A. M. D, G. LOYOLA COLLEGE. Loyola College, conducted by Fathers of the Society of Jesus, was founded in September, 1852; and in April, 1853, was endowed by the Maryland Legislature with full col- legiate powers and privileges. 1 The College Course, which leads to the Degree of Bachelor of Arts, consists of four classes, corresponding to the Freshman, Sophomore, Junior, and Senior years, but known in the Colleges of the Society as First Grammar, Poetry, Ehetoric, and Philosophy. It embraces the study of the Doctrines and Evidences of Religion ; Logic, Metaphysics, Theodicy, and Ethics ; the English, German, French, Latin and Greek languages; Rhetoric, Poetry, and Elocution; Mathe- matics and the Natural Sciences; History, Geography, and Mythology. Grammar Department. Besides the four regular Col- lege classes, there is a complete Grammar Course, where the student lays the necessary foundation for the higher work of the College classes. Special advantages for physical development are afforded in a well-equipped gymnasium. 1 The legal title for bequests, The Associated Professors of Loyola Col- lege in the City of Baltimore. 3

4 Catalogue of A Special Class in Latin and Greek is formed each year for those beginners in these languages whose knowledge of English and Mathematics is above the grade of the lowest class in regular course. Business Training. Application is often made for a special training which will fit the student immediately for business. Experience, however, proves that but a very poor substitute for education can be found in the almost exclusive development of a single faculty. The most successful busi- ness man is not he who has learned merely to read, write and cipher; but the one who, with true farsightedness, having first had all his powers developed by a liberal education, is enabled afterwards to bring a tenfold mental activity to mer- cantile pursuits. The details of business life can be learned only by practice ; and these once mastered, superior training makes itself felt from the very outset. Instead, therefore, of adopting a special commercial drill, the College aims to secure the most thorough instruction in all branches of mathematics, together with solid classical training. Study of English. One of the principal objects ever kept in view in reading the Latin and Greek classics, is to make use of them as an invaluable aid to the study of Eng- lish. The student having once shown by an exact literal translation that he fully understands the author, is required to express in pure, idiomatic, and elegant English, the very shade of meaning conveyed by the text. This kind of trans- lation is given not only in writing, but also orally, in order that fluency of language may be acquired along with propri- ety of expression. Finally, the student ' s version is compared with English translations of acknowledged excellence, and points of resemblance or difference carefully noted. The plays of Shakespeare, the works of other poets, American and British, and the masterpieces o f American and British orators and prose writers, are made the subject of critical study and analysis. Moreover, an English essay, narration, description,
