A 1 P S' jf. in I Y 2305 t ??l1- BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. SERIES II. BOSTON, MARCH, 1886. VOL. XIII. Colleges, universities, and other institutions receiving this volume of the YEAR BooK, are respectfully requested to acknowledge the same by for- warding to its Editors a copy of 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. DURING the past year additions more or less important have been made to every Faculty. In September the School of Theology is to be opened in its fine new home on Mt. Vernon Street, a few rods west of the State House. The priceless Musee Guiinet, the finest collection ever made for the illustration of the religions of all nations, is about to be removed from Lyons, and housed in a magnificent new building ln Paris. What Boston millionnalre will follow the example of M. Guimct, and enrich our city and republic with a like museum? The attraction of such an institution would be felt by the learned and the unlearned from ocean to ocean. The opportunity is a precious one. Of late, in several colleges, a disposition has shown itself to attempt the teaching of Political Economy in a more impartial manner, by placing the work in the hands of two instructors, -the one a representa- tive of the Free Trade theory, the other a. representative of Protectlonism. For such a plan great credit has been claimed by its authors, and not a few fair-minded and influential organs of public ignorance have joined in its commendatlon. Now, if the supreme purpose of a college be to train up mere political partisans, -invincible free-traders, and equally invincible protectionists, -it must be confessed that no better scheme could probably be devised. On the other hand, if the aim of the college is to libernlize and broaden the mind, so that the student shall be able to rise above partisanship, and do full justice to all the social laws and truths involved in this question, then it is hard to see how a worse scheme could possibly be devised. To an enlightened mind there is no conflict whatsoever between the princi- ples which should underlie free trade, and the principles which should underlie a tariff, and no man can so correctly teach the principles of the one policy or of the other, as the man who teaches the principles of both. 4 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. Just as, other things being equal, a man skilled in pure mathematics will be a better teacher of any branch of applied mathematics than one who is not land vice vcrsai, so is it in pure and applied Economics. Pure Economics is simply the theory of ideal industrial and commercial rela- tions and adjustments in ideal communities of wealth-seekers ideally related to each other, or in humanity viewed as one wealth-seeking community, with all its component parts in uniform and entirely recipro- cal relalions. Lrtissezfaire-isme is its necessary and inevitable outcome. Applied Economics, on the-other hand, inquires and shows in what manner, and to what extent, and for what reasons, the actual must modify the economic ideal. It recognizes nations because they, of right, exist, and have functions which need to be understood. It remembers, that in all nations, and in humanity as a whole, there are other than proprietary interests, and that to all these the industrial and commercial activities must be sociologically co-ordinated. It is willing that a little time and thought be given to the development of the noblest, strongest, and most symmetrical civil and social life, even though the annual crop of opium or tobacco be a few pounds less than otherwise might be possible. Studying thus all human interests, in all the various actual environments of communities, and nations, and families of nations, its reasons for desiring a tariff in one land or thne are precisely its reasons for opposing a tariff in another land or another time. Now, if one desired thoroughly to obscure these fundamental facts, and hopelessly to blind the student to them, what more effectual plan could be invented than the one described, according to which the whole wisdom of the college confesses its inability to decide between the claims of two bodies of doctrine supposed to be antagonistic, and weakly offers to its half-trained youth a personal option between two party champions, both selected on the very ground of their narrowncss and mental disqualifica- tion for seeing the true character of the question in debate. One narrow and partisan teacher in a college is bad enough, two create a situation twice as bad, but, when to their respective misapprehensions and false teachings the authoritative sanction of the government of the college is given, the evil is beyond estimation. One of the chief things for which institutions of liberal education exist, is precisely to rebuke and to antagonize all such Philistinlan Halbheiten as this. All friends of good learning will desire to aid the American Archaeo- logical Institute in its effort to secure the funds needed to erect a build- ing at Athens for the American School of Classical Studies. Address Professor John Williams White of Cambridge, Mass. The School has recently been opened to women. The same friends, if as broad-minded as they should be, will also be glad to learn that the Modern Language Society of America is developing a remarkably vigorous life. .By invi- tation of Boston University its second annual meeting was held in Jacob Sleeper Hall, Dec. 27-30, 1885. Nearly every strong college in the land was represented. ITIIE CONTENTS. EDITORIAL NOTES . CONTENTS . . . . . . . . . THE UNIVIDRSITY DIRECTORY . . . . ORGANIZATION OF THE 'UNIVERSITY .

T Bos'roN 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 Claiiin. 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 oflicially approved and signed the act of incorporation was a son of the second of the original corporators. The Corporation. -Under the provisions of the Charter, the power of receiving, holding, and administering funds, establishing departments of instruction, appointing ofiicers 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 The Trustees of Boston University. The body consists of the President of the University ea:-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: H The Trustees of the Boston University, 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 applicablefto benevolent and scientific corporations organized under the laws of this State. The University Council. - Under the provisions of the stat- utes 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. 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 Visit0rs.- 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-ojicio 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 piovide 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.

THE question, VVhere was the mother-region of the human race? is one of' absolutely universal interest. It concerns alike the Old World and the New. It compels the attention of every scientist, lphilosoplier, historian, humanist. It is bound up with tlleolglest and most sacred traditions of the entire human fam- ily. Its solution -- and this alone - will solve numberless other related problems connected with the ethnic affinities, the age, the migrations, the languages, the customs, the arts, the civiliza- .wwi 1 .., ' 20 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. tions, the traditions, the mythologies, the laws, and the reli- gions of all the tribes and races of mankind. In the present paper it is proposed to notice some of' the latest and least known of' recent attempts to answer the great problem, and with brevity to indicate their bearing upon another solution, which on both sides of' the Atlantic, in the most scientific and- scholarly circles, is to-day rapidly superseding every earlier hypothesis. Last spring, simultaneously with the issue ot' Paradise Found, 1 there was published in Leipsic a German work, enti- tled H The Solution of the Paradise Question. 2 In his preface the author speaks in no hesitant style. He tells his readers how the discovery dashed upon him in the month ot' August, 1873. It was 4' like a lightning flash, it came as an illumination, it was a revelation. During more than ten years he has been acquir- ing data, and elaborating the work now presented. He claims, that, as soon as once the main idea was caught, every thing else followed so inevitably from it, that every danger of screwing, up the possible or merely probable to the point of certainty H was entirely precluded. So he adds, ti Even in the fzicgof eighty nugatory attempts at a solution, it is no illusion or ar- rogancy to name this treatise 'Tue Solution of the Paradise, Questiou,' for it accomplishes what it promises, it proves what it asserts, it gives perfect certainty as to that which Gen. 10-14 geographically describes.

' , Ii' the reader will open his best map ol' Palestine, and, looking a little te the south-east of Damascus, carefully 'note where a line from 330 8' north latitude would intersect a line from 37D 2-1' east from Greenwich, he may place his linger upon the very spot. The Eden in which it is situated is not prepossessiug. Our author makes no attempt to make it out a H land of pleasant- ness. On the contrary, the whole region is described as one of' the most desolate and lifeless and Tartarean deserts to be found on the face of the earth.1 For miles on miles in every direction there is not a green tlnng, nothing but ancient lava- Iields, and fields covered with black volcanic stones, often so thick that a horse cannot make his way over Ll10lll.2 In other places, vast lumps of basalt, large as a camel, eneumber the ground? This vast tract is called the Harra, 'i a glowing region, or a burned region. This, Mr. Engel assures us, was the land of Eden 3 nor was it ever any more fruitful or attractive than it is to-day. One charm of the garden consisted in the contrast which it presented to the surrounding desolation. 'The Garden in Eden was simply the oasis which gradu- ally formed at the lowest point in this vast volcanic basin, and wihich is to-day called, by the Bedouin tribes, H Ruhbe, a word which, we are told, means a it wide, rich seed-ground. The four Paradise rivers are four torrents, which, during the rainy 1 Die gauze Vulkanregion, wovon die Harra den griissereu Thcil aus- macht, heisst dort ' die Gegend des schwarzen Steins!

This interpretation of the river which 4' went out of' Eden to water the garden, and from thence was parted, and became four heads, is the very apple of our author's eye. The 4' river is the entire mass of water, which, from rain or springs, finds its way during the wet season down the various slopes oi' the surrounding basin into thc oasis. Here it is all absorbed or evaporatedg but this is only a modern and Occidental way of looking at it. If we are good Orientalists we shall be able to turn our inner eye around, and, looking up at the surrounding water-sheds and at the two pairs of' chief to1'- rents, we shall say, U And from hence this all-surrounding and concentrated waterflow was parted, and became four heads. Pages on pages are expended upon this felicitous interpreta- tion of tl1e Paradise rivers, and upon the demonstration oi' the falsity of every other cxplanation.1 And does, then, our author actually believe that this deep swale in the heart of' the North Syrian desert, this depression which is sometimes fur weeks together under water, 4and which in the hot season is so singeing hot that all 'velrdtiiie dies, and the very stones around it explode with a loud 1'eport,,2+- does Mr. Engel actually believe that this was the cradle of the human race? W A Oh, no! at least he does not say so. It is simply the earliest seat of' the earliest ancestor oi' the Hebrews. Indeed, it is hardly that. It is rather the spot where some great religious poet belonging to the Hebrew people, and writing ages after Abraham, -if' there ever was an Abraham, - located the first scat of the 1 Thus he speaks of its strictly textual character : Dicser Textsinn ist gewonnen durch eine genetische Behandlung der Sache.

The description preserved to us in the second chapter of' Genesis is only a fragment of a di- dactic poem, written, it may be, in the days ot' Solomon, possi- bly in the days of Isaiah, by some great religious genius whose name nobody knows? To all appearance, it has, in our an- thor's mind, as little weight toward settling the question as to the primitive seat of the human race, as the Rime of the Ancient Mariner might have in settling the question ol' the tirst dis- coverer of the .Pacific Ocean? To all but the unbeliever-at-any-price, this H Solution ot' the Paradise Question will be very disappointing. Its interpreta- tion of Hebrew is arbitrariness itself. It nowhere alludes to the fact that traditions or myths of the Happy Garden are found in the religions of all the other ancient peoples. It no- where makes tributary to its argument the facts and theories 1 Die geographisehen und hydrograpliischen Angaben, well-he die Para- diesfrage hervorgerufen hahen, sind ein wesentlieher Bestandtheil dieser Quellensehrift.

It nowhere even attempts to connect NVest-Shemitie thought and tradition with that oi' the East- Shemitie Assyrians and Babylonians. He denies the probabil- ity that the writer of the H didactic poem had ever heard of the Euphrates oi' Mesopotamia. He not only rationalizes away supernatural features by reducing the Edenic Cherubim to I-Iauranie volcanoes, but also docs all manner of arbitrary violence to those portions ot' the sacred text which relate to natural things. Cain is, in his view, the same as Adam. The story oi' the clothing of the first pair with skins, grew out ol' the habit of' a North Syrian tribe oi' gazelle hunters, who, to this day, wear skins. The two wives oi' Lamach, Adah and Zillah, were two rocky ridges of hills, whose modern names are Adscha and Selma. Enoch, who walked with God, was a figment of the imagination, - an abstraction :representing one-quarter part of the Egyptian Sothis period. I-lis H translation to heaven was simply the snpersession oi' the Egyptian time-reckoning by a new system?

The names of Cain's sons fGen. iv. 18j are names of lnountains and particular localities. Naamah, the sister ot' Tubal-Cain, is the oasis Oncise, both names signi- fying the lovely. The Umar-k set upon Cain, by which Gvcry one should know him, was his singular clothing, his gazelle-skin clothing. The confusion of human language at the tower of Babel consisted simply of' the rise of dialeetic dit'- ferences among the Cainites in consequence ot' some invasion of their primitive home in Northern Syria. Abraham's bosom is the oasis Ruhbe, while Dives's place of torment was the water- less volcanic northern edge ot' it, et ceterct, et cetera. To a believer in the canons ot' sane historic investigation and criti- cism, the only value which this strange production possesses, is found, first, inthe illustration which it gives ot' the imperish- able interest of the Eden problem, even to those who deny the historical character of the Bibleg and, second, in the new proof' it affords, that all attempts to solve the problem in this isolated audi micro-topographical method are predestined to perpetual failure. , The time for studies of such narrowness as tl1is is past. The problem of the original home of the human race is not barely a question of Hebrew exegesis,-it is a race-problem. Every ancient people had an ancestral line running straight back to the primeval home of undistributed humanity. Each of these peoples l1ad sacredly preserved traditions of the events of that far-oft' morning-time of the world,-traditions so full ot' resemblances that it is impossible not to ascribe to them a common origin. In attempting to locate the primitive home of the race, therefore, the comparative method of investigation is the only one from which solid results can be expected. And, as in the interpretation of the mysterious land-marks enumerated in Gen. ii. 10-14, all scholarship and all exeget- ical ingenuity have confessedly been baflled, we must conclude that key, to a correct understanding of them is to be sought outside. 'of -the record, and that it can nowhere so appropriately and 'hopefullyibe sought as in the consentient traditions of the earljf'p'eb'ples, ot' the world. But, as demonstrated beyond contradiction in the pages of Paradise Found, these oldest i 26 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. ethnic traditions everywhere point the searcher for the cradle of humanity, not to Mesopotamia, nor U Limuria, nor Ar- menia, nor Pamir., nor Syria, but to a primeval 't mountain of the world in the highest North, - a land of light, the start- ing-point of all sublunary life, the navel of the earth, the Atlantis of the Egyptian priests, the Atlas-station of the Greeks, the Nysa ofthe Dionysia, the Tulan or Tollan of the Toltecs, the Tula of the Lenapi, the Thule of the Romans, the Avalon of the Kclts. In some instances, the evidences of this fact are curiously if not comically embarrassing to the advocates of new hypotheses respecting the cradle of humanity, or respecting the origin of the Paradisaie tradition. For striking illustrations of this last statement, it is only necessary to refer to the recently published theories of E. Beau- vois, and Abbe Brasseur de Bourbourgg the former relating to the Paradise ideas of the Kelts, and the latter to those of the prehistoric tribes of Mexico and Central America. In his learned papers entitled L'EIys6e Tmnsatlaintique, and L'Eclen Occidemalf the first of these writers has brought together a most interesting and valuable mass of materialrillus- trative of the beliefs of the different branches of the .Keltic family, touching the Earthly Paradise. Without dogmatically asserting it, he suggests that the Grmco-Roman ideas of an Elysium at the ends of the earth, of the Islands of the Blessed in or beyond the Atlantic Ocean, of Ogygia the Eden-like isle of Kalypso, of the land of the Fountain of Youth, and so on, were all borrowed from this widespread people, who, in the march ot' nations into Europe, preceded the ancestors of both those classic peoples, and at the dawn of historic times were found Echelormd along the shores of the Atlantic from Celtiberia to the British Isles? But whence did the Kelts themselves derive them? To this question also, M. Beauvois gives no dog- matic answerg but he everywhere suggests that the historic basis of all these traditions is to be sought in an early acquaintance 1 Published in the Revue de Vhistoirc des Religions. Paris, 1883. pp. 273- 318, 673-727. 2 ln a note to p. 274, M. Beauvois seems very plainly and strongly to intimate, that, in his opinion. the whole classic pantheon originated on this west coast of Europe, among the Keltic tribes.

This Western World of ours was their sacred isle of Avalon, their Tir na n-Og QLand of perpetual Youthj, Tir na m-Beo QLand of the Living Onesj , Mag Mell QField of Delightsj, Flaith Innis Qlsle of' Heroesj, Tir Tairngire fLand of Promisej. And from all accounts of the beauty and fertility of these Paradisaic regions he feels compelled to conclude that those prehistoric voyagers not only reached America, but also explored it far down into the inter-tropical regions, seeing with their own eyes the gor- geous flowers and spontaneous fruits which gave such marvellous color and exuberance to their descriptions of the country, as these lived on in later legends. The tirst embarrassment experienced by our author in ex- pounding this general theory is met at the very threshold, where the attempt is made to identify Hesiod's and Plutarch's Sacred Isle of Saturn with Mag Mell. Somehow the due West loca- tion of' America will not fit the classic description at all. This uncompromisingly fixes the Saturnian isle in the North, high in the Oronian Sea? Moreover, according to all accounts, it was not a land of ordinary days and nights, such as we have here in America, but, on the contrary, a region of almost continuous light, -a land which, as he himself' says, corresponds to Pliny's and Mela's Ultima Thule, where at the time of the summer sol- stice there were for six months no nights at 1111.8 What can be done? There seems to M. Beauvois to be no relief from difficulty in interpreting these and other references to Saturn and his isle, until one goes more than a thousand miles due North from Ire- 1 1 Pages 720-727. 2 Son ile, qui dans cette categorie de legendes est aussi celle des Bien- heureux, devait Gtre dans la mer de Saturne, le Mare Cranium, partie sep- tentrionale de 1'0c6an Atlantique.

The agitations and labored breath- ings of the god on awakening from his dreams, are a mythological expression of the rumblings of the earth beneath the crater of Hecla or under the intermittent volcano of the Jan-Mayen islc.2 This outcome, so contrary to the demands of his theory, evi- dently troubles M. Beauvois. He admits that he cannot ima- gine how the Kelts should have been led to locate their Paradise, their Fortunate Islands, their Elysium, in islands so frozen and sterile and hyperborean. But, like a good advocate, he draws from the admitted facts such comfort as he can, saying, that, inasmuch as it would never have occurred to more southerly peoples to do so strange a thing, the fact that, according to Pindar and Theopompos, the Greeks also placed their Elysium in the extreme North, must be taken as conclusive proof that the Greeks accepted of Keltie ideas on this subject at a very early period! A far more reasonable inference would have been, that the ancestors of each people once lived in a Pre- Glacial Arctic Eden of more than tropical luxuriance, and that 1 Il fSyllaJ croyait que c'etait au-dela de la mer Cronienne, par conse- quent dans 1' ile Jean Mayen fp. 2795 compare also p. 281 and 278D. 2 Nous croyons comprendre que 1'autre avec son rocher rutilant est simplement le cratere de l'I-lekla.

ALL ROADS LEAD T0 TIIULE. 29 each people, like all other ancient nations, had preserved in their traditions indistinct but unmistakable reminiscences of that earlier and happier abode. In no part of his exposition is M. Beauvois any more success- ful in establishing his view. Granting all that he claims as to the long voyages ot' Keltic navigators in thehmiddle agesg granting their discovery and colonization of America, before Columbus was born 5 1 granting that his citations from Irish, Gaelic, Kym- ric, and other Keltic sources, are all correct representations of Keltic ideas, - after every concession, there is not tl1e slightest proof given, or attempted to be given, that these tribes either originally came from America, or that they had even visited America before they formed their Iirst ideas ol' an Earthly Para- dise. On the other hand, a believer in the polar origin of man- kind ean ask no better reading than these elaborate papers present. Everywhere shimmering through the fanciful but transparent adornments of the traditions, he sees the unmistak- able landmarks of that primitive polar Paradise. In page after page he meets the ever-recurring ideas that this enchanting land is at H the extremity of the earth, that it is the navel ot' the seag that there 4' one day is a year or an ageg that it is the land in which is the world-tree, around which the sun- bird circles 3 that it is the region where stands the H colossal Silver Pillar, whose head is lost in the clouds, and which is noth- ing less than that great axis ot' the world which Plato calls the H Spindle of Necessity, 4' brighter than the rainbow, and which Scyrnnos ot' Chios, long before thc Christian era, said was called the ' Bom-:AL Cor.UMN,' and was located at the extremity ot' the country of the Kelts. 2 Evidently all these indices point, not to our American Atlantic coast, but to Plato's Arctic kingdom of Atlas, in the centre of Atlas's Sea, where 1 La decozwerte du.

Not less striking and significant are the difiiculties encoun- tered by the learned Abbe Brasseur de Bourbourg, in his at- tempt to demonstrate the true location of the cradle of the human race from the traditions and literature of' the Mexican and Central American aborigincs. First, a word respecting the man. Even before his life-work was finished, and before the publication of what he considered his crowning literary monument, it was said of him, by as good an authority in his own field as Daniel G. Brinton, M.D., The Abbe is the most learned living writer concerning the ancient things of America. 1 The praise was none too high. In Europe his works were welcomed and reviewed by such schol- ars as Professor Max Miiller, and others of the very first rank. His private collection of books, manuscripts, hieroglyph-copies, maps, relics, etc., relating to Indian mythology, tradition, and 1 From an article on the Abbe, by Dr. Brinton, published in Lryapincotfs Magazine, vol. i., Phil. 1868. Charles Edward Brasseur was born in 1814, in the Flemish village of Bourbourg, near Dunkirk. NVhen a boy of ten a stray copy of the Journal des Savanls fell in his way. In it there was a brief sketch of some of the ruins of Palenque in Central America, with speculations as to their origin. This was to his boyish soul what the lays of Horner were to the youthful Schliemann. He cherished the wild dream that it was for him to unlock the mystery of those wonderful works of an unknown past. Just at this thne all Europe was in joyous excitement over Champollion's success in deciphering.the long battling hieroglyphs of Egypt, and this roused his ambition the more. His powers and scholar- ship attracted the attention of his teachcrsg he was called into the service of the Church, and thoroughly educated. In 1845, after induction into holy orders, he was sent to Quebec, and was allowed to advance himself in English and other studies in Boston. Here, the perusal of l'rescott's new work on the Conquest of Mexico fired his zeal afresh. The next year he returned to Europe, went to Rome, and then gave himself to diligent studies until the outbreak of the revolution in 1848. Then, as alxncner of the French legatlon, he again visited the United States, and commenced those explorations and studies of Mexico and Central America and their antiquities which became his life-work. As administrator of the Indians at Rablnal, he resided for several years in Guatemala, learning meantime, in a. thorough manner, the Nahualt and other aboriginal languages. In the former he was taught by a University professor, who was a descendant of a brother of Montezuma. For fuller details of his active life, the reader is referred to the chatty autobiographic prefaces prefixed to his diffei-eng works.

At the time of his recent death, he was probably regarded the world over as the most eminent and able of that class of archaeologists and antiquarians known in Europe as Americanists. I-Iis last great work was his H Four Letters upon Mexico. 1 In this he claims to have unlocked the profound symbolism of the ancient hicroglyphies of Mexico, and to have found the Cradle of the Human Race. On the basis of indigenous texts, he sets forth the theory that this cradle was in Central America, and that from this centre, in the world's morning, the first pio- neer settlers of Egypt and Asia and Europe went forth. To him, therefore, the New World was older than the Old. t In fuller form his doctrine is, that originally the American con- tinent was almost twice as large as at present. It filled all the space now covered by the vast Gulf' of Mexico, the Caribbean Sea, and adjacent portions of' the Atlantic Ocean. It reached far out toward the west coast of Africa and Europe. It was the Atlantis of Plato. All parts were Eden-like, but the pre-emi- nently Paradisaic centre' was the primitive capital-city, Tollan 01' Tulan, situated-as the Abbe believed -to the south-east of Mexieof in the region now covered by the Caribbean Sea, not far from the inner shore of the Antilles? In one of the great geologic catastrophes of' the early world, all this immense tract was volcanically upheavedg then, in the sudden collapse, sunken and submerged beneath the waters of the ocean. Echoes of, the stupendous disaster live on in Plato, and in the 1 Quatre Leltres sur le Mcatique .' Exposition absolue du Systeme hierogly- phique mexicaing la Fin de l'Age dc Pierre.

Such is the theory, and fascinating was the enthusiasm with which through hundreds of pages he devoted himself to its elaboration and illustration. ' To a believer in a primeval Arctic Eden the result is full of interest. In a field where the traditions of prehistoric times 'arc so confused, as they confessedly are in the case of the Aztecs, one must not expect too mucl1. Mr. H. H. Bancroft has warned us against that? But, on the other hand, when it is an enthu- siastic advocate of a south-eastern Caribbean Paradise, who, in his descriptions, repeatedly brings out points which evidently and of 'necessity belong to a north-polar one, the force of the evidence is signally enhanced. In H Paradise Found, in the chapter on t' The Quadrifurcate River, striking facts are adduced, sl1owing that many peoples, in their traditions, mark the spot of their earliest home, by connecting it with the spot where the divine river descending from heaven, divides, parting into four earthly rivers for the watering of the whole earth. It is at least an interesting fact, that, in the traditions ofthe prehistoric Americans, the mother- region ofthe human race was also precisely at 'f the place where the waters in falling divide. The strangeness of the expres- sion leads our learned guide to devote a foot-note to itg but he declares himself uncertain as to whether it if can -be under- 1 The migration of the Aztecs is described much more fully than that of the tribes that preceded them: but in the details of this journey, so far as dates, names, and events are concerned, the traditions are inextricably confused .... We have no means of determining in a manner at all satis- factory, whether Aztlan and Chicomoztoc were in Central America, or in the region of Zacatecas and Jaliscog nor indeed of proving that they were not in Alaska, New Mexico, or on the Mississippi . . . The record, as a whole, is exactly what might be expected were the traditions of half a, dozen kindred bands respecting their wanderings about the central plateau, and efforts to establish themselves in permanent homes, united in one con- secutive narrativeg and I have little doubt that such was substantially the process by which the Spanish version of the Aztec migration was formed. . . .

So the beautiful significance of the passage to one acquainted with the Sacred Ilydrograpliy of the oldest Asiatic and Europe- an tradition, is entirely lost to the advocate of this Caribbean Paradise? Again, our Abbe associates H the primitive Mexico with Atlas's Pillar, with the Navel ofthe Earth, with the Head-spring of all the world's Waters, and with the H Tree of the WVorld. 2 But the primitive connection of all these with the North Pole has been irreiiitably demonstrated in the pages of ff Paradise Found. Many other incidental evidences ofthe naturalness and neces- sity of a north-polar interpretation of the Abb6's traditions could be given g but, for lack of space, three only will be adduced. And, first, the author admits that all the most competent and serious writers, in accord with all the traditions, unanimously locate the traclitionary Paradise, not to the 'F South-east, in the direction of the Antilles, but in a region far to the North of Mexico.

If the Toltec and Chichimec Paradise is under the surface of the Caribbean Sea, how could the descend- ants of these peoples ever have come to place it far in the North? The only relief tl1at occurs to the author is to suggest, that possibly, after the great cataclysm which sunk the happy region, the old antediluvian names H might have been given to certain localities in the countries ot' the North? A second fact of striking significance in this conectionis, that the oldest Mexican traditions seem to have preserved the remembrance of that six-months' absence ot' the sun which would have characterized the first abode ot' man, if located at the Pole. In his earlier works, the Abbe has repeatedly referred to the strange story in the creation myths about the long absence of the sun, and about the sacrifices which had to be offered, before he would return and display himself to the vision of the early inhabitants of the earth? And so im- pressed with it was he when translating the, Popol Vuh, that, in one ot' his learned footnotes, he speaks ot' the high antiquity of the mysterious tradition, and says that it seems to refer to 4' a long darkness, perhaps to a night .several months in duration? Where could this primeval experience have been had, save in a polar cradle of the race? Moreover, it' man's first vision of the sunrise was from the standpoint ot' the pole, the true tradition ot' that experience, like that of the Northmcn,' would have associated tl1e grand event, not witl1 the East, as we of lower latitudes do, but with the South. the preface to his translation of the Popol Vuh, he places it in the very highest latitudes: Situ 'e aux latitudes les plus septentrionales du conti- nent Cp. lxiv.J. Moreover, he makes this particular name of the Mexican Paradise etymologically signify Land of the Aurora fQuatr'e Lettres, p. 11115 and, in the most northern latitudes of the continent, this could only mean the eircumpolar home of the Aurora boreali.-1. 1 Bien qu'a la suite du eataclysrne, los noins aient pu etre donnes aux eontrees voisines du Nord tp. 1107. 2 See his Ilistoirc des Nations civilisdes du Mexique et de l'Am61'ique cen- trale durant les siec es antefricur Zz Christophe Colomb.

A ALL ROADS LEAD T0 THULE. 35 Singularly enough, in Aztec tradition this is found to have been the case? Most discouraging of all to a would-be believer in the Abbe 's theory is a third fact, which he does not conceal, though it causes him evident embarrassment. It seems that in his Mexi- can Bible-Teo-Amoxtli-the Abbe iinds the record of a most unaccountable event following immediately upon the heels Of the catastrophe by which the cradle of the race was swal- lowed up. Despite the fact that his location of the primeval country is in the torrid zone, not far from the equator, he assures us, that, right over the boiling lava-streams and volcanic craters and seething water-floods which effected its destruction, there suddenly spread itself, as if to quench the mighty subter- ranean fires, H a 'vast and brilliant 'mantle of Ion? D'oa 'venait cette glace? exclaims the astonished and perplexed antiquarian. if Whence camethis Ice? Sure enough. Who can wonder that the question forces it.- Selt' upon him. Bravely, though briefly, he wrestles with the ditllculty. He wonders whether so grand a convulsion at the equator might not detach some of the ice in the high North, and fioat it down over the steaming wreck ot' his Caribbean Para- dise. He glances hastily to the far-off ice-zone of the South. Frankly he confesses his helplessness. He can Uafllrm noth- ing. I-Ie re-asserts the fact that the great Ice-sheet is an unquestionable and essential feature of the story, but leaves it with the ejaculation, Il is for the geologists to jind out the rest Q15 8 1 He CGemelli Carrcrij then goes on to state that the Mexicans believed the sun or light first appeared in the South Wrofessor Cyrus Thomas in Notes on Maya and Mexican Manuscripts, in Third Annual Rtqoort of the .llureau of Elhnolngy.

C'cst aux X 36 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. How instantaneously and perfectly is this whole mystery solved, the moment one is put in possession of' the fact that tl1e Cradle of the Human Race was at the North Pole, in a country which was submerged at the time of' the Deluge, and covered by the ff vast and brilliant ice-sheet, brought on by the there- witl1 connected Glacial Age! The traditions of' the frozen seas, and the traditions of the long-absent sun, and the traditions that the first sunrise was in the South, and tl1e traditions that the original home of the race was in the far North, are at once harmonized, not only with each other, but also witl1 the order of nature from which they arose. They are furthermore con. firmcd by the oldest traditions of all tl1c most ancient peoples of' the Old World,-which Old World traditions in turn support and veritfy these of' the New World. These facts of' the Central-American traditions, it should be remembered, are not the discovery of' a special plcader for a polar Paradise, on the contrary, they are the independent and unwelcome findings of a special pleader for a Paradise hard by the blazing equator. A better guaranty of their reality as facts, is hardly conceivable. Their real significance is so appar- cnt, that, in a passage in one of his earlier works, Brasscur de Bourbourg himsclfonee came within a 11air's breadth ot' discern- ing and accepting the true explanation? The doctrine that the mother-region of the human race was geologues a trouver le reste.

It has been tested, and it has more than success- fully met the just requisitions of every order and class of schol- ars. It has found confirmations of the most striking character in every conceivable ficld of evidence. On careful examina- tion, supposed difficulties have turned out verifieations.

It has shown itself the supreme and inevitable generalization from all the facts of modern knowledge respecting man and the world. It has harmonized the oldest traditions of religion and the latest achievements of science.

Witliin the current year a new free scholarship has been es- tablished in the College of Liberal Arts, and a fine new Hall provided for the School of Theology. Further additions to the funds and appliances of the University are much needed. Thoroughly to equip the institution upon the plan and scale proposed, resources several times greater than any now pos- sessed or promised will be absolutely necessary. No depart- ment is as yet, by any means, adequately endowed. The Trustees cannot doubt that public-spirited men and women will gladly aid in creating the needed facilities. The spirit of co-operation already manifested 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 assurance that the highest hopes ofthe founders of the University 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 remembered, that with institutions, as with men, youth isa period of opportuni- ties inestimably preeiousg that many of these, if not imp1'oved at the time, are forever lost. The opportunities opening before this youthful University are unparalleledg but, without early additions to its pecuniary resources, some exceedingly import- ant ones will have to pass unused.

The aim of this College is to give that liberal education which is the true preparation for the study of a learned profes- sion, or for a life devoted to letters, ledncacion, or public affairs.

Criticism of sentences as 'to correctness. The theme, according to the year, will be taken from one of the following works : - ' For 1886.--Shakspere's Julius Caesar, and Macbeth, lirst two books of Milton's Paradise Lostg Dickens's Tale of Two Cities, Scott's Abbotg P0pe's Rape of the Loekg J. R. Lowell's Vision of Sir Launfalg Gold- 8IHli.l1'S She Stoops to Conquer. For 1887. -SlIakspere's Julius Caesar, and Merchant of Veniceg .Iohn- son's Lives of Milton and Drydeng Macaulay's Essays on Milton and Dryden, Milton's Paradise Lost, Books I. and II.g Dryden's Alexander's Feastg Scott's Quentin Durwardg 1rving's Bracebridge Hall.

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 the language correctly. To prepare for these examinations, the pupil should be accustomed, from the beginning of the preparatory course, to translate into Latin and Greek.. both orally and in writing, passages prepared by the teacher, on the basis of the p1'ose authors read. Satisfactory certificates from the principals of high schools 54 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. and academies of good standing will exempt the candidate from examination in arithmetic, physics, ancient history, and geography. Division or 'run ICXAMINATIONS. Candidates for admission may pass the entrance examinations at one time, or, il' 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 ftpreliininary examina- tion. Moreover, candidates-for admission to the preliminary examination must produce certificates from their teachers attest- ing their fitness in given suhjectsg and no candidate will be examined in subjects not included .in the certificate of the teacher. The examinations are mainly in writingg and deficiencies in the legihility, spelling, or grammar of the students' papers, atiect the result of the examination. Specimens of recent examination-papers will be sent on application. An ability to recite one eration 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 x and y, i consonant the sound of y in yes. and to insist on the observance of the Greek accents and the quantity ot' the Latin vowels.

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. 4 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 festhetio culture is needed by every pro- fessional rnusiciang but it is best acquired, not before or after, but in connection with, his special studies. The lack of oppor- tunities for such acquisition has been the chief defect of some of the most famous music-schools of the world. I-Iad 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- 68 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR Book. 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 the 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 ot' 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 sure to be permanent, and probably also increas- ingly urgent. V ADMISSION. All candidates for admission must possess a thorough knowl- edge of the elementary principles of music, a correct ear, and a reasonable degree ot' skill in their chosen department. If candidates for the degree ot' Bachelor of Music, and not already possessed of a literary degree, they must also give satis- factory evidence by acceptable certificate, or by examination, that they have been well instructed in Qlj English Grammar, Rhetoric, and English Composition, Q25 English Literature, and its History, Q31 Outlines of Ancient and Modern History, the History of England, and History of the United States, Q41 Arithmetic, Algebra to quadratics, and Elementary Geometry, Q51 Physics, and three of the following sciences: Geography, Geology, Botany, Human Physiology, Chemistry, and Astrono- my, Q6j Sight-reading of easy Latin prose, Q72 Sight-reading of easy French, German, or Italian prose, Q85 Mental Philos- ophy, and Q93 Moral Science. 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 with the different kinds of touch, rapidity and clearness in the execution of allethe major, minor, and chromatic scales, and of the arpeggios of COLLEGE OF MUSIC. 69 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 fliiilowj, Books 1 and 23 or Cle- menti's Gradus ad Parnassumu fTausig editionjg Bach's Two- and Three-Part Inventionsgn Moscheles, p. 703 Mflyelk Op. 119, Book 15 Bach's French and English Suites, Kullak's Octaves, Op. 495 pieces by Chopin, Schumann, Men- delssohn, and others: Beethoven's sonatas. Applicants for instruction in organ-playing must be able to harmonize a choral in four parts, and to pass a satisfactoi-y examination in the following, or real equivalents: Rink's Organ School, first five booksg Buck's Studies in Pedal Phrasingg Lemmen's Organ School, part second 3 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 extempore playing, accompaniments for solo and chorus singing. 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 teclmicalities of' the instruments, and an ability to play the easier works of the masters. Persons desiring information as to the best and most econom- ical method of fitting themselves for the College are invited to correspond with the Dean. COURSES OF INSTRUCTION. The regular courses of instruction are as follows : - I. Counsn Fon VOCAI.ISTS. II. COURSE Fon PIANISTS. III. COURSE Fore ORGANIS1'S. IV. Counsns ron Oncm:s:ruAL PERFORMERS. All of these courses include the study of' musical theory, also the history and msthetics of music. The course for vocalists 70 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. 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 when- ever appointed. The methods of instruction employed are such as most rap- idly advance the pupilg 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 before the pupils for stndyg and the entire course of instruction is arranged with a view to secure the highest standard of taste, and an appreciation of the true relation of music to the other arts and sciences. SPECIAL FACILITIES. Students entering the College at the commencement ot' 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 which the pupils are required to take partg and, in addition to this, the opportunity is afforded them to attend the lectures and sight-singing classes of tl1e New-England Conservatory of Music, and to perform at its weekly concerts. The opportunities for culture outside of the institution in Boston are so well known, that it is hardly necessary to enu- merate them. During the concert season, miscellaneous con- certs by foreign and resident artists, chamber, symphony, and oratorio concerts, are of almost daily occurrence: and the Ger- man, Italian, and English opera-troupes usually spend several 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. I COLLEGE OF MUSIC. 71 The Boston Public Library and the Library of the New-Eng- land Conservatory of Music furnish a collection of ten thousand volumes relating to music, to which students have free access. CHARGES. Pianoforte, organ, or voice, including composition and lec- tures, in class of' four, 35200 per year, in class of three, t5250g in class of two, 35350.

An examination-fee of 853 is charged on admission, and 310 for examination and diploma or degree at graduation. ' GRADUATION . In most cases three years will be suflieient 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 of any college of' liberal arts, receive the degree of Bachelor of Musicg if not graduates of a college of liberal arts, they will be required to pass an ex- amination in Logic, and in two oi' the following works, Q15 Marcl1's Latin Hymnsg Q21 Goethe's Faust, Erster Theilg fill Racine, four playsg f4j Dante's Divina Comedia, one part, before being eligible to the above degree.

The regular course includes every branch of ordinary farming and gardening, and is both theoreti- cal and practical. Each topic is thoroughly discussed in the lecture-room, and again in the plant-house or field, where every student is obliged to work. The amount of' required work,l1ow- ever, is limited, in order that it may not interfere with study. Students are allowed to do additional work, provided they main- tain the necessary rank.as scholars.

The only other college expenses are small, and occur but once in the entire course: such as, for furnishing a room, from S525 to 5650 3 and for diploma of the College, 353. Candidates for graduation in Boston University are charged a matriculation fee of 855, and a graduation fee of 355. But, il' not paid on or before the twentieth qf May in the Senior year, these charges are doubled. Indigent students are allowed to do such work as may offer about the public 01' farm buildings, or in the fieldg but it is hardly possible for one to earn more than from S50 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 1'easons, desire to engage in. - The State Board of Agriculture have unanimously voted that every Agricultural Society receiving the bounty ofthe Common- wealth be urged to maintain at least one scholarship at the Col- l0ge, and to secure the attendance ot' one or more students. The Trustees also have voted to establish one free scholarship for each of' the eleven congressional districts ot' the 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 these scholarships to the senator of his district.

Twenty years later it was removed to Boston, where from 1867 till 1871 its legal name was H The Boston Theologi- cal Seminary. In thc latter year it was incorporated into the University, and became its lirst department. lNS'l'RUUTION. With respect to methods ot' instruction, it is the aim of' the Faculty to secure thc greatest possible frcslmess and variety consistent with scientific system and thoroughness. Accord- ingly, while a faithful use ot' the best books oi' 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. Whenever a branch of science, or a portion oi' 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 of' these, the professors will not shrink from thc additional labor which such methods neces- sarily involve. In several branches, privately printed lectures are issued to thc classes. - THE SCHOOL OF THEOLOGY. 91 REGULAR THREE-YEARS' COURSE. Fuzsr YEAR.

ELECTIVE STUDIES . With the consent of the respective Deans, any student in the School of Theology may attend upon the instruction in any class in the College of Liberal Arts without charge. This con- sent must be procured before commencing such attendance, and attendance without previous enregistration for the study works a, forfeiture ofthe privilege. Students availing themselves of this offer must also be regular in attendance, and pass all required examinations i11 the work undertaken. ' The Evidcnces of Christianity. --This course is of especial value and interest to students of theology. Ethics, and the History of Christian Ethics. -This and the preceding are given by the Dean of the College of Liberal Arts. Philosophy. -The courses in Psychology, Metaphysics, His- tory of'1'hilosophy, Philosophy ot'Theism, Logic, and Philosophy of Ethics, have proven very attractive and useful. All of these courses are given by Professor Borden P. Bowne. A German.. --Beginners have free instruction in this language in the College oi' Liberal Arts. Advanced students enjoy the opportunity of' reading German Theology with Professor Cramer three times a week without charge. Spanish.-To students preparing to labor among Spanish- Aincrican populations, free instruction is furnished in the Span- ish language. Several have been appointed in Mexico and South America. Assyrian.-The coming year, suitable candidates will be admitted lo a bi-weekly course oi' instruction in Assyrian, to be given by 1'roi'essor Mitchell. Other Shemitic Languages.-The same professor will also instruct any who may have time and suitable qualifications to take up the study of Arabic, Syriac, Biblical Chaldee, Talmudic Hebrew, and Sainaritan. 'A Music.-All students desirous of improving in the art of singing or in the science of music receive, free of charge, an THE SCHOOL OF TIIEOLOGY. 93 elementary course of -instruction in the New-England Conserva- tory of' Music. They are also furnished with free tickets to the frequent oratorio rehearsals, concerts, and lectures of the Conservatory. Vocal and Oratorical Culture.-Elocutionary lectures with required drill exercises are maintained in each class tlcroughout the year. Students desiring private instruction in addition are enabled to secure it at especially favorable rates. fSee 'i School of All Sciences. j Medical Lectures.-Students preparing for missionary ser- vice can attend medical lectures free of expense. FOUR-YEARS' COURSE. Candidates who for any cause satisfactory to tl1e Faculty desire to take four years for the accomplishment of' the regular undergraduate work ot' the School, or who with the approval of the Faculty desire to combine with that work such an amount of study in the College ot' Liberal Arts, or School of' All Sciences, as would render a fourth year necessary, will be allowed to carry out their wishes without extra charge for tuition g also with free room the fourth year, provided there be vacancies in the rooms provided -for students ol' theology. This extension of time may be of great advantage to those who lack the first grade of prepara- tion, or who are necessitated by the cxigencies of sell'-support to preach during a large part of their course. Candidates labor- ing under both these disabilities are required to take the four years. MISSIONANY COURSE. Throughout a large part of' the year there is a weekly Mis- sionary Lecture by a member of the Faculty. This has been the practice for fifteen years past. The course covers, as fully as practicable, all the more important points in the Theory, History, and Practice of Christian Missions. As treated, the matter is equally important to future pastors and prospective missionaries. The Missionary Association ot' the School holds stated meet- ings to hear reports and original letters from former students and others in the various mission-fields, to pray for the increased 94 Bosrozv UNIVERSITY YEAR 'Booze success oi' missionary labor. to discuss questionseonneeted 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 enlarge the missionary instruction to a full three- years' course substantially as below. To its early establish- ment, friends of missions are invited to contribute by providing the necessary funds. Finsr YEAR.

THE SCHOOL OF THEOLOGY. 95 MISCELLANEOUS A DVANTAGES. Libraries. - Students enjoy access, without fee, to the follow- ing libraries: lst, The Library of the School, a collection of about 5,000 volumes, including a valuable missionary library. 2d, The Latimer Library, consisting of several thousand of the choicest theological and philosophical works in various lan- guages. It was collected by the Rev. James E. Latimer, S.T.D., late Dean of the School. Sid, The State Library. This contains over 30,000 volumes, and is increased some 2,000 volumes per annum. 4th, The Public Library of the Oily of Boston. This magnificent collection. the largest in America, contains over 400,000 volumes, of which a generous proportion relate to theology. There are tlllllllllllj' added to it some 10,000 bound volumes and 7,000 to 10,000 pamphlets. The General Theological Library. - This large and valuable collection has been removed to a new and commodious location in immediate proximity to Jacob Sleeper llall. For an annual lee of two dollars, it is open to theological students. Con- nected with it is a fine theological and religious reading-room. All denominations are represented both in the library and in the reading-room periodicals. Other Reading-Rooms.-fMembers oi' the School enjoy, fur- ther. the free use of' the following reading-rooms: lst, That of the School. well supplied with the issues of the American religious press. 2d, The Reading-Room of the Public Library. Here over four hundred issues of the periodical press, including all the leading theological and literary quarterlies, are regularly kept on file. They embrace not only all the leading periodicals of' America, but also a choice selection from the best English, French, German, Italian, Spanish. and Scandinavian ones. Egyptological Collection.-The W'ay Collection ot' Egyptian antiquities affords invaluable material for the illustration of this important field of biblical study. It is the property of the Trustees oi' the Museum of Fine Arts. Missiorzary Cabinets. -Through the courtesy ot' its curators, the ,Missionary Cabinet of the American Board of Commission- ers for Foreign Missions, the largest in America, is accessible toistudents in this School. A smaller one is in possession ofthe School itself. 96 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. . X l V V H Emtempore Speaking and Debate.--Exercise in extcmpore speaking and debate may be had weekly in connection with debating societies, etc. Opportunities for more directly minis- terial labor in supplying vacant pulpits, and the calls of the city missions, are constantly occurring. f - Gymnastics.-Students who feel the need of regular gym- nastic exercise can enjoy the facilities of thex best gymnasiums and drill-masters of the city at rates especially favorable. Free lectures on health, exercise, diet, etc., have often been given in the School. ,Pastoral Oonjerences, denominational or interdenominational, are held every Monday foreuoon in Wesleyan Hall, and at an hour at which 'all can attend. The Monrlany Lectureship. - All of Mr. Joseph Cook's Mon- day Lectures have been delivered within five minutes' walk of the School, and at an hour when the students were at liberty to be present. E The Lowell Institute. -- Among the lecture-courses presented annually by this institution, many are of great service to theo- logical students. All are free. Other Public Lectures.-'llhe attractions of a Boston lecture- season are well known. In the course of' three years the student easily finds opportunity to listen to nearly eve1'y distinguished American scholar, statesman, and orator, besides many noted visitors from other countries. Conversazioni. - The most prominent and successful clergy- men and orators of Boston and vicinity have repeatedly favored the students with familiar addresses and conversations on their personal experience, habits, etc., as public religious teachers. Of late years these addresses have occurred about once a month. Missionary Meetings, Christian Conventions, Benevolent So- ciety Anniversaries, etc., are held every year in this city, draw- ing together returned missionaries, distinguished pulpit-orators, and live Christian laborers from every quarter of the globe. These are advantages whose value to young ministers cannot well be over-estimated. i f l Religious Privileges. -- Regular morning and evening devo- tions are held throughout the scholastic year. There are also THE SCHOOL OF TIIEOLOGY. 97 stated prayer-meetings every week, and a class-meeting led by the professors in rotation. All of the principal churches of Boston are within convenient walking distance of the School, and each student is expected to connect himself with one of them. In the Sunday schools, missions, and social meetings of these churches, abundant opportunities for-Christian labor are found 5 while, on the other hand, the stated preaching and spiritual counsels of an experi- enced pastor can but prove f'ruitf'ul of' blessing to every candi- date for the high responsibilities ot' tl1e ministry. THE NEW H ALL. At the opening of the new year, Sept. 15, 1886, the School will occupy its new Hall, a few rods west of the State House. It is hoped that it will be possible to receive candidates coming from remote parts of the country on and after Sept. 11. Stu- dents who are strangers in Boston arc recommended to give their baggage-checks and orders to the Express agent who passes through the train before ils arrival, and at the station to hire a H Herdic Cfare twenty-five centsj, and ,proceed to the Hall, No. 72 Mozrozt Vernon Street. ADMISSION. All candidates for admission to the School of' Theology must produce satisfactory testimonials from their pastors, or others, touching their personal religious character.

' Candidates for admission to the First Division of an entering class must have received the degree of' Bachelor of Arts. For admission to the Second Division, candidates who have not been admitted to the degree of Bachelor of Philosophy or Bachelor of Science, or to an equivalent degree upon a course of study including the Greek language, must pass a written examina- tion in the studies required for admission to the Freshmen Class in the College of Liberal Arts, - with the exception of the French fsee above, pp. 46, 47j,-- and must show, that, by rea- 98 BOSTON -.

All persons desiring to enter the school by ea:a.minatz'on, must present themselves at 72 Mt. Vernon Street on Wednesday, Sept. 15, at nine o'clocIc A. iv. Those entitled to apply for rooms will secure some advantages in choice, by arranging beforehand for a roommate. and making application as early as practicable. No room will be reserved after the iirst day, except by special agreement. All students whose circumstances will allow them to obtain a. complete classical education before applying for admission are earnestly recommended to do so. The highest interests ot' the student, of the school, and of the churches, demand it. Applicants for admission to advanced standing must sustain a satisfactory examination in all the studies which the class have passed over, or present a certificate of honorable dismissal from some other theological institution in which the same or equivalent branches have been satisfactorily pursued. Young men or women who may be providentially debarred the privilege of pursuing the regular course in either division are allowed to take a special one of one or more years, accord- ing to their circumstances. In like manner, preachers engaged in the active work of the ministry, superintendents or teachers of Sunday schools,-inline, any persons deemed suitable by 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. A .By virtue of the arrangement in accordance with which the Trustees ol' the Boston Theological Seminary transferred their funds and trusts to the University, all candidates for the minis- try of the Methodist Episcopal Church in the regular course are given free tuition year by year, and the same or equiva- lent privileges with respect to rooms as were afforded by the Seminary. , All applicants for these free advantages are required topro- duce either alocal preacher's license, or a recommendation from x nl f-'THE scHo0L OF THEOLOGY. 99 some Quarterly Conference after the following form : ff We, the members of' the Quarterly Conference of'--Station for Cir- cuitj, do hereby certify that-- is, in ourjudgment, called of' God to the work of tl1e ministryg and we cordially recommend him as a suitable person to be received as a student in the School of' Theology ot' 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 comibrt, with the exception of' bed-linen, towels, and rugs. For apartments of the same description, the hotels charge from one to two or three dollars a day. 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. Favored 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 352.60 a week. This reduces tl1e expense of' hoard for the entire scholastic year to less than 3100. For the present the University is able to fbllow the example of the Seminary, and extend these free advantages to the can- 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. p CHARGES. The annual charges for regular students in the School of Theology are, for tuition fwhen not remitted, or provided for as abovej, 3F50,one-hall' in advance: for heating, lighting, and care of public rooms. 310.

Students who need assistance can usually receive loans to the amount of S100 a year from diflerent education societies. In- formation can be obtained by addressing the Rev. D. P. Kidder, D.D., Corresponding Secretary of' the Board ot' Education of the Methodist-Episcopal Church, 805 Broadway, N.Y., or the Secretary of any of its local auxiliaries in the different Confer- ences.

There is also a small Loan Fund by which a few others can annually be aided. 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 an- thorities. In 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. Q Tun sOHOOL OF THEOLOGY. 101 GRADUATION .

' All persons proposing to study law as. a profession are ear- nestly recommended to complete a course of liberal studies in some college before entering this School. ,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 of the honorable completion of an Aeademical or High School course will be deemed sum- cient for admission to the Junior Class. Students from other Law Schools are admitted to this on producing satisfactory testimonials as to the ,work Idonegxand character sustained, in such schools. .AEMVJXVYQ I Persons wishing a knowledge of legal principleshfor,businvess THE SCHOOL OF LA W. 109 purposes, but not intending 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 all, and those desiring to enter for advanced standing must pro- duce satisfactory certificates of' their previous study. Those just commencing the study of the law can be admitted with advantage only at or near the commencement of the Octo- ber term. Others are admitted at any time 3 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. - 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 draughting contracts, conveyances, pleadings, indictments, and other legal papers, the criticism of briefs and arguments in moot courts, courses of' reading, etc. Although the aim of' all the instruction is to teach a knowl- edge of principles, rather than of mere cases, 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 tl1e law, -as, Coggs v. Bernard, Lickbar- row 'v. Mason, Pasley 'v. Freeman, etc., and the student will be frequently called upon to state the facts and results of such cases before the School, and in the examination-papers. It is also sought so to combine the teaching of' the theoretical prin- ciples and doctrines of the law, with their practical application 110 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. to actual cases as they arise in the present business atiairs of the community, as to Ht the student, in a measure, to act upon a given case, and know what Ito 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 length, betbrc the full School, and to discuss the principles involved, and the authorities bearing on the same. 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 the Dean, the most satisfactory of' which will be permanently suspended on the walls of the library or other rooms. Examinations in at least ten subjects will be held at the close of' the school-year, and each regular student will be required to pass the examination given in the studies of his year, if the result of the examination upon any subject is not satisfactory, the student will be required to submit to another examination in such subject at tl1e opening of the following school-year. Each student must pass the exami- nation of the Junior Class before he can be enrolled in the Mid- dle Classg and likewise pass those of the Middle Class before being enrolled as a Senior. Members of the Middle Class, who have attended the year previous, may re-attend any of the lec- tures of the first year without charge, but are not entitled to attend those of the third year. Subject to slight variations from year to year, the distribution of topics will be as f'ollows:- A ' ' I ' 5' T . , TUE sc11ooL OF LA W. 111 FIRST 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 an office, and then take their iinal examinations, and, if' suc- cessful, may graduate as if they had attended three full years in the School.

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 practice, 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 Law Department is located in the Law School Building, No. 10 Ashburton Place, near the State House, City Hall, 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 eases, 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 H Great and General Court -is usually in session from the first week in January tiil 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 University. This is situatcdlin the same building with the School. and consists of aevernlithousand volumes, including the most important Law Reports,.English and American, and the most approved text- 114 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. books. The eifort will be to make and keep it, by yearly addi- tions, a model working library for students. It is open for the purpose 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. Qilj 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 ot' American law. Students should apply to the Dean for a letter to the State Librarian. Q35 The Public Library of the City of Boston. This is the largest library in America. The collection numbers 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 oi' 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 first obtain a NoN-REsI- DnN'r's card at the Library, and procure the same to be counter- signed by the Dean ot' the Law School. The Reading-Room of the Public Library is open without charge. All the leading professional, scientific, and literary periodicals of' America and Europe are here taken. The selec- tion numbers between four and five hundred. Q4j Students who are membecs 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 office 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. , M 'lil i I THE. sczloon OF LA W. 115 Moor courvrs, CLUBS, ETC. 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 of 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 ot' 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 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 Qsee p. 201. ' GRAD UATION. 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 oilice. An examination-fee ot' ten dollars must be enclosed with the application. No examina- tion of any student will be commenced until such application is filed g but any student failing to pass the required examination in any year may present himself' for examination at asubse- 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 himsell' 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 ot' 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 aye, and pursued the 116 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. study of the law, unless in exceptional cases, three full years, one of which at least must have been in this Law School ,' and if only one year in'this School, a written certificate of two years' study elsewhere will be required 3 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 Bailmentsj, Bills and Notes, Contracts, Criminal Law, Equity, Evidence, Pleading, Real Property, Sales, Torts. The examinations of the J unior Class in the studies of that year, if satisfactory, will be ac- cepted in those branches as sufiicient for graduation, and tl1e same rule will apply to the examinations of' the Middle Class. But students who have not passed such preliminary examina- tions satisfhctorily will be examined in the studies of tl1e entire course. Each examination-paper contains at least ten ques-l tions. Ten perfect answers count one hundred 5 and, in order to pass a satisfactory examination, an average of sixty-six andy two-thirds at least is necessary in the whole examination, and sixty at least in each topic, 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 granled 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, il' personally present at commencement, receive the degree of Bachelor of Laws. Candidates who, in their final examinations, attain eighty-five per cent, will be enrolled in the Honor Listg and this distinction will be noted in the diploma by the words Cum Laude. An average of ninety per cent entitles a student to a Mag1za Cum Laude. Ninety-five per cent, to a Summa Cum Laude. The requisites for the degree of LL.B. are,- 2 lst, A faithful study of the law for at least threeiyearsxl l i Qd, Satisfhctory note- books of all the required studies 'of the course.

One of these is nominated by the classg the other, with more particular ref'crence to scholarship, by the Faculty of the School 5 and both must be confirmed by the University Council.

ALL CIIARGES Fon INSTRUCTION MUST BE PAID EACH TERM IN ADVANCE, on A BOND GIVEN, WITH SATISFACTORY SURETIES, TO PAY TIIE SAME BEFORE THE END or EACII TERM. The only other charges are one of S510 for elocution fwhich study is optionalj, and, on graduation, one of 3510 for examina- tion, the cost of the diploma, and commencement expenses. No fees paid or secured are returned O11 account of inability of the student to attendg but, if' a whole term is thus lost, a free ticket to the lectures of the corresponding term of the next year will be given. Any student leaving during tl1e year must at the time notify tl1e Registrar in writing: otherwise he will be charged the tuition-fee for the entire year. The expenses oi' a student for board, room, washing, etc., need 1105 exceed 35200 to 35300 per scholastic year. Good board is furnished to clubs at 353.50 per week, and rooms may be had for S3 a week, and upwards, for two persons. Many young men obtain situations in lawyers' ofliees, evening-schools, or are otherwise able to do something toward their own support. As there are 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 the lectures with convenience. To such, most of the railroads offer reduced rates, upon the certificate of the Dean or Registrar as to Inernbership. CALENDAR. First Term commences Wednesday, Oct. 6, and closes Dee. 22, 1886.

The length of' the courses adopted renders it practicable to present a most thorough and comprehensive curriculum of study, - one sufficient to impart to the student a complete scientific as well as practical medical education. In eacl1 course the various branches are taught in a succession, which, after several years' trial, approves ilsell' to the Faculty as natural and most pro- motive ot' thoroughness. To each term and each year certain studies are assigned, in which the student is required to become proficient before entering upon more advanced studies. POST-GRADUATE COURSE. Physicians who have received the medical degree will be ad- mitted to the School, and allowed to attend such lectu1'es as they choose, and will he entitled to receive a certilicate of such at- tendance. In order to obtain the diploma of the School, they must, by examination, satisfy thc Faculty that they have fulfilled all the requirements of the School for graduation. a SPECIAL COURSES. Suitable persons may be admitted to such course or courses of' instruction in the School as they may select, and their attend- ance may be certilied to upon their tickets. Such special courses will not count as any part ot' the three or four years' courses. CHEMICAL LABORATORY. A new Chemical Laboratory has been arranged and fitted up in a thorough and convenient manner, so that every student can perform the necessary experiments and acquire the practice in manipulation essential to a knowledge of chemistry. CLINICAL INSTRUCTION. Daily clinics are held in the College building in the Medical, Surgical, Gynaecological, and Dental Departmeuts,land twice a week in diseases of the I-Ieart, Lungs, Throat, Skin, Ear, and Children. In these, as in other departments,1special efforts will be made to fainiliarize the students with the best ' THE SCHOOL OF IPIEDICINE. 131 methods of examining patients, and to instruct them in all the details ot' diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment. Before graduation, all students will be required to furnish satisfactory written reports of at least twenty medical, tive sur- gical, and three obstetric eases attended personally hy them. They must also report in writing from each of' the other clinical departments five cases seen by them, giving four of the leading diagnostic symptoms, and four of the principal remedies appli- cable. Physicians are urgently requested to send to the College clinics during the lecture sessions such eases ol' general or spe- cial disease as possess unusual interest or require particular skill and experience in their treatment. All operations and exam- inations betbre the class will be gratuitous. THE MASSACHUSETTS I-IOMGEOPATHIC HOSPITAL. This eommodious structure is in close proximity to the School, and in tl1e arrangement ot' its wards, its ventilation, light, and heat, is unsurpassed by any hospital in the country. The stu- dents will have as free access to its wards as practicable, in order that they may become familiar with disease in its various formsg and clinical lectures and instruction will he given upon a variety ot' diseases. During the past year the hospital has been enlarged at a cost of' nearly a hundred thousand dollars. It has special facilities for the care and comfort of the patients, and has one of' the finest operating theatres in the country. A large number of rare and instructive surgical operations are performed in the presence of the students, who-are, in many cases, allowed to assist. WESTBOROUGII INSANE HOSPITAL. The establishment by the State of' an Insane Hospital where the patients will receive homoaopathic treatment will give in- creased opportunities to the students of this School to obtain clinical instruction in insanity and mental diseases, - a branch olf rnedicineuwhieh is of increasing importance. It will be open to the students of this School during the year. ' 132 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. Tll IC 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 distance from the School, the lecture hours ofthe Senior and Middle Classes are so arranged, that, without loss of time, these stu- dents can be present at all important operations. The great extent of the hospital, and the large number of surgical eases, atford an opportunity of witnessing nearly every variety of sur- gical operation. A TIIE I'IOMG3OPATHlC MEDICAL DISPENSARY. This institution has three different locations in the city. These are accessible to the students g and, from the large number 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 about seventeen thousand cases have been treated, and over forty thousand prescriptions and domiciliary visits made. Students in the senior year are allowed to visit patients at their homes, and prescribe under the direction and with the aid ot' the professors. In addition to the above there are public and private hospitals which students can obtain permission to visit, and thus familiar- ize themselves with the various methods of treatment.

Sanborn, Esq., Inspector ot' State Charities for Massachusetts, on thc Duties and Opportunities of the Medical Profession towards the Inmates ot' Public Institutions, and in regard to the Dependent and Delinquent Classes in General. A special course on Dermatologylhas also been given by John L. Coflin, M.D. Other lectures and instruction on special subjects will be given during the year, as necessity requires or occasion presents. EXAMINATIONS . 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.'-fQuiz1 THE SCHOOL 0FiMEDIC1'NE. 137 classes have been organized among the students for mutual im- provement, and they have proved serviceable in more thoroughly impressing the instruction upon the student's mind. At the end of each term an examination is held on the stud- ies finished during the term. The student is required to com- plete 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 the final exami- nation in each chair, the student receives a card stating the per- centage he has therein attained. Fifty per cent will be required from each chair in order to pass g but an average of seventy per cent from all the chairs will be required, in order to enable a student to graduatci p LIBRARIES, READING-ROOMS, ETC. The following are open to the student without charge: - 1. The Library of the School contains about twenty-five hundred volumes, comprising some of the most recent and val- uable 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. A. new Reading-Room has been fitted up and supplied with the leading medical journals and works of reference, to which tl1e students have access. i 3. The Public Library of the City of Boston. 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 Washingtong and the other, a special collection in Pennsylvania. N on-resident students will, on application to the Public Library, be furnishediwith' a ticket, to be countersigned by the Dean, admitting 'them to its privileges. T A i ' 138 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. .4. The Reading-Room of' the Public Library. More than four hund1'ed periodicals, including leading medical journals QAmerican and Europeanj, are here taken. 5. 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 t1'ustees of this f'und have placed its income under the charge of the Faculty of' this School, and books are loaned tothcse students during the term-time. 6. The varied and valuable facilities for general culture which Boston affords in its other libraries, its collections of nat- ural 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 ambitions student can hardly be overestimated. MUSEUM . ' Preparations in wax, illustrative of anatomical structures and pathological conditions, have been made expressly for this School. The collection of' anatomical, pathological, and physi- ological specimens is already quite large, and steadily increas- ingg while the histological and microscopical cabinet contains many rare and beautiful specimens. -The friends of' the School will subservc its interests by procuring and forwarding to the Museum any suitable specimens. GRADUATION. ' Candidates forthe degree of Bachelor of' Medicine or Bach- elor of' Surgery must have studied medicine three full years, thc last of which was in this School, and must have passed exam- inations in all the branches of the first three years of' the four- years' course in this'School with a minimum average of' eighty per cent. Candidates for the degree of Doctor of' Medicine must be twenty-one years old and of' good moral character. f - Such as have not pursued one of' the prescribed courses of' this School,'and passed its regular examinations,-must present evidence of having studied medicine during' three iycarsf with competent instruction, of' having attended at least threeifull THE -SCHOOL OF IIIEDIOINE. 139 and reputable courses of lectures, the last in this School, and must pass an examination satisfacto1'y to the Faculty.

Students can live as economically in Boston as in any city of its sizeg and personal expenses will be determined in a great measure by the tastes and inclinations of the individual. The cost of board and rooms need not exceed from four to seven dollars per week. By the formation of clubs, the expense of board has been reduced to less than four dollars per week in some departments of the University. The lectures and other exercises of the School will be arranged at convenient hours for students living in any of the neighbor- ing cities or towns on the lines oi' the various railroads. Season tickets on several railroads can be obtained by stu- dents at reduced rates, the reduction being usually one-half. Inquiry regarding students' tickets should be made at the rail- road ollices, and not at the oflice of the School. SCHOLARSHIPS. Garjield Scholarshzya.--A fund has been contributed, the income 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 the School will add to this fund yearly. Wade Scholarships.-A limited number of scholarships, resulting from the income of the fund, bequeathed by the Hon. John WVade of Woburn, for the heneht of poor and worthy young women, are at the disposal of the officers of the School, and will be available to such as require assistance. There are also several positions in wl1icl1 successful and worthy applicants, whether men or women, may receive valuable assistance in the prosecution of their studies. Among these are the following : - . . House Physicians and House Surgeons to the Massachusetts Homwopathic 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 SCHOOL OF MEDICINE. 141 Murdock's Free Hospital for Women and Children. -This institution affords the position of House Physician, which may be filled by a woman student in the third or fourth year of study. The Consumptives' Home and Cancer Hospital.-Appointr 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.-The incumbents secure room-rent free, and have very valuable opportunities for seeing practice. The Assistants to the Librarian, Janitor, and Professors, receive aid in 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 Ilospital, has been greatly enlarged, and now contains three ample lecture-rooms, including an amphitheatre capable of seating three hundred students, lab- oratories, a spacious and airy dissecting-room, a museum, a library, a reading-room, and cloak and dressing rooms for ladies and gentlemen.

DESIGN AND SCOPE. This School is designed, first, for the beneiit of Bachelors of Arts, of 'whatsoever college, who, with little or no direct refer- ence to fitting themselves for a professional life, may desire to receive post-graduate instruction in this U niversity, and, see- ondly, to meet the wants of graduates in Theology, Law, Medi- cine, or other professional course, who may wish to broaden and supplement their proicssional culture by courses of study in related sciences, arts, and professions. It is the department which crowns and unilies 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 course approved by a committee ot' 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-auniversal post-graduate school. I fy ' To qualified specialists it will aim to provide thorough in- struction in- 1 THE SCHOOL OF ALL SCIENCES. 151 All Cultivated Languages and their Literatures. .All Natural and Matlieniatical Sciences. 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 mattereommon to several special sciences is treated a larger whole. WVhen 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. Universal 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. These sciences are all of recent birth, several of them, in- deed, .scarce ehristenedg but all of them are legitimatelehil- dren of the new science and new methods ot' the nineteenth century. Others are sure to follow. l V ':f.,..,.: 152 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK.

Of the above a few may fail to be given, from lack of a suffi- cient number of' applicants for themg but in such cases a fair increase of the tuition-fee will secure the course. Persons who have already been admitted to the degree of Bachelor oi' Arts, and who desire to fit themselves to become professors 6'f bratory, are invited to communicate with the Dean, or with the Snow Professor of' Elocution and Oratory. As 154 BOSTON UNIVERSITY YEAR BOOK. heretofore, the Bachelor of Arts can attain the Master's degree by successfully pursuing prescribed oratorical and other studies for two years. THE NATIONAL UNIVERSITY AT ATHENS. Since 1874, by special agreement, members of the School of' All Sciences ot' Boston University who are Bachelors of Arts can pursue approved courses of study in the National Univer- sity at Athens without expense for tuition. On returning, and passing a satisfactory examination, such students will receive their appropriate degree precisely as if they had remained in residence. ' The National University of Greece, organized by the renas- cent kingdom in l83li, 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 ot' 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 aiibrded to students of Philology, Histo1'y, and Art, a selection from the lecture-topics of the Philosophi- cal Faculty was given in a former volume of the YEAR Boorc. 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, beautilied 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 ol' the most renowned in the world. I 1 Soon after the occupation of the city as capital of the new kingdom ot' Italy, the University was entirely re-organized upon THE SCHOOL OF ALL SCIENCES. 155 a plan worthy oi' 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 F1I.Clllliy of Law numbers about twenty profes- sors. Their lecture-conrses cover: Introduction to the Study of the Juridical Sciencesg History of Jurisprudenceg Roman Law 3 the Civil Code 9 Institutes of Canon Law 5 Criminal Law g Procedure in Criminal Lawg Civil Proeedureg Administrative Law 5 Mercantile Law 3 Political Economy g Science of Finance g Constitutional Lawg International Lawg Admiralty, Philoso- phy of Law g Medical J urisprudenee, etc. The Faculty ol' 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 Facility of Physical and Mathematical Sciences is oi' the same size.as that of Medicineg the Facility of Philosophy and Letters, only a little smaller. ln 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 ol' 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 ot' triumph, fora, aqueducts, temples, tombs,-all these and many more are among the daily instructors ot' the student in Rome.

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 oi' the U niversity. This worklis warmly commended to persons of' wealth desirous of' rendering the highest forms of' education a most needed service. The General Statutes of the University upon Scholarships, and the privilege accorded to founders of them, may be seen under the head of fi New Foundations in this issue of the Yuma Boolc. IFIGIJLOW SHIPS. 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 addition to these, at least a few in every great department of learning, who, over and above tl1e highest ordinary advantages, shall have enjoyed the best that the world can anywhere afford. No private study, particularly in connection with laborious scholastic or professional duties, can ever make good the lack of' such opportunities in early life. The General Statutes of the University upon Fellowships are as follows : - rm: sclfoozz or ALL sc1ENcEs. 159 I. All recipients of the above lhigherj degrees from this University shall be eligible to the University Fellowshipsg and each Fellow shall be aided in the further prosecution of studies, especially in foreign univer- sities, hospitals, and other institutions, to the amount of not less than five hundred dollars per annum for such periods as the statutes may allow. ' 2. In filling the professorships of the University, Fellows will be con- sidered as preferred candidates. It is earnestly hoped that one or more Fellowships may at once be endowed.

' ESTABLISHED IN 1828. ON11: reason of 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 attentiong and the teachers are ready to give extra help out of recitation hours. The school has already increased its attention to modern languages, 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 Matters. 2. The aid in the formation of Character, Habits, and Manners. 3. The attention given through the whole Classical and Eng- lish Courses to Composition, English Literature, and Declaxna- tion. The large number of teachers affords unusual advantages for Students wishing to enter Professional Schools without going through College. Students fitting for THE lNS'l'l'1'UTE OF TECHNOLOGY receive special instruction in a class by themselves during the last year before examination, in addition to teaching given in the regular classes. Young Ladies wiho are intending to take a collegiate course, or to enter the Institute of Technology, can have the great advantage of reciting in the same classes with boys who are on the regular course of prepara- tion, and of being under teachers who have successfully carried on such preparation for many years. Such students have been iitted here, or are now fitting, for Boston and Cornell Universities, the Harvard Annex, Smith, Vassar, and XVellesley Colleges, and the Institute of Technology. Information may be obtained from the President and Faculty of Boston University in regard to the standing of their students whose preparatory course was finished at Chauney 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. Arnu., 1886.

Piano, Organ, Violin, Guitar, and Vocal Instruc- tion, and also that in Drawing and Painting, are in charge of the best city masters. g The system tpeculiar to this schoolj of sell'-government, after a success- ful probation, appeals to the best motives, and rarely fails to strengthen in the pupil the sense of responsibility to herself, that is most valuable in life. In many years of practical trial we have found mental training to be strengthened and broadened by diversion at times to some practicalln- tcrests. To them, therefore, some recreation time, easily spared, has been giveng and, as results have often proved, this has been preparation for various fortune. For nine years lessons have been given in Cooking, Dress-making, Mil- liuery, Mending, and other domestic Arts, by ladies of assured skill in these departments of work. ' The Cooking has tiue lecture and work rooms of its own in thc new building. , A large class in Phonography is maintained by a gentleman of much experience as teacher and reporter.
