructorships and also for Interpreterships are likewise conducted there ; and, finally, the papers for the half yearly examination of junior executive officers of all classes of the Fleet conducted on board their respective ships, for the half-yearly exami- OUR NAVAL SCHOOLS. 247 nation of the cadets of Her Majestys’ ship “ Britannia,” and for the half-yearly examination of the Dockyard schools, are all prepared and sent from the Naval College, the result subjected to a careful analysis, and the whole collated and reported on exhaustively. The College, subject to the subjoined Regulations, is open to Officers of the following ranks : — 1. Captains and Commanders ; 2. Lieutenants ; 3. Navigating Officers ; 4. Naval Instructors ; 5. Acting Sub- Lieutenants ancj Acting Navigating Sub- Lieutenants ; 6. Officers Royal Marine Artillery, Officers Royal Marine Light Infantry ; 7. Officers of the Engineer Branch, viz., Chief Engineers, Engineers, Assistant Engineers, Acting Assistant Engineers ; 8. A limited number of Dockyard Apprentices will be annually selected by competitive examination; for admission to the College. A course of instruction at the College will also be open to a limited number of — 9. Private Students of Naval Architecture or Marine Engi- neering ; 10. Officers of the Mercantile Marine. It is not intended to provide at Greenwich for the education of the Naval Cadets. The number of Students at the College will render it possible not only to carry out instruction by individual tuition as hitherto, but to secure a staff of eminent professors, to arrange lectures and classes, and to provide chemical and physical laboratories, on a scale which has hitherto not been possible in any Naval establishment. The following are the courses of study: — 1. Pure Mathematics, including Co-ordinate and Higher Pure Geometry, Differential and Integral Calculus, Finite Differences, and the Calculus of Variations ; 2. Applied Mathematics, viz., Kinematics, Mechanics, Optics, and the Theories of Sound, Light, Heat, Electricity, and Magnetism ; 3. Applied Mechanics, including the Theory of Structures, the principles of Mechanism, and the Theory of Machines ; 4. Nautical Astronomy, Surveying, Hydrography, with Maritime Geo- graphy, Meteorology, and Chart Drawing ; 5. Experimental Sciences : — (а) Physics, viz., Sound, Heat, Light, Electricity, and Magnetism ; (б) Chemistry ; (c) Metallurgy ; 6. Marine Engineering in all its branches; 7. Naval Architecture in all its branches ; 8. Fortification, Military Draw- ing, and Naval Artillery ; 9. International and Maritime Law ; Law of Evidence and Naval Courts Martial ; 10. Naval History and Tactics, including Naval Signals and Steam Evolutions ; 11. Modern Languages ; 12. Drawing ; 13. Hygiene — Naval and Climatic. The general organization of the College is as follows : — A Flag Officer is President ; he is assisted by a Captain in the Royal Navy in matters affecting discipline, and in the internal arrangements of the College unconnected with study. A Director of Studies will, under the President, organize and superintend the whole system of instruction and the various courses of study. The following changes are introduced in the Regulations as regards the time of study in the case of Officers who are required to attend the College. (а) The time allowed to Acting Sub-Lieutenants to qualify for their Examination in Navigation for Lieutenants will be extended from six weeks to six months. (б) Gunnery Lieutenants will be required to pass a term of nine months, from 1st October to 30th June, in the College at Greenwich, 248 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. before commencing their practical course in the “ Excellent,” instead of, as at present, a term of seven months after they have completed it. Officers, on applying to qualify as Gunnery Lieutenants, if they have not already served one year at sea as Lieutenants, will he at once appointed to a sea-going ship, in order to complete the year’s service required before they cpmmence their studies. (c) Successful Candidates for Commissions in the Royal Marine Light Infanty should, before receiving their Commissions, have the advantage of a term of study in the College. They also propose to assign a longer term of study bo Officers of the Royal Marine Artillery. ( d ) All Acting Assistant Engineers, will in future be sent to Greenwich, after leaving the dockyards, for a period of study before their appointment to sea-going ships. Arrangements have been made for the admission of Naval Engineer Officers to the College, which will prevent time spent at the College from entailing any pecuniary loss upon them. The School of Naval Architecture at South Kensington will be absorbed in the Royal Naval College, Greenwich. The regulations for the admission of Engineer Students and of Dockyard Apprentices have been so framed as to provide as nearly as possible the same aggregate time for their instruc- tions as that which is now afforded at South Kensington. Further regu- lations will be issued by their Lordships in regard to the admission of private Students to the course of study at the College on similar conditions to those now existing at South Kensington. A limited number of Officers of the Mercantile Marine are admitted as Students of the College, enjoying the full advantages of the whole course of instruction and tuition by the Educational Staff, while Officers of the Mercantile Marine generally will, on application, be allowed to attend courses of lectures. It is expected the College will become, not only an educational estab- lishment affording the means of the highest training in theoretical subjects to Naval Officers of all classes, but also a nucleus of mathematical and mechanical science specially devoted to those branches of scientific investi- gation which have most interest for the Navy. GENERAL REGULATIONS. 1. Officers and others who are required by regulations to pass through the College will follow such courses of study as may be from time to time prescribed. 2. Officers and others admitted as Students on their own application will, within certain limits, be allowed to select any course of study, and to attend all Lectures that may be given in the Theatre of the College, but a course in Mathematics will be considered indispensable. 3. Officers and others connected with the Public Service, and Officers of the Mercantile Marine, may, on application to the Admiralty, be allowed to attend Courses of Lectures, although not admitted as Students in the College, subject to such regulations as their Lordships may determine. 4. The privilege of attending Lectures may be extended to other classes, if the arrangements of the College will admit of it. OUR NAVAL SCHOOLS. 249 5. The term of study for all Officers, excepting Acting Lieutenants and Acting Sub-Lieutenants, will commence on October 1st in each year, and conclude on June 30th following. Officers will be admitted at the begin- ning of each Term, excepting those above specified, who, for the present, will enter monthly. 6. The vacation will commence on the 1st July, and terminate on the 30th September in each year. In addition, leave of absence will be granted for ten days at Christmas and for a week at Easter. The vacations for Acting Sub-Lieutenants will be six weeks at Midsummer and one month at Christmas. 7. All Officers on full pay will wear their uniform within the precincts of the College. 8. No Officers, unless under exceptional circumstances, will be permitted to rejoin for an additional period of study beyond that laid down in the foregoing Regulations, until after an absence of four years (two of which must have been passed in active service). 9. Captains, Commanders, and Chief Engineers taking advantage of the instruction at the College may reside outside the precincts, if they desire it. All other Officers admitted as Students must occupy rooms in the College, and join the appointed mess, unless special permission is obtained to reside outside. 10. Officers not making satisfactory progress will not be allowed to remain as Students at the College. 11. A Special Examination in the higher branches of study taught at the College will be held at the end of every Term, the most successful com- petitors in which will receive special rewards as stated below. This examination will be open to all Officers above the rank of Sub-Lieu- tenant, but will be entirely voluntary. The Officer attaining the highest number of marks will be granted 100Z. a year for 3 years. The Officer taking the second place will be granted 80Z. a year for 3 years, and the Officer taking the third place, 50 l. a year for 3 years. 12. Arrangements for regulating the courses of study and the relative value to be assigned to each subject in the various examinations, will shortly be promulgated. 13. Honorary Certificates will be given to Officers who are admitted as Students for a course of voluntary study, and who reach a certain standard at the examination on the completion of their course. 14. Officers who have received Honorary Certificates at the College, and Gunnery Lieutenants who have qualified at Greenwich, will be distinguished by the letter G appended to their names in the Navy List.

For the Information of Candidates. Nominations for Naval Cadetships take place half-yearly immediately after the report of the last Examination has been received. 130 cadets are received on board the “Britannia.” An Examination of the young gentlemen who have obtained Nomina- tions is held at the Royal Naval College, Greenwich, under the direction OUR NAVAL SCHOOLS. 251 of the Admiralty Examiners, on the third Wednesday in June, and the last Wednesday in November in each year, but the appointments date from the 15th of July and January following respectively. No Candidate is eligible for Examination in June whose age will not be within the following limits on the 15th July following : — viz., not less than twelve nor more than thirteen and a half years of age ; nor in November whose age will not be within those limits on the 15th January following. Every Candidate is required to pass the Medical Examination according to the prescribed regulations, and must have been found physically fit for the Royal Navy. He must be in good health, and free from any physical defect of body, impediment of speech, defect of sight or hearing, and also from any pre- disposition to constitutional or hereditary disease or weakness of any kind, and in all respects well developed and active in proportion to his age. Any Candidate rejected at the Medical Examination will, subject to the approval of the Board, be finally excluded from the Royal Navy. The Candidate will be required to produce (1) a certificate of birth or declaration thereof made before a magistrate, (2) a certificate of good con- duct from the masters of the school or schools at which he may have been educated during the two previous years, or, if educated at home, from his tutors or the clergyman of the parish in which he resides, and (3) a certifi- cate of good health. The Candidates are required to pass an examination in the following subjects, and, if successful, are forthwith appointed to H.M.S. 1 1 Britannia, ” the Training Ship for Royal Naval Cadets at Dartmouth ; and at the expira- tion of two years, Cadets go up for final examination for appointments on the active list of the Royal Navy. The pay of a Naval Cadet on board the Britannia is 18/. 5s. per annum. Marks assigned.

Candidates whose age exceeds thirteen on the 15th July or 15th January following the Examination will not be allowed a second trial. Any Candidate who fails to appear at the Examination after he has obtained a Nomination will not be allowed to present himself at any future Examination without a fresh Nomination, except in the case of illness certified by a physician or surgeon, and approved by their Lordships, in wdiich case the Candidate will be allowed to present himself at the follow- ing Examination, provided he is still within the limits of age ; but under no circumstances v/ill such a Candidate be allowed to appear at more than one Examination. For all Cadets entered under these regulations the annual rate of pay- ment will be at the rate of 70 1. per annum for the period in the “ Britannia,” to be paid half-yearly in advance to the Accountant-General of the Navy. But the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty reserve the power of selecting from among the Candidates nominated at each half- yearly Examination, a number, -jiot to exceed 10, being sons of Officers of the Royal Navy, Army, or Marines, or of Civil Officers under the Board of Admiralty, with respect to whom the annual payment for the two years in the ‘‘Britannia” will be 40 1. only. In selecting these their Lordships will have regard solely to the pecuniary circumstances of the parents or guardians of the Cadets. No application for admission on such reduced scale will be entertained unless made before the Candidate is nominated. The period of training on board the “ Britannia ” is four Terms ; two Terms in each year. The first Term of each year is from February to July, the second from August to December. The vacations are five weeks at Christmas, two weeks at Easter, and six weeks at Midsummer. There are Examinations in Seamanship and Study at the end of each Term. Cadets who pass unsatisfactory Examinations at the end of any Term will be “warned,” and they will be liable to be discharged at the end of the following or any subsequent Term, should they again be reported as failing to attain the proper number of marks at the Examinations. The same rule will apply to Cadets who may be reported for un- satisfactory conduct during their service in the “ Britannia.” Any Cadet who shall have been specially reported to their Lordships as for any reason unfit for the Service will be removed from the Navy. Cadets will, on passing out of the Training Ship, take the order in which they pass their final Examination. The parent or guardian of every Cadet will be required to provide outfit as under the regulations in force hitherto, and to sign a declaration (on the admission of the Cadet to the “Britannia”) to the effect that he shall be immediately withdrawn on the receipt of an official intimation of his being considered unfit for the Royal Navy. (The cost of an outfit is 100Z. ) Candidates entered under these regulations must understand that they are liable, at any period of their service subsequent to the date of leaving the Training Ship, to be selected to qualify for the Gunnery or Navigating Branches of the Service at the discretion of their Lordships ; who will, however, only exercise such power of selection in the event of there not being a sufficient number of volunteers for such duties. The Princes Albert Victor and George Frederick of Wales, the eldest OUR NAVAL SCHOOLS. 253 sons of His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, were among the cadets on board H.M.S. “ Britannia,” and went through a regular course of train- ing, and on the 24th July, 1879, they bade farewell to the ship, having both obtained first class in seamanship and conduct. This establishment has been further increased by the addition of a yacht for the use of Cadets. The “ Syren ” having been purchased by the Admi- ralty for this service, but the charge is to be placed against the Cadet’s fund. • Her Royal Highness the Princess of Wales, accompanied by His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, the Duke of Connaught, and attended by the Right Hon. W. H. Smith, First Lord of the Admiralty, and others, visited the “ Britannia ” in 1878. After Her Royal Highness had presented the prizes to the Cadets, the Prince of Wales, standing on the deck in the uniform of the Royal Naval Reserve, said, — My lords, ladies, and gentlemen, permit me to express to you the great pleasure it has given the Princess to present to the Cadets who are about to leave the “ Britannia” the prizes which they have so successfully won, and to express to you on my own part, as well as on that of the Princess, the very great pleasure it has given us to be here to witness and take part in these interesting proceedings. From Dr. Hirst we heard a most interesting and exhaustive speech regarding the studies of the Cadets and their merits. I can only wish those who are about to leave the “ Britannia,” and who have now fairly entered that noble service for which they have been trained, all possible success. Let me hope that the tuition they have received here will not be thrown away upon them, and that they may all emulate those bright examples to be found in English history, and of which every naval officer must be proud. To those Cadets who still remain on board this ship, I can only recommend strict assiduity to their studies, and strict obedience to discipline, and all of them to try and pass out of the “Britannia ” as highly as they can, re- membering, above all, that saying which one of our greatest admirals has handed down to posterity, — “ England expects every man will do his duty.” A personal interest which the Princess and myself take in this ship, and the confidence we have of its being an excellent practical school for boys, have been testified by the fact that we have sent our two sons among you to be educated. For myself, my only hope and trust is that they may do credit to the ship and to their country. When the Prince and Princess arrived at Dartmouth, they were rowed to the “ Britannia,” one of their sons steering, and the other pulling the second bow oar. They left the ship in a boat rowed by full-grown sailors, and with their two sons, who were going home for their holidays, sitting in the stern -sheets. The Rev. J. Clement P. Acdons is the Principal Naval Instructor. W. B. Lowe, Instructor in Natural Science. ♦ REGULATIONS RESPECTING CADETS WHILE UNDER TRAINING ON BOARD H.M.S. “BRITANNIA.” Naval Cadets who join the “Britannia” are allowed four Terms — two in each year — to complete their course of study, at the expiration of which they go up for final examination.

This School was established in 1801, and now consists of nearly 1,000 boys, the sons of petty officers and seamen, and of non-commissioned officers and privates of marines, who have served, or are now serving, in the Royal Navy or Coastguard, and of other seafaring persons. All claims for admission to the School will be judged of by a Committee of Selection, appointed by the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty, in the following order of precedence, special consideration being given to length of service at sea : — 1. Orphans, both parents dead. — 2. Sons of fathers killed, drowned, deceased, wounded, or seriously maimed in Her Majesty’s Service, or while employed by Her Majesty on board a merchant ship, or in action with an enemy, pirate, or rebel. — 3. Those whose fathers, having served in the Royal Navy or Marines, are dead. — 4. Those whose fathers are serving, and whose mothers are dead. — 5. Sons of naval and marine pensioners. Sons of seamen and marines now serving, both parents living. — 6. Sons of seamen or marines entitled to the benefits of Green- wich Hospital, not included in the foregoing classes. — 7. Sons of other seafaring persons. — The sons of commissioned and other officers are not absolutely excluded, provided that the peculiar circumstances of their case render them eligible for this charity. Applications for admission are to be made to the Secretary of the Admiralty (Greenwich Hospital Branch), London, when the necessary forms will be sent, which, when properly filled up, must be returned as directed, with the three following documents : — (a) A certificate of the marriage of the parents ; or, if not attainable, other satisfactory proof thereof ; (b) Register of the boy’s birth ; (c) A certificate from the clergyman of the parish to which the boy belongs, or from the minister of his denomi- nation, or from the master of the school at which the boy has been educated 262 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. as to his character and moral conduct. The services of the father upon which the claim is founded will be ascertained at the Admiralty, and due notice will be given without further application, should the child be selected for admission into the School. Boys are eligible for admission between 10 \ and 13 years of age ; they must be physically fit for sea service, able to read an easy sentence, and possess a knowledge of the first four rules in arithmetic. Applications will not be received until the Candidates are 10^ years of age. Boys will be discharged from the General Division on the first day of the month succeeding that in which they shall attain 1 3 years of age, unless they volunteer, with the consent of their parents or guardians, to enter the Royal Navy as boys, in which case, if they are reported physically fit, they will be retained in the School until 15 years of age, and then entered for continuous service in the Royal Navy. Vacancies, occasioned by boys un- willing or unfit to serve in the Royal Navy, will be filled up by selection from the sons of seamen and marines who are 13 years of age, fit and willing for service in the Royal Navy, and able to pass a sufficient Examination in reading, writing, and arithmetic. Applications for admission of boys at the age of 13 must be made six months previously, in the same manner as above directed, and the parents or guardians must sign an agreement before the boy is admitted, that he shall serve in the Royal Navy for a period of ten years’ continuous and general service from the age of 18, in addition to whatever period may be necessary until he attains that age, otherwise that he shall be bound apprentice in the Merchant Service for four years, and enrolled in the Royal Naval Reserve. The Nautical or Selected Division will consist of 120 boys, who will be entered from the General Division by competitive Examination. At the age of 13, the boys in this Division of the School will be required to enter into an agreement, jointly with their parents or guardians, to enter the Royal Navy at the conclusion of their tuition, in such capacities as they may be found best qualified to fill. If they then be reported physically fit, they will be retained in the School until 15| years of age, otherwise they will be discharged. Should there not be a sufficient number of boys qualified to fill the positions of pupil teachers, writers, and ship stewards’ boys in the Royal Navy, from the Selected Division, boys from the General Division, who may volunteer, and who are able to pass the necessary Examination, will be appointed as may be required. The education of the boys in the General Division will com- prise the usual elements of a sound English education, alternating with practical seamanship, and other industrial occupations designed to prepare them for a seafaring life. In the Nautical Division, elementary mathe- matics and mechanics, navigation, nautical astronomy, and French will be taught. A thorough knowledge of the art of swimming being one of the requirements for entry into the Royal Navy, all boys in the School will be taught to swim, and be periodically examined as to their proficiency. Children of Roman Catholics, or of Protestants not being members of the Church of England, will not be required to learn the Church Catechism, and will be allowed to attend convenient places of public worship in accord- ance with the religious persuasions of their fathers, provided application be made to that effect at the time of admission, by the father, if living ; and if the father be dead at the time of the child’s admission, then the marriage certificate of the parents, or baptismal register of such child, according to the rites and ceremonies of any established religious community of a date previous to the said father’s death, will be received as evidence of the religious tenets of the father ; that is, provided no authentic document OUR NAVAL SCHOOLS. 263 written by the deceased father be produced, expressing a contrary wish or direction as regards the religious instruction of such child.

It owes its origin to the sentiments of humanity and benevolence exerted in behalf of a number of wretched and distressed boys, who at the suggestion of an individual nobleman were in the spring of the year 1756, collected together by that active Magistrate, Sir John Fielding, clothed at the expense of the Duke of Bolton, and sent to serve on board His Majesty’s Ship “Barfleur,” then under his Grace’s command. One hundred and twenty years have passed since the Marine Society began its work of taking these poor boys from the streets, and training them for the service of their country at sea. During all these years the work of the Society has steadily progressed, until now the number sent to sea has reached 58,466, and in place of the little “ Beatty” with her crew of 40 boys, — the first training-ship that ever floated in English or any other water, — the noble line of battle-ship, “Warspite,” lies moored at Woolwich with 300 boys on her decks. The ship lies off Charlton Pier, a few miles only down the river ; she is always open to friends, and there are few more interesting sights near the metropolis than that which a visit to the “ Warspite ” affords. The age for boys on admission is from thirteen to sixteen, height from 4 ft. 8 in. ; and the general system of training is, as far as means will allow, the same as that practised in the Royal Navy. In addition to the ordinary seamanship instruction and swimming, the boys are taught the great gun exercise, rifle and cutlass drills — a point of much importance, as laying the foundation of their fitness eventually for joining the Royal Naval Reserve. Ninety-three boys learned to swim last summer. The utility of this humane design, in rescuing from misery and reclaim- 264 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. ing as many as possible of this class of neglected youths from the paths of idleness, and too probably of infamy and perdition, was so obvious, that the plan was immediately followed up by the most active philanthropy by Mr. Walker, of Lincoln’s Inn, who had accidentally met with those lads on their way to join the “Barfleur.” By subscription which he promoted, from three to four hundred boys were in a short time clothed and provided for, in a profession most likely to make them useful and creditable members of the community. From the establishment of this Institution in June of the year 1756 to the close of the War 1763, the Governors of this Society clothed and fitted out for the sea service the following number : — Boys for Her Majesty’s Ships, and for the Merchant Service ... 5,174 From May, 1769, to the 31st December, 1876 — Sent into the Royal Navy ... ... ... ... ... 26.950 „ „ Indian Navy ... ... ... ... ... 3,760 „ „ Merchant Service ... ... 22,582 The total number of boys fitted out since the commencement of the establishment in June, 1756, to 31st Dec., 1876, is ... 58,466 Number of Landsmen to whom a bounty of sea- clothing was given by this Society (on condition of their serving on board ships in the Royal Navy) from the first establishment of the Institution in June, 1756, to the year 1814 39,360 Total Number ... ... ... 97,826 The great advantages accruing to the public from this benevolent Insti- tution, in every view of its policy, humanity, and charity, and its importance to the country at large, as well as to the forlorn destitute beings who are its primary object, are so obvious, that the Author of this book hopes the space he has devoted in giving a full official account of the Society may induce many new patrons to give it the benefit of their support. The total number sent to sea since the Marine Societv placed the first training ship on the river is 59,400. These poor or destitute boys have been trained and sent to sea. An amount of good work has thus been accomplished in the face of many difficulties which needs no comment, so obviously useful is it to the country at large.

The difficulty experienced in providing properly qualified Officers for Merchant vessels induced several gentlemen interested in shipping to form an Association for the purpose of remedying in some degree this acknow- ledged deficiency ; and we have every reason to believe that valuable results, in a national point of view, are accruing from this undertaking. OUR NAVAL SCHOOLS. 265 The Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty, on being applied to, placed first the “Worcester,” a fine 50-gun frigate, which was fitted and opened for the reception of pupils on the 4th August, 1862 ; the “Frederick William,” 72 guns and 4,725 tons was afterwards, in 1877, substituted ; this vessel, however, retaining the name of the “Worcester.” She is moored off Greenhithe, Kent, and accommodates about 200 boys, who are trained for a seafaring life under an able Commander and Schoolmasters. The boys are taught practical seamanship, such as knotting, splicing, reefing, furling, heaving the lead, management of boats, swimming, &e., also navi- gation, and nautical astronomy, and besides the usual branches of a sound English Education, Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, Mechanics, Steam Engine, Marine Surveying, Freehand Drawing, Chart Drawing, and the French Language, are taught to all on board. Her Most Gracious Majesty the Queen grants two prizes annually for competition, and the Lords of the Admiralty present annually to the “ Worcester Cadets ” six commissions as midshipmen in the Royal Naval Reserve. Boys usually leave after two years’ training. The annual fees for admission in the Upper School for cadets from thir- ' teen to sixteen years of age are fifty guineas, and in the Lower School for cadets from eleven to thirteen years of age, forty-five guineas, and ten guineas per annum for Uniform, Medical Attendance, Washing, and use of School Books and Stationery. The year is divided into three terms. The Uniform consists of best blue jacket, waistcoat, trowsers, cap, and badge, also one pair second quality blue cloth trowsers and cap, and three uniform serge shirts* Thomas Brassey, Esq , M.P., distributed the prizes in 1878.

There is a complete and efficient nautical and educational staff maintained, by whom the boys are carefully and regularly instructed, and exercised in all the duties of a first-class ship, and receive a general education. Her Majesty the Queen has been pleased to declare her intention to present annually a Gold Medal to the b ys of the Conway. “ Her Majesty’s wish in the establishment of this prize is to encourage the boys to acquire and 266 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. maintain the qualities which will make the finest sailor.” Her Majesty has also been pleased, with a view to encourage boys of the Coyiway to qualify themselves for Cadetships in the Navy when granted by the Admiralty, to declare her intention of offering a prize annually to the boys who compete for Cadetships in Her Majesty’s service. This prize will consist of a Binocular Glass, with a suitable inscription, and a sum of 35 1. towards the expense of the outfit of the boy who obtains the prize. Ten appointments annually as midshipmen in the Royal Naval Reserve are given by the Lords of the Admiralty. The terms of ad- mission are 40 guineas per annum, payable half-yearly in advance. 10 guineas are also charged at the commencement of each year for the uniform and outer clothing, medical attendance, washing, use of books, and stationery. The parents or friends of boys are required to find their under-clothing and shoes. The sons of officers in the Royal Navy aie admitted at 30 guineas instead of 40 guineas per annum. No boys are received under the age of 12, or who have passed their 16th birth- day. In school all the pupils are under the 2 senior Masters and their Assistants. Their studies comprise English Grammar, Reading, Com- position, History, Geography, Writing,- Arithmetic, Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, Navigation, Nautical Astronomy, Swimming, and Chart Drawing. The holidays are from the 1st to the 31st of July, and from the 20th of December to the 3 1st of January.

In this newly classified section, referring to the Public Schools, many important leading Colleges and Schools in the United Kingdom have become, by their work and the number of the scholars, entitled to take rank with our more ancient institutions, hitherto known as the “ nine great Public Schools,” and these are now introduced into Part V. under the designation of “ Our Chief Public Schools.” For convenience of reference they are classified in alphabetical order, instead of being placed, as in previous editions, in accordance with the dates of their respective foundations. In making this selection the Compiler had three important points to consider : lstly, a certain permanence (£.£,, -such an endowment as might reasonably ensure the perpetuity of a school apart from its temporary success under a popular master) ; 2ndly, as regards the number of pupils, which would be an important element in entitling a school to a place among our “leading Institutions”; and 3rdly, that the course of instruction should be in strict accordance with a “ first grade” education. Great difficulty is necessarily experienced in “ drawing a hard and fast line” in this section of the work, as doubtless several important Schools now omitted might be included herein ; but, after consulting some of the highest authorities on the subject, to whose judgment and candour the Compiler feels deeply indebted, he has finally decided upon including only the twenty-four additional Schools now appearing ; nevertheless, the list is still open to revision in future editions, and he will at all times be pleased to know and consider the views of those interested in the subject. F. S. D. de C. B. OUE GEEAT PUBLIC SCHOOLS BEDFORD GRAMMAR SCHOOL, ST. PAUL’S SQUARE, BEDFORD. This School is one of the sixteen Grammar Schools licensed by letters patent of King Edward VI. in 1552. It was endowed by Sir William Harpur in 1566. The endowment meets about one half of the real cost of the education, the other part being defrayed by the fees. Under the new scheme approved by the Endowed School Commissioners, the old restrictions on the enjoyment of the piivileges of the endowment have been removed, and no previous residence is required. The School has lately been reconstituted under a new Governing Body, and there are at present about 450 boys in attendance. Participates in an endowment of over 15.000A per annum, to the extent of 4,800A There is (1) a Classical department, in which boys are regularly prepared for the Universities, and specially for the Indian Civil Service ; (2) a Civil and Military department, in which no Greek is taught, the extra time being given to Mathematics and Modern Languages. On this side boys are specially prepared for Woolwich and Sandhurst, under Mr. W. Seys Phillips, who is experienced in preparing for these examinations. Boys are admitted at or above 8 years of age, and it is recommended that they should enter as early as possible. Boys are only admitted at the begin- ning of term. 1. A form of application for admission (including a certificate of vaccination) should be returned to the Head Master, filled up and signed. 2.

Entrance Examinations are held on the first day of each term, at 10 a.m., in the Boarders’ Hall of the Grammar School. Boys above 10 will be expected to show sufficient proficiency to enter a form, the average age of which is not much above their own age. Proficiency in Mathematics, Modern Languages, Science, or English will compensate for deficiency in Classics. The Examination is not in any sense competitive, and allowance may be made for any special cir- cumstances. Day-boys pay from 9 1. (under 13) to \2l.

Itis endowed with an annual sum, deriyed from certain estates left in 1442 by John Carpenter, and is under the government of the Corporation and a Committee chosen by them. The foundation stone of the new buildings was laid in 1880 on a new site given by the Corporation, on the Thames Embankment, whither it was removed from Milk Street at the beginning of this year 1883, having been opened by H.R.H. the Prince of Wales on the 12th Dec., 1882. The object of the School is to furnish a liberal and useful education for the sons of respectable persons who are engaged in Professional, Commercial, or Trading pursuits, without the necessity of removing them from the care and control of their parents. Boys are admissible at any age between 7 and 15 years, and may remain until 19. The mode of admission is by an application according to a form obtained of the Secretary, which is required to be signed by the parent or guardian, and also by some member of the Corporation, either Alderman or Common Councilman. Members are not limited as to the number of recommendations they may sign. The qualifications for admission are a knowledge of Arithmetic, as well as Beading and Writing.

Motto : “ Deo dante dediT This celebrated School was founded by Thomas Sutton in 1611, and prior to 1872 was conducted in buildings situated in Aldersgate Street, City ; it was erected on the foundation of the Chartreux monastery (Charter House Square), by Thomas Sutton in the reign of James the First, anno domini 1611, and a well- endowed Hospital was founded in connexion with it, for 80 old men. The entire endowment was shared between the School and the Hospital, and the whole was under the control of a body of governors and trustees. Great changes, however, have been effected in the constitution of the School by the Special Commis- sioners appointed for the purposes of “ The Public Schools Act in 1868,” and the Governing Body now consists of — The Archbishop of Canterbury for the time being as an ex-officio member, and of the following elected members, namely — One member to be elected by the Hebdomadal Council of the University of Oxford ; one member by the Council of the Senate of the University of Cambridge ; one member by the Senate of the Uni- versity of London ; one member by the President and Council of the Royal Society ; one member by the Lord Chancellor for the time being ; one member by the Lord Chief Justice of England for the time being ; one member by the Head Master, the Second Master, and the Assistant Masters of the School for the time being ; three members by the Governors of Sutton’s Hospital in Charterhouse for the time being ; four members in the first instance by the Governors of Sutton’s Hospital in Charterhouse. By the new statutes “the Governors” shall mean “the Governors of Sutton’s Hospital in Charterhouse;” “The Governing Body” shall mean “The new Governing Body of Charterhouse School “The School Fund” shall mean “ The annual Moneys paid by the Governors to the Governing Body ;” “ The Tuition Fund” shall mean the moneys payable and received for tuition of the boys in the School; and “School Exhibitioners” shall mean “ the holders of Exhibitions tenable at the School. The number of boys in the School may not exceed 500. There are 292 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. upwards of 487 .pupils now in attendance, who are instructed in Classics, Mathematics, Arithmetic, Natural Science, English History, Geography, French, and German. The religious instruction is that recognised by the Church of England, but a boy may, on conscientious grounds, claim exemption from this. The Scholars of Charterhouse are the Foundation Scholars, the day boys and boarders, the boarders forming the chief element in the School ; and they are lodged and boarded in the School buildings or in the Masters* houses. All the Foundation Scholarships are assigned by competitive ex- amination, none are given by nomination. There are 30 Junior Scholarships, of the value of 651. per annum each, open to Foundation Scholars ; these Scholarships are tenable only during good behaviour. The conditions of admission and continuance in the School of boys not on the Foundation are as follows : — No boy is admitted before the completion of the 11th year, or after the completion of the 15th year of age, unless there be special reason, approved by the Head Master, for departure from these limits. It is required for admission that a boy shall be able to take a position in the School corresponding to his age. Testimony of good moral character is required. Boys may remain in the School till 16, 17, 18, or 19 years of age, according to progress and character. Application for admission is to be made to the Head Master With regard to Scholarships and Exhibitions, there are not less than 60 Scholarships tenable at the School. Of these 30 are Junior Scholar- ships, and are open to all boys between 12 and 14 years of age, 'whether in the School or not. The Examination is in Latin, French, English, and Arithmetic. These Scholarships are of the annual value of 651., and are tenable till the end of the 16th year, or till election to a Senior Scholar- ship. Senior Scholarships are open to all boys between 14 and 16 years of age, who shall have been at least one year in the School. These Scholarships are of the annual value of 8 51. The Examinations for these Scholarships take place in the latter half of July in each year. There will be 1 0 Exhibitions of the annual value of 20£., open to all boys in the School under 14 years of age. These will be tenable till 16, and may be held con- jointly with Junior, but not with Senior Scholarships. There are annually 5 Exhibitions for boys leaving School. These are of the value of 80£. per annum, and may be held for four years, at one of the Universities or else- where, in preparation for any profession or occupation, subject to the approval of the Governing Body. These are thrown open to the whole School. A large number of boys go up for Woolwich, Sandhurst, and the Line examinations, direct from this School.

This well-known and excellent College was founded by a Proprietary in 1840, and consisted of 650 shares, which entitle the possessors to nominate one pupil for each share, but no pupil can be admitted without the sanction of the Council ; and it was established in order to provide a classical, mathematical, and general education of the highest order on moderate terms, in strict conformity with the principles and doctrines of the United Church of England and Ireland — religious instruction forming a regular part of the teaching of each class. Full preparation is afforded to Candidates for admission at Sandhurst, or for direct com- missions, and pupils have been very successful at these various Exami- nations, and without having had to resort to the assistance of a “ crammer.” This is the (i Modern Department,” viz. , a Military and Civil Depart- ment, which was organised under the superintendence of the Rev. T. A. Southwood in 1843, who resigned the Head -mastership in 1879. He originally wished it to be a purely Military School. The School is divided into three Departments, the “ Junior,” the “ Classical,” and the “ Military and Civil ; ” and the system at Cheltenham is this : There is first of all a “lower school,” for junior boys — comprising, perhaps, about 150 pupils ; above this there are two Departments of about 300 boys each. One of these is the “Classical,” the other the “Modern” Department above alluded to. In the Classical Department, the staple of instruction is lan- guage in one form or another, with a larger admixture of other subjects than is common at most of our public schools. In the Modern Depart- ment the staple is mathematics, while the languages, and drawing of all kinds, fortification and surveying, occupy an important but a secondary position. The boys begin with the ordinary elements of English work, with Latin, French, and Mathematics, but with no Greek, which is not intro- duced into the regular system. As the pupils work up, and arrive at the three or four head classes of the School, they frequently drop Latin and OUR SCHOOLS ANI) COLLEGES. 294 take up German or Hindustani ; they also enter upon Physical Science (Chemistry, Geology, Electricity, Heat, and Magnetism), increasing their mathematical knowledge and the study of English scientifically, with a great deal of English literature and English history. A real education is imparted, so that but little special preparation is required for passing the necessary examination for Woolwich ; indeed, it is. simply moving into the senior form of the School, and no special preparation at all is necessary with regard to entering Sandhurst, unless a boy is exceptionally backward. Pupils for the Indian Civil Service are prepared in the Classical side ; boarders and day boys are received. The expense of a boy’s education at Cheltenham is as follows : — The minimum charge for education in the several departments (including subscriptions to sanatorium, gymnasium, playground, and library, and seat in chapel) is as follows : in the Junior Department, for boys under thirteen, 19 l. Is., and for boys above thirteen, 23 l. 2s. ; in the Classical Department, 23 l. 2s. ; and in the Military and Civil Department (including Drawing), 2 11. 6s. per annum. Extra charges are — in the Classical Department, 5 l. for special preparation for India Civil Service ; and 4 l. 4s. each for Drawing and Physical Science. In the Military and Civil Department, for Physical Science, 41. 4s. ; and in the Junior Department, for Drawing, 41. 4s. The College has now a Swimming Bath of its own, the use of which is confined to the boys, the masters, and old collegians. The subscriptions for boarders is 12s. a term. Day boys, masters, and old collegians are admitted by ticket. The College has also erected Workshops, the use of which is optional, the charge being 11. a term. No other extras, except for books, instruments, and stationery. The tuition fee (including gymnasium, playground, and library subscriptions), and that for a seat in chapel, must be paid terminally in advance. The instruction is on Church of England principles. Pupils are also prepared for the University, as well as for Civil, Military, and Indian Competitive Examina- tions. There are about 650 boys, of whom 450 are boarders, paying 50 l. to 60Z. per ann. for board, the tuition fees being 187. to 28 l. per ann. more. Scholars are admitted upon the nomination of a proprietor, or of the Council ; if of the latter, they pay 01. per ann. extra. The scholars vary in age from 8 years old upwards. There is an election to 12 Scholarships yearly. There is one Exhibition of 3 51. per ann., tenable 3 years, at Trinity College, Oxford, and 4 Junior Scholarships of 25 l. per ann. each, tenable at Cheltenham College for three years, and 2 Senior Scholarships of 7 01. each, tenable during residence, besides being entitled to compete for certain Gloucestershire Scholarships at Pembroke College, Oxford. There are also various prizes. Vacations. 14 weeks. The following Boarding Houses are now open for the reception of pupils, under the sanction of the Council, viz. : — J.

Sometimes called the Blue Coat School. This grand institution was founded by Edward VI., 1552. It was in 1545 that, upon the recommendation of Sir Richard Gresham, Mayor, Henry VIII. granted the ground and buildings of the monastery of the Grey Friars with the hospital of S. Bartholomew, and in Edward VI. *s reign 3 hospitals were established by the Charter, 1 being Christ’s Hospital, for the educating and apprenticing of children ; about 340 children were then in attendance, the dress at that time being of russet cotton. The school possesses little or no income under the Charter. The endowments are now in great demand chiefly from legacies and donations given at different periods of the school’s history. The yearly income is supposed to be larger than that of any other Foundation School in England, and it is estimated to exceed at the present time 70,000Z. The Governing Body consists of a long and influential list of persons, in whom election to the Foundation is vested. There is a branch establish- ment at Hertford, which is the preparatory school, and all boys are sent there at first, and are transferred according to their progress to the London establishment. They have to pass an entrance Examination. A thorough Classical and Mathematical education is given. A Mathe- matical education to fit boys for entering the Navy and Mercantile Marine, to those on the Mathematical Foundations. A Commercial OUR CHIEF PUBLIC SCHOOLS. 297 education for boys who show no aptness for Classical study, or who are not likely to enter senior classes of “ Grecian” and “Deputy Grecians,” or to compete for the annual University Scholarships. The pupils are lodged in the dormitories, and take their meals in hall, and are not permitted to leave the school except on “ leave days,” without special permission of the Masters or Warden. The Exhibitions to the Universities are provided out of the Hospital’s Exhibition Funds. With regard to the existing regulations relative to the presentation and admission of children into this Hospital, the principal requirements are briefly that children must be presented when between 8 and 10 years of age, and must be free from active disease, as well as from any physica defect which would render them unable to take care of themselves ; that their parents (if one or both be living) have not adequate means of educating and maintaining them, and that the children have not such means of their own. A written statement — showing the amount, or average amount, of the parental income, with particulars of its source or sources, the total number of children in the family, and of these how many are still young and dependent, and any other relevant circumstances— is in each case required to be made in the petition on the form of “ Presentation,” for the consideration of the Court or Committee of Governors, who have the power to reject any case which they may not deem a proper one for admission to the charitable advantages of the institution. The form of presentation is to be obtained from the indi- vidual Governor presenting, and the child’s name in full is to be inscribed therein in the handwriting of such Governor, with a state- ment of his conscientious belief that the child so presented is a proper object for admission into this Hospital. Certificates of the parents’ marriage, and of the child’s birth and baptism, must in all cases be pro- duced before the child’s admission, and be permanently deposited at the Hospital, with the presentation. When a child is brought to the counting- house with a view to admission, after the completion and deposit there of the presentation and all other necessary documents, the personal attendance of the parent (if living) is required, to answer any further inquiries the Court or Committee may think proper to make as to the pecuniary or other circumstances of the case. All children are required, as a preliminary to admission, to pass an Examination as to their attainments ; such Examination being graduated according to age. Admissions of children take place at meetings of the Governors held in February, March, April, May, June, September, October, and November (no admissions in January, July, August, or December). A general list, containing the names of all the Governors, but not indicating their turns for presentations, is published at the Hospital’s counting- house, at a charge of 2s. 6d., and can be procured at any time. A list of the Governors in turn to bestow presentations is likewise published there, usually about the middle of March in each year. Head Master . — Rev.

This School was originally a Proprietary College, and was founded in the year 1862, and incorporated by Royal Charter in 1877 . By this Charter some important changes in its constitution have taken place. Formerly the shareholders of the Company had the right to alter the position and powers of the Head Master, and change the School arrangements, to divide the income in dividends, and even to dissolve the Company, put an end to the College, and sell the buildings. But the Charter fixes all important matters without any power to alter them, and preserves all the funds for College purposes. Under the Charter the College is a Public School, open to all boys without distinction, instead of being, as formerly, restricted to a class. The religious teaching is to continue to be in accordance with the Church of England, but a conscience clause is now added. The members of the College under the Charter are the life governors, who elect the governing body (the Council) to manage the affairs of the College. The present life governors are the late shareholders in the Company. Pupils are prepared for the Home, Indian, Civil, or Military Service; also preparation for the Universities of about 600 pupils who have been nominated for ad- mission by life governors or the Council, are at present receiving instruction. The tuition fees are 2 51. per annum, and the boarding fees from 60Z. to 72 1. per annum. The instruction in the Junior School comprises an elementary knowledge of Latin, Greek, English, and Arithmetic, and the College is divided into three other departments, viz., the Classical, the Modern, and the Military and Engineering. The Classical side has special reference to preparation for the Universities. In the Modern Department the instruc- tion consists of Mathematics, Physical Science, Latin, Modern Languages, and English in all its branches. The Military and Engineering Department is devoted specially to preparing boys for the Royal Military Academy, Woolwich ; for Sandhurst, the Indian Civil Engineering College, the pro- fession of Civil Engineering, or for direct commissions in the Army. Practical instruction is given in Chemistry and Physics. The teaching OUR CHIEF PUBLIC SCHOOLS. 299 of Physical Science occupies a prominent place in the curriculum of studies. There are two laboratories, and a botanical garden and a workshop, and the subjects of Chemistry, Experimental Physics, Natural History, Botany, Zoology, and Physical Geography are taught, under the superintendence of four Masters. There are several Scholarships, varying from 25Z. to 90 1. a-year, tenable in the School, and there are also Exhibitions tenable at the Universities. There is an Engineer Cadet Corps composed of members of the College. There is a Preparatory School, the object of which is to give a thorough and suitable grounding to little boys before proceeding to the Junior School. For this purpose, the numbers are limited to about fifty boys. The School is kept entirely distinct from the College, both as regards teaching premises and arrangements for play ; but at certain hours the boys have the separate use of the College gymnasium and baths, with due su- pervision and instruction. Boys are admissible at the age of seven years, and may remain till eleven, if the Head Master approves. About thirteen weeks’ vacation in th© year, the holidays commencing in July being the longest. Boarders are taken by the Head Master, the Rev. T. E. Brown, Mr. Oakeley, the Rev. H. J. Wiseman, the Rev. H. C. Watson, and Mr. Bar- tholomew. Boys in the Junior School are boarded with the Rev. B. Hartnell, Rev. P. A. Phelps, and in the Preparatory School with Mr. Locke. These are moved into the other houses as they become old enough. The Head Master can arrange for the boarding of a limited number of delicate boys, or of applicants for whom there is no vacancy, in a large house, with Mr. Grenfell or Mr. Tait. He also undertakes to make arrange- ments for the boarding of boys during the vacations, should the parents express a wish in writing to that effect. About 650 pupils are at present in this School.

Dulwich College was founded in 1619, by Edward Alleyn, under letters patent of King James I., by which licence was granted Alleyn to establish a college “ to endure and remain for ever,” and to be called “Alleyn’s College of God’s Gift at Dulwich.” The Manor of Dulwich — which constitutes the most important part of the endowment of the college — was purchased by Alleyn in 1606, from Sir Francis Calton, to whose ancestor, Thomas Calton, it had been granted by Henry VIII., on the dissolution of the Monastery of Bermondsey. The college was re-constituted by Act of Parliament in 1858. Dulwich College is a day-school on the system of the other principal London schools ; but boys attending the college, otherwise than as day-boys from their own homes, are allowed to board in one or other of the authorised boarding-houses attached to the college. In the summer term of 1883 there were 500 day-boys and 46 boarders in attendance. The ordinary subjects of instruction are — Divinity, the English, Latin, and Greek languages and literatures, arithmetic and mathematics, history and geography, natural science, French and German, drawing, vocal music, drill. Application for the admission of any boy must be made to the Master of the College by the parent or next friend, on a form provided for that purpose, and no boy is admitted under the age of ten years. Candidates for admission are required to pass an entrance examination, which is graduated according to the age of the boy, but never falls below the following standard ; that is to say, Reading, writing from dictation, sums in the first four simple rules of arithmetic, with the multiplication table, outlines of the geography and history of England, the translation and parsing of simple Latin sentences. One term’s notice of the intended withdrawal of a boy is required to be given to the Master of the College. The College Fees. — All boys, including boarders, pay an entrance fee of 1Z., and tuition fee of 21 1. per annum. These fees are due in advance, and are paid to the College Bankers in accordance with printed instructions forwarded at the beginning of each term to all parents by the Clerk to the College Governors. The Boarding Houses. — All boys attending the College must reside OUR CHIEF PUBLIC SCHOOLS. 301 with their parents, guardians, or near relations, within degrees to be determined by the College Governors, or in some Boarding House con- ducted under regulations made by the College Governors. No boy not so residing will be admitted to the College without the special permission of the College Governors. The Boarding Houses, as at present authorised, are those of the Rev. G. Voigt, M.A., Sydenham House, Dulwich ; E. M. Everett, Esq., M.A., the Blew House, Dulwich Common ; Mrs. Dryland, Elm Lawn, Dulwich Common ; Miss Field, Plasgwyn, Dulwich. The charges for boarding (excluding the College fees stated above) vary from fifty to sixty guineas a year. The amount of about 1,00(V. is devoted annually by the College Governors to maintaining Scholarships tenable by boys while at the College. Ten such Scholarships, of the value of 20 l. per annum, will be offered for competition in the present year. These Scholarships are tenable for three years, and the holders will be re-eligible at the end of that period. The amount of about 1,000Z. is devoted annually by the College Governors to maintaining Exhibitions of an annual value of not more than 75 l. each, tenable for not more than four years, at the Universities of Oxford or Cambridge, or any other place of higher education or pro- fessional training approved by the College Governors, and to be awarded to boys who are being, and have for not less than three years been, educated at Dulwich College. Hours of Attendance. — The hours of attendance are — Wednesday and Saturday, morning, 9 — 1 ; other days, morning, 9 — 12.30 ; after noon, 2 — 4. The vacations are approximately six and a half weeks in summer (in the months of August and September) ; four and a half w r eeks at Christ- mas ; twelve days in the month of April. Divine service is held in the College Chapel on Sundays at 11 a.m. and 7 p.m., and all boys have a right to seats. Dinner in Hall. — A dinner is provided daily in the great hall for boys who like to come, whether day-boys or boarders. Dinner tickets (either single or for the whole term) may be obtained at the College kitchens, at the following charges : — Terminal tickets, four days in the week, 21. 8 s. ; extra for Wednesdays or Saturdays, 12s. ; single ticket, Is. The Governors of this College have, on the recommendation of the Head Master of Alleyn’s School, decided to take temporary premises for the admission of 130 boys, in addition to those already attending the school. There are upwards of 170 names of candidates now on the books. This concession on the part of the Governors will, no doubt, be a great boon to the inhabitants of the neighbourhood, many of whom have for years been applicants for the admission of their sons. A scholarship is to be founded for Dulwich College boys for ever, to be called “ Canon Carver’s Scholarship.” During the quarter of a century that Dr. Carver was the Head Master he had succeeded in creating, from one school of twelve boys, a first grade school of 600 boys, and also a second grade school of 252 boys.

There is an endowment of 820Z. per annum, with 2 houses, and a scheme was sanctioned by H.M. in council for the sum of 3,000Z. per annum, to be appropriated to the expenses of the School out of the capitular funds transferred to the Ecclesiastical Commissioners in 1868. The education given in the School is the usual Classical education of Public Schools, and is designed to prepare for the University and similar Examinations. Greek is not taught in the two lowest forms. Boys, who are promoted from these forms may either continue the Classical course, or join the Modern side of the School. The education on the Modern side of the School is intended to prepare for the Civil and Military Services, and for Professional and Commercial Life ; it comprises Mathematics, Latin, French, German, English History and Geography, English Literature, Chemistry, and Physical Science, but no Greek. Boys are especially prepared for the Woolwich and Sandhurst Examinations. No boy can enter the School before he is 10 years old, nor after he is 15, except for special reasons to be approved by the Head Master. No boy can enter after he is 14, unless his knowledge of Latin is above that of the lowest form. Greek is not in any case required for the Entrance Examination ; but a knowledge of the main parts of Latin Accidence is required. A certificate of good character from the last School or Tutor will be re- quired before admission. The School has the privilege of attending the Cathedral Services on Sunday; it has also the use of the Galilee Chapel OUR CHIEF PUBLIC SCHOOLS. 303 of the Cathedral for a School Sermon on Sunday afternoon. A Chemical Laboratory. Museum, and Science Rooms, are in the course of preparation, and will be ready for use shortly. A large room, devoted to Drawing and Music, is attached to the School. There is also a Carpenter’s Shop, where boys may gain a practical acquaintance with tools in carpentry and the use of the lathe. The river flows immediately below the School buildings and grounds ; and there is excellent boating. No boy is allowed to join the boat club till he has passed the swimming test. There is a large and well-furnished School Library, to which all the boys of the School have admission under varying conditions. For cases of infectious or other sickness there is an excellent hospital entirely detached from the School, with Matron always resident. The year is divided into three terms. The Christmas holidays are five weeks, the Easter holidays are three weeks, and the summer holidays are seven weeks. Fees. — Board and washing, 51 guineas a year. Tuition : for clergy- men’s sons, 16 guineas a year ; for day-boys (who are laymen’s sons), 20 guineas ; for boarders (who are laymen’s sons), 22 guineas ; entrance fee, 2 guineas. The fees are paid terminally, in the proportion of fths each for the lent and summer terms, and fths for the autumn term. Drawing and Music and Carpentering are optional, and are charged as extras. Boarders are received in either the Head Master’s or the Second Master’s house. The charges in both are the same. Boys are admitted as day-boys, whose parents or near relatives are living in Durham or the immediate neighbourhood. A term’s notice is expected previous to the removal of a boy ; otherwise payment for half the term will be required. Scholarships and Exhibitions. — There are 18 King’s Scholarships, of the annual value of 39 1 . 9*., tenable at the School for four years, to which period a fifth year is, if required, added by the Dean. The Dean and Chapter fill up the vacancies every year, on the first Saturday after the 20th of November, by examination ; and any one under 15 years of age, whether previously at the School or not, is admissible as a candidate, provided always that his parents are not in wealthy circumstances. The following Scholarships and Exhibitions are attached to the School, at the Universities : — Six Exhibitions of 60Z. a year each, two vacant every year, tenable for three years at Oxford, Cambridge, or Durham, open to candidates who have been at Durham School for at least three years. Three Exhibitions (one usually vacant every year) of 30Z. a year each, at St. John’s College, Cambridge. Two Scholarships of 15 1 . a year each, founded by Dr. Hartwell, Canon of Durham, and tenable at any College or Hall at Oxford or Cambridge for four years.

Motto: — u Floreat Etona.” This celebrated School and College, the richest and most influential in England, is situate in the County of Bucks. It is only separated from Windsor in Berkshire by the river Thames. It was founded in 1441, by Henry VI., whose exemplary piety and devotion to learning earned for him the repute of being more fitted for the Cloister than the Court : for the erection of the necessary buildings, he provided funds from his own purse, and he framed a charter of foundation, and endowed it ; and in order that the College should not lack Scholars, and as an inducement to others to join it, he caused 35 of the Winchester boys to be transferred to Eton, the School bearing the name of “ The King’s College of the Blessed Mary of Eton.” It consists of a Provost, 7 Fellows, 70 Scholars called King’s Scholars, 2 Chaplains, 10 Lay Clerks, 12 Choristers, a Head Master, a Lower Master, and several Assistant Masters. The buildings comprise two quadrangles; in the first is a central statue of Henry VI. in bronze. The square is surrounded by the chapel, schools, and dormitories. The other quadrangle comprises the cloisters and library. The Chapel is situate on the south side of the quadrangle. The date it was built is uncertain, but the College buildings were erected about the year 1440. It affords education in Classics and Mathematics, and in French, German, Italian, Drawing, &c. The 70 Foundation Scholars, or King’s Scholars as they are named — only about 11 vacancies for those occur yearly, and for these, two hundred of the cleverest boys from our Private Schools annually compete. The school expenses of a “ King’s Scholar” are nominal (an “ Oppidan’s” amount to about 150/. per annum), and they are admitted after competitive examination, between 1 2 and 15 years old. The other Scholars, numbering about 880, and called Oppidans, are admitted from 10 to 14 years of age into the Upper School, upon application to the College Tutor. The annual expenses of an Oppidan frequently exceed 200/. Lodging at a Dame’s house is about 16/. a year cheaper than at a Tutor’s. The King’s Scholars are exclusively eligible to Scholarships at King’s College, Cam- bridge, but there are 16 other Scholarships, the total value being about 800/. per ann. The Newcastle Scholarships, founded in 1829, is considered the OUR CHIEF PUBLIC SCHOOLS. 305 blue ribbon of Eton, and King’s Scholars now prefer entering into the general University Competition for open Scholarships to Balliol and other Colleges, to competing for King’s. Eton has 40 benefices in gift, varying from 100Z. to 1,200Z. The Examinations are conducted by the Head Master. There are two classes of Scholars at Eton, one termed the “ Collegers ” or boys on the Foundation ; the other class are termed “ Oppidans.” Foundation boys are lodged and boarded in the College, and the “ Oppidans” reside and board in the Masters’ houses. The fagging system is still continued here, but in a very modified form. The following amended statutes for Eton College, as proposed by the Governing Body of the School, have been adopted in 1883 : — Statute 21, Section 2. — The election of Scholars to the foundation shall be held every year at such time in July as the Governing Body shall from time to time determine. Statute 23, Section 2. — No boy shall be a candidate for such Scholarship after election 1884 who on the day of election has not reached his 12th or has passed his 14th birthday. Statute 24. — After election 1884 a Scholarship on the foundation shall be tenable only until the end of the school time in which the scholar shall have completed his 19th year, except for special reasons to be sanctioned by the head master and by him forth- with reported to the Governing Body.” There are now 964 students at the College, including in the sixth form, 20 ; fifth form, 524 ; remove, 211 ; fourth form, 106 ; and third form, 3. The list includes a prince, a duke, 21 lords, three counts, five baronets, and 42 honourables. The Rev. C. 0. Goodford, D.D., is the Provost, and the Rev. John Dupius, M.A., Yice-Provost ; there are 15 Fellows, 2 Conducts, a Musical Instructor, a Steward of the Courts, an Auditor, and 50 Assistant Masters. The New Governing Body of Eton College are Rev. C. O. Goodford, D.D. (Chairman); the Provost of King’s College, Cambridge ; the Very Rev. R. Scott, D.D., Dean of Rochester ; the Rev. E. W.

It occupies the site of the old East India College. The number of boys in this School is about 400. It has been established for the education of the sons of the clergy and laity. The religious training is in accordance with the doctrines and formularies of the Church of England. The education is that of our best Public Schools, in Classics, Mathematics, and Modern Languages. The School is divided into Upper, Middle, and Lower School ; and also into Classical and Modern side. On the Classical side is given the usual education of a Public School, which looks chiefly to the requirements of the Universities and of the learned professions. The Modern side, which is limited in number to 100 boys, is designed specially to prepare boys for the public services (civil or military), or for civil engineering, but those who have no such objects in view are also admitted. In either case there is an entrance examination, in which boys must reach a certain standard according to age. The subjects of this examina- tion are, dictation, Latin and Greek grammar and construing, arithmetic, and French. On the modern side no Greek is required, but a thorough grounding in all the other subjects is expected. Pupils are boarded and lodged in the College buildings and an adjoin- ing house, called Hailey House. Pupils are admitted to the School from 12 to 14 years of age. No pupil can remain in the Lower School after 16, in the Middle School after 17, or in the Upper School after 18 years of age, except by the special leave of the Master. Upper Sixth Form boys OUR CHIEF PUBLIC SCPIOOLS. 307 can remain up to the age of 19. Every hoy on the Modern side is charged 21. 2s. per term extra, to cover the greater expense of education. Pupils not nominated are required to pay : sons of laymen, 7 5 guineas per annum ; sons of clergymen, 65 guineas per annum. Pupils, if nominated by life donors or donors, are required to pay : sons of laymen, 65 guineas per annum ; sons of clergymen, 55 guineas per annum. An entrance fee of 5 guineas is required from each pupil, on his admission, and there are extras for Music and Drawing. The average of the payments for a full year is 90/. There are five Exhibitions of 60/., 50 1., 501., 40 1., and 20 1. respectively, tenable for three years at Oxford or Cambridge, and in some cases elsewhere, open yearly for competition to members of the School who are under 19 years of age. One, or at the most two, may be given for proficiency in other than Classical subjects. Five Senior Scholarships, three of 40/., two of 30/., for boys between 15 and 16, and four entrance Scholarships of 30/. for three years, for boys under 13, are open yearly for competition. There are holidays three times a year : at Christmas, five weeks; at Easter, three weeks ; and in the summer, seven weeks. A boarding house has been added to the College, under the superintendence of the Rev. H. Couchman, M.A. Terms for the sons of clergymen are 95 guineas per annum ; for the sons of laymen, 105 guineas per annum. In this house all the boys have studies, in the College only the Upper Forms have them. Visitor . — His Grace the Archbishop of Canterbury.

Motto : “ Stet Fortuna Domus Harrow-on-the-Hill Grammar School, now known as Harrow School. — This now celebrated School is distant about ten miles from London, and its situation is an excellent one, commanding a view of Windsor Castle and the Oxfordshire hills. It is stated that in clear weather no less than thirteen counties can be seen from the top of the church tower. The founder of Harrow was a yeoman called John Lyon, born at Harrow, in the hamlet of Preston. Be took the deepest interest in education, and even when his resources were small he set aside a yearly sum to be expended in educating the children of the poorer classes. In the fourteenth year of Elizabeth’s reign, a.d. 1571, a charter was granted to “ the Keepers and Governors of the School called the Free Grammar School of John Lyon, in the village of Harrow-upon-the-Hill, in the countie of Middlesex.” The endowment is now about 1,1 00Z. perann., besides nearly 10,000Z. invested in consols for the purposes of Scholarships, Exhibitions, Prizes, &c. It affords instruction to about 500 boys, between 12 and 20 years of age of whom about 50 are home boarders, paying 45Z. , and the remainder boarders in a Master’s house, at rates varying from 113Z. to 180Z., including schooling, besides 16Z. entrance fees, &c. There is a separate day school called an English Form, which is attended by sons of Harrow tradesmen, paying 5Z. per ann., for Commercial course, including French. The Head Master enjoys, practically, the entire control of, and grants admission to, the School. His maximum income is 4,000Z. per ann. There are 2 Scholarships of 50Z. for 4 years, 2 of 30Z. for three years at Oxford, 1 of 60Z. for 3 years, 1 of 70 Z. for 3 years, and 1 of 100Z. tenable 4 years ; besides 5 Gold Medals, worth 10 guineas each, and numerous valuable Prizes in books. All but the first 200 boys in the School are liable to be fagged, excepting those who have fagged for three years. Half-holidays thrice a week. Vacations, 14 weeks. The Head Master’s house is a commanding and substantial edifice, with accommoda- tion for 64 boarders. The houses of the other masters who receive boarders are situate in the village, in the vicinity of the School. No boy can be admitted to the School until he has passed an entrance examination. Every boy at the School has a private tutor. The number of pupils at present exceeds 500, and under the government of the present Head Master no diminution in numbers can be anticipated, for this distinguished Public School retains its former power and prestige in the fullest vigour.

This most distinguished public school was originally founded for sons of the Clergy, and was established in 1843, and incorporated by Royal Charter in 1845 ; additional Charter, 1853. The College is divided into three Schools — the Upper, the Modern, and the Lower School. In the Upper School the education is chiefly intended as a preparation for the LTniversities. In the Modern School, the subjects of instruction are Mathematics, Latin, French, German, History (principally Modern), Geography, Natural Science, together with EngHsh Composition. There are special classes for the subjects of Examination at Woolwich. No boy is permitted to remain after the age of seventeen, if he has not reached - the Fifth Form of the Upper or the Modern School. The Lower School is preparatory for the Upper and Modern ; it is intended for boys between the ages of ten and fourteen. The Bible and Church Catechism form part of the regular instruction in all the Schools. A boy may at any time be transferred to the Modern School, provided he is sufficiently advanced in his studies for the Lower Fourth Form of the Upper School. The boys' attend service regularly in the College Chapel, and the Master holds the office of Chaplain. The whole annual charges for education and mainte- nance are, in the College, with a nomination, 80?. ; the annual charge for the education of the home -boarders, receiving education only, is, with a nomina- tion, 21 1. Pupils are admitted on the nomination either of Life Governors, who by the payment of 50 1. acquire the right of having always one pupil in the College ; or of Donors, who by the payment of 20?. acquire the right to a single nomination. Pupils are also admitted without a nomination on the payment of an additional 51. per annum in lieu thereof. There are twelve Exhibitions to the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge ; four vacant annually, worth 50?., 40?., 30?., and 30?., or somewhat less, a year YOL.

There are also two Exhibitions, of the value of 25 Z. and 20 Z. respectively, and tenable for two years at Woolwich, or such other place of education as the Master may approve, given annually to the members of the Modern School. The Examination for fifteen Foun- dation Scholarships, confined to the' sons of clergymen, is held annually in December. There is an election annually to two Senior Scholarships, open to all boys under fifteen years of age ; the annual value of these Scholar- ships is 50Z. each, and they are tenable so long as the scholar elected remains at the School. There is also an election annually to one House Scholarship of the value of 80 Z. per annum, tenable at one of the large boarding-houses so long as the holder remains at the School, and to six Junior Scholarships, of the value of 301. per annum each, open to boys under fourteen years of age, tenable for two years. There are also two Scholarships of the value of about 15Z. per annum each, founded by the late Dean Ireland, and open to sons of clergymen only. Also one of the value of about 17 Z. per annum, founded by the late Archdeacon Berens, open to the sons of clergymen and laymen alike. There is also a Scholarship worth 16Z. a year, confined to the sons of clergy- men who have served for five years as Missionaries or Chaplains in India. And two Scholarships, each of the value of 20 Z., tenable for one year, and confined to members of the Modern School. Two Scholarships called the “ Authors’ Scholarships,” tenable for one year, of the value of 1 5Z., for pro- ficiency in French and English, open to all members of the School below the Sixth Form. There are also a considerable number of annual prizes. The College buildings (exclusive of the Lower School) are divided into six portions, each of which is assigned to one of the undermentioned House Masters, who undertakes the immediate control and superintendence of the pupils placed under him, in all matters of education, discipline, and domestic arrangement, except board, with which the Bursar only is con- cerned. The number of pupils in the College, inclusive of house-boarders and home boarders is 580, 370 within the College, and 210 in the board- ing-houses. Of the 370 in College, 70 (sons of clergymen) are foundation scholars paying 50 Z. per annum, while the remainder pay 80Z. or 8 5Z., according as they have or have not a nomination. The terms in the boarding-houses vary between 9 5Z. and 110Z. The charge for ordinary private tuition is 6Z. per annum ; for preparation for any special examina- tion, 10Z. 10s.

This ancient and well-known Public School was founded in 1561, by the Merchant Taylors’ Company, and was rebuilt in 1875. It is supposed that Sir Thomas White, a member of the Company, and founder of S. John’s College, Oxford, was the original promoter, and he afterwards endowed the school with 37 Fellowships in that College. Another mem- ber of the Company, Richard Hill, gave 500Z. towards the purchase of the site. The first Head Master was Richard Mulcaster ; he was appointed on the 24th September, 1561. The original statutes of the school are most quaint in phraseology — they provide for the teaching of “ good and clean” Latin literature and Greek, “ if it maybe gotten” from the Head, called in them also the High, Master. This school is unendowed, and is supported entirely by the Worshipful Company of Merchant Taylors. About 500 pupils are in attendance, all day-boys. Presentations to the school are in the gift of the members of the Court of Assistants, and are generally issued on the first Wednesday in February, May, July, and November. The school is divided primarily into Upper and Lower ; and the Upper School into 2 divisions, called the Classical side and the Modern, side. In the Classical side are taught all such branches of knowledge as shall prepare pupils to enter the Uni- versities. The course of study embraces Latin, Greek, Hebrew, English, French, German, and Mathematics, and in certain cases Natural Science and Drawing. In the Modern side the subjects of instruction are Mathe- 324 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. matics, Latin, Greek, French, German, Natural Science, Modern History and Literature, Geography (including Physical Geography), Drawing, English Composition, Arithmetic and Mercantile subjects. A choice of subjects is allowed within certain limits, but as a rule only two lan-‘ guages can be learnt. The Lower School is preparatory to the Upper, promotions being made from the Lower School to the Upper School twice a year, according to individual proficiency. The half of Monday is, throughout the school, devoted to religious instruction. The school dues are an entrance fee of 3Z., and 12 guineas per annum, paid quarterly in advance, by boys in the Lower School, or 15 guineas per annum by boys in either department of the Upper School. This includes every charge for education except books. There is no boarding system directly recognised by the school, but boarders are received by the assistant Masters, and by other persons, with whom special arrangements must be made. No boy can be admitted into the school unless he is over 9 and under 14 years of age, and passes the Entrance Examination to the satisfaction of the Head Master. There are the following Scholarships and Exhibitions to the Universities attached to the school : — 21 Scholar- ships of 100Z. per annum, tenable for 7 years, under certain conditions, at S. John’s College, Oxford ; 4 Parky n Exhibitions of 90Z. for 4 years, to Cambridge, for Mathematics ; 5 Andrew Exhibitions of 86Z. per annum, for 5 years, tenable at S. John’s College, Oxford, for History and Modern Languages; 2 Stuart Exhibitions, 1 to Cambridge, of about 60Z., for 4 years, and 1 to Oxford, of 50Z. for 8 years ; 4 Company’s Exhi- bitions of 40Z., for 4 years to either Oxford or Cambridge ; 1 School Exhibition, of about 60Z., for 4 years, tenable at Oxford ; 2 Pitt Club Exhibitions, of about 30Z. for 4 years, tenable at Oxford or Cambridge ; and 1 Free Medical and Surgical Scholarship at S. Thomas’s Hospital. All boys who have been in the school 2 years are eligible to the 21 Scholarships at S. John’s College, Oxford, until the 11th of June pre- ceding their 19th birthday. Candidates for other School Exhibitions may in some cases have passed their 19th birthday, but must have been a certain time in the school, and attained a certain rank in it, and passed certain Examinations. There are 10 Scholarships awarded annually by competition to boys who have been at least 1 year in the school. 4 of these, called Senior Scholarships, are open to boys under 16, and are of the value of 30Z. per annum, and tenable as long as the holder re- mains in the school. One at least of these Senior Scholarships is awarded every year for Modern subjects. The remaining 6, called Junior Scholar- ships, are open to boys under 14, and are of the value of 15Z., tenable for 2 years, or until the holder is elected to a Senior Scholarship. The Examination for both Senior and Junior Scholarships is held on or about June 19th and following days. Examinations take place at Midsummer and Christmas. Examinations conducted by Oxford and Cambridge Schools Examination Board. The vacations are at Easter, August, and part of September, and Christmas, in all about 12 weeks. Head Master. — Rev.

The Laxton foundation dates from 1556. The Trustees, the Grocers’ Company, are accountable for only 300Z. per annum, according to a deci- sion of Lord Langdale in 1843, part of which sum is spent on the Laxton Almshouse for seven old men. But in addition to the Grammar School, now a Middle-class School, containing from 40 to 60 boys, they have established a First Grade Public School, already containing 185 boys, of whom 165 are boarders. The new Schoolrooms cost 15,000Z., and 30 acres of land have been purchased. New residences and boarding-houses for the Head and Second Masters, a sanatorium, etc., etc., are about to be erected. The tuition fee in the First Grade School is to be 151., reduced to 9 1. for natives of the locality ; in the Second Grade School 4 1„ reduced to 21. The charges for board are 55 1. and 50 1. There are at present four boarding-houses. The chief success of the School has been in preparing candidates for entrance Scholarships at Oxford and Cambridge, and the University honours gained by pupils since 1874 are remarkable. The course of studies includes Classics, Mathematics, French, German, Natural Science, and the usual English subjects. There are no extras, except books and stationery. There are no free scholars except 6, sons of Livery- men of the Grocers’ Company, boarders in the First Grade School, but 20 deserving boys in need of assistance have their fees reduced by 10L per annum.

This celebrated Public Schools was founded in 1512 by John Collet, D.D., Dean of S. Paul’s, and son of Sir Henry Collet, twice Lord Mayor of London. The school is, however, supposed to have been opened in 1510, and the Apposilino Book gives its dedication “ to the child Jesus,” a.d. 1509. The existing school buildings were erected about the year 1823. The school will shortly be removed to the Cedars estate, West Ken- sington, where a fine site has been secured. The Foundation gave gratuitous education to one hundred and fifty-three children of all nations and countries, each paying at his first admission, once and for ever, fourpence, “ writynge of his name ; ” each boy now pays one shilling on admission. The endowment consists of lands and tenements in London, and the income therefrom, including interest on Consols, is 10,000Z. per annum. The property was conveyed to the Mercers’ Com- pany, who take an active interest in the welfare of the school, and who, under the new scheme, still retain a large representation upon the Governing Body. Under this new scheme the constitution of the school will be as follows, and will comprise : — 1. A Classical school, to be called S. Paul’s School, for about 500 boys. 2. A modern school, to be called S. Paul’s Modern School, for about 500 boys. 3. A high school, or high schools, to be called Dean Collet’s School, or Schools, for not less than 400 girls in all. All the pupils are day- scholars, but boys are received as boarders in some of the Masters’ houses. All candidates for admission are expected to pass a preliminary Examination, graduated according to the age of the candidates ; and no boy is allowed to remain in the school after he has attained his 19th year. The fee for tuition in the school is fixed at 20Z. per annum. Each Governor has the privilege of nominating 1 candidate for admission every year. The course of instruction embraces Religious instruction, 332 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. and such instruction “ shall be in accordance with the principles of the Church of England.” In the Classical school are taught English, and Latin, and Greek Languages and Literatures ; Arithmetic and Mathe- matics, History and Geography, Natural Science, French, German, Drawing, and Singing. In the Modern school Greek is omitted. Scholarships and Exhibitions : — Foundation Scholarships : There are 153 scholars on the Foundation, who are entitled to entire exemption from school fees. Vacancies on the Foundation are filled up at the commencement of each term in accordance with the result of a Com- petitive Examination. Candidates must be between 12 and 14 years of age. Capitation scholars are admitted on payment of 20Z. per annum. School Exhibitions : The number and value of these are determined by the Governors from year to year. Keen Scholarship : This Scho- larship is of the value of 30Z., tenable for l year, given to a scholar proceeding to Oxford or Cambridge for proficiency in Mathematics. University Exhibitions : In the University of Cambridge there are the following Exhibitions : — 1. Five Exhibitions at Trinity, founded by Mr. Perry, in 1696, of the value of 13 l. a year. 2. Two Exhibitions at S. John’s, of the value of 10Z. a year, for the sons of clergymen, founded by Dr. Gower in 1711. 3. An Exhibition founded by Mr. Stock in 1780 at Corpus Christi, of the yearly value of 30?. Given to a scholar recommended by the High Master. 4. Four Exhibitions in the same College, value 10Z. a year each, founded by George Sykes, in 1766, consolidated now in 1 Exhibition, value 36Z. a year. There are also the following school prizes : — The Sleath Prize ; the Truro Prize ; the Milton Prize ; the Kynaston Prize. There is an excellent Library adjoining the school-room, and every year the High Master is allowed to add to the collection of books. The Mercers’ Company have purchased 16 acres of land at West Kensington, near Addison Road station, at a cost of something over 40,000Z. , and on this site buildings will be shortly erected for this celebrated school. The school is open to all. The numbers are increasing, and the staff of Masters has been doubled. The High Master’s house has been turned into class-rooms. There are now 163 boys in the school, and provision will be made for 1,000 boys in the new buildings to be erected. Of these 153 will be on the Foundation, elected thereto by open competition. The school is, and will remain, a day-school. The Governing Body are the Right Hon. Lord Selborne, 30, Portland Place, W., and 20 other members. High Master. — F. W.

OUR CHIEF PUBLIC SCHOOLS. 333 ROYAL SCHOOL OF ST. PETER’S, YORK. This School was founded in the reign of Philip and Mary, 1557, and has an endowment of 1,300Z. At present there are 170 pupils in attend- ance, 80 boarders and 90 day-boys. Upon the authority of the late Mr. Davies, a reliable York antiquary, Guy Faux was a pupil at this School, and Thomas Morton, Bishop of Durham, was also educated at this School. It is the Grammar School of the Cathedral Church of York, and is under the government of the Dean and Chapter.

Exhibitions. — One exhibitioner is elected annually in July, and is at liberty to proceed to any College of the Universities of Oxford, Cambridge, or Durham. Candidates must have been in the School for at least two years immediately preceding the examination, and must not have com- pleted their nineteenth year on the first day of January previous to the examination. The examination for the above Scholarships and Exhibitions is con- ducted by a Graduate or Graduates of one of the Universities, appointed annually by the Dean and Chapter ; and candidates are not eligible without a certificate of good conduct from the Head Master. The Lady E. Hastings’ Exhibitions. — These Exhibitions are ap- propriated to certain Schools in the North of England (of which St Peter’s School is one), each of which has the privilege of sending two candidates for each vacancy. Four or five of these Exhibitions are filled up in each year. The value of each Exhibition is 90Z. per annum, and all are tenable for five years. Each candidate must have been educated at the school from which he is sent for two years previously. The examination takes place at Queen’s College, Oxford, at which the successful candidate must enter ; and the Provost and Fellows are authorized to pay a sum not ex- ceeding 5 Z. to the six best unsuccessful candidates, for the purpose of defraying their expenses. The School year is divided into three terms. The holidays are twelve weeks in the year. At the end of the year there is a general examination of the School by the Head Master and other Masters ; and at Midsummer the School is examined by Examiners specially appointed by the Dean and Chapter. . 334 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES.

The School buildings, which are among the most beautiful in England, comprise the remains of the Benedictine Monastery, to which large additions have been made in recent years, the ancient style of architecture being preserved. Instruction is given to about 325 boys, 30 being day-pupils. A new scheme for the management of the school was settled by the Endowed Schools Commissioners in 1871. The object of the foundation remains as before, to supply a liberal education in accordance with the principles of the Church of England. The subjects of secular instruction” are prescribed to be — English, Latin, and Greek Languages and Literature, Arithmetic and Mathematics, Geography and History, Physical Science, at least 1 Foreign European Language, Drawing, Vocal Music. Boys are admitted upon the Modern side without Greek, provided they are sufficiently advanced in Latin, Mathematics, and French. Special provision is made for the preparation of boys for Woolwich, Sandhurst, and other public Examinations. There OUR CHIEF PUBLIC SCHOOLS. 335 is an entrance Examination, graduated according to age. The charge for tuition is 22 l. lOs., per annum, and an entrance fee of 2 guineas paid to the Building Fund. Boarders are received by the Masters, at the charge of 75 guineas a year, which includes tuition fees. There is a School Chapel, and the Head Master holds the office of Chaplain. There is at present 1 Exhibition vacant each year, of the value of 40 l. per annum, tenable for 4 years, at either University, for which all boys are eligible who have been at the school for the 2 years preceding the election. There are 10 foundation Scholarships paying the whole tuition fee, tenable for 2 years, the holder being re-eligible, and 3 old Shirburnian Scholarships worth 20 guineas, and tenable for 1 year ; the “ Houghton Cardew ” (15Z.), for encouraging the study of Scripture in the original languages ; the “ Leweston ” (10Z. in books), for Scholarship ; the “ Parsons,” of the same value, for Divinity ; the “ Lister (31.) for German ; the “ Digby Prizes,” for Modern subjects ; the “ King’s Medals,” for Classics and Mathematics ; and other smaller prizes.

This important and flourishing Public School was founded in the reign of King Edward VI., A.D. 1551, in order to supply the void caused by the dissolution of the Monasteries and of the Seminaries dependent on them, when the King granted the tithes of several prebendal livings associated with the two dissolved Collegiate Churches of S. Mary and S. Chad, for the endowment of a Royal Free Grammar School to be called the * Boarders are received in the Head Master’s house and in the houses of those Assistant Masters to whose name an asterisk is prefixed. 336 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. “ Libera Schola Grammaticalis Regis Edvardi Sexti.” Before the School could be opened King Edward died, and it was in abeyance during the reign of Mary, and was not actually opened until 1562, when Queen Elizabeth added considerably to the endowment in 1571 by the valuable tithes of the Rectory of Chirbury and other ecclesiastical property, at the suggestion of the first Head Master, “ the excellent ” Thomas Aston or Ashton, sometime Fellow of S. John’s College, Cambridge, who, during the short period of his Mastership, entered 875 scholars, amongst whom were Sir Philip Sidney, Fulk Greville (Lord Brock). Of Ashton’s pupils 238 only were town boys (oppidans), the rest are called alieni. The Right Honourable Gathorne Hardy, the distinguished statesman to whom the author dedicated this work in 1872, who was raised to the Peerage in 1878 with the title of Viscount Cranbrook of Hemsted, having held the important posts of Secretary of State for War and Chief Secretary of State for India, proceeded from this school to Oriel College, Oxford, where he w r as second class in Classics, and graduated B.A. in 1836, and was made an Hon. D.C.L. of that University in 1866. New and extensive buildings have been recently completed and opened. The site now occupied by the school premises was fixed upon by the governing body after much and anxious deliberation, and the 26 acres occupied by ft secure ample provision both for playing fields and increased house accommodation. The main school building stands, flanked on one hand by the Head Master’s house, on the other by the Chapel, at the top of a high bank overlooking the Severn where it leaves the famous Quarry Walk. The school boathouse is immediately below, and the view in every direction is picturesque in the extreme. . Near the southern boundary fence two masters’ houses have been built. The cricket-field, on which a considerable amount has alreadv 6 been spent, occupies a large space south and west of the school buildings, thus affording facilities for cricket and football on the one side of the site, as the river does for boating on the other. The endowment of this school is about 3,100Z. per annum. Instruction is given to about 120 boarders, whose total expenses vary from 90 1. to 120 Z. per annum each, and about 60 day-boys, who pay 211. per annum each. The school contains 15 sons of burgesses who are entitled to gratuitous education. Boys are admitted by Examination, under the direction of the Head Master, in Latin, English, Arithmetic, and other subjects taught in the school. The Examiners are appointed by the governing body. Any boy may be a candidate foi election on the founda- tion, who has not passed his 15th birthday, and all boys on the foundation have the instruction of the school free of charge. There are 3 vacations in the year, the school terms being of equal length. In 1798 an Act was passed by which the government of the school was vested in a body of 12 trustees, together with the Mayor of Shrewsbury for the time being. These trustees were to be possessed of a certain pro- perty qualification, and were required to be resident in the county of Salop. On the occurrence of a vacancy the remainder of the trustees were to elect three persons proper to fill it, and out of these the Corpora- tion of Shrewsbury were to choose one. The Mayor was to be the chair- man, and to have a second or casting vote at all meetings. The right of St. John’s College to appoint the head master was retained ; the prefer- ence formerly given to burgesses of Shrewsbury was done away with. The period succeeding the Act of 1798 is without doubt one of the OUR CHIEF PUBLIC SCHOOLS. 337 most remarkable in the history of the school. From the appointment of Dr. Butler to the headmastership in 1798, the number of boys rose steadily, but never reached a higher total than 300. The average number of Dr. Butler’s pupils was certainly under 200, of Dr. Kennedy’s pupils, from 1836-1866, not over 150. A comparison of these numbers with those of the other public schools will show that this school has been among the smallest. As regards the number of boys proceeding to the Univer- sities, in 1861 Shrewsbury took the 4th place (of the nine schools) at Cambridge, and the eighth at Oxford. In the course of the 20 years ending 1861, the school obtained at Oxford, in final examinations, four first classes in Classics, and two in Natural Science, and three first classes in Moderations, also three University Scholarships (Craven, Ireland, Here- ford), eight University prizes (poems and essays), and one Eldon Law Scholarship. At Cambridge in the same time they gained 27 first classes in the Classical Tripos, and 11 in the Mathematical Tripos, eight Chan- cellor’s medals, five University Scholarships, 15 Porson prizes, six Greek odes, and about 20 other medals and prizes. Within the same period 18 Shrewsbury men obtained College Fellowships at Oxford, of whom seven were engaged in the tuition of their colleges ; while at Cambridge 30 Fellowships were gained, and 14 of the holders were tutors or lecturers. The report of the Commission makes the following remark upon these facts : — The extent to which this small school contributes to the teach- ing power of the Universities is not a little remarkable.” The distinctions gained in the 20 years preceding 1811 were not less in number or im- portance. Since 1861, at Oxford five first classes have been gained in the final schools, 17 in Moderations, five University Scholarships. At Cambridge, in the Classical Tripos 30 first classes, in the Mathematical Tripos three, three Chancellor’s medals, 13 University Scholarships, 15 Porson prizes, 32 medals for Greek and Latin odes, poems, and epigrams. There have been besides many instances of honourable mention ip various competitions. In the present year the second and third in the first class of the Classical Tripos at Cambridge were alumni of Shrewsbury, as was also the winner of the Porson prize. Sixty-six Porson prizes have now been adjudged in all, of which 37 have been awarded to Shrewsbury men. The following subjects are taught — Religious Knowledge, Classics, Arithmetic, Mathematics, Natural Science, History, Geography, English, either French or German, and either Drawing or Music. Every boy is taught Natural Science. The boys attending Shrewsbury School consist of boarders and day-scholars. The former board with the Head Master and Senior Classical Master ; the latter live with their parents. There are 32 Exhibitions or Scholarships, to which boys from this school have a claim, varying in value from 107. to 637. per annum, tenable at Oxford and Cambridge from 3 to 8 years ; and 11 University Scholarships at Oxford or Cambridge have been gained by the school since 1868. Scholarships or Exhibitions open to all boys in the school, and tenable at any College or Hall in the University of Oxford or of Cambridge : 4 Ex- hibitions of 637. a year, founded by Dr. Millington ; 1 Exhibition of 607. a year, founded by the Rev. James Millington; 2 Exhibitions of 357. a year ; 2 Oswald Smyth’s Exhibitions of 367. a year ; 1 Exhibition of 237. a year, founded by Dr. Taylor ; 1 Exhibition of 407. a year, founded by Dr..

The arrangements in all these houses are similar, except that some houses have a certain number of private studies for the use' of those who desire them. For day-boys who reside at a distance from the School, for dinner in hall in a Master’s house, the payment is 51. a term ; for dinner and breakfast, 7Z. a term. The subjects of Instruction in the School are — Religions Instruction in accordance with the doctrines of the Church of England, the usual English subjects, Latin, Greek, Mathematics, Natural Science, French, German, Drawing, and Vocal Music. The School consists of the Lower School, comprising the three lowest forms. In these the instruction is the same for all boys, and consists chiefly of English, the elements of Latin and French, Arithmetic, the elements of Algebra and Geometry, Drawing, and Vocal Music. Above this, the Upper School branches off into two departments. The education given on the Classical side is such as is usual at Public Schools, and is designed to prepare for the University and similar Examinations. The education given on the Modern side is more special, and is intended to prepare for the Civil and Military Ser- vices and those professions, etc., which do not require a University degree. Boys who choose the Modern side omit Greek and Verse Composition, and devote the time so gained to German, English Literature, additional Mathematics, additional Natural Science, and Geometrical Drawing. In Latin, French, and all English Lessons, and in Mathematics, the two sides are classed together and work together, so as to preserve the unity of the School, and to give all an equal opportunity of rising to the highest positions. The names of boys of the Modern side are distinguished in the School list by being printed a little to the right. All Scholarships, Exhibitions, and other advantages of the School are open to them equally with boys on the Classical side. Army Class. — There is a special Military Class under Mr. Hilary, Mr. Berncastel, and Mr. Babington, for those who are preparing for the Army, Sandhurst, Woolwich, etc. Natural Science is taught throughout the Middle Division of the School, and in the Upper Division to those who desire it, — the boys in the Upper Division receiving, in addition to their class-work, practical instruction in Analysis in the Laboratories. The Governors have under consideration the erection of new laboratories, class rooms, and other buildings, as required by the new scheme. Regulations. — The boys attend in the School Chapel every morning and on Sunday afternoon.

Wellington College was founded in 1853, by Royal Charter, from ’public subscription raised in honour of the memory of the great Duke of Welling- ton, for the education of the sons of deceased Officers, who shall have borne commissions in Her Majesty’s Army, or in the army of the Hon. East India Company. Non -Foundationers are also received, and are eligible to all Scholarships. No distinction is observed in the College between Foundationers and non-Foundationers. Foundation. — None other but the sons of officers who, within five years of their death, had been either on full or half-pay, are eligible for admission on the Foundation. No boy can be elected to the Foundation below the age of 9 years, or above the age of 12. The age of the candidate is reckoned by the date of election by the Governors, and the election is in every case conditional on the boy’s passing the entrance examination. Boys on election are admitted into Preparatory Schools on passing the prescribed standards of examination. No boy can ordinarily be allowed to remain in a Prepara- tory School beyond the age of 12 ; nor, under any circumstances, beyond the age of 13 ; in the Lower School, 14 J ; Middle School, 16 ; Lower V. (Classical School) or Lower I. (Mathematical School), 17 ; and in the Upper V. and Upper I. beyond 18. No boy can remain in the School beyond the age of 19. Foundationers are elected by the Governors present at half-yearly meet- ings held for that purpose in March and June in each year. The charge for a boy on the Foundation is 10Z. a-year. The Royal Commissioners of the Patriotic Fund have the privilege of having always 18 boys of their nomination, sons of deceased Officers of Her Majesty’s Army, on the Foundation of the College, subject to a pay- ment of 51. a-year each boy. Boys are admitted as Non-Foundationers at 110Z. per annum. A limited number (not to exceed 80) are admitted at 80Z. per annum. These must OUR CHIEF PUBLIC SCHOOLS. 343 be the sons of Officers in the Army who, within five years of the boy’s admission, or of the Officer’s death, shall have been on full or half-pay. All non-Foundationers pay an entrance fee of 6 1 . Non-Foundationers are eligible to all the Scholarships. Boj t s cannot be admitted under the ages of 12, nor, unless in exceptional circumstances, over the age of 15, and a certificate of good conduct from his former master or tutor must be produced. All applications for admission of non-Foundationers are to be addressed to the Head Master , Wellington College, near Wokingham, Berks. All applications for admission on the Foundation are to be addressed to the Secretary to the College, Treasury, Whitehall, London, S.W., from whom particulars and forms may be obtained. The annual charge for each boy includes board and all branches of education. The payments for non-Foundationers are as follows : — For Lent Term 30 l., or 22 1. for those paying 80Z. per annum. For Easter Term 40 1., or 291. „ „ „ For Michaelmas Term 40Z. , or 291. ,, „ The sum charged for each boy must be paid in advance to the Bankers of the College, within fourteen days after the commencement of each Vacation. The religious worship and teaching are according to the doctrine and principles of the Church of England, but attendance on such worship or teaching will not be required of boys whose guardians may object on the grounds of religious dissent. There are three Vacations in the year — one of seven weeks, commencing on the last Tuesday in July, one of five weeks at Christmas, and one of three weeks at Easter. There are five open Scholarships every year ; the election is generally held in June. The following Junior Scholarships are open to boys : — 2 at 50 1. a-year each, tenable for 2 years ; 2 at 40 1. a-year each, tenable for 2 years ; and 2 at 30 1. a-year each, tenable for 2 years. These Scholarships are annually examined for in June ; and Scholarships open only to Members of the School under 16 years of age — 2 at 50Z., tenable for 3 years ; 1 at 40Z., tenable for 3 years ; also Scholarships open only to Members of the School , without restriction as to age — 1 at 50 1., tenable for 3 years ; 1 at 30 1., tenable for 2 years. The late Right Hon. the Earl of Derby, K.G., gave, in 1865, to Wellington College the sum of 1,350Z., being the amount of the profits up to that time of the sale of his Translation of the Iliad, in order to found an Annual Gift of 54Z. to be paid to the Foundationers, above 16 years of age, who have been most distinguished for industry and general good conduct. The School is divided into two Departments : 1. Classical and General ; 2. Mathematical. I. The education in the Classical Department is not limited to any special or professional purpose, but is classical and general upon the Public School system, comprising English, Greek, Latin, at least one Modern Language (French until the Fifth Form, after that German is added to or substituted for it), Mathematics and Natural Science. All these subjects form regular portions of the School- work, i.e. (1) they are all taught within the proper limits of School hours ; (2) they are encouraged in the same way, and pro- 344 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. ficiency in each of them advances a boy’s place in the School ; (3) none are extras in the School accounts. Boys are classified and taught in Mathe- matics, Natural Science, and Modern Languages according to their pro- ficiency in those subjects. Boys in the higher forms of this Department are supposed to be preparing for University Examinations ; i.e., either for entrance at the University, or for the “Leaving Certificate” given in the School Examination by the Oxford and Cambridge Schools Examination Board. II. The education in the Mathematical Department differs from that in the Classical mainly in these respects : : — 1. The amount of time given to Mathematics is largely increased, and that subject has the preponderating weight in deciding promotions. 2. Both French and German are taught simultaneously, and the time given to them is considerably increased. 3. Greek is entirely dropped, and Latin diminished. The purpose of this Department is mainly to prepare boys for Woolwich, and other Examinations in which special stress is laid on Mathematics, and which do not require Greek. Boys can enter either Department on their admission to the School, if there is room in a form suited to their age and capacity ; or they can be transferred from one to the other at any time subsequently, with six months’ notice, or at a shorter notice if there is room. If a boy is doing well in Classics, it is usually better that he should stay in the Classical Department till he has reached the Upper School. In any case it is strongly advised that boys should not be placed in the Mathe- matical Department until it is quite clear that the education in it is the one best adapted for their , future career, and that they have sufficient Mathematical aptitude to profit by it. Natural Science is taught regularly in both Departments of the Upper and Middle School. Drawing and Singing are taught to all boys in the Lower and Middle School, and boys in the Upper School have the opportunity of continuing them if they wish it. His Boyal Highness the Prince of Wales presided at a special meeting of the Governors held at Marlborough House on the 30th May, 1883, when the report of the Governors for 1882, together with the accounts, was issued as a parliamentary paper. The Governors state that during the year 1882 the average number of Foundationers being educated at the College was 80, the number on the 31st of December, 1882, being 81 ; that the number of non-Foundationers attending the College during the like period was 336, of whom 256 were admitted at the full rate of charge, and 80 were admitted at the reduced rate of 80Z. per annum. They further report that the number of boys on the foundation has been increased from 80 to 82. The accounts show that the expenditure on capital account up to the close of the year was 255,060Z. 15s. The revenue statement shows an income of 33,931Z. 10s. Id ., and an expenditure of 27,053Z. 3s. 8 d. ; balance, 6,878Z. 6s. 5d. The profit and loss account exhibits a balance of 62,550 1. 19s. Id.

PETER’S COLLEGE, WESTMINSTER. Little Dean’s Yard, Westminster. Motto. — u Dat Deus incrementum.” This ancient seat of education, which ranks among the first of the founda- tion Schools of England, and which has produced Scholars of the greatest eminence, was founded by Queen Elizabeth in 1560, for the free education of 40 Scholars in Latin, Greek, and Hebrew, in connexion with the Collegiate Church of S. Peter’s, Westminster. This was a Chapter School until 1868, then by Public Schools Act a separate corporate body. It affords instruc- tion to about 225 boys, 110 boarders and 115 day-boys. The Foundation 34<5 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. of Queen Elizabeth consists of 40 boys, called “ Queen’s Scholars.” The admission is by open competition to vacancies, which average 10 or more yearly, and are chiefly filled up at Whitsuntide in each year. The admission to the Foundation is dependent on proficiency. The Examinations for the Foundations are held between Christmas and Whitsuntide. There is no restriction in respect of birthplace ; but Candidates are by the Statutes required ordinarily to have been a year previously in the School. They must be under the age of 15 on March 25th of the year of admission, and usually remain 4 years in College before presenting themselves for election to the Universities. The Queen’s Scholars hold their Scholarships subject to an annual Examination, in which any Scholar failing to satisfy the Examiners of his industry and progress in study, may forfeit his place on the Foundation. The fixed expenses of a Queen’s Scholar are 30Z. annually, payable half- yearly in advance, at Whitsuntide and Christmas. This charge includes maintenance, as well as tuition in all branches of study, except those which are mentioned below as extra. For “ Town Boys,” or boys not on the Foundation, the school fees are 5 guineas entrance, and 30 guineas annually for tuition, also payable half- yearly in advance as above. These fees include all the ordinary instruction — Scriptural teaching, Classics, Mathematics, and Natural Science, History, Geography, English, French (or sonietimes German for advanced pupils), together with Drawing, Singing, or Writing, at the discretion of the Head Master. Private tuition, as well as fencing and gymnastics, are charged extra, if required. The age of admission is ordinarily from 10 to 14 years. No boy is eligible for admission unless he be sufficiently advanced, in proportion to his age, to profit by the teaching of the School. • “ Town Boys ” may board either wholly or partially at one of the boarding . houses, or entirely at home. For home boarders a room is provided at No. 1, Dean’s Yard, where for a small additional charge, books, great-coats, See., may be kept. The boarding-house fees are 5 guineas entrance, and 65 guineas yearly for boarders, or 24 guineas for half -boarders, besides tuition fees. The boarding houses, Nos. 1 and 2, Little Dean’s Yard, are at present conducted by the Rev. B. F. James and the Rev. C. A. Jones, and No. 14, Barton Street, by Rev. R. F. Dale. The school hours are ordinarily from 8 to 9 a.m., and from 10 a.m. to 12.30 p.m., and from 3.30 to 5.30 p.m. (from 3 to 5 p.m. in summer). Home and half-boarders who come from a distance are allowed to attend from 9 a.m. to 12.30 in the morning, instead of coming at 8 a.m. Wednesdays and Saturdays are half- holidays. The school holidays are 3 weeks at Whitsuntide, 7 weeks in August and September, and nearly 5 weeks at Christmas. The Grammars used in the School are the Public School Latin Primer and Grammar, and (for the present) Wordsworth’s Greek Grammar and Farrar’s Greek Syntax. In French, the School Grammar. Six Exhibitions, tenable at the School, are offered annually for compe- tition to Candidates (whether previously in the School or not) of ages between 12 and 14. Two are of the value of 30Z. and four of 20 1. raised to 50 1. or 30Z. respectively in the case of Boarders. These Exhibitions are all tenable for two years, or until the holder is elected upon the Foundation. A power is reserved of re-electing deserving Candidates. The Examina- OUR CHIEF PUBLIC SCHOOLS. 347 tion is held in Easter week. No entrance fee is charged for Exhibi- tioners.

Motto. — “ Manners make the Man .” This celebrated School has the honour of being the senior foundation in England. It was founded by William of Wykeham, and called Saint Mary’s College of Winchester, Anno Domini, 1387. It now consists of a governing body of twelve, a Warden, Sub- Warden, three Fellows, seventy Scholars, who live in the College buildings ; eight Exhibitioners, who live with the Commoners in the boarding houses ; a Head Master, a Second Master, twenty-two Assistant Masters, four Chaplains, three Clerks, one Organist, and sixteen Choristers. Average annual income, as returned to Public Schools Commissioners, 15,4942. 17s. 5c2. There are now over 70 Scholars, and 300 students not on the Foundation, called Commoners, eight of whom are also Exhibitioners. The Exhibitioners are elected annually after a competitive examination ; these examinations are held in the month of July. The Scholars on the Foundation of Winchester College are elected after a competitive examination. A Scholar is boarded, lodged, and educated, at a cost to his friends of 21 1. per annum. Besides the Scholars or boys elected on the Foundation, and who are lodged and boarded in the College, there are about 300 “ Commoners ” or non-foundation boys, who reside and are boarded in Masters 5 houses. The expenses of a Com- moner are about 106 guineas per annum. Winchester has numerous Scholarships at New College, Oxford, open to Scholars and Commoners, and tenable for five years, of the annual value of 802. There are also Exhibitions given to deserving boys, on their proceeding to the University. John Morys was the first Warden, in 1393. The Commoners are received in boarding houses, containing about thirty- five boys each. There are Exhibitions (at present eight in number) to be held by Commoners, each of the value of 502. per annum, to which boys under fifteen years are elected by competition at the time of the Exami- nation for the Scholarships. The Masters who keep boarding houses at present have an asterisk (*) to their names. Application for a boy’s admission as a Commoner will be most conve- niently made direct to the Master in whose house it is wished that the boy shall be placed ; or it may be made to the Head Master, who will then make the further arrangements. No boy is received after completing his fifteenth year (12 to 15), except under special circumstances, and on condition of his being able to take a good position in the School. Boys under that age are required to be quali- fied to join some class in the School. The grammars in use are the Public Schools Latin Primer and Words- worth’s Greek Grammar, and the course of instruction is as in all the other ancient Public Schools. There are holidays three times a year : at Christmas, five weeks, com- mencing on the Wednesday before Christmas Day ; at Easter, three weeks, commencing on the Wednesday before Easter Day ; in the summer, seven weeks, commencing on the Wednesday nearest to the 1st of August. I. The Scholarships of Winchester College are open to the competition of all boys who have completed their eleventh and not exceeded their four- OUR CHIEF PUBLIC SCHOOLS. 349 teenth year on the 1st of July preceding the election. An Examination graduated in difficulty according to the age of the candidates is held at the College annually in the month of July. The relative proficiency of the candidate, as exhibited in this Examination, determines the election. In cases of equal merit, the choice of the electors is influenced by the character of the candidates, and their pecuniary circumstances as stated in the decla- ration of their parents. II. The Exhibitions are open to all boys under fifteen years of age, whether already in the School as Commoners or not. These are of the annual value of 50 1. each, and are tenable during the whole of the Exhi- bitioner’s stay in the School, unless vacated by his subsequent election to a Scholarship, or by forfeiture on account of idleness or other misconduct. The Examination for the Exhibition is conducted at the same time as that for the Scholarships. III.

Richardson, Winchester College — must be accompanied by the following papers : — 1. Certificate of baptism. 2. Certificate of character and conduct, specifying the length of time to which it applies, from the Schoolmaster or Tutor under whom the candidate has been last placed. In the case of a boy who has been brought up entirely at home, the parents’ certificate of character is admitted. 3. A declaration signed by one of the parents of the candidate, or, if both parents be dead, by the person best qualified to give the necessary evidence. Forms of the declaration will be supplied on application to the Rev. G. Richardson, Winchester College Winchester. V. The candidates are examined — 1. In Elementary Religious Knowledge. 2. In English Dictation. 3. In Arithmetic, Algebra, and Geometry. 4. In Latin Composition, Verse and Prose. 5. In construing and parsing in Greek and Latin. 6. French Grammar, Parsing and Translation (easy passages). 7. The outlines of Geography and English History. YI. The Head Master shall have power to refuse the admission of any applicant if he judge it expedient. VII. No boy shall remain in the School after the end of the School half- year in wihch he shall attain the age of 16 years, unless he shall have been previously admitted to Middle Part Y. ; no boy shall remain in the school after the end of the School half-year in which he shall attain the age of 17 years, unless he shall have been previously admitled to Senior Part V.; and no boy shall remain in the School after the end of the School half-year in which he shall attain the age of 18 years. Under exceptional circumstances the Head Master may relax these rules, but in no case shall a boy remain in the School beyond the end of the School half-year in which he shall attain the age of 19 years. [For the purposes of this regulation the School half-year is considered to end on the 10th of January or the 10th of August, as the case may be.] VIII. Besides the subjects specified above, others not declared beforehand are introduced from time to time ; copies of questions set at previous elec- 350 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. tions are not issued, nor are the particular books in which the Candidates will be examined previously stated.

OUR THEOLOGICAL COLLEGES. INTRODUCTORY REMARKS. Undergraduates at our Universities, who, after having taken their Degrees, are aspirants for ordination, or any other Student desirous of entering the Church, and otherwise fitted for it, will have to retire to some College specially set apart for giving a more particularly theological training, there to be prepared, by quiet study and practical learning, for the serious and important duties of their future office. Respecting benefices, there are, it appears, from 287 livings of 1,000?. a year, and above, thirty-seven of 1,000?. a year, 185 between 1,000?. and 1,500, forty-three between 1,500?. and 2,000?., three of 2,000?., thirteen between 2,000?. and 3,000?., pne 3,000?., one 3,058 ?., and one 3,500?. The last three livings are Hawarden (Chester), Upwell (Norwich), and Ha-lsall (Chester). The Archbishops and Bishops have sixty-eight under their patronage, noblemen have forty-eight; Cambridge, fifteen ; Oxford, eight ; Lord Chancellor, five ; the Crown, four ; and the rest are in the gift of commoners, and a few belong to Dean* and Chapters. Some little time ago a proposal was started at Oxford for providing Students intending to take Holy Orders with a thorough theological training in Oxford itself, and “ S. Stephen’s House ” was specially set apart with that object. The entire cost, all found, amounts to 110?. per annum. But the number of Candidates for Bishop’s Ordinations who have availed themselves of the above advantages has hitherto been very limited, and there seems to be a general misconception that it is solely a missionary establishment, and men therefore prefer entering the various recognised Theological Colleges, full particulars of which institutions will be found fully described in the following pages ; and in addition to these Institutions the Student is also referred to the Theological Faculties or Departments of the different Universities. ♦ CAMBRIDGE PRELIMINARY EXAMINATION OF CANDIDATES FOR HOLY ORDERS. These Examinations were established chiefly with a view to aid in pro- moting a more systematic and a better distributed course of preparation for Holy Orders. They are conducted under the direction of Professors of Divinity and members of Theological Faculty, in co-operation with many TOL. I. 23 354 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. Bishops, and will enable Bishops to relieve their own examinations of some of those subjects by which the intellectual qualifications of Candidates are tested, and to give more devotional tone to the period immediately pre- ceding Ordination. But it has not been thought to be within the province of the Preliminary Examination to deal with such subjects as doctrine, pastoral care, and a general knowledge of Holy Scriptures. The Council of Management consists of the Divinity Professors, elected representatives of Theological Faculties, and Examining Chaplains, one being nominated by each of the Bishops who take part in the scheme. The Examiners must be either Graduates in Theology or M.A. in Priests’ Orders, and the examinations are held twice every year, about Easter and in October, and at different centres, with a view to suit the convenience of Candidates : due notice is given of the time and place. The examinations are open (a) to graduates of English Universities, ( b ) to members of Theo- logical Colleges in connection with the Church of England, who have at least entered on the last term of the complete course, and are recommended by the Principal, (c) to any other person who may be nominated by a Bishop, with a view to ordination in his own diocese. Every Candidate will be required to declare himself a member of the Church of England, and to produce a satisfactory certificate of moral character. All communications from candidates who are members of a Theological College must be made through the Principal or Vice-Principal of their College, and the names of candidates who satisfy Examiners are placed alphabetically in two classes. The following Bishops and Archbishops have expressed their intention of recognising the results of these examinations in their admission of candidates to Holy Orders : — Archbishops of Canterbury and York, Bishops of Winchester, Norwich, Worcester, Gloucester and Bristol, Hereford, Peterborough, Lincoln, Salis- bury, Carlisle, Bath and Wells, Ely, Truro, and Durham. The papers given in previous examinations, with the regulations, may be had of Deighton, Bell, and Co. , Cambridge. Candidates are required to send in their names and forms before the 1st March for the Easter examination, and before the 1st September for the October examination, to Rev. E. G. King, Madingley Vicarage, Cambridge. CHICHESTER THEOLOGICAL COLLEGE. This College was founded in the year 1839 for the instruction of candidates for Holy Orders in Theology and in the duties of the Christian Ministry. It is under the immediate control of the Bishop, and is in connection with the Cathedral Church. The Principal is appointed by the Bishop, and the Vice -Principal by the Principal, subject to the Bishop’s approval. They must both be in Priests’ Orders and Masters of Arts, or Graduates in Theology or Law. The College is designed for Graduates of the Universities and others pro- fessing their intention of offering themselves as candidates for Holy Orders in the diocese of Chichester or elsewhere.

Students are expected to pass the Cambridge Preliminary Examination before concluding their College course. Each Student on admission pays a fee of 30Z.,* together with 11. to the College Library, covering all Collegiate charges for the year. If residence extend beyond the four Terms, 10Z. is paid for each of the first three Terms after the fourth, together with 11. to the College Library, as in the first year. The Students reside in lodgings approved by the Principal, and no change of lodging is permitted without his previous sanction. The expense of residence is placed under limitations, and the Students are expected to conform, as to their habits and general conduct, to the directions of the Principal acting under the Bishop. The Students attend prayers daily in the Cathedral during residence, and are expected to be frequent partakers of the Holy Communion. Becognised Church-workers in the Diocese of Chichester may, under certain conditions, become ‘‘Probationers” of the College, and after passing examinations in stated books at intervals during two years, may obtain ordination with a single year of residence. No fees are charged to them while Probationers. Visitor and President. The Right Reverend the Lord Bishop of Chichester, D.D. Principal . — The Rev.

It is open to all who have passed the Final Examination at Oxford, Cambridge, and Durham ; and the Theological Examination at Trinity College, Dublin, and King’s College, London. Students admitted are not in any way pledged to take cures within the Diocese of Oxford. Those who, being already in Deacons’ Orders, are desirous of retirement and study, before becoming candidates for the Priesthood, may be admitted for short periods, at the discretion of the Principal, if there be room in the College. As a general rule, Students are not admitted for a shorter period than one year. The year is divided into four Terms, ending severally with the four Ember Seasons, with the exception of Lent Term, which always ends on Easter Monday. Students are not allowed to remain in College during the vacations, without special leave of the Principal. The course of study comprehends Lectures on the Holy Scriptures, on the Doctrine and Liturgy of the Church of England (especially Pearson and Hooker), on Church History, and the elements of Hebrew. Portions of the early Fathers and Historians are read in connection with the Lec- tures ; the Students are also exercised in the composition and delivery of Sermons. The manner of living is collegiate ; all meals are taken in common, and all live under one roof, as in Colleges at the University. The payment for a year’s residence is 120Z. Of this sum, 30 1. is paid when the name is first entered, and 30Z. at the beginning of the first, second, and third Terms of residence respectively. All College expenses, and all cost of fuel, candles, servants’ wages, &c., are covered by the above payment ; the rooms are furnished. It is said that notice has been given that the following resolution will be proposed at the meeting of the next Oxford Diocesan Conference : — “ That this Conference desires respectfully to draw the attention of the Lord Bishop of the Diocese to the pamphlet upon Cuddesdon College, addressed by the Rev. C. P. Golightly to the lay members of the Conference, and is of opinion that the statements contained therein show that the teaching in the said College does not deserve the confidence of members of the Church of England.” Visitor . — The Lord Bishop of Oxford.

Peache and Miss Peache, at a cost to them of upwards of 50,000/., for the purpose of training for the Ministry of the Church of England suitable Candidates who have not received a University Education ; and also for affording systematic Theological Teaching to Graduates. Its fundamental principle is contained in the following extract from its Trust Deed : — “ The teaching and government shall always be strictly Protestant and Evangelical, in conformity with the doctrines of the United Church of England and Ireland, as expressed in the Thirty-nine Articles, as now by law established, interpreted according to the plain and natural meaning thereof.” The College was opened in November, 1863, in a building rented for the purpose at S. John’s Wood. In the year 1865, the property which had been occupied by the Metropolitan Training Institution at Highbury was purchased, and under the name of S. John’s Hall the building was adapted for the use of the College of Divinity. The land contains about seven acres, lying on the north-western slope of Highbury Hill, with a view towards Highgate and Muswell Hill. It is laid out in gardens and ground for recreation. The College buildings comprise a residence for the Principal, Library, Lecture-rooms, Dining-hall, Tutor’s apartments, and sets of rooms for fifty-one Students, each having a study and bedroom. COURSE OF STUDY. The full course occupies three years, and is thus arranged : — First 1"ear.

THEOLOGICAL COLLEGES. 363 The above is a generally accurate description of the course : though the subjects are not always strictly apportioned between the years as here stated. Graduates of Universities, or persons entering under special conditions, take such a selection from the above lectures as may seem most needful during the limited time of their attendance. They may reside in lodgings. The Students undertake a considerable amount of Christian work in Schools, and in conducting Mission-room Services, Workhouse Visitation, and other means of usefulness. FOR ADMISSION, Candidates should apply to the Principal. They are required to give the names of competent referees, who may be able to speak of them from personal knowledge ; and to answer a paper of questions furnished by the Principal. They also have an interview with the Examiner of can- didates. A fixed educational standard of admission has not been found to lead to satisfactory results. Each case is considered on its own merits, regard being had to the evidence of personal piety and promise of fitness for the Ministry apparent in the candidate. The first two Terms after admission are probationary. All the advantages of the College are obtained for the payment of 60?. per annum. This sum is payable in instalments of 20?. on February 1st, May 1st, and October 1st, in each year. There is also an admission fee of 21. 2s., payable with the fee for the first Term. Furnished apartments, fires, board, and washing, together with all the educational advantages of the College, are secured by the payment of the above sum. The probable amount of his further personal expenses, including books, may be readily estimated by a candidate. The cap and gown of the College pattern may be procured from Messrs. Castell, Broad Street, Oxford, or Messrs. Cox, Southampton Street, Strand, for 1?. 1 s. It will be observed that (prac- tically speaking) the above terms amount to giving each Student a Scholarship of considerable value. Students not residing in the College pay a tuition fee of 10?. per Term, together with the admission fee of 21. 2s. There are three Terms in the year : — Lent Term, from the end of Janu- ary to the day before Good Friday; Easter Term, from the second Satur- day after Easter to the end of July ; Michaelmas Term, from about the 20th September to the Thursday or Friday before Christmas. Vacations are six weeks at Christmas, a fortnight at Easter, and eight weeks in August and September. Regularity of habits, and conformity to College hours, and to the rules needful for the due order of such an Institution, are required. Each Student has his own study and bedroom, the furniture of which is provided by the College, without charge. All the meals are in the Common Hall. The mode of instruction is that used in the best Colleges in Cambridge, being rather Tutorial and Catechetical, than Professorial. Principal . — The Rev. T. P. Boultbee, LL.D., late Fellow of S.

There is a large and convenient building, including a house for the Principal, a chapel, and rooms for the Assistants and 70 resident Students, all in the same edifice ; the chapel seats 1 50 persons, and is open to the public tinder the provisions of the Private Chapels Act. The College stands in its own ground of seven acres, and is two miles from the Birkenhead Railway Station, and three miles from Liverpool. The Principal addresses intending Students in these words : “ I would express an earnest hope that all Students coming to S, Aidan’s will resolve, by God’s grace, to exercise frugality, diligence, and self-discipline, as among the best practical preparations for the work of the Christian Ministry. I hope that Resident and non-Resident Students alike will, both in their persevering application to study, and in the regulation of their conduct generally during their College course, never forget the high object to which, in entering the College, they have distinctly devoted themselves, and that, with ceaseless prayer for God’s blessing, they may so prepare themselves for the sacred Ministry of Christ’s Church as both by their life and doctrine to set forth God’s glory and set forward the salvation of all men.” Every one applying to be admitted as a Student is required to send to the Principal the names of two competent referees, a certificate of baptism, and a testimonial signed by a beneficed Clergyman of the Church of Eng- land, and if accepted, to pass the Entrance Examination, which is strictly elementary, and which comprises general questions in Old and New Testament History, Elements of Greek and Latin Grammar, the Gospel according to S. Mark in Greek, the Gospel according to S. Mark in Latin. A certain amount of previous education is expected in every candidate for admission to the College, and in no case can the Entrance Examina- tion be dispensed with, except when the Student is already a graduate of some University. The College course for University Graduates will be three Terms, com- mencing with the Michaelmas Term. Graduates, on applying for admis- sion, must send to the Principal a Certificate of their Degree, in addition to the documents above required. Students desiring to study at the College during part of the Long Vaca- tion may do so, by permission of the Principal, on payment of an extra fee. A Preparatory Class is conducted during Term time and in the Long Vacation, in which Class applicants for future admission as Students may be prepared for the Entrance Examination, and can receive such other instruction as may be deemed advisable. Those wishing to become members of this Class must send in to the Principal the References, Certificate, and Testimonial required from in- tending Students.

The object of the College is “ to provide an education to qualify young men for the service of the Church in the distant dependencies of the British Empire, with such strict regard to economy and frugality of habits, as may fit them for the special duties to be discharged, the diffi- culties to be encountered, and the hardships to be endured.” The College is formed on the general plan of the collegiate institutions of the English Universities — to consist of a Warden, Sub- Warden, and six Fellows. The Students may be of any nation and rank in life, and are “ under such Statutes, Buies, and Ordinances as are for the time being in force in the College.” The .principal clauses of the College Statute, relating to Students, are : — “ Candidates for admission into the College as Students will be sut> mitted to a previous examination. They will be required to be in com- munion with the Church of England, and to bring with them satisfactory certificates of baptism, and of religious and moral character. “ They will not be admitted ordinarily under eighteen or above twenty- two years of age. But the Warden may, in special cases, dispense with this regulation on the subject of age. They shall sign a written promise to conform to the rules of the College, to obey those who are set over them, and diligently to pursue the studies appointed them. They shall also sign a written declaration of their deliberate intention to devote themselves, with all the powers of mind and body which God in His goodness has given them, to His service in the Ministry of the Church of England in the distant dependencies of the British Empire. “ The Students are required to attend the daily Morning and Evening Prayers in the College Chapel, and are exhorted to communicate monthly at the least, and oftener if they desire it, and the Warden consider them fit so to do. “ The Students shall have separate apartments, but shall take all their meals in common in the College Hall. “ They shall wear a distinctive dress, and their ordinary apparel shall be grave and sober. “ The ordinary course of instruction in the College will be completed in three years. “ The payments to be made by the Students for the expenses of their maintenance shall be from time to time fixed by the Warden, with the approbation of the Visitor, and shall be made in advance at the beginning of each Term.” The annual collegiate charge for the education and maintenance of each Student is 40 1 . This includes rooms, furniture, and attendance of College servants. It does not include the vacations, which are limiled to three lunar months in the year, nor travelling and personal expenses, books, and stationery ; but the two last are furnished at a reduced price. The expense of cap, gown, and surplice is 3Z. Each Student is expected to find his own sheets and towels. All other things are provided by the College. No fee of any kind, or caution money, is required on admission ; but every Student at the close of his residence, before receiving his College testimonials, is required to make a declaration that all his bills are duly settled. In May, 1857, the use of a distinctive hood was sanctioned by His THEOLOGICAL COLLEGES. 367 Grace the Visitor of the College. The hood, accompanied by a diploma, is granted by the College to such matriculated Students as have completed the prescribed course, and have received missionary or colonial appoint- ments. The Terms of the College are two, and are fixed according to the dis- cretion of the Warden. There are 26 Exhibitions of considerable value to Students. COURSE OF STUDY. Junior Scripture History.

This College was founded by Bishop Law, in the year 1816, endowed by the Earl of Lonsdale with the incumbency of the Parish of St. Bees, and recognized by Act of Parliament (3 and 4 Vic. cap. 77). Its object is to supply a good and economical education for Candidates for Holy Orders. The College course extends over two years : this period is divided into four Terms, during which residence is indispensable. The first Term commences about the 28th of January, and ends towards the 5th of May ; the seccnl begins about the 28th of August, and closes about the 5th of December. The third and fourth are like the first and second. Lectures begin punctually (Sundays excepted) on the 1st of February and 1st of September. Students are admitted either in January or August. There being no Collegiate Buildings, each Student furnishes himself 368 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. with a house or lodgings in the village, under the direction and control of the Principal. The expense of board and lodging, with moderate economy, may be from eighteen shillings to twenty-four shillings a week for each Student. The fee for Tuition is 10Z. a Term, paid each Term in advance ; three guineas are paid by each Student when he comes into residence, in aid of a fund for keeping the College in repair and increas- ing the Library ; the cap and gown cost about 1 1. 10s.; this, with the additional cost of some prescribed books, includes all the necessary ex- penses. The Librarian, who is generally a distinguished Student of the College, is exempted from the payment of the College fee. Before the admission of a Student, the Principal must be furnished with testimonials from two Clergymen of the Church of England ; one of these must certify that the person in whose behalf it is given is a man of un- blemished morality and consistent piety ; that he is cordially attached to the Church of England ; and fitted, by his general habits, character, and attainments, for the office of the ministry. It is desirable that it should also specify his age and condition, as well as his pursuits from the time when he left school to that in which the certificate is granted. If no single Clergyman can give the testimonial for the whole period, it may be covered by several. The other testimonial is to certify that the in- dividual desiring admission has such a knowledge of the Greek and Latin languages that he can attend lectures upon the Greek Gospels and some easy Latin Author, with advantage to himself. No Student can continue a member of the College whose conduct is not in all respects satisfactory to the Authorities. The ordinary limits of age are twenty-one and thirty-five. The testi- monials may be sent in at any time during the three months previous to the commencement of that Term in which the Student proposes to begin his residence. The course of study during the four Terms embraces Scriptural and Ecclesiastical History ; the Evidences of Religion, external and internal ; an expository knowledge of the New Testament ; Lectures on the Creeds and the Articles of Religion ; Theology, doctrinal and pastoral ; and the composition and delivery of Sermons.

BONIFACE MISSION-HOUSE, WARMINSTER, WILTS. Established October 5th, 1860. This College was founded by the Rev. Sir James Erasmus Philipps, Bart., M.A., Vicar of Warminster, for the purpose of preparing young men (of the age of about sixteen and upwards) for S. Augustine’s College, Canterbury, and other Missionary Colleges abroad, as Bishop’s College, Calcutta, S. John’s, Newfoundland, and for direct work in the Mission THEOLOGICAL COLLEGES. 369 Field, etc. It admits men of all classes in society, who seem to be gifted for Missionary work, and called to the same of God. Exceptional education can be offered to those who are of an advanbed age, and cannot he admitted in consequence at S. Augustine’s, etc. They are entitled Associate Students. Each application will be decided on its own merits. The instruction given is in (1) the Latin and Greek Languages ab initio; (2) Mathematics (pure and mixed), if needed ; (3) English Literature and Grammar, and general subjects, with a view to preparing them for any circumstances in which they may be placed ; (4) Theology, the Old and' New Testament History, Liturgiology, and Ecclesiastical History, etc. ; (5) Gardening, Carpentering, Smith’s work, Printing, and Bookbinding. Besides there are opportunities for teaching in the Night and Sunday Schools, and visiting the poor, when it is thought advisable, and their ser- vices are requiied. Singing is regularly taught, and instruction in playing on the Harmonium, etc., is also given. The Students attend Matins in the College Chapel, and a short service in College in the evening. Also a Mid-day Service and Evensong, if so dis- posed. There is a Celebration in the parish oh Sundays and Holy Days. Opportunities for special prayer and meditation are afforded at times, and it is intended by degrees, as thought fit from time to time, to give direct instruction in ministerial work, and the spiritual life. The College is at present a large house, near the Parish Church, and there are about thirty Students. There is a Common room, and a Library.. The Terms are four in number, and are called Lent, Easter, Michaelmas, and Advent. Terms. Lent Term begins about January 25th ; Michaelmas about August 5th. The Vacations are five weeks at Christmas and seven at Midsummer, a week at Easter, and a few days between Michaelmas and Advent Terms after Commemoration Day. The two latter are usually spent in College. The College charge is iOl. a year, including board, lodging, tutors, and washing. The S.P.G. make a grant to a certain number of the Students, of 10Z. a year. This is attainable usually after a short stay at the College. Books can be obtained with 25 per cent, discount taken off at the College. It is recommended that 2 1. worth a year be provided — the education being directly interfered with, if an insufficient number be granted. Otherwise the personal expenses of the Students are small, all extravagance and waste being discouraged, as inconsistent with the poverty which should more or less characterise all clergy, especially those who have chosen the Missionary life, and unjust to those who assist them in their stay at the College. The College has the sanction of the Bishop of Salisbury ; and there are 35 Students at present. • Warden . — The Rev.

Students prepared for Holy Orders in the Church of England, at a cost of about 45 l. per ann. for tuition, rooms, &c. The coui se extends to ten Terms — three Terms to the year. Numerous prizes and Scholarships. This College possesses the exceptional privilege of conferring the Degrees of B.A. and B.D., and has been affiliated to the University of Oxford. The Course of Instruction comprises the following subjects : — Theology, Classics, Mathematics, English, German, French, and Welsh. Thus the Course embraces preparation for the Civil Service, and for other Professions, as well as for Holy Orders. Nearly all the Scholarships on the original foundation, and all those recently endowed, are entirely open. Students who enter in February and October are at liberty to compete for the Scholarships then vacant. The Examinations begin on or about the 1st of October and 1st February. The Scholarships are tenable during residence in the College, but are forfeited by misconduct. Prizes are given in Theology, Hebrew, Classics, Mathematics, Logic, History, the Natural Sciences, English, French, Welsh, and German. The Bates Prize, value 14 l., is given to the Student who in his first year distinguishes himself most in Classics and Mathematics. Three Hebrew Exhibitions / one in Welsh, and one in Natural Sciences, of the value of 10Z.. are awarded for the greatest proficiency in these subjects, and may be held with any Scholarship which does not exceed 40Z. in value. The College has by Charter the power of conferring the Degrees of B.A. and B.D., above referred to. The B.A. Degree can be obtained by Students who have resided nine full Terms, and who have passed all their Examina- tions satisfactorily. These Examinations take place each year in June, and are conducted by Examiners nominated by the Vice-Chancellors of the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge. For the Theological Certificate and for the Degree of B.D. a residence of ten Terms is necessary. This Degree can only be obtained five years after the candidate has taken Priest’s Orders. The matriculation fee is 1 Z. The sum of 20Z. must also be deposited at entrance as caution money, which is returned whenever a Student leaves College. The entire necessary expenses of a Student, including tuition, rooms, commons in Hall, &c., do not exceed 45Z. per annum. Visitor . — The Lord Bishop of S. David’s.

THEOLOGICAL COLLEGES. 371 SALISBURY THEOLOGICAL COLLEGE. Founded by Bishop Hamilton, a.d. 1860. The object of this Institution is to supply candidates for Holy Orders with religious and intellectual training, between the time of graduating at the University and entering the Ministry. The College is designed for all who have taken their Degree at Oxford, Cambridge, or Durham ; or who have passed the Theological Examination at Trinity College, Dublin, and King’s College, London. Students may be admitted who have not graduated at the University, with the sanction of the Bishop ; such Students to remain at the College for two years at hast. Candidates for admission will be expected to produce testimonials of good conduct, and strict inquiry will be made of their fitness to enter upon this preparatory work. Students are not confined in their choice of Curacies to the Diocese of Salisbury. The Bishop of Salisbury and some other Bishops will accept one year’s residence at this College in lieu of the Divinity Certificate at Oxford and the Voluntary Theological Examination at Cambridge. Students, before entering the College, are required to pass an examina- tion in the Greek of S. Matthew’s Gospel, in the English Bible, and in the first Book of Cicero de Officiis. They reside in the College with the Principal, adopting a Collegiate life. The length of residence for Graduates is one year, consisting of four Terms. The Students attend daily the Cathedral and College Chapel Services. Surplice, cap, gown, and hood will be required. The course of Lectures embraces the Old and New Testament, especially the study of the Psalter (as entering largely into future clerical life), the Doctrine and Liturgy of the Church of England, Church History, Patristic Reading, with the study of the Hebrew language. Practice in writing Sermons, and in preaching without book is given. Opportunities also ' are afforded for seeing parochial and school work. The payments are 30Z., payable in advance at the beginning of each Term, and 11. annually towards the Library. The sum of 101. will be required of eaph Student, upon his name being inserted in the College Books, which, upon his admission, will be deducted from the payment for the first Term. These payments include all expenses connected with the College, for board, lodging, servants’ wages, &c. ; but each Student is requested to bring his own sheets and towels. The Terms are so arranged as to embrace the four Ember Seasons, viz * Lent, Trinity, Michaelmas, and Christmas. Visitw \ — The Lord Bishop of Salisbury. Principal . — The Rev.

This School was founded in 1877, by the Rev. Dr. Benson, the then Bishop of Truro, now Primate of all England. In the Cathedrals of the Old Foundation, it is the duty of a Canon, named the Chancellor (distinct from the Chancellor of the Diocese), to maintain Schools of Divinity in which men are trained for the work of the Ministry. The foundations of such an Institution have been laid in Truro, and since the beginning of October 1877, students have been at work. There are now seventeen students receiving instruction. There is a weekly Examination in one or more of the subjects, and Sermons are regularly composed and corrected. All the Students are enabled to obtain experience in Parochial Work in Truro or the neighbourhood under the superintendence of the Clergy. The course of Theological study is, in the main, shaped after the scheme put forth from time to time by the Theological Faculty of Cambridge, with a view to the “ Preliminary Examination of Candidates for Holy Orders.” The Students attend the Cathedral for Morning Prayer and at other fixed times ; and wear academic dress. The ordinary term of Residence, unless the Student has taken a University Degree, is two years. There are three terms in the year, averaging ten weeks each. The fees are 10Z. a term, or 30Z. a year. Principal . — The Rev. 0. H. Whitaker, M.A., Hon. Canon of Truro. Vice- Principal. — Rev. G. S. H. Walpole, M.A. WELLS THEOLOGICAL COLLEGE, WELLS, SOMERSET. This College was opened on the 1st May, 1840, to Graduates of the Univer- sities of the United Church of England and Ireland, desirous of preparing themselves for Holy Orders, and furnished with satisfactory testimonials. The period of residence ordinarily required is one year, but in certain cases Graduates may be admitted for a shorter period of not less than two Terms. The year is divided into four Terms, with vacations. The Bishop of Bath and Wells will accept the testimonial of a year’s resi- dence and of fitness for Holy Orders, in place of the certificate of having passed the Cambridge Voluntary Examination, or of having attended the usual Divinity Lectures at Oxford, and in very special cases, instead of the Dublin Divinity Testimonium. Non- Graduates who come with sufficient recommendations, and are approved by the Bishop, may also be admitted as Students. These Candidates are THEOLOGICAL COLLEGES. 373 required to pass an entrance examination in elementary Bible-knowledge, and in Greek and Latin, and to reside two years at the College. The general course of study consists of the Holy Scriptures, the Book of Common Prayer, and the Articles of the Church of England ; Ecclesiastical History ; Hooker, Bp. Pearson, Bp. Butler. Hebrew, and some of the Greek and Latin Church writers, form the subject of private Lectures. Attention is paid to the subject of Pastoral Theology, and opportunity is afforded for teaching in schools, and visiting the sick and poor ; for practice in the com- position of sermons, and of public reading ; and for instruction in Church music. The Students live in lodgings which are assigned by the Principal. They are required to conform to the College rules, and to pass satisfactorily the examinations at the end of each term, in order to obtain testimonials on leaving the College. The College Fee is 30 Z. fof each year, or 10Z. per Term for any period less than the year, to be paid in advance into Messrs. Stuckey’s Bank, Wells, to the account of the Trustees. In all cases a payment of 1Z. 10s. towards the College Choir, and of 1Z. 10s. to the Library, is required on admission. The cap, gown, and hood of Degree are used.

This House was opened in October 1876, as a place for the residence and training of candidates for Holy Orders, and especially of such as are looking forward to foreign Missionary work. It was originally intended only for Graduates ; but, after some experience, it was decided to admit Under- graduates also : these latter, if intending to undertake Missionary work, may enter in their first year ; if preparing for work at home, in their last year of residence. The principal arrangements of the house are as follows : — There are three Terms in the year, corresponding with those kept by the Colleges, except that for Graduates the Summer Term extends six weeks into the Long Vaca- tion, generally till the end of July. Undergraduates are required to reside for eight weeks in each Term, permission for longer residence being given when desirable. The charge for Graduates, including board, lodging, and tuition, is 81Z. for the thirty weeks of their annual residence ; for Under- graduates, 2Z. per week for board and lodging. All meals are in common. There is a Chapel attached to the House, which is licensed by the Bishop, in which there are daily services ; celebrations of the Holy Communion on Sundays, Holydays, and Thursdays ; weekly addresses, etc. The Principal assists the Graduates as far as possible in their theological studies; the Undergraduates are chiefly engaged in reading for their University Exami- 374 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. nations. Opportunities are provided for helping in parish work, such as teaching in Schools, visiting, and preaching in a Mission Room. The special peculiarity of the work which distinguishes it from that of other Theological and Missionary Colleges consists in the opportunities here afforded (1) for those who are about to be ordained for home-work, of attending University lectures and making use of the many advantages which Oxford affords, whilst definitely training for Holy Orders ; and (2) for the preparation for Foreign work of University men who will be, it is hoped, fitted to deal with the more intellectual systems of heathen religion, and to meet the increasing demands for an educated Clergy among our emigrants and colonists. The work has already been blessed ; and though the progress has been slow, there is reason to believe that S. Stephen’s House has not only been useful in training men, and in some cases in assist- ing Missionary candidates to obtain a University education, which otherwise would have been beyond their power, but has also cheered and strengthened those working abroad by showing that an attempt is being made to give a distinct recognition to Missionary training within the University. It has also been found helpful in affording hospitality and assistance to Missionaries who wish for a time to reside in Oxford, whether for purposes of study, or in order to attend meetings. Patron . — The Lord Bishop of Oxford. Principal . — The Rev. J. 0. Johnston, M.A. S. PAUL’S MISSION HOUSE, BURGH-LE-MARSH, LINCOLNSHIRE. This House was set apart for the Missionary work of the Church, on the Festival of the Conversion of S. Paul, January 28, 1878. There are 15 resident Students. Its design is to train young men who are resolved to devote themselves to Missionary work. The course of instruction embraces English, Latin, and Greek, the Holy Scriptures, the Prayer Book, Theology. A portion of each day is spent in Gardening, Carpentering, etc. The Students attend daily Morning and Evening Prayer in the Parish Church of Burgh ; and on Sundays they engage in some form of Church work under the direction of the neighbour- ing clergy. Students are admitted at the commencement of either term, i.e ., in the fourth week either of January or of August. The first half of each term is a period of probation. The annual charge for the maintenance of each Student is 40Z., paid in advance, one half at the beginning of each term. Principal . — The Rev. T.

The instruction given is mainly Biblical. More than 300 Students have been received, of whom nearly 200 have gone to China, India, Burmah, Japan, Africa, France, Spain, Italy, Syria, hhe West Indies, and the home field. Students are occupied during their training in mission work, preach- ing in halls, and in the open air, and those preparing to become medical missionaries attend lectures at a London Hospital.

For Training Young Men for Home Mission Priests. This Institution was begun in a small and tentative manner, and only originally intended to help a few who might come within the influence of the founder. It has, however, been so peculiarly blessed by the Great Shepherd and Bishop of our souls, that friends having liberally contributed to the College, new buildings were erected, and formally opened and blessed by the Lord Bishop of Winchester (the Diocesan) on Thursday, June 14th, 1877, so that that which otherwise could only have been a blessing to a few may be a public benefit to the Church of God in this land. Never, perhaps, in the history of the Church of England has the need of faithful priests, trained for work among the degraded and neglected poor of our great cities, been more keenly felt. Large masses of the population are growing ud in practical heathenism, and the working classes in especial, not only alienated from the Church, but hostile to it. 376 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. A numerous body of well-trained clergy must be brought into the field to meet spreading infidelity and secularism. Those who would enter upon the great and difficult work of evangelizing men sc long alienated from God, must first learn the language, the manners, habits, and modes qf thought of those amongst whom they are to labour ; must grow elastic in mind, able to adapt themselves to difficult circum- t ances. to sympathize with the people, and to understand poor people’s ways and speech. The wide separation between classes in England renders this impossible for those to attain who belong to a higher rank, except it be by much study and experience, acquired by constant intercourse with the poor in their own homes. No wooden systeip qr slavish adherence to ancient precedent in Home Mission work can reach the hearts of England’s poor. Keen appreciation of the times we live in, delicate capacity for being all things to all men, with- out ever ceasing to be one’s self, i.e., God’s priest ; minute knowledge of the passions, the errors, the intellectual and moral evils of the day — all these are indispensable elements of modern ecclesiastical education, without which the ministry will fail to retain its hold over the faithful, or to win back the wandering sheep. Our soldiers are being armed with new weapons and modern tactics ; and, in like manner, God’s servants must be furnished with fitting arms for the novel warfare they have to encounter, if they are to contend successfully against the passions and weaknesses of the day. Our rising generation of priests must not be content only to seek a spirit of prayer, a habit of self-denial, or pure, single-minded faith ; they must seek also the keenest apprehension of the special needs of our time. To meet such wants as these, the Mission College has been established, which furnishes first, a basis of sound theological knowledge such as is sup- plied by other Theological Schools ; and, secondly, a feature peculiar to this College, careful instruction in every branch of parochial work among the poor. Students are employed in conducting Schools, Bible Classes, Clubs, Guilds, in visiting from house to house, and, when licensed by the Bishop of the Diocese, in conducting Mission Services and in preaching. In all these works, and others, too many to mention, careful instruction is given and ample opportunities for the Students to acquire practical experience, “ that the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.” Before admission to the College, applicants must be recommended by three clergymen to whom they are well known, and furnish a medical cer- tificate that no physical infirmity exists such as would interfere with their future usefulness. They then reside in the College as Students, but if able to pass the following Examination, as Divinity Scholars : — 1st. In General Knowledge of Holy Scripture. 2nd. In one Latin and one Greek book, selected at the option of the Student from the following : — Anselm. Cur Deus Homo. (Williams and Norgate, Henrietta Street.) Augustine. Doctrina Christiana. (D. Nutt, Strand.) Cicero. Natura Deorum, or De Officiis. (D. Nutt, Strand.) The Gospel of S. Luke in Greek. (Deighton and Bell, Cambridge.) Xenophon. Anabasis, Book I. (D. Nutt, Strand.) Greek Liturgy of S. James. (Hayes, Henrietta Street.) 3rd. Latin and Greek Grammar. THEOLOGICAL COLLEGES. 377 The term of residence (ordinarily two years) dates from the time of passing this Examination. Graduates of the Universities reside one j^ear, hut if they do not require the College diploma they can be admitted to study for shorter periods by special permission of the Warden. The course of study comprises : — The Holy Scripture ; the Old Testa- ment in English, and the New Testament in Greek ; the Prayer Book, with an examination of Primitive and Mediaeval Liturgies ; the doctrines of the Church of England, especially as set forth in her Creeds, Articles, and Stan- dard Divines (Hooker, Pearson, &c.) ; Church History, Primitive, Mediaeval, and Modern ; Evidences, &c., e.g ., Butler, Blunt. Canon Law. Lectures are also delivered on the following subjects : — Dogmatic Theology, Pastoral Theology, Ecclesiastical History, Moral Philosophy, and Logic. The manner of living is collegiate ; all meals are taken in common, and all live under one roof, as in Colleges at the Universities. The payment, including board, lodging, tuition, and college fees, is 52 1. per annum, or 13Z. per Term, paid in advance. There are several Exhibitions connected with the College to assist poor Students. Each Student, before being presented to the Bishop as a Candidate for Holy Orders, will be required to pass the standard of the Theological Faculty of Cambridge, and must have given full proof to the authorities of the College of his vocation to the ministry. The formal diploma or College certificate of Scholars of Divinity will be given at the Final Examination. The year is divided into four Terms, arranged so as to embrace the four Ember Seasons, — Lent, Easter, Michaelmas, Christmas. Students are not allowed to remain in College during the vacations without special leave of the Warden. Parents wishing to dedicate their sons to Home Mission work can enter their boys at any age in the College School ; and should they show a voca- tion for the work, will be admitted at the age of eighteen as Students of the College.

At the Universities both of Oxford and Cambridge, special establish- ments have lately been erected for the training and instruction of Theolo- gical Students, “ in the principles of the Reformed Protestant Church,” avowedly in opposition to “sacerdotalism,” as well as to “scepticism,” as is stated in the circular issued by a joint committee of the tw r o Univer- sities. The Earls of Chichester and Harrowby, the Bishop of Ripon, the Bishop of Sodor and Man, Bishops Perry, Ryan, and Anderson, and the Deans of Canterbury, Gloucester, and Ripon are leading members of this committee. The two Halls which have been opened bear the names of Wycliffe and Ridley, historic champions df the Protestant Reformation in England, having an obvious significance with regard to the Church principles they are designed to uphold. Wycliffe Hall, Oxford, under the Rev. R. B. Girdlestone as Principal, was opened more than a twelve- month ago. Ridley Hall was opened in 1882. These halls are not intended, like Keble College at Oxford, and Selwyn College at Cambridge, to be new colleges for the reception of undergraduates, but are meant to be institutions for assisting to educate resident members of the University, who are candidates for Holy Orders, and to train them to become good ministers. For the accomplishment of this object, the Halls will supply for graduates desirous of pursuing their theological studies an economical residence within the University, so that they may be able to attend the various professors’ lectures, and avail themselves of all the other facilities for education afforded at Oxford and Cambridge respectively. This arrangement will not disconnect the resident students from their own Colleges, and will, it is believed, prove very preferable to their going to a Diocesan College previous to their ordination. The Principals of the Halls will also give lectures to undergraduates, who, having passed the general examination required of all undergraduates, propose to take their degree in theology. These lectures will be supplemental to those of the Divinity Professors, and supply a void which, according to the testimony of some of the most eminent of these, the lectures cannot fill. Each Hall is under the government of a Council, composed of members of the University to which it is attached. Treasurer . — John Deacon, Esq., Birchin Lane, E.C. Secretary. — E. S. Morse, Esq., 18, New Bridge Street, London, E.C. THEOLOGICAL COLLEGES. 379 WYCLIFFE HALL, OXFORD. This Hall is designed as a place of study for Graduates who feel the need of special preparation for the ministry, or who wish for a quiet home whilst attending Divinity Lectures. The course of study is mainly Biblical, special attention being directed to the scheme for the “Preliminary Examination of Candidates for Holy Orders.” The study of Hebrew is encouraged, and introductory lectures are given on Christian Evidences, the Prayer-book, and Pastoral Work, with exercises in reading and preaching. Each resident student has two rooms, but all meals are in common. The whole expense of rooms, board, and lectures is 21 l. a term. Those who wish to stay up during part of the vacation can do so. There are two Exhibitions, reducing the cost of residence nearly a half. Principal . — The Rev. R. B. Girdlestone, M.A., Ch. Ch. SOCIETY FOR PROMOTING THE EMPLOYMENT OF ADDITIONAL CURATES. Office : — 7, Whitehall, London, S.W. This Society was established in 1837, and its object is to send Mission- aries to labour among the masses in our great towns ; to supply the incumbents of the smaller towns with such a staff of Assistant Curates as may enable them to take efficient care of the souls committed to them ; to send the Gospel message and the means of grace into the remote hamlets and scattered cottages of our wide agricultural parishes; to make provision for the 264,000 souls which are annually added to the population of the country. The Society’s grants are given quite impartially, where they seem most needed and likely to do most good, without regard to the theological opinions of Incumbents, who are left to choose their fellow-labourers, subject only to the Bishop’s approval. During the year 1876 the Society has been enabled to support, in whole or in part, the large number of 637 Clergy ; thus raising the clerical staff of aided parishes from 838 to 1,475. The sum paid in grants through the Society’s agency was 63,292 1. 11s. id. The aggerate population of the aided parishes amounted to 4,155,612 ; and thns by the Society’s aid the average population under the ministra- tion of each clergyman was reduced to 2,817. The number of unaided applications of parishes still on the Society’s Register as needing help is no less than 305. The income of the Society last year was 72,632 1., the previous year being 71,505 1. Patron .—^ Her Most Excellent Majesty the Queen.

The object is to assist in supplying the necessary education to suitable Candidates for Holy Orders, who would otherwise be unable to obtain it. It aims at attaining this object by granting Exhibitions not exceeding 60Z. a year, to enable such Candidates to take a Degree at one of our Uni- versities, or to complete a course at one of the Theological Colleges. The rules are, that assistance towards enabling suitable men to procure the necessary education for qualifying themselves to enter Holy Orders shall in all cases be promised for a period not exceeding a year ; but that such assistance shall be continued during the period required to obtain such qualification, unless, from inability to pass the University or College Ex- aminations, or to satisfy the Committee as to his continued fitness for re- maining a Candidate for Holy Orders, or from other cause, any person aided by this Fund shall, in the opinion of the Committee, render it unde- sirable for their aid to be further extended to him. That the amount of assistance to be given shall in all cases be measured Honorary, THEOLOGICAL COLLEGES. 381 by the necessities of the applicant, and shall not in any case exceed 60 1. in any one year. That in all cases a friend of the Candidate for assistance, as well as the Candidate himself, shall be seen by a member of the Committee, or by some one appointed by the Committee, who shall report to the Committee in writing. That in all cases this Society shall require that the Candidate to be assisted shall be approved by a majority of the Committee present, which shall also determine the extent to which he may be helped. That Candidates for assistance shall satisfy the Committee that there is a reasonable probability of their being able to pass Eesponsions or the previous Examination at the Universities, or the Examinations at Colleges at the proper time. That Candidates shall be required to make applications on a form to be provided by the Committee. That, as a general rule, assistance shall not be given to those who have already entered upon a University or College course. That, as a general rule, no Exhibition shall be given to Candidates under 20 years of age. That the following understanding be made with each Exhibitioner : — (1) That in the event of any of the recipients of the grants from the Ordination Candidates’ Exhibition Fund failing to be ordained Priest in the Church of England, he shall engage to repay to the Com- mittee, at the earliest possible time, the money advanced for his education ; and (2) that in the event of doubts as to his vocation for Holy Orders arising during his University or College career, he shall be bound in honour to communicate such doubts to the Committee. Forms of Application for the Society’s assistance may be procured at any time from the Secretary, 7, Whitehall, London, S.W. From a recent report referring to the Ordination Candidates’ Exhibition Fund it would seem that the experience of the past has confirmed the an- ticipation that recent changes in the manner of awarding Exhibitions, Sizar- ships, &c., at the Universities has deprived the Church of many Candidates for Ordination. The almost inevitable result of a universal system of com- petitive Examination is to give the greater portion of the prizes contended for to the children of well-to-do people. In a few exceptional cases genius will conquer the difficulties arising from inferior education. But with men of average ability the scale will be turned by possessing or wanting the special instruction which can only be obtained by a liberal outlay of money. We find, therefore, that men, who under the old system of helping the poor at the Universities would have gained Exhibitions or Sizarships, are now displaced by the sons of the wealthier, who have been trained for the competition. As the old foundations are thus diverted from the purpose for which they were given, it is necessary to supply the void, if the Church would not lose many valuable men, whose services she greatly needs in the ranks of her Ministry. It was to give some help towards supplying this want that this Fund was commenced. Its primary object is to assist young men of limited means to prepare for entering Holy Orders by taking a Degree at one of 382 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. our ancient Universities ; but it was thought better not absolutely to limit its operations, as in some few cases it might be desirable to assist men to complete a course of reading at one of the Theological Colleges. During the three years that have elapsed since the Fund was com- menced, there have been 195 applications for assistance. Seventy -three of these applicants have been enabled to receive a favourable answer, and of these 21 have entered as Students at Oxford ; 15 at Cambridge ; 6 at Durham ; 3 at Dublin 1 at King’s College, London ; 2 at the Theological College, Lichfield ; 7 at the Theological College, Chichester ; and 13 at other Theological Colleges ; 5 have not yet matriculated. With regard to the supply of clergy, the following remarks from the pen of Canon Liddon will be read with interest : — “ The * Ordination Candidates’ Exhibition Fund ’ would probably be more generally supported by Churchmen if its existence and objects were more widely known. “It owes its origin to the foresight and energy of Mr. Gregory ; and he has continued to superintend and extend its operations ever since its first establishment. “ The importance of such a fund at the present time is plain enough. On the one hand, the new districts which are constantly being formed, as well as ancient and well-worked parishes, are asking more and more earnestly for clerical workmen, if the Church is not to forfeit her opportunities. On the other hand, the men are to be had, but not immediately, nor exactly on the terms of former years. “The diminished number of candidates for Holy Orders among the wealthier classes in this country is a fact to which we must make up our minds. It may be partly accounted for by the growth of an indefinite scepticism, which relaxes moral interest and enterprise in a larger area of society than that which it directly affects. Partly, too, it may be traceable to the unsettling results of recent controversies within the Church, and, as I have reason to fear, of recent mistakes in legislation. But the main cause is to be found in the new careers in all directions which are open to young men of good education in the rising generation, and which attract many whose moral and mental bent would have inclined them, under other circumstances, to seek Holy Orders. “ Side by side with this failure of the old sources of clerical supply, there is a remarkable and increasing disposition on the part of young men in poorer circumstances to devote themselves to ministerial work. Doubtless, in some few cases, the motive of this disposition is not a satisfactory one ; men hope to better a social position, or to maintain themselves on easier terms than at present. But, so far as I have had opportunities of observing, this remark by no means applies to the great majority. The so- termed “ prizes ” of the Church are comparatively few ; and the clerk who leaves a house of business to seek ordination knows that he thereby condems himself, not unfrequently, in future years, to comparative poverty. At least, it has fallen in my way to know or hear of several young men who, so far as we can presume to judge, would become clergymen, if they could, from motives of pure and unselfish enthusiasm ; and who would probably be found, some years hence, among the most untiring and efficient of the Church’s work- men. “ The practical question is, how to enable them to prepare for Holy Orders. The men of whom I am thinking are clerks, masters in small schools, — THEOLOGICAL COLLEGES. 383 above all, the sons of poor clergymen. As a rule they are altogether depend- ent for their maintenance on their salaries ; and they have either been imperfectly educated, or have forgotten what was learnt at school, and have to begin all over again, or nearly so. Where there are practical aptitudes for pastoral work, and tokens of sincerity of purpose, there is a natural disposition to overlook defective instruction in serious subjects, to say nothing of lack of that general breadth of information which we must all feel to be necessary, if we are to do our Master’s work in the present day. To ordain men who are excellent but uninstructed is no kindness either to the ordained or to the Church. “ The Ordination Candidates’ Exhibition Fund is an effort to assist young men of this description to complete their education with a view to ordination. Since 1854 the system of competitive examinations at the Universities has transferred their endowments, almost universally, to the sons of wealthy parents, who can pay for good schools and private tutors. Against these advantages, genius itself, if poor, has but a sorry chance ; and the Church must expect to derive, in future years, comparatively few advantages from revenues which, whether before or since the Reformation, were mainly intended to supply the ranks of her ministry. Still, it is thought better, if possible, to assist the candidate for ordination to get his degree ; not merely or chiefly because the degree is popularly considered a valid certificate of education, but because it is better to whet the mind upon history and phi- losophy before approaching the great questions which belong to theology. “ At the present time the fund is assisting thirty-two students. Of these eight are at Oxford, eight at Cambridge, one at Durham, seven at theological colleges, and eight have not yet matriculated. But it is supported by a small body of subscribers, and is altogether unable to meet the demand which its existence has revealed. At the last meeting of the Committee there were 122 applicants for assistance, and of these it was possible to assist only three. “ Possibly, in times to come, some fund of this kind will form part of the working machinery of every one of our dioceses. But the needs and the opportunities of the present moment are too great to allow us to wait for this. The Church needs men more than buildings, and men are to be had, if some effort is made to meet our changed and changing circumstances. To assist this effort, if not the most showy, is, I believe, one of the most useful ways of helping forward the Church’s work that are open to her wealthier members in the present day. A most practical way of promoting the object of the Fund has been sug- gested by the Clergy of the Rural Deanery of Hampton in the Diocese of London. It will be found in the following Resolutions of the Chapter. In view of the serious difficulty which now exists as to the supply of Clergy, it was resolved at the Chapter held at S. James’s Vicarage, New Hampton, on the 22nd of February last, that an effort should be made to assist two candidates for Ordination from a fund to be raised in the Deanery, and the Rev. D. Trinder, the Rev. Henry Vigne, and the Rural Dean were appointed a Sub-Committee to report on the arrange- ments necessary for carrying out the following scheme : — I. That a sum of not less than 65 1 . per annum be raised by contributions from the several parishes contained in the Hampton Deanery. 3^4 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. II. That grants be given to assist young men either to qualify them- selves for an University Degree, or to read at one of the Theolo- gical Colleges. III. That for the first two years the Exhibitioners may continue at their usual occupations, receiving a grant of 20 /. per annum to assist them in attending Theological Lectures in the evening, but that in the third year they be required to give up their whole time to preparation for Holy Orders, and that a grant of 60/. be allowed them. IV. That the scheme be worked in connection with the Ordination Candidates’ Exhibition Fund, established at 7, Whitehall, S.W. and of which the Rev. Arthur J. Ingram is Hon. Secretary. V. That Candidates be supplied from the Deanery, if suitable men can be found ; but if not, that the General Society be requested to supply the vacancies. VI. That the Incumbent of each parish in the Deanery be invited to guarantee such sum as he may think fit : the money to be sent before 31st of December next, either to the Rural Dean, or to the Rev. Arthur J. Ingram, marked “ The Hampton Deanery Ordina- tion Candidates’ Exhibition Fund.” Secretary * — The Rev. A. I. Ingram, M.A. ♦ MAGEE COLLEGE, LONDONDERRY. This College, opened in October 1865, was established mainly for the education of Students connected with the Irish Presbyterian Church. It comprises a Literary and Scientific Department, and a Theological Depart- ment. In the former there are four chairs, of Greek and Latin ; Mathe- matics and Natural Philosophy ; Logic, Belles-Lettres, and Rhetoric ; Metaphysics and Ethics. In the latter there are three, of Church History and Pastoral Theology ; Oriental Literature and Hermeneutics ; Theology. The Professors who hold these chairs constitute the College Faculty. In addition to them there are other teachers, namely, a Professor of Living Oriental Languages, and Tutors of Modern Continental Languages and Elocution. The College Session begins in the Literary and Scientific Department on the third Wednesday of October, in the Theological Department on the first Tuesday of November, and ends in both departments on the first Friday of April. At the opening of the Session, Matriculation Scholarship Examinations are held, and Scholarships and Prizes (founded by public subscription) are awarded, varying in value from 51. to 25/. The Faculty’s Certificate in Arts (recognised by the General Assembly of the Irish Presbyterian Church as equivalent to a Degree) is given to those Students who, having completed their Undergraduate course, and having studied at least one Session at Magee College, pass a satisfactory Examina- tion in a prescribed course comprising all the subjects taught in the Literary and Scientific Department. At this Examination, Students may also compete for Honours in any or THEOLOGICAL COLLEGES. 385 all of the following subjects : Classics, Mathematical and Physical Science, Mental and Moral Science. Gold and Silver Medals and Certificates of Merit are awarded to those who gain First Class, Second Class, and Third Class Honours respectively. OFFICE-BEARERS OF FACULTY. President. — Rev. T.

These Colleges were founded in 1834 for the training of young men for the Ministry, and they are divided into three branches — one at Richmond, near London, one at Didsbury, near Manchester, one at Headingley, near Leeds, and in 1881 a branch was opened in Birmingham. The Richmond Institution is for the training of young men for the Foreign Missions. From the general report of the three Colleges recently issued it appears that the gross income is about 12,396? , and the expenditure something less. The income is derived from legacies, donations, subscriptions, and collections. The following districts are the highest contributors — Manchester, 70 61. ; Leeds, 582?. ; Liverpool, 527?. ; Second London, 504 1. The two largest legacies ever left to the fund were paid to the treasurer in 1874 — one from Mr. J. Heald, of Parr’s-wood, for 5,000?. ; and one from Mr. J. Fernley, of Southport, for 2,000?. The regulation is that the students should attend College for three years, while a few who specially distinguish themselves are allowed a fourth year. Up to this time many of the students have been sent from the Colleges before their three years were up, in order to supply vacancies in circuits caused by the sickness or death of ministers. There is a growing feeling against this shortening of the proper term of study, and strenuous efforts will be made to remedy it. A suggestion has already been made that the term of residence for all students should be extended to four years, and that the fourth year students should constitute the reserve list from which to fill up vacancies as they occur in the circuits. The general course of study includes Theology, Hebrew, Greek Testament, Textual Criticism, Logic, Philosophy, Classics, Mathematics, French, German, and English. The students preach almost every Sunday during their whole time of residence. The lessons in elocution are generously paid for by Mr. Isaac Holden. A beautiful chapel, costing 15,000?., has been presented to the Didsbury College by Miss Heald and Mr. W. N. Heald, in memory of the late Mr. James Heald. The Rev. John Farrar, of London, and Mr. Alderman Mitchell, of Bradford, are the general treasurers for the Colleges fund. General Secretaries. — Revs. W. J. Tweddle and C. H. Kelly.

This College, which was designed for the reception of Students for Holy Orders, whether in England or Scotland, was, until recently, conducted at Trinity College, Glenalmond. It had its origin in the pious benefaction of Katherine Panton, residing near Aberdeen, “ erecting and endowing a semi- nary of learning, or theological institution, for the education of young men desirous to serve in the sacred ministry of the Scotch Episcopal Communion.” In 1833, the Rev. Dr. Andrew Bell founded in connection with the Institution the Lectureship which bears his name. THEOLOGICAL COLLEGES. 391 The valuable Library of the Right Rev. Alexander Jolly, D.D., Bishop of Moray, was bequeathed to the Institution in 1838. The first Professor of Theology was James Walker, D.D. (afterwards Bishop of Edinburgh, and Primus). He was assisted in his duties in the Theological Institution by Michael Russell, LL.D. (afterwards Bishop of Glasgow), as Lecturer in Ecclesiastical History. On the death of Bishop Walker in 1841, the duties of the Professor were performed by his suc- cessor in the see of Edinburgh, Right Rev. C. H. Terrott, D.D., up to the year 1848, when the Institution was removed to Trinity College, Glenal- mond ; the Warden, Rev. Charles Wordsworth, D.C.L. (now Bishop of St. Andrew’s), being appointed Pantonian Professor. The offices of Warden and Pantonian Professor were also held conjointly by the two Wardens next succeeding, Rev. Dr. J. Hannah (now Archdeacon of Lewes) and Rev. Dr. Robinson Thornton. During this period the posi- tion of Lecturer in Ecclesiastical History was for a time held by Rev. W. Bright (now Regius Professor of Ecclesiastical History, Oxford). On the resignation of Dr. Thornton, in 1873, the offices of Warden and Pantonian Professor were separated. In consequence of a destructive fire at Trinity College, Glenalmond, in which the buildings occupied by the Divinity Students were burned to the ground, the Theological Classes were removed temporarily to Edinburgh, in January, 1876 ; and in the following year the Bishops determined that the Theological College should be situated permanently in that city. The Course of Studies extends over two Sessions, commencing 25th October, and ending 31st May. There is a fortnight’s vacation at Christmas and Easter. But Students required under section 7 to attend University Lec- tures are not exempted from attendance on such University Lectures as may be delivered during these vacations. Ordinarily the Classes may be joined only in October. The subjects of study include those in which candidates for Holy Orders are commonly required to answer at the Bishops’ Examinations in Scotland and England. The Testamur is not granted to any Student who has not completed the required course, and passed the final examination. The Classes meet, at present, in the Old Manor House, Precincts of S. Mary’s Cathedral, Edinburgh. Students, before receiving the Testamur , will be required to show certificates of having attended the lectures of the Professor of Metaphysics or the Professor of Moral Philosophy in the University of Edinburgh, or any University or College named in Canon X. No one can be received as a Divinity Student who has not been confirmed and become a communicant ; and every candidate for admission is required to bring a testimonial of good character from the Bishop of the Diocese, or at least from the Clergyman of the congregation to which the applicant belongs, recommending him as a fit and proper person to enter upon a course of preparation for Holy Orders. All candidates for admission are required to pass an examination in the Four Gospels in the original Greek, the Sacred History of the Old and New Testament, and Paley’s Evidences of Christianity. Those who are not Graduates in Arts will be further required to pass a preliminary examination in the following subjects : — Cicero : De Officiis, lib. i. Xenophon : Memorabilia, lib. i. Students are permitted to reside in such lodgings only as may be sanctioned by the Pantonian Professor. Students, while in residence, are responsible to the Pantonian Professor for their conduct. Any serious case of misconduct or violation of the obligations resting on those who are candidates for the 392 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. sacred office of the ministry in Christ’s Church shall be immediately reported by the Professor to the Council, and its decision thereupon shall be final. Students are required to attend Divine Service daily at the Cathedral, unless for special reasons exempted by the Pantonian Professor. Students are required to wear their academic costume at Divine Service and at Lectures. On Sundays and Holy-days surplices are worn at Divine Ser- vice. Students wishing to gain some practical knowledge of parochial work must apply to the Pantonian Professor, who, should he approve of the application, will make suitable arrangements, under the sanction of the Bishop of the Diocese. The fees are 12 l. for each year, payable half-yearly in advance. This does not include the fees for the University Lectures, which are 4 l. 4s. Students holding Pantonian Bursaries are exempted from the fees payable to the Theological College. The following are the Bursaries, viz. : Pantonian Bursaries, at present of the annual value of 1 51., bestowed by the Bishops ; the Jamieson Bursary, of the annual value of 20 1. ; the Lus- combe Scholarship, of the annual value of TYl. 15s. 10 d. ; the Houblon Bursary, of the annual value of. 18 1. The S. P. C. K. Endowment. The interest on 1,000Z. at 4 per cent, sup- plies each Student with the principal text-books required at Lectures, including Hooker, Pearson, and Butler. The surplus, if any, will be dis- posed of by the Council in making additions to the College Library. Every Candidate for admission is required to pass an examination in the following subjects : — 1. The Sacred History of the Old and New Testament. 2. The Four Gospels in the Original Greek. 3. Paley’s Evidences of Christianity. 4. The first two Books of Xenophon’s Anabasis to be construed and parsed. 5. Cicero de Officiis to be construed and parsed. 6. A passage of English to be translated into Latin. He must also have been confirmed and become a communicant ; and must produce a testimonial of good character from his Clergyman. He is expected to provide himself with cap, gown, and surplice. Applications for admission, or further information, may be made to the Rev. Pantonian Professor, Old Manor House, S. Mary’s Cathedral, Precincts, Edinburgh.

This College was founded in 1768, and is supported by an endowment, value about 800Z., and by annual subscriptions. It is specially designed to educate young men for the Christian ministry, without regard to denomi- national peculiarities. Instruction is given in Latin, Greek, Hebrew, Mathe- matics, Theology, &c. The College originated in the necessity for seeking and preparing the Agency required for developing the great evangelistic work to which the Countess of Huntingdon devoted herself and her all. Her Ladyship, accordingly, took upon lease Trevecca House, in the parish of Talgarth, county of Brecon, and publicly opened it as a College, on the 24th of August, 1768 (being the anniversary of her birth), by a sermon preached by her Chaplain, George Wliitefield, from the words (Exodus xx. 24) : “ In all places, where I record my name, I will come unto thee, and bless thee.” This College was sustained by the Countess, upon her sole responsibility; and from it were sent forth upwards of one hundred and fifty ministers. As the Countess had but a life interest in her income, a Society was established under her patronage, on the 17th of October, 1787, called the “ Apostolic Society,” for “supporting and perpetuating the Countess of Huntingdon’s College.” Seven gentlemen were appointed trustees, and to them her Ladyship bequeathed the library, furniture, communion- plate, and all her other property at Trevecca. Lady Huntingdon died on the 17th of June, 1791, and was buried in the sepulchre of her fathers, at Ashby- de-la-Zouch. Immediately after, at a meeting of the “ Apostolic Society,” it was resolved that the College should be removed to the neigh- bourhood of London ; and hence the purchase, for 950Z., of an estate of upwards of nine acres at Cheshunt, Herts — upon which was a large and substantial house ; the distance from London being about 1 4 miles. The house was publicly opened as the New College on the 24th of August, 1792. A Chapel was added in 1806 (renovated and enlarged in 1863), and in 1821 the College proper was erected, for the accommodation of twenty-two Students. In 1861 an adjoining estate, consisting of about two acres, was added to the College property ; and by the erection on a part of this estate of the President’s new house, room was provided in his former residence for six additional Students. The Centenary Year, 1868, was celebrated by further improvement and enlargement of the College buildings (ai a total cost of nearly 10,000Z.), consisting of new wing with tower, new class-rooms, library, housekeeper’s department, and the reconstruction of the dining hall. There is now ample accommodation for upwards of forty Students. It was not until the year 1782 that the Coun- tess of Huntingdon and her coadjutors formally seceded from the Church of England. The Rev. Thomas Wills and the Rev. William Taylor, who had been ordained in the Established Church, then withdrew from it under the protection of the “ Toleration Act,” and took the oaths of allegiance as Dissenting Ministers. They appear to have been the responsible authors of the well-known Fifteen Articles required by the Trust Deed to be sub- THEOLOGICAL COLLEGES. 395 scribed by the Trustees, Tutors, and Students of the College. On Sunday, the 9th of March, 1783, these Articles were publicly read at Spafields Chapel, at the ordination of ministers, in connexion with the Countess of Huntingdon ; and it was at the same time announced, that the Articles had on the day previous been signed, — first by the two ordaining ministers, Messrs. Wills and Taylor, and then by the six Students about to be ordained It is important to observe, that though the Articles are decidedly Cal- vinistic in their character, the Trust Deed is, with respect to Church Polity, most Catholic in its spirit and arrangements — empowering the Trustees to call to their assistance, on occasion of the election of Tutors, or the admis- sion of Students, “ one or more of the principal minister or ministers serving in the connexion of the late Countess of Huntingdon, or any other minister or ministers whom the Trustees for the time being shall think proper ; ” and providing, not only in general terms for the admission of Students to serve in the ministry “ at home or abroad, and either in the late Countess of Huntingdon’s Connexion or otherwise, as they afterwards shall think proper but distinctly intimating that “if such Student or Students shall prefer to be ordained, and serve in the Established Church, or other Churches of Christ, it shall and may be lawful for him or them, and he or they shall be at full and free liberty so to do.” Hence the following declaration of the Trustees and Committee, first occurring in the Annual Report for 1822, and since continuously repeated : “ The object of this Institution is not to serve the interests of a party ; but to promote the extension of the kingdom of Immanuel, by the publica- tion of His glorious Gospel and the doctrines of His grace ; and the young men who are educated at Cheshunt College are left entirely free in their choice of the denomination of Christians among whom they may prefer to exercise their ministry.” Students are admitted between the ages of 18 and 28, by Trustees and Committee, after examination of qualifications and testimonials, and after three months’ probation are educated gratuitously for from two to five years, paying, according to circumstances, from 1 51. to 40 Z. per annum for board. The vacations are three months in the year. There is one Scholar- ship, value 20Z., competed for every year. Principal , and Professor of Theology. — Rev. Henry R. Reynolds, D.D. Secretary. — Rev. H.

MEDICAL SCHOOLS. 40 5 OUR MEDICAL SCHOOLS. INTRODUCTORY REMARKS. The Medical Bill, introduced by the Duke of Richmond, has at length passed the House of Lords. The original intention of the Bill, as may be gleaned from the following statements, was to legalise the action of the English examining bodies in their formation of a conjoint Board, and also to render the adoption of a similar scheme, and of an examination fairly equivalent to that proposed for England, compulsory in Scotland and Ireland. The effect of this would have been that any person who had passed the examina- tion in either of the three countries should receive from any of the cor- porations composing it a Diploma which would entitle him to be registered and to act as a medical practitioner. The Bill, however, as at last amended, provides and enacts that every person who satisfies the requirements of a conjoint Board will receive from it a qualifying certificate which will entitle him to be placed upon the register, and to practise the Medical Profession. This scheme will greatly interfere with the powers and duties hitherto employed with so much advantage to the Medical Profession by those venerable Institutions, The Royal Colleges of Physicians and of Surgeons. These existing corporations will, however, supply the Examiners to the several conjoint Boards. Special provision is made for the Medical Examination of women. The medical graduates of the University of Dublin are obliged to undergo, in addition to the usual training in Medicine and Surgery, a further liberal training in Arts during four years, as it has been the invari- able practice of the University of Dublin to require graduation in Arts as a necessary preliminary to graduation in Medicine. The following opinions and particulars as to the original intention of the framers of the “Government Medical Act (1858) Amendment Bill,” the provisions of which have now passed the House of Lords, may be interesting to many, and will seriously affect the existing licensing system in Great Britain, for the General Medical Council have taken up the question of a “conjoint scheme of medical examination.” In 1870 this Council passed the following resolution : — “ That this Council is of opinion that a joint examining Board should be formed in each of three divisions of the kingdom, and that every person who desires to be registered under any of the qualifi- cations recognised in the Medical Act shall be required, previously to such registration, to appear before one of these Boards and be examined in all the subjects which may be deemed advisable by the Medical Council ; the rights and privileges of the Universities and Corporations being in all other respects the same as at present. The Council has subsequently sanctioned a scheme for an Examining Board for England, made in conformity with that resolution. The Council adheres to the principle of that resolution, and is of opinion that no medical legislation relating to examinations will be satis- factory which does not provide for the formation of an examining Board in 40 6 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. each of the three divisions of the kingdom, and direct that every person who desires to be registered under the Medical Act shall be required to appear before one of these Boards and be examined in the subjects which may be deemed necessary by the Medical Council.” At present examinations are committed “ to 19 various examining Boards throughout the kingdom, any one of which could grant diplomas to practise in any part of the kingdom.” The Council of the Royal College of Surgeons of England, ref erring to the “ Examination Rules for securing uniformity of examinations for qualifica- tion,” thus express their views : — “If it became law, the College would thenceforth not have authority to confer even a valid surgical diploma except in subordination to such examination rules as the General Medical Council, with the sanction of the Privy Counil, might have laid down. In commenting on these clauses, by which it is proposed so largely to disfranchise the College in favour of a central supremacy, the President and Vice-Presidents take as their prin- ciple that the magnitude of the sacrifice which is demanded of the College ought to be estimated as a question of proportion — with reference, namely, to the general scope and promise of the Bill in its bearing on public interests, and especially as regards the degree in which the Bill may be expected to secure, in the national system of licensing for the medical profession, cer- tain necessary and substantially final reforms. In this point of view, the President and Vice-Presidents have to submit to the Council that, in their opinion, the Bill does not offer any such promise of public advantage as to claim that the College should on that account make any considerable surrender of independence ; and they must even observe that in their opinion the reforms which are most wanted in the licensing system of the United Kingdom would perhaps be rather impeded than promoted by the passing of the Bill. For the Bill, if it became law, could hardly fail to be deemed an expression of indifference on the part of the Legislature to that which the largest and weightiest consent of skilled authority has long recognized to be the chief evil of the present system — the evil of 19 uncom- bined and (in principle) competing Examination Boards in the three divisions of the United Kingdom, with the privilege allowed to each separate authority to grant registrable titles which shall be valid through- out the British Empire.” The Royal College of Physicians of London have passed the following resolution : — “ The Bill having been introduced into the House of Lords by his Grace the Lord President on behalf of the Government, the provisions of which are of the utmost importance not only to the public and profession at large, but also especially to the Royal College of Physicians, it was deemed desirable to convene a special meeting of the College to consider those clauses of the Bill which have a direct bearing on the responsibilities and influence of the College. The attention of the College was called more particularly to clauses 3, 8, 9, 14, and 17. But before commenting on those clauses the College desires to express its extreme regret and dis- appointment that the Bill altogether fails to provide for that compulsory establishment of conjoint Examining Boards for each division of the United Kingdom which was recommended and urged on the medical authorities by the General Medical Council, for which the College has been strenuously labouring during many years, and which constituted the main feature of Lord Ripon’s Bill of some years ago. For the attainment of this object the College has spared neither time nor labour, has manifested its MEDICAL SCHOOLS. 407 readiness to sacrifice its own individual interests and independence of action, and has loyally co-operated with the other English authorities, believing that by so doing it was acting in the common interests of the profession and for the good of the public.” The Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh consider the proposals on the licensing system a disfranchisement of the College in favour of a central supremacy, but all the members representing English Universities and Colleges, support the motion of declaring in favour of Examining Boards in the three divisions of the kingdom in place of the teaching bodies examining their own pupils and giving diplomas to practise in any art of the kingdom upon varying examinations. There is a general feeling among the teachers of medicine in London, that the old charges for medical teaching are no longer enough to cover the cost of apparatus and to remunerate the teacher, and at a meeting of the representatives of every school in London, held recently, it was unani- mously resolved to commend to the consideration of the schools the pro- priety of raising the fees 25 per cent. The subject of medical education at Cambridge has been warmly taken up by the Syndicate, who have referred to the Board of Medical Studies the question whether it is desirable to found a complete medical school in Cambridge so as to make it possible for a student to complete his -whole medical course here, or whether it is better for all concerned, while making the teaching at Cambridge as perfect as possible in the scientific subjects which are the basis of medicine, to leave students to carry on elsewhere the greater part of their clinical studies and most of what relates directly to the practice of medicine. The reply of the Board of Medical Studies states that they consider it inexpedient that students should complete their whole professional education at any single medical school, and that it is therefore desirable that students should pursue their studies away from Cambridge for a year or more before commencing practice, either before or after their final M.B. examination. They believe, however, that it would be in most cases advantageous to students to carry their medical studies in Cambridge further than is usually done at present, and in some cases as far as the final M.D. examination, and they are therefore of opinion that the Uni- versity should provide systematic instruction in all the subjects necessary for a medical degree, as is done at other Universities. In order that this may be carried out satisfactorily the Board of Medical Studies think that the University should provide — 1. A Professor of Pathology. There seems to be no reason why the study of pathology should not be most thoroughly and effectively carried on in Cambridge. For this purpose the University should secure the services of the ablest man that can be obtained, who should devote his whole time and energies to his subject. To insure this he ought to be debarred from the private practice of medicine, though it would be most desirable that he should hold a hospital appointment. Under these circumstances he should have a stipend of not less than 700Z. a year. He would ultimately require a demonstrator. 2 A Professor of Surgery. As he need not be debarred from the private practice of surgery, a stipend of 300Z. a year would probably be found sufficient. 3. Systematic teaching in (1) midwifery and the diseases peculiar to women, (2) medical jurisprudence, (3) sanitary science, (4) mental diseases. This might pro- bably be provided for 700Z. a year, or thereabouts ; but some, at any rate, of these subjects might ultimately be represented by eminent men upon whom the University might confer the title and status of a Professor. 408 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. 4. Systematic clinical teaching. This is already supplied to a considerable extent by the physicians and surgeons to the hospital. It is, however, not definitely connected with the University or subject to academical regula- tions. The University might with advantage appoint (1) one or more clinical lecturers in medicine ; (2) one or more clinical lecturers in surgery; (3) an assistant teacher of medicine and one of surgery. It would be the special duty of the two assistant teachers to give systematic elementary instruction in clinical medicine and surgery to the younger students. Stipends of 100/. a year each would probably suffice for the present for these lecturers and teachers. Other special subjects, such as ophthalmic surgery, ought to be provided for in a medical school which aims at com- pleteness. Arrangements for reaching them might, however, be trusted to grow up with the growth of the school. GENERAL COUNCIL OF MEDICAL EDUCATION AND REGISTRATION OF THE UNITED KINGDOM.

The Laboratories are open from ten o’clock in the morning until five in the afternoon daily, except on Saturdays, when they are closed at two o’clock. They are fitted up with every convenience for the study of the principles of Chemistry by personal experiment. They are specially designed for the student of Pharmacy, but are equally well adapted for the acquirement of a knowledge of Chemistry in its applica- tion to medicine, manufactures, analysis, or original research. There is no general class for simultaneous instruction, each Student following an independent course of study always determined by his previous knowledge; pupils can therefore enter for any period at any date. A complete course of instruction, including the higher branches of quantitative analysis, occupies ten full months, and dated from the day of entry to that day twelvemonth. Fees : 10 to 5 daily (Saturdays 10 to 2), one month, 4Z. 4s. ; two months, 7Z. 7s.; three months, 10Z. 10s. ; five months, 15Z. 15s.; ten months, 26Z. 5s.

In the event of none of the collections possessing sufficient merit to justify the Council in awarding medals or certificates, none will be given. Council Prizes. — At the end of each of the five months’ Courses of Lectures on Chemistry and Pharmacy, and Botany and Materia Medica, a Bronze Medal and Certificates of Merit, and at the close of the Session (ten months) a Silver Medal and Certificates of Honour and Merit, are offered for competition by the Council to all Students connected with the Society. In the Class of Practical Chemistry, a Silver Medal, two Bronze Medals, and Certificates of Honour and Merit, offered by the Council, are competed for at the end of the Session only, by Students connected with the Society.

It is usual to take at least one Medical and one Surgical qualification ; MEDICAL SCHOOLS. 419 and the Student will probably become a Member of the College of Surgeons for the latter purpose, while his choice of a Medical qualification must de- pend somewhat on his abilities and opportunities. No qualification can be obtained until after the age of 21; but the amount of professional study required is not the same for all the examining bodies. Thus the Diplomas of the College of Physicians, the College of Surgeons, and of the Apothe- caries’ Society, can be obtained after four years’ professional study at an Hospital, and the Degree of M.B. of the London University after four years and a half of Hospital study, — provided that the Matriculation Examina- tion is passed before entry at the Hospital, and the Student is able to pass the Preliminary Scientific and the first M. B. Examinations within his first two years. Advantage may be often gained by attendance on the special courses for the Preliminary Scientific Examination, with the object of passing it before entering upon the usual Anatomical and Physiological studies. PRELIMINARY EXAMINATION IN ARTS. Before entering upon the strictly professional work, it will be necessary to pass a Preliminary Examination in Arts, as hospital studies undertaken before a certificate of knowledge in the subjects of general education has been obtained are not recognized by the examining bodies. This certificate may be one of graduation in Arts at one of the following Universities : — Oxford, Cambridge, Dublin, London, Durham, Queen’s University in Ireland, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Aberdeen, and S. Andrew’s. Calcutta, Madras, and Bombay. Canada — McGill College, Montreal ; and Queen’s College, Kingston. Australia — University of Adelaide. Or it may be a certificate of one of the following Examinations . — * Oxford. Responsions or Moderations. Local examinations, senior and junior, the certificates to include Latin and Mathematics.

Should the Student not have passed any one of the examinations above enumerated, he should pass one of the three following examinations : — Matriculation of the London University. Preliminary in Arts at the College of Surgeons. Preliminary in Arts at the Society of Apothecaries. Of these, the matriculation examination of the London University is to be recommended, as it is the only one of the three which admits to the s ibsequent examinations for Degrees in the University, and for the Fellow- ship of the College of Surgeons without additional examination.

Considerable discussion, and in many quarters some consternation, has been created by the proposed changes involved in the new Medical Amend- ment Act, which, if passed, will prevent Physicians who have not graduated at a recognised University from using the title of “ Doctor.” It would thereby affect thousands of practitioners, many of them doubly qualified, who will have to remove the prefix “ Doctor,” and be no longer addressed by that title. The term “Doctor” implies the possession of a degree from a University, and the College of Physicians a few years ago passed a resolution that even their own Fellows were not to be called “Doctors” unless they possessed such degree, still it should not affect those practi- tioners wli3se professional status has become recognised in our midst, and it would be great injustice thus to interfere with the titles they have en- joyed by custom, if not by right, in many instances for a long period of years. 4 2 4 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. THE RIGHTS AND PRIVILEGES OF CHEMISTS AND DRUGGISTS. According to the legal interpretation, the medical profession is divided into four classes, viz.: 1. The physician, whose title of “Doctor ” it is now intended to cancel, unless he has an University degree. 2. The ordinary Surgeon. 3. The Apothecary. And the fourth rank in the profession is the Chemist’s and Druggist’s; and as this latter sometimes acts as a practitioner in cases in w T hich he considers himself fitted to treat, it is intended that some specific legal regulation he issued to prevent Chemists from having such discretionary powers. Long before the Act of 1815 the apothecary was what the druggist after- wards became — “ that is, he culled his simples himself in the fields, dried them in his apotheke or place in which he deposited them, and from thence administered them.” But before 1815 the apothecary, besides being him- self a seller, had acquired the habit, though not the technical right, of attending people, advising them, and giving them medicines. “ The general practitioner of to-day, ” according to Mr. Justice Field’s view, “ is an apothe- cary as created by the Act of Parliament of 1815. ” After the Act, and by the terms of it, the practice of the apothecary is described as an “ art, mystery, or faculty,” and it is distinguished from the “trade or business” of a chemist or druggist by being closed to all who have not undergone a special training and passed a severe examination. Speaking generally, chemists have honourably kept within their legitimate sphere of buisness, and whatever necessary reulgations may be instituted in connection with their calling would doubtless receive their full support and cordial co-operation. DENTAL EDUCATION. 425 OUll MEDICAL SCHOOLS. — ♦ — S. THOMAS’S HOSPITAL MEDICAL SCHOOL AND SURGICAL COLLEGE, WESTMINSTER BRIDGE, LONDON. President. — H.R.H. the Duke of Connaught, K.G. All accounts agree in attributing the origin of S. Thomas’s Hospital to circumstances more or less accidental. In Stow’s “Survey of London,” we find that “ a fire happened in the Borough of Southwark in the year 1207, which destroying the Priory of S. Mary Overie, the Canons erected an Hospital hard by for the celebration of divine service, till their Monastery could be rebuilt ; which they soon after accomplishing, Peter de Rupibus, or De la Roche, Bishop of Winchester, for the greater convenience of air and water, removed the said Hospital in the year 1215, and erected it in a place where Richard, Prior of Bermondsey, but two years before had built an Almonry or Almshouse for the reception of indigent children and necessitous proselytes; and having dedicated the same to S. Thomas the Apostle, endowed it with land to the amount of three hundred and forty- three pounds per annum. From this time, Golding truly says, nothing of importance occurred either in the government or revenues of S. Thomas’s Hospital until the 26th year of Henry VIII., when an estimate was formed of the latter, which were found to amount to the annual sum of 347£. 3 s. §d. It is not to be wondered at that we have so little to record during these early times; for the “ Hospitium” dependent on the rich Abbey of Bermondsey was, as the name strictly implies, more an Almshouse than an Hospital. No doubt the sick found their way into it with other distressed persons ; and no doubt some learned monk, using the shelter and leisure of the cloister for researches in alchemy and medicine, was told off* to minister to their physical necessities. The brotherhood of the Rosy Cross, to which Gower, now lying in the neighbouring church, belonged, was intimately connected with the early quest after arcana and elixirs of life which represented the science of the time. In the year 1535, Henry VIII. was excommunicated by Pope Paul III , and, declaring himself head of the Church, he proceeded to dissolve the Catholic houses, whose large revenues went to the Crown. There seemed to have been 645 monasteries and abbeys thus treated, twenty-eight of which had abbots with seats in Parliament, ninety colleges and free chapels, and 110 hospitals of various descriptions. It is certainly in favour of the sweeping change that so able and honest a man as Sir Richard Gresham, the Lord Mayor of London, should have put his hand to the following petition to the King : — “ Most redoubted, puysant, and noble Prince * * * * — nere and within the cytie of London be iij hospitalls or spytells, commonly called Seynt Georges Spytell, Seynt Barthilmews Spytell, and Seynt Thomas Spytell, and the new Abbey of Tower Hill, founded of good devotion by auncient 426 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. fathers, and endowed with great possessions and rents only for the reliefe, comforte, and helping of the poore and impotent people lying in every street, offending every clene persone passing by the way with theyre fylthy and nasty savors. Wherefore may it please your merciful goodness, enclyned to pytie and compassion, for the reliffe of Xts very images created to his own similitude, to order by your high authoritie, as supreme head of this Church of England, or otherwise by your sage discretion, that your mayer of your cytie of London, and his brethren the aldermen for the time being, shall and may from henceforth have the order, disposition, rule and governaunce, both 01 all the lands, tenements, and revenues apperteynyng and belongyn to the said Hospitals, governors of them, and of the ministers which be or shall be withyn any of them, and then your grace shall facilie perceyve that where now a small number of Ohanons, Priests, and Monkes be founde for theyr own profitt only, and not for the common utilitie of the realme, a great number of pooro, needy, syke and indugent persones shall be refreshed, maynteyned, and comforted; and also healed and cured of their infermities frankly and freely by physi- clons, surgeons and potycaries, which shall have stipende and salarie only for that purpose ; so that all impotent persones not able to labour shall be releved, and all sturdy beggars not willing to labour shall be punished.” It is from the death of Henry that the connection of S. Thomas’s Hospital with the City of London appears to begin. To meet the needs of the sick and destitute, who had before depended on the charity of the religious houses, a Committee or Board of Inquiry was instituted by the citizens, with the sanction of King Edward. About 2,100 souls were reported as fit recipients of relief, as fatherless children and invalids, or as “Idle Rogues of both sexes who were levying contributions on public sympathy by feigned tales of sorrow.” It was proposed to establish receptacles for each class in the unoccupied monastic buildings, and a pecuniary contribution was set on foot to complete the work. They bought the dissolved houses of the Franciscans or Grey Friars near S. Bartholomew’s Hospital, and also by charter from the King received a grant as follows : “ That the said mayor, commonalty, and citizens, and their successors, may have and enjoy all the franchises, immunities, and privileges whatever, which any Archbishop of Canterbury, and which the said Charles late Duke of Suffolk, or any master, brethren, or sisters of the late Hospital of S. Thomas in Southwark as aforesaid ; or any Abbot of the said monastery of S. Saviour, Saint Mary Bermondsey, next South- wark aforesaid, or any prior and convent of the priory of S. Mary Overie, ever had or enjoyed, or which we hold or enjoy, or our most dear father Henry the VUIth, late King of England, or had enjoyed, or ought to have, hold, and enjoy the same ; and that none of our heirs or successors may intermeddle with this our grant.” The Greyfriars became Christ’s Hospital, and the Southwark site, the Hospital of the Holy Trinity or S. Thomas’s. The Lord Mayor and certain citizens then met on the 6th of October, 1552, and constituted themselves by royal permission governors of the hospitals, and almoners of the money collected. The Hospital of the Holy Trinity they named, in compliment to Edward, the “King’s Hospital,” and ordained it to receive 260 “wounded soldiers, blind, maimed, sick, and helpless objects.” They also directed that 380 children should be received into Christ’s Hospital. MEDICAL SCHOOLS. 427 To complete tlie scheme, the old palace of Bridewell, in Blackfriars, where the Emperor Charles V. had lodged in 1522, when on a visit to Henry VIII., and where subsequently Wolsey had lived, was granted to the City by Edward as a house of correction for dissolute persons and idle apprentices, and for the temporary maintenance of distressed vagrants. Lastly, the lands lately belonging to the Palace of the Savoy were con- ferred jointly on the three foundations ; and, a month only before the end of Edward’s short reign, he incorporated by a second charter bearing date the 6th of June, 1553, the Lord Mayor and commonalty of the City of London in succession as perpetual governors of Saint Bartholomew’s, Christ’s, Bridewell, and the King’s Hospital (which last received the name of S. Thomas the Apostle), and secured to them the possession of all the estates and revenues appertaining to them by previous deeds of gift. So were the royal hospitals founded. I 11 1557 the laws were framed and printed under the name of “The Order of the Hospitals of K. Henry the VIII. and K. Edward the VI., viz., S. Bartholomew’s, Christ’s, Bridewell, S. Thomas’s. By the Maior, Cominaltie, and Citizens of London,” etc. It is a matter of more difficulty to trace the early history of the medical school in connection with the hospital. For the facts which follow I am indebted to the late R. G. Whitfield, Esq., who, from the long period during which his family had been associated with this foundation, was perhaps more qualified to speak than any other person, The earliest mention in the hospital books of an apprentice is on Decem- ber 31st, 1561. It is not until 1702 that a law is met with precluding pupils or surgeons from dissecting the dead body without permission from the treasurer. In 1703 the grand committee resolved that no surgeon should have more than three “ Cubbs,” a term altered in 1758 to that of “Dressers.” Besides these there were also apprentices to the surgeons of the hospital, and ordinary pupils. The first mention of lectures occurs soon after the appointment of Wm. Cheselden, in 1718. These he at first gave at his own house, but afterwards by permission in the hospital. They were on anatomy and surgery. In 1723 a regular registry was ordered to be kept by the apothecary, of pupils entering to surgical practice. In 1725, Guy’s Hospital was opened for the reception of patients. In 1751, the assistant physician was allowed to take two pupils for his own benefit. In 1768, an additional surgeon, Mr. Joseph Else, was elected to read lectures to the pupils. ' The students of Guy’s Hospital had by courtesy been allowed to attend the operations, and a similar favour admitted the S. Thomas’s men to those at Guy’s. But on the 8th November, 1768, it -was formally resolved that the pupils of each hospital have the liberty of attending not only the operations, but surgical practice, and the money to be divided between the six surgeons and two apothecaries. Hence the appellation of the “ United Hospitals an amalgamation never extended beyond the surgical practice. From its foundation down to the year 1862, the Hospital occupied the original site near London Bridge, but in that year the property was sold for the extension of the railway accommodation, and the establishment temporarily removed to the Surrey Gardens, where it was carried on till the summer of 1871. In 1868 the first stone of the new hospital at West- minster Bridge was laid by the Queen, and the completed building was 428 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. opened by Her Majesty in 1871. In September the patients were first admitted into the new hospital, and the Medical School was opened on October 2nd. The original hospital latterly contained 500 beds. The present building contains in all 572 beds. It consists of six blocks appropriated to the recep- tion of patients ; with one for the administrative and other offices, and one for the Medical School. The Ward blocks, though connected by corridors, stand apart, so as to afford free exposure in all directions. The Wards, with the exception of four which are placed on the ground floor, occupy the first, second, and third floors. Generally, each Ward affords accommodation for 28 beds, which are placed against the piers between the windows, so as to secure thorough ventilation. In a small Ward annexed to each larger Ward, there are two beds for cases requiring special care or treatment. During the twelvemonths ending December 31st, 1880, the number of patients admitted into the Hospital amounted to 4,081. In the same period, 21,532 out-patients have been treated, and in the Maternity Depart- ment 2,136 women have been attended at their own homes. Casualties, to the number of 43,054 attendances, were treated during the same period. The School buildings stand at the southern extremity of the Hospital, from which they are quite isolated. They coatain ample accommodation for large classes of students. The Museum is one of the most important in the metropolis. There is a large Reading Room and Library for the use of the pupils. In addition to these are the various Lecture Rooms, the Dissecting Rooms, the Laboratories for Practical Physiology and for practical Chemistry, and the Post-mortem Rooms. At the opening address in 1880, Dr. Ord, the Dean of the Medical School, chose as his subject “Medical Education,” chiefly from the parent and student’s point of view. The studies, he said, should include the classics as well as modern languages, history, geography, mathematics, and natural philosophy. Referring to natural science, he maintained that it ought to form part of the school schedule. A boy should not go direct from school to the hospital. There should be a course of study between the school life and the hospital life. It was a great plunge for a boy to suddenly leave the moral restraint and supervision of school life for the freedom of the hospital. It was highly desirable that a common college should be formed in London in connection with our medical schools, where the sciences should be taught, leaving the teaching of pure medicine and surgery, with perhaps anatomy and physiology, to the hospital schools.

GUY’S HOSPITAL MEDICAL SCHOOL, S. THOMAS STREET, BOROUGH, S.E. This Hospital was founded, a.d. 1722, by Thomas Guy, at his “sole cost and charges.” He was born in the year 1645, and in the year 1660 he was bound apprentice to Mr. John Clarke, a bookseller in the Porch of Mercer’s Chapel in Cheapside. In 1668 he became a Freeman of the City of London, and of the Stationers’ Company, and started in business with a capital of about 200Z., at “ the little corner house of Lombard Street and Cornhill.” Five years later he became a Liveryman of the Stationers’ Com- pany. His business flourished, and he gradually acquired considerable wealth. In course of time he was chosen Sheriff of London ; but he paid the fine and declined to serve. In the year 1695 he entered Parliament as Member for Tamworth ; and he subsequently sat in all Parliaments from the third of William III. to the first of Queen Anne. “ His private acts of charity were many and great.” To many of his poor though distant rela- tions he made stated yearly allowances of greater or less amount. He fre- quently accomplished the discharge from prison, and reinstatement in business, of insolvent debtors, who at that period were liable to very harsh treatment. He was constantly ready to advance money, without charge for interest, to enable young men, whom he knew to be deserving, to start in business. “When he met with such diseased and friendless objects as wanted the help of an Hospital, he used to send them to S. Thomas’s (of which institution he was a Governor), with directions to the Steward to supply them at his expense with clothes and such other necessaries as are not provided by the Hospital.” Among his more public acts of benevolence the following may be mentioned : — He made large benefactions to the Stationers’ Company and to Christ’s Hospitah He built, maintained during his life, and endowed by his will, almshouses, and a Free Library at Tamworth. In 1707 he built and furnished three Wards, in S. Thomas’s Hospital, for the reception of sixty-four patients, and contributed one hundred pounds yearly towards their support. At a later period he expended some three thousand pounds further in improvements or repairs of the same Hospital, or in addition to its funds. In 1720 he proceeded to carry out the scheme, viz., the foundation of the Hospital which bears his name ; and he leased from the Governors of S. Thomas’s Hospital, for the term of 999 years, the piece of ground upon which he proposed to build, and which forms an important portion of the site of the present Hospital. On the 24th September, 1724, Guy made his will. He survived long enough to see the building completed ; and then, on the 27th December, he died at the age of 80 years. In little more than a week the Hospital was opened ; and on Thursday, 6th January, 1725, 60 patients were admitted. On the 6th April following, the first Committee of Governors was held ; and on the 9th, two Physicians and two Surgeons were formally appointed. The Hospital now contains accommodation for 695 patients. The Sur- gical Wards, including those for accidents and for venereal diseases, and the Operating Theatre, are in the “ Old Building” (I). The General Medical Wards are in the New Building, which also contains the Ophthalmic Wards with 50, and the Obstetric Wards with 26 beds, as well as spacious dormi- MEDICAL SCHOOLS. 433 tories for the nurses, the out-patients’ rooms, and a ward which is reserved for use in case of extra pressure from epidemics, and in order to allow of the other wards being at intervals purified and left empty for a time. By his will, Guy bequeathed the residue of his property for the endow- ment of his Hospital, and to provide for the maintenance in it of four hundred patients. The sum expended during his lifetime in the building and furnishing of the Hospital, together with that received for its endow- ment under his will, amounted to little short of two hundred and fifty thousand pounds. The benefits conferred on the world by this munificent Foundation are incalculable, and are ever increasing. And the memory of the Founder may well be held in reverence. On the 8th February, 1828, William Hunt, Merchant and Citizen of London, and for many years an influential Governor of this Hospital, added a codicil to his will, by which about 180,000Z. came to the funds of the Hospital at his death in 1829. Three windows of stained glass have been recently placed in the Chapel by the Governors, commemorative of this munificent benefaction. The Chapel, in which Sunday and week-day services are held, affords ac- commodation for Students, as well as for other members of the Institution. It contains a fine statue of the Founder by Bacon, tablets in memory of Sir Astley Cooper and of Dr. Addison, and the windows of stained glass, already mentioned, in memory of Mr. Hunt. The School of Medicine and Surgery attached to Guy’s Hospital may be considered to date its formal commencement from about the year 1769, when a resolution was approved by the Governors to the effect that all such persons as shall be chosen Surgeons of this Hospital shall occasionally give Lectures on Surgery to the pupils that 'shall be entered at this Hospital.” In the year 1768, it was resolved ‘‘that the barrier between this Hospital and S. Thomas’s be taken down, and that the pupils of S. Thomas’s have free leave to see not only the operations but also all the other practice of this Hospital.” Corresponding advantages were afforded to the pupils of this Hospital by the authorities of S. Thomas’s. Thus was established the union of the Schools of Guy’s and S. Thomas’s — a union maintained until such comparatively recent date that very many alumni of “ The United Hospitals ” still survive. Some of the courses of lectures (notably those on Surgery) were given at S. Thomas’s ; others (notably those on Medicine) at Guy’s ; and the practice of both Hospitals was open to the pupils of each. In the beginning of the year 1825 circumstances arose which led to the dissolution of the union, and by a resolution of the Governors, the Treasurer of Guy’s was “ requested and authorized to make such arrange- ments as he may find necessary to provide for and place the Surgical School of this Hospital, in all its departments, on the most respectable and efficient footing.” In accordance with this resolution, and under the direction of the Treasurer, the erection of a block of buildings containing the Anatomical Theatre, the Museum, a Dissecting Room, and other requisite offices, was promptly executed, at a cost of about 8,000Z. On the 21st of June, 1826, the Treasurer reported “ all the school buildings ready and occupied.” From this period dates the establishment of “ Guy’s” as an independent and complete medical school, affording oppor- tunities for study and means of instruction, not only in medicine and surgery, but also in all the various allied sciences, in accordance with the prescribed curricula of the Examining and Licensing Corporations, and the YOL. I. 28 434 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. requirements of the Public Services. Important alterations in the arrange- ments, and additions to the buildings, have been made from time to time, with the view to meet as completely as possible increasing demands. Instruction is given in all branches of Medical Science required by the Universities and Examining Boards. Special classes are held in the Hospital for Students preparing for the Examinations of the University of London and of the College of Surgeons. The Museums of Anatomy, Pathology, and Comparative Anatomy contain 11,000 specimens, 4,500 drawings and diagrams, an unique collection of anatomical models, and a series of 600 models of skin diseases. About 2,500 cases are annually attended by the Students in connection with the lying-in charity. REGULATIONS RESPECTING STUDENTS. Gentlemen desirous of becoming Students must produce satisfactory testimony as to their education and conduct. Students are required to con- form to the rules and regulations for the internal management of the Hos- pital. Several of the Lecturers have vacancies for resident private pupils: There are several Scholarship prizes and medals granted to Students annually — two open Scholarships, each of 125 guineas, ( 1 ) in Classics, Mathematics, and Modern Languages ; ( 2 ) in Chemistry, Physics, Botany, and Zoology. There are also six Scholarships, varying in value from 10Z. to 50 1. each, and are awarded at the close of each Summer Session for general proficiency in medical study. Two gold medals are given by the Treasurer, one for medicine and one 'for surgery, and there are other prizes and rewards. COURSE OF STUDY ADVISED TO STUDENTS. On receiving his card of admission to lectures and practice, the Student should proceed as soon as possible to register it at the College of Surgeons, Lincoln’ s-inn-fields, and at the Apothecaries’ Hall, Blackfriars. It is also necessary to register at the office of the General Medical Council, 415, Oxford Street ; the Student may effect this by filling up a form in the office at Guy’s Hospital, and leaving with it the certificate of his Pre- liminary Examination. These are then sent up, with those of other Students, to the Medical Council Office, and the Examination Certificate and a Certificate of registration are returned to the Student at a later date, At the College of Surgeons and the Apothecaries’ Hall the Student must attend personally within fifteen days from the commencement .of the Session. Students who intend to take a Degree in the University of London should defer entering the Hospital until they have matriculated, may with ad- vantage pass the Preliminary Scientific Examination before commencing the usual courses of anatomy and physiology. If, however, they have only matri- culated, then the first year should be devoted to learning the rudiments of Human Anatomy, and attending the courses of Chemistry, Physics, Botany, and Comparative Anatomy, in preparation for the Preliminary Scientific Ex- amination. Special classes in each of these subjects are held, and Examination papers given. After this Examination has been passed, the second year should be devoted to Anatomy, Physiology, and the other subjects of the first M.B. Examination, and until this is passed it is advisable not to undertake any higher appointments than those of Assistant Surgeon’s Clerk, Surgical Ward Clerk, and perhaps Dresser in the Surgery.

This Hospital was founded in the year 1123 by Rayhere, minstrel of Henry I., in connection with his foundation of the Church and Priory of S. Bartholomew. He designed his charity — ‘ Ad omnes pauperes infirmos ad idem hospitale confluentes quousque de infirmitatibus suis convaluerint, ac mulieres prsegnantes quousque de puerperio surrexerint, necnon ad omnes pueros de eisdem mulieribus genitos, usque septennium, si dicta) mulieres intra hospitale prsedictum decesserint. ’ The present annual value of the endowment of School and Hospital is 50,000£. At the suppression of monasteries in 1537 the Priory and Hospital, and their revenues, came into the possession of Henry VIII., who, in 1544, at the petition of Sir Richard Gresham, Lord Mayor of London, and father of Sir Thomas Gresham, refounded the Hospital by Royal Charter, and endowed it with the greater portion of its former revenues ; being ‘ moved thereto with great pity for and towards the relief and succour and help of the poor, aged, sick, low, and impotent people .... lying and going about MEDICAL SCHOOLS. 437 begging in the common streets of the city of London and the suburbs of the same,’ and ‘infected with divers great and horrible sicknesses and diseases.’ At the granting of the Charter the Hospital contained 100 beds, and its medical staff consisted of a Physician and three Surgeons. From this its second foundation, S. Bartholomew’s Hospital has in- creased in 300 years to more than six times its original extent ; and the opportunities which, as it increased, it afforded for the study of disease, did not escape the learned and benevolent men who attended on the sick within its walls. They taught at the bedside, and gave lectures on the most important subjects of medical and surgical science and practice. William Harvey, the discoverer of the circulation of the blood, was ap- pointed physician to the Hospital in 1609, and held his office thirty-four years, highly honoured and esteemed by the Governors. The rules which he laid down for the duties of the medical officers of the Hospital were adhered to for nearly a century after his retirement. Referring to this great discoverer, it may be interesting to record that he was born at Folkestone on the, 1st of April, 1578, and was educated at Canterbury School and at Caius College, Cambridge. He became a Fellow of the College of Physicians and was afterwards apppointed Lumleian Lecturer to the College and Physician-Extraordinary to King James I. He was also the Physician-in -Ordinary to Charles I. During the Civil War his house in London was plundered, and papers containing the results of his anatomical and physiological investigations were destroyed. In 1657 he resigned his Lumleian Lectureship ; and in the following year, the eightieth of his age, he died. The movements of the blood, and the functions of the heart and blood-vessels, were wholly unknown until Harvey solved the problem ; and the importance of this discovery to Medical Science cannot be adequately estimtaed, for the whole fabric of modern Surgery rests upon it. The late Dr. Parkes affirmed that “ the explanation of the actions of the heart and of the circulation of the blood is not only one of those cardinal discoveries which lie at the very foundation of physiology and medicine, but is from its very nature one of those great landmarks which must remain in the sight of all.” A banquet was held at the Royal College of Physicians in May, 1878, in honour of the three hundredth anniversary of the birth of this great dis- coverer ; and it was decided to mark the tercentenary of Harvey’s birth by the erection of a monument worthy his memory. Professor Huxley, in a very eloquent speech, referred to the life and labours of Harvey, of his claims as a philosopher and discoverer, and of the methods by which he worked for the attainment of the truths which it was his privilege to disclose. He also paid a fitting tribute to the high personal qualities which had won for him the esteem and regard of his fellow- workers and the men of his own time. Although the actual commencement of a Medical School is not recorded, it appears that in 1662 students were in the habit of attending the medical and surgical practice of the Hospital ; and their studies were assisted by the formation, five years afterwards, of a Library ‘for the use of the Governors and young University scholars.’ In 1843 the Governors founded a College, to afford the pupils the moral advantages, together with the convenience, of a residence within the walls of the Hospital, and to supply them with ready guidance and assistance in their studies. This establishment has been enlarged to nearly twice its original extent. The Church of S. Bartholomew-the-Less, which is within the Hospital walls, was restored in 1865. 438 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. In 1872 Sir Sydney Waterlow gave Lauderdale House and grounds at Highgate for use as a Convalescent Hospital for a term of years. In 1877 an institution was opened for the training of nurses in con- nexion with the Hospital. The Clinical Practice of the Hospital now comprises a service of 710 beds : of these, 227 are allotted to the Medical Cases, 322 to the Surgical Cases, 26 to Diseases of the Eye, 20 to the Diseases of Women, and,, 86 to the Syphilitic ; while 34 are at the Convalescent Hospital at Highgate. Children are admitted into both the Medical and Surgical Wards, those under 5 years of age being received into the female wards. In the year 1876, relief was afforded to 5,652 in-patients, and 147,441 out- patients, besides women attended in their confinements at their own homes. THE COLLEGE. It is part of the duties of the Warden to direct particularly the studies of the Resident Students ; but it is recommended that in questions relating to their education all Students should seek his advice. By applying to the Warden, Students will obtain information respecting rooms in College, or will be advised respecting residence out of the Hospital, as gentlemen connected with the Hospital receive Students to board in their houses. Students attending the practice of the Hospital, or the Lectures in the Medical School, will be admitted to residence in the College on the recommendation of a Medical Officer of the Hospital. Students commenc- ing their attendance at the Hospital or College may obtain such recommend- ations on adducing satisfactory evidence of good moral character. Each Student shall pay an Entrance Fee of Two Guineas, and subscribe his readiness to submit to all the Regulations of the College and of the Hospital. Resident Students are expected to dine in the Hall every day. Non-Resident Students may dine in the Hall, if they give notice. A Student may not, without the consent of the Warden, give up his rooms in the course of a Term. (The Terms are three in each year : namely, one extending from the commencement of the Winter Session in October to the commencement of the Christmas Vacation ; another from the conclusion of the same Vacation to the conclusion of the 'Winter Session at the end of March; and the third from the commencement of the Summer Session in May to the conclusion of the same in July.) For the terms of Board and Residence, and all other information regard- ing the College, application should be made, either personally or by letter to the Warden. There are two Scholarships of the value of 100Z. each, tenable for one year, and many other Scholarships, one of 80Z., two of 50 l. each, four of 3 51. each, one of 30£., and one of 201., besides exhibitions and prizes.

This Hospital contains 305 beds, and there are special departments for diseases of women and children, the eye, the throat, and ear, the skin and the teeth, and a special department for the reception of patients suffering from cancer, which affords accommodation for 33 in-patients. They are admitted without letters of recommendation, and their period of residence in the Hospital is unlimited. Two Entrance Scholarships, value 2 .51. and 20 1. respectively, are awarded annually at the beginning of the Winter Session, after an Examination in Classics, Mathematics, or Natural Science. The Broderip Scholarships, value 301. and 20 1., are awarded annually to those Students who pass the most satisfactory examination at the bedside, and in the post-mortem room, and a prize, value 10Z. 10s., is given to the Candidate standing third in the competition. There is a Science Scholar- ship of the value of 50 1. The Governors’ Prize of 21Z. is annually awarded to the most diligent Student throughout the entire curriculum. Class Prizes are also given, and there are valuable rewards in the form of nine Resident Appointments. The Tutor daily assists Students in their studies free of charge, thus rendering private teaching apart from the School un- necessary. The fee for the entire curriculum is 90£., which may be paid by instalments. Gentlemen who have completed one year of study at one of the Universities may become perpetual pupils on payment of 551. Parents and guardians who propose sending pupils to the Hospital may obtain information from Mr. Andrew Clark, the Dean, or from the Resident Medical Officer, at the Hospital. The Dean attends in the Board Room of the Hospital at one o’clock p.m. daily, from September 20th to October 14th, for the purpose of admitting Students and issuing tickets of admission to Hospital Practice and Lectures. It is most desirable that Students who propose to enter at the College for the Winter Session should do so on as early a day as possible, in order that they may register their names at the office of the Medical Council, 315 442 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. Oxford Street, W., and at the Royal College of Surgeons, before the expira- tion of the appointed time. Some of the Lecturers receive Students as Resident Pupils ; for par- ticulars, application should be made to the Dean. During the past year 2,369 patients were admitted into the Wards of the Hospital. The number of out-patients during the same period amounted to 24,467. Upwards of 500 Midwifery cases were attended under the super- intendence of the Obstetric Physician during last year. The Medical College attached to the Hospital provides the most complete means for the education of Students who are preparing for the examinations of the University of London, the Colleges of Physicians and Surgeons, and the Society of Apothecaries.

This Hospital was founded in 1828 as the University Dispensary, and intended to give “medical and surgical advice, and administer medicines, gratuitously to poor persons suffering under disease of any description.” It was in 1833 re-established as the North London Hospital. The Council of the University College, London, with the consent of the Proprietors, gave as their contribution a most eligible plot of ground, valued at 7,000Z., contiguous to the University. The first stone was laid by His Grace the Duke of Somerset on the 22nd May, 1833, and the Hospital was opened for the reception of patients on the 1st November, 1834, for the “Relief of poor sick and maimed persons, and the delivery of poor married women at their own habitations.” It is a general hospital, and includes separate depart- ments for diseases of women and of children ; also for diseases of the skin, the eye, the ear, the throat, and the teeth. During the year 1877, upwards- of 18,000 patients were relieved, 2,131 of which number were in-patients. The students at the Hospital go through a regular course of instruction, in the first instance, for two years at the University College ; and to establish the connexion between the Hospital and the College, the Council of Uni- versity College, of which practically the Hospital is the Medical School, gave it the name of the “North London or University College Hospital,” - by which title it is now known and called. The particulars of “ University College” will be found in Part III. Like many kindred Institutions, it is greatly in want of additional funds. By the melancholy death of Sir Francis Goldsmid in 1878, it lost one of its chief benefactors, for in addition to the legacy of 40,000Z. to the College and 10,000Z. to the Hospital, his annual subscriptions were more than the interest on that sum. The President at a recent meeting stated that the College deserved sup- port, not only on the same grounds as other charitable institutions, but because it was a great school, and its medical activity was very great. The average number of patients treated per bed at Hospitals in London is 9*2 per year per bed. At the LTniversity College Hospital it is 13‘3, for 2,131 patients were passed through 160 beds. It was, therefore, the most costly Hospital, each bed costing over 70Z. a year ; while the average cost in other hospitals was about 60Z. Its expense was therefore 15 per cent, above the average, but its activity was 30 per cent, above the average. While pupils were taught in it, they were not allowed to try their ’prentice hands on patients. It could not be said as of old — “ I had, O Symmachus, a simple pain. You came, a hundred students in your train ; A hundred probing fingers pressed my brow. I had no fever then ; I have it now.” The pupils were not in the modern well-conducted Hospital allowed to- probe, but only to alleviate suffering. The patients were grateful to them, and often knew not the name of the great physician who had directed their treatment, but only that of the house surgeon or house physician who had attended them. University College was the first Hospital in which pro- motion did not go by purchase. A dresser had to pay a large sum, and other officers had to pay 500Z. or 1,000Z. for apprenticeship. This Hospital first had la carriere ouverte aux talents. The establishment of that principle 444 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. was most beneficent. Hospitals were to a certain extent on their trial now, a Royal Commission was even spoken of to inquire into their administra- tion ; and there was some foundation for such an inquiry. In matters of management, routine had set in in some hospitals; in matters of construction their own Hospital suffered from having been built in the pre-sanitary age. They wanted 4,000Z. or 5,000Z. to place it in such a position as to satisfy the sanitary requirements of the day. Money was also wanted for a con- valescent institution. In 1876-77, 18,077 patients were relieved, 15,946 being out-patients. The course of study is similar to that pursued at the other leading hospitals, and every Medical Student must be registered in the manner prescribed by the General Medical Council, and no Medical Student shall be registered until he has passed a preliminary examination as required by the General Medical Council. There are three Entrance Exhibitions of the respective values of 100Z., 60Z., and 40Z. per annum, tenable for two years. There are two Scholarships, one of 45Z. per annum, tenable for three years, and one of 70Z. per annum ; one prize of the value of 30Z., besides many other prizes and medals of less value. COMPOSITION FEES FOR THE ENTIRE COURSE OF ATTEND- ANCE IN COLLEGE AND HOSPITAL prescribed for the Licence of the College of Physicians, for the Diploma of the College of Surgeons, and for the Licence of the Society of Apothecaries : 125 guineas, if paid in one sum at the commencement of the course, or 180 guineas, if paid by instalments, as follows: First year, 60 guineas; second year, 50 guineas ; third year, 20 guineas. These fees admit to perpetual attendance upon Hospital Practice, and upon the Lectures in Anatomy, Physiology, Chemistry, Surgery, Medicine, ■and Midwifery, and to three years’ Practical Anatomy ; to one Course each of Botany, Materia Medica, Practical Chemistry, Practical Physiology, Medical Jurisprudence, Pathological Anatomy, Practical Surgery, and Pharmacy. All fees are paid at the Office of the College, where the Student receives his tickets, which must afterwards be signed by the respective Professors. Drafts to be drawn in favour of Mr. Harry Brown, Assistant Secretary and Accountant. The Office is open from 9 a.m. till 4 p.m., except on Satur- days, when it closes at 1 p.m., and during the Vacations, 11 a.m. till 3 p.m., -and Saturdays 11 a.m. till 1 p.m. At the beginning of each Session after the first, Perpetual Tickets must be brought to the Office to be renewed and redated for the purposes of registration. Sessional Tickets may be exchanged for Perpetual Tickets on* pay- ment of the difference of the fees, at any time before the end of the Session in ivhich they are taken out ; but this exchange cannot be made at any later date, except on payment of another Sessional Fee. The Tickets called “ Perpetual Tickets,” for Classes' in the Faculty of Medicine, will not be renewed after the expiration of five years from the dateof their issue, except (1) to Students who have obtained a Medical or Surgical qualification, or (2) with the approbation, in writing, of the Dean of the Faculty. Students are recommended to apply to the Dean or the Vice-Dean for any information or advice that they may require regarding their studies. MEDICAL SCHOOLS. 445 OFFICERS OF THE HOSPITAL.

WESTMINSTER HOSPITAL MEDICAL SCHOOL, OPPOSITE WESTMINSTER ABBEY. This Hospital, the first established in this country by voluntary sub- scriptions, was instituted in 1719, and incorporated by Act of Parliament in 1836. In 1834, the Medical School w r as established. Alterations are in progress, which will enlarge the resources of the Institution, and place it on a par in sanitary matters with the best constructed of the modern Hospitals. It will contain upwards of 200 beds. With its smaller resources the Hospital received, during the year 1876, 1817 in-patients and 19,968 out-patients — Total, 21,785. The Hospital and Medical School afford the means of complete instruction in Medicine and Surgery and the sciences in relation therewith. There are separate departments for Diseases of the Eye, Diseases of the Ear, Diseases of the Skin, Diseases of the Teeth, and Diseases peculiar to Women. In addition to the practice of the Hospital, pupils who enter for the whole period of medical education are permitted to attend, without further fee, the practice of the Royal Westminster Ophthalmic Hospital, and that of the National Hospital for Paralysis. Clinic? 1 Lectures are delivered weekly during the Winter and Summer Sessions by the Physicians and Surgeons. The Offices of House Physician and House Surgeon are open to competition amongst gentlemen who have been educated at the Hospital, and who are qualified to practise under the Medical Registration Act. The House Physician and House Surgeon and other officers are not only appointed without the pay- ment of any fee, but they are provided with board and lodging in the Hospital, free of expense. Clinical Clerks and Dressers are selected MEDICAL SCHOOLS. 447 from the most qualified Students, without any additional fee. The entire course of study (including Hospital Practice and Lectures) required by the Colleges of Physicians and Surgeons and the Society of Apothecaries may be attended on payment of 94 guineas, in three instalments, or 80 guineas in one sum. There are two Scholarships of the value of 50 1. a year each, tenable for two years ; two Entrance Scholarships, of the value of 10£. per annum each, tenable for two years ; one Scholarship of the value of 20 1., and several prizes and exhibitions. SUGGESTIONS TO STUDENTS. Before commencing the period of Medical study it is necessary to pass a Preliminary Examination in Arts. The Examination most to be recom- mended is the Matriculation of the University of London, as it will enable the Student subsequently to present himself for a London Degree, should he desire to do so. Should circumstances deter the Student from offering himself for the matriculation, he will find an easier standard in one or other of the Preliminary Examinations for the Fellowship or Membership of the Royal College of Surgeons of England, or that of the Society of Apothe- caries. Full information with regard to the dates and subjects of examina- tion, or the list of examinations recognised by these bodies, may be obtained from the Secretary of the College of Surgeons, Lincoln’s-Inn-Fields, or from the Beadle at Apothecaries’ Hall, Bridge Street, Blackfriars. As soon as the Preliminary Examination has been passed, it will be necessary for the Student to register at the Medical Council, 315, Oxford Street, as the commencement of the course of professional study recognised by any of the qualifying bodies will not be recognised as dating earlier than fifteen days before the time of registration. The Preliminary Examination over, there are three ways of commencing Medical Education : — 1. By attendance for one year on the practice of a Pro- vincial Hospital or other public Institution recognised for this purpose. 2. As the pupil, for one year, of a legally qualified Surgeon, holding sufficient public appointments to afford such opportunities of practical instruction as shall be satisfactory to the authorities. 3. By entering at once at a recog- nised Medical School. In the two former cases it will be necessary, in order that it may be recognised by the College of Surgeons, to furnish a Certifi- cate to the Secretary for registration at the College, from the Medical Superintendent of the Hospital or other institution to the practice of which the Student shall have entered, or from the practitioner whose pupil he shall have become. This Certificate must be accompanied by proof of having passed the necessary Preliminary Examination. The minimum period of Medical study required is four years from the date of registration, of which time at least two years and a half must be passed at a recognised Medical School : but three years and a half are necessary to avoid entering upon the study of the practical subjects before the primary examinations have been passed. On entering for Lectures and Hospital Practice in London, it is necessary for Students to register their Cards of Admission within fifteen days from the commencement of the Session, both at the College of Surgeons and at Apothecaries’ Hall. The Examining Bodies require each Student to pass two examinations, one at the end of the second year of study, the other at the termination of the fourth year. 44 $ OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. MEDICAL TUTORS. Two Tutors have been appointed to afford additional assistance and guid- ance to the Students in their work, and will, with the assistance of the Demonstrator of Anatomy, hold senior and junior classes for the study of the various subjects. Each Student will be required to attend three hours' tutorial instruction in each week, for which advantage he will be required to pay to the Dean a fee of two guineas at the commencement of each Winter Session, and a fee of one guinea at the commencement of each Summer Session . Students may compound for the Tutorial Classes by payment of five guineas in one sum . RESIDENCE OF STUDENTS. Parents and guardians are requested to communicate with the Dean before deciding upon the residence of Students. Some of the Lecturers take pupils to reside with them.

MARY’S HOSPITAL AND MEDICAL SCHOOL, CAMBRIDGE PLACE, PADDINGTON. This Hospital is situated in one of the most pleasant and healthy dis- tricts of London, and its Medical School has been constructed with the most careful attention to convenience, ventilation, and sanitary require- ments. It comprises very complete means of preparation for the Examin- ing Boards of the Colleges of Physicians and Surgeons, the Society of Apothecaries, the University of London, the Public Services, and. what is of still greater importance, for the exigencies of private practice. The founders of this Hospital constantly held in view the importance of making it available as a means of teaching and treatment in Special as well as General Medical and Surgical diseases. Hence it offers to the Students every variety of practice. The Hospital contains 165 beds, 76 of which are devoted to Medical, and 89 to Surgical cases. Two wards are appropriated to the Diseases of Children, and one to those of Women ; beds are also provided for Ophthal- mic cases.

Special instruction is provided (by separate courses) in Minor Surgery and Bandaging, Ophthalmic and Dental Surgery, Comparative Anatomy, Histological and Pathological Anatomy, ‘and Mental Diseases. The Clinical system is carefully organized in the general wards. There are also de- partments for Diseases of Women and Children, of the Eye and Ear, of the Skin and Throat. The scientific teaching is mainly demonstrative. All the resident medical appointments (including the House-Surgencies) are open to the pupils without expense of any kind, and are equivalent to five Scholarships of the annual value of 50 l.

The establishment of this Hospital dates from the year 1740, when a few benevolent persons (the foremost of whom was Mr. John Harrison, the first Surgeon to the Charity) opened a small Infirmary in Featherstone Street. This locality was speedily changed for Prescot Street, Goodman’s Fields, and the need for additional accommodation soon becoming apparent, a portion of the present building was opened in 1757. Not long afterwards the Governors were incorporated by Royal Charter. The West Wing was opened in 1831 ; the East Wing in 1842 ; the Alexandra Wing in 1866; and the Grocers’ Company’s Wing in March, 1876. The progress of the Hospital as a house of refuge for the sick poor may be gathered from the fact that while in the first eighteen months of its existence it received only 127 in-patients and 2,188 out-patients, in 1880 a total of 6,313 in-patients and a total of 55,767 out-patients were admitted. The position of the London Hospital in the neighbourhood of docks, factories, and workshops, renders it, probably, one of the largest Accident Hospitals in the world. During 1 880 the total of accident cases was 10,964, of which 2,165 v r ere admitted into the wards. The daily average attendance of patients in 1880 was 550, and as many as 611 have been at one time resident in the Home. The London Hospital contains about 800 beds, varying in appropriation according to circumstances. It stands out prominently as one of the most active Hospitals in the capital in the onward movement of Medical Education. The entry of the first Student took place in January,. 1742, and annually from that time pupils were admitted to attend the practice of the Physicians and Surgeons. So early as 1749 Mr. Harrison obtained the permission of the House Committee to deliver a course of lectures on Surgery in the Court Room of the Hospital, and in 1755 a similar permission was granted to Mr. Thompson, another surgeon to the Institution. It is now 7 more than a hundred years ago since Mr. Thompson performed at the Hospital the first amputation at the hip ever done in this country . MEDICAL SCHOOLS. ' 453 In August, 1781, Sir William Blizard (to quote a Minute of the House Committee) obtained permission to deliver two courses of lectures on Anatomy and Surgery during the next winter in the demonstrating theatre of this Hospital ; at the same time, to obviate any reflections that may arise from the feelings of some persons, he engaged not to use (the remains of) any of the patients of the Hospital. Thus almost from the foundation of the Hospital Anatomical Demonstrations and Courses of Lectures had been continued, but it had now become necessary to make more comprehensive arrangements for Medical Education. Owing to the absence of practical opportunities of studying Anatomy and Surgery at the English Universities, as well as to the customs of the times, Students purposing to practise as Surgeons were virtually excluded from the benefit of University education. The London Hospital therefore enjoys the credit of having in 1785 set the first example of a complete Medical School in connexion with a Hospital upon the model of the Medical Faculty of an University. Moreover, the printed prospectus of the London Hospital Medical College for 1792 shows that in addition to the Courses of Lectures on the usual subjects of Medical Education, a Course of Lectures on Clinical Medicine was at that time given in the School. Subsequently, Clinical Lectures were discontinued, but they were successfully resumed by Dr. Billing in 1823. The building at the east end of the Hospital continued in use until 1854, when the present Medical College was inaugurated. The Medical College stands apart from the Hospital, but in the Hospital grounds. It consists of two large Lecture Theatres, three Museums, a Reading-Room, Library, and a Large Chemical Laboratory, Dissection Rooms, Rooms for the Lecturers, Curators, Students, &c. During the year 1867, the House Committee liberally expended a considerable sum in improving the Museum ; but the need for additional accommodation having been for some time apparent, a proposition was made that a wing should be added to the Medical College for the purpose of providing a good Reading-Room for the Students, in addition to the Library in the Hospital ; increased space for Museum specimens, which are rapidly accumulating ; a gallery of illustra- tion of Skin Diseases in Models and Drawing, and a collection of Anatomical Models and Preparations, and in 1871 and again in 1880 larger additions have been made. There are nine Scholarships, besides Exhibitions and Prizes, which are competed for during the Winter and Summer Sessions; one of 60 1., one of 40Z., one of 351., one of 30Z., and six of 201. each, besides prizes, &c., of the value of 10Z. and 51. The Medical School of the London Hospital is under the direction of a College Board. The Executive authority is committed to a Warden, who is also Secretary of the Council Board. Special attention will be paid to the preparation of Students for their Examinations at the College of Physicians, the College of Surgeons, the Apothecaries’ Hall, and the University of London. The Educational System is comprehensive. All the Special Branches of Medicine and Surgery are separately taught, the Special Departments for Diseases of the Eye, Ear, Skin, &c., affording abundant material for obser- vation and Clinical Instruction. The latest addition to the School Build- ings is the London Hospital Club, opened in January 1882. 454 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. ADVICE TO STUDENTS. Students who are able to do so are strongly advised to choose for their Preliminary Examination in Arts the Matriculation Examination of the University of London. They will thus have the option of proceeding sub- sequently to the Medical Degrees and Honours of the University, which are generally admitted to be of a superior character. TABLE OF FEES.

It was originally started in a modest building in one of the back streets in Dublin ; gaining reputation and funds by the high standard of its examinations, and by the prudent administration of its income. It eventually moved to its present site, where a college has been erected which is one of the handsomest buildings in Dublin; and within the past 18 months the college has actually expended out of its reserve 10,0002. in still further extending its library (now the largest medical library in the United Kingdom) and its museums. Regu- lated very similarly to that in London, but possesses a School of Surgery, where Lectures are given upon all the subjects of professional study, and practical instruction is provided in Operative Surgery. The Summer Session commences in April, and the Winter Session in October.

THE ROYAL COLLEGE OF PHYSICIANS OF EDINBURGH, AND THE ROYAL COLLEGE OF SURGEONS OF EDINBURGH. These Colleges, while they still continue to give their Diplomas sepa- rately, under separate regulations, have made arrangements by which, after one series of Examinations, the Student may obtain the Diplomas of both Colleges. The general principle of this Joint Examination is, that it shall be con- ducted by a Board,' in which each Body is represented in those branches which are common to both Medicine and Surgery ; but that the College of Physicians shall take exclusive charge of the Examination in Medicine, and the College of Surgeons of the Examination in Surgery. The object of the Joint Examination is to give to Students facilities for obtaining from two separate Bodies, and at less expense, a Qualification in Medicine and a Qualification in Surgery. Students passing that Examina- tion successfully will be enabled to register two Qualifications under the Medical Act, — Licentiate of the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh, and Licentiate of the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh. The arrangement for thus conferring a Double Qualification by the co- peration of the two Colleges is in conformity with Section XIX. of the Medical Act, and received the special sanction of the General Council of Medical Education and Registration, at a meeting held on the 7th of August, 1859. The attention of Medical Students is particularly directed to the fact, that it is required by the regulations issued by the General Medical Council, that after 16th September, 1866, every Medical Student shall have passed the complete Examination in General Education before he can be placed on the Register of Medical Students established by the Council ; and that no one can be admitted to his final examination, or can be placed on the Register of Medical Practitioners in virtue of any qualification in Medicine or Surgery, until a period of four years has elapsed from the date of his registration as a Medical Student. REGULATIONS. Every Candidate must have followed his course of study in a University ; or in an Established School of Medicine ; or in a Provincial School specially recognized by the Colleges of Physicians and Surgeons of that division of the United Kingdom in which it is situate. All Students who intend becoming Candidates for the Diplomas of the Colleges must have passed the complete Examination in General Education, and have had their names inscribed in the Register of Medical Students instituted by the General Medical Council,— at the commence- ment of their professional studies. The subjects of the Preliminary Examination in General Education shall be as follows, namely : — 1 . English Language, including Grammar and Composition. 2. Arith- metic, including Vulgar and Decimal Fractions. 3. Algebra, including Simple Equations. 4. Geometry. — First two Books of Euclid. 5. Latin ; Horatii Carmina, Book I., Sallustii Jugurtha. 6. One of the following MEDICAL SCHOOLS. 467 subjects at the option of the Candidate : — (1) Greek. (2) French. (3) German. (4) Natural Philosophy, including Mechanics, Hydrostatics, and Pneumatics. N.B . — In Latin, Greek, French, and German, parsing the words from the passages given to be translated will be required ; also, translation of short sentences from English into the respective languages. Prospectuses containing more specific information as to the subjects of examination in general education may be had on application to the officer of either College. PROFESSIONAL EXAMINATIONS. Candidates for the Double Qualification shall be subjected to two Pro- fessional Examinations, to be conducted at separate times, partly in writing and partly orally. The First Examination shall embrace Anatomy, Physiology, and Chemis- try ; and shall take place not sooner than the end of the second Winter Session. The Second Examination shall embrace Medicine, Surgery, and Surgical Anatomy, Midwifery, Pathological Anatomy, Materia Medica and Phar- macy, and Medical Jurisprudence ; and shall not take place before the termination of the Winter Session of the last year of study. In the case of Candidates who began their course of study after 16th September, 1866, it will not take place till four years after the Examination on General Education. EDINBURGH ROYAL COLLEGE OF PHYSICIANS. Licences and diplomas after examination are conferred upon Candidates who have completed 21 years of age, who produce evidence of their having been engaged in the study of Medicine during at least four years, and of their having attended courses of lectures and a two years’ practice at a public hospital containing no fewer than 80 beds. There are three exami- nations — one in Literature and Science, and two in Professional subjects. No Candidate will be admitted to the first Professional Examination until he has completed two, or to the second until he has completed four years of professional study. Candidates for the Licence of the College, who already possess a qualification from a recognised Licensing Body, or who have passed the first Professional Examination before a Qualifying Body (provided it be as extensive as that required by this College), will be at once admitted to the second part of the Examination. Meetings for the examination of Candidates who already possess a qualification from a recognised Licensing Body will be held on the first Wednesday of every month (with the exception of September and October), and, if necessary, on the following days.

The Manchester Royal Infirmary was originally founded in 1752, but the present buildings are of much later date. The stone front was erected in 1831, the south wing in 1848, and the north wing, otherwise called the “Jenny Lind Wing,” was completed in 1861. The dome and clock were added in 1854. In recent years the institution has been greatly extended by the establishment of the Lunatic Hospital at Cheadle, of the Barnes Convalescent Home, and of the Monsall Fever Hospital. The Royal Lunatic Hospital at Cheadle was erected in 1848, at an expense of £25,000, and, with the subsequent additions, now accommodates 150 patients. The Barnes Convalescent Home at Cheadle, which was erected chiefly by the munificence of the late Mr. Robert Barnes, provides accommodation for 124 beds. Fever and small pox cases were transferred in 1871 to the Fever Hospital at Monsall, which contains 130 beds, and is situated in the outskirts of the city. All these establishments are under the same Board of Management as the Royal Infirmary, and are served by the same medical staff. The Infirmary also embraces a N urse-training institution, consisting of a staff of about 80 skilled nurses, who are available not only for the service of the Infirmary, but also for the use of private patients in Manchester and the surrounding districts. The Infirmary itself contains 315 beds. The annual average number of Out and Home patients is over 16,000, and the list of casualties in the Accident-room exceeds 6,000 per annum. The associated Hospitals (ex- clusive of the Lunatic Asylum) contain together 570 beds. MEDICAL SCHOOLS, 473 STUDENTS’ FEES.

The Dentists Act, passed on the 22nd July, 1878, came into operation on the 1st August, 1879, and provides for the compulsory registration of all persons practising dentistry in the United Kingdom, also for the regulation of Examinations in dental surgery under the supervision of the General Medical Council, and subject, to some extent, to the require- ments of that body. In the form of Registration, Dental and additional qualifications may be entered, with a view to enabling the public to discern between Dentists who are unqualified and those who possess surgical qualifications. A fee of 5s. is fixed for entering “additional qualifications” in the Dentists’ Register, and 3s. 4 d. as the price of the Register. Pupils who have been articled to their own parents will be in all other respects considered in the same position in regard to registration as Students as those pupils who have paid premiums for instruction. Students who commenced their pro- fessional education by apprenticeship to Dentists entitled to be registered, or by attendance upon prof essional lectures, before July 22nd, 1878 (when dental education became compulsory), shall not be required to produce evidence of having passed a Preliminary Examination in Arts. The regis- tration of dental students will be carried on at the Medical Council Office in London, in the same manner as the existing registration of medical students, and, with the exceptions specified, subject to the same regula- tions as regards Preliminary Examinations in Arts. THE DENTAL HOSPITAL OF LONDON * AND THE LONDON SCHOOL OF DENTAL SURGERY, LEICESTER SQUARE. This hospital was founded in 1859, and opened for the reception of patients at 32, Soho Square. In March, 1874, it was removed to more commodious premises at 40, Leicester Square, which it now occupies. It is supported by voluntary contributions. The rapid growth of the school (there being now more than 100 students upon the books), and the frequent inquiries about its arrangements, and also about the course of study necessary for the candidates for the Dental and Surgical Diplomas, render it desirable that information relating to these subjects should be fully given, but the nature of this work will not permit of a very full description 478 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES.

After these the metals will be separately treated of, commencing with the noble, and ending with the base metals. Throughout the course, such Chemical and Mechanical points as may bear upon the Student’s pursuits will be treated of, and methods of analysis detailed. These Lectures are delivered on the mornings of Tuesday and Friday at 12 o’clock, during the months of October and November. 480 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES.

DENTAL EDUCATION. 481 THE NATIONAL DENTAL HOSPITAL AND COLLEGE, 149, GREAT PORTLAND STREET, W. It was established at 149, Great Portland Street, and opened to the public on November 11th, 1861. The first special Dental School established in the United Kingdom was the Metropolitan School of Dental Science, which was opened on October, 5th, 1859, Dr. B. W. Richardson delivering the inaugural address. With a view to affording greater educational facilities, the field of work of this latter Institution was enlarged, and its name changed to the National Dental College, and an inaugural address was delivered by Mr. Oakley Coles on May 8th, 1877. Rules and Regulations to be observed by Students of the Hospital. I. Students admitted to the practice of this Hospital must enter for the period of two years, and with the understanding that it is their in- tention to obtain the Dental Diploma of the Royal College of Surgeons. Exceptions to this rule can only be made under special or particular circumstances, and with the consent of the Medical Committee. II. Students are required to attend the Hospital daily (except on Sundays) at 9 a.m., and must sign their names, and the time of their arrival, in the Attendance Book. No Student shall be entitled to receive his Certificate of Attendance, unless he has attended not less than two- thirds of the time for which he entered. III. No Student shall be allowed to undertake any operation during the first two months of his Hospital practice, except by special per- mission of the Dental Officer in attendance. IV. Students must provide the necessary instruments for stopping teeth ; and all instruments and appliances the property of the Hospital shall, after being used by a Student, be returned by him, cleansed, to their proper places. V. No Student shall be allowed to receive fee or remuneration from any patient attending the Hospital ; and no mechanical work in the form of artificial teeth shall be supplied to a patient by a Student of the Hospital. VI. The authority of the Medical Officers of the Hospital must be always respected by the Students ; and in case of unseemly conduct, it will be the duty of the Medical Officer to report the same to the Com- mittee, who shall have the power to deal as they may think fit with such cases. Suggestions to Students. Before commencing his Professional Education, the Student must pass a Preliminary Examination in Arts. The Examination most to be recommended is the Matriculation of the University of London, as it will enable the Student subsequently to pre- sent himself for an University degree, should he desire to do so. The Preparation of Candidates for any of the Preliminary Examina- tions is conducted by the Rev H. R. Belcher, M.A. YOL. I. 31 482 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. Having received a Certificate of his Preliminary Examination, and cards of admission to Lectures and Hospital Practice, it is necessary to register the same at the Medical Council Office, 315, Oxford Street, within fifteen days of commencing his professional studies. The com- mencement of such studies will not be recognised by any of the qualifying bodies as dating earlier than fifteen days before the time of registration. Any one registered as a Medical Student must also register as a Dental Student, if he be such. Prizes, consisting, of medals, books, and certificates of honour, are awarded annually. FEES.

LEGAL EDUCATION. 487 LEGAL EDUCATION, AS REQUIRED BY THE COUNCIL OF LEGAL EDUCATION, OR THE SEPARATE INNS. ♦ INTRODUCTORY REMARKS. In giving information respecting the necessary course of study, the regulations and expense of being prepared for, and manner of entering, the Bar, the choice of an Inn, the means of admission, the mode of keeping terms, the process of preparation, and the examinations required, the author believes he is supplying a widely felt want, having been repeatedly asked for information by intending Students on these various points, and he has therefore been induced to devote a rather long and comprehensive chapter to this section of the volume. The necessary steps a Student should take for being admitted to the Bar are herein given, with details which will be a guide to those who have selected the Law as their future profession, in order to become a Barrister or a Solicitor. Briefly, then, “a call to the Bar” in England must be through one of our 11 four Inns of Court,” The Benchers of which Inns alone are qualified to pass Students. In choosing the Law as a profession, it must occur to every one that a successful career is by no means a certainty, and it should be borne in mind that at the present time there are at the Bar nearly 200 Queen’s Counsels, 6,735 Barristers, and 12,000 Solicitors ; within the last ten years the number of Barristers has been doubled, and amongst this number there must be a large section of disappointed or unsuccessful men. How many of the 6,735 barristers get employment may be conjectured from the fact that the lead in a case can only be held by a Queen’s counsel, and of these there are but 187, of which number probably one quarter does not practice at all. The “ four Inns” above alluded to are: The Society of Lincoln’s Inn, of the Middle Temple, of the Inner Temple, and of Gray’s Inn. The regulations of these four Societies are nearly similar. Full par- ticulars as to entrance at these Inns will be given in the following pages. Any Student reading for the Bar must keep Terms after having become a member of an “Inn of Court.” Terms are kept as follows : — Those who are at the same time memoers of any British University, by dining any three days, and in the case of all others by dining six days, in each Term, in the hall of their Inn. Students must be 21 years of age, and have kept (generally) 12 Terms before being called, and must have passed the following examinations : — (1) A preliminary examination before entrance in English, Latin, and History, which is dispensed with on production of a certificate of a University Public Examination. (2) An Examination in Roman Law, either alone any time after four Terms have been kept, or combined with (3). (3) An Examination in (a) Common Law, (b) Equity, (c) Real and Personal Property Law, after keeping nine Terms. It requires at least three years’ study for any one to qualify himself to become a barrister, but Lectures are delivered on the above subjects at the 488 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. Inns, attendance on which is not compulsory. An examination is held each year, at which prizes are given for proficiency in the subjects of the several Lectures. The rewards offered for competition amongst the Students of all the Inns by the “ Council,” consist of 12 Studentships, each of them being of the annual value of one hundred guineas ; eight are tenable for two years, and four for one year. The Council also issue 18 prizes of the value of 500Z. There are also “ Inns of Court” Studentships in Roman Law, Juris- prudence, International Law, and Constitutional History, which each Inn offers for competition amongst its own Students. Lincoln’s Inn offers 4 Scholarships of one hundred guineas each, and four of fifty guineas each, tenable for one year. Middle Temple likewise offers 8 Scholarships, the total annual value being 630Z., also tenable for one year. The Inner Temple does the same. Gray’s Inn offers Scholarships and Prizes of the annual value of 3751. These Prizes, which are valuable and numerous, are of recent foun- dation, and are particularly intended to cover the fee of 100 guineas for working for a year in some Barrister’s Chambers. Students can be called to the Bar during any Law Term by giving a fort- night’s notice before “Call day,” usually the sixteenth day of each Term. He will then have to pay certain fees amounting to about 100Z. A serious item is the Government stamp, of 50Z. The sums required at the different Inns are as follow : — At the Middle Temple, 99Z. 10s. The details of this, as well as of the payments necessary on admission, will be found in a future page. At Lincoln’s Inn the total is 94Z., and the same sum at the Inner Temple ; but the fees at Gray’s Inn amount to only 771. 2s. id., as detailed farther on. After a call to the Bar a young Barrister should read in Chambers for at least two years, besides attending the Courts, before he commences to practise on his own account. Members of the J unior Bar are permitted to take pupils, and the fee is usually 100 guineas for a year, or 50 guineas for six months. The advantage of reading in Chambers is sometimes very great, for if the future practitioner is made of the right metal he becomes so useful to the Barrister with whom he is studying that he will frequently help on his pupil, in his future career, by introducing clients and business to him. Six months with each Barrister would suffice in an ordinary course, divided, say, between a Conveyancer, a Special Pleader, and a Chancery Barrister ; and an additional Term should be spent with the Barrister who makes that branch of the law his specialty which a Student intends to follow. The cost of a Barrister’s education is about 450Z., and for the usual course of study of 4 years this would give an average outlay of about 112Z. a year. This total consists of 40Z. entrance fee, 25Z. for dinner dues, etc., and fees and other charges make up the sum named; such as 225 guineas for reading in Chambers, 50Z. for law books, and 10Z. for wig and gown. After the Barrister is called, his Chambers will cost him 60Z. a year, and the cost of living can be properly estimated at about 200Z. a year; and if we allow that 5 years must elapse before a Barrister can hope to get into practice, it is not a difficult problem to solve what the cost of a legal education is. By an Act of Parliament called “ The Solicitor’s Act,” any Barrister of not less than five years’ standing at the Bar, if he fail in his occupation as a Barrister, or is disappointed with his success, or finds the work too laborious, may change his specialty in the profession, and become a Solicitor. The regulations for the admission of Students to the Inns of Court will be given in extenso in the succeeding pages. LEGAL EDUCATION. 489 COUNCIL OF LEGAL EDUCATION. ( Established by the Four Inns of Court to Superintend the Subject of the Education of Students.) The Council of Legal Education consists of 8 Benchers, 2 nominated by each Inn of Court, who provide 5 Readers, whose duties are — to deliver two courses of Lectures in each educational term to Students for the Bar, to form classes, and to afford advice and directions for the conduct of their professional studies. Each Student pays 5 guineas for the entire course of Lectures, and 5 guineas for admission to the Private Classes. Student- ships and Exhibitions of 50 guineas and 25 guineas per ann. respectively, tenable 3 years, are awarded to the Students most distinguished in the July Examinations. For being called to the Bar it is necessary, as pre- viously stated, that each person should apply to some Inn of Court to be admitted as a Student, filling up a form, to be obtained on application at the Treasurer’s office of the Inn, and to be signed by himself and by two Barristers testifying to his fitness and respectability. Having been approved by the Benchers of the Inner Court, he will have to keep Terms by dining in the hall of the Inn three days in each Term if he be a member of a University, and six days in each Term if he be not — 12 Terms to be kept before the call can be made. The time occupied in term-keeping is 3 years. No Student under 21 years of age is qualified to be called. The cost of a call to the Bar is about 150£., of which, at the Inner Temple, one guinea is charged for the admission form ; 40 1. 11s. 5d. for admission fees, and 82 1. 12s. for call fees. Before “going into Commons,” a bond has to be signed by two sureties for payment of Commons dues, which merely amount to 61. per ann. Chairman. — Right Hon. Spencer H. Walpole, Q.C., M.P., L.I.

Ho Student admitted after the 31st December, 1872, can receive from the Council the Certificate of fitness for call to the Bar, required by the four Inns of Court, unless he shall have passed a satisfactory Exami- nation in the following subjects — viz., 1st, Roman Civil Law ; 2ndly, The Law of Real and Personal Property ; 3rdly, Common Law ; and, 4thly, Equity. No Student admitted after the 31st December, 1872, can be examined for call to the Bar until he shall have kept nine Terms ; except that Students admitted after that day shall have the option of passing the Examination in Roman Law at any time after having kept four Terms. 490 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. An Examination is held, to which a Student of any of the Inns of Court, who is desirous of becoming a candidate for a Certificate of Fitness for being called to the Bar, is admissible. Each Student proposing to submit himself for examination will be required to enter his name, personally or by letter, at the Treasurer’s or Steward’s Office of the Inn of Court to which he belongs, and he will further be required to state in writing whether his object in offering him- self for examination is to obtain a Certificate preliminary to a call to the Bar, or whether he is merely desirous of passing the Examination in Roman Law under the above-mentioned Rule. As an encouragement to Students to study Jurisprudence and Roman Civil Law, Twelve Studentships of One Hundred Guineas each have been established, and divided equally into two classes ; the 1st class of Student- ships to continue for two years, and is open for competition to any Student as to whom not more than four Terms shall have elapsed since he kept his first Term ; and the 2nd class to continue for one year only, and to be open for competition to any Student, not then already entitled to a Student- ship, as to whom not less than four and not more than eight Terms shall have elapsed since he kept his first Term ; two of each class of such Stu- dentships to be awarded by the Council, on the recommendation of the Committee, after every Examination before Hilary and Trinity Terms respectively, to the two Students of each set of competitors who shall have passed the best Examination in both Jurisprudence and Roman and Civil Law.

THE OXFORD AND CAMBRIDGE AND OTHER LOCAL EXAMINATIONS, AND HIGHER LOCAL EXAMINATIONS. INTRODUCTORY REMARKS. The Local Examinations were instituted in 1858, by. Oxford and Cambridge Universities, to supply a common test of attainment both for pupils of public schools and for those privately educated. In the year 1869. and also in 1875, the compiler of this volume published two works, entitled the “ Oxford and Cambridge Local Examination Record,” wherein he tabulated the returns, showing at a glance what each school had done yearly, thereby giving the total results of fifteen years’ Examinations. Copies of these works are still to be obtained. The first “ Local Examinations ” for persons “ not members of the University,” were held by the University of Oxford in June, 1858, and by the University of Cambridge in the following December. Subsequently other Universities followed the examples of Oxford and Cambridge, and “Local Examinations” are now also held by the Universities of Durham, Dublin (for women only), London (for women), Edinburgh, and the Queen’s University in Ireland. These Examinations are conducted at various “ centres ” throughout the country, by means of printed papers set by a central body of Examiners, and worked by the Candidates in the presence of Superintending Examiners appointed by the Universities. Oxford holds an Examination where a Local Committee is “prepared to undertake all those expenses which are occasioned by the Examination being local and Cambridge, where twenty-five fees, at least, are guaranteed. To meet the local expenses (of providing room, stationery, etc.), which are borne by the local Committees, a “local fee,” which varies at the different centres, is charged to each candidate, in addition to the University fees. For the first seven years the Cambridge Local Examinations were open to boys only ; but in 1865 girls were admitted also ; and after the scheme, as regards girls, had been tested for three years, it was made permanent. The Universities of Oxford, Durham, and Edinburgh have also similarly extended their Local Examinations. The conditions of examination, sub- jects, etc., are alike for boys and girls, but Cambridge does not publish the names of girls when friends do not desire such publication, merely giving the numbers by which candidates are known in the examination. The system pursued by each University in carrying out its Local Examinations is, in the main , the same ; but while the other Universities award Certificates only, Oxford and the Queen’s University in Ireland confer the title of “Associate in Arts” upon successful Senior Candidates, and Durham that of “Literate.” “ The Student’s Guide to the University of Cambridge” says : — ‘ * Oxford confers on those who pass the Senior Examination the title of Associate in Arts, and on the Juniors merely a Certificate ; Cambridge gives a Certificate only to both classes. Oxford does not allow the fact that a Student has passed the Theological part of the Examination to be stated on the Certificate, unless ho has been examined in the Prayer Book ; Cambridge YOL. I. 33 514 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. does allow it. Oxford arranges the Candidates in the First Class in order of merit, the rest alphabetically ; Cambridge arranges all alphabetically, but adds lists of those who have specially distinguished themselves. Oxford now also sets special boohs in languages for the Senior Examination ; Cambridge does, but adds also. some passages from other books than those set.” As showing the valuable influence which these Local Examinations exercise, it may be mentioned that while, at the first Oxford Local Exami- nation in 1858, only 430 Candidates were successful out of 1,151 who were examined, in the year 1882 the number of successful Candidates was 1,283 out of 2137 examined. The results of the Cambridge Local Examinations are still more remarkable. In 1858, Cambridge held its Examinations at eight “ centres ” only, and the total number of students examined was but 370, of whom 217 gained Certificates; in 1882 there were 118 “centres,” including J ersey , Trinidad, and Mauritius, and the number examined was 7,640, of whom 4,000 passed. In 1882 the Cambridge examinations were held in December at 1 18 centres for boys and 104 for girls. Of the former, Bishop Auckland, Burnley, Chigwell, Hereford, Hoxton, Isle of Man, Jamaica, Leicester, Maritzburg, Rochester, Spalding, Truro, Woolwich, and Wrexham; and of the latter, Barnes, Burnley, Hoxton, Isle of Man, Leicester, Maritzburg, Richmond, Rochester, Sevenoaks, Silcoats, Spalding, Totteridge-park, Truro, Woolwich, and Worcester-park were new centres. It appears that in 1878 there were entered 3,329 junior boys, 1,483 junior girls, 626 senior boys, and 997 senior girls, making a total of 6,435. In 1882 the corresponding figures were 3,926 junior boys, 1,793 junior girls, 648 senior boys, and 1,273 senior girls — total, 7,640. In 1882, of the 3,668 junior boys examined, 31*6 per cent, passed in honours, 41 per cent, not in honours, making a total passed per cent, of 72*6 ; the failures being 27*4 per cent. Of the 1,740 junior girls examined 23’6 passed in honours, 47*9 not in honours ; the total number passed was 71*5, while the total failures were 28*5. Of the 605 senior boys examined 26 per cent, passed in honours, 31*7 per cent, not in honours — 57*7 per cent, total passes, while the total failures were 42*3 per cent. Of the 1,238 senior girls examined 13 per cent, passed in honours, 48 per cent, passed not in honours. The total passed was 56 per cent. , while the total failures were 44 per cent. According to the twenty-fifth annual report of the Oxford delegates ■under the statute De Examinatione Candidatorum qui non sunt de Corpore Universitalis for the year 1882, which has just been issued by the Clarendon Press, the following information is given : — “ The local examinations for the year 1882 began on the 5th of June, and were held at 35 centres, at 25 of which boys were examined, and at six boys only, and at four girls only. The number of candidates examined was 2,137, viz., 1,426 Juniors, and 711 Seniors. Of these, 822 Juniors and 461 Seniors passed, making a total of 1,283.” In 1883 the number of candidates who presented themselves for examination were as under : — 320 Senior Boys ; 340 Senior Girls ; 10 Musical Candidates . 670 858 Junior Boys ; 361 Junior Girls 1,219 Total 1,889 This shows a decrease of 461 Candidates in the last two years, viz. : — 1881 — Seniors 767, Juniors 1,575 ; total 2,342. 1882 — Seniors 711, Juniors 1,426 ; total 2,137. 1883 — Seniors 670, Juniors 1,219 ; total 1,889.

UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE REGULATIONS FOR LOCAL EXAMINATIONS 1883-4, AND FOR THE EXAMINATION OF SCHOOLS. Attention is called to the extension of age for admission to the Exami- nation for Junior Students. There will be two Examinations, commencing on Monday, December 17, 1883, at 2 P.M., one for Junior and one for Senior Students, super- intended by Examiners appointed by the University. Every one entered for the Examination will be required to pay a fee of twenty shillings to the University. A Local Committee, with a Local Secretary, should be formed in any place where an Examination is desired, and they should communicate early with the Rev. G. F. Browne, St. Catharine’s College, Cambridge, the Secre- tary to the Syndicate. The final application for an Examination at a new centre must be made before September 1st, 1883, and must guarantee the payment of twenty-five fees at the least. At centres for the Examination of Girls there must be a Local Com- mittee of Ladies, one of which will act as Secretary. The room for Examination must in ordinary cases be separated from that of the Boys. The Local Committee is expected to give efficient assistance to the presiding Examiner in the superintendence of the Examination. Infor- mation for the guidance of Local Secretaries and Committees can be obtained on application to the Secretary of the Syndicate. Forms of Entry will be prepared by August 15, and must be obtained from the Local Secretary of the place at which the Student desires to be examined. Each application must state whether Forms for Senior or Junior Students are required, with the probable number of either. The Forms, duly filled up and signed, must be returned to the same Local Secretary (not to the General Secretary) on or before October 1. With them must be remitted the fees, viz., the University fee of £1 for each Candidate, and the Local fee charged by the Committee at the place of Examination. No fees can be returned. If notice of withdrawal be given more than 14 days before the Examination, the Student can enter in another year without further fee to the University, subject to the usual conditions of age, but must apply for a fresh form of entry. The names of the Boys who pass with credit will be placed alphabeti- cally in three Honour classes. The names of those who pass to the satisfaction of the Examiners, yet not so as to deserve Honours, will be placed alphabetically in two classes. After the name of every Boy will be added his place of residence, the school (if any) from which he comes to attend the Examination, and the name of his Schoolmaster.

ENCOURAGEMENT OF ARTS. 539 SOCIETY FOR THE ENCOURAGEMENT OF ARTS, MANUFACTURES, AND COMMERCE. JOHN STREET, ADELPHI, LONDON, W.C. This Society was founded in 1754, and incorporated by Royal Charter in 1847, for the Encouragement of the Arts, Manufactures, and Commerce of the Country, by bestowing rewards for such productions, inventions, ' or improvements as tend to the employment of the poor, to the increase of trade, and to the riches and honour of the kingdom ; and for meri- torious works in the various departments of the Fine Arts; for Discoveries, Inventions, and Improvements in Agriculture, Chemistry, Mechanics, Manufactures, and other useful Arts ; for the application of such natural and artificial products, whether of Home, Colonial, or Foreign growth and manufacture, as may appear likely to afford fresh objects of industry, and to increase the trade of the realm by extending the sphere of British commerce ; and generally to assist in the advancement, development, and practical application of every department of science in connection with the Arts, Manufactures, and Commerce of this country. The Session commences in November, and ends in June. The number of Meetings held during the Session amounts to between 70 and 80. The Examinations are specially intended for Members of Institutions in union with the Society of Arts, and Candidates are examined in Music , theory and practice ; Political Economy ; Domestic Economy (men as well as women may be examined in this), the subjects, (1) Clothing and its Materials, (2) Health, (8) Housekeeping and Thrift, (4) Cookery.

Goschen, M.P. And a numerous and influential Council. The object of this Society is to bring a systematic course of University 540 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. Teaching within the reach of all classes, both men and women, of the inhabitants of London, by means of Lectures, the Society sending their Lecturers and Examiners at different centres ; and the demand for this higher education is increasing, and those who wish to establish new centres should communicate with the Secretary. The Lectures are especially intended for young men and women between the period of leaving school and that of settling down in life ; but experience has shown that these form only a nucleus with which both older and younger Students may be advantageously associated. Some of the most successful Lectures and Classes have been attended largely by artizans. The course consists of twelve weekly Lectures, followed by class instruction, and advice as to the text-books to be us p d and the means of effectual study. Each Lecture is a 1 so accompanied by printed outlines of the subject matter distributed to the pupils, and by questions. The questions are answered by the Students at home in writing, and are submitted to the Lecturer for correction and comment. The Lectures extend over two terms of three months each, the first beginning in October, and the second in January. An Examination in writing is held at the end of each course, entry for which is optional to all who have attended Lectures throughout, and Certificates are given to the successful Candidates. The Examiners are distinct from the Lec- turers, and are appointed by the University Board, who also issue the Certificates. E. T. Cook, B.A., Secretary. COLLEGE OF PRECEPTORS. OFFICES 42, QUEEN SQUARE, BLOOMSBURY, W.C. This College, which is filling a most important place in our scheme of National Education, and is the pioneer of that system of local examina- tion, afterwards so thoroughly adopted by Oxford, Cambridge, and other Universities, was established in the year 1846, and incorporated by Boyal Charter in the year 1849, “for the purpose of promoting sound learning and of advancing the interests of education, especially among the Middle Classes, by affording facilities to the Teacher for acquiring a knowledge of his profession, and by providing for the periodical session of a com- petent Board of Examiners, to ascertain and give certificates of the acquirements and fitness for their office of persons engaged or desiring to be engaged in the education of youth.” With this view, the Charter empowers the College to hold Examinations of Teachers and Schools, both boys and girls, and to grant Diplomas and Certificates to such persons as pass these Examinations satisfactorily. To effect these objects, two plans of examination have been established : (1) That of Teachers, to ascertain their qualifications and fitness to take part in the work of instruction ; and (2) That of Pupils, to test their progress, and to afford at once to the Teacher, and to the public, a satis- factory criterion of the value of the instruction they receive. The Diplomas granted by the College to Teachers are. of three grades — viz., Associate , Licentiate , and Fellow, The qualifications required for the grade of Associate are somewhat higher than those required by the Committee of Council for Certificated Teachers of the First Class ; and COLLEGE OF PRECEPTORS. 54 1 those for the grades of Licentiate and Fellow correspond as nearly as possible to those required for an Ordinary Degree and for an Honour Degree in Arts, respectively, at the principal Universities of Great Britain and Ireland. A distinctive feature of these Examinations is, that in all cases the “ Theory and Practice of Education ” is an obligatory subject for each grade. The Pupils’ Examinations were established in the year 1851, four years before the institution of the University Local Examinations, and two years before those instituted by the Society of Arts, both of which may justly be regarded as more or less the fruit of the efforts and example of the College of Preceptors in leading the way in the improvement of the Education of the Middle Classes. They have been carried on half-yearly, since that time, with steadily increasing success ; and during the past year the number of candidates examined for certificates amounted to more than 13,000 ; and about 2,400 schools, both public and private, in all parts of the country are now brought under the influence of the College Examinations. Visiting Examiners are also appointed by the College, for the inspection and examination of Public and Private Schools. The Higher Certificates awarded by the College at the half-yearly examinations of pupils in schools are recognised by Her Majesty’s Judges, and by the General Medical Council, as guarantees of a good general education ; and consequently the holders of them, who may intend to enter the Legal and Medical professions, are exempted from the necessity of submitting to the Preliminary Literary Examinations held by the Incorporated Law Society, and by the various Medical Corporations of the United Kingdom. The Pharmaceutical Society also recognises, in a similar way, all the College Certificates above the Third Class, the holders of which have passed an Examination in Latin. The Examinations, both of Teachers and of Pupils, are open to both sexes. Women form a large proportion of the candidates at the Exami- nations for Diplomas, and the number of Girls’ Schools from which can- didates are sent up periodically to the Examinations for Certificates is now very considerable, and is rapidly increasing. The total number of persons at present examined annually by the College, at the various Examinations which have been mentioned, and the Pupils examined at their own Schools by Visiting Examiners, amounts to about 17,000 — a number which, it may be observed, greatly exceeds that of the candidates who present themselves annually before any other examining body especially concerned with the improvement of the edu- cation of the Middle Classes. The Council in the year 1873 instituted a Professorship (the first which has been established in this country) of the Science and Art of Education, as a special subject of instruction ; and a Training Course of Lectures and Lessons for Teachers, extending over the whole year, under the direction of competent Lecturers,* is now in full operation. * The course for the year 1882 comprised — (1) Mental Science for Teachers, by James Sully, M.A. , Examiner in Mental Science in the University of London; (2) Practical Education and Methods of Teaching, by the Rev.

Courses of Lectures upon Education, and upon methods of teaching various special subjects, have also been delivered on several occasions at the College Rooms, and are now published. Evening Meetings of the Members of the College are held monthly (except during the Christmas and Midsummer vacations), for the purpose of reading and discussing papers upon subjects connected with Education. Members also have the use of a Library of Educational Works, consisting of about 5,000 volumes, to which additions are constantly being made. The legal Registration of Teachers has long been advocated by the College. A proposal for a Scholastic Registration Act, analogous in its provisions to the Medical Registration Act, was brought before the public in 1861 by a Circular of the Council addressed to the Heads of the prin- cipal Schools throughout the country ; it has formed the subject of repeated memorials and deputations to the Government since that time, and continues to engage the attention of the Council as a much needed reform, and a first step towards making teaching a distinct and recog- nised profession. The Annual Subscription to the College is 11. Is. ; a single payment of 10Z. 10s. confers the privilege of Life Membership. All persons engaged in Education are admissible as Members, subject to election by the Council ; but all candidates are required either to give evh dence of having passed an Examination satisfactory to the Council before some recognised Examining Body, or to pass an Examination at the College. A Teachers’ Examination is held half-yearly — viz., at the Midsummer and Christmas vacations. The Diplomas awarded are of the following grades : — (1) Associate ; (2) Licentiate ; (3) Fellow ; must have had one, two, and five years’ experience in teaching respectively, and the Fee is 11.

The particulars of this College of Music, and the Examinations held therein, are given in the Musical Section of this Work. ♦ THE BIRKBECK LITERARY AND SCIENTIFIC INSTITUTION, ' SOUTHAMPTON BUILDINGS, CHANCERY LANE, W.C. This Institution was long known as the “ London Mechanics’ Institu- tion.” It was founded in 1823, by the late Dr. Birkbeck, aided by the active co-operation and private liberality of Mr. William Ellis, who felt that instruction in social science should be a leading feature for our industrial classes. Among the many friends of education who zealously supported Dr. Birkbeck in his work may be mentioned His Royal High- ness the Duke of Sussex, the Duke of Bedford, the Marquis of Lansdowne, Lord Althorpe, Lord (then Mr.) Brougham, and Sir Francis Burdett. The Institution was intended to supply facilities for evening education for the occupied and working classes, and at a more recent date for both men and women, at a moderate cost. Its operations have kept pace with the growth of education, and its curriculum has gradually expanded, until now it embraces a wide field of study, including Languages, Mathe- matics, Natural, Applied, and Mental Science, History, Literature, Law, Art, etc. Its enterprise and liberality are seen in the fact that it was the first educational institution in the country to open its doors to women, and one hundred classes meet weekly in the subjects taught at this Institution. Since its foundation, the Institution has had over 70,000 members, many of whom have become eminent in Art, Science, and Literature. At the present time there are more than 3,500 Students. Moreover, the list of classes shows that no subject has been omitted which can be useful 544 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. to the Students, and will, at the same time, prove that this Institution has successfully encouraged and supplied the demand for higher education. From the very commencement of its existence, technical education formed an important part of its scheme, and the success which has attended this portion of its work has been most encouraging. The influence of the Institution’s labours soon spread in different parts of the kingdom, and it is the parent of nearly 1,000 similar institutions in England, besides many in the Colonies. There are now more than 200 Mechanics’ Institutes, with 37,600 members, in Yorkshire alone. This Institution, which for fifty-nine years has been carrying on an important educational work in the metropolis, has issued its prospectus for 1884. The evening classes are open to both sexes, and ample oppor- tunity is afforded, as above stated, for the study of Ancient and Modern Languages, Mathematics, Natural, Applied, and Mental Science, Art, Law, History, Literature, Music. The advantages it offers to its members include a library of 9,000 volumes, reading and studying rooms, weekly lectures and evening classes, with fifty professors and thirty examiners. The present President, Mr. W. L. Birkbeck, M.A., is the eon of the founder. The prizes competed for by the students are those given by the Science and Art Department and the Society of Arts, as well as those offered by the Institution and its patrons. The success which has attended the students at examinations has been most marked, and the highest rewards open to such institutions have repeatedly been carried off by the members. It may be mentioned that in one year three of the six Whitworth Scholarships.” open to the entire kingdom, were gained by the students of this Institution ; while nearly one-half of the Society of Arts’ prizes were also obtained, including the “ Prince Consort’s Prize,” given by Her Majesty the Queen ; and the “ Council’s Prize,” instituted for the encouragement of female education. At the last examinations, 489 certificates and 178 prizes were obtained from the Science and Art Department, fifty-one candidates obtained certificates or prizes from the Society of Arts, and 143 from the Educa- tional Council of the Institution. For some years past it has been found extremely difficult to provide accommodation for the large numbers seeking to avail themselves of the advantages of this Institution, and a movement is on foot to obtain premises suitable to its great and important work. The sum required was 20,000Z., and with improved accommodation it is supposed that the present number of members, 3,500, would be considerably augmented. Considering the great advantages which the Birkbeck Institution has conferred upon the cause of education for more than half a century, it is to be hoped, in order to enable the Committee to meet the increasing demand for space, funds will be readily forthcoming for the erection of new and more suitable premises. Since this was in type, His Royal Highness the Duke of Albany laid the foundation stone of the new buildings on an adjacent site in Bream’s Buildings on the 23rd April, 1883. It is a matter of great educational importance to give facilities to establishments of a similar kind throughout the kingdom, where evening classes can be attended by young men and young women who are occupied during the day, and wish to increase tlieir learning and acquire special subjects of knowledge in their leisure time. The fifty-fifth anniversary was presided over by His Royal Highness TIIE SOCIETY OF SCHOOLMASTERS. 545 the Duke of Albany, K.G., and many eminent noblemen and gentlemen have occupied a similar position. Amongst those of late years may be mentioned the Marquis of Ripon, the Earl of Carnarvon, Earl Lytton, the Earl of Northbrook, the late Earl Russell, the Earl of Shaftesbury, Lord Aberdare, the late Lord Chief Justice, the Right Hon. Sir Stafford Northcote, the R : ght Hon. W. E. Forster, M.P., and other well-known friends of education. Officers. Patron . — His Royal Highness the Duke of Albany, K.G. President. — W.

THE SOCIETY OF SCHOOLMASTERS FOR THE RELIEF OF DISTRESSED SCHOOLMASTERS AND USHERS AND OF THEIR WIDOWS AND ORPHANS, 7, ADELPHI TERRACE, STRAND, W.C. The Society of Schoolmasters was instituted in 1798, and is maintained by voluntary contributions. It was first formed on a principle of Life Assurance, for the benefit of such subscribing members as were Masters of Endowed and Boarding Schools. A Charitable Fund was at the same time instituted for the relief of distressed Subscribers, their Widows, and their Orphans. The Society was continued on the original plan for twenty-three years, during which nearly 7,000Z. were paid to forty families for claims that accrued or were surrendered, and several hundred pounds were distributed in charitable donations. In 1821 the Assurance Society was dissolved, and the surplus of the joint stock, amounting to more than 14,000Z., was divided among the surviving shareholders, many of whom gave up their portion to the Chari- table Fund. The Society, possessing 4,000£. 3 per cents., then became a purely charitable institution ; and its aid, which had been previously limited to Subscribers, was extended generally to the Masters of Endowed and Boarding Schools. It subsequently enlarged its design in order to include the Masters of Proprietary Schools. By the present rule it gives relief to distressed Masters of Endowed, Proprietary, and Boarding Schools, who have subscribed to the Society, their Widows and Orphans ; secondly, to distressed Ushers and Assistants of Subscribers, their Widows and Orphans ; and thirdly, so far as the funds will allow, after the claims of Subscribers have been considered, to other distressed Masters, Ushers, and Assistants of Endowed, Proprietary, and Boarding Schools, their Widows and Orphans. YOL. I. 35 54<5 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. Through the investment of benefactions paid by many in lieu of annual contributions, the addition of £1,000 3 per cent, reduced, given by Mrs. Sheppard, of Amport, in 1848, and the receipt of a bequest of £1,000 from Madame Tildesley de Bosset in 1857, the funded property now amounts to £ 10 , 100 . The Society has been principally dependent on the subscriptions of Schoolmasters, but it has received liberal and valuable assistance from friends not members of the profession. His Royal Highness the late Duke of Cambridge was for many years its patron. From their Majesties George IV. and William IV. it received not only the high sanction of their names, but also a yearly grant of fifty guineas. Her Gracious Majesty Queen Victoria was pleased to continue the grant of fifty guineas for many succeeding years. The Society was further favoured by three donations from His Majesty Louis Phillippe, King of the French, who had been a teacher of Mathematics in a College near Coire, in Switzerland, in the year 1793. During his residence at Twickenham in 1816, His Majesty, then the Duke of Orleans, wrote to the Treasurer of that day, Dr. Kelly, that “it was his intention to have expressed sooner how much he was flattered by Dr. Kelly’s very obliging intimation of the motives for which the Duke of Orleans ought to feel a particular interest for the Schoolmasters. The Duke of Orleans has, in fact, more motives for being attached to that useful and respectable class of men than he believes Dr. Kelly can be aware of; since it is not probable he should know that among the many vicissitudes of for- tune which fell to the lot of the Duke of Orleans is to be found that of having been a Schoolmaster. It is, however, a matter of fact that at a time of severe distress and persecution, the Duke of Orleans had the good luck of being admitted as a teacher in a College, when he gave lessons regularly for the space of eight months. The Duke of Orleans hopes, therefore, that the Society for the Relief of Distressed Schoolmasters will permit him to tender his mite as a fellow-Schoolmaster.” The sum distributed by the Committee in relief in the fifty-nine years which have elapsed since the Society became a purely charitable institution has been 18,354^., of which 6,828Z. has been granted in the last twenty years. The applications for assistance have, for some years past, been increasing in importance ; while, through the lapse of time, the loss of all the early advocates of the Society, and of many annual subscribers to its funds, is deeply felt and regretted. These facts are submitted to all who are, or have been, Members of the Profession, and attention is called to the necessities of afflicted and meri- torious Schoolmasters. The funds of the Society are managed with the most scrupulous economy, and a strict investigation is made into the cha- racter and circumstances of each petitioner. Those who have enjoyed, and who can appreciate, the blessings derived from education, should not be unmindful of the obligations which they owe to men who faithfully devote to the instruction of the young the vigour of their life and the laborious exercise of their best faculties.

The Head Masters of the first grade schools were not slow to recog- nize the great importance of the educational movement now at work in England, and from the advanced position already taken up by them in edu- cational reforms, both as regards the teachers and the taught, we may, if they continue to act in unison, and are guided by the spirit of the times, anticipate the most valuable results ; for whatever tendency there may seem to be to suggest theoretical rather than more simple and feasible reforms, there can be little question that these consultations must have some beneficial effect upon the future system of Education, if we take into consideration the fact that the leading promoters of the Conference are men of the highest culture, devoted to the cause of Education, and holding the first positions as educators in the land. The Conference of Head Masters took its rise in a small meeting of Head Masters called by the Rev. E. Thring at Uppingham in 1869. Next year a much larger number of Head Masters met at Sherborne. At the ensuing meeting at Highgate, in 1871, a regular constitution foi the Conference was adopted, of which the first article was “ that an annual meeting of the Head Masters of the highest schools be held to discuss all questions affecting schools and edu- cation.” In accordance with this, the Conference meets annually about Christmas at one of the first grade schools and discusses all questions affecting schools and education. The last Annual Conference was held at the University College, London, and the Head Master of the School is the President for that particular Conference. At their last meeting a scheme of scholarships to be offered by some of the schools represented at the Con- ference to boys who had distinguished themselves in the local examinations was discussed. This scheme has now been brought into a definite shape, and the details have been communicated to the secretaries of the local examinations. President of the Conference in 1883. — H. Weston Eve, M.A., Head Master of University College School. 550 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. OUB SCHOOLS OF SCIENCE. SCIENCE AND ART DEPARTMENT OF THE COMMITTEE OF COUNCIL ON EDUCATION, SOUTH KENSINGTON. SCHOOLS OF SCIENCE. The origin and much of the progress of this Department, and the erec- tion of Kensington Museum, was due to the Prince Consort. Lord Gran- ville largely advanced the buildings in 1859, being aided by Mr. Lowe, a most valiant defender of the South Kensington Museum at the time of his connection with the Science and Art Department. The Duke of Bucking- ham sanctioned the erection of the Science Schools and the great courts in 1866. Probably no one has added more to the promotion of Science and Art than the late Sir Henry Cole, K.C.B., to whom a fitting testimonial has recently been presented in recognition of his eminent services to the Museum. This Department was established in connection with the Board of Trade in March 1853, as a development of the Department of Practical Art, which in 1852 had been created for the reorganization of Schools of Design, and was placed under the direction of the Committee of Council on Education in 1856. The following particulars give a general outline of the action of the De- partment, and have been prepared to enable those who wish to establish a Science School or Class the more readily to understand the detailed rules and regulations under which the aid of the Department is administered. In order to place a Science School or class in connection with the Science and Art Department, an approved Committee, consisting of at least five well-known and responsible persons, must be formed. The list of Science subjects towards which instruction is given by the Department are as follows : — Practical, Plane, and Solid Geometry ; Machine Construction and Drawing ; Building Construction ; Naval Ar- chitecture and Drawing ; Pure Mathematics ; Theoretical Mechanics ; Applied Mechanics ; Sound, Light, and Heat ; Magnetism and Electri- city ; Inorganic Chemistry ; Organic Chemistry ; Geology ; Mineralogy ; Animal Physiology ; Elementary Botany ; Biology, including Animal and Vegetable Morphology and Physiology ; Principles of Mining ; Metallurgy ; Navigation ; Nautical Astronomy ; Steam ; Physical Geography ; Physio- graphy ; Principles of Agriculture. The 2nd grade examination in Art is held at the same time as in the Sciences above named. Candidates can be examined in one only of the subjects or stages bracketed together in the following list in any one year.* * The 2nd grade Art Examination in Freehand Drawing, Model Drawing, Practical Geometry and Perspective, is held at the same time of the year as the Science Examina- tions. That in Freehand Drawing and Model Drawing is held on a separate evening, hut that in Geometry and Perspective may be on the same evening as the Examination in Science subjects, 1, Practical, Plane, and Solid Geometry.

Metallurgy.] The aid is given in the form of Public Examinations, in which Queen’s Prizes are awarded, held at all places complying with certain conditions ; payments on results as tested by these examinations ; scholarships and exhibitions ; building grants ; grants towards the purchase of fittings, apparatus, etc. The examinations are held about the month of May, under the super- intendence of the local committees and local officers. The examination papers are prepared by the professional examiners in London. An evening is set apart for one or more subjects, so that the examination in each subject is simultaneous over the whole kingdom. Through the agency of the Local Committees, public examinations in all the before-mentioned (Sciences — and in Art 2nd grade — in any place in the United Kingdom which complies with the requisite conditions. On the results of this examination payments are made for the instruction of the students, and prizes are awarded. For navigation classes special examinations may also be held three times a year. The examinations are of two kinds, but are held on the same evening, and conducted by the same committee : — (a) The class examinations for students under instruction in science classes, whether taught by teachers qualified to earn payments on results or not. ( b ) The honours examination, of a highly advanced character. A packet of examination papers is sent to each local examination secretary, who opens it in the presence of the committee and candidates. The com- mittee is held responsible that no unfair means of any description are used in working the papers, and that the rules of the Department are strictly complied with. The examinations are of two kinds, but held together, viz. : — (а) The class examinations, of which there are two grades or stages ; the first stage or elementary examination, and the second stage or advanced examination. The successful candidates in both stages are divided into first and second class. (б) The honours examination of a highly advanced character. In this there are also two classes. Any person, however taught, may sit at any one of these examinations. Queen’s prizes, consisting of books or instruments, are also given to all candidates who are successful in obtaining a first class in either stage of the class examinations. Bona fide students in science classes are alone eligible for prizes. Bronze medals are given to all Candidates who obtain a 1st class in honours. Payments are made either to the committees or to the teachers on the results of the May examination. These payments are made only on account of the instruction of students of the industrial classes, or on account of the instruction of their children. Any person may qualify himself or herself to earn payments on results, 552 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. by obtaining a first or second class in the advanced stage of the class exami- nation, or by passing in honours. This examination is dispensed with when the candidate has taken a de- gree at one of the Universities of the United Kingdom, and in certain other cases. To assist in the instruction of deserving students, aid is given in the creation of two forms of scholarship in connection with elementary schools. (a) In the Elementary School Scholarship , 51. is granted to the man- agers of any elementary school for the support of a deserving pupil selected by competition, if they undertake to support him for a year, and subscribe 51. for that purpose. The payment of 51. by the Science and Art Department is conditional on the scholar passing in some branch of science at the next May examination. b. In the Science and Art Scholarship, which is of a more advanced character, a similar contribution of 51. is required on the part of the locality, and a grant of 1 OZ. is made by the Department towards the maintenance for one year of the most deserving pupil or pupils in elementary schools who have passed certain examinations in science and in drawing. In both these cases the scholar must be from twelve to sixteen years of age, and one scholarship is allowed per 100 pupils in the school. Thus a school with fifty pupils may have one scholarship, a school with 150 pupils two scholarships. The Lords of the Committee of Council on Education have by a recent minute (in 1883) decided to withdraw the prizes hitherto given to candi- dates in the science examinations who obtain a first class in the elementary stage of the various subjects of science, substituting certificates of merit, and retaining only the prizes given in the advanced stage. The money hitherto devoted to prizes will be employed in providing for 36 National Scholarships — 12 each year — which will be offered in competition to students of the industrial classes and awarded at the annual examinations of the Department. The National Scholarship will be tenable, at the option of 4 the holder, either at the Normal School of Science, South Kensington, or at the Royal College of Science, Dublin, during the course for the Associate- ship — about three years. The scholar will receive 30s. a week during the session of about nine months in the year, second-class railway fare to and from London or Dublin, and free admission to the lectures and laboratories. There are also two forms of Exhibitions. These are — a. Local Exhibitions to enable students to complete their education at some college or school where scientific instruction of an advanced character may be obtained. Grants of 151. per annum, for one, two, or three years are made for this purpose when the locality raises a like sum by voluntary subscriptions. And if the student attend a State school, such as the Normal School of Science and Royal School of Mines in London, or Royal College of Science in Ireland, the fees are remitted. The exhibition must be awarded in competition. b. Royal Exhibitions of the value of 50Z. per annum, tenable for three years, to the Normal School of Science and Royal School of Mines, London, and the Royal College of Science, Dublin, are given in competition at the May examinations. Six are awarded each year —three to each institution. SCHOOLS OF SCIENCE. 553 The competition for the Whitworth Scholarships is also in part deter- mined by the results of the May examinations. Particulars respecting these are given on the next page. A grant in aid of a new building, or for the adaptation of an existing building for a School of Science, may be made at a rate not exceeding 25. 6c?. per square foot of internal area, up to a maximum of 500?. for any one school ; provided that certain conditions are complied with, and that the school be built under the Public Libraries and Museums Act, or be built in connection with a school of Art, aided by a Department building grant. A grant towards the purchase of fittings, apparatus, diagrams, etc., not exceeding 50 per cent, of the cost of them, is made to Science Schools. And where a school is furnished with a laboratory, properly fitted up, pay- ments are made on account of students who during the year receive twenty- five lessons in laboratory practice. Special extra grants in the form of capitation payments are made in fully organised Science Schools. Further details in all these points will be found in the Official Directory issued by the Department, together with details of the various subjects required at each examination. The 28th report issued in 1881 of the Science and Art Department of the Committee of Council on Education is arranged under the following heads : — Aid given towards the promotion of instruction in science applica- ble to industry ; aid given towards the promotion of instruction in elemen- tary drawing as a part of national education, and in fine art as applied to industry ; the administration of the South Kensington Museum, the cen- tral repository for objects of Science and Art, which, as far as practicable, are circulated throughout the United Kingdom ; the branch Museum at Bethnal Green ; other Museums, supported by the State through the Science and Art Department ; the Geological Survey ; institutions and societies which receive aid from the State, subject to the superintendence of the Science and Art Department. The number of schools examined in 1880 was 1,391. The number of candidates who came up in honours was 1,192, of whom 106 passed in the 1st class, and 340 in the 2nd class. The total number of students examined in 1880 was 39,083. New Schools of Art have been established during the year 1877 at Barnstable, Doncaster, Keswick, and Weymouth. The total number of Schools of Art in operation throughout the kingdom was 144. The total number of students in these schools was 29,414. The number of works selected for the National competition was 790, composed of drawings from the antique, designs, and studies in light and shade, or colour. The number in 1876 was 1,230. The number of students in Art classes was 29,579 in 910 classes, the correspond- ing numbers in 1876 having been 31,158 in 883 classes ; 3,532 students in these classes passed the examination of the 2nd grade, 848 obtained 2nd grade prizes, and 505 obtained prizes for works sent up for inspection. In 3,767 elementary schools, 549,010 children were taught drawing, and 403,208 were examined at the annual examination in March, 1877. The total number of persons who received direct instruction as students, or by means of lectures, in connexion with the Science and Art Department in 1877, was 681,367. The expenditure of the Department during the financial year 1877-8, exclusive of the vote for the Geological Survey, amounted to 276,416?. 5s. 4 d. Eespecting Science Education in England the following statistics are encouraging : — In 1860 the number of science schools was 8, in 1870 it was 554 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. 79, and in 1880 it was 1,391. The number of classes in 1860 was 20, in 1870 it was 2,204, and in 1880 it was 4,932. The number of persons receiving science and art education was in 1860, 386 ; in 1870, 34,233 ; in 1881, 970,874 ; and in 1882, 986,085. SIR JOSEPH WHITWORTH’S SCHOLARSHIPS FOR MECHANICAL SCIENCE. A Syllabus of the Subjects and the Rules under which these Scholarships, founded by Sir Joseph Whitworth, Bart., F.R.S., D.C.L., are awarded, may be obtained on application to the Secretary, Department of Science and Art, South Kensington, London, S.W. 1. The Whitworth Scholarships are of the value of 200Z., 150Z., and 100Z., and they are open for competition to all Her Majesty’s subjects — whether of the United Kingdom, India, or the Colonies. 2. The Candidate must be of sound bodily constitution. He must not have completed the 26th year of his age on the 1st May of the year in which he competes. He must have been engaged in handicraft for at least three years, and have been at work at the vice and lathe, or the forge, or the bench, for at least six consecutive months in each of those years. He must have spent at least 12 months at the vice and lathe. 3. Twenty-five Scholarships will be competed for in May 1882, sixteen of the value of 100Z., eight of 150Z., and one of 200Z., in the following subjects : — Practical geometry. I. Machine drawing. II. Building construction. III. Naval architecture. IV. Mathematics. V. Theoretical mechanics. VI. Applied mechanics. VII. N.B. — The Roman numerals are the -numbers of the subjects in the Science Directory. The competition each year is complete in itself. No marks from a previous success in any subject can be c unted. 4. Candidates who are, or intend to be, engaged in machine making — cotton, woollen, flax, etc. ; or in engineering — marine, locomotive, and fixed — or in artillery, may only take up subjects I., II., V., VI., VII., VIII., IX. , X., XIX., XXII., and freehand drawing. Those engaged in the building trades and coach making may only take up I., III., V., VI., VII., VIII., IX., X. , XXII., and freehand drawing. And those engaged in naval architecture, I., IV., V., VI., VII., VIII., IX., X., XIX., XXII., and freehand drawing. 5. The number of scholarships awarded in each of the foregoing classes will be proportioned to the number and ability of the candidates from each. 6. The relative marks in the several subjects and stages, and the method of awarding them, are the same as in the Royal Exhibitions of the Science and Art Department. 7. No candidate can obtain a Scholarship who has not passed in the Sound, light and heat. VIII. Magnetism and electricity. IX. Inorganic chemistry. X. Metallurgy. XIX. Steam. XXII. Freehand drawing. SCHOOLS OF SCIENCE. SS 5 second stage, or “ Honours,” of practical geometry ; and in the second or third stage, or the “ Honours ” of those stages, of mathematics, and ob- tained a first class in the first stage, or passed in the second stage, or “ Honours,” of theoretical mechanics, and obtained a ‘‘good” in freehand drawing. 8. If a candidate has once qualified as above, it will not be necessary for him to be examined again in these subjects, or to pass in them again. 9. No candidate can obtain a Scholarship who has not attained sufficient handicraft power. And if thought necessary by the Department this may be tested by requiring him to make two Whitworth screw bolts, 1 in. in diameter, and 4 to 6 ins. long, with hexagonal heads and nuts, alike within •001 in. 10. Sir Joseph Whitworth will allow the scholars to attend his works at Manchester free of cost. 11. These scholarships are tenable with the Royal Exhibitions and Scholarships of the Science and Art Department, but not with Admiralty Studentships and Scholarships of the Royal School of Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering ; and no person can take a Whitworth Scholar- ship twice. The examinations in the theoretical subjects will be held under the super- intendence of Local Committees about the month of May. Any candidate wishing to compete for a Whitworth Scholarship must apply to the Science and Art Department before the 15th March, when information of the dates of the examinations will be sent. Note.— In case of a candidate residing in a town where no Local Com- mittee is in existence, a separate examination may, at the discretion of the Science and Art Department, be held there, provided that a com- mittee satisfactory to the Department be formed. Candidates who do not reside near any place where arrangements have been made for an examination may be examined at the South Kensington Museum, on payment of a registration fee of 2s. 6c?. for each evening on which they wish to be examined, or a composition fee of 10s. for any number of evenings. They must send in their names before the 15th of April. Candidates may be examined in freehand drawing at any School of Art, or Art night class, in the month of May. If specially required this examination may be held with the Science examinations. The travelling expenses of candidates who may be required to attend for the practical examination will be paid. They will receive third class railway fare and 7s. 6c?. for each night they are required to be absent from their homes. For each day on which, although they are able to return home to sleep, they are obliged to obtain a meal away from home in the middle of the day, an allowance of 2s. 6c?. will be made. SCIENCE OF HYGIENE. The Council of the Ascham Society have received a letter from the Science and Art Department stating that the Lords of the Committee of Council on Education, having had under consideration the resolution of the Ascham Society, urging that Hygiene should be added to the list of sciences in which grants are made by the Department, have sanctioned the addition of this subject, and that a syllabus will shortly be issued to Science Schools and Classes. 556 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES.

The building in which the collections illustrative of the geological struc- ture and of the mineral produce of the British Islands and their depen- dencies, constituting the Museum of Practical Geology, are exhibited to the public, is, in addition, the seat of the Royal School* of Mines, and contains the central office of the Geological Survey of the United Kingdom, out of which both the Museum and the School have arisen ; and the Normal School of Science, South Kensington, is now affiliated with the Royal School of Mines. In the year 1851, numerous memorials, praying for the establishment of a mining school, were addressed to the Government by the leading repre- sentatives of the mining interest of Great Britain. The memorialists urged that, though the value of the annual mineral produce of this country amounted to 28,000,000?., equalling four-ninths of the total amount pro- duced by the whole of Europe, and far exceeding that yielded by any other State, the miners and metallurgists of the United Kingdom were unable to obtain that instruction in the theory and the practice of their calling, which had long been carefully provided for their foreign competitors in the mining colleges of France, Belgium, Prussia, Saxony, Austria, Spain, and Sweden, and the effect of which, in all cases, had been a marked increase in the economy, efficiency, and safety of mining operations. Guided by those principles of policy which had led successive adminis- trations to establish or to support schools of art and design, for the advan- tage of other great manufacturing interests, the Government acceded to the request of the memorialists ; the immediate realization of whose wishes was doubtless much facilitated by the circumstance that the complete nucleus of a mining school already existed in the officers, the laboratories, and the mineral and fossil collections of the Geological Survey of the United Kingdom. This Survey, commenced single-handed by the late Sir Henry de la Beche, in the year 1884, had undergone a slow and gradual expansion, and as the value and the necessary magnitude of its operations became more obvious, had met with more and more support and encouragement from the State, until, in the year 1851, its working staff contained not only practical geologists and field surveyors, but a naturalist, a mining surveyor, a mine- ralogist, a metallurgist, and a chemist ; and the extensive fossil and other collections, which were not only the fruit of the labours of the Survey, but the justification of its maps, were lodged in the new and spacious museum in J ermyn Street, which had been expressly built for their display and for the purposes of the Survey, by the Government of Sir Robert Peel. 558 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. In order therefore to establish a school of mines, little more was necessary than that the Government should formally authorise a certain number of the officers of the Survey to teach those sciences with which it was their official duty to be acquainted ; and, in fact, when the School of Mines was instituted in 1851, all its professors, with a single exception, were officers of the Survey and Museum, and the students were taught in the theatres and laboratories, and by means of the collections which appertained to the pre-existing establishment. The principal object of the Institution which had thus naturally grown out of, or engrafted itself upon, the Geological Survey of the United King- dom, has always been and is to discipline the students of the school thoroughly in the principles of those sciences upon which the operations of the miner and metallurgist depend. Of course nothing but experience in the mine and in the laboratory can confer the skill and tact requisite for the practical conduct of these operations ; but, on the other hand, it is only by an acquaintance with scientific principles that the beginner can profit by that experience and improve upon the processes of his predecessors. The Normal School of Science at South Kensington is intended, primarily, for the instruction of Teachers, and of students of the industrial classes selected by competition in the examinations of the Science and Art Depart- ment. The Royal School of Mines is affiliated to the Normal School. Students entering for the Associateship of the School of Mines obtain their general scientific training in the Normal School. Other students are admitted so far as there may be accommodation for them, on the payment of fees fixed at a scale sufficiently high to prevent undue competition with institutions which do not receive State aid The instruction in the Normal School is arranged in such a manner as to give the Students a thorough training in the general principles of Science, followed by advanced instruction in one or more special branches of Science. The Associateship is granted in certain divisions or lines of study. Stu- dents who go through any one of the prescribed courses of instruction and pass the necessary Examinations receive a Certificate of Associateship of the Normal School, or of the Royal School of Mines. But students who are not candidates for the Associateship are permitted to take up the course of instruction in one or more special branches of science, and on passing the examination receive a Certificate to that effect. The Normal School and the Royal School of Mines are administered by a Council consisting of the Professors and some of the Lecturers, with a Dean as Chairman, and a Registrar. The Associateship of the Normal School of Science is given in one or more of the following divisions — (a) Mechanics, (6) Physics, ( c ) Chemistry, (d) Biology, (e) Geology, (/) Agriculture, and the Associateship of the Royal School of Mines in (g) Metallurgy, (h) Mining. The Session is divided into two Terms. The first Term begins about the 1st of October and ends about the middle of February. The second Term begins in the middle of February and ends about the middle of June. The Christmas Holidays last about ten days, and the Easter Holidays about a week. The course of instruction is the same for all the divisions during the first two years, after which it is specialised. Examinations are held at the end of each course of instruction and at such other periods as may be found necessary. On the results of these SCHOOLS OF SCIENCE. 559 examinations tlie successful candidates are arranged in two classes, first and second. There are also “ Honours ” examinations for the subjects of the third and fourth years, the successful candidates being placed in order of merit. A student obtains the Associateship w r ho passes in all the subjects of the first two years of the special division he selects for his Associateship. A student who goes through the prescribed course of instruction in any subject and passes the final examination in it receives a certificate to that effect. The fees must be paid to the Registrar of the School before the com- mencement of each course. Mathematics. SI. per term ; Practical Geometry and Mechanical Drawing, SI. per term ; Freehand Drawing, 11. per term. The fees for the first two years amount to 7 51., and for the remainder of the course for the Associateship they vary from 30 1. to 40 1. Both the private, and the State-aided, students are required to furnish themselves with certain instruments and apparatus before the commence- ment of the courses. These are enumerated in the syllabuses of the several subjects. Students who do not wish to attend the lectures are admitted for short periods to the laboratories, at the discretion of the Professors. The fees for the Chemical and Metallurgical and Physical laboratories are 5 1. per month ; for the Biological and Geological laboratories 4 1. per month. Admission is granted to persons desirous of attending the lectures with- out the laboratory instruction, on payment of the lecture fees. Officers of the Army, Navy, and Civil Service, recommended by their respective Departments, are admitted to the Lectures and Laboratories at half the foregoing charges . Students may be re-examined on payment of a fee of 11. for each subject. Associates of the Normal School of Science and of the Royal School of Mines have the privilege of free admission to the Library and to all the courses of lectures. Science teachers actually engaged in teaching who have passed in the advanced stage, or in honours, in any subject in the May examination of the Science and Art Department, or in the December examination in Training Colleges, may attend any course of lectures on the payment of 11. Students who have joined the Royal School of Mines under the old regulations will be required to pass through the following courses of study : — Second Year, First Term, Physics, Part I. ; Second Term, Mechanics, Part I., Mechanical Drawing. Third Year, First Term, Part I. (Geological Division) ; Second Term, Mineralogy and Geology, Part I. Third Year, First Term, Mining and Assaying (Mining Division) ; Second Term, Geology and Mineralogy. Third Year, First and Second Terms, Metallurgy with Laboratory prac- tice (Metallurgical Division). Summer Courses for Teachers. Short courses of instruction are given annually, about July, in different branches of Science for the benefit of Teachers of Science Schools in the country. The courses last three weeks. About 200 teachers are admitted to them, and they receive 2nd class railway fare to and from London, and OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. 560 a bonus towards their incidental expenses of 2 1. each. (See Science Directory. ) Working Men’s Lectures. Three or four courses of evening lectures for working men are given annually during the winter months by the Professors and Lecturers of the Normal School and School of Mines. The admission to each course of six lectures which will be given at South Kensington, Jermyn Street, or Bethnal Green is Qd. The number of tickets is limited by the size of the lecture theatre. EXHIBITIONS, SCHOLARSHIPS, AND PRIZES. There are various Exhibitions, Scholarships, and free admissions attached to the School. They are as follows : — Royal Exhibitions. There are twelve Royal Exhibitions of the value of 50 1. per annum, en- titling the holders to free admission to all the lectures and the chemical and metallurgical laboratories, to be held from year to year for three years, on the condition that the holder attends the courses regularly during those years, complies with all the rules laid down for his guidance, and passes the examinations required for the associateship of the schools. Three or four of the above Royal Exhibitions are open for competition at the May Examination, independently of the prizes, etc., offered by the Science and Art Department. All persons over twenty-one years of age, excepting artisans and such as come within the category of persons paid under the Science Directory, will be excluded from competing for the Royal Exhibitions. Special cases, however, must be determined according to the spirit of the rules and the object of the endowment. The competition for the Royal Exhibitions will be determined by affixing the following values to the several results of the May Examination. The maximum number of marks obtainable in each subject, except mathematics, will be, in the Elementary stage, 100 ; Advanced stage, 200 ; Honours, 400. In mathematics the numbers will be, in the 1st stage, 100 ; 2nd stage, 200 ; 3rd stage, 300 ; Honours 500 ; 4th stage, 150 ; 5th stage, 300 ; Honours 500 ; 6th stage, 300 ; 7th stage, 400 ; Honours 600. But in each case the number of marks gained in the Elementary stage (or in the 1st stage in Mathematics) will be diminished by the minimum number required to pass in that stage, and the number of marks gained in the other stages will be diminished by 20 per cent, of the marks obtainable in those stages. The remainder will then be added together to determine the candidate’s position. But no candidate will be allowed to take an exhibition who has not obtained in Mathematics at least as many marks as are required for a second class in stage 2. Free Studentships. Six Free Studentships are awarded annually under the same rules and conditions as the Royal Exhibitions . They give the Student free admission to the lectures and laboratories for three or three and a half years, as the case may be. SCHOOLS OF SCIENCE. 561 Teachers in Training. About fifty Teachers and Students in Science Classes, who intend to become Science Teachers, are admitted free to the Sessional Courses of instruction at the Normal School. They receive 2nd class railway fare to and from London, and a maintenance allowance of 21s. per week while there. Local Exhibitions. Free instruction is given to Local Exhibitioners. The rules for the creation of Local Exhibitions to which the locality contributes 2 61. and the State 25 1. are to be found in the Science Directory. Royal Scholarships. Four Scholarships, of fifteen pounds each, are given to the Students who shall stand highest on the list of those who have passed their examina- tions for the first year ; and two Scholarships of twenty-five pounds each to that pupil who has gained the greatest number of marks in the examina- tions of the first two years. These Scholarships and Exhibitions are held on the conditions of the Student attending the courses of Lectures regularly , being examined once in the year , and passing satisfactorily . The Edward Forbes Medal. The Trustees appointed by the Committee of the Edward Forbes Memorial Fund have presented to the Institution a bronze medal and a prize of books, to be awarded to the Student who does best in Biology. The De la Beche Medal. The Council awards annually to the Student who has passed highest in the first class in Mining a bronze medal and a prize of books. The Murchison Medal. A medal and a prize of books, the gift of the late Director, Sir Roderick Murchison, will be awarded annually to the Student who stands highest in the Geological Examination. The Bessemer Medal for Metallurgy, and a Tyndall Prize for Physics. PLAN OF INSTRUCTION. The mode of instruction is by systematic courses of Lectures, by written and oral Examinations, by practical teaching in the Laboratories and Drawing Office, and also, under certain conditions, by Field Excursions.

This School was founded in 1840, incorporated in 1864, and was re-built and enlarged in 1880. It was formally opened on March 17th, 1881, by the Right Hon. the Earl of Derby, who distributed the prizes on that occasion. The comprehensive arrangements made by the Science and Art Depart- ment for the encouragement of Technical Education, now supplemented on a large scale by the commendable action of the City and Guilds of London Institute, have had, and are still receiving, the fullest co-operation from this school, situated as it is in a locality where trade has been developed by giant strides, and the importance of technical training being self- evident to the community at large. By the munificent liberality of the representatives of the late Mr. J. Platt, new and commanding buildings have been erected for the furtherance of all those subjects of education which are embraced in the curriculum of schools devoted to science and art studies, now so necessary to enable the British workman to compete with the acknowledged ta’ste of foreign workmen. During the 15 years’ history of this school the number of students who have attended these classes exceeds 3,400. The school was incorporated with the Science and Art Department, South Kensington, during the session 1864-65. Funds for the maintenance of the work were provided by annual subscriptions, class fees, and payment on results from the Science and Art Department to the masters. The following results will prove the “ thoroughness ” of the various studies : — In 1880 the City and Guilds of London Institute held the technological examinations, and this school gained the silver medal and advanced first prize of 3Z. for mechanical engineering ; also the bronze medal and honours, second prize (5?.) for wool dyeing. 442 students, 403 successes, including 18 honours, 3 national medals for honours, 3 Whit- worth scholarship prizes, 2 second of 60Z. each, 1 final second of 100Z., 1 Whitworth exhibition of 20 1. per annum for two years. Summary of scholarships and medals from 1865 to 1880 : — Gained 9 of the Whitworth scholarships and 9 prizes, 7 Whitworth exhibitions and 2 studentships, total value 3,690Z. ; 1 Bremner exhibition, 4 gold, 7 silver, and 6 bronze medals (grant of these medals discontinued since 1876) ; gained 10 national medals for honours, and 2 medals for technical examina- tions. The gross total of money received in prizes, exhibitions, and scholarships since 1867 is 5,490Z. This amount, being awarded to the students, forms no part of the revenue of the school.

At this institution (now incorporated under the Companies Act 1862 and 1867), which was opened in 1874, and is now handsomely endowed, instruction is given to students in Mathematics and Experimental Physics, Chemistry, Geology, and Mining, Biology, Civil and Mechanical Engi- neering, Classics, Mental and Moral Science, Modern Literature and History, Greek, German, Oriental Languages, Textile Industries, Dyeing, and other branches. Examinations are held at the end of each term. The title of Associate is conferred upon students who have been members of the College for not less than two entire sessions, have attended classes in not less than three subjects, and have passed (1) a Preliminary Examination, and (2) a Special Examination in each class at the end of their curriculum. Subjects of the Preliminary Examination — English Composition, and the outlines of English History and Geography ; Elementary Mathematics, viz. — Arithmetic, Algebra to Simple Equations, and Euclid (Books I. and II.), and Latin, or one Modern European Lan- guage. Subjects for Special Examination— Mathematics, Physics, Chemi- stry, Geology, Biology, Ancient History and Literature, Modern History and Literature. A Course of Lectures, specially devoted to the application of Geology to Mining, Textile Industries, and other industrial pursuits, is given during each term. The Council are now able to give Scholar- ships amounting to nearly 600Z. annually, and thirteen or fourteen Scholarships, of amounts more — and in some cases much mere — than sufficient to pay all College expenses, are thrown open to competition every year. The Scholarships at the disposal of the College are the Cavendish Scholarship, the Salt Scholarship, and the Akroyd, Brown, and Clothworkers’ Scholarships, viz., The Cavendish Scholarship of 50 L, awarded for investigations made by the candidates in any branch of Natural Science taught in the college, and is tenable for 1 year ; the Salt Scholarship is tenable for 2 years, value 20 1 . ; the Akroyd Entrance 564 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. Scholarships, each of the value of 25 l. per annum, and tenable for 3 years. The Worshipful Company of Cloth workers of the City of London offer 4 Scholarships of the annual value of 25Z. each, in connection with the Department of Textile Industries in the Yorkshire College, to be held by Students between the ages of 16 and 24 years. The Akroyd Scholar- ships are maintained by funds accruing from the Akroyd Trust, and are intended for the encouragement of the study of Natural Science. The Brown Scholarships were endowed by the late Henry Brown, Esq., who bequeathed 5,000Z. for the purpose of founding five or more Scholarships, to be called the Brown Scholarships, for students attending the said College of Science. The Devonshire Exhibition in connection with the Keighley School of Science and Art, of the annual value of 50 Z., is tenable at the Yorkshire College, and at other Institutions. And Whit- worth Scholarships — 6 Scholarships of 100Z. a year, tenable for 3 years — are competed for at the May examinations of the Science and Art Department. It is understood that the requisite amount — viz., 7,500Z. — has now been subscribed to endow the Chair of Physics at Yorkshire College, Leeds, as a memorial of the late Lord F. Cavendish, who was Chairman of the Council of the College. Lectures are also given on the Theory and Practice of Coal Mining, Mining Engineering, and Colliery Management. The fees are extremely moderate. There is also a School of Medicine in connection with this school, see Medical Section. The London Clothworkers’ Company, who have for years past aided the cause of technical education, resolved at a meeting of the court of governors in July 1883, to make an additional grant of 10,000Z. to this College, to be applied to the enlargement of the textile industries department, more extensive accommodation being required for both the dyeing and weaving sections.

The Classes of the Medical Faculty are open to male students only. No person under fifteen years of age will be admitted as a day student, and all under sixteen will be required to pass a Preliminary Examination previous to admission, which will consist of three parts — (1) Language ; (2) Mathematics ; (3) Science. It will not be necessary to qualify in all of these groups. In order to give some idea of the total cost involved by College training, the following tables are drawn up showing the complete series of lecture courses provided for Candidates for the London University Matriculation and Intermediate Examina- tions, which involve preparation in a large number of different subjects.

This Institution was founded through the munificent liberality of the late Mr. Harris, Prothonotary of Lancashire, who left over 200,000Z. for useful public objects, and who resolved to grant 40,000Z. for the foun- dation of a Science, Art, and Technical School for Preston. The Preston Institution for the diffusion of useful knowledge is now merged into the Harris Institute, the objects being the promotion of Literature, Art, Science, and Technical instruction. But the primary object of the formation of the Institute is the promotion of Technical instruction, and that the other subjects named are intended, so far as practicable, to be furthered with that object mainly in view ; and as a Technical School, by this expression it is not intended to be one in which merely the manipu- lation or routine of a particular trade is taught, but rather one where general instruction is given in the principles of science, and subsequently special instruction in the application of those principles to the operations of special trades. The course of instruction is divided into four departments or sections ; viz., — ( 1 ) Art. ( 2 ) Chemistry. (3) Physics. (4) Mechanics. This Institute is filling a most important place in the education of the town in a practical direction, as regards both Art and Science, but its useful- ness is capable of considerable expansion with extended means. Instruc- tion is given in Freehand Drawing, Practical Geometry, Perspective and Architectural Drawing, Drawing from Models, Drawing and Paint- ing Flowers, Foliage, Landscape, Still Life, etc., Drawing Ornament, Ornamental design, Drawing the Human Figure from copies, Ana- tomical Drawing, the Study of the Antique, Drawing the Human Figure from Draped Life Model. Students are required to follow a progressive course, and not to advance to higher work till the Master shall consider them qualified for it. During the Winter and Spring Terms courses of Lectures are given on’Geometry, Model Drawing, Perspective, Anatomy, etc. Prizes and Scholarships are given to Students in addition to the Government awards. A Scholarship of 45 1. a year, tenable at the South Kensington Art Training School, or some other leading Institution for instruction in Art, will shortly be open for competition by Students attending classes at the Institute. The School year or Session is divided into three Terms of about 13 weeks each. The fees are for the Morning classes, 21. per year, or 17$. 6d. per term ; for Evening classes, 10$. per year, or 5$. per term. President. — Wm. Ascroft, Esq., J.P. Vice-President . — The Rev.

Technical education, though it often forms a topic of discussion, is comparatively little understood in England, and until within the last few years has still less frequently been put into practice. Its primary objects are to improve the minds of artisans with all that has been heretofore accomplished in their particular handicrafts, at home and abroad, and to encourage the exercise of the greatest attainable perfection in mechanical skill. The subject of technical education was first brought under the con- sideration of the Corporation in May, 1877, in a letter from the associated livery companies inviting the Corporation to nominate representatives, which they did, to attend a meeting on the matter. The resolutions passed at that meeting relative to a scheme for a national system of technical education were laid before the Court, and afterwards the Court nominated thirty representatives on the Board of Governors of the livery companies for the advancement of that education. The City Companies had for some time past seriously considered the important subject of technical education, and it is a matter perfectly in harmony with duties properly belonging to these guilds ; for they, in a great measure, owe their existence to the necessity that arose in bygone times for the greater development and protection of the various trades, and were especially created to discourage bad and slovenly workmanship. The City Companies proposed, some time ago, to erect on the Thames Embankment a College, with an endowment out of their funds of 20,000Z. per annum, and intended that it should be formed into a Central Technical University, to which would be attached a Technical Training College and Institute ; but South Kensington was the site ultimately determined upon. A general meeting of the masters of the several companies was convened about three years ago to decide upon what should be done, and a committee was formed, of which Lord Selborne (who had been Master of the Mercers’ Company) was chairman, and Mr. F. Bramwell, of the Gold- smiths’ Company, was vice-chairman. This committee subsequently sub- mitted a series of propositions, the chief object of which was “the improve- ment of the technical knowledge of those engaged in the manufactures of this country, whether employed as workmen, managers, foremen, or as principals.” Twelve Livery Companies, including those of the Mercers, Drapers, Fishmongers, Goldsmiths, and Clothworkers, promised annual contribu- tions amounting to nearly 12,000Z., on the condition that a sound working programme was agreed upon. The aim is to impart a thorough knowledge of the scientific or artistic principles upon which particular manufactures depend, and it was believed that it could be best furnished by the esta- blishment of a Central Institution in London, and local branch Trade Schools to be opened in different districts. Public education in France is divided into five faculties, those of litera- ture, law, medicine, theology, and science. Foremost amongst the schools for technical education stands the Ecole Poly technique, with its branches, the Ecole des Mines, and the Ecole des Ponts et Chaussees, destined ex- clusively for the education of Government, railway, and mining engineers, 566 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. not to speak of the military and naval branch of the school, nor of the comparatively few who join the Regie de Tabac. The admission to the Ecole Polytechnique is by competitive examination. The degree of Bachelor in Science or Literature is required for admission to the com- petition. This examination is a somewhat severe test of sound primary education, as it comprises the whole of arithmetic, elementary geometry, algebra, trigonometry, descriptive geometry, physics and general chemis- try, and a knowledge of German. From 120 to 150 are admitted per annum, out of a number five times as great, who present themselves for examination. The pupils at the Ecole Polytechnique are boarded and lodged at the establishment at Government expense, and the studies are purely scientific. Hitherto the only establishment in Great Britain comparable with the Ecole Centrale as regards metallurgy was our School of Mines.

The report of the Council for the year 1883 was issued on the 1st of August, 1883, and contained many encouraging features, one being in the particulars of the work done by women. In the South London Technical School, the numbers of women students have, during the past year, not fallen far short of those of the men ; and in some branches, such as wood engraving, they have been largely in excess. The figures are not, indeed, very considerable as yet, but they are growing ; and they have to be taken in connection with those of many other departments of instruction, if we wish to form a true idea of the activity which has lately begun to characterise the movement for female education in this kingdom. In all classes of society, and in all stages of attainment, the last few years have seen an immense advance in this direction. In the Universities, as in the Board schools, our sisters have begun to assert, and to justify, their claim to as good an education as is given to their brothers. Cambridge, as well as London University, the Royal University in Ireland, and Victoria College, Manchester, have already thrown open their degree examinations to women, granting them the usual degrees ; and the smallness of the majority by which a like proposal was lately defeated in the Hebdomadal Council shows that in Oxford the same measure is but a question of time TECHNICAL EDUCATION. 567 What an improvement has lately taken place in girls’ schools is a fact so well known that it need not be dwelt on, and one of the best results of an organization like that of the City and Guilds Institute will be to develop all over the country many centres of good training and educated skill. The number of candidates who presented themselves for examination on May 30th, 1883, was 2,397, as against 1,972 in 1882, showing an increase of *125. 148 prizes were granted, including 48 silver medals and 95 bronze medals. Finsbury Technical College, the foundation-stone of which was laid by His Royal Highness the Duke of Albany in 1881, was opened in January, 1883, and more than 500 students are receiving instruction in mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, industries involving appli- cations of chemistry, the building trades and cabinet-making, and other art industries. As to the classes in the Finsbury College, it would seem that last session 1,108 tickets were issued, and that in the recent winter term 652 tickets were taken by 513 students. A summary of results showed that during the past year examinations were held in 147 centres in different parts of the country, that 1,972 candidates were examined, of whom 1,222 had obtained certificates, being an increase of 327 successful candidates compared with the number in 1881. At least one-third of the successful candidates had come from Bolton, Glasgow, Manchester, Brad- ford, and Oldham, and the mention of these great centres of industry was enough to show that what was highly appreciated there must be most useful for the purposes of the industries of the country generally. Coming, then, to the grants in aid of branch institutions, those of £400 a year were continued to University and King’s College, London, as also the grant of £250 a year to the School of Art wood-carving, and of £350 to the British Horological Institute. The following table gives the result of the examinations since the year 1879 : — Year. Number of Centres. Number of subjects of Examination. Number of Candidates. Number of Candidates who passed. 1879 23 7 202 151 1880 85 24 816 515 1881 115 28 1,563 895 1882 147 37 1,972 1,222 1883 150 38 2,397 1,498 The South London School of Technical Art has continued its useful work. The number of candidates for the Technological Examinations has steadily increased, and additional grants have been made to provincial institutions. The building of the Central College at South Kensington is proceeding rapidly. It is expected that this central institution will be completed and formally opened during the summer of 1884. The foundation-stone was laid in July, 1881, by His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales. At this institution, science of a higher class in its applications will be taught to advanced students. It will not be a mere Ecole Centrale , such as we have referred to in France, or a mere Polytecnisclie Schule, such as we 568 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. find in Germany. These schools are very efficient in a certain way ; but, after all, you cannot learn the business of a trade in a school. You must go into the workshop. One thing in which this institute will be of great importance is the formation of teachers of technical science. These have to be exceedingly well instructed in science generally ; they have more- over to study special science as applied to particular crafts, and they have to know sufficient of the craft itself to explain the connection of that science and that craft to the young. TECHNOLOGICAL EXAMINATIONS, 1883-4. The City and Guilds of London Institute for the advancement of Technical Education will afford facilities for carrying out an examination in any of the subjects enumerated in the list given below, wherever a class for instruction is formed, or a sufficient number of candidates pre- sent themselves, provided a local committee undertake to carry out the examination according to the rules laid down in the programme. The committee of any Art or Science School under the Science and Art Department,* or any School Board, or any “ Local Examination Board” connected with the Society of Arts,j* will be accepted as a suitable committee for superintending the Institute’s examinations. In special cases, also, the Institute may entertain propositions for the establishment of special local committees for the technological examinations. Subjects of Examination. 1.

The examination will be in two grades: — 1. Ordinary, or “pass”; 2. Honours. Certificates (first and second class) will be awarded in each grade. * A list of these committees can be obtained upon application to the Secretary of the Science and Art Department, South Kensington, London, S.W. t A list of these boards can be obtained upon application to the Secretary of the Society of Arts, Adelphi, London, W.C. t The practical examination for the Honours grade will be held at Camborne, and in the neighbourhood of Newcastle-on-Tyne, provided a sufficient number of can- didates apply to be examined before April 20th, 1883. Candidates for examination in Honours must have passed in a previous year the examinations in the ordinary grade, or elementary grade (programme 1881). TECHNICAL EDUCATION. 569 Besides passing the Institute’s examination in technology, candidates will be required, in order to obtain the full technological certificate in the ordinary or pass grade, to have passed the Science and Art Depart- ment’s examination, in the elementary stage at least, in two of certain science subjects which are named in the syllabus of the several techno- logical subjects ; and to obtain the full technological certificate in the Honours grade, they will be required to have passed the Science and Art Department’s examination in the advanced stage, at least, in two out of the same list of subjects, unless they can give such other evidence as is mentioned in the following clause, showing that they possess the neces- sary scientific knowledge. The Institute will accept as evidence of the candidate’s knowledge of the necessary science subjects — 1. A certificate stating that the candi- date has obtained a degree in science at one of the Universities of the United Kingdom ; 2. Certificates from the Professors at any of the following Institutions (the list to be added to from time to time) : — Any University of the United Kingdom ; the City and Guilds of London Technical College, Finsbury ; the Normal School of Science and Royal School of Mines ; University College, London ; King’s College, London ; the Owens College, Manchester ; the Yorkshire College, Leeds ; Univer- sity College, Bristol ; Mason’s College, Birmingham ; University College, Nottingham ; the Royal College of Science, Ireland ; stating that the candidate has attended courses of instruction under the Professors at one of the above Institutions in the science subjects allied to the technological subject in which the full certificate is claimed, and has passed an exami- nation in such science subjects satisfactory to the Professors. - Prizes.

TECHNICAL COLLEGE, FINSBURY. Principal — Philip Magnus, Esq., B.Sc., B.A. The Technical College, Finsbury, referred to above, has for its objects the education of — (1) Persons of either sex who wish to receive a scien- tific and practical preparatory training for intermediate posts in industrial works. (2) Apprentices, journeymen, and foremen, who are engaged during the day-time, and who desire to receive supplementary instruc- TECHNICAL EDUCATION. 571 tion in the art practice and in the theory and principles of science con- nected with the industry in which they are engaged. (3) Pupils from middle-class and other schools, who are preparing for the higher scientific and technical courses of instruction to be pursued at the Central Institu- tion. The College therefore fulfils the functions of a finishing technical school for those entering industrial life at a comparatively early age ; of a supplemental school for those already engaged in the factory or work- shop ; and of a preparatory school for the Central Institution. The College embraces the following four chief departments or faculties : 1. Mathematical and Mechanical ; 2. Physical ; 3. Chemical ; 4. Applied Art. The College is under the general direction of the Principal or Superin- tendent of Studies. At the head of each department is a Professor, who is assisted by one or more Demonstrators ; and besides these there are lecturers and teachers for instruction in special subjects. Skilled artizans are employed in the workshops for the guidance of the students. The instruction in all the departments consists of lectures, class lessons, laboratory, studio, and workshop practice. Each complete course of day instruction extends over a period of two years, but students may remain longer at the College. The evening course for apprentices lasts three years. The day classes comprise regular and systematic courses for those who, on leaving the Coliege, are intended to at once enter the factory, work- shop, or some commercial pursuit, as well as for those who will proceed to the Central Institution for higher instruction ; and it is expected that the pupils of the day classes will attend all the courses of instruction recommended under the department which they enter. The evening classes, intended for apprentices, foremen, and others, are more especially adapted to the requirements of those who are already engaged in specific industries. The students of these classes can ascertain from the head of each department the courses of instruction best adapted to their several trades. The industries or trades to which the courses of instruction at the Finsbury Technical College specially apply are — 1. Mechanical Engineering. — Professor John Perry, M.E. 2. Electrical Engineering. — Professor W. E. Ayrton, F.R.S. 3. Industries involving applications of Chemistry. — Professor Henry E. Armstrong, Ph.D., F.R.S. 4. The Building Trade. — Head Master, A. P. Brophy. 5. Cabinet-making and other art industries. The courses of instruction, however, will be, as far as possible, so arranged as to meet the requirements of persons preparing for other occupations, as well as apprentices, workmen, and foremen engaged in other trades not comprised under these headings. In each of the departments of mechanics, physics, and chemistry, attendance at certain prescribed classes, hereinafter indicated, and satis- factory progress in these classes, as tested by examination, wi 11 be accepted by the Council from candidates for the Institute’s full technological certificate as equivalent to passing certain of the Science and Art De- partment’s Examinations in pure science. In July, 1884, and at the close of every following session, certificates will be granted, on the award of the Professors, to students in any depart- 572 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. ment who shall have satisfactorily attended the prescribed courses of that department The Holl Scholarship of £20 a year for two years, tenable at the Technical College, Finsbury, to be competed for annually, will be awarded to a pupil of certain middle-class schools named in the scheme, in accord- ance with the conditions therein contained. The Council have under consideration the foundation of scholarships of 50Z. per annum, with free education, tenable at the Central Institution, to be awarded to Students of the Finsbury College, wdio, after the com- pletion of a two years’ course, are recommended by the Professors to receive them, and whose circumstances justify the Committee in award- ing them. The session at the Finsbury Technical College is divided into three terms : — The winter term, commencing on the first Monday in October, and ending on December 21st. The spring term, commencing on the second Monday in January, and ending about the 21st of March. The summer term, commencing about the 15th of April, and ending about July 16th. A composition fee of 11. per annum, and 11. for the use of apparatus and material, payable in advance, secures attendance at the day classes to all the prescribed courses of any one department. The composition fee for a single term is 21., and 10s. for materials, etc. Day students entering the College in January, 1884, will be admitted for the remainder of the session at a composition fee of 3 l., and 11. for the use of apparatus and materials. The fees for the separate evening courses vary from 5s. to 12s. for the session of about nine months, or from 3s. 6d. to 6s. for a single term. A composition fee of 1Z. 10s. per annum (or 11. for students entering in January), and 10s. for the use of apparatus and material, payable in advance, admits a student to all the evening classes he may require to attend. Apprentices are admitted to any of the evening courses at half the ordinary fees. A programme of the courses of instruction in the several departments may be obtained from the Principal.

This new school of Science and Art is in connection with South Kensington, and was opened on the 21st September, 1878, — new build- ings having been erected for the purpose ; and at the opening cere- monial Lord Rosebery addressed the meeting in the following words : “ He did not think there could be many more pleasant signs of the times — there might be more remarkable — than the development of this anxiety for information in Science and Art. It formed a distinct landmark in our intellectual advancement, it showed that we had passed the time when the first object of our lives was a struggle for elementary education. It showed, moreover, that there was a generation grown up which was anxious to have explained the mysteries of Science, and which was anxious also to partake of the grace of refinement and of Art. Charles G. Dewberry, M.A., C.C., Camb. Mathematical Master of Blair Lodge School, near Falkirk, is the Lecturer of Mathematics and applied Mechanics. 582 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. OUR SCHOOLS OF ART. ♦ ROYAL ACADEMY OF ARTS, BURLINGTON HOUSE, PICCADILLY, LONDON, W. About 300 Students are educated, of whom about forty are admitted annually under the following regulations : — It is required that applicants for admission should have already attained such proficiency as will enable them to draw or model. An acquaintance with Anatomy (comprehending a knowledge of the skeleton, and the names, origins, insertions, and uses of at least the external layer of muscles) is indispensable for those who are to pursue the branches of Painting, Sculpture, and Engraving. A Painter is required to produce, as a specimen of ability, a finished drawing in chalk, about two feet high, of an undraped antique statue ; or, if of the Theseus or of the Ilyssus (the only mutilated figures admissible), it must be accompanied by drawings of a head, hand, and foot. Similar specimens will be required from Engravers. A Sculptor must send a model, either in round or in relief, about tvro feet high, of an undraped antique statue, accompanied by a drawing in outline of a similar figure. Prior to the delivery of the specimens referred to, the applicant must obtain from the Registrar, through the written request of any member of the Academy, or other artist or person of known respectability, a printed form, the blanks of which must be filled up and delivered, with the draw- ings or model, at the Royal Academy, on or before the 28th of June or the 28th of December, to be submitted to the first Council held after those dates.

Those who desire to answer these questions to do so in writing at home, and to be at liberty to submit their answers to the teacher for correction and comment. “ The Class in each subject to be formed only from among those who attend the Lectures in that subject, and to consist of those who are desirous of studying it more fully. The Class, at the discretion of the teacher, either to take up the subject of the Lectures or cognate subjects bearing directly thereon and necessary for the better elucidation of the subject of the Lectures. The teaching in the Class to be more conversational than that in the Lecture.” The teaching in a Course of Lectures and Classes is of a strictly con- tinuous character. Written Examinations are held at the conclusion of each Course by Examiners appointed by the Syndicate, open to any pupil who has attended any complete Course of Lectures and Classes. THE VICE-CHANCELLOR’S CERTIFICATE.

This School was established in 1871, with the purpose of affording to students of civil or of mechanical engineering the advantage of thorough practical instruction in the rudiments of either profession, and in the manipulation of materials. The leading object is to prepare students, by systematic practical instruction, for professional articles ; so that on entering an Engineer’s office or works, the pupil may at once be useful to his principal, and enabled to take advantage of the opportunities for learning open to him, because he has mastered the elementary details of the profession. The School is also available for Students already articled, who desire instruction either in the offices or shops ; for gentlemen anxious to become Engineering Draughtsmen ; or to compete for the Whitworth Scholarships ; or to enter the Steam Mercantile Marine ; or to fit themselves by practical knowledge of scientific and mechanical work and expedients, for life in the colonies or abroad, as explorers or settlers, especially when they may be entirely dependent on their own resources. Candidates for admission to this School are required to pass a preliminary or entrance examination in the rudiments of arithmetic, algebra, and geometry, the mechanical powers, the composition and resolution of forces, and the elements of mechanical drawing. Applicants who are not ready for this examination, or who fail to pass it, can be received for preparatory instruction designed to fit them for passing the entrance examination. Fee for this tuition, 50 guineas, or 17Z. 10s. per term. Students must be sixteen years of age before they can be examined for entrance into the School of Engineering. The mechanical course is comprised in one year, and is designed to convey instruction essential either to the student who intends to be a Civil Engineer, or to one who intends to follow exclusively the mechanical branch of the profession. The year is divided into three terms of fifteen weeks each, leaving seven weeks for vacations : — Easter Term, from first week in January till last week in April. Summer Term, from last week in April till first week in August. Winter Term, from first week in September till the week before Christmas. One term of the course is devoted to the study of Mechanical Drawing, another to Pattern Making and Foundry Work, and a third to Fitting and Smiths’ Work. While the Students are employed in the Drawing Office, they are engaged in making drawings of machinery and constructions ; in tracing, in getting out quantities and estimates, and in calculating the strength of materials. In the Pattern Shops they are employed in preparing patterns or models of engines and machinery ; in the Fitting Shop, in fitting and erecting engines of from 3 to 6 -horse power, or other suitable work for the market ; in the Smiths’ Shop and Foundry, in forging, moulding, and preparing small castings. Lectures on Engineering subjects are delivered to the Students on Mondays and Thursdays. During these Lectures, Students are expected to take notes ; they have examples given them to work out before the next 590 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. Lecture, and are examined upon the subjects of the Lectures at the expira- tion of each term. A list showing the order of merit in which the candi- dates stand in the examination is duly exhibited. The premium for the course is fifty guineas, payable to the Crystal Palace Company in advance ; and for additional term, 1 71. 10s. each ; a single term in either of the offices or shops, 2 51. Students can enter the School at any time, but they will commence their regular course at the beginning of the next ensuing term. The intermediate period will, in such case, be employed in preparatory work, and the fee of 52 1. 10 s. will be increased in exact proportion to the time. CIVIL ENGINEERING. The instruction is intended to be supplementary to the Mechanical Course of the School, and like it, a preparation for articles ; or it can be attended separately ; and the Student can attend one or more of the terms into which the tuition is divided. In 1882 there were 90 Students in attendance. The tuition for those who have not attended the Mechanical Course is divided into three terms each of fifteen weeks. The first term is common to the Civil and Mechanical Engineers, and is devoted to instruction in steam and mechanical subjects. The second term is devoted to preliminary instruction in practical survey- ing and levelling, including the use of instruments, and the preparation of parliamentary plans and estimates for various Public Works. The third term is devoted to preparing specifications, estimates, working plans, and drawings for Public Works to be carried out by contract or otherwise. For such Students in the Civil Engineering Division as have attended the three terms of the Mechanical Course, and desire to complete a second year of instruction, a sixth term will be devoted to an advanced course in Physics and the application of the Exact Sciences to actual construction, with occa- sional lectures and demonstrations on the details and principles of works already executed. Lectures and special demonstrations are given to the Students in this department regularly. Students who have not previously passed through the Mechanical Course of the School must attend the School Lectures. Before a Student can enter this department — whether he hsis been through the Mechanical Course of the School or not — he must pass an examination as to his knowledge of mechanical drawing, and of arithmetic, algebra, and trigonometry, such as will satisfy the Principal that the Student is sufficiently advanced to commence work. The premium for this division is sixty guineas, payable to the Crystal Palace Company in advance ; for additional terms, 21/L each ; for a single term, 2 61. 5s. For the two years’ course (combining the M: E. and C. E. Schools), fee 100 guineas. At the expiration of each term a general examination of Students in the several divisions is conducted by Engineers of eminence, not connected with the School. If it be found that a Student has arrived at the required degree of proficiency, a certificate of his place on the list is awarded to him for knowledge of the subjects that have been treated in the lectures, as well as a similar certificate for his work in the office or shop in which he has served. At the close of the course, should the Student not have obtained his SCHOOLS OF ART. 591 certificates, he is allowed to remain, upon payment of a proportionate pre- mium, for an additional term in each or any department in which he has failed.

Principal. — Mr. E. Miller. Instructor. — Mr. W. G. Head. COLONIAL SECTION. This section is designed particularly for gentlemen who are going to the Colonies or abroad, as explorers or settlers. The object proposed is to afford them so much practical knowledge of scientific and mechanical work and expedients, as shall enable them best to utilise the means at their disposal, especially when entirely dependent on their own resources. The course is divided into three terms, of fifteen weeks each, and the attendance is in accordance with Reg. I. of the School. The instruction is, as far as possible, practical in all details. Lectures covering the whole subject are delivered to the Students on Tuesdays and Fridays, at 4 p.m. , regularly during the Session. Special Lectures, treating on the resources and circumstances of particular Colonies, and other fields of enterprise, are delivered from time to time. The premium for one year’s (three terms’) instruction is 52?. 10s., payable to the Crystal Palace Company in advance ; for additional terms, 17?. 10s. each ; for a single term, 25?. The hours for work are from ten a.m. to one p.m., and from two p.m. till five p.m., except on Saturdays, when the School closes at one p.m. Students can inscribe their names, and the fees must be paid only in the office of the School of Art, Science, and Literature, Byzantine Court, North End, Crystal Palace.

This Institution was founded in 1814, and incorporated by Royal Charter June 30, 1842, and its object is to relieve distressed artists, whether they be subscribers to its funds or not, as well as their widows and orphans, merit and poverty being recognized as furnishing a sufficient claim to aid from its resources. Since its establishment up to the beginning of last year, the society has granted donations amounting in the aggregate to 46,683?., and in 1876 it distributed 1,745?. in sums varying from 10?. to 80?., among ninety-five applicants. Mr. F. Leighton, R.A., who S96 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. presided at the anniversary festival in 1878, made the following eloquent appeal on behalf of this Institution; he said, — “That the cause of the charity had for more than sixty years been pleaded on such occasions by men of conspicuous oratorial power — the most impassioned voice of all being that of Charles Dickens ; and the only consideration which could have induced him to yield to the desire of the Council to take the chair that evening was that while his predecessors in that position had been enabled to speak as it were merely from without, he as an artist could address his audience with that full inward sympathy which was based upon experience. Upon the artist who had taken any part in the distribution of the gifts of the Society, and who had the opportunity of seeing the wreck and ruin over which it shed its silent beneficence, a reflection forced itself ■which was at once startling and deeply pathetic — that those who, baffled and beaten in the race, had set out in the morning of life with hopes as bright and courage as high as they did who had been fortunate enough to reach the desired goal of prosperous distinction. The same enthusiasm, the same singleness of purpose, the same elevation of sentiment, the same unclouded faith of youth, might have been common to them all, but while to some the end had brought fame and plenty, for others it was accom- panied by obscurity and want. Who could think without emotion on so strange a contrast ? But those to whom he was appealing would naturally stay their hands until they had first ascertained that the Artists’ General Benevolent Society was worthy of their esteem and co-operation. He hastened at once, therefore, to assure them that the gifts placed at the dis- posal of the Council were by no means indiscriminately lavished. They were, on the contrary, never distributed except to those whom the strictest investigation had shown to be worthy of receiving them. Such investiga- tions, he might add, were not made by salaried agents, nor vicariously, but personally, by the Council, and there could, he thought, be no better guarantee for the wise bestowal of the funds of the charity. It should be borne in mind that it was not recklessnesss only, nor a blameworthy life, which led to poverty. Adversity had many gates, and the causes which led to it were numerous. Of these causes, some were personal and from within, while others were external. In the latter category the most frequent were periods of depression in the national prosperity or political perturbation, the shadow of impending war, fluctuations in the public taste, and indifference on the part of the public to certain forms of art. But more inexorable were those sources of failure which were personal, and sprung from the artist himself. Daily experience showed that large num- bers of young persons of both sexes embraced the profession of art under a complete delusion as to their gifts and qualifications. Conscious no doubt of an artistic temperament which might seek some mode of expres- sion, fired by the example of others who might have splendidly succeeded, gratified by the flattery of relatives, they found themselves lured on by the most fascinating of all pursuits, but to realize when too late the bitter truth that they had mistaken a wish for a gift, and that they had read power where Nature had written only desire. Perhaps, however, the most terrible of all the sources of failure was the loss of health. If it was a bitter thing for a man to discover that he had misunderstood his natural endowments, how infinitely more bitter, was it not, for an artist who was conscious of the talent living within him to find himself checked at every turn by the paralysing hand of sickness and disease ! In such cases it was that the institution whose claims he was advocating exercised a widely SCHOOLS OF ART. 597 beneficial influence ; nor did the aid which it gave end there. Death in due time came with its blessed relief, but the misery which it scattered around it still remained. The widow and the orphan were left penniless and unbefriended, and to them at such a moment the institution was, indeed, a haven of refuge. If, he might add, the good works of the Society were worthy of appreciation because of their timeliness, they were no less deserving of it because of their secrecy. There was in connection with its accounts no list of names to gratify curiosity. Persons of refined nature, rendered more sensitive by suffering and adversity, frequently shrank from exposing their wants, but they were able to come to the Society in the full confidence, trust, and reliance, that its gifts would in all cases be shrouded by the grace of a respectful silence. Such then was the scope, such the action of “The Artist’s General Benefit Fund,” to which he invited the company to drink prosperity, It was swift to give, it was silent, it was discreet, it was discriminating, and it was beyond example, he believed, economical in its working. The sufferings of which he had spoken were, on the other hand, not imaginary, not rare, and not remote ; they were real, they were constant, they were at their very doors. Never did want stand with more dignity before them ; would they turn away from it ? Another charitable Society in immediate connection with this one, is called the “Artists’ Orphan Fund,” and was established in 1871. The fund now amounts to 21.000Z., producing an annual income of about 800Z. This Society specially appeals to every member of the various branches of Art, who has achieved success in any way, to help those who, deprived of parental aid and support, are often left in a situation of helplessness, dependence, and poverty, and without the means of obtaining that educa- tion which is necessary for future success in life.

This Institution was founded about forty years ago, through the influence of the celebrated painter, Hay don. The aim of a School of Art is to train the pupil systematically in the several stages or branches into which graphic art may be divided ; so that presuming he is diligent and ready of apprehension, he may apply his knowledge first to the study of nature, in order to acquire power, freedom, and certainty in drawing, together with an appreciation of colour, and next to such original production as he may possess the ability for, or to practical applications connected with his occupation. A new building in Cavendish Street has recently been erected, for which purpose subscriptions amounting to about 22,000 1. have been collected. 598 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES.

The study of Music, which is appropriately termed the first and most popular of the fine arts, is now cultivated in England in a far higher degree, and to a much greater extent, than at any former period of our history, and the system pursued in institutions for the development of this improved public taste, and where the necessary instruction in every branch of the art can be obtained, are modelled chiefly in accordance with the newest arrangements carried out in Continental schools The late Lord Chief Justice, Sir A. Cockburn, made some happy allusions on the subject, and in an able speech, which he delivered at an anniversary festival of the Royal Society of Musicians, His Lordship’s remarks in reference to musical education were as follows : — “ When we remember what we owe to music — how it adds to the enjoy- ment of life in all its stages from infancy to age, and in all its forms from the highest to the lowest — now charming our senses with the 4 concourse of sweet sounds,’ but still more often adapting itself to all the varying forms of emotion, sentiment, and passion of which the human mind is capable, enhancing and exalting our sense of joy, assuaging and softening our sense of woe and pain, adding to the happiness and enjoyment of life — where shall we set bounds to our grateful sense of all that is divine and glorious in music ? Again, when we reflect how vast and varied is the sphere over which music reigns, from the shepherd’s reed to the pealing organ, and to the many combinations of orchestral power, from the popular air to the colossal grandeur of Handel ; when we call to mind all th« richness, the fulness, the poetry, and the power, the marvellous blending of divine melody with sublime and majestic harmony which in the symphonies of Beethoven carries us away from ourselves, and transports us to the fulness of rapture and enjoyment ; when we consider again in what various forms this charming art presents itself — at one time enchanting us with the beauty and melody of music, at another addressing itself to our hearts and evoking all the various sentiments of which the heart is capable, from the ardour of war to the tenderness of love, and to pity, which we are told is akin to love ; addressing itself to our highest faculties, working on our imagination, carrying us to the realms of fancy and to the still more sublime regions of the beautiful and the eternal, showing that it is true, as was said by the poet, that — ‘ * Music, the choicest gift which Heaven bestows, In harmony with human feeling glows ; Exalts our joys, and softens all our woes ; In prayer and praise lends wings on high to rise, And wafts our souls in rapture to the skies.” Where, then, shall be the limit of our gratitude to those who have given 602 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. us the benefit and advantages and enjoyment of the art of music ? When I am speaking of what we owe to the art of music, I am not dealing with a mere abstraction which has no actual life, but I must be under- stood to speak also of those who cultivate and practise it. They it is who are entitled to our acknowledgments — the professor, the maestro, who, in his studio, adding genius to science, produces the marvellous master- pieces which are the glory of the art and the property of the world ; and the executant who, adding to native talent the skill which is acquired by long and assiduous labour, gives actual life and being to the great works which must otherwise remain a dead letter.” The Bishop of Gloucester, in distributing the prizes gained by the Glou- cester students at the musical examination in connection with Trinity College, London, addressed the competitors in these words : — “ Nature,” he said, “had denied him the gift of what is called ‘ an ear for music,’ and -while he could feel the pleasure that flowed from hearing a melody, he could not penetrate into the mysteries of harmony, and therefore he was a singu- lar specimen of one who respected, though he did not thoroughly love, music. In answering the question, What is music ? he reviewed the pro- gress of musical art since the Renaissance age, and pointed out that from the middle of the 16th to the end of the 17th centuries, musical composers endeavoured not only to please the ear, but also to touch the sensibilities. At the beginning of the present century the power of music to express sentiment began to be clearly recognised. Every one hearing very fine music must have felt that it expressed some inward feeling, something hardly to be analysed, expressing a realm of thought in part felt and in part lying beyond. A distinguished German, addressing music, said/ Away, away ! thou speakest to me unutterable things that I have life-long sought for, and never, never found.’ That was saying in highly poetic language that music had powers of expression that went beyond even the power of words. Some of our composers had made this a subject of very careful study. Haydn had done this in the first movement of his first Symphony. But music was something more than a means of expressing sentiment and feeling. There was a power in music to call out the emotions, the nobler and the better feelings. It was in touching the inner life, in penetrating the inner chambers of the soul, and in awakening nobler feelings, that music showed its greatest and its noblest power ; and no music deserved to be thoroughly admired and honoured ex- cept in a great measure it expressed that power. If music only appealed to his ear, he should not care to hear any more ; if it only expressed his inner feelings, he should not care to hear much more ; but if he could sit in the concert-room or in the spacious minster, and listen to music which called his better emotions and feelings to the surface, then he began to say to him- self, ‘ This is truly a divine art and imperfectly constituted as he might be, he uncovered his head and honoured and revered the great, the divine art of music.” SCHOOLS OF MUSIC. 603 A meeting was held in September, 1878, at Marlborough House, under the presidency of the Prince of Wales, with the view to advancing the science and art of music, and of founding a Royal and National College of Music. At present the Royal Academy of Music and the National Training School for Music have no connection. It was proposed, with the assent of the managers of both these Institutions, to consider the best methods of bringing them into connection, so that they might co-operate in promoting higher education in the Art of Music, and form the basis for a new college on a more extended and permanent footing than any existing institution. This School and amalgamation have now become a fait accompli , and was formally opened by its Founder and President, H.R.H. the Prince of Wales, in 1883 (see p. 608), and doubtless this will soon become the leading Musical Institu- tion in the country. Mr. Jolly, one of Her Majesty’s Inspectors of Schools, strongly recom- mends the Tonic Sol-fa system (see p. 618) for general adoption in schools, not only elementary, but higher ; he says that the manner in which very young children can be made to read music in a short time, with all the ease of a common reading book, is remarkable. The wonderful cultural power of song in thought, feeling, taste, and morals, he thinks, does not seem to be realized, but, in time, with proper teaching, we might become a musical people, able to rival our own eminence in lyrical poetry by our power to render it worthily and sweetly in song. The Education Department has recently issued a return which shows that in 28,532 departments of schools in England and Scotland the following musical systems are in use : — Hullah’s in 691 schools, the old notation with movable ditto in 676 schools, more than one system in 61 schools, and tonic sol-fa in 3,987 schools. The remaining 23,117 schools teach by ear, using no system. The number of candidates examined in music during 1881 by the various. English examining bodies was unusually large. Trinity College, London, heads the list with 5,669, the University of Cambridge comes next with 1,185, the Society of Arts third with 596, and the University of Oxford last with 281, the combined total being 7,731 candidates. The largest number of students now attending any school of music is at the Guildhall School, London, E.C. THE ROYAL ACADEMY OF MUSIC, TENTERDEN STREET, HANOVER SQUARE, LONDON, W. Patron . — The Queen. President . — The Right Hon. the Earl of Dudley. This Institution was founded in 1822, by the late Earl of Westmoreland, and was incorporated by Royal Charter in 1830. In 1868 there were only 70 pupils in attendance, now about 300 or 400 Students attend a regular course of instruction in the various branches of music. The Institution is most ably conducted under the following regulations, viz.: — All orders whatever for the government of the Academy emanate from the Committee of Management, whose decisions are delivered through their Chairman, to the different offices of the establishment. 6 04 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. All branches of music are taught in the Academy ; and Students may choose any one of these for their principal study. Should the branch for which a male Student enters be Composition, Organ, Pianoforte, or Harp, he is required to learn, in addition, any orchestral instrument the Committee may choose for him. Students are required to learn Harmony and Pianoforte ; and all are required to attend the Sight- Singing Class; and, when competent, to take part in the orchestral and choral practices. Should the branch for which a Student enters be Singing, he or she is required to attend the Elocution Class. The classes for the English, Italian, French, and German languages may be attended by any of the Students on payment of an additional fee of one guinea per term for each class. The year is divided into three Terms of thirteen weeks each ; the Michaelmas Term commences on the third Monday in September, the Lent Term on the third Monday in January, and the Easter Term on the fourth Monday in April. There are vacations of four weeks at Christmas, of one week at Easter, and of eight weeks at the close of the Easter Term. The annual fee for the entire course of study is thirty guineas, or "ten guineas per Term, with an entrance fee of five guineas (which last, when a Student has remained in the Institution for three consecutive years, is deducted from the fee for the tenth Term). An extra fee of three guineas per Term is paid by Students who pursue two principal studies. All payments are made in advance. Notice must be given of the withdrawal of a Student. Orchestral Students, if competent to take part upon any instrument in the orchestral practice, pay an entrance fee of two guineas, and an annual fee of fifteen guineas, divided into terminal payments of five guineas. They are entitled to instruction twice a week, in any study of their own choice, and are required to assist in the weekly practices and in all public performances. An operatic class for the study of the lyrical drama has been opened for composers and singers. Students already accepted in the Academy will be admitted to this class on payment of an additional fee of two guineas per Term each. Students are admitted at the commencement of each Term and half- term. Candidates for admission must attend for examination, bringing, music they can perform, at eleven o’clock on the Saturday before each Term or half-term , with a recommendation from a Subscriber, a Member, an Associate, or an Honorary Member. The fee for examination is one guinea, which is returned on the admis- sion of the candidate. Candidates residing at a distance from London may be primarily exa- mined by any one of the Local Examiners, from whom they may obtain information and advice respecting the Academy. One or more Local Examiners (whose services are honorary) are appointed in every principal town in the kingdom. The Students are required to pay implicit obedience to all persons placed in authority over them, and to attend punctually at the hours appointed for their instruction, and at all orchestral and choral practices, rehearsals, and performances. As a mark of particular distinction, advanced Students are appointed SCHOOLS OF MUSIC. 605 sub-Professors, .and required to give instruction in the Academy, under the supervision of their own Professors. No Student is allowed to undertake any public engagements, without first obtaining the sanction of the Principal. No Student is allowed to publish any composition without the sanction of the Principal ; and a copy of all compositions published with his sanction must be presented to the Library of the Academy. Students have the privilege of practising on the Organ if they pay the cost of blowing, and on the Pedallier without charge. Any infringement or violation of the Regulations, or any discreditable or improper conduct, will subject the Student, at the discretion of the Com- mittee, to dismissal from the Institution. After leaving the Academy, Students may undergo an examination. Should the examination prove satisfactory, they will receive a certificate ; and, in special cases, the additional distinction of being made an Associate of the Institution. Students who distinguish themselves in the musical profession after quitting the Institution, may be, by the Committee of Management, created Members of the Royal Academy of Music. The above Regulations are appointed by the Committee of Management, acting under the Charter given by his late most Gracious Majesty King George IV. There is a Library attached to the Academy, for the use of Students, who are responsible for any works they borrow. A selection of literary books has been presented by C. Mudie, Esq., in memory of Thomas Mollison Mudie. There are Scholarships, Exhibitions, and Prizes awarded to successful Students, viz.:— A WESTMORELAND SCHOLARSHIP, Founded 1861, for Vocalists, as a memorial of the late Earl of Westmoreland, the founder, contended for annually in December.

This College, recently founded, owes its origin to the direct influence and support of His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, who is, appropriately, its first President, and the “National Training School of Music ” has now become a part of the “ Royal College.” Music is of so much national importance, that it may be well to give a short account of the origin of this College. The musical tastes of the Royal Family are hereditary. George ItL’s devotion to Handel is well known. George IV. was a generous and enlightened patron of music, and himself a performer. The Queen and the Prince Consort continued the musical traditions of the Royal Family. Her Majesty’s talent for singing is well known to the readers of Mendelssohn’s delightful letters ; and the practical good done by the Prince in the introduction of fine music at the ancient concerts, the philharmonic concerts, and the per- formances at Windsor Castle, is specified at length in the appendix to Sir Theodore Martin’s “ Life of the Prince Consort,” volume i. The opportunity of creating a national institution did not arise in the Prince’s lifetime, but he showed repeatedly how much he had the advancement of music at heart ; he was himself a composer of no mean merit, as the public have an opportunity of judging from the collection of his musical works very recently published. The Duke of Edinburgh, as is well known, is himself an executant, and his skill, taste, and love for music are proverbial throughout the country. In pursuance of this object, the Prince of Wales, in July, 1878, sum- moned a number of gentlemen to attend a meeting at Marlborough House. Its purpose is formulated in the following extracts from the programme : — “It is expedient to promote the further advancement of the art of music in the United Kingdom by the establishment of a Royal National College of Music on a more permanent and extended basis than any existing institution. SCHOOLS OF MUSIC. 609 “ The object of the College will be the combination in one representa- tive body, under the presidency of the Prince of Wales, of practical musicians and the best and most influential patrons of music, with a view to the efficient regulation and improvement of the art and science of music, and, above all, the providing musical instruction of the highest class. 44 The instruction afforded will consist of a complete course of profes- sional training extending over several years. Scholarships of an amount sufficient to defray the whole or a great portion of the expense of a course of training will be obtainable by open competition. Non- professional pupils will also be admitted on such terms as to entrance fees or otherwise as may be deemed to be most beneficial to the interests of the College ; but in every case the attainment of a sufficient standard of acquirement or ability will be ascertained by examination before any pupil, professional or non-professional, is admitted to the College. 44 Honorary fellowships will be bestowed upon persons eminent in the musical world, and it is intended to establish fellowships carrying with them pecuniary advantages.” The mayors and corporations throughout the country supported and encouraged the movement by holding public meetings, and the powerful and eloquent speech of His Royal Highness the Duke of Albany at Manchester gave a still greater impetus to the national feeling, and in his address he showed that relatively to foreign countries England occupied three centuries ago a higher place in the musical world than she does at the present time, and he proved that the almost universal establishment of central and national musical institutions abroad, and the want of such an institution in England, had been one cause why musical progress has not in this country kept pace with the increase of wealth and population, and the corresponding development of science and art. The movement having now obtained a firm hold in public estimation, liberal subscriptions and donations flowed in with a response equal to the occasion and object. Sir Erasmus Wilson, K.C.B., Sir William J. Clarke, Bart., Sir Thomas Elder, and Miss Courtenay at once subscribed £3,000 each to found three scholarships, and many other equally munificent donations were given, the result being that we have now a conservatoire of Music fully established, which will doubtless last for all time, and is destined to occupy the same position in relation to musical art in the United Kingdom as in Germany is occupied by the conservatoire of Berlin, and in Austria by the conservatoire of Vienna, and will certainly consti- tute a new era in the history of music in the United Kingdom. On the 29th March, 1883, the first open competitive examination for scholarships was held, and many were awarded. The College is situated in Kensington Gore, S.W. in the building presented for the purpose by Sir Charles J. Freak, Bart., closely adjoins the Albert Hall, and rooms in that building will be available for choral and instrumental practice. The College will be open to pupils of both sexes, who will consist of scholars, exhibitioners, and students. All will follow the same system of study, under the same instructors, and will have similar advantages afforded to them in regard to range and choice of subjects. The above and following extracts have been collated from the articles which appeared in the first printed reports issued by the College, and supplied to this work by the courtesy of the Hon. Secretary. The inf ormation may therefore be considered as strictly accurate. VOL. I. 39 6 io OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. Scholarships. A Scholarship will entitle the holder to a thorough and systematic education in theoretical and practical music, as represented in the fol- lowing branches : — Harmony, counterpoint, and composition ; organ, pianoforte, harp, violin, and other stringed instruments, wind instru- ments ; singing, including solo, part, chorus, and dramatic singing, with declamation. Scholars will be entitled to select, at their own option, one of the above branches as a principal subject, but they willj also be required to receive instruction in such additional subject or subjects as may be chosen for them. There will further be classes for the practice of orchestral, chamber, and choral music, in which the scholars will be required to take part ; harmony classes and sight-singing classes ; lectures on the history of music, and the construction of instruments. The attendance of all scholars will be compulsory at both of these courses. A course of instruction in modern languages, which the pupils in singing will be required to attend. The Scholarships are tenable for a period of three years, but may be terminated by the Council at any time, should the progress or conduct of the scholar be unsatisfactory ; on the other hand, the period may be extended when the ability and circumstances of the scholar are considered by the Council to warrant such extension. Candidates for scholarships are eligible up to the following ages : — Composition, males and females, 21 ; pianoforte, males 18, and females 19 ; organ, males 19, females 20 ; harp, males 18, females 19 ; violin and other stringed instruments, males and females, 18; wind instruments, males 20 ; singing, males between the ages of 18 and 23, females between 17 and 22. The Scholarships are of two classes : Open Scholarships ; Close or Local Scholarships. Open Scholarships. These are open to all classes of Her Majesty’s subjects, within the prescribed ages, and are obtainable by competitive examination only. The final competitions for vacant Scholarships will be held, after due and proper public notice, at the College. A certain number of the Open Scholarships will provide not only for the musical education, but also for the maintenance of the scholar. Fifty Scholarships will be awarded at the opening of the College. Preliminary examinations will be held throughout the country, with the view of previously testing the candidates, and selecting those whose qualifications are such as to give them a reasonable prospect of success in the final competition ; and those only who may be selected at such preliminary examination will be allowed to attend the final competition. No fee is charged for admission to the preliminary examination ; but the fee for examination at the final competition is one guinea, which will be returned to the successful scholars. Open Scholarships providing musical education and maintenance, and bearing in each case the name of the founder, may be founded by any person, association, or public body, by the donation of £2,500 for each scholarship. Four of these have already been established. These are — The Courtenay Scholarship, founded by Miss Courtenay, in memory of her brother, Frank Courtenay, Esq. ; the Wilson Scholarship, founded SCHOOLS OF MUSIC. 6 I I by Sir Erasmus Wilson, F.R.S., F.R.C.S. ; the Morley Scholarship, founded by Samuel Morley, Esq., M.P., Howard Morley, Esq., and Charles Morley, Esq. ; the Elizabeth Pringle Memorial Scholarship, founded by her daughter, Lady Harvey, of Langley Park, Slough. Close or Local Scholarships. These may be founded by any person, association, or public body, by the donation of £3,000, which provides both musical education and main- tenance ; they are obtainable by competition only ; may bear such name as the donor may desire, and be confined to natives of the locality, or otherwise restricted as may be wished by the donor, and approved by the Council. The competition will take place at the College, as in the case of the Open Scholarships ; when, if no candidate reaches the required standard of excellence, the funds of the scholarship will be applied to the general purposes of the College, until such time as a sufficiently qualified candi- date is elected by competition. The following Local Scholarships have already been founded : — The South Province (of Victoria) Scholarship for public competition among natives of Victoria, founded by the Hon. Sir William J. Clarke, Bart., Melbourne, Victoria ; the South Australian Scholarship, founded by Sir Thomas Elder, Adelaide, South Australia ; the Portsmouth Scholarship, founded for natives of Portsmouth, Hants. Mr. William Gilstrap, of Fornham Hall, Bury St. Edmunds, Suffolk, and Newark-on-Trent, Notts, who last year gave £1,000 to the funds of the Royal College of Music, has now added £2,000 to that sum, with the view of founding a scholarship in the College, in his own name, to be awarded (1) to natives of Suffolk, or failing them (2) to natives of Nottinghamshire, or failing them (3) to the country at large. Exhibitions will be created from time to time, as the funds of the College may admit. They will entitle the holders to certain reductions in the expense of their education, and will be awarded to those who, having failed to obtain Open Scholarships, are next in merit to scholars. A person becoming entitled to a Scholarship or Exhibition, who declines to accept the emoluments thereof, by reason of his being able to pay for his education or maintenance, may bear the title of Honorary Scholar or Honorary Exhibitioner, or such other title as may be determined by the Council. Students. Persons desiring to enter the College as students or paying pupils must pass an entrance examination at the College. The fee for the examina- tion is one guinea. The full course of instruction occupies three years, and no student is admitted for a shorter period than one year. As a rule, students are only admitted at the beginning of a term, but exceptions may be made at the discretion of the Director. Students have the same advantages offered to them, in regard to range and choice of subjects, that the scholars have, and may take part, if sufficiently advanced, in the practices of orchestral, chamber, and choral music. The lectures on the history of music, and the construction of instruments will be open to them ; and the students in singing may enter the course of modern languages. 6 12 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. The fee for a student is £40 per annum, payable on entrance and at the beginning of each subsequent year. Note . — In the case of students, it is open to any person so disposed to provide or assist the education of a pupil by paying the fees, either wholly or in part. Terms. The College year will consist of three terms, of about thirteen weeks each, as follows : — 1. First term, beginning on the Monday nearest to the 1st of May. 2. Second term, beginning on the Monday nearest to the 20th of September. 3. Third term, beginning on the Monday nearest to the 15th of January. Notice of the precise date of the beginning and ending of each term, of the vacations, of extra holidays, if any, and of the daily hours of in- struction, will be given from time to time by the Director. Lodgings. Provision will be made, under the direct supervision of the authorities of the College, for the board and residence of the holders of scholarships which include maintenance, in houses approved by the Council. These houses will also be open, on payment of such fees as may be fixed by the Council, and so far as the accommodation may extend, to the holders of scholarships which do not include maintenance, and also to students who, not being resident in London, may desire to be accommodated in them. General Regulations. Before entering the College, each scholar or exhibitioner, with a parent or guardian, or other responsible person, will be required to sign a form binding the pupil to obey the rules of the College, and to remain for the entire term of the scholarship or exhibition, except in case of illness or other unavoidable cause. All pupils, whether scholars, exhibitioners, or students, must attend punctually at the hour appointed for their respective classes, and must on no account absent themselves from any lessons without the permission of the Director. Any pupil breaking the rules of the College, or otherwise guilty of misconduct, will be subject to dismissal, on the decision of the Council. No pupil will be allowed to take part in any public performance, or publish any composition, or enter into any engagement, except by the written permission of the Director. Pupils will be examined periodically, and marks of distinction will be awarded to those who pass their examinations satisfactorily. Pupils must be at least nine years of age when they enter the College ; and must possess the educational and physical qualifications necessary for the class of study proposed to be adopted. In addition to the regular course of instruction, pupils may be required to attend other classes, when this is considered desirable by the Director. This prospectus will be subject to alteration from time to time, with the exception that the rights of the existing holders of scholarships and exhibitions will be preserved. Preliminary Examination for Scholarships. Notice to Candidates .

The Tonic Sol-fa College was established in 1863, and since its incorpora- tion in 1875 has been doing a great and useful educational work through- out the country. Its system of graded Certificates, Postal Courses, etc., has been eminently successful in spreading a knowledge of music among the people. A fund is being raised for the purpose of erecting a building suitable for the work of the College, containing Lecture Hall, Class Rooms, etc., as the increasing demand for qualified Sol-fa Teachers for the elementary schools throughout the country renders it necessary that the personal teaching of the College shall not be limited to a short summer Session, but be continued throughout the year. A portion of the building has been erected, and is now occupied. The objects for which the College is established are : — (a) The musical advancement of the Students of the Tonic Sol-fa Method. The term Tonic Sol-fa Method means the method of teaching musical subjects, which is set forth in the publica- tions of the late Mr. John Curwen, and such developments of the same method as may be adopted by Special Resolution at an Extraordinary General Meeting of Members. (b) The training of Teachers of the Tonic Sol-fa Method. (c) The extension of musical knowledge among the people by means of the Tonic Sol-fa Method. (d) The holding of Examinations and the awarding of certificates, scholarships, and fellowships. (e) The doing all such other lawful things as are incidental or conducive to the attainment of the above objects. The income and property of the College, whencesoever derived, shall be applied solely towards the promotion of the objects of the College. During the year ending May 31st, 1880, Certificates of various grades in the practice and theory of Music were issued to the number of 11,237. Mr. John Spencer Curwen, the indefatigable President of the College, has written a very able pamphlet entitled “ The Story of Tonic Sol-fa,” and he introduces his article with the following interesting particulars : — There was living at Norwich, about the year 1812, the daughter of an English clergyman, who, with her sister, was active in all kinds of philanthropic work. A young Sunday-school teacher came to her sister one day, wanting to learn enough of singing to be able to use his voice in church. His instructress set to work to play a tune to him repeatedly on the pianoforte, while he endeavoured to imitate with his voice the sounds which the instrument gave forth. It soon occurred to Miss Glover, how- SCHOOLS OF MUSIC. 619 ever, — for this was the lady's name, — that if she pasted letters over the keys of the pianoforte, and then wrote on a piece of paper the letters corre- sponding with those placed over the keys, in the order in which they needed to be touched to bring forth the tune, the youth might teach himself. So she chose the last twelve letters of the alphabet, and pasted them over the black and white keys. But 0, P, Q, and the rest, looked barbarous, and the question came “ Why not place the old Sol-fa syllables beneath the pitch notes, and slide them up and down, following the key- note of each tune, after the genuine fashion of solmisation ? ” It was not long before do, re, mi, and the rest, were thus added, and then those who tried to pick up a tune in Miss Glover’s way told her that they never looked at 0, P, Q, finding all they needed in do, re, mi. She therefore discarded the letters, except w T hen they were necessary, in the beginning of a tune, to tell where its pitch lay. All that was left was a Sol-fa Notation of Music. The thought of music, thus cleared from the mystery of sharps and flats, was in itself so fascinating, that Miss Glover was led on with increasing interest. She began a series of experiments with the children of the City Charity School, the Norwich Union, and the parish school of Pake field, in Suffolk. The work was not all encouraging, for musical people said that the attempt to teach music by a notation of letters was chimerical, while others thought that if children were taught to read music, it would be pretty well over with their morals. But Miss Glover’s patient perseverance conquered, and her work went on. She had received a thorough musical education, and had obtained from Dr. Marsh the idea of a family of keys — the principal major key with its relative minor, and their offspring, the key of the dominant with its relative minor, and that of the sub-dominant with its relative minor. On this idea her ladder of tune was founded. Her way of writing music was nothing more serious than the letters of this diagram, already familiarised to the mind’s eye, written down in horizontal lines. “ My own connection with the system,” says Mr. Curwen, “has arisen in this wise. I am one who is deeply interested in the education of children. About eight years ago — we are quoting from a paper read to some school- teachers in the year 1846 — I became anxious to teach a number of them under my charge to sing, chiefly with the design of making them love the Sunday-school. Having no natural advantages of ear or voice, I sought help. I learnt a few tunes, and with the assistance of a friend, taught them to the children. We had 200 children for two hours twice a week. By dint of loud singing we carried the voices of the children with us, and taught them many tunes. We endeavoured most strenuously also to give them a knowledge of crotchets and quavers, flats and sharps, and clefs, hoping thereby to give some permanence to the fruits of our labours ; but this was in vain. We succeeded, however, in producing most delightful results for the time, although they extended not beyond the particular tunes which we had taught with extreme labour. For myself, all this while I could neither pitch a well-known tune properly, nor by any means “ make out ” from the notes the plainest psalm -tune which I had not heard before. To obtain that moderate ability was the height of my musical ambition. I therefore sought a private teacher, who, with the help of a piano, drummed much practice into me, but no independent power. I now saw that Miss Glover’s plan was to teach first the simple and beautiful thing Music, and to delay the introduction to the ordinary antiquated mode of writing it, until the pupil had obtained a mastery of 620 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. the thing itself. Her method was, beyond all controversy, more deeply established on the principles of the science than any other ; and, by giving it a fair trial on myself, and on a little child who lived in the same house, I became convinced that it was also the most simple of all — the most easy to teach and the most easy to learn.” The Rev. E. P. Cachemaille, M.A., Vicar of S. Peter’s Stepney, has written an article entitled “ The Tonic Sol-fa Method, the Sunday-school, and Church Psalmody,” of which the following is an extract : — “ Music is a power,” especially with children ; and the simpler and more effective the method of teaching music, the more easily can that power be wielded. Music forms an indispensable element in the day-school instruc- tion, but it is of scarcely less use and importance in the Sunday-school ; for our Sunday-school teachers are generally some of our most devout, earnest, and intelligent communicants, and our Sunday-scholars are, or ought to be, the future members of our congregations. There is the closest connection between the Sunday-school and the Church. By pro- moting music in our Sunday-schools, then, we not only do our scholars a moral good, and provide them with a heaven-sent means of innocent and wholesome recreation, but also we exercise a powerful influence on our Church psalmody, and train up intelligent recruits for our Church choirs.

President . — His Grace the Duke of Westminster, K.G. By the will of the late Mr. Gardener he left the munificent sum of 300,000^. to promote the welfare of the blind, and it is not improbable that this benefaction might constitute the commencement of a new epoch with regard to the position and education of the blind in this, country. At present this is the only high School of Music for the blind, and it undertakes no other work than to teach them music and to prepare them by general education to be musicians ; 70 to 80 per cent, of the pupils educated here learn to maintain themselves and earn incomes of from 50 1. to 100£. a year. The cost of building and founding the College was 25,000 1. It is charm- ingly situated on the slope of a terraced hill. There is a gymnasium for the pupils, and a large level playground, covered with green turf, bounded by a broad walk paved with planks at the corners to indicate to the blind Students when they should turn. The terraces are severally appropriated to the recreation of pupils of different age and sex. There are 82 pupils in the Institution. Of the eleven who left last year, nine are well employed ; the other two are forming private connexions as pianoforte tuners. Mr. J. F. Campbell, the Principal, is himself blind, and he is an accom- plished musician, and a true benefactor to the blind. Sir Rutherford SCHOOLS OF MUSIC. 62 I Alcock is the Treasurer, and Lord Richard Grosvenor, M.B., is the Chairman of the Executive Committee. The Institution was founded on the 1st March, 1872, and its object, as before stated, is to afford a thorough general technical and musical educa- tion to the youthful blind of both sexes who possess the requisite talent, so as to qualify them for self-maintenance. Experience has shown that the blind can seldom fully support themselves merely by* manual labour , and the great majority of those who have been trained to industrial trades continue to require charitable assistance during their whole life. It is well known that many of the blind possess musical talent, yet only a small number in the United Kingdom have ever been qualified to earn their living by the profession of music. Such was formerly the case in other countries, but during recent years great improvements in the general and musical education of the blind have been effected abroad, particularly in France and America, and large num- bers of this class, educated in the institutions of those countries, have been enabled to maintain themselves fully by various pursuits, especially as skilled organists, teachers, pianists, and pianoforte tuners. In view of the practical results of the improved education of the blind in other countries, the Normal College and Academy of Music was founded in order to afford similar advantages to the youthful blind of the United Kingdom. Upwards of 80 pupils from London and other large towns have been under instruction ; a number have already left the College, and are now regularly employed as thoroughly competent pianoforte tuners, and .the progress of the pupils generally has proved so satisfactory that numerous eligible candidates from all parts of the kingdom, who will soon pass the age for effective training, are now anxious to obtain the special education and training afforded at the Normal College. Musical Department. — Through the earnest labours of able teachers, the pupils have made great progress in this department during the year. In his regular pianoforte recitals, Mr. Hartvigson is playing and carefully analysing the most useful works for the piano. There is an excellent organ in the new hall, Mr. Hopkins being the teacher. The Messrs. Broadwood, who have always been among the most liberal patrons, have recently placed one of their finest concert grands in the new hall for the use of the College ; and Dr. Armitage has presented one large and two small organs, which have been erected at the cost of a thousand guineas. School Department. — The duties of the school begin and close each day with simple devotional services. The recitations and lessons, with the exception of pianoforte classes, continue forty- five minutes — fifteen minutes of each hour being devoted to recreation. Each pupil is also required to spend an hour in the gymnasium for special gymnastic training. Classes receive instruction in reading, writing, spelling, defining, Bible history, Eng- lish grammar, analysis, elocution, objects, natural history, political and physical geography, physiology, natural philosophy, arithmetic, and geometry. In the evening all the pupils are required to listen to well -selected historical and general reading, and for this purpose they are arranged in classes, according to age and ability. Teachers . — Miss M. C. Greene, and Miss E. S. Adams. The fees vary somewhat according to age. Pupils over 13 years of age are charged 60L per annum. This includes board and general education, use 622 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. of instruments, etc. Pupils are admitted from 7 to 21 years of age, at first only on trial, and they only become permanent pupils when the Principal is able to certify that in his opinion the candidate can be qualified for self- maintenance by a thorough course of training. A number of Scholarships have been established by Local Committees in Glasgow, Edinburgh, Paisley, Dundee, Manchester, Bristol, and other towns. Examinations in the Educational Department have usually been con- ducted by one of Her Majesty’s Inspectors of Schools, and are held with the Musical Examinations at Easter. The annual vacation begins early in August, and closes early in October. Neither pains nor expense is spared to make the instruction equal to that given in the very best schools for sighted persons.

ROYAL SOCIETY OF MUSICIANS OF GREAT BRITAIN, 12, LISLE STREET, LEICESTER SQUARE, W. “ To deliver the poor that cry.” This Society was founded in 1738, for the maintenance of aged and indigent musicians, their widows and orphans, and it was incorporated by Royal Charter in 1789. It is at present supporting fifteen members, forty- three widows, and twelve children. The Earl of Dudley is one of the patrons of the Society; and this excellent and valuable Institution calls for the generous and open-handed support of all lovers of music. The origin of the Institution, like that of many others, was purely acci- dental. Above a century ago, a celebrated German oboe-player of the 624 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. name of Kytch came to this country, where he soon obtained such eminence that he was engaged at two or three private parties in an evening, to play Opera songs, etc., etc., which he executed with exquisite taste and feeling. But, with all the patronage and encouragement that Kytch enjoyed, he, like too many other talented men, was very improvident : he neglected his family, then himself ; consequently he became totally incapable of appear- ing before any respectable assembly, and at last he was found one morning in St. James’s Market, breathless. That “ great good often rises from partial evil ” has been verified in this instance. Soon after the death of Kytch, Festing, the celebrated violinist, Weidemann, the flute-player, who instructed His Majesty George the Third, and Vincent, the oboe-player, were standing at the door of the Orange Coffee House in the Haymarket, when they observed two very in- teresting boys driving milch asses ; on enquiring who they were, they proved to be the orphans of the unfortunate Kytch. With a feeling that reflects honour on their memories, they entered into a subscription to rescue the children of their departed brother-professor from such a de- grading situation ; and on consulting with Dr. Green and several other eminent composers, on the necessity of a fund to alleviate the distress of indigent musicians, their widows and orphans, they established, on the 19th of April, 1738, this Society. The Founders of this Society worked with energy and determination, and in a very short time the most celebrated musicians of that period were enrolled as members, Handel being one of the professors who took part in this great movement, and who continued throughout his life to watch over the interests of the Institution. He testified his appreciation of the good effected by bequeathing 1,000Z. to its funds. In the year 1789 the Society was granted a Royal Charter by His Majesty King George III. ; and from the constant interest taken by this sovereign in its welfare, as well as the large amount it received from the Commemora- tion Festivals at Westminster Abbey, amounting to 25,000Z., it was enabled to diffuse an extent of relief and comfort to its distressed members com- mensurate with the views of its promoters. From that time to the present, each year has been marked by a constant accession to its funds. Sub- scriptions, donations, and legacies, contributed by those interested in the encouragement of the art of Music, and in the welfare of its professors, are presented at each anniversary. In 1789 the Institution was made a corporate body, under the designa- tion of “ The Royal Society of Musicians of Great Britain,” to be managed by twelve Governors and a Court of Assistants, consisting of forty-eight members. During the last season, over 3,000Z. were expended in providing for the maintenance of the widows and orphans, and solacing the declining years of its poorer members, who, in old age — having worked hard, oftentimes ill- paid — had been precluded and disabled from continuing the stern struggle for employment. The payment of ten guineas constitutes an honorary subscriber for life ; and the payment of one guinea, or more, annually, an honorary subscriber ; for which each subscriber is entitled to two half -guinea tickets for the Society’s Annual Performance of Handel’s Oratorio, “ The Messiah,” (Con- ductor, Mr. W. G. Cusins,) at which the distinguished Artists kindly give their gratuitous services. It is a most interesting scene when the claimants attend at the Society’s COLLEGE OF ARMS. 625 Rooms, in the first or second week in June, to make a declaration of their income, independently of the Society’s allowance, to behold the happy and contented appearance of the widows, some of whom have been claimants for forty or fifty years. The Society enrols on its list of more than 200 Members the names of ladies and gentlemen possessing talent in their profession, second to none in Europe, who not only afford .pecuniary aid, but who devote a great por- tion of their valuable time to the business of the Institution. j Patrons.

This ancient corporation, rich in historic associations, does not, as might be inferred from its title, afford any means of instruction in the “mysteries of. Heraldry;” and it has been said that there is no institution in London, around which so inpenetrable a barrier has been thrown. Instruc- tion in the science is not however exactly a “ sealed letter,” but is exclu- sively confined to its own members and employes who acquire chiefly the knowledge of such duties as pertain to their respective positions. Her Majesty’s College of Arms is one of the oldest, if not the oldest, Institution in the Kingdom. It is composed of fourteen members, namely, one Earl Marshal, three Kings of Arms, six Heralds, and four Pursuivants. The Patronage of the College belongs to the Duke of Norfolk as Hereditary Earl Marshal. Stanley House was the - original tenement, which was destroyed in the great fire, anno domini 1666, and the present building is a quaint-looking edifice situated in Queen Victoria Street, E.C. A mistaken idea prevails, that this College is a wealthy one. There was a time when no doubt it was so, as for some centuries it was the sole channel of honours flowing from the crown to the subject, and at one period the fees that were paid to the “College of Arms/’ as well as to the Crown, were very considerable indeed, but now that compulsory honours are no longer known, the receipts have greatly fallen off, and the salaries attaching to the various offices have remained as they originally were. At the present day the Garter King of Arms enjoys a nominal stipend of 49/. a year. The Heralds receive something like 18/. a year, and the Pursuivants possibly a less amount. The working of this useful Insti- tution costs the public, however, nothing. It is not merely in matters of pageantry and dignity with which the Heralds’ College has to do. Many questions with regard to inheritance have been settled by a reference to what are termed the Visitation Books, which contain the fullest particulars 40 VOL. I, 626 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. of the family history of the nobility and gentry of this country, from the Reformation to the Revolution. The official records of the College of Arms are- divided under twelve heads, namely: — (1) The Visitation Books, above referred to ; (2) books of miscellaneous pedigrees entered both during and after the period of the visitations ; (3) books of the pedigrees and arms of peers ; (4) books of the pedigrees and arms of baronets ; (5) books of the funeral certificates of the nobility and gentry ; (6) books containing accounts of coronations and Royal marriages and funerals ; (7) books called the Earl Marshal’s Books, from the reign of Queen Elizabeth ; (8) books of the arms of Peers, Knights of the Garter and Bath, and copies of all grants of armorial bearings ; (9) a list of Knights from early times, and the names of all persons on whom knighthood has been conferred from the beginning of the seventeenth century ; (10) a register of the pedigrees and arms of Knights and Esquires of the Bath from the beginning of the current century; (11) registers of the pedigrees and arms of Scotch and Irish families under the authority of the Lyon and Ulster Kings of Arms respectively; (12) books termed Partition Books, commencing in the reign of Henry VIII., and containing an account of the fees received by and distributed among the officers of arms for their attendance at public ceremonials, and for the performance of other duties by them. In addition to this, the library of the College of Arms contains nearly 1,200 other MS. volumes, consisting of copies of visitations, collections of pedigrees and arms, transcripts and abstracts of charters, deeds, inquisitions, and other records applicable to genealogical and antiquarian researches ; comprehending the accumulated labours of Glover, Camden, Vincent, Phillpot, Walker, Dugdale, Le Neve, Dale, Brooke, and Townsend, and these of other distinguished and able members of the College. With the custody of such important records the College of Arms must undoubtedly remain as one of the permanent and necessary Institutions of the country. In Scotland there is a College of Arms, consisting of Lyon, King of Arms, and three Heralds ; and in Ireland the Chief Heraldic officer is styled Ulster King of Arms.

Prize Medals were instituted in 1868, by this important Society, to be competed for at the chief Public Schools, and to be awarded annually; and a limited number of schools are specially invited to compete for them. The medals were formerly gold and bronze, but the second medal is now of silver instead of bronze. The subjects of examination are Physical Geo- graphy and Political Geography ; two papers being set in each, one general, and one on some particular country or region, changed every year. With regard to the medals offered by the Society to the chief public schools, eleven schools have sent candidates this year, seven schools sending eleven candidates in physical geography, and four schools sending six candidates in political geography. Forty-eight public schools were invited to send candidates, and this year there was one school less than in the previous year. No silver (second) medal has been awarded this year in political geography. Dulwich College, which sent two medallists, has gained at least one every year since 1875. The medallists in physical geography — Mr. Thomas Rose, gold medallist, and Mr. S. W. Carruthers, silver medallist, both of Dulwich College ; and 628 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. in political geography, Mr. S. C.

Bellingham Brady, Esq., LL.D. The subject of “ Irish Intermediate Education ” occupied the public mind in Ireland for some considerable time, and the voice of its require- ments has been at last heard above the din of agrarian turmoil and sectarian agitation, by the steady and determined attitude of the middle class of the Irish nation, which was thoroughly responded to by the late Government, in framing in the early part of 1878, and passing into law (August 16th, 1878), ‘‘the Irish Intermediate Education Act.” The term “ Irish Intermediate Education ” is on the face of it somewhat vague ; it seems to imply a system of education (not of fixed Schools), occupying a platform between the Universities and Primary Schools, a sort of debatable ground between the former two regions, an ill-defined terri- tory, the inhabitants of which could not well see their way to push the limits upwards (in dread, no doubt, of trenching upon the vested interests of others), nor, on the other hand, to tread downwards, as a sort of amovr propre feeling forbade the latter course. However, to borrow a bold, but perhaps perverted metaphor, the cause of “Irish Intermediate Education ” could scarcely be described as having life enough left to fall into a “place where two seas met.” Matters were in this plight when the late Government, in August, 1878, passed the now justly celebrated “ Irish Intermediate Education Bill; ’’the all-but unanimous support of which in both Houses of Parliament proved that the sense of the combined Legislature of the United Kingdom recognized in the measure a gift of “justice to Ireland,” in the broad and true meaning of the term. The late Government, so often charged with the dangerous craze of riding hobbies in a highly aggressive style, over the pet corns of foreign potentates, nevertheless found time in the face of most heavy continental troubles to cast an eye upon the educational wants of that considerable section of the Irish people who were practically excluded from any share in the existing organisations for middle class education. The late Government had special difficulties in dealing with this proposed Educational Scheme. On the one hand there were those who would oppose any system which required Roman Catholics to attend at institutions not under the control of their Church authorities, while on the other many would resent any attempt at the concurrent endow- OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. 632 ment of a new set of colleges and schools and the establishment of a regular system of denominational education. The late Government clearly foresaw these difficulties, and they managed, between a sort of “ Scylla and Charybdis” to steer the “Intermediate Education” bark into safety by the cautious rule of “ In medio tutissimus ibis.” Having now briefly referred to the preliminary difficulties attending a scheme of Irish “Intermediate Education,” we wish to inform our readers that up to the passing of the Intermediate Education Act the edu- cational requirements were met only by the following scholastic systems, two in number : — I. By the High-class Royal Schools (six in number), by the four “ Erasmus Smith ” Grammar Schools, Midleton College, by the steadily advancing schools of the Incorporated Society, by some minor Endowed Schools, and by some totally unendowed Schools, some of the latter frequently competing for high University distinctions, upon equal terms with their richly endowed relatives. Of late years also many institutions have been established by the teaching orders of the Roman Catholic Church, which institutions, as well as the Diocesan seminaries of that church throughout the country, in the recent contests under the Intermediate Education Board and the Royal University, have shown that they possess very high teaching powers, and that their teaching extends over every department of a modern liberal education. In none of the endowed institutions, however, was any provision made for the higher education of girls. The Alexandra College in Dublin, established in 1866, under most influential patronage, but without any State or public aid, and served by most distinguished professors, may be regarded as the only attempt of any public kind made towards improving female higher education until the passing of the Intermediate Education Act. See vol. ii. II. Under this head we find the “ Primary Schools,” chiefly under the “National School” State-aid system, receiving about 700,000£. per annum from the Imperial Exchequer ; here we have a network of Primary Schools spread over the length and breadth of the land, some vested in the “ National Education ” Board, the majority “ non- vested,” but all receiving “ State aid ” more or less. This system has worked admirably, and its Schools are to be found as well upon the lonely mountain-side and in the deep secluded valley, as in the busy town or thriving village. Of course these Primary Schools cannot be ex- pected to impart what is called “ Intermediate Education,” and no rewards are held out to National School teachers under the Intermediate Education system. An examination of the published results will, how- ever, show that, notwithstanding this drawback, many pupils of National Schools have passed most creditably at the Intermediate examinations. The Irish middle classes, with that insatiable craving for learning so characteristic of the Irish people from the remotest times, (indeed, during the dark ages Ireland kept the lamp of learning burning brightly amid the all but universal gloom,) hailed with great and general delight the prospect of “ Intermediate Education,” offered by an Act which, although open to corrections, and imperfect in some of its details, seems nevertheless based upon principles of generosity and justice. As the object of the “ Irish Intermediate Education Act ” has been already IRISH INTERMEDIATE EDUCATION. 633 stated, we shall now give a brief sketch of the way, first, in which it is worked, and secondly, of the results which have already accrued from its working. We may premise that the main principle of the Act is essentially “ non- sectarian.” I. The machinery for working the Act and the modus operandi is as follows : — A. A staff of eminent Examiners, selected from the Universities and principal Colleges of the United Kingdom. Out of a list of names prepared annually by the Board, a sufficient number are selected, with the approval of the Irish Lord-Lieutenant, to conduct each annual examination. B. A numerous staff of “centre superintendents,” whose special busi- ness lies in taking charge of the sealed packets of Examination papers sent them by the Intermediate Education Commissioners, opening said packets and distributing them to the Candidates at the several Examination centres. These the Candidates answer to a certain number, not a name, and must, previous to presenting them- selves, have subscribed to certain necessarily stringent rules laid down by the Commissioners. The centre superintendents are bound to remain in their respective Examination Halls the whole time of the Examinations, and the Examinations last from 10 o’clock a.m. to 1 o’clock p.m., and from 3 o’clock p.m. to 6 o’clock p.m. Having thus given a brief, and it is to be feared a somewhat imperfect sketch of the mode of working out the arrangements of the “ Irish Intermediate Education ” system, we shall give an outline of the results that have already accrued from the Examinations held under the Act in June 1882. Of 5,153 boys and 1,461 girls who presented themselves for examination in June 1882, the following were successful : — I. In gaining Exhibitions and money prizes : — ( a ) 90 boys and 32 girls gained 15 l. a year for three years in the Junior Grade ( [i.e ., for those under 16). (A) 28 boys and 12 girls gained 25 l. a year for two years in the Middle Grade {i.e., for those under 17). () 568 boys and 236 girls in the Middle Grade. ( 0 ) 229 boys and 96 girls in the Senior Grade. Total, 2983 boys and 1017 girls. The English public can judge from the foregoing facts what a great educational stimulus this “Intermediate Education” Act has given to the Irish middle classes, by offering and giving so liberally such a large number of substantial prizes to every creed and party. 634 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. A political, or rather a sectarian, objection has been brought against this Irish “ Intermediate Education ” Act, viz., that it diverted one million of money of the “ Irish Church ” surplus to carry out the pro- gramme of this Act, some saying the scheme was pretty similar to that of “ robbing Peter to pay Paul ; ” but an educational scheme which offers such signal advantages to the Irish middle classes — out of merely a million of the capitalised value of Church funds — should not for a moment be called an act of spoliation, as the advantages are offered on equal terms to all candidates. The results of the examinations were, however, a complete surprise to many, for they disclosed an educational power amongst the Roman Catholic institutions which few even of their own friends could have expected from them. To conclude these remarks about this Irish “ Intermediate Educa- tion ” Act. A leading feature of the scheme is its recognition of the efforts of teachers engaged in the work of “ Intermediate Education ” under the Act. Prizes are awarded to the teachers according to the quantity and quality of their pupils’ successes ; these prizes are called Teachers’ “ Result Fees,” and they have already proved, and doubtless will continue to prove, a strong encouragement to Teachers, and thus it is only reasonable to conclude that this twofold system of encouragement — viz., both to pupils and teachers — must in the long run greatly raise the standard of “ Intermediate Education ” in Ireland. In writing these remarks, we are not influenced by any particular bias. Indeed, we care not whether this Irish “ Intermediate Educational ” Scheme were evolved out of the “ internal consciousness ” of some sombre, strait-laced “ Conser- vative,” or by some cautious, forecasting, constitutional “Whig,” or whether it were forged in the glowing furnace of some fiery Radical, or concocted in the fertile brain of some “ Chameleon,” “ Protean,” time- serving politician : we simply hail the “ Irish Intermediate Act,” as an act of real justice to Ireland, and amidst the loud din of electioneering struggles, and the convulsive efforts of rival politicians, we wish the Irish Intermediate Education Act all success. The Intermediate Education Board for Ireland was established to promote intermediate secular education in Ireland by (1) instituting and carrying on a system of public examination of studies ; (2) by providing for payment of prizes and exhibitions, and for giving certificates to students ; (3) by providing for payment of managers of schools complying with prescribed conditions of fees dependent on results of public exami- nations ; (4) generally by applying the funds placed at the disposal of the Board for purposes of the Act as hereby directed, provided no examination be held in any subject of religious instruction, nor any payment made in respect thereof. The examinations extend over a course of three years, and are held in accordance with rules of which the following is a summary : — The examinations in three grades according to the students’ ages are held usually at the end of June, at convenient centres, and in the following subjects -. Ancient Language, Literature, and History of Greece ; ditto of Rome ; Language, Literature, and History of Great Britain and Ireland ; ditto of France, Germany, iand Italy, or any one of them, either separately or together, with Celtic Language and Literature ; Mathematics, including Arithmetic and Bookkeeping ; Natural Sciences ; any other subjects of secular education as the Board may from time to time prescribe.

The list of examiners will be published every year, before January 1. Students of first year’s course shall be under 16 on June 1st in the year in which he first presents himself for examination. Every student desiring to be examined in any year shall in April send to the Board notice of his intention, with certifi- cate of his age ; the fee for such notice is 2s. bd. Before admitting any student to an examination, the Board shall satisfy itself that during the twelve months immediately preceding the examination he has actually studied in Ireland. The prizes and exhibitions are alluded to in the introductory article, and such prizes and exhibitions are awarded to students highest in order of merit in general examination list of the whole country in each year. Result fees are paid to heads of schools for students who, having attended their schools from November 1st of the year previous to that of examination, and having made at least 100 attendances from that date to the last day of the month preceding the examination, may pass the examination. Results fees will be paid at rates not exceeding — junior grade, Is. 3 d. per 100 marks assigned to subject or section ; middle grade, Is. bd. per 100 marks assigned to subject or section ; senior grade, Is. 9 d. per 100 marks assigned to subject or section ; provided that in the case of any one student there shall not in one year be paid, in the aggregate, in the junior grade, a results fee greater than 3 1. 10s. ; in the middle grade, a results fee greater than 47. ; or in the senior grade, a results fee greater than bl. + IRISH INTERMEDIATE COLLEGES AND SCHOOLS. + THE EOYAL SCHOOLS. There are seven of the Schools which are designated “ Royal Schools.” Five were founded by King Charles I., in 1627, viz., Armagh, Cavan, Dungannon, Enniskillen, and Raphoe, and the remaining two, viz., Banagher and Carysfort, were founded in 1629. The following Schools in Ireland will be found in Part YI 1 1., in topographical order. Armagh, Royal School. Head Master, Rev. W. Moore Morgan, LL.D. Banagher, Royal School. Head Master, P.

These were the earliest Academical Institutions in Ireland, and were intended to meet the educational wants of the middle classes ; they were founded in the reign of Queen Elizabeth, and were maintained by contributions levied off the incomes of the clergy of the late Established Church. When the Church of Ireland was disestablished in 1869 the Diocesan School system was practically discontinued, for the Act enabled the schoolmasters to commute their salaries, and retire from their work, a privilege which was availed of by nearly all the schoolmasters. Of 14, which were in existence in 1869, only 2 (in addition to Foyle College) are now in existence under the old foundation.

We glean from the report of the Commissioners appointed by the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland to inquire into the endowments, funds, and actual condition of all schools endowed for the purposes of education in Ireland, the following “ conclusions” : — “ The inactivity of ‘ The Commissioners of Education,’ * and the in- adequacy of their powers, have continued to cause the inefficiency of that Board, and tended to confirm ‘its failure as an institution for the promotion of education.’ In this and other instances the selection, as the ex-officio managers of endowments, of dignitaries and officials whose time and attention are otherwise occupied, has tended to preclude that active * These Commissioners have the control of the Royal and other Endowed Schoqfs, and are not to he confounded either with the Intermediate Education CommissioneVs or the Commissioners of National Education. IRISH INTERMEDIATE EDUCATION. 639 personal exertion and interest, and that sense of individual responsibility on the part of the members of a governing body, which are necessary to secure efficiency. “ Since the passing of the Irish Church Act, 1869, the resources of the educational societies and of the independent schools connected with the Church of Ireland have generally diminished, and many of the primary Church schools have in consequence been brought into the system of national education. Where this step has not been taken, these schools have generally deteriorated. “ A growing tendency has been manifested, especially by the members of the Church of Ireland, to place primary schools, possessing endow- ments or aided by voluntary contributions, in connection with the National Board, retaining the patronage or management in private hands. The schools so placed have generally benefited by the change, but have remained practically denominational. We met but very few instances of ‘non-exclusive ’ Endowed Schools where the attendance of children of one denomination did not largely preponderate; and, owing to the objections of Homan Catholics to ‘mixed education,’ and to the mode in which the majority of the 4 non-exclusive ’ endowed schools were managed, we found that the benefits of such schools were usually enjoyed by Protestant children, and that the management of their endowments had generally passed into Protestant hands. “ While the course of discipline and instruction in the larger grammar schools is in most cases satisfactory, and much sound and careful teaching is given in the schools of every class, many of the smaller local endow- ments (especially for higher education) have proved inadequate, and have failed to effectuate the intentions of the founders. With few exceptions, the teaching of natual and experimental sciences and of modern languages has been comparatively neglected ; the schools are in general insufficiently furnished, and imperfectly supplied with libraries and the appliances required for special instruction and for recreation. The want of more extensive provision for practical and technical training, and of an education adapted to prepare pupils for commercial life and other pursuits not calling for classical study, has been much felt.” The Commission from whose report the above is extracted included the Earl of Itosse, Lord Randolph S. Churchill, and Lord Justice Fitzgibbon. 640 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. Ol It AGRICULTURAL COLLEGES. 4, On the subject of European Agricultural Schools we learn from the report of the Commissioners of Education that Austria supports no less than seventy Schools of Agriculture, with 2,200 students, besides 174 Agricultural Evening Schools, with 5,500 students. In contrast with this, Italy has three Agricultural Colleges and High Schools. Ireland is the only part of the United Kingdom that has a regular system of agricul- tural education. There are 115 of the National Schools that have a farm attached, and form National Agricultural Farm Schools. There are, besides, sixteen National Model Agricultural Schools, with Model Farms attached. The Albert Institute at Glasnevdn is the National Agricultural College of Ireland. France has forty- three Farm Schools, with about thirty or forty pupils at each. The Government pays the board of each pupil, and allows him 70 fr. a year for clothing. There are also three Departmental Schools of Agriculture, and a National Agricultural Insti- tute (now in Paris). Germany has at present over 150 Schools of Agri- culture, Horticulture, Arboriculture, viniculture, etc. Each of these has Farms, Gardens, etc., attached. The first experimental Agricultural Station was established in 1852, and in 1877 their number was fifty-five. Each of these is devoted to some special line of research. Mr. Henry Tanner recently called public attention to the present neglected state of Agricultural Education in England. He states that “ it has long been a reproach to us as a people that we are so much in the rear of other countries in providing facilities for the technical education of the great majority of those who are about to enter upon the occupation and management of land. It is true that we have two very good Agri- cultural Colleges in England, which are very well suited for the education of the more wealthy class, but these colleges are absolutely beyond the reach of the children of the great bulk of the tenant-farmers of this kingdom. An effort has been made by the Council of the Institute of Agriculture to correct this difficulty, and friendly help which has been given to them has enabled them to supply the deficiency, so far at least as the London centre is concerned. Here, then, the work will be re-commenced on the 1st of October next, and a regular and fairly complete course of about 280 lectures will be given, extending up to the 3rd of May, 1884. The lecturers, about twenty in number, are all well known in the Agri- cultural world as very eminent experts in their respective section of work, while the lecture fees will be so very moderate that the entire series may be attended for the sum of 14 1. The objects aimed at by the Council were thorough efficiency and experience on the part of the lecturers, and, on the other hand, small fees, which should not keep back the sons of tenant-farmers, or any others who may desire a moderate expenditure. The entire course of study may be regarded as calculated to give that intelligent knowledge of the surrounding conditions which influence agricultural practices which will make the subsequent learning of the business of farming more than usually complete. No institution has more cordially aided the Council than the College AGRICULTURAL COLLEGES. 641 of Agriculture at Downton, near Salisbury, for no fewer than three members of the staff (Professor J. Wrightson, the president, Professors Fream and Sheldon) have richly assisted in the work of the current session, and have thereby helped to prepare some of the students of the institute for learning the application of science to actual farm practice. ROYAL AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY, 12, HANOVER SQUARE, LONDON, W. President. — J. D. Dent, Esq. Society’s Education Prizes.

Patron. — His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, K.G. President. — His Grace the Duke of Richmond and Gordon, K.G., and a large Committee of Management. This institution, which is the chief seat of higher Agricultural Educa- tion in this country, was founded in 1845, under the patronage of the late Prince Consort, and a large number of noblemen and gentlemen interested in agriculture. A Royal Charter was granted, incorporating the College for “ Encouraging and Supporting the Study of Agriculture.” The Prince of Wales is the present Patron, the late Duke of Marlborough w^as the President. The College is situated about a mile from the town of Cirencester, on the flank of the Cots wolds ; it adjoins the noble Oakley Park, the seat of Lord Bathurst, and is a stately Gothic building situated in the midst of the College farm. It includes a chapel, dining hall, library, reading-rooms, museums, lecture-theatre, laboratory, class-rooms, ^studies, and private rooms ; and in close proximity are a botanic garden, veterinary hospital, forges, and workshops. The College farm completely surrounds the College, and contains about 500 acres, of which 450 are arable ; about twenty acres being exclusively reserved for agricultural experiments. “ Practice with Science” is the adopted motto of the Society. The staff of instructors includes Professors of Agriculture and Estate Management, Agricultural Law, General and Agricultural Chemis- try, Natural History, Mathematics and Physics, Laud -Surveying and Engineering, Veterinary Science, and Building, besides practical instruc- tion in field work, carpentry, wheelwright work, forge work, and saddlery. Provision is also made for athletic exercise and recreation. There are a gymnasium, fives courts, tennis court, and cricket and football grounds. The College course extends over at least two years, after which Students are admitted to the final examination for the diploma which the College by its charter is authorised to confer. The students comprise young men from all parts of the world, those from Great Britain being usually the sons of landed gentlemen and professional men, who desire to qualify themselves either for the duties of country gentlemen or as land agents, or for the colonies. Several officers of the Indian army have, from time to time, spent their furlough there, with a view of qualifying themselves for forest and agricultural appointments in India. In addition, however, to affording a thoroughly scientific and practical AGRICULTURAL COLLEGES. 645 education for agricultural pursuits, and the professions of Surveyors, Estate Agents, etc., the College offers to its Students many of the general advantages (educational and social) of a University Course, with an excellent training in Natural Science, and a special preparation for the duties of Country Gentlemen in the management of their Landed Estates, COLONIAL PREPARATION. The Workshops, Museum, Veterinary Hospital, etc., together with the Lectures on Colonial Agriculture, Colonial Surveying and Engineering, Building Materials and Construction, and the rest of the College Course in the Lecture Room and on the Farm, afford an exceptionally valuable training for intending Colonists. ADMISSION AND REMOVAL OF STUDENTS. Students are admitted, and begin the College Courses, every Session, either as In- Students or Out- Students. In- Students, as a rule, are required to be eighteen years of age. A few, however, are admitted on probation, and subject to somewhat stricter discipline, at the age of seventeen. Out- Students, except in special cases, are required to be twenty-one years of age, and may be of any greater age, and either married or un- married. They attend any or all of the courses of Lectures at their discretion. Duration of Course. — The ordinary College course extends over two years or six Sessions, but for the Diploma over seven Sessions. There are three Sessions in the year — Spring, Summer, and Winter — each of about twelve weeks’ duration, commencing near the 28th of January, the 28th of May, and the 6th of October, respectively. Fees. — Per annum, to be paid each Term, in proportion, in advance. In-Students, 135Z., or 4 5Z. per Term ; Out-Students, 76 Z., or 25Z. per Term. A limited number of furnished Private Rooms in the College is reserved for Students, and for which there is an extra chaage of Ten Guineas per Term.

This College, although only established in 1880, already takes high rank as a School of Agriculture. The farm constitutes a most important feature as an integral part of the College, all the live stock and implements belonging to it, the Students are required to enter fully into all the details of working the farm, which is 550 acres in extent, to keep a record of all the monetary transactions on both sides of the ledger, and to be present at the annual valuation in October. The College, therefore, offers to each Student all the advantages of a private pupil under a Farmer combined with the highest collegiate instruction in the sciences on which the Art of Agriculture is based. The College is governed by a Council consisting of the President and ordinary members. The object of the College is to afford sound and practical instruction in Agricultural Subjects, so as to qualify the Students to occupy the positions of Landowners, Land Agents, Farmers, Surveyors, and Colonists. The College, which is in South Hants, is two miles from Downton in South Wilts, where there is a station on the Salisbury and Dorchester AGRICULTURAL COLLEGES. 647 branch of the London and South-Western Railway. It is pleasantly situated in the midst of gardens and orchards, and is about a quarter of a mile from the River Avon, and commands views of the confines of the New Forest. The building at present affords accommodation for about forty In- Students, and is provided with a commodious dining-hall, com- mon-room, lecture-rooms, library, and other offices. The Laboratories. The Chemical Laboratory is large, airy, and fitted with the newest appliances. Students have here the opportunity of studying Analytical and Agricultural Chemistry and researches on subjects of general agri- cultural interest. The Physiological Laboratory is devoted to experimental courses of instruction on the structure and functions of animals and plants. The practical Anatomy of farm animals is also studied here. Admission. Each Student is required to have entered upon his eighteenth year, to find references as to general conduct, and to fill up the necessary form of admission. Gentlemen above twenty-one years of age are received as Out-Students. Excellent lodgings may be obtained in the neighbouring village of Downton. Terms and Vacations. There are three Terms and as many Vacations in the year. The charge for the entire year is 129?. for In-students, and 60?. for Out-students. These charges include, for In-students, board, lodging (with separate sleeping apartment), tuition, and laundry, but not books, apparatus, instruments, breakages, and subjects for dissection. A fee of 1 ?. 1 s. per Term is charged for the Chemical Laboratory. Instruction. Instruction is imparted by Lectures, Field Classes, Practical Work, and Catechetical Lectures ; and the results of the teaching are tested by weekly examinations, conducted on the Farm, in the Laboratories, and by means of printed papers. Each Student is expected to keep a Farm Journal, and these books are inspected and reported upon at regular intervals. Subjects. These include Agriculture, and Dairy and Pastoral Farming ; Estate Management, Land Agency, and Forestry ; Mensuration, Land-Surveying, and Architectural Drawing ; Book-keeping and Commercial Knowledge ; Physics and Mechanics ; Chemistry ; Geology and Mineralogy ; Botany and Vegetable Physiology ; Zoology, including Entomology ; Anatomy and Physiology ; Veterinary Surgery. The lectures and classes are so arranged that in the complete two years’ course the Student has laid before him everything necessary to enable him, if industrious, to pass the examinations of the Royal Agricultural Society of England, of the Highland and Agricultural Society, and of the Institution of Surveyors. Scholarships, Certificates, and Prizes. At the end of each Session a Scholarship of the value of 10?. is offered for competition amongst the Students who at that time complete their first year of Study at the College. 648 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. At the end of each Session examinations are held in the various sub- jects which have been studied, and prizes awarded. By permission of the Council the Professors are also at liberty to offer Special Prizes i«n their various departments. The Certificate of Membership. This Certificate is granted by the Council at the end of a two years’ course to all Students who, having passed the preliminary examinations, also satisfy the Board of Examiners as to their proficiency in the Theory and Practice of Agriculture. The examinations for this Certificate are held at the close of the Winter and Summer Sessions. The Certificate of Proficiency in Practical Agriculture and other Cer- tificates are granted to such Students as do not compete for the Certifi- cate of Membership, but who nevertheless acquire a sound knowledge of practical farming, supplemented by a fair general knowledge of the sciences on which the art of agriculture is based. Recreation. The College Athletic Club undertakes the promotion of all outdoor? games and sports, including boating, cricket, lawn tennis, and football. The boat-house is within three minutes’ walk of the College, and the River Avon is much frequented by the Students for boating, bathing, and fishing. A debating society, glee class, and other indoor attractions are supported in the winter months. President . — Professor Wrightson. COUNCIL. Professor Wrightson. Professor W. Fream. Professor J.

These Schools are •placed topographically , similar to the order in which the Endowed and Private and Roman Catholic Schools owe arranged , and those Institutions referring to the training of girls and women are arranged in a similar manner in Vol. II. There is a yearly examination in religious knowledge of pupils of Training Colleges, conducted by experienced clergymen appointed under a board consisting of three members, one appointed by the two Archbishops, one by the National Society, and one by the principals of Training Colleges. The results of the past year show that 963 masters were examined, of whom only three in the second year were totally unsuccessful, none of the first year students failing. Of the masters of the first year, 92 succeeded in obtaining a first class, while of the second year 53 masters were in the first class. 4 NATIONAL SOCIETY’S TRAINING COLLEGE FOR SCHOOLMASTERS, BATTERSEA, S.W. The Battersea Training College was founded in the year 1840, by Sir James P. Kay Shuttleworth, Bart., and Edward Carleton Tufnell, Esq., for the purpose of preparing young men to become Schoolmasters. Towards the close of 1843 it was transferred to “The National Society for the Edu- cation of the Poor in the principles of the Established Church,” in whose hands it has since remained. Candidates for admission are allowed to present themselves for examina- tion subject to the following conditions : viz., that they (1) intend bond fide to adopt and follow the profession of Teacher in Elementary Schools ; (2) having been Pupil Teachers, have successfully completed their appren- ticeship ; (3) not having been Pupil Teachers, will be more than eighteen years of age on January 1st next following the date of the Examination. This article will also apply to pupil teachers whose period of apprentice- ship may have been determined (1) without discredit to themselves, and (2) for reasons approved by the Education Department. The examination of candidates is held annually at each Training College. It commences at 10 a.m. on the first Tuesday after the 2nd of July. In the final selection of candidates for admission, the Principal is mainly guided by their testimonials, •physique , qualifications, and position on the Scholarship list. Candidates for admission must produce satisfactory testimonials from their clergy, certifying as to conduct and character ; and such candidates as have been pupil teachers must produce testimonials from their school- TRAINING INSTITUTIONS FOR TEACHERS. 65 1 masters also, certifying as to practical skill in teaching, attention to studies, demeanour and general fitness for the office of teacher. A grave respon- sibility is incurred by the Principal in recommending students to take the charge of young children, and it is therefore of the highest importance that no one should be admitted into the College whose habits and character dis- qualify him for the office of Schoolmaster. Each candidate for admission will be required to forward to the College a certificate of health, signed by some properly qualified medical man. A form for this purpose will be sent to each candidate before the July Examination. Each candidate must be prepared to sign, on admission, the following declaration : — “ I desire to become a Student for two years in the Battersea Training College, on the conditions contained in this prospectus, and with the understanding that I am to follow the profession of a Church Teacher in Elementary Schools ; and I engage to conform in all respects to the rules of the College, and at the end of my training to accept a School under Government inspection, and to do my utmost to obtain my Certificate from the Council Office at the earliest possible period.” Those Queen’s Scholars who are selected for admission into the College are charged an entrance fee of 10Z. Candidates who do not pass the Queen’s Scholarship Examination are not admitted under any circumstances. No payment is charged for board, lodging, washing, medical attendance, or education. Books necessary for the prescribed course of study are sold to Students at about half the published price. Candidates are admitted into the College in the January following the examination. The syllabus of subjects for examination will be found in the New Code. It is co-extensive with the subjects required in the course of a pupil teacher’s apprenticeship. Additional marks may be obtained for Language, Science, and Drawing. A copy of the questions set at the last Government Examination may be obtained from Messrs. Longman, price 6d. Timely notice of the date of the examination will be sent to each candidate. There are two long vacations, one beginning about the first week of July, and lasting till the middle of August ; the other beginning about the third week in December, and lasting till the fourth week in January. During these vacations the College is entirely closed. Usually there is also a recess of a week or ten days at Easter, during which Students residing at a dis- tance have the option of remaining at the College. Weekly examinations are held throughout the year, the results of which are registered. Prizes are awarded to those Students who have the highest aggregate of marks in each subject. Students are prepared for the examinations in connection with the Science and Art Department, South Kensington. At the examinations in May 1877, 184 Science Certificates were gained, 81 of which were of the advanced stage. After the examinations in November and December, 56 Students had completed their Full Drawing Certificates. Students are expected to rise at six o’clock in the morning, the first Lec- ture commencing at a quarter to seven. Divine Service is celebrated in the College Chapel at nine in the morning and half-past nine in the evening. Students attend both services. Students go to bed immediately after evening service. There are three meals in the course of the day ; viz., breakfast at eight, dinner at one. tea at half -past six. 652 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. One hour is spent daily in drill exercise or garden work. The Students are expected to spend a certain portion of each year in the Practising School for the purpose of learning the practical part of their profession. Great importance is attached to the Normal Master’s Report on their industry and ability, both by H. M. Inspector in assigning marks for teaching, and by the Principal in making appointments to Schools. Students are not allowed to leave the College without special permission, except on Wednesday afternoons, from twelve to six in winter, and from twelve to seven in the summer, from three to six all the year round on Saturday afternoon, and on Sunday afternoon from three to half- past five. There are in the College two organs, one pianoforte, and four harmoniums, on all of which the Students practise, the times and length of practice being determined by the Organist. The Students are formed into a Volunteer Corps. Membership is op- tional, and entails no expense. Drill takes place regularly in the College grounds, and, as often as the College arrangements permit, the Students attend Battalion Drill. The College does not pledge itself to find situations for out-going Students, but no difficulty is found in obtaining appointments for such Students as conduct themselves satisfactorily, and avail themselves of the various opportunities for improvement which the College offers.

John Anderson, M.A., F.R.S., the founder of Anderson’s University, was born at Rose- neath, in Dumbartonshire, in the year 1726, and died on 13th January, 1796, bequeathing by his will, dated 7th May, 1795, the whole of his property, with a few trifling exceptions, to the public, for the good of mankind and the improvement of science, in an institution to be denominated “ Anderson’s University,” and to be managed by 81 Trus- tees. According to the design of the founder, there were to be 4 Colleges, for Arts, Medicine, Law, and Theology, besides an Elementary School or Academy. Each College was to consist of 9 Professors, the senior of whom was to be President or Dean ; and the whole, when acting in one body, were to be called the “ Faculty of the College. The funds, however, were quite inadequate to carry out the plan, the value of the whole, including library and apparatus, being under 1 , 000 Z. Since the establishment of the Institution, it has been greatly extended, so as to render it more in accordance with the intentions of the founder. It now consists of a complete Medical School. This is taught by an efficient staff of Professors ; and from the superior character of the tuition, and its cheapness, a large body of students are attracted from all parts of the kingdom.— Foundations and Bursaries.

Helen’s Place, Bishopsgate, London, E.C. Founded 1852, Entirely supported by voluntary contributions. This school was insti- tuted in 1852, for providing a free education and maintenance for the sons of the poorer clergy of the Church of England, resident in England, Wales, or Ireland. It occupies a department of charity peculiarly its own. There are institutions, indeed, for the cheap education of the sons of the clergy, but none where they are educated free while their fathers are alive. S. John’s Foundation School is a practical assertion of two principles ; first, that it is desirable to help the living clergyman, too often inadequately paid, to bear the charges of his family ; and secondly, that the offer of an education at a cheap rate to those who can afford nothing is scarcely all that the poor labourers in Christ’s vineyard are entitled to hope for from their more wealthy brethren.

Offices : Victokia Embankment, W.C. For list of members, see page 675. According to the last official report issued in October 1883, it appears that at that time the Board had under its control 329 schools ; of those, 270 were permanent schools, 31 were held in temporary buildings, and 28 had been transferred to the Board. These schools gave accommodation to 295,746 children. These figures showed an increase upon the last report of 8 schools, and 15,471 places. There were at Easter last in the Metropolis 700,894 children requiring elementary education. The Voluntary Schools at midsummei provided for 262,238, and the Board 295,746, so that the entire provision at that time amounted to 557,984. When the Board have completed all their projected schools, they will have secured provision for 647,724 children. Meantime it was a solid gain that London had 295,725 efficient school places more than it had 12 years ago, the increase being 117-7 per cent. Sites and buildings together have averaged 16Z. 8s. 3 d. per child. In all these cases the provisions of the schools as well as the actual sites and buildings have been approved by the Education Depart- ment. As to attendance, the number on the roll for the half-year ending midsummer last was 311,695, and the average daily attendance 255,833, or 82*0 per cent. ; the percentage of the voluntary schools, at the same time, being 80*1. The attendance was secured in various ways. The Board makes its masters and mistresses responsible for the regularity of their pupils. At the same time the number of apathetic and neglectful parents is such as to render most necessary the labours of their 11 super- intendents and 247 visitorswho formed the machinery for applying com- pulsion. The Board awards prizes to children. As to the teaching staff, at Lady-day the Board had in their schools 4,087 adult teachers, of whom 544 held first-class certificates, and 2,367 second-class. There were also 1,107 pupil teachers, and 389 candidates. Bible instruction, with simple religious exercises, formed a part of the daily programme. Needlework and cookery and domestic economy were also taught in the girls’ schools ; while lectures had been given to scholars on temperance and thrift. Children had been encouraged to deposit in the Post-office Savings Bank, and libraries had been established. The Board educates 191 deaf and dumb and 105 blind children, and 515 children are provided for in industrial schools and training ships. The chief heads of expenditure for the current year are estimated as follows : — For school maintenance, a sum of 492,576Z. 5$. ; for the compulsory bye-laws, 33,539Z. 12s. ; for industrial schools and training-ships, 35,565 Z. 15s. Their sources of in- come arose from Government grants earned by scholars, amounting in the last year to 187,477Z. 15s. 8 d. But their chief dependence was on the rate, which stands at 6*8 8d.

The former President was the late Sir Anthony de Rothschild, who is now succeeded by his nephew, Sir N. M. de Rothschild. The Committee abandoned the monitorial system, and originated the tutorial system, and also devised means for training their own teachers, as done for general schools in Normal Colleges. Besides the pupils in attendance as stated above, about 100 teachers are being taught and trained in the establishment. Moses Angel is the Head Master, and continues, after 40 years of service, to direct this the largest educational establishment in the British dominions.

Stepney, Dempsey Street, Jubilee Street, The East London Union for Advanced Education. This Institution is in connection with the Government Department of Science and Art, and the City and Guilds of London Institute. President, H.R.H. the Duke of Albany. Chairman of Committee, Rev. J. F. Kitto, M.A. Treasurer, Sir Edmund Hay Currie, with 4 Trustees and 45 Vice-Presidents. The origin of the East London Union for Advanced Education (Evening Classes) will be clearly explained in the following brief introductory remarks. The object being to raise the whole character of the district intel- lectually and socially by giving young people opportunities of obtaining better positions in life. The work of the East London Branch of the Society for the Extension of University Teaching, and of the classes which 876 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. were formed with the view of acting as feeders to that movement, now ranks among the institutions of general public interest, and as an illus- tration of the extended usefulness of the “ Preparatory University Teach- ing Classes,” we find the “ East London Union for Advanced Education ” superseding the less ambitious description of the useful educational movement, which, by the labour of Mr. F. H. Parsons, was initiated, and by his perseverance, and the encouragement and assistance of public men in East London, has been promoted, until such satisfactory progress has been made, that the membership of the classes reaches the important number of 3,000, and this, too, by steady and unostentatious work, and now provides evening classes, at which the knowledge of languages, of various branches of science and art, or courses of technical study may be pursued. The objects being: — («) To maintain in the East of London an Educational centre, where instruction in the higher branches of knowledge — Science, Art, Languages, Technology, and other subjects of general utility — will, for the lowest possible fees, be afforded by Teachers of well-ascertained ability, (b) To* officially connect with the Union the various Young Men’s Societies and Institutes in the district and to enlist the co-operation through a wide area of as many as possible who come into relations with young people, such as Ministers of various Denominations, Officers and promoters of Young Men’s Societies, Clubs, Institutes,, etc..; Teachers of Public Schools, Employers of labour, and influential laymen generally, (c) To provide all necessary apparatus for carrying on the various classes and making them widely known throughout the district. The Subjects embraced in the curri- culum being : — Agriculture, Algebra, Arithmetic, Art, Book-keeping, Building Construction, Carpentry, Chemistry, Christian Evidences, Civil Service (Excise, Lower Division, Customs, Boys, Ladies), Divinity, Drawing, Elementary Classes, Elocution, English Grammar, English Composition, Experimental Physics, French, Geology, Geometry, Ger- man, Greek, Hebrew, Hygiene, Latin, Machine Construction, Magnetism and Electricity, Mathematics, Matriculation, Mechanics, Mechanical Engineering, Physiography, Physiology, Political Economy, Shorthand, Steam, Violin Class, Vocal Music (Tonic Sol-Fa). Prizes and Certificates are offered to large amounts by the Science and Art Department, the City and Guilds of London Institute, and by the Council of the Union. The fees for Science and Art Subjects are- from 3 s. to 4s. for the course of 9 months ; Commercial and other Subjects from 3s. to 4s. for 3 months, 5s. to 7s. for 6 months ; Civil Service Classes 10s. to 12s. 6d. for the course, these being brought within the reach of all possessed with the desire for mental improvement. The Institution is absolutely non-sectarian ; it is not to enter into competition with existing agencies of an educational character ; but directing its efforts to the higher educational wants of East London, it aims at providing the best teaching power, supple- menting its class work by occasional lectures. Class work is, however, the main feature. To testify to his appreciation of the educational work being done, the Duke of Albany has, upon the application of the Chair- man of the Committee, consented to become the President. Amongst those to whom the movement is indebted, the following gentlemen may be mentioned: — The Rev. John Fenwick Kitto, M.A., Rector of Stepney, son of the celebrated Dr. Kitto ; the Rev. A. J.

The object of the founders of this institution is to provide a liberal and practical educa- tion adapted to the needs of that large class of boys who may be expected to leave school at 15 or 16, and to take an active share in the Commercial life of London. The course of instruction includes all those subjects to which parents are accustomed to assign the first impor- tance, because of their immediate and obvious relation to business. It seeks, by the training of the intelligence in Mathematics, in Science, and in Literature, to encourage taste and intellectual aspiration, to develop the faculty of independent thought, and to promote the love of reading and the love of truth. The system of instruction has been confirmed and shaped by experience, and the present condition of the school is one of eminent prosperity and usefulness. Neither Latin nor Greek forms part of the staple of instruction in the school, but some pupils are prepared for the Oxford and Cambridge Locals, and up to 1873, 52 certificates had been gained, 19 in honours. The ages of the LONDON, E.C. 879 boys range from 12 years in the third form, to a little less than 15 in the sixth form, and the average age at which boys leave the school is 2 years and a half below that at which boys leave the old Public Schools. About 1,150 pupils are in attendance, and the fees are 4 guineas a year. There are several Scholarships and prizes, including the Scholarships of Baroness Rothschild, of the Fishmongers’ Company, and of the Skinners’ Company, of the value of 507., and tenable for 4 years.

The places of the scholars as they become vacant are filled by a competitive Examination (in which Greek shall not be one of the subjects) open to all such boys under 14 years of age as are in the school. Under the New Scheme there are 9 Exhibitions of 257. a year, tenable for 3 years at any place of higher education.

The 886 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. story of the origin of the school is as follows : Lady Owen was one day “ walking abroad in the fields, attended by her maidservant, when she observed a woman milking, and had a mind to try whether she could milk the cow, which she did, when an arrow was shot through the crown of her hat (then worn very tall), which so startled her that she then declared if she lived to be a lady she would erect something on that spot of ground to commemorate the great mercy shown by the Almighty in that astonishing deliverance.” Time passed on until she became a widow, when her servant, who happened to be the one who had been present when the accident occurred, reminded her of her vow. Her answer was that she remembered the affair, and would fulfil the promise. She there- fore purchased the Hermitage Estate (being ; ‘land from the Welsh Harp to the Turk’s Head”), and built thereon almshouses and a free grammar school in 1609. The story continues that the archer was Sir Thomas Owen, who afterwards married the lady.

The age of admission is 8 years, and candidates are elected for admission by votes of Governors and subscribers. Many of the pupils are prepared for the Cambridge Local Examinations, and 42 certificates had been gained by pupils, 16 in honours, up to 1873. The vacations are : 2 weeks at Midsummer ; 3 weeks at Christmas, ordinarily. As -regards the educational and general position of the school, all who have visited the institution have expressed their entire approval with the general arrangements, and the progress in educational attainments has kept pace with the other improvements. To obviate objections occasionally urged by advocates of different views on the all-important subject of education — to meet fairly the differing talents and acquirements of varying individuals — and to provide suitably for the respective positions which the pupils may be expected to occupy on leaving the institution, the school has been divided into 2 sections — Classical and Commercial. By this means eminence in either depart- ment is within the reach of all, according to the extent of intellectual attainments, or to the occupation to which each is destined, or may be expected to fill. The education comprises a sound English Commercial education, with the addition of French and German, and in the upper division the Classics and advanced Mathematics. Drawing, under com- petent tuition, was introduced in 1869, not so much as an accomplish- ment, but as a most valuable assistance in after life, many opportunities of employment being open to those possessing a knowledge of this art, which would be denied to them without such qualification ; similar con- siderations have induced the Committee, in conjunction with the Head Master, to determine on the introduction of Vocal and Instrumental Music, and for this purpose a qualified Instructor has been appointed. As a matter of Masonic History it is generally known that in the year 1717 the members of the four Lodges then existing in London, in a regularly convened assembly, constituted and declared themselves to be the “ Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons of England,” and from that event may be dated the revival of Freemasonry in the south of England. Considerable prosperity attended the new organization ; it s progress was for some time most successful in every respect, and the sut- ject of charity at an early date occupied the attention of its rulers. The first mention — the germ, in fact, of the now successful development — of a design to establish some such an institution as this is found in the records of Grand Lodge, January 31st, 1739, the Marquis of Caernarvon, G.M., viz. : — “ A scheme was proposed for the placing out Masons’ sons Apprentices, but after long debate the proposal was rejected, as a scheme too extensive for the fund of charity.” The probability is that the ques- tion would, ere the lapse of any lengthened period, have again occupied the attention of Grand Lodge, but in this case, as in the cases of other societies established for the highest and noblest purposes, differing views and counsels ere long produced dissensions which, commencing in 1740, resulted in a separation. The two bodies were known by the titles 890 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. respectively of “ Ancient” and “Modern,” * * * § and continued to exercise a divided jurisdiction for upwards of half a century. Good, however, fre- quently comes out of evil, and though there can be no doubt that heart- burnings and jealousies prevented that attention to the great principles upon which the Order is founded, which happily has since been so exten- sively bestowed, the movements in question 44 excited the attention of the Fraternity, and also of the public. Lukewarm Brethren became par- tisans on either side, and Freemasonry reaped the benefit of these mis- understandings by an increase both in numbers and influence. Thus the ranks of both 4 Ancient ’ and 4 Modern ’ were increased, and the funds of benevolence for the widow and orphan augmented from new and unex- pected sources ; a result which cemented the popularity of the Order. Its beauties and excellencies were placed in a clearer and more prominent point of view, and the public became convinced that though the two hostile parties may differ on some unimportant points of discipline, both were pursuing the same laudable course, — the investigation of science, and the benefit of mankind.” f As a practical illustration of the latter object, the “Modern” Brethren — i.e., those who adhered to the Constitution of 1717 — established in 1788 the 44 Cumberland Freemasons’ School,” X now known as the “ Boyal Masonic Institution for Girls.” § The history of that institution, so far as the present purpose is concerned, requires no further notice, save a record of its continued and increasing prosperity, on which every Mason has reason to congratulate himself. In 1798, the members of the 44 Ancient” Fraternity , not to be behindhand with their rivals, established 44 The Masonic Institution for Clothing and Educating the Sons of Deceased and Indigent Ancient Freemasons,” || with His Grace the Duke of Atholl, Grand Master of the 44 Ancient” Grand Lodge, as Patron ; the origin of which is thus stated : — 44 July -3rd, 1798. A meeting took place for the purpose of establishing a Masonic Charity for educating and clothing the sons of indigent Freemasons. A subscription was opened to carry this object into execution, and 6 chil- dren were immediately put upon the establishment. Since that period the charity has been gradually approaching to its present flourishing state Aided by the very liberal contributions of the Masonic Craft in all parts of the world, of the Grand Lodge in particular, the Right Wor- shipful the Grand Master. His Grace the Duke of Atholl, the several Grand Officers individually, as well as of many others not of the Fra- ternity, but who have felt proud to assist so laudable an institution, its funds have generally increased, and the establishment has been extended. * These titles of “Ancient” and “ Modern ” must not be taken as indicative of comparative date of origin. The seceding body adopted the title of “Ancient,” alleging that the body from which they seceded had departed from the old laws and landmarks and had introduced “ Modern ” innovations into the old working rites and ceremonies, the observance and practice of which they, the “Ancients,” were determined to maintain and preserve. The facts stated thus simply and concisely, are sufficient for this sketch, — all allusion to the controverted question as between the rival Grand Lodges in London is studiously avoided, t Oliver, “ Origin of the English Royal Arch,” ed. 1867, p. 66. + In the original prospectus described as “ a seminary for the maintenance of 15 or more girls, the daughters of indigent Freemasons; ” with H.R.H. the Duchess of Cumberland as “ Patroness.” § Previously known as “ The Royal Freemasons’ School for Female Children.” II In 1858 the title was altered to “ The Royal Masonic Institution for the Sons of Decayed and Deceased Freemasons.” In October 1868, to “The Royal Masonic Institution for Boys.” LONDON, N. 891 The number of children, who partake of the benefits of this charity, which was originally only 6, has been gradually enlarged ; and at the cele- bration of the jubilee, when all ranks of society joined in joyful com- memoration of our gracious Sovereign’s long and happy reign, the esta- blishment was increased to 50, that being the number of years during which his Majesty had then held the dominion of these realms. The children admitted on this charity are clothed, and put out to school, in the neighbourhood of their residences, at the expense of the institution, the funds not being yet extensive enough for the erection of a school - house; which object, however, by the aid of future voluntary contri- butions, the Directors of the establishment hope hereafter to accomplish. The more especially as, at the present period, all classes of subjects are striving who shall be foremost in giving education to the poor of all denominations. The impulse of charity is universal ; when, therefore, every other class of the community is distributing with a liberal hand enlightenment and education to the poor, the principles of Masonry demand that Freemasons should not neglect theirs.” In the year 1813, all distinction between “ Ancient” and “ Modern” was swept away, and from that period English Masonry has flourished under one jurisdiction, “The United Grand Lodge of England;” the only rivalry now existing amongst the Brethren being that of doing good, and particularly in using every exertion to render the Masonic educational institutions the boast and pride of the Order, and the admiration of the outer world. The changes that have successively taken place in this institution will be to some extent gathered from the following slight sketch. Every child applying for admission, must (if resident within the cities or suburbs of London or Westminster) personally attend the Committee, and produce a certificate from the Master and Wardens of the Lodge to which his father shall or did belong, certifying that he is or has been a member thereof, the Grand Secretary’s Certificate of his being duly registered for 3 years on the Grand Lodge books, together with certificates of his parents’ marriage and his own baptism. Where the candidate happens to be fatherless, the matter is left to the discretion of the Com- mittee. A general quarterly meeting of the Governors and Subscribers is held at the Virginia Coffee House, Cornhill, the first Friday in January, April, July, and October, at 6 o’clock in the evening, to receive the reports of the Committee, and to transact such other business as may come before them. The number of pupils provided for in the year — 1877 — reached 185. The following statement will show the growth of the institution; — 1798* (year of foundation) 6; 1810* (jubilee year, reign of George III.), 50; 1857f (opening of first building pur- chased at Wood Green). 70 ; 1862, 72 ; 1865 (opening of new building), 80; 1866, 100; 1869, 110; 1872 (April), 112; 1872 (October), 115; 1873,125; 1874 (January), 139 ; 1874 (August), 153 ; 1876 (April), 158; 1877, 166; 1878, 191. There are, in addition to the number 191; * In these years, and until 1856, the pupils were clothed, hut educated at schools in various districts. t In this year 25 boys were clothed and maintained and educated in the newly purchased building, the remainder being provided for as before. In 1859, 68 boys were admitted, 2 preferring to receive the advantages of the institution under its original constitution. Since 1862, all who have been elected, with an occasional ex- ception, have received the full benefits of education, clothing, land maintenance in the establishment. 892 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. pupils admitted by purchase, 14 ; pupils admitted by perpetual pre- sentations, 4 ; pupils admitted by life presentation, 2. Total number after election, April, 1878, 211. The total number of boys who have received the benefits of the institution since its foundation — includ- ing those last elected — is 1,380. The large expenditure incurred in the erection substantially and satisfactorily of the new buildings for an in- creased number of pupils and resident Masters, and to meet the educa- tional requirements of the day, necessitated recourse to a loan, and 10,000Z. was borrowed on mortgage in 1867. The success attending the special efforts of Brethren in West Yorkshire, East Lancashire, and other provinces in connection with the anniversary festival in March 1869, and of the festival in 1870, under the Presidency of H.R.H. the Prince of Wales, K.G., M.W.P.G.M.,. enabled the Committee to pay off the mort- gage debt, though in effecting this desirable object the liability of a heavy balance on current account with the bankers was incurred, the interest on which continued to press heavily on the resources of the insti- tution until the spring of 1873, when it was entirely removed.

District.. Nottingham, University College. The circumstances under which this college has been built is eloquently explained by His Royal Highness the Duke of Albany, who opened the college in 1883, and the educational machinery of Nottingham may now be said to be complete. For the last seven or eight years lecturers from Cambridge have had crowded audiences at Nottingham, Government science classes have also been carried on there with much success, and the town has for a considerable time possessed a free library and a natural history museum. The elements of a prosperous college already existed, and were much valued by the towns- people, it remained only to consolidate them, and to increase the utility of each part by giving them all a home under one roof. The munificent anonymous donation of 10,000Z. was the first incentive to the creation of this noble institution, which provides a wide range of subjects in all branches of education, the fees for students being so moderate as to meet the educational wants of all classes. At the opening ceremony His Royal Highness delivered the following brief address: he said, “Whether we consider the mariner in which this noble building has been founded, or the various objects which it is intended to advance, I think we have reason for very deep satisfaction, very confident hope. First in the work of founding it, came the anonymous donor with 10.000Z. I do not know 964 OUR SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. who he may be, but I envy his feelings if he is here to-day to see on what good ground his seed was sown. Then came the helpful energy thrown into the scheme by the University of Cambridge, and especially by a member of that University whose name is well known to all who are interested in the higher education of the country — Professor Stuart. And lastly — and this is the most important fact of all — your wealthy town has herself taken the matter up, and resolved to complete and maintain the great institution in a manner worthy of her wealth and public spirit. I had hardly realized till this morning how many objects your college is meant to serve, and how well it has been fitted for all of them. I admired the free library — an excellent example to towns which have not as yet provided their citizens with that great advantage. I admired, too, the spacious rooms in which you have housed your museum of natural history. This was well worth doing, for the value of a museum depends largely on the way in which the collection is shown. But your great building is above all things a college, a centre for the higher education of the men and women of Nottingham. You will not, I hope, be tempted to let the teaching which you give become too exclusively technical. You will remember how many of your students will need from you not so much that you should help them in their daily work, as that you should teach them to rise above it, that you should open to them wider vistas and make them capable of new joys. But technical teaching is urgently needed too, ahd I trust that the teaching given in your college will do as much for the other industries of Nottingham as your art school has already done for your designs in lace. And there is another advantage in thorough technical training which should never be overlooked. To learn anything thoroughly teaches us to respect what we learn ; it teaches us to delight in our task for its own sake and not for the sake of pay or reward. And the happiness of our lives depends much less on the actual value of the work which we do than on the spirit in which we do it. If a man tries to do the very simplest and humblest work as well as he possibly can, it will be interesting to him, and he will be proud of it. But if he is only thinking of what he can get by his work, then even the highest work will soon become a weariness to him. I trust that your college will send forth many men so trained to do good and honest work that to do work which is bad or dishonest shall be simply impossible to them. Men like these may be proud of their trade, proud of their town ; and I do not believe that we become better citizens of the world by . being indifferent to the instincts and the honour of our town or of our own nation. I believe that the narrower patriotism is often the best way of leading us to the broader, and that the better citizen a man is of Notting- ham the better citizen will he be of England, and that the truest sons of England will make the best citizens of the world. Then it is, when a man has lived for others, has worked for public ends, that the good which he has done is not ‘interred with his bones.’ No ; it lives after him, so that, in the words which form the proud motto of your ancient corporation, ‘ Viret post funera virtus Nottingham, Forest Hill School, Forest Road.

Reconstituted by the Endowed Schools Commissioners 1881. Endowment, 352Z. This school was selected by the Public School Commissioners as the chief first- grade school of north-east Wales. New buildings are much needed, and it is hoped that the Government will make a grant for this purpose in connection with their scheme for the advancement of education in Wales. For the purposes of study the school is divided into two divisions, Classical and Modern. The subjects taught on the Classical side are Holy Scriptures, Latin, Greek, Mathematics, French, English Composition, Literature, and History, Science, Ancient History, and Geography. The Modern department, while including most of the above-mentioned subjects in the course of study, assigns greater weight to Mathematics, Modern Languages, Drawing, and English subjects, with a view to the preparation of boys for Engineering and Mercantile pursuits. The Junior School is kept, as far as possible, distinct from the other departments, and will receive fuller development and organization as the numbers increase. This school has in time past ranked amongst the best in Wales, and there is no reason why, under the new scheme just brought into operation, it should not regain its prestige. The school is examined in July by the Oxford aiid Cambridge Board of Examiners. Head Master, Rev. W. P. Whittington, M.A., and 3 assistant Masters. Ryde. See Isle of Wight.

Jackson, M.A., D.C.L., late Scholar and First Mathematical Prizeman of Queen’s College, Cambridge. Sheffield, Firth College. This college was founded for the benefit of senior students, both boys and girls. It was erected and fitted up by the late Mr. Mark Firth, at a cost of 20,000/., and it was opened by His Royal Highness the Duke of Albany on the 27th October, 1879. Mr. Firth was a believer in the importance of extending higher education, and he took great interest in the University Extension scheme, and, in order to give it a local home, not only built this college, but endowed it at a further cost of 5,000/., and gave a chair of Chemistry worth 150/. a year. The endowment fund now amounts to 20,000/., and a great educa- tional work is already being carried on at the institution, the objects and aims being almost identical with the Queen’s Colleges in Ireland. It is one of many Colleges founded in recent years for the promotion of higher education in the great provincial towns of England. Such institutions are likely in the future to play no unimportant part in the education of this country. They have a three-fold function to perform, and they supply (1) University teaching, (2) Technical instruction, adapted to the needs of their districts, and (3) Popular lectures of interest to all sections of the community. 1. University Teaching. — A University, if complete, should teach, it should examine, granting its degrees and diplomas to successful candidates, and encourage original investigation in all branches of knowledge. Firth College restricts itself to the first and last of the above divisions of the work of a University. Fortunately there is a Uni- versity of modern growth, which has assigned to it the second only. The University of London is purely an examining body, and justly enjoys a high reputation for the efficient manner in which its examinations are conducted. Firth College confers the advantages of a University train- ing on many who could not otherwise enjoy them. From pecuniary or other reasons it is often difficult for young men, and still more difficult for young women, to be away from home during the years of University life ; and a University career would be impossible to many for whom a University at their doors, so to speak, makes it possible. 2. Technical Education. — The advantages of technical education cannot be over- estimated, and it is a very important part of the work of this College. A scientific knowledge of the processes used in the various manufactures will stimulate its possessor to invention and original effort. The rapid advance in the science of electricity is due to a very happy union of OUR ENDOWED AND PRIVATE SCHOOLS. IOO9 theoretic and practical knowledge in those who deal with it. Such an advance may be safely predicted in the manufactures of this town, if the light of science be thrown upon them by the manufacturers themselves. A course of instruction of this nature is adapted to the special needs of the town and district. 3. Popular Work. — This is not for regular stu- dents, but for those who cannot on account of other business afford the time for a University training or systematic technical education. Its object is to arouse and maintain the interest of the community at large in literary and scientific subjects. The Session commences in October. Michaelmas term begins about October 5th and ends about December 20th ; Lent term begins January 17th, and ends about March 27th; May term begins about April 11th, and ends about June 19th. The Evening Session is divided into 2 terms of 10 weeks each. Michaelmas term begins about October 10th, and ends about December 16th ; Lent term begins about January 17th, and ends about March 27th. Persons seeking admission to the College should be not less than 17 years of age. If under that age they will be required to pass an Entrance Examination in English, Elementary Mathematics, and Elementary Latin, to be held at the College, on the Wednesday and Thursday before the commencement of the session, from 10 to 1. If, however, they have passed the Cambridge or Oxford Senior Local or some corresponding examination they will be excused the Entrance Examination. Those who gain 3 Certificates (in the same year or different years) will be entitled to a certificate of honour. Certifi- cates will not, however, be counted separately unless gained in different subjects, or in different branches of the same subject. Very exceptional merit in the highest branch of any subject will also entitle to a certificate of honour, even though 3 ordinary certificates have not been previously gained. Classes will be formed, if desired, for students who wish to be prepared for some examination the subjects of which are not included in the College courses. For such classes a special fee will be charged. Application to be made, in the first instance, to the Principal. Senior Students of Schools can attend these classes or the regular classes, under conditions which can be learnt by inquiry, but the sanction of the Head Master or Mistress of the School in question will be in all cases necessary. Firth Exhibitions. — (1) Two Entrance Exhibi- tions, each of 15 1. for 1 year, are annually awarded upon examina- tion, — 1 in Classics and Mathematics ; 1 in Mathematics and Physical Science. (2) Two Exhibitions, each of 15 1. for 1 year, are awarded annually to those students of the College who shall be recommended to the Council as having distinguished themselves most at the Annual June Examination. The Sessional fees for each course range from 2 to 4 guineas. The Council consists of Trustees and representatives elected by the Town Council, the Cutlers’ Company, and the Universities of Oxford, Cambridge, and London.

CHAS. PARKHURST BAXTER, M.A., For many years Chaplain to the Right Hon. the Earl of Roden, the late Incumbent of Bryansford, successor to the Rev. A. Chichester Burnard, Graduate of Brasenose College, Oxford, and Rector of Berchacket, Dorset, receives a limited number of pupils, from the ages of 15 to 19, to prepare for the Church, Civil Service, Cooper’s Hill, Woolwich, Sandhurst, the University Examinations, and the Professions. Mr. Baxter is assisted by W. E. Wright, Esq., M.A., T.C.D., Highest Honours in Mathematics and Literature, Prizeman and Moderator ; by C. Archer, Esq., B.A., Oriel, Oxford, late Classical Scholar, 1st Class Classical Honours; H. Wuenschr, Esq., B.A., Oxford; and Foreign Professors of French and German. There are also Masters for Chemistry and Geometrical Drawing, who are accustomed to all our competitive examination work. No expense is spared to keep a thoroughly efficient staff of Masters, and to give every pupil individual attention during the hours of study. Upton House is a large and magnificent mansion fitted with every convenience, lofty rooms, in a very healthy part of Dorset, situated close to the sea, and surrounded by splendid grounds ; beautiful neighbourhood with a charming climate, and particularly suited to delicate boys. It is four hours distant from London, main line, with Station close to the Lodge gates. Bournemouth is within six miles, and Poole two miles. Mr. Baxter devotes his whole time to his pupils, who, therefore, have great individual attention. A large comfortable common room for reading and writing, in which a good library is provided. Mrs. Baxter has the sole management of the household arrangements. Each pupil has a room, except in the case of brothers, who sleep in the same room, and are provided with separate beds, etc. Every home comfort, and a most liberal table is supplied. Steady work is insisted on, but, during the hours of recreation, plenty of healthy outdoor amusements are provided, Cricket, Lawn Tennis, Football, Boating, and Fishing. Twelve hundred acres of Shooting surround the House, so that, if parents desire it, pupils can join in that sport occasionally. Pupils are allowed to bring horses for their own use (a charge of 25 s. per week for keep and attendance is made). The success in passing pupils for the different examinations during the past year has been most satisfactory. Wednesdays and Saturdays are half-holidays. Terms for Residence, Board, and Tuition, 150 to 200 guineas, according to the subjects selected. Brothers are received at a slightly reduced rate. Payments to be made in advance. The year is divided into three terms, of about three months each, as follow : — Spring Term — January 22nd to April 9th. Summer Term — April 29th to July 30th. Autumn Term — September 23rd to December 22nd. REFERENCES KINDLY PERMITTED TO- The Right Hon. the Earl of Roden, 27, Hill Street, W. The Right Hon. Viscount Sudley, 16, Hertford Street, Mayfair, W.

The Head Master alone is responsible for the discipline and general management of the School, and for the general management of the Boarding Houses. II. There are two departments in the School, called respectively the Classical and Modern Depart ments. III. In the Classical Department, the course of instruction has special reference to the^Universities, Woolwich, and Indian Civil Examinations, &c., &c., and embraces the study of English Liter- ature in addition to the usual curriculum of Public School education. 1Y. In the Modern Department, which no boy should enter without a clear understanding between the Parent and the House Master, Greek is discontinued ; the course embraces the following subjects : — Latin, Mathematics, English Grammar, Literature and Composition, Modern History, Political and Physical Geography, Precis-writing, and is expressly organised with a view to the Army entrance and Home Civil Service Examination. V. Mathematics and Modern Languages enter into the course of both Departments, French being considered a necessary part of the course, [and German voluntray, though without extra charge. VI. Chemistry is taught to all boys on the Modern side and to the Middle School on the Classical side. A charge of 10s. per Term is made. Vll. In connection wiuh both Departments there is a Woolwich Class, receiving special instruction in Mathematics and Natural Science, with a view to the Competitive Examination. VIII. The JuniorlSchool is preparatory to either department, and is intended for the youngest pupils, from ten years of age and upwards. The course includes Reading, Writing, Spelling, Arith- metic, and elementary teaching of all kinds.

Subjects of Study : Greek, Latin, Mathematics, Arithmetic, Divinity, French, German, English History, and Literature, Physical Science, Drawing. — 2. The Modern Branch prepares for Mercantile Life, the Home Civil Service, and similar Examinations. Subjects : Latin, French, German, Divinity, English, History, Geography, Precis Writing, and Dictation, Arithmetic, Mathematics, Physical Science, Drawing. — 5. The Junior Branch includes the two Lower Forms, and the course of instruction provides a sound elementary knowledge of Scripture, History, Latin, Arithmetic, French, and the rudiments of Greek, special attention being given to Writing, Dictation, Geography, and English Reading. Special arrangements are made by which boys reading for the Indian Civil Service, and the more difficult Examinations, can be as fully prepared as by any other private tuition. Throughout the School Modern Languages receive more than the usual amount of attention and time. Physical Science forms part of the regular work in all Forms except in the Two Highest (where it is optional) and the Junior School.

There is also a Modern Department, in which boys are fitted for Mercantile Pursuits, attention being chiefly bestowed on the study of Modern Languages, Chemistry, Book-keeping, and the usual subjects of an English Education. The Bible forms part of the regular instruction throughout the School. The boys attend service regularly in the College Chapel. The Buildings are large and convenient, situated in a rural and very healthy district, and have excellent Playgrounds attached to them. There is an Infirmary at some distance from the School Buildings. The Senior Boys have the privilege of Private Studies. Scholarships, varying in number and value, are annually awarded to boys resident in the College. On the entrance of a boy over twelve years of age a character is required from his former Master or Tutor. The year is divided into Three Terms, commencing on or about January 30th, April 25th, and September 12th.

This School was established in 1866 by the present Head, The premises have been from time to time so extended and improved that they now form one of the most complete and attractive private schools in England. The course of study corresponds with that of the Public Schools ; and most of the boys pro- ceed, when they are about fourteen, to one or other of those Schools. During the past seven- teen years boys have gone from the Abbey School to Eton, Winchester, Harrow, Charter- house, Rugby, Marlborough, Westminster, St. Paul’s, Merchant Taylors’, Cheltenham, Clifton, Haileybury, Repton, Uppingham, Sherbourne, Tunbridge, the Oxford Military College, etc. Scholarships have also been gained at Charterhouse, Westminster, Marlborough, Wellington, Fettes College (Edinburgh), and elsewhere. The great majority entered on the Classical side of the above Schools; but some, whose parents preferred Herman to G-reek, were prepared for the Modern side. A few boys also, for whom it was important that they should obtain a good practical knowledge of French and Herman, have been sent abroad when sufficiently advanced in other subjects. The classes being small — not more than half the size usual in Public Schools — it is possible to give individual attention to every one. There is always a Master in each Schoolroom during preparation time, to keep order, give necessary assistance, and see that the pre- scribed work is honestly done. The interest of the boy's is kept up by changing from one Master to another for the different subjects. 'fhe morning work is broken into two parts by an interval of half an hour for rest and refreshment. The House stands in about nine acres of ground. The soil is gravel. The buildings were specially designed for a School. Each boy has a small bedroom or cubicle to himself, which no other boy is allowed, under any circumstances, to enter. There are in all about 60 cubicles, into some of which two beds might be put if it were wished that brothers should be together. The Matron sleeps near the younger boys ; the Senior Master’s room is amongst the cubicles of the older boys. The whole building is warmed by hot water. In addition to a good Cricket-field, with pavilion, there is a gravel Playground close to the house, a large Play-room, a Hymnasium, two Fives Courts, a Carpenter’s Shop, and a Swimming Bath. Boys who are fond of gardening can have a small piece of ground assigned to them for cultivation. Two rooms almost entirely isolated from the rest of the house are set apart for the use of boys who may happen at any time to be feeling poorly and unable to go on with their work. But all cases of infectious illness are immediately sent to the Infirmary, a separate building at some distance from the School. Printed inventory forms, with suggestions as to outfit, may be had on application. The Terms for Board and Tuition (including School Books and Washing) are One Hundred Guineas a y^ar ; but a reduction of Ten Guineas each is made for boys under ten, and for brothers (above ten) in the School at the same time. A further payment of One Guinea a school-time covers the expense of Seat in Church, and mainten mce of Infirmary, Cricket- field, and School Library. There are no other necessary expenses. A school-time’s notice is required before the removal of a pupil. The fees for the optional subjects are, for each school-time : — Pianoforte, with use of instrument for daily practice, Three Guineas ; Drawing, Two Guineas ; Carpentering, with access to workshop three days a week, One Guinea. There are holidays three times a year, coinciding generally with those of the Public Schools ; three weeks in the Spring, seven weeks in the Summer, and five weeks in the Winter. A Prospectus, containing View of the School, List of Referees, and Extracts from Letters of Parents, Head Masters of Public Schools, and Old Pupils, will be sent on application. Beckenham is twelve miles from Hyde Park Corner, and can be reached in half an hour from the Victoria, Holborn Viaduct, and Ludgate Hill Stations on the London, Chatham, and Dover Line ; or from Charing Cross, Cannon Street, and London Bridge on the South- Eastern. Boys can be met, if necessary, at any of the London Stations at the beginning of a school- time, and seen off again at the close of it. The House is about five minutes’ walk from Beckenham (Junction) Station. Eev. T. LLOYD PHILLIPS, M A., Principal. THE HIGH SCHOOL, MARGATE. rimipl : G. WHARTON ROBINSON, m.a. oxok. Plan of Education. — A good, sound, classical, mathematical, or commercial education is afforded in this School, and it is the aim of the Principal to train each boy with a special view to the career for which he is intended. In order to test his progress, each boy is periodically sent in for some public examination — the senior boys for the London Matriculation and the Oxford and Cambridge Locals, others for the College of Preceptors, and the juniors for the examination established by the Association of Principals of Private Schools. In the general education are included the following subjects : — English in all its branches, French, German, Latin, Greek, Mathematics, Science, and Drawing. Classes are held for Book-keeping and Shorthand, to both of which subjects special care is given. A great number of the boys learn Music , both vocal and instrumental ; time for lessons and practice is taken out of the school hours in such a way as to prevent the pupils missing too much of their other work. Those boys who can sing are trained in concerted and in Church music ; a certain number of them form the choir in the Chapel-of-Ease to the Parish Church. Penny Readings and other Entertainments are given from time to time by members of the High School, and any boy who can play, or sing, or recite, is encouraged to do so*. The Principal has made it his aim to establish a sense of honour and conscientiousness in the School. He makes each boy feel that he is trusted, and responsible in his degree for keeping up the honour and credit of the School ; a pleasant and proper feeling is thus established between masters and boys, and an “ esprit de corps ” is engendered, which is essential to the well-being of a large school. A few of the elder boys are chosen as Monitors , and greater privileges are accorded to them ; the power of punishment is not left in their hands, but they overlook the junior boys, and report any misconduct to the masters. A monthly holiday is awarded to those boys who earn it by their good conduct. Each boy is encouraged to take part in the games of the School — Cricket, Football, Fives, Lawn Tennis, etc. A Gymnasium Class is formed every term for those boys who desire it. At the end of every Summer Term a day is devoted to Athletic Sports , which the parents and friends are invited to witness. Member of the Council of the College of Preceptors.

There is a covered Play- Room for wet weather ; a Carpenter’s Shop and small Chemical Laboratory ; a Library containing nearly 3000 volumes, to which the pupils have daily access ; and a Reading Club managed by a Committee of Boys and Masters. The course of Education depends greatly in each case on the line of life for which the pupil is intended ; and boys preparing for the Universities or any special examinations, as Woolwich, Cooper’s Hill, Naval, Legal, and Medical “Preliminaries,” or for the requirements of commercial life,' meet with special individual attention ; younger boys intended for the Public Schools are carefully “grounded” with that object Within the last few years, Pupils proceeding direct from the School have gained the following honours : — a Wranglership and open Scholarship at Cambridge ; at Oxford — two first Classes in “ Finals,” a first and second in Moderations, a proxime accessit to the University Junior Mathematical Scholarship, together with two open Scholarships at University College, a high place for Woolwich, also two Scholarships at Marlborough ; while all who have gone to Public Schools have taken extremely good places. Terms : — Boarders (from 9 years of age) £60 to ^100 per annum, according to age. From time to time the Head Master has at his disposal (by competition or otherwise) a few Entrance Exhibitions.

Linton House is a High Class Private School for sons of gentlemen. The course of instruction includes English in all its branches, Latin, Greek, French, German, Writing, Arithmetic, Algebra, Geometry, and Natural Science. The first and constant aim of the School is to give the pupils a thorough grounding in. the elementary parts of each subject, as this alone ensures regular and rapid advancement in the higher stages of education. The School consists of two Departments : — I. The Preparatory Department — for boys from six to ten years of age. This section is conducted on the model of the Preparatory Schools in Edinburgh, which have done so much for elementary education in Scotland. II. The Senior Department — for boys above ten years of age. In this section pupils are prepared for the Public Schools and the Universities, or for Commercial life. The main features of the School are as follows : — Size Of Classes. — The number of pupils in each class is strictly limited. Thus each boy daily receives particular attention, while the classes are large enough to secure that wholesome emula- tion for want of which'private tuition so often fails. Preparation of Lessons.— Part of each day is occupied in the preparation of next day’s lessons under a Master, since it is believed that genuine progress can be made only when pupils are systematically taught how to leant. The amount of home-work is thus lessened, what is too often an irksome task to boys becomes a real pleasure, and parents are saved much trouble, or the extra expense of providing a private tutor. Modern Languages. — Much time is devoted to the study of Modern Languages. Examinations.— Examinations are held at regular intervals, and these are conducted once a year by indeper.dent Examiners. Physical Exercise.— The pupils, accompanied by a Master, may attend Captain Chiosso’s Gymnasium for Drill and Gymnastics, or may take lessons in Swimming at the Baths, Queen’s Road, Bayswater. Moral Training. — In the routine of every class, Bible lessons occupy an important place, and the moral training of the pupils receives constant and unwearying attention from the Principal, whose aim is that the boys under his care shall acquire, not sound scholarship only, but also a sterling character and a gentlemanly bearing. The Drawing Class is under the supervision of Mr. Hardie’s brother-in-law, John Pettie, Esq., R.A. Terms. — Under Ten years of age — Yearly Boarders, 80 guineas per annum ; Weekly Boarders, 70 gs. per ann.; Day Boarders, 40 gs. per ann. ; Day Pupils, 25 gs. per ann. Above Ten years of age — Yearly Boarders, go gs. per ann. ; Weekly Boarders, 80 gs. per ann.; Day Boarders, 45 gs. per ann. ; Day Pupils, 30 gs. per ann. Extras. — Music, gs. or 4 gs. per term.

Day Pupils or Day Boarders may remain for tea and evening preparation at a further charge of 3 gs. per term. School Hours.-- 9 a.m. to 12.30 p.m. ; 2.30 p.m. to 4.30 p.m. Holidays.— Saturday is a whole Holiday ; Easter, two weeks ; Summer, eight weeks ; Christmas, three weeks. Special holiday arrangements are made for pupils whose parents reside abroad. The school year is divided into three terms, the first ending about Easter, the second at the end of July, and the third at Christmas. References to several of the leading Educationists of the day.

SCHMITZ’S CLASSICAL & COMMERCIAL COLLEGE FOR YOUNG GKNTLUMNN AT HAMELN, 1 HANOVER, PRUSSIA. At this establishment, founded in 1847, a great many Pupils of different nation have been educated, some of whom are at present heads of great commercia houses, while others now occupy places of distinction in public professions. Hameln is beautifully situated on the banks of the Weser, the most picturesque river of North Germany, and surrounded by lovely ranges of well- wooded moun- tains. It can be reached in about 20 hours, leaving London at 8 p.m. via Queen- borough, Flushing, Boxtel, Wesel, Oberhausen, Hamm, Lohne. At Lohne change for Hameln. The purest German is spoken in this part of the former kingdom of Hanover, with the capital of which Hameln is connected by rail. The number of Boarders is limited from 20 to 30, and the Principal is assisted by able Professors, some of whom are resident, and the others partly occupied in the Government schools of the town. Dr. Schmitz labours conscientiously to give to the education of the pupils a decidedly Christian character, and to cultivate moral principles in exact conformity with the spirit of the Gospel. On Sundays the Protestant Pupils are accompanied to one of the Protestant churches of the town ; Catholics to their own church. THE GENERAL COURSE OF EUUCATION INCLUDES : The Latin and Greek Languages ; German, French, and English (Spanish, Italian, and Portuguese if desired), Mathematics, Commercial Arithmetic, Mer- chants’ Accounts, Book-keeping and Commercial Correspondence in German, French, and English; History and Geography; Natural Science; Writing, Drawing, Singing, Gymnastics, and Swimming. The Pupils are daily exercised in speaking the Modern Languages and writing them correctly, and, as the establishment has Resident Pupils of different nations, special facilities are afforded for learning both German and other languages. There are courses to prepare Pupils for University, Military, and other Examinations. The Terms for Instruction, Board, and Residence are : — For Pupils under 12 years of age, ^45 per annum ; from the age of 12 to 14, per annum ; from the age of 14 to 16, £60 per annum ; from the age of 16 to 18, ^75 per annum ; over 18, ^90 per annum.

SPECIALLY RECOMMENDED. AT BRUSSELS (AVENUE LOUISE). PRIVATE EDUCATION FOR A FEW YOUNG GENTLEMEN, Under the Direction of PROFESSOR V. DOUBLET DE VILLERS, OF THE UNIVERSITY OF PARIS. The number of Pupils is select and extremely limited. Special Classes of French and German for Candidates and Young Gentlemen who go into business. As M. V. Doublet de Villers teaches French himself j and as that language is the only one spoken in the house , the Pupils will soon acquire an excellent pronunciation. Parents sending their sons to this establishment may rely upon their receiving a first-class finish- ing education, together with the advantages of a well-regulated and comfortable home. M. DOUBLET DE VILLERS has had twenty years’ experience ; and for a period of fifteen years he has successfully conducted this establishment, and is well and favourably known to many English families of repute, whose sons have been under his care. He is assisted by the most dis- tinguished masters, and with their aid he prepares Young Gentlemen for Commercial pursuits, and for entrance into the Army and Navy, Public Schools, the Civil Service, Banking Establishments, etc. He also ensures the most rapid progress in Modern and Ancient Languages. The success which the English and French Pupils have achieved at the above-mentioned examinations is a sufficient proof of the thoroughness of the system of instruction adopted. Youths whose education has been neglected on account of ill-health , etc., are carefully and expeditiously advanced. The progress of the Pupils is tested by frequent examinations, the result of which is made known to the Parents by monthly reports. The classes are held in a well-aired room overlooking the surrounding country. The number of Pupils is select and extremely limited (the maximum number being ten Pupils). The domestic arrangements are under the care of Madame Doublet de Villers, and the object kept in view is to add to the necessary duties of the School the cheerfulness and refinement of home life. It is so arranged that the Young Gentlemen can observe all their religious duties exactly as if in their own homes. The meals are taken with the family, and the Young Pupils meet with special care from Mrs Doublet de Villers. Terms. 100 Guineas per annum, payable in advance : 25 Guineas per quarter from the day of entry. No Extras. An mportant reduction in the price is made for two Brothers or younger Pupils. No Vacations. Three months' notice , or a quarter's payment is exacted. N. B.— The best references can be obtained both in England and Belgium, from gentlemen whose sons, now occupying important positions, have been educated by M. Doublet de Villers.

S. de Carteret-Bisson, Author of “ Our Schools and Colleges,” Beaconsfield Club, Marlborough Gate, London, S.W. APPENDIX. 1235 LAUSANNE, SWITZERLAND. INSTITUTION. OF DR. GOERGENS. Dr. GOERGENS receives into his establishment but a limited number of pupils between the ages of eight and seventeen, which allows the director to consider them as members of his family, and to treat them as his own children. The end pursued by the Principal is to promote with am equal solicitude the religious, moral,, intellectual, and physical development of the pupils committed to his care. If particularly desired, preparation is given for the Civil Service, Woolwich, Sandhurst, the Army, the Navy, etc., and other English Examinations. The Principal is assisted in the accomplishment of his task by distinguished masters^ natives of France, French Switzerland, Germany, and England. The French, German, and English languages are habitually spoken by the pupils. In this respect Dr. Goergens offers them a great advantage, living, as they do, in constant intercourse with the Director, his family, and the German and French pupils resident in this establishment. The lessons are given in French ; but in the higher, classes German and English are given in those respective languages. The Principal ardently desires to imbue his pupils with a simple, sincere, evangelical, and religious spirit, and to make it the basis of the education which they receive. He seeks to develop in them the serious qualities of judgment by the habit of reflection, and to inspire them with a taste for study. The discipline is strict, but paternal, the surveillance constant, but not irksome. The manner of life is very regular ; it abounds in comforts, and, without excluding variety, it is always quiet and sober. The residence. is spacious, healthy, and agreeable. The terms are 2,200 Francs per annum, including the washing and mending of linen, and the repairing and cleaning of clothes. The fee for board and education is payable in advance, either half yearly or. quarterly, according to the wish of the parents. Pupils are expected to bring 6 table-napkins, 6 towels, 6 sheets, 3 pillow-cases, and a silver fork and spoon. If not, they have to pay 50 Francs.. Lessons in Italian, in Spanish, as also in the more elegant accomplishments- (Drawing, Music, Dancing, Riding, etc.), are objects^ of separate consideration. Linear and. Artistic Drawing are obligatory, and the charge is 30 Francs for three, months. No extra, charge is made for pupils spending the vacations at the school. The-* pupils usually spend part of them in excursions, accompanied by the Principal and the teachers. Dp.. GOERGENS,.. LAUSANNE. 1236 APPENDIX. EDUCATION IN JERSEY. ST. JAMES’S <|crll ^rjwcrl mh §plitar|r gdakmjr, HIGHLANDS, JERSEY. ESTABLISHED 1832. (LATE PRINCIPAL, DR. GUY THOMPSON.) Principal, The Rev. JAMES CARDWELL , 5 M. A., Late Mathematical Scholar and Prizeman of Gonville and Caius College , Cambridge , 2 6th Wrangler , 1870 ; for eight years Head Master of the Sheffield Collegiate School. The object of the School is to provide a sound and liberal Education for the Sons of Gen- tlemen ; more especially to prepare them thoroughly for the various Examinations required for entrance into Her Majesty’s Services, the Universities and the Learned Professions ; also to afford a suitable course of Mercantile Studies for such as intend to enter the higher departments of Commerce. The Course of Instruction includes the usual subjects com- prised in the curriculum of a First-Grade School, viz., Divinity, Classics, Mathematics, Modern Languages, and Natural Science. While due attention is given to Divinity and Classics, special stress is laid upon the efficient teaching of Mathematics, Modern Lan- guages, and Science ; an unusual proportion of the school hours is allotted to these subjects, and every effort is made to secure proficiency in speaking and writing French and German. In the junior part of the School a thorough Instruction in Elementary Subjects is aimed at, so as to provide against failure in them at a subsequent period ; while the studies of the older Pupils receive the particular direction which each one requires. Each department is under the immediate supervision of the Principal — both Senior and Junior classes coming in turn under his instruction. Upwards of 300 Candidates have been •successfully prepared for various Competitive Examinations, many of them taking very high places, especially in the Examination for entrance to Sandhurst and Woolwich.

WELFORD and SONS desire to call attention to the exceptional advantages afforded in a supply of ABSOLUTELY FRESH MILK from their HOME FARM, situate at Willesden, Middlesex ; this can be conveyed direct to the consumer without the injurious effect of a long railway journey and its attendant delays. Such a supply is of great importance to Children where a liberal Milk diet is allowed. The GOVERNMENT INSPECTOR, in his report, says : “You have the finest herd of Cows I ever saw.” Prizes received for MILCH COWS at the Show of the Royal Agricultural Society of England, and all London Dairy Shows from 1876 to the present time. THE TIMES says : “ Messrs. Welford deserve every credit for setting an example which cannot be too widely followed.’* THE FIELD. — “Teaching in the Dairy. The students of the Institute of Agriculture were taken by Professor Tanner to the Dairies of Messrs. Welford and Sons for a practical lecture on Dairy practice.” SEVENTEEN SILVER MEDALS GAINED AT DAIRY SHOWS FOR CREAM, BUTTER, AND DAIRY APPLIANCES. ( T. WOODGER, M.R.C.V.S. \ H. PRIESTMAN, M.R.C.V.S.
