BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. 1 . SERIES II. BOSTON, MARCH, 1885. VOL. XII. Colleges, universities, and other institutions receiving this volume ofthe YEAR Boon, are respecvully requested to acknowledge the some by forwarding to its Editors ct copy QI' each new Catalogue, Annual Report, or similar publication. All correspondence with reference to admission to any College or ,School of this University should be addressed to the appropriate Dean. ON the third day of June, 1884, in accordance with the notice given in the last issue of the YEAR Boolc, the University Convocation was formally organized. At the ensuing annual meeting of the Corporation in January, it was duly admitted to participation in the government of the University, according to the provisions of the statutes. The next annual meeting of the Convocation will beheld in Jacob Sleeper Hall, on Convocation Day, Tuesday, June 2, at one o'clock in the afternoon. A few weeks ago, The Century Magazine completed the publica- tion of an interesting series of illustrated articles entitled On the Track of Ulysses. In them the author, Mr. W. J. Stillman of New York, gives the results obtained by observation and local studies in con- nection witha recent visit to some of the more important of the points on the Mediterranean coasts traditionally associated with the story of the Odyssey. His conjectural map of the hcro's voyage may be seen on page 562 lot' the volume for 188435 but he confesses, that, for his location of the all-decisive Ogygia, he has U no evidence. The source and the solu- tion of this author's perplexitles, as of the perplexlties of so many others before him, are made apparent in the paper on H Homer's Abode of the Living, in the present volume. Hitherto it has been the ,well-understood purpose and work of all classical colleges, to train up MIEN, intelligent leaders and guides and helpers of mankind, -men of suflicient breadth of thought and taste and acquisition to be capable of appreciating and helping forward all good learning and all good living. Now, however, we have among us a nascent party whose spokesmen seem intent on persuading the col- leges to subordinate the Man to his work. Apparently they are deter- mined to inaugurate a system which, in precise proportion to its success, is certain to turn out mere calculists, or chemists, or physicists, or physi- ologists,'0r psychologists, or publicists, or Germanists, or Gallicists, or Latinists, with here and there perhaps an equally specialized Hellcnist, but with never a whole rounded man among them all. And, strange to say, a chief contention appears to be that these products of a narrow and special training shall have, at the end, not a degree honestly and truthfully describing their attainments, but the one only title which the 4 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. world over means breadth and thoroughness and catholicity of scholarly training, -the degree of Bachelor of Arts. Thus far in this University, as for years in all the most reputable American colleges, thedegrce of Bachelor of Arts has signilied that its bearer had been well instructed in all essential mathematical, physical, and philosophical sciences, and also that he had acquired a sutllcient mastery of two ancient languages, Greek and Latin, and of at least two modern languages. French and German, to equip him for a. personal understanding of the civilization he inherits, and to qualify him to con- tribute ln some worthy manner to its further development and diffusion. Doubtless all this will be changed as soon as it is once completely demonstrated that mankind is only an accidentally varied and improved branch of the animal kingdom, whose antiquity has no particular signili- cance, and whose duty and destiny are questions of less importance than the problem of running a steam-engine with the least outlay of plthecoid cerebration, and with the least destruction of pithecold organisms. In response to inquiries as to the procurabllity of the papers which have appeared in the Uuivlcnsrrv Yann Book on the Cosmology of Homer and of the Ancients, it is proper to state that our supply is ex- hausted, but that The True Key can be ordered of Messrs. Ginn da Heath of this city, who publish an illustrated edition for schoolsg while the other papers, with the exception of the one printed in the present volume, can be found in the just-issued work, Paradise Found: The Cradle of the Human Race at the North Pole, London, Sampson Low 85 Co.: Boston and New York, Houghton, Milllin, dz Co. Three other related discussions may be found in the same volume,-one on Honier's Abode of the Gods, one on his Cosmical Water-system, and one on his view of the Nocturnal Movement of the Sun. It is hoped that scholars will here tind proof that the study of Greek antiquity and Greek literature has still an indispensable value in all modern humanistic edu- catlon claiming to be based upon a correct view of human nature and human history. . By a unanimous vote, at their last annual meeting, the trustees of Dickinson College, the second oldest college in Pennsylvania, opened the privileges of the institution to women upon the same terms as to men. This action is the more historic and significant from the fact that this is the last of the forty-five colleges and universities of ,the oldest nationally organized Church in the United States, to plant itself upon the plat- form of the joint education of the sexes. Since the event here noticed, the cause of dis-joint education has sutfered an even more memorable defeat in Adelbert College, Cleveland, O. CONTENTS.

Bos'r0N UNIVERSITY was chartered by the Commonwealth of Mas- sachusetts in the year of our Lord 1869. The three gentlemen named in the Charter as the original corporators were Isaac Rich, Esquire, the Honorable Lee Claflin, and the Honorable Jacob Sleeper, all of whom had held responsible positions in the government of one or more of the older New-England colleges, and the last of whom had served as a State-appointed Overseer of Harvard University for a period of twelve years. The Governor of the Commonwealth who officially approved and signed the act of incorporation was a son of the second of the original corporators. The C0rp0rati0n.- Under the provisions of the Charter, the power of receiving, holding, and a.dministering funds, establishing departments of instruction, appointing officers of instruction and gov- ernment, providing suitable buildings and appliances, conferring degrees, and, in general, the power of directing the administration, vests in the Corporation, whose legal title is H The Trustees of Boston University. The body consists of the President of the University ex-ojicio, and five classes of Trustees elected from year to year for the term of five years. The whole number must not be less than ten nor more than thirty. In the year 1883, the Corporation was granted a Charter by the Legislature of the State of New York, the first section of which is as follows : The Trustees of the Boston Univerxily, a corporation organ- ized and existing under and by virtue of the laws of the State of Massachusetts, are hereby authorized and empowered to take and hold lands in this State, by devise, or under the provisions of any will, in the same manner and under the same limitations applicable to benevolent and scientific corporations organized under the laws of this State. The University Council. -Under the provisions of the stat- ntes of organization, the President of the University, the Registrar, and the Deans of the several departments, constitute the University Council. To this body belongs, among other duties, that of secur- ing an harmonious adjustment of all inter-departmental questions of administration. 8 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. The University Senate. - The members of the University Council, together with all the regular professors in the different schools and colleges, constitute the University Senate. All promotions to degrees are in the name of this body and of the Corporation jointly. The University Convocation. - This body consists of all persons who have acquired any Degree or Diploma of Graduation in the University. Every promotion to a degree, or to the status of a graduate, is, accordingly, promotion to membership in the Convocation with defined privileges of representation in the government of the University, and with corresponding duties. The Boards of Visitors. -- Boards of Visitors are annually ap- pointed by the Trustees for the inspection of the work of the several Colleges and Schools, and for the making of reports to the Corpora- tion. The chairman of the Standing Committee of the Corporation on a College or School is in each case ex-Qpicia chairman of the Board of Visitors of said School or College, and is charged with the duty of calling the meetings, and of presenting the reports of the said Board to the Trustees of the University. The Colleges. -The Statutes of the University provide for a group of Colleges with distinct Faculties and administrations. The College of Liberal Arts and the College of Music were opened almost immediately after the University was chartered, while the place of the College of Agriculture has been supplied since January, 1875, by the Massachusetts Agricultural College. The Professional Schools. - All departments of the Univer- sity so organized as to presuppose' on the part of the student a colle- giate preparation, or its equivalent, are called Schools. The three of these which are organized and administered in the interest of persons preparing for the learned professions are called The Professional Schools. ' The School of A11 Sciences. - This department is for gradu- ate students only. Since 1875, its regular members enjoy the privi- lege of free tuition in the National University at Athens, and in the Royal University at Rome. Fundamental Principles. -The eleventh Annual Report, is- sued January, 1885, presents at some length a number of the more important of the ideas, or principles, which underlie the entire plan, and which have determined the actual organic form of the institution.

Voss und Ukert weisen die Versuche der Alien ab, dem Dichter die Kennt- niss der Kugelgestalt der Erde geben zu wollen .... Von allen Zeiten her hat man probiret, die Irifahrten des Odysseus zu erldutern und ist auf die aller- verschiedensten Wege gelcommen ....

As the heroes of the Iliad were as familiar to the Greek navigators as the saints of the Church Calendar were to the Spanish and Portuguese discoverers Qf the New World, and as they were treated by them with the same sort of respect and veneration, there can be little doubt that they left the same sort Qf memorials of them l:i.e., by naming localities and waters for theml wherever they made discoveries or piratical settlements: which memorials being after- wards found among barbarous nations by succeeding navigators, when the discoverers were forgotten and the settlers vanished, they concluded that those heroes had actually been there. And as the works of the Greek poets, by the general diffusion of the Greek language after the Macedonian conquest, became universally known and admired, those nations themselves eagerly co-operated in the deception by ingrafting the Greelc fables upon their own, and greedily catching at any links of aginity which might connect them with a people from whom all that was excellent in art, literature, and society seemed to be dertved.1 R. P. KNIGHT. THREE years ago, in these pages, a new interpretation of the cosmological ideas of Homer, and of the ancients gen- erally, was presented, and, as far as space permitted, illus- trated. Two years ago, in the paper entitled I-Iomeris Abode of the Dead, a further vindication of the new view was given in a form which seems to have carried convic- tion to all scholars thus far heard from in this country and 1 The Classical Journal, London, 1823, p. 69. 20 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. in Europe. In the present paper it is proposed to show what light and beauty the new and true conception of Homer's Earth immediately brings into the chaos of sur- mises and guess-work which envelopes and for centuries has enveloped the problem of the Odyssean voyagings. To enumerate all the conflicting opinions of the Homeric interpreters touching the direction of these voyages, and the location of the different lands visited, would require a special treatise. Even the ancient Greek writers were themselves far from agreed in respect to these questions, while modern scholars have carried their ingenious conjec- tures to what would seem to be the farthest bound of possibility. A fair idea of the' indescribable confusion which still reigns in this field of- Homeric teaching may be formed from the account given in Ukert'sA Geographic der Griechen und Romer, part first, subdivision second, pp. 310-319, to which the interested reader is referred? No one can proceed far in these discussions without dis- covering that every thing turns upon two pointsg to wit, the location of Aiaie, and the location of Ogygia. Could these once be fixed, the Homeric geographers and carto- graphers would have little trouble with the remaining details. Where, then, is Aiaie? Mr. Gladstone, in the map pre- fixed to his Juventus Mundi, places it in the farthest known, if not indeed in the unknown, East? Mr. Bun- bury on the contrary, in the somewhat later sketch-chart inserted in his History of Ancie11t Geography, locates it in the farthest West!-i Each represents the opinion of a 1 In view of these apparently insurmountable diflicultles, many have been willing to lend an ear to those all-explaining champions of the Sun- myth, who with Dr. George Karl Cornelius Gerlund assure us: Die gauze Fable des heimkehrenden Odysseus beruht auf eine Personiflcation der Sonne.

BUNBURY, History of Ancient Geography among the Greeks and Romans, London, 1879. , , I HOMEIPS ABODE OF' THE LIVING. 21 large number of interpreters, however widely these latter may dissent among themselves with respect to other ques- tions. The partisans of the eastern location are accus- tomed to appeal to the explicit declaration of the poet that at Aiaie are the abodes and dance-grounds of Aurora, there the risings of the Sun C Odyssey, xii. 3, 45: the other company declare that every indication given as to the direction of the voyagers on their way thither ne- cessitates the supposition that the general course was west, or north-west or south-west from Greece! Both classes are rightg but instead of searching out in what way they can both be right, a great number of interpreters have taken the easier method of accusing the poet of arbi- trariness, or of self-contradiction. Thus one of them says, We cannot help fancying that our poet, in the plenitude of his authority, seized upon the Argonautic cycle, and tranferred Aietes and the Aiaian isle to the West from their proper place in the Eastg and he may have retained the description of that isle, which accords perfectly with its eastern position, but which requires a sleight of in- genuity like that just noticed, to make it suit the West. Mr. Bunbury observes, Kirks was the daughter of the Sung and hence her island would naturally be asso- ciated, in the mind of the poet, with bright and sunny images, which he might well introduce in a passing notice without considering how far they were geographically appropriate. 3 912 1 To break the force of the argument from Od. xii. 3, 4, Mr. Merivale, like some of his predecessors, says, The land of sunrise is the land over which the sun first appears to him who is making his backward journey from the West, the land of sunset and of death, across the Ocean-stream to the inhabited world, as the extreme west of Cornwall is the land of sunrise to the Scilly Islanders. Unfortunately for this ingenious ex- planation, its author, in interpreting the account of the land of the Laas- trygonians, Od. x. Sl, seq., is driven by his flat-earth assumption to a doctrine of sunrise, according to which the Scilly Islands become the sunrise land to the inhabitants of West Cornwall.

Heimreich formulates this charge of absent-mindedness or forgetfulness still more definitely as follows: ff All the hanging-back and hand-wringing of the interpreters avail nothing. The abodes and dancing-places of the early- born Aurora, and the risings of the Sun, are in the Eastg and to transport them to an island in the far West, is worse than absurd. I can explain it only as a thought- lessness on the part of the poet, who had in memory similar verses taken from the poem of the Argonauts, of which he made useg and for the moment he forgot, that, in consequence of his fiction that Odysseus also was come to Aiaie, the adoption into his poem of this perhaps formelhaften Wbndung had become impracticablef' 1 One of our latest mythographers first places the elusive islet in the East, as most in accord with Homeric tradi- tionsg but at length triumphantly explains all difficulties by identifying it with the Moon, which, naturally enough, ff is now in the East, and now in the West. 2 How would the wise old poet smile at such semi- accusatory, semi-apologetic criticism! On the actual earth, the East is reached by sailing Westg and if inter- preters had only been willing to concede to the ancient sages a little of their own abounding knowledge of the natural world, they would have spared themselves many a rnortifying mistake. They should have read, in Lanier's ff Psalm of the West, of that H Big, perilous theorem, hard for king and priest, - Pursue the West but long enough, 'tis East. 5 So plain is Homer's language, that some readers still ad- dicted to the traditional view have here and there seen its force, and only by a hair's-breadth missed the true Homeric geography. Thus Mr. Gladstone, in his Juventus Mundi, before his abandonment of the flat-earth theory, 1 HEIMREICH: Die Telcmachie und zlcr jtingcre Nostos, Flensburg,1S71, p. 20. 2 Ronmrr Bnowx, Jun.: The Myth of Kirkb, London, 1893, pp. 24 and 27. 3 Poems ofSi1.lncy Lanier, New York, 1884, p. 123. HOMEIPS ABODE OF THE LIVING. 23 observed, if He seems to connect the extreme East with the farthest West,-sunset with sunrise,-as if he thought the earth's surface were wrapped Qso to speakj round a cylinder. Our if True Key to Ancient Cosmology, with its spheri- cal Homeric Earth, instantly solves these age-long con- tradictions. To recent writers, had they been attentive, V6lcker's disposition of the problem of Aiaie ought to have suggested the full-orbed truth. He found it neces- sary to assume the existence of two Aiaies,- one located in the far East, and one in the far West.2 Now, just as in the paper on f' Homer's Abode of the Dead we found that the true Homeric conception of the figure of the earth causes V6leker's two Hadean kingdoms to melt or merge at once into one, so here the same true conception of Homer's Earth merges, the two world-widely separated Aiaies into one located on the opposite side of the northern hemisphere, equidistant from the poet eastward .and west- ward. It is there that to the poet the westering sun begins to easter? Hence, though far to the West, it is at the same time far to the East,-the place of which he says, 'f There are the abodes and dance-grounds of Aurora, there the risings of the Sun. 4 How beautifully those mutually contradicting maps 771 1 P. 531. Comp. p. 325: The fact of the snn's sporting with the oxen night and morning goes far to show that Homer did not think of the Earth as a plane, but round, perhaps as upon a cylinder, and believed that the West and East were in com act. 2 To relieve the ineredibleness of his theory, he philosophically remarks. The poetic mind of the Greeks elaborated the conception of the Universe harmoniously, so that to the Sun-land in the East a similar one had to correspond in the West Ui --Hom. Gong., 5 66.

Gladstone's, and others, place the mythic isle in the farthest Eastg Bunbury's, and others, in the farthest West, Viilcker's, and others, fix it in both the farthest East and farthest West. All are thus as contradictory as is well possible, yet all are unwittingly witnesses to the exact truth. The moment we take them from the flat disk of ignorant assumption, and wrap them around the sphere of true Homeric science, that moment all become congruent and correct. All now yield a common result, and confirm in the most striking manner the location above defined. This true solution of the position of Aiaie furthermore explains all the diiiiculties which commentators have found in the strange expression of Odysseus, that at that point he knew not where was East, or where was West, where the sun rose, or where it went behind the Earth COOZ. x. 190-l92j. Of this, and the passage xii. 1-4, Mr. Bun- bury says it seems impossible to reconcile the twof' Mr. Gladstone goes still farther, and suggests that Homer himself is embarrassingly involved in his own conceptions, and, under the fogginess of this blind statement, is seek- ing to escape! In the mouth of Mr. Gladstone, the most reverent of Homeric elucidators, this language is pecul- iarly surprising. But let one once conceive of Aiaie as we have placed it, and how perfectly natural the enigmati- cal expression! To the poet, Odysseus and his comrades are homeoscian antipodesg hence the setting sun is at the same moment the rising sun, West is one with East, 1 I have already shown that this island 1AiaicJ is absolutely fixed, according to the mind of Homer, in the East, as Alolie is in the West. It cannot be in the remote North, because no fire is used. It is not very likely to lie to the south of East, because of the neighborhood of the Kim- nierian fog. This is a difficulty for Homer, since his Dawn ought to be somewhat to the south of East. He tries fit may seemb to escape, like some of his Trojan heroes, in afoyg for he declares, that, on arriving here, Odysseus could make out nothing about his position relatively to tho Dark and the Dawn, the Sunset and the Sunrise. This difficulty cannot wholly be removed. - Juventus Mundi, p. 490. HOMER'S ABODE OF THE LIVING. 25 sunset is lost in sunrise. The venerable paradox is only a new and perfect index to the exact location which scholars have so long and so vainly sought. ' Such being the position of Aiaie, the direction of Odys- seus on his voyage to Hades and back is settled beyond a doubt. In Gladstone's map, the course of this voyage is laid down as first north, then east, then a long way south, rounding in at last a little to the west, and having the landing on the nearer shore of the Ocean-strea1n.1 In Bunbury's map, on the contrary, the course is due west, and the landing on the farther shore of the Ocean. Two representations could hardly contradict each other more completely: neither is at all correct. What are the requirements of the poem? First, it must be a voyage southward 3 for Kirks states that it is to be by the blast of Boreas that they are to be borne forward.2 Locating Hades and Aiaic as we have, this is precisely the wind we need to take the ship down to and across the Ocean-river. In the second place, if one follows V6lcker's interpretation,-to which, for our part, we attach but slight importance,-after reaching the Ocean- river, the voyagers are represented as sailing up-stream for some distance before landing, and afterward returning down-stream? This part of the journey, then, on a spherically conceived Homeric Earth, would be alongthe lower shore of the Equatorial Ocean-stream, from the me- ridian of Aiaic, in the direction of the meridian of Ithaca, in' a course opposite to the apparent motion of the sun. 1 Later, ln his Primer of Homer, p. 60, Mr. Gladstone transfers the en- trance to Hades to the outer shore, the farther bank of the Ocean-stream. He thinks, however, that, in this part of his work, the poet was in a confused and bewildered state of xnindf' and that his latitudes were thrown into something like purposed confusion, p. til. 2 od.

In the third place, the point reached by the party in the realm of the dead is described by the term in-6 564119. If, now, this expression is intended to indicate a point of compass, as well as the gloominess of the place visited, it could not have been better chosen, since it describes the location precisely in accordance with all other indications, and iixes it as below the Ocean-stream, and in what was to the poet the Western Hemisphere, making the spot thus precisely ff under the dark CWestj, to use the very terms which various translators have employed in render- ing the passage! - So much for Aiaie. But our hemispherical conception of Ho1ner's Abode of Living Men equally clears up the long-standing mystery as to the location of Calypso's isle, Ogygia. On this subject, as a recent author says, ff volumes have been written. Gladstone and others place the witching isle far to the north of Greeceg Bunbury and others, far to the westg Ukert and others, far to the south-westg Volcker and others, in the highest north-westg Merivale and others, like Callimachos of old, leave it in the centre of the Mediterranean Sea, and identify it with ff Malta or its neighbor Gozo 5 and so on to the end of the list. 1 See Homer's Abode of the Dead flatest edition in Paradise Found, pp. 467-4871. A few days ago 1Feh. 11, 18853 the writer came, for the first time, upon a reference to the Odyssean Hades, which, though barely inci- dental, and apparently forming no part of a comprehensive interpretation of Homeric cosmology, curiously conforms tothe doctrine set forth in The True Key. Speaking of the religious ideas of the Greeks, the writer, Mr. R. P. Knight, remarks: The fate of the terrestrial soul, the regions to which it retired at the dissolution of the body, and the degree of sensibility which it continued to enjoy. are subjects of much obscurity. In the Odysseyit is allowed a xucre, nnlsemhlo existence in the darkness of Tas POLAR imoions, without any reward for virtue or punishment for vice. -The Classical Journal, London, 1822, vol. xxvi. p. 41.

The fact seems to be that he was misled, not only by falsehood, but also by truth. When informants, Speaking of the same region, described it as one of all-but perpetual day, and also as one of night all-but perpetual, although both of these statements were true, he had not the key to their truth, and thus could only seek refuge in vagueness from contradiction. 1 Nearly two thousand years ago, the best geographers knew as little as now what to make of Hon1er's language. Here is Pliny's attempt to wrestle with it: ff The island of Ogygia, so called by Homer, is the habitable land an that whole hemisphere which the ancients believed to be surrounded on all sides by the Ocean, for which reason it is called Navel Island, that is, the middle of the Ocean. There he places Calypso, the daughter of Atlas, who knows the foundations of the Ocean, and supports upon immense pillars the weight of Heaven and Earth. This is Nature herseUQ such as she appears in that hemisphere, and Homer gives her the name of a woman then very well known, because there are many things in nature which she keeps concealed 5 the word Kalufvrmv signifying to conceal. 2 Perhaps the latest and most convenient method of dis- posing of the whole question is that adopted by Henry 1 Juventus Mundi, p. 480. 2 Compare the following: It is hardly necessary to observe that the Homeric geography in regard to all these distant lands must he considered as altogether fabulous. We are wholly at a loss to account for the locali- ties assigned by the Greeks in later days to the scenes of the Odyssey: it is certain that nothing can less accord with the data Csuch as they areb supplied by Homer than the identifications they adopted. Edward H. Bunbury, in Sinith's Dictionary Qf Greek and Roman Geography, art. 0g,vgia Many years ago, after a personal inspection of Ithaca and Corcyra., Lencadia and Strongyle, Seylla and Charylnlis, Taphros and the Hellespont, mythical Scheric and the land of the Lotophagoi, the present writer reached the conclusion that the shores and islands of the Mediterra- nean afford no key to these immortal Homeric voyages, and that the secret of many of the traditional identliications reported by scholiasts and gcographers is substantially the one suggested in motto third to the present paper. 28 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. Hayman, according to whom the poet did not intend that we should have any idea Whatever as to the real location, and 'hence deliberately and purposely locked up his mys- tery in a manner intended to be effectual. The passage in which he presents this view is curious enough to quote: Homer does not say the 'wind and water ' as elsewhere, but the 'gods,' brought him Cn-6AaaavD thitherg i.e., the whole course is regarded as due to their interposition. By this contrivance the poet seems to intimate that no prdinary reckoning of distance or rate is applicable. He thus breaks away from the group of eastern localities which lie in connection with Aiaie,-viz., the Sirens, Thrinacie, and Scylla,-and lands us in a new region. The name, if meaning, as Mr. Paley on Eschylos CEumen. 989D thinks, a dark gulf or chasm, suits well the idea. suggested by that of Calypso, 'the Concealerg' similarly Hesiod CTheogony, 803D applies it to the water of Styx. . . . Thus, by the very names Ogygia and Calypso, the poet may mean to hint that their whereabouts is not to be retraced, and that this part of the hero's course is not to be squared with previous notes of time or place. The same idea suits the 6fL4Jl1.lx.O9 dlamifrfrvle, i.e., the centre of the sea where it rose high, as land rises highest in some point far inland, and thus of unknown remoteness. So, from Ogygia reaching Scheric in twenty days Cvi. 170, vii. 268- 297j, he is from Scheric brought back into known regions by a supernatural machinery,-the magic galleys Cviii. 558-563D which knew not human laws, and therefore baffle calculation. Thus the poet locks up his mysteryg and all attempts to open it are idle in themselves, and are a violation of his idea. 1 That there is no need for such a hewing-asunder of the Gordian knot, the briefest glance at the true I-Iomeric earth sufiices to show. Nobody can fail to find the 6,1.4w.Mq of a hemispherical shield, and nobody can have 1 IIayman's Odyssey, vol. i., Appendix D, p. xlvii. HOIllER'S ABODE OF THE LIVING. 29 any greater difficulty in finding the aaqmadg of that ter- restrial hemisphere which Homer makes his Abode of Living Men. It can be nothing else than the Pole. And as the sea was supposed to surround it Qas it doesj, and as the known countries around the Mediterranean were conceived of as little more than large islands in a sea which covered the 'greater part of the northern hemi- sphere Csee Straboj, it was the most natural thing in the world that the polar island should be called the 6,,tq5qJt5g Heade-0-179, ff the navel of the sea. 1 As if to make it im- possible to misunderstand his language, the poet calls the earth-picturing shield of Achilles not flat, but fiinvxaos, well-orbedg and by placing the Ocean-stream around its rim makes it, as on the earth of ancient East-Aryan mythology, everywhere equidistant from its 6,a4mA6g or Pole. In its application to the Pole of the heavens, the same metaphorical term has often been employed among other peoplesg2 and if, as Dr. Hayman .thinks, divine agency seems to supersede natural in its vicinity, it is 1 The term forcibly recalls the oft-recurring, not yet fully understood Avestan expression, apdm napzit, the Navel of the VVaters. Without claiming an entire correspondence in its meaning, we may yet note with interest, that, in the Middle Ages, the Parsees certainly associated this Navel of the Waters with their mythical, north-polar, world-mountain, and assigned to it somewhat of the divinity and sanctity of the latter: that Neriosengh, ln translating the Yaona into the Sanskrit, understood and ren- dered it in the same wayg and, finally, that such scholars as Spiegel and Bnrnouf have lent to the interpretation the authority of their great names, though the former, in his commentary, is inclined to change his opinion.

So the fact that Calypso is the daughter of Atlas becomes at once significant, when it is remembered, that, in the oldest Greek mythology, the proper location of Atlas is not at the west, in Libya, but in the extreme north, at the Pole.1 The four-fold fount, fiowing in four opposite directions, further identities the place with the mythical polar Gotterberg of the Iranians, Hindus, and other peo- ples? The same must be said of the beauty of the isle, which was so adorned with groves, and 4' soft meadows of violets, that the poet closes his description by asserting, that, ff on beholding it, even an Immortal would be seized with wonder and delight. 3 Finally, as we should know in advance, it is apparently Notos which bears the voyager thither, and Boreas which brings him thence to the Phaeacians. All evidences, therefore, conspire to tix the location of the long-adrift isle at the Arctic Pole. The Nmuch-contriving Odysseus crowns all his other achievements in the most fitting inanncr. Anticipating the belated Kanes and Franklins and Payers of our day, he snatchcs the supreme prize of Polar exploration! In conclusion, then, the recovery of the true Homeric conception of the Abode of Living Men pours a flood of light over the entire Odyssey, showing what we stated more than three years ago, namely, that the wanderings of Odysseus are a representation, in highly poetical form, of an imaginary circnmnavigation of the mythical Earth in its upper or northern hemisphere, including a trzjo to the under or southern hemisphere, and a visit to the North Pole.

No department is as yet, by any means, ade- quately endowed. The Trustees cannot doubt that pub- lic-spirited men and women will gladly aid in creating the needed facilities. The spirit of co-operation already mani- fested not only by the citizens of Boston, but also by friends of the institution throughout New England, and from beyond the boundaries of New England, is an assur- ance that the highest hopes of the founders of the Univer- Sity are in time to be surpassed, and far surpassed, by the reality. But while no apprehensions can be felt about the remoter future, and while individuals are now giving with a generosity worthy of all praise, it should be remem- bered, that with institutions, as with men, youth is a period of opportunities inestimably precious, that many of these, if not improved at the time, are forever lost. The Opportunities opening before this youthful University are unparalleled, but, without early additions to its pecuniary resources, some exceedingly important ones willhave to pass unused. The following is an extract from the General Statutes of the University:- NEw FoUNnA1'1oNs.-I. Any person giving or bequeathing to Boston University a sum not less than one hundred thousand dollars for the purpose of establishing a new department, or for the general 32 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. purposes of the institution, shall receive the title of Associate Founder of Boston University, and be published as such before the list of 'I'rus- tees in the Year Book of the University.

The aim oi' this College is to give that liberal education which is the true preparation for the study ot' a learned profes- sion, or for a life devoted to letters, education, or public affairs. It accordingly provides thorough and systematic instruction in all those branches of literature, philosophy, and science, known as the Liberal Arts. ' 46 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. ADMISSION.

ENGLISH. -A short composition on some theme selected from specified authors, and announced at the time of the examina- tion. Criticism of sentences as to correctness. The theme, according to the year, will be taken from one of the following works:- For 1883. - Shakcspeare's Julius Caesar, and As You like It, the De Coverley papers in The Spectator, Macaulay's Essay on Addison, Thackeray's Henry Esmond, and Scott's Marmion. For 1884. -Shakespeare's J ullus Caesar, and Merchant of Venice, Thackeray's Henry Esmond, Irving's Sketch-Book, Seott's Lady of the Lake, Carlyle's Essay on Burns, Burns's Cotteris Saturday Night.

Lowell's Vision of Sir Launfal, Gold- smlth's She Stoops to Conquer. All the books named for a given year are to be read by each candidate. An important feature of the above requisitions- is, that in the examinations in the languages the whole stress is laid, not upon the quantity which the student may have read, but upon his actual ability to handle thc language correctly. To prepare for these examinations, the pupil should be accustomed, from the beginning of the preparatory course, to translate into Latin 48 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BO0K. and Greek, both orally and in writing, passages prepared by the teacher, on the basis of the prose authors read. Satisfactory certificates from the principals of high schools and academies of good standing will exempt the candidate from examination in arithmetic, physics, ancient history, and geography. V DrvrsIoN or THE EXAMINATIONS. Candidates for admission may pass the entrance examinations at one time, or, if they prefer, may divide them, it being required, however, that, if the work be divided, at least one- half' must be taken at the time of the preliminary examina- tion. Moreover, candidates for admission to the preliminary examination must produce certificates from their teachers attest- ing their fitness in given subjectsg and no candidate will be examined in subjects not included in the certificate of the teacher. The examinations are mainly in writing, and deiiciencies in the legibility, spelling, or grammar of the students' papers, aflect the result of the examination. Specimens of 1'eeent examination-papers will be sent on application. An ability to recite one oration of Cicero memoriter will be taken as an equivalent for three orations read. If the student prefer, a proportionate allowance for memorizing will be made in Vergil. Instructors preparing students in Latin and Greek are re- quested to follow the Continental pronunciation of vowels, to give the Latin c and g the sound of Greek fc and -y, i consonant the sound of y in yes, and to insist on the observance of the Greek accents.

II. FOR CANDIDATES FOR THE DEGIEEE or BACHELOR or ARTS DESIRING TO PURSUE THE COURSE IN AN ELECTIVE 0IlDER. To accommodate an increasing number of mature students who desire to pursue the studies required for the 'degree of Bachelor of Arts, with greater thoroughness, or in a different order, or with greater leisure for reading or laboratory work than the regular four-years' course will permit, the further an- nouncement is made, that hereafter any student passing the examinations required for admission to the Freshman Class may matriculate as a candidate for the degree of Bachelor of Arts, with liberty to take the studies required for the degree in any order he prefers, subject to the approval of the Faculty. III. FOR SPECIAL STUDENTS. A limited number of special students, in addition to those connected with other departments, may, until further notice, be admitted to instruction in the College of Liberal Arts.

Regular morning devotions are conducted by members of the Faculty, at which all students are required to be present. All regular students are required to attend from fifteen to seventeen recitations, or other class exercises, per week. Any student prevented from attending upon a class exercise must present to the appropriate professor a written excuse from the Dean. On the first day of the Fall term, every student entitled to elect studies for the year ensuing must present to the Dean a list of those he desires to pursue. In all cases the selection must be subject to the approval of the Faculty, and one that can be arranged for without conflict of hours. After such ap- proval no changes will be allowed without special consent of the Faculty. The exercises of the College are arranged at such hours that students living in any of the neighboring cities or towns on railroad lines may conveniently attend. In most eases such students pay but half-f'are. Two large rooms are set apart and furnished as gymnasia, and every student has opportunity for physical exercise daily without charge. SOCIETIES. Several flourishing literary and debating societies have been organized among the students. EXPENSES.

This College is designed for students of the average pro-- ficiency of graduates of the best American conservatories of music. It is the only institution of its grade and kind in America. , The advantages accruing to it from its location in Boston, and from its intimate association with the University, are very great. Few persons devoting themselves to this profession are able to complete a liberal education before beginning their spe- cial musical training. Nor, indeed, ought they to do it. The best years for acquiring scholastic culture are also the best years for cultivating the voice, the ear, and the hand. A gen- erous intellectual and wsthetic culture is needed by every pro- fessional musician: but it is best acquired, not before or after, but in connection with, his special studies. The lack of oppor- , COLLEGE OF MUSIC. 61 tunities for such acquisition has been the chief defect of some of the most famous music-schools of the world. Had every great national conservatory always presented the collateral advantages for general culture which are here presented, the character of the entire profession would have been favorably affected. The inducements which invite persons of musical talent to fit themselves for some branch of the musical profession, par- ticularly for teaching, were never so great in this country as now. The demand for teachers of character and scholastic tastes as well as musical skill is far in excess of tl1e supply. Excellent situations await all who can add to natural gifts the needful fruits of training. The marked and steady growth of musical taste throughout the country, the consequent introduc- tion of musical instruction into public schools, the increasing demands of the multiplying churches, the introduction of new forms and occasions of popular musical entertainment, all give assurance that the call for teachers of the highest qualifications is one which is Sll1'6 to be permanent, and probably also increas- ingly urgent. ADMISSION. All candidates for admission must possess a thorough knowl- edge of the elementary principles of music, a correct ear, and a reasonable degree of skill in their chosen department. Candidates for instruction in pianoforte-playing must pass a satisfactory examination in harmony and execution. The previous course in harmony must have included all the principles in standard works on harmony as far as, and inclu- sive of, the harmonizing of chorals for four voices. In execu- tion the applicant will be tested as to correctness of manual position and movement, acquaintance witl1 the different kinds of touch, rapidity and clearness in the execution of all the major, minor, and chromatic scales, and of the arpcggios of the common chords and chords of the seventh, and finally as to his familiarity with the following compositions, or their equiv- alents: Cramer's Studies QBiiIowj, Books 1 and 2, or Cle- menti's ff Gradus ad Parnassum QTausig editionjg Bach's Two- and Three-Part Iuvcntionsg Moscheles, p. 705 Mayer, Op. 119, Book 19 Bach's French and English Suitesg 62 ' BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. Kullak's Octaves, Op. 493 pieces by Chopin, Schumann, Men- delssohn, and othersg Beethoven's sonatas. Applicants for instruction in organ-playing must be able to harmonize a choral in four parts, and to pass a satisfactory examination in the following, or real equivalents: Rink's Organ School, iirst five booksg Buck's Studies in Pedal Phrasingg Lernmen's Organ School, part second g The Organist, by South- ard and Whiting fused particularly for the study of instrumen- tationj 5 easy preludes and figures with pedal obligato by Bach, Mendelssohn, and others, introduction to extemporc playingg accompaniments for solo and chorus singing. Q For instruction in vocal music, the candidate must possess the general qualifications required of all applicants, also an ability to sing readily at sight, and a good degree of skill in solo-singing. The special qualifications required of those who wish to give attention to the violin, flute, or other orchestral instruments, are a familiarity with the technicalities of the instruments, and an ability to play the easier works of tl1e masters. Persons desiring information as to the best and most econom- ical method of Iitting themselves ibr the College are invited to correspond with the Dean. COURSES OF INSTRUCTION. The regular courses of instruction are as follows : - I. Counsn Fon Vocnmsrs. II. Couasn Fon Pmnrsrs. III. COURSE Fon ORGANISTS. IV. Counsns Fon ORCHESTRAL Pnrcronmnns. All of these courses include the study of musical theory, also the history and aesthetics of music. The course for vocalists includes, besides these, instruction in Italian, German, and French. Special courses can be arranged to suit the needs or tastes of students desiring less extended instruction than that of any regular course. Regular students are required to attend all lectures and con- certs of the College, also to play or sing at such concerts whenever appointed. 1 COLLEGE OF ZVIUSIC. 63 The methods of instruction employed are such as most rap- idly advance the pupil, viz., lectures, small classes, and private tuition when deemed necessary. The standard works of the great masters, both ancient and modern, representing the various schools of musical art, and including concerted music of all kinds, are constantly placed O before the pupils for study g and the entire course of instruction is arranged with a view to secure the highest standard of taste, lation of music to the other and an appreciation of the true re arts and sciences. SPECIAL FACILITIES. Students entering the College at the commencement of the year can be admitted to classes in the College of Liberal Arts without extra charge. Chamber-concerts, including piano and vocal solos, trios, quartets, etc., are given at frequent intervals by the College, in whiehpthe pupils are required to take part, and, in addition to this the opportunity is afforded them to attend the lectures 7 and sight-singing classes of the New-England Conservatory of Music, and to perform at its weekly concerts. ulture outside of the institution in The opportunities for c Boston are so well known, that it is hardly necessary to enu- merate them. During the concert season, miscellaneous con- certs by foreivfn and resident artists, chamber, symphony, and D oratorio concerts, are of almost daily occurrence, and the Ger- man Italian and English opera-troupes usually spend several 1 ? weeks in the city, giving representations of standard works. To some of these the students are admitted without charge. The general literary and' educational advantages of the city are of course unsurpassed.

In most cases three years will be sufficient for the completion of the course of instruction. Pupils who pass a satisfactory examination will receive the University diploma. Those who have specially distinguished themselves by their talents and scholarship will, if graduates ot' any college of arts, receive the degree of Bachelor of Musicg if not graduates of a college of arts, they will be required to pass an examination in English composition, history, and literature, a modern language QFrcnch, German, or Italianj, Latin for, instead of it, a second modern languagcj, and mathematics, before being eligible to tl1c above degree. CALENDAR. The College year is divided into two terms of twenty weeks each. The first term will begin Thursday, Sept. 10, 1885, and close Wednesday, Feb. 3, 1886. The second term will begin Monday, Feb. 8, 1886, and close Saturday, June 26, 1886. Applications for admission may be made for two weeks pre- ceding the commencement of each term.

COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE. 71 The instruction in the languages is intended to qualify the graduates to write and speak English with correctness and effect, and to translate tl1e French with facility. The scien- tific instruction is as thorough and practical as possible, and every science is taught with constant reference to its applica- tion to agriculture and the wants of the farmer. The regular course includes every branch of ordinary farming and gardening, and is both theoretical and practical. Each topic is thoroughly discussed in tl1e lecture-room, and again in the plant-house or field, where every student is obliged to work. The amount ol' required work, however, is limited to six hours per week, in order that it may not interfere with study. Students are allowed to do additional work, provided they maintain the necessary rank as scholars. All labor is paid at the rate of twelve and a half' cents per hour. Those who pursue a select course attend recitations and lectures with the regular classesg but those properly qualified, who desire special instruction in chemistry, civil engineering, veterinary science, agriculture, or horticulture, may make pri- vate arrangements with the officers having charge of these departments. The class in microscopy have the use of seven ot' Tolles's best compound microscopes, with objectives from four inches to one-eighth of an inch in focal distance, and a variety of eye- pieces. On Sundays students are required to attend church in the forenoon, and invited to join a class in the afternoon for the study of the Bible. They will be permitted to select their place of' attendance from among the churches in the town, which are of the following denominations: namely, Baptist, Congrega- tional, Methodist Episcopal, Protestant Episcopal, and Roman Catholic. GRADUATION. The regular course of study occupies four years, and those who satisfactorily complete it receive from the College the degree of Bachelor ot' Science, the diplomas being signed by the Governor of Massachusetts, who is president of the cor- poration. 72 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. If matriculants in Boston University, they can also receive the same degree at the hands of the University, with a diploma entitling them to the relation and privileges of alumni of the University. EXPENSES. Tuition, 8526 per termg room-rent, 35 to 810 per term, board, 352.50 to 33.50 per week, expenses of Chemical Labo- ratory to students of practical chemistry, S510 per term, pub- lic and private damages, including value of chemical apparatus destroyed or injured, at cost. Annual expenses, including books, 3200 to 55350. The only other college expenses are small, and occur but once in the entire course: such as, for furnishing a room, from 3510 to S50 3 matriculation in Boston University Qoptionalj, 355 5 diploma of the College, 3535 diploma of the University, 35. Indigent students are allowed to do such work as may offer about the public or farm buildings, or in the fieldg but it is hardly possible for one to earn 'more than from S550 to S5100 per annum, besides performing other duties. So far as is consist- ent with circumstances, students will be permitted to select such varieties of labor as they may, for special reasons, desire to engage in. Several agricultural associations assist needy. students in the College, while the Grinnell, the Farnsworth Rhetorical, the Hills Botanical, and the Totten Military Prizes afford the pro- ficent still other aid. The State Board of Agriculture have unanimously voted that every Agricultural Society receiving the bounty of the Common- wealth be urged to maintain at least one scholarship at the Col- lege, and to secure the attendance of one or more students. The Trustees also have voted to establish one free scholarship for each of the eleven congressional districts ofthe State, the appointments to which will be made by the representatives from the several districts. Eighty other free scholarships were established by the State Legislature in 1883, and any person desiring admission to the College can apply for one of those scholarships to the senator of his district.

With respect to methods of instruction, it is the aim oi' the Facility to secure the greatest possible freshness and variety consistent with scientific system and thoroughness. Accord- ingly, while a faithful use of the best books of reference in every branch is insisted on, the instruction is almost entirely oral. It is intended that the student. shall do something more than merely memorize text-books. WVhenever a branch of science, or a portion of a branch, can be best taught by a fresh original handling in the way of written lectures, or by free exposition, or by blackboard exercise, or by a Socratic method, or by a combination oi' any or all ot' these, the professors will not shrink from the additional labor which such methods neces- sarily iuvolve. In several branches, privately printed lectures are issued to the classes. REGULAR TRIENNIAL COURSE. F1ns'r rams.

MISSIONARY COURSE. Throughout the year there is a weekly Missionary Lecture by a member of the Faculty. This has been the practice for fourteen years past. The course covers, as fully as practicable, all the more important points in the Theory, History, and Prac- tice of Christian Missions. As treated, the matter is equally 1mp0l'i3iI.!li3 to future pastors and prospective missionaries. The Missionary Association of the School holds stated meet- ings to hear reports and original letters from former students a11d others in the various mission-fields, to pray for the increased success of missionary labor, to discuss questions connected with the mission-work, and, in general, to cultivate an intelligent personal interest in the great enterprise of evangelizing the world. During the past year it has been repeatedly addressed by returned missionaries and others who have personally in- spected foreign missions. As soon as this department can be suitably endowed, it is proposed to enlarfre the missionary instruction to a full three- rs years' course substantially as below. To its early establish- ment, friends of mis the necessary funds. sions are invited to contribute by providing FIRST YEAR.

All persons desiring to enter the School should present them- selves at 12 Somerset Street on Wednesday, Sept. 15, at two 0'c1ock P.M. Those entitled to apply for rooms will secure some advantages by notifying the Dean, and making application as early as practicable. No room will be reserved after the first have passed over, or p day, except by special agreement. All students whose circumstances will allow them to obtain a 0Ompletc classical education bef'ore applying for admission are earnestly recommended to do so. The highest interests of the . d ' student, of' the school, and of' the churches, deman lt. Young men or women who may be providentially debarrcd the privilege of pursuing the regular course in either division ' l one of one or more years, accord- are allowed to take a specia Ing to their circumstances. In like manner, preachers engaged ln the active work of the ministry, superintendents or teachers ' ' bl b of Sunday schools,--in fine, any persons deemed suita e y the Faculty, - are allowed to attend upon the exercises of the School by causing their names to be recorded in the Register, and prepaying the appropriate fees as special students. FREE TUITION, FREE ROOMS, ETC. B ' virtue of the arrangement in accordance with which the .Y Trustees of the Boston Theological Seminary tranferred their funds and trusts to the University, all candidates for the minis- try of the Methodist Episcopal Church in the regular course are entitled to free tuition year by year, and to the same or ffoided b equivalent privileges with respect to rooms as were a y the Seminary. 88 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. All applicants for these free advantages are required to pro- duce either a local preacher's license, or a recommendation from some Quarterly Conference after the following form: it We, the members oi' the Quarterly Conference of - Station for Cir- euitj, do hereby certify that -- is, in our judgment, called ot' God to the work of the ministry, and we cordially recommend him as a suitable person to be received as a student in the School of Theology of Boston University. The rooms provided for these students rent-free are of good size, well lighted, warmed by steam, and furnished with every thing essential to comfort, with the exception of carpets, bed- linen, and towels. For apartments of the same description, the neighboring hotels charge from one to two dollars a day. A married student boarding in the Club can be accommodated with room for himself, but not for his family. Special students are allowed to fill such vacancies as remain after the regular students have been accommodated. All students entitled as above to free tuition and rooms are also admitted to the privileges of' the Boarding Club. Favorcd with rent-free premises, and with direct access to the great markets of Boston, this club has been able to provide varied and excellent board for about 32.60 a week. This reduces the expense of board for the entire scholastic year to less than 3100. For the present the University is able to follow the example of the Seminary, and extend these free advantages to the cau- didates of all Methodist churches without distinction. As fast as the necessary funds are furnished, the same or equivalent facilities will be offered to all. CHARGES. The annual charges for regular students in the School of Theology are, for tuition Qwhen not remitted, or provided for as abovej, 850, one-halt' in advaneeg for beating, lighting, and care ot' public rooms, 810. Students occupying free rooms in the building are charged, for the heating and care of the same, 310. Both of these ten-dollar fees must be paid within three weeks after the opening in September. Special students Qin- cluding those who are attending upon the lectures of more than TIIE SCHOOL OF THEOLOGY. 89 a single classy are charged 3515 more than regular ones, that iS, when rooming themselves, 325, when desiring free rooms, 335, payable before registration. They are admitted to instruc- tion in elocution only on special terms to be arranged with the Dean. Applicants for graduation must deposit with the Regis- trar an examination and graduation fee of' 310 on or beforethe middle of May, but, in case any such applicant fails to pass the final examination, his fee will be allowed to stand over for the following year. PECUNIARY AID AND SELF-SUPPORT. The officers of' the School are authorized to remit the tuition- fee to all whose circumstances require it. Students who need assistance can usually receive loans to the amount of' 35100 a year from different education societies. In- formation cau be obtained by addressing the Rev. D. P. Kidder, DJJ., Corresponding Secretary of' the Board of' Education of' the Methodist Episcopal Church, 805 Broadway, N.Y., or the Secretary of any of its local auxiliaries in the different Con- ferences. Two scholarships have been established in connection with this School, one of' which will be available the coming year. They are Tm-1 WVARREN Scnonansme, established in honor of Mrs. Anne M. Warren of WVilliamsburgg and 'PHE Cmzlavnn Scuohnnsiur, established in honor of Mrs. Rachel P. Cheever of' Cambridge. The annual interestiof' the MARTHA Cone FUND, a bequest of 351,500, is devoted to the assistance of one or more students from year to yearg also the interest of 31,000 bequeathed by GEORGE IIUSSELL, M.D., of' Boston. There is also a small Loan Fund by which a few others can annually be aided. f A large number of' students entirely support themselves by supplying vacant pastoral charges in the vicinity, but all such arrangements must be made with the proper ecclesiastical au- thorities. ln no case can the Faculty definitely promise oppor- tunities of' this kind to a candidate in advance of his coming. Few, however, who have the needful experience for such labor, find difficulty in obtaining places, after becoming acquainted' in the city and its suburbs. 90 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. GRADUATION. All students who complete the regular course, and pass the required examinations, and present satisfactory theses, will be honorably graduated, and promoted to membership in the Uni- versity Convocation.

All persons proposing to study law as a profession are ear- nestly recommended to complete a course ol' liberal studies in some college before entering this School. V Applicants who have taken their first degree in Arts, Science, or Philosophy, are admitted without preliminary examination: all others must satisfy the Dean, personally or by letter, that they possess sufficient educational and other qualifications to enable them to pursue with profit the studies of the School. Generally the diploma or certificate ofthe honorable completion of an Academical or High Scl1ool course will be deemed suffi- cient for admission to the Junior Class. Students from other Law Schools are admitted to this on producing satisf'actory testimonials as to the work done, and character sustained, in such schools. If they have pursued the study of the law for one year in any other approved Law School, and two years in all, they may graduate after one more year's study here, if all other 'conditions are complied with. Persons wishing a knowledge of' legal principles, but not in- tending to apply for a degree, may be admitted at any time without examination, and avail themselves of such advantages of the School as they may deem expedient. Satisfactory testimonials or references are required of allg and those desiring to enter for advanced standing must pro- duce satisfactory certifieates of their previous study.. 98 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. Those just commencing the study of the law can be admitted with advantage only at or near the commencement of the October term. Others are admitted at any time, but it is confidently recommended to all to commence their legal studies in some law school, rather than in an office. Each candidate must sign a printed application furnished for the purpose, and correctly answer the questions contained therein, and he must adjust all dues at the Registrar's office, be regularly enrolled, and receive a Registration Ticket, before admission to the instruction of the School. INSTRUCTION. - UNDERGRADUATE COURSE. Most of the instructors in this School are regularly engaged in the practical administration of the law, either upon the bench or at the bar. I The course of instruction aims to combine the advantages of all approved systems and appliances. It includes the regular oral text-book exposition and recitation, free and written lec- tures, reviews, examinations, exercises in drafting contracts, conveyances, pleadings, indictments, and other legal papers, the criticism of briefs and arguments in moot courts, courses of reading, etc. t Although the aim of all the instruction is to teach a knowl- edge ot' principles, rather than of mere eases, yet special at- tention is given to fixing in the mind of the student the leading decisions on important subjects,--those which have become great landmarks in,the law,-as, Coggs v. Bernard, Lickhar- row 'v. Mason, Paisley 'u. Freeman, etc.5 and the student will be frequently called upon to state the facts and results of such cases beibre the School, and in the examination-papers. It is also sought to so combine the teaching of the theoretical prin- ciples and doctrines of the law, witl1 their practical application to actual cases as they arise in the present business affairs of the community, as to fit the student, in a measure, to act upon a given case, and know what H to do under the actual circum- stances presented to him. Some moot question will be frequently given out, founded on some current event of the day, on which some member of the School is appointed to read a paper, not over ten minutes in THE SCHOOL or LA W. 99 length, before the full School, and to discuss the principles involved and the authorities bearing on the samen A daily recitation and examination is held in the leading branches of the course. The Junior and Middle Classes must attend the Lectures on all Required Topics for those years respectively, keep note- books of the Lectures, and attend a daily recitation with the use of text-books. Any student is liable to be called upon, at any lecture, to read before the School his notes of the previous lecture, subject to the criticism of his fellow-students. These books must be handed in for examination, and must be satisfac- tory in order to obtain a degree. Each student must prepare an Analytical Chart, or Synopsis of the Lectures on any sub- ject or subjects, whenever so required by thc Deang the most satisfactory of which will be permanently suspended on the walls of the library or other rooms. At the close of each study of the Junior Year, an examination is held, of which a record is keptg and unless the same is satisfactory the student will be required to re-attend during the second year the lectures and recitations on the deficient branches, and pass examination therein, at the close of the second year, with the Junior Class of that year. The same rule applies to the second year. Mem- bers of the Middle Class, who have attended the year previous, may re-attend any of the lectures of the first year without charge, but are not entitled to attend those of the third year. 4 Subject to slight variations from year to year, the distribution of topics will be as follows : - FIRST YEAR. Agency fRequi'reclj . - Contracts 1 fRequiredj . - Criminal Law flilequiredj . - Elocution and Forensic Oratory 1 QElec- tivej . - Sales Qliequiredj . -Torts 1 Qlieqairedj. SECOND YEAR.

Instruction will be given every year in all ,of the required subjects and in a majority of the electives. Students who cannot attend the School more' than two years may attend the first and second years, spend the third year in au office, and then take their final examinations, and, if suc- cessful, may graduate as if they had attended three full years in the school. The courses of instruction in Political Economy, the Consti- tution of the United States, Roman Law, and International Law, in the College of' Liberal Arts, will also be open to stu- dents in the Law School without charge. Q TEXT-BOOKS. A few copies of the leading text-books are kept in the library for general useg but students are recommended to purchase their own books for daily use. They will find them of great assistance hereafter in their practiceg and free marginal anno- tation will much increase their value. An intimate familiarity with one good text-book on each subject will be of more service than a vague acquaintance with several. The following text-books are used for the Junior Class: viz., Metcalf and.Chitty on Contractsq Bigelow on Tortsg Benjamin on Salesg May and Wharton on Criminal Law.

COURTS, Ere. A The Law Department is located in the Law School Building, No. 10 Ashburton Place, near the State I-louse, City I-Iall, Court House, and Post-Office. Attendants upon the School enjoy unusual facilities for ob- serving the organization and working of courts, the actual progress of notable cases, the arguments of eminent counsel, the rulings of judges, the processes of decision, exception, appeal, etc. No less than six courts are holding their sessions almost continuously, within a few minutes' walk from the School. At the State House, the State Legislature-or if Great and General Court -is usually in session, from the first week in January till near the close of the academic year. Here are afforded opportunities for observing the whole process by which are propounded, considered, amended, and enacted the statutes which the tribunals of law are to interpret and apply. LIBRARIES AND READING-ROOMS. The following collections are accessible to all members of the School: QU The Law Library of the Ihiiversity. This is situated in the same building with the School, and consists of several thousand volumes, including the most important Law Reports, English and American, and the most approved text- books. By yearly additions the effort will be to make and keep it aumodel working library for students. It is open for the pur- pose of study, to all students who desire, from 8.30 A.M. to 5 P.M. 3 but no books can be taken from the library without spe- cial permission of the Dean. QQJ The State Library. This valuable collection, amounting to over 30,000 volumes, is sub- stantially a general Law Library, but is especially rich in codes, statutes, state papers, and all that pertains to legislation, American and foreign. Taken in connection with the long- accumulating archives of the State, it affords a rare mine to all engaged in special historical or local studies of American law. Students should apply to the Dean for a letter to the State Librarian. QSQ The Public Library of the City of Boston. This is the largest library in America. The collection numbers - THE SCHOOL OF LAW. 103 400,000 volumes and 100,000 pamphlets. It is particularly rich in state papers, its collection of United-States documents being more complete than any in possession of the government itself. Any book not in possession of the Library will, on application of a reader, be purchased, provided it is obtain- able, and no valid reason against its purchase appears. By special permission of the trustees, students in the Law School of Boston University are entitled to use and draw books, al- though residing out of the city. In order to enjoy this privilege, students not residing in Boston must Hrst obtain a NON-RESP DnN'r's card at the Library, and procure the same to be counter- signed by the Dean of the Law School. The Reading-Room ot' the Public Library is open without charge. All the leading professional, scientific, and literary periodicals of American and Europe are here taken. The selec- tion numbers between four and five hundred. Q41 Students who are members of the bar can enjoy the use of the Social Law Library, in the Court House at Court Square, containing over 16,000 volumes, for ten dollars a yearg and any member of the School, studying in the oflice of any member of the Association, may visit this library without charge. Other general and special collections are accessible upon the payment of a small annual fee. Moor connrs, CLUBS, Ere. For the purpose of familiarizing the students with the prac- tice of the law, a regular court has been established, called the U Court of the University, in which suits are commenced and conducted through all their stages to a final hearing, and decis- ions on questions ot' law, carried up by exceptions, appeal, report, writ of error, etc. It has a clerk, seal, docket, crier, sheriff, reporter, etc. The Moot Court, held every week, is presided over. by some member of the Faculty. Two members of' the School sit as associate justices, who prepare written opinions, which are bound with the case and briefs, and preserved in the Law Li- brary. The most important cases are printed and bound under the title of Boston University Reports, vol. i. of which is now published. Every candidate for a degree must have taken 104 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. part, either as counsel or judge, in at least two moot-court cases for the year of his graduation, unless specially excused. There are several Law Clubs among the students, in which legal questions are argued and discussed fsee p. 1081. GRADUATION. Candidates for graduation must make written application to the Dean of the Faculty, on or before the first day of February, on blanks furnished by the Dean for that purpose, and adjust all dues at the Registrar's office. An examination-fee of ten dollars must be enclosed with the application. No examina- tion of any student will be commenced until such application is flledg but any student failing to pass the required examination in any year may present himself for examination at a subse- quent year without charge. Every candidate must also present to the Dean, on or before March 1, a thesis on some legal.topic selected by himself and approved by the Dean, of not less than ten or more than twenty pages, to be written on paper obtained of the librarian, with a ruled inner and outer margin of suit- able width for binding. These essays are annually bound, and placed in the Law Library., In order to graduate, the student 'must have attained twenty-one years of age, and pursued the study of the law, unless in exceptional cases, three jitll years, one of which at least 'must have been in this Law School j and if only one year in this School, a written certificate of two years' study elsewhere will be requiredg but those who have been ad- mitted to the bar of their own State, one year prior to their admission to this School, may be graduated after one year here, without full three years' study, if all other conditions are com- plied with. The applicant must furthermore pass examinations in at least the following subjects: viz., Agency for Bailmcntsj, Bills and Notes, Contracts, Criminal Law, Equity, Evidence, Pleading, Real Property, Sales, Torts. The examinations of the Junior Class in the studies of that year, if satislhctory, will be ac- cepted in those branches as sufficient for graduatioug and the same rule will apply to the examinations of the. Middle Class. But students who have not passed such preliminary examina- tions satisfactorily will be examined in the studies of the entire K THE SCHOOL OF LA W. 105 course. Each examination-paper contains at least ten ques- tions. Ten perfect answers count one hundred, and, in order to pass a satisfactory examination, an average of sixty-six and two-thirds at least is necessary in the whole examination, and sixty at least in each topicg and the Faculty reserve the right to reject the lowest five at any examination, whatever their marks. Every applicant must abide the result of the first exam- ination, as no appeal and no second trial can be granted in any case. All such candidates successfully passing the examina- tions, and paying all dues to the University, and whose conduct and scholarship are otherwise satisfactory, will, it' personally present at commencement, receive the degree oi' Bachelor of Laws. Candidates who, in their final examinations, attain eighty-five per cent, will be enrolled in the Honor List, and this distinction will be noted in the diploma by the words Gum Laude. An average of ninety per cent entitles a student to H Magna Cum Laude, and ninety-live per cent to H Summa Cum Laude. The requisites for the degree ot' LL.B. are, - lst, A faithful study of the law for at least three years. 2d, Satisfactory note-books of all the required studies of the course. 3d, A participation as counsel or judge in the required num- ber of moot courts. ' 4th. A satisfactory thesis on some specific branch of the law, selected by the student. 5th, A written synopsis or analysis of some leading topic, if 1'eqnired by the Dean. ' 6th, An 'average ot' sixty-six and two-thirds per cent in all the studies of the examination, and at least sixty per cent in every study. Students not desiring to graduate, or receive a degree, can attend the lectures of any one year, without examination, for the first year's tuition-fee, namely, 3125 3 or the lectures of any two years' course in one year, for 3200. .

One of' these is nominated by the class, the other, with more particular reference to scholarship, by the Faculty of the Schoolg and both must be confirmed by the University Council. Each must select a topic approved by the Dean, and on or before the 15th of May submit to him for examination the proposed thesis or eration, the same not to exceed six minutes in delivery. This thesis will take the place of that required of all other students. FREE SCHOLARSHIPS. A limited number ot' free scholarships have been established for the second and third years, to be awarded by the Law Fac- ulty to such applicants, at the close of their jirst year, as shall appear to be most meritorious and needy. EXPENSES. The expenses of instruction for a three-years' course are such as to 'render it necessary slightly to increase the charges for tuition in the second and third years.

Good board is furnished to clubs at 83.50 per week, and rooms may be had for S3 a week, and upwards, for two persons. Many young men obtain situations in lawyers' offices, evening-schools, or are otherwise able to do something toward their own support. As there arc nearly two thousand attorneys in and about the city, the facilities for obtaining such situations are unusually good. Students can board in the towns in the vicinity of Boston, and attend tl1e lectures with convenience.

The length of the courses adopted renders it practicable to present a most thorough and'comprehensive curriculum of study,--one sufllcient to impart to the student a complete scientific as well as practical medical education. In each course the various branches are taught in a succession which, after several years' trial, approves itself to the Faculty as natu- ral and most promotive of thoroughness. To each term and each year, certain studies are assigned, in which the student is required to become proficient before entering upon more ad- vanced studies. 118 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. POST-GRADUATE COURSE. Physicians who have received the medical degree will be ad- mitted to the School, and allowed to attend such lectures as they choose, and will be entitled to 1'eceive a certificate of such attendance. In order to obtain the diploma. of the School, they must, by examination, satisfy the Faculty that they have fulfilled all the requirements of the School for graduation. SPECIAL COURSES. ' Suitable persons may be admitted to such course or courses of instruction in the School as they may select, and their at- tendance upon such instruction may be certified to upon their tickets. Such special courses will not count as any part of the three or four years' courses. CLINICAL INSTRUCTION. Daily clinics are held in the College building in the medical, surgical, gynaecological, and dental departments, and twice a week in diseases of the heart, lungs, throat, skin, eye and ear, and children. In these, as in other departments, special efforts will be made to familiarize the students with the best methods of examining patients, and to instruct them in all the details of diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment. Before graduation, all students will be required to furnish satisfactory written reports of at least twenty medical, five surgical, and three obstetric cases attended personally by them. They must also report in writing from each of. the other clin- ical departments five cases seen by them, giving four of the leading diagnostic symptoms, and four of the principal reme- dies applicable. Physicians are urgently requested to send to the College clinics, during the lecture sessions, such cases ofigeneral or special disease as possess unusual interest, or require particular skill and experience in their treatment. All operations and examinations before the class will be gratuitous. THE SCHOOL OF AIEDICINE. 119 TIIE MASSACHUSETTS HOMCEOPATHIC IIOSPITAL. This commodious structure is in close proximity to the School, and in the arrangement of its wards, its ventilation, light, and heat, is unsurpassed by any hospital in the country. The students will have as free access to its wards as practic- able, in order that they may become familiar with disease in its various formsg and clinical lectures'and instruction will be given upon a variety of diseases. Durinff tl1e past year the hospital has been enlarged at a cost D exceeding S90,000. It was completed and opened in Novem- ber last. It has special facilities for the care and comfort of the patients, and has one of the tlnest operating theatres in the country. A large number of 1'are and instructive surgical operations are performed in the presence of the students, who are, in many cases, allowed to assist. THE CITY HOSPITAL. By vote of the trustees, the male students are allowed to be present at the surgical operations. As it is but a short dis- tance from the School, the lecture hours of the Senior and Mid- dle Classes are so ar1'angcd, that, without loss of time, these students can be present at all important operations. The great extent of the hospital, and the large number of surgical cases, afford an opportunity of witnessing nearly every variety of ,surgical operation. THE HOMCEOPATHIC MEDICAL DISPENSARY. This institution has three different locations in the city. These are accessible to the studentsg and, from the large num. ber of patients who resort to this charity daily, there is an excellent opportunity for the practical study of acute and chronic diseases. During the past year, more than fifteen thou- sand eases have been treated, and over thirty-seven thousand prescriptions and visits made. Students in the Senior year are allowed to visit patients at their homes, and prescribe under the direction and with the aid of the professors. In addition to the above, there are public and private hospi- 120 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. tals which students can obtain permission to visit, and thus familiarize themselves with the various methods of treatment. WVESTBOROUGII INSANE HOSPITAL. The establishment by tl1e State of an Insane Hospital, where the patients will receive homoeopathic treatment, will give in- creased opportunities to the students of this School to 'obtain clinical instruction in insanity and mental diseases, -a branch of medicine which is of increasing importance.

Arrangements have been made with Otis Clapp S: Son to furnish to students all the text-books used in the School at the lowest net cash prices. EXAMINATION S. The first part of the lecture is often devoted to a brief oral examination or resume of the principal subjects treated in the preceding lecture. In several chairs, the assistant meets the class once or twice a week, and carefully reviews the subject of the preceding lectures, explaining any doubtful points. Quiz classes have been organized among the students for mutual improvement, and they have proved serviceable in more thoroughly impressing the instruction upon the studcntfs mind. At the end of each term, an examination is held on the studies finished during the term. The student is required to complete the studies of one year before entering upon those of the next. Should he, however, fail in one, or at most, two studies, having passed the others creditably, he will be allowed till the end of the next term to complete his examination. The final examinations of the Senior year are held at stated times during the last term preceding Commencement. After each successful examination the student receives a card stating the percentage he has therein attained. Fifty per cent will be required from each chair in order to passq but an average of seventy per cent will be required from all the chairs in order to enable the student to graduate. THE SCHOOL Olf' MEDICINE. 125 LIBRARIES, READING'-ROOMS, ETC. The following are open to the student without charge : - 1. The Library of the School contains about two thousand volumes, comprising some of the most recent and valuable works in medicine and the collateral sciences, including text- books and works of reference, of which a printed catalogue has been prepared. The Library is in the College building. It is opened regularly every Saturday, and occasionally at other times. 2. The Public Library of the City of Boslon. -No collection in America equals this, either in extent or valueg but one, the Congressional, is comparable with it. Even as to strictly medi- cal works, it is said to be outranked by but two in the country, --one, that of the Surgeon-General in Washington, and the other, a special collection in Pennsylvania. Non-resident stu- dents will, on application to the Public Library, be furnished with a ticket, to be countersigned by the Dean, admitting them to its privileges. 3. The Reading-Room of the Public Library. More than four hundred periodicals, including leading medical journals fAmerican and liuropeanj, are here taken. 4. A legacy, left by the late Dr, I-Iarriot K. Hunt, provides by its income medical text-books for women students who need them. The trustees of this fund have placed its income under the charge of the Faculty of this School, and books are loaned to these students during the term-time. i 5. The varied and valuable facilities for general culture which Boston affords in its other libraries, its collections of natural history, its courses of scientific and literary lectures, its classical and popular concerts, and its art exhibitions, make an aggregate of general educational agencies whose value to the earnest and ambitious student can hardly be over-estimated. MUSEUM. Preparations in wax, illustrative of anatomical structures and pathological conditions, have been made expressly for this School. The collection of anatomical, pathological, and physio- 126 BOSTON UN1VERSlTY.YEAR BOOK. logical specimens is already quite large, and steadily inereasingg while the histological and microscopical cabinet contains many rare and beautiful specimens. The friends of the School will subscrve its interests by procuring and forwarding to the Museum any suitable specimens. GRADUATION. - . Candidates for the degree of Bachelor of Medicine or Bach- elor of Surgery must have studied medicine three full years, the last of which was in this School, and must have passed exam- inations iu all the branches of the first three years of the four- ycars' course in this School with a minimum average of eighty per cent.

Garjield Scholarsluyo. - A fund has been contributed, the in- come of which will be used to aid, by scholarships, such young men as the Faculty may deem most worthy. It is hoped that the alumni and friends of tl1e School will add to this fund yearly. Wade Scholarships. - A limited number of scholarships, re- sulting from the income of the Wade Fund, bequeathed for the benefit of poor and worthy young women, is at the disposal ot' the officers of' the School, and will be available to such as require assistance. There are also several positions in which successful and worthy applicants, whether men or women, may receive valu- able assistance in the prosecution of their studies. Among these are the following: - House Physicians and House Surgeons to the Massacliusetts Homoeopathic Hospital.--Although this institution is entirely independent of the School, yet for several years these positions have been filled by students in their third or fourth year of study. The successful candidates receive board and lodging, and valuable clinical advantages, in the Hospital. The Consztmptives' Home and Cancer Hospital.-Appoinb ments have been made in both of these institutions, which, aside from the aid furnished, afford excellent opportunities for instruction in the special diseases treated. Resident Physician and Resident Surgeon to the College Dis- pensary. 4The incumbents secure room-rent free, and have very valuable opportunities for seeing practice. The Assistants to the Librarian, Janitor, and Professors, receive aid i-n proportion to the work done. Other positions are created as the interests of the School demand. COLLEGE BUILDING. In pursuance of an enabling Act of the Massachusetts Legis- lature, the New England Female Medical College was, in 1874, united with the Boston University School of Medicine. The original college building, eligibly situated on East Concord Street, opposite the City Hospital, has been greatly enlarged, BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. 129 d now contains three ample lecture-rooms, including an an amphitheatre capable of seating three hundred students, labo- ratories, a spacious and airy dissecting-room, a museum, a library, and cloak and dressing rooms for ladies and gentlemen. . . . th Any information on special subtyects connected with e School may be obtained on application to the Dean, I.

This School is designed, first, for the benefit of Bachelors of Arts, of' whatsoever college, who, with little or no direct refer- ence to fitting themselves f'or a professional life, may desire to receive post-graduate instruction in this University, and, sec- ondly, to meet the wants of' graduates in Theology, Law, Medi- cine, or other professional course, who may wish to broaden and supplement their professional culture by courses of study in related sciences, arts, and professions. It is the department which crowns and unifies the entire University. Being a department for elective post-graduate study only, the School will present no strictly prescribed courses. All can- didates for degrees, however, will be advised with respect to their studies, and will receive a degree only after pursuing a. THE SCHOOL OF ALL SCIENCES.. 139 course approved by a committee of the Council, and passing a satisfactory examination upon it. When fully organized, the instruction presented will include all branches of knowledge adapted to the ends of a universal post-graduate school. To qualified specialists it will aim to provide thorough in- struction in - A All Cultivated Languages and their Literatures. All Natural and Mathematical Sciences. V All Theological, Legal, and Medical Studies. All Fine Arts, properly so called. All branches of Special Historical Study, etc. For qualified students of generalizing aims, instruction will be provided as rapidly as possible in the Universal Sciences. Under this term are included all those disciplines in which the matter common to several special sciences is treated as a larger whole. When this is done genetically, there results, according to the method employed, a universal or comparative history of the matter treatedg when statically, a universal or compara- tive science of itg when philosophically, a universal or com- parative philosophy of it. Here, therefore, belong such sciences as these : - ' Universal or Comparative History of Languages. Univprsal or Comparative Philology. Universal or Comparative Philosophy of Language, or Philos- ophy of Language universally considered. Universal or Comparative History of Religions. Universal or Comparative Theology. Universal or Comparative Philosophy of Religion, or Philos- ophy of Religion universally considered. ,Universal or Comparative History of Laws. Universal or Comparative Jurisprudence. Universal or Comparative Philosophy of Law, or Philosophy of Law universally considered. Universal or Comparative History of Societies. Universal or Comparative Sociology. Universal or Comparative Philosophy of Society, or Philoso- phy of Society universally considered. 140 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. These sciences are all of recent birth, several of them, in- deed, scarce christenedg but all of them are legitimate chil- dren of the new science and new methods of the nineteenth century. Others are sure to follow. 1 CURRENT INSTRUCTION. The current year, the following courses are open to matricu- lants in the School of All Sciences:- PI-IILOSOPIIICAL COUR SES. 1.

Ot' the above a few may fail to be given, from lack of a sufll- cient number ot' applicants for them, but in such cases a fair increase of' the tuition-fee will secure the course. Persons who have already been admitted to the degree ot' Bachelor ol' Arts, and who desi1'c to fit themselves to become professors ot' Oratory, are invited to communicate with the Dean, or with the Snow Professor of Elocution and Oratory. As heretofore, the Bachelor of Arts can attain the Master's degree by successfully pursuing prescribed oratorical and other studies for two years. THE ADVANCED DEGREES IN LAW1 The following are the regulations governing admission to the degrees ot' Master of Laws and Doctor of Civil Law:- I. Applicants for enrolment as candidates for either of these degrees must already have been admitted to the degree of Bachelor of Arts and to the degree of Bachelor of, Laws, and, if desired, must furnish testi- monials of good moral character. II. They must cause their names to be enrolled at the office of the Registrar of the University, paying an enrolment fee of 910. This registration will be accounted as at the same time a matriculation in the School of All Sciences, and will entitle the persons enrolled to all privileges accorded to students in that department. III. Before a duly enrolled student can be admitted to the degrees, the following conditions must have been complied with: to wit, - 1. The candidate for the degree of Master of Laws must have pre- sented himself at not less than two annual examinations, and the candl- date for the degree of Doctor of Civil Law, at not less than four. It is not required that these examinations be in all cases in consecutive years, though it is preferred that they should be. ' 2. The candidate for the degree of Doctor of Civil Law must have passed in all the subjects required in Regulation IV., and the candidate for the degree of Master of Laws must have passed in such a. selected number of these subjects as shall be considered by the Dean of the School of Law the full equivalent for one-half the work required for the Doctor's Degree. ' 3. The candidate must have presented to the Dean of the School of Law, six weeks before the final examination, an original thesis upon some subject previously agreed upon. This may be in Latin, German, French, or English. In the case of candidates for the Master's degree, the thesis may be in manuscript or prlntg and, if in manuscript, it should be ln length not less than thirty nor more than sixty pages letter-size, written on the right-hand pages only. In the case of the candidate for the THE SCHOOL OF ALL SCIENCES. 143 Doctor-'s degree, it must be a printed disquisition or treatise, giving evidence both of original research and of literary skillg and a copy must be furnished to each member of the Examining Committee and to each member of the Law Faculty. 4. All dues must have been settled at the office of the Registrar. IV. The examinations to be passed relate to the following subjects, under each of which recommended authors are named:- I.

THE NATIONAL UNIVERSITY AT ATHENS.- Members of the School of All Sciences of Boston University who are Bachelors of Arts can pursue approved courses of study in the National University at Athens without expense for tuition. On returning, and passing a satisfactory exami- nation, such students will receive their appropriate degree pre- cisely as if they had remained in residence. The National University of Greece, organized by the renas- cent kingdom in 1836, has steadily advanced in strength and resources, until it has come to be recognized as one of the great universities of the world. Many years ago Professor Felton wrote of it, Among its professors are men who would do honor to any European university. Since that time its corps of instructors has nearly doubled, and the number of students risen from six hundred to between one and two thousand. The programme of lectures for the current term presents over one hundred separate courses. For the purpose of indicating some of the advantages afforded to students of Philology, History, and Art, a selection from the lecture-topics of the Philosophi- cal Faculty was given in a former volume of the YEAR Boon. THE ROYAL UNIVERSITY AT ROME. Members of the School of All Sciences who are Bachelors of Arts can also pursue approved courses of study in the Royal University at Rome, and on returning, and passing a satisfac- tory examination, receive the appropriate degree. Founded in 1244, fostered through centuries by spiritual and temporal potentates, beautified by the skill of Michael Angelo, supplemented by the unequalled attractions of the Eternal City, the University of Rome has been for many generations one of the most renowned in the world. ' Soon after the occupation of the city as capital of the new kingdom of Italy, the University was entirely re-organiiedupon a plan worthy of its new metropolitan importance. In Novem- ber, 1870, it was re-opened with appropriate celebrations. Since that time its new fame has been steadily increasing. As in the other national universities, the Faculty of Theology has been abolished. The Faculty of Law numbers about twenty professors. Their lecture-courses cover: Introduction to the THE SCHOOL OF ALL SCIENCES. 145 Study of the Juridical Sciences, I-Iistory of Jurisprudence: Roman Law, the Civil Codeg Institutes of Canon Lawg Crim- inal Lawg Procedure in Criminal Law, Civil Procedureg Administrative Law, Mercantile Law, Political Economy, Science of Finance: Constitutional Lawg International Law, Admiralty, Philosophy of Lawg Medical Jurisprudence, etc. The Faculty of Medicine and Surgery has over thirty pro- fessors and assistants. Every branch of Medicine, Surgery, Pharmacy, and Veterinary Science is included in the instruc- tion. Connected with a large number of the most magnificent and extensive hospitals in the world, the clinics of the medical departments are of remarkable variety and value. The Faculty of Physical and Mathematical Sciences is of the same size as that of Medicine, the Faculty of Philosophy and Letters, only a little smaller. In this last department alone there are some fifty courses of instruction from term to term. The great libraries of the city, its various learned societies of cosmopolitan fame, its museums and palaces and galleries of art, its historic basilicas and churches and catacombs, its monuments of ante-Christian antiquity, walls, pillars, arches of' triumph, fora, aqueducts, temples, tombs, -all these and many more are among the daily instructors of the student in Rome. DEG REES. Matriculants in the School of All Sciences may be admitted to any of the following degrees upon the conditions indi- cated:- 1. The degree of Doctor of Philosophy is conferred upon candidates otherwise properly qualified, who, after admission to the degree of Bachelor of Arts, pursue in this School for two years approved studies in Philosophy, or in Philosophy and one or more of the following departments, -Philology, History, Literature, Mathematics, Natural Science, Political Science, or the Fine Arts, -- and pass satisfactory examinations thereon. . 2.

Graduates of other universities satisfactorily accredited will be received on the same terms. For special provisions affecting the dues of Bachelors of Arts 148 A BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. of this University, see College of Liberal Arts, fi The Higher Degrees. SCHOLARSI-IIPS. To enable this School to render the high service to American scholarship which it is adapted to render, provision should be made for the partial support of all who give promise of emi- nence in the studies required for a second degree, but who cannot command the resources necessary to further residence. Such provision can best be made by the endowment of scholar- ships and fellowships under the administration of the Trustees ofthe University. This work is warmly commended to persons of wealth desirous of rendering the highest forms of education a most needed service. The General Statute oi' the University upon Scholarships, adn the privilege accorded to founders of them. may be seen under the head of New Foundations in this issue of the Yr-:An Book. FELLOWS H I PS . The purpose of the Fellowships is to aid the meritorious in special investigations and studies beyond the second degree. The country has a great many scholars of the -average excel- lence of a thorough Master of Arts. It greatly needs, in addi- tion to these, at least a few in every great department of learning, who, over and above the highest ordinary advantages, shall have enjoyed the best that the world can anywhere afford.

ESTABLISIIED IN IS28. ONE reason for the thorough preparation for college at this school is the division of the classes in ancient and modern languages into small sections. Every scholar receives a great deal of personal attention, and the teachers are ready to give extra help out of recitation-hours. The school has already increased its attention to modern lun.. g'lmg'eS, and is ready to meet in this line any new requirements .for college. The attention of parents, particularly of those who wish their children to begin Latin at an early age, is invited to 1. The watchful care here in regard to Sanitary Mat- ters. 2. The aid in the formation of Character, Habits, and Manners. ' 3. 'l'he attention given through the whole Classical and English Courses to Composition, English Literature, and Deelnmation. The large number of Teachers affords unusual advantages for Stu- dents wishing' to enter Professional Schools without going through College. Students fitting for THE INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY receive special instruction in a class by themselves during the last year before examination, in addition to work done in the regular school classes. Young Ladies who are intending to take a collegiate course, or to enter the Institute of Technology, can have the great advantage of recit- ing in the same classes with boys who are on the regular course of prep- aration, and of being under teachers who have successfully carried on such preparation for many years. Such students have been fitting here, or are new fitting, for Boston and Cornell Universities, the l-larvard Annex, Smith, Vassar, and Wellesley Colleges, and the Institute of Teclniology. I Information can bc obtained from the President and Faculty of Boston University in regard to the standing of their students whose preparatory course was finished at Chauncy Hall. In order to furnish a means of culture for persons whose school-days are over, or whose health does not admit of full school-hours, SPECIAL STUDENTS ARE ADMITTED T0 ALL REGULAR CLASSES.

REASONS FAVORING ITS SYSTEM OF INSTRUCTION. THREE HUNDRED years establlshcd ln Europe. The governments convened thelr ablest mnslclans for counsel and advlce as to the best system to be adopted for lmpartmg muslcal knowledge, and the unanimous verdlct was CLASS lnstructlon. Laudable ambltlon to excel. Mlnd matched with mlnd sharpens Intellect. We are constantly Influenced by others. Competltlon ls the llfe of trade, and also ot' study. H Rlflldence overcome by publlc performance In Class, In Conservatory, and in Music a s. ' Each pupil has the bcueflt of whole hour lessons, and not ten or flftcen mlnntes as ls often falsely represented. Economy. Cost of tultlon only flftcen dollars for a slngle study, whlch, with the collateral advantages ofl'ered, amount to a hundred and twenty-flve hours of Instruction each term. The largest eonservatorles of Europe do not provide half this number. Ppplls are carefully graded aceordlng to proflclency, and promoted as their progress requ res. Mendelssohn says, U It has advantages over prlvate lnstructlong lt produces lndustry, spurs on to emulation, and preserves agalust one-sldedncss of education and taste. The muslcal atmosphere of the Conservatory is condnclve to broader culture. The best Instructors educated ln Europe received their education at conservatorles. A flnlshed muslcal education is attainable, from thcjirst rudimentn to flnal gradua- tion: and to-day the NEVV-ENGLAND CONSERVATORY can pelnt with honest prlde to hundreds of her students who are tllllng important posltlons In Boston and throughout the land. llarper's Monthly chnracterlzes It as the Model 'Muslc School of the age. Evenlng classes are formed each term, ln order that those otherwise occupied durlng the day may have the same Instruction as day scholars. Prlvate lessons are glven, if preferred, at teachers' regular rates. Reduction ln prices of admlsslon to the finest concerts ln the clty ls frequently made. Oratory and Languages also taught. Our .School of Eloculion ls larger, and affords more advantages, than any other ln America. Art Department, for Drawlng, Palntlng, and Modelllng, second to none In the country. The Increased facilltles of' this Instltutlon, and Its Important connecllons wlth Bos'roN Uulvsmsrrv, enable It to offer by far the best prlvlleges for muslcal and literary culture that can possibly be obtalncd In thls country, and, along wlth the Cocmmn es' Musto or Bos'roN Umvnasrrr, It affords advantages supplementary to the Conservatory Course fully equal In breadth and completeness to those of any European lnstltutlon. The general muslcal advantages of Boston, It being acknowledged the best patron of musle of our American cltles. Over seven hundred publlc concerts are glven In a slngle season, and access to llbrarles contalnlng over eight thousand musical works. Home Department. Fine appolntments, includlug rooms and board for over flve hundred lady students In the heart ot' Boston, confessedly the muslcal, llterary, and art centre of Amerlca. The Director, Preceptress, Matron, and Falnlly Physlclan resldc ln the Home. Excellent board and rooms secured at moderate rates. The clty affords many facilities to ald In defraylng expenses. Some of our students avall themselves of these opportunltles. Over thlrty three thousand students have attended the Conservatory. These could not all be sollclted personally: hence there must be some way to account for thls number.

E. TOURJEE, Director, Franklin Square, Boston, LASELL SEMINARY FOR YOUNG WUNIEN. AUBURNDALE. MASS. QTEN MILPIS FROM BOSTONJ 'l'IlE ONLY SCHOOL FOR YOUNG WOMEN ALONE, UNDER THE AUSPICES OF TIIE METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH IN NEW ENGLAND. YVo suggest to parents seeking a good school for thelr daughters the following con- siderations in regard to the speclnl alms of Lasell Semlnary ln the edueatlon of young women :- Fiwft, It ls thoroughly homellke ln character. A large number wlll never be received. Flfty were refused thls year for want of room. A judiclous mothcrly care takes the place of glven rules. The puplls soon feel that they are loved and trusted. The system fpecullar to thls scheolj of self-government, after a successful probatlon, appeals to the best motives, and rarely hulls to strengthen ln each young woman a sense ol' responslhll- ity to herself that is most valuable for llfe. Second, It glves speclal care to health. Young people, glrls cspeclally, ought not to work under nach eondltlons that at the end ol' a school year they are tlred Olll.. A lady physlelan is ln regular attendance at the expense of the school: looks after ventllatlon, dress, care of the body, and advlses proper work and recreation for lndlvldual eases. The new gymnasium, furnished under the dlrectlon of Dr. Sargent of Cambridge, ls managed by a lady graduate from hls Glass for Teachers. Third, It has established a hnndlwork department. Bcllerlng that cooklng, dress- cuttlng, milllnery, and slmllar branches, are of Importance ln every young woman's prep- aration for actual llfe, whether ever required for self-support or not, we have for some years given them attentlon qulte unusual lu schools. The Instructors are Boston speelallstsg and these branches are placed on the basls of history, muslc, book-keeping, or any of the studles taught. Fourth, It glves unusual opportunltles for the study of the modern languages. French and German are taught by both native and English teachers. Fifth, Its muslcal advantages are unexcelled. Our teachers are speclallsts of estab- lished reputation in Boston. Instruction ls given ln llxnlted classes, or prlvately, as desired. The courses for dlplomas are more extended than ln most conservatorlesg and pupils have the great advantage of hearlng what ls best ln Boston, a centre of muslcal culture. Twenty new and carefully selected plnnos, lncludlng u pedal-piano for organ pupils, havejust been placed at the service of the music pnplls. They are mostly up- rlghts, and are from Decker, Knabo, Emerson, Hallct Sc Davls, Chlckcrlng, Miller, and Stelnway. Sixth, It glvcs thorough lnstructlon ln a broadly planned course of study. It utll- lzcs constantly the rare opportunltles whlch Its nearness to Boston gives lt for securlng the best masters ln tho varlous departments. In hlstory and Engllsh llterature we do unusually extended work, YVllllam J. Rolfe, the peerless Engllsh elasslclnt, supple- ments the class Instruction ln lltersture by weekly readings, with the pupils, of Shak- speare and other Engllsh classics.
