The historic period of Chicago itself doos mot extend very far back into the past. The life of s eingle generation will cover the whols “of it. TThere are yet thoss among us, and not oven in the “sear and yellow,” who eaw & small hamlet cfatew houss clustering around a point on Pandolph, Lake, Dearborn, Stato, and Clark eireets, occupied by two or three. hundred peo- ple; yes, even beyond that, when a small stock- sdefort or block-hones, & trading-post, a few fodisns and balf-brecds, constituted the gorm oot of which this mighty city should grow,—tho ssionishment of the world, even while yet they lisger smid the changed scenes of their earlier yurs. A third of & contury embraces all there is ofimportance in the growth of Chicago. Prior t 184, its poasibilities wore hidden: not even the most enthusiastic, in their wildest dreams esthey peered with strained eyes into the fa- fure, could form o picture approzching the re- ality which has since dawned upon their vision. Thirty years, then, has Chicago had to call nto existence, and to build up, all that sho is, scd o start on & caraer whose end and whose greatness wo may not forecast. All hor institu- tiors, of whatever nature, are of this brief e ST s —— e ) e et ot e —. 2N s s b €5, Among them, and ocenpying & prominent posi- tion, is the one whose history we now propose to keich,— TIE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO. Womight eay, by way of preface, that most of the early settlera of our city came frum New Eagland and New York, and brought with them e broad and liberal views concerning educa~ tim which prevail in that section of our coun- tr7; and to this fact we owe the early establish- ment of our excellent and comprehensive public- #chool syatem, and the interest which has from fhabeginn'ng been manifested in the cause of popular and higher education. ‘Soms time in the fall of 1854, - - DB. ANSEL EDDY, T * adistingnished Presbyterian divine of Newark, 1+ K.T,cameto Chicago; prospecting, probably s gesking & *call,” possibly ; or baving an invita- tion from his brethren ‘* on trust ” to visit them, perhaps. Be that as it may, he came, and found bers, 28 wo suppose he expected to find, an old vupil of his, THE HON. STEPHEN A. DOUGLAS, vhemhe had taught in years agone to declino bitin nouns and conjugate Latin verbs. During tho relationship of instructor and pupil, & close intimacy and a strong attachment had grown up between them,—a feeling of mutual respect snd steem. One bright sutemnal day, Dr. Eddy i od Senator Donglas went out into the then | wmewhat distant suburb of our city at Cottage l Grove, where the Senator owned & beautiful and —— —— e . exteneive estats, “covored with shady groves sad foreets primeval,” s part of which has eince becomo academic and classio, such as the old Poels ging of, Wallung along, the ministor 1e- marked something after this fashion: ¢ Mr. Doaglus, this 18 8 “ BEAUTIFUL SPOT FOR A COLLEGE j your gres.est glory would be to liberally endow, ¥ith & portion of your property, an inatitution ofbearing of the highest order, right hore, un- der the ehadow of this great and growing city of (e West.” The Sonetor was touched with the {des; perhaps he had entertained it befors ; he Ipred into a thoughtful mood, and the two ! pusedon insilence for a fow minutes, which w1 broken by, I will do it, Dr. Eddy, if you will congent to beita President.” Other con- vertations upon the subjeet followed at this, as well a8 at subsequent times. - +Inthe beginning, Mr. Douglas cherished the lies of founding an institution eutirely inde- feadeat of any denominational control, and un- THE PATRONAGE OF THE STATE. He had obtained this ides from having made % personal inepection of soms of the geat continental universities of Eu- Tpe and his first proposition was upon it. He and Dr. Burronghs dis- fussed point pretty thoroughly at Terre Esate, and he seoms to havo abandoned his pre- zceived notions, and to have been 8o far con- 18 t0 concede the necessity and desirabie- 238 of denominational control to the extent of anying ibility with it. Hence his first i unl;a of the o 3 b Ton Presbyterians, through Eddy, and subsoquently to the Baptists, Dr. Burroughs. Inthe early spring of 1855, Dr. Eddy removed bQicago, having received and accepted a call Wibe pastorate of the Westminster Preabyterisn Boon after his arrival definite arrange- Lents were entared into between him snd Mr. Donglas on the founding of a College or Univer- l , on to basis of their provious understand- g, wder the anspices of THE PEEEBYIERIAN DENOMINATION. | o Douglas was to donate ten acres of land, I Qe present site, for that purpose, and Dr. Eddy it emply with certain conditions, by th n‘f‘%}é ecsmih:;, about six months ahesd.

BHOULD NOT BE EXCLUSIVE. A provision carrying out these views was eub- soquently embodied in the cherter, and has formed the busis of the policy of the University, both in the Board of Trestees and in the Faculty, ever since, _Dr. Burroughs, in his sccount of the inter- View with Mr. Douglas, at Terro taute, says : An element naturall y contributing to the re- sult songht to be bronght about ought not to be passod over, especially as it brings into view abenefactor of the University, who Las never boen an actor in 1ts history, but whose influence El\-l! x:u:hu% back fx;om the Unseen World to elp forward principles and interests which in life aho had lo‘\zed and laborod for. - MBS. DOUGLAB {who was & Baptist) had but recent] died, and it was gomething to be remembered to see the great statesmen, in tho midst of his career of in- tense activity apd ambition, swayed and sabdued Dy reverence and affection for the noble woman who had shared his oarly struggles. As our con- Yoreation went on, he said, abruptly, as if a new thought had occurred_to’ him, and with a voico broken by emotion, *Who cxn tell but that this isthe way in whichIam to fulfill a promise :'udo wtnl;:’ fofs il‘!‘: bél); last dnils’ that I would 0 something for the Church and the principles which she la!\i:d i SEEE ., This, too, may account for the tender solio- itudo Mr. Douglas ever manifestod in the suo- coss of the entorprise, after it had passed into the hands of the Bsptists. But there were n DIFFICULTIES TO BE OVERCOME in the ve: lneeE;ion of the enterprise. So bitter was the feeli g sgainst Mr. Douglas on olitical grounds, and especially on account of is uniting with the South in oxtonding the area of slevery by the repeal of the Missourl Compromizs, that meny 1osd.in§ Baptists were opposed to receiving the land as a donation from him. This focling had undoubtediy boen one of the causes which defeated the efforts of Dr. Eddy, and it now stood prominently in the way of Dr. Burroughs and his friends. “A few months were spent in preliminaries, and, on the 16th of July, 1856, THE FIRST PUDLIC MEETING of the friends of the movoment was held at the office of Gon. M. Broyman, 76 Lake street. Of this meeting the late Hon. Charles Walker was President, sud J. O. Brayman Secretary, The whole subject was discussed, the action of Dr. Burroughs _spproved, and a resolution adopted to go forwsrd as rapidly as possible to meet the conditions of the land-grant. Gradual- Iy the feeling of opposition on political grounds abated, and, after a little while, almost entirely disappeared, As was datural, the *laboring-oar” fell to Dr. Burronghs. Having resigned his pastorship of the First Church, he entered vigorously upon the work of raising subscriptions for the émbryo University. He was very successful, and, in less than a year, the sum of TWO HUNDRED AND TWENTY THOUSAXD DOLLARG had been subscribed. ‘This was doing grandly,— for, be it remembered, things were not done on 8o Iarge & scale in the ante-War times as they havo been sinco the advent of enbacks. Dr. L. D. Boone put his name down for $5,000 . T. Edwards, Samuel Hoard, J, 8. Buchanan, J. K, Burtis, J. E. Pollard, and others, for the aame amount, A liboral charter was obtained from the Leg- isiature of the State, st the session of 1657, ; and, in June following A Board of Trustees was elected, of which Mr, Douglas wes properly made President, s position which he held up to the time of his death, in 1861. The Board went forward, and made arrange- ments for the erection of the neceseary build- ingsupon the site donated. On the Fourth of July, 1857, THE FIRST CORNER-STONE WAS LAID, amid imposing ceremonics, under the direction of the Masonic Order, and in the prosenceof a large concourse of peoplo who had gathered in the beautiful grove. The Hon. Thomas Drum- mond, Judge of the United Btates Court, acted as Presidont of the day. Mr, Donglas was prosent, but, owing to_indisposition, mad ut o brief sddress. The Hon. Isasc N. Arnold delivered ths principal address of the oc- casion, in which he did not omit to excoriate Mr. Douglas for his then recent political action. Other addressos wero made, and the great work of founding & University for Chicagoand tho Northwest was considered {Ac;u;lg under way. ‘‘But man proposes and isposes.”” Tho Board advertised through the public press for bids for the erection of the buildings. Quite & number were received. The most favorable was that of Mesers. Stone & Boomer, and a meeting of the Board waa called in the first week of August to formally award the contract. But the day dawned upon a changed condition of.affairs. The lightning-flash of tho telegraph conveyed that morning the unwelcome intelligence of the failure of tho Ohio Life & Trust Company, and foreshadowed A GENERAL PIXANCIAL CRASH,— an event which followed all too soon, and reached all parts of tho country. The Board met. None bad the courage togo forward, and it was resolved to indefinitely postpone the whole enterprise. Hero was geemingly & failure. But Dr. Bur ronghs, with s pertinacity snd s fixodness of purpsoe which has characterized him all through, did not despair of final success; and Mr. Douglas came to the rescne with s liberality and forbearance which do him infinite credit. The result waa, todelay ths undertaking a whols enr. Inthe general crash, many of the most Eberfl subsoril to the fund went down, and ‘were wholly unable to meet their enf‘ng«:mnntu. Others, taking advantage of the delay, backed out of theirs ; so that, when the time for a new effort arrived, nearly tho entire financial work had to be done over again. THE INCORPORATOLS AND FIRSY BOARD OF TRUS- TEZES. Beforo resuming the narrative, we will give the names of the incorporators and of the first Board of Trustees of tha University. The act of incorgamu’onm passed on the 2d day of April, 1857, and constituted the following gen- tlemen o body corporata: m%en A. Douglas, John C. Burroughs, W.lism B. Ogden, Mason Brayman, Hiram A.

We bave seen the Board of Trustees despairing of snccess and ready to sbandon the enterprise. But not so Dr. Burroughs. He was eanguine still that Light would come out of darkness ; that the ro- cuperative enargies of our people coald not long be kept down under the pressure of financial ro- versen. Beuator Douglns, Loo, behiaved nobly. He might have resamed Lis gift on account of & failure to compiy with the conditions which accompanied it. Lut the thought nover, probably, entered his mind. Ho took o largs art of the burden, nnd cammed it forward. "'liere also came anvifior helper, who over proved & fast friend of the Cniversity,—an honored citizen of Chicago, who had. acquired wealth here, and used it, much of it, tos good purposo: It was at this time that the late - WILLIAM JONEB ' * gave his voice and his money to aid in revivinj the paralyzed onterprise. The financial storm had somewhat blown over, though wrecks were strewn in every direction. But in July, 1858, operations were resumed in earnest, and the work upon the north wing and - corridor was pashed rapidly forward to completion. In the meantime, arrangements went forward for organizing & school,—the germ of the future Univesity. . Dr. Burroughs having been clocted Prosident of the Faculty and Professor of Moral and Intollectual Philosophy; A. H. Aixer, Pro- fessor of Grook Language and Literature; and Le Roy Battelle, Professor of English Language and Literature, the institution was FORMALLY USHERED INTO EXISTENCE on the 20th of September, 1858, with a registry of six stadents | Proparstory classes wero soon organized, and it was announced in the firat circular issued that *‘All departments meet forthe present in the rooms recently occu- pied by the Chicago Young Ladies’ Institute, on the first floor of B8t. Paul's Church, corner of \Wabash avenue and Van Buren street ;" and also that " The rooms are carpeted, spacious, and well furnished with school appa- ratua.” And the University of Chicago had form and being ; had an organis existence ; was & fact—a reality, though but in the germ to be developed in tho future. 1t was the day of small things ; but the cmbiyo was imbued with vitali- ty, and was honceforth to grow and expand, we Lope, elmost indefinitely, sathe years roll along. Nearly filteen years have passed awsy, and what & change has taken place, though the en- terprise Las been compassed about with difficul- ties and obstacles growing out of the peculiar condition of the country (the great Rebellion has risen and been put down, requuring all the ener- gies and revenues of the people), as well as those incident to every new educational euterprise, besides some which have been peculiar in this case, and onght never to havo had an existence. THIS FIRST CIRCULAR, to which we bave referred, being a * historia document,” deserves to be further quoted from, a8 foreshadowing the views and expectations of the foundzrs of the University. It eaya: {* The institution is designed to be what its name imports,—a UNIVERSITY,—and the managers are resolved to give a character suitablo to its posi- tion as a Untversity for the City of 'Chicago and the Northwest. . . . . Requirements for admis- sion will be the same as in the best Tastern col- leges.” An Academy, or Higher English and Classical School, was' provided for; s Collegiate Couree, the firat, or Iroshmen, class of which was expected to graduate in 1863, waa organized ; and a Scientific Course, differing from the Col- legiate Course in the omission of the ancient languages, and the substitution of the modern langusges, tho higher mathomatics, and the scicnces and their applications, was inaugurated. It was_also announced that ciarses would be formed in German and French for those who might wish to study those languages without be- coming members of the University. Thus was laid tLe foundation of the institution whose his- tory we are endeavoring to kotch. .”:THE FIRST COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES in connection with the dedication of the new buildinq—bemg the sonth wing, and known as ‘! Jones' Hall"—occurred on the 21st of July, 1859. In the morning, the Hon. J. R. Dooliftle, of Wisconsin, then s momber of the United States Senate, delivered the dedlcatory address. Mr. Doolittle has always been s fast friend of tho University, aiding it with his influence and wiso counsels from tho beginning. In the evening, sn address was delivered by Prof. A. C. Ken- drick, of the University of Rochester. Theoc- casion was ona of great interest with the friends of the young institution, It wza mow fairly under way, having demonsirated ite right to live by benring fruit, and eutering upon its career of sending forth young men fully eanipped with mental learning for the battle of lif. THE GECOND TEAR showe a large increase it the number of students, —178 appearing on tho Register. Tho Faculty, too, had been materially enlarged by the addi tion of A. J, Bawyer as Professor of Mathe- matica ; E. 0. Johnson, Professor of Latin; J. H. McChesney, Professor of Chamlnk{, Geolo- . Mineralogy, and Agriculture; the Hon. Blby V. Boll, brofessor of Commereial Science James Sila, in English Lasgusgo and Liters: ture ; and William Tillinghast, in Vocal Music. For the next two or three years thers is noth- ing of especial interest to noto in the history of the University. _Notwithstanding the existence of the great Rebellion, which abeorbed the at- tention and the resources of the country, calling its young men to arms in defense of its Govern- ment and to J)reaarvs its existence, the Univer- ity continued to grow in strength and in popu- larfavor. We find, by the record, that NINETY-TWO OF ITS STUDENTS - entered the Union army, several of them rising to high positions of trust and command. Finan- cial difficulties were encountered, which taxed the energies of its indefatigable President, who had the main burden to bear, as well as to per- form his collegiate duties at the sume time. The prosperity of the University soon outran the sccommodations afforded by ** Jones® Hall,” and the Trustees moved to entor upon the con- struction of THE MAIN DUILDING, although we were then in the midst of our great Civil War. But mors room become a nocessity, and the wisest alternative was adopted. Dr. Burroughs, havipg too many duties on his ‘hands, retired from the finances, and the Rev. M. G. Clarke was appointed General Financial Agent, which post he held for sbout three Under his management the main zui.lding was erected. It was com- pleted in 1865, ata cost of about £125,000. It embraces o large chapel, rooms for the various scientific departments, recitation-rooms, a large Teception-room, suites for religious and literary societies, bedides dormitoriea for the students. Credit is given o Prof. A. H. Mixer for raising & good share of the funds for tho eraction of the main building; but still the enterprise_left the University heavily in debt, tho priacipal part of the present indebtedaeas having beea incurred st that time. ‘We may pass over the next four years without meeting any striking incident in the general cur- rent of ovents, s specially connected with the University, Its course of instraction, which bhad from the commencement been of a high hed [ ESTABLISHED ITS REPUTATION throughont the country, sad its alumni had al- ready be to make their mark in the active da- ties of life. During these years, the Greek Pro- fessorship was endowed, chiefly through the ef- forts of Dr. Everts, in New York, and progress made in other endowments by Dr. Burroughs and Drs. Miner and Roe. We should have said befora that the Bev.J. B. Olcott, the first Fi- nancial Becretary of the Univeristy, did a good work in getting up the early subscriptions, which so largely went down with the crash of 1857. ¥ mim gmm:uon;.m itsenity A= an episode in the ory of the Universi proper, o Eite some gocousit ?r the ostablish- ment of the Dearborn Observatory. The first project of an Astronomical Ob- servatory in connection with the University was brought forward by Prof. M. R. Fory. He bad been a tescher of the science of Astronomy elsewhere, and his plan was to_pro- cure an oxtonsive apparatus, and go throngh the courtry and deliver lectures to raise the neces- sary funds. This, on investigation, was decided Dot to be feasible. Others took up the subject, among whom we may mention President Bur- roughs, the Hon. Thomas Hoyne, Prof. Mixer; andJ. Y. Scammon came to its aid with sucha liberal contribution of means aa to secure early success to the enterprise. Those engaged in it heard of the existonce of a great equatorial re- fracting telescope, constructed by Alvan Clark & 7 Cambridge, Mass.,—tho largest then in g?i:! ’c%nntry,—nfd resolved to possess it, although thers was competition from ‘several quarters. Through the promptaess of 3fr. Hoyne and others, it was secured, and, for its sccom- modation, & solid and eubstantisl tower wes erected, west and adjoining the main building of the University. Subsequeatly, & firateclats meridian circle, and o fine chronometer clock aud chronograph, werc added, making the g paratus quile complete. Ar. Seammon was the principal contributor to the funds of this doo partment, having given §25,000, besidea provid- ing for tho salary of the Astronomer in charga, Prot. T. J. Safford. The main business of the Obserutori Las been, in conjunction with several of the renowned chservatories of Europe, tae making of s new wap of the etars,—a soc- tion of the celestiel blus" having been assigned to ench. 'The work is ono which requires soverel years for its completion, snd is regarded with Ereat interest by astronomers, and rcientific men generally, thronghout the civilized world. THE'LAW DEPARTMENT, In July, 1859, the first circular was isaned con- cerning the establishment of tho Law Depart- mont of the University. A Law, Faculty had been sppointed, consisting of the Hon, eury Bootl, tne Hon. Grant Goodrich, and the Hon. John M. Wilson. The circular sot forth the ad- szutages of the legal training and discipline to bo secured in such schoolr at length. It an- nounced that ““Lectures will be given occasionally in certnin departments of jun?mdnnca, for tho sake of variety in the school; but not tosuch an extont 88 to form a prominent feature of the placo. Experience and obeervation bavo taught 18 that the recitative system, in which each stu- dent is examined daily, or oftener, in the pres- enco of the class, with the sdvantage of mutaal criticism and inquiry by his associates, and ox- planation’ and carrection by tho Professor, 1a a more effectual method of imparting = thorough knowledgo of legal principles than any eystem of mere oral instruction by lectures.” Mocl courts were next provided for, and means for “imparting the graco of a finished elocation.” It was announced in the circular that exercises in this department would commence on the 21st of the followin Baqtember, on which occagion the Hon. David Didley Field, of New York, was to deliver an addrees. = The arrangements enter- ed into were sot forth in dotail. A Board of Le- gal Counselors was n;‘JEaintcd by tho Trustecs of the University, from the legal profession of Chi- cago, to whose general management the Law- School was intrusted, Tbe Hon. Thomas Hoyne is accredited with being the “ father of it;” and most certainly he hss been an ablo, earaest, and valuablo helper in all that pertains'to the cstab- lishment of the University from tho beginning, acting in harmony with the President i promot- ing all the interests of the noble enterprice. The Lew Department went into operation as announced, and the following is a record of what 1t has done in the way of instructing and grad- ustiog stndents during the period of 1ts Coy. slud‘rgnu. Graduates. *The great October fire destroyed the buflding of the Law Departmeat, and ecattered the students, which has had the effect to reduce the number about one- Dalf the past two years.. 3 THe present Board of Counselors consists of the fo awinfi gentlemen: The Hon.

As the years glide along, thoy briug nothing ta pass in the history of au institution of this kind, out of the usual routine of studies, the vaca: tions, and the commencoments, with an occa- sional oxception. We find nothing especial to note in connection with the University, except thoso to which we shall refer ss wo draw this sketch to a conclusion. It has had to battle with financial difficulties, and some unnacessary obgtacles have been thrown in the way of is progress; but, nevertholess, it has been steadily working its way into popular favor, and proving its claims to a good position among the educa- tional institntions of the country. 'The higheat compliments havo bsen paid o "the echolarship of its gradustes by distinguished educators of the East, and they havo done credit to their Alma Mater, in tho various professions and other callings into which they have entered. Preuidont Burroughs and his acsociates are stil Iaboring, and encrificing much, in order that the University may be bilt upon sure foundations. An idea of the progress of the University may be obtained from THE ANNUAL CATALOGUES, the first of which was published for 1859-'60. The following are tho atatistica : Studenta, - Graduates. o L2838 16 The first years of the War took off quite a number from the advanced classes, and thus re- duced the number of gradustes, as’ well aa tho eneral attendance. e number has lessened the two last years by the falling off of more than one-balf in the Law Department, which was disorganized by tho great fire, which destroyed its buildings and scattered the studeats to other schools. ‘The value of the real estate and other ASSETS OF THE UNIVERSITY is large, being cstimated between $600,000 and £700,000. But o grest s proportion is in real estate, which, though necessary, is unproduc- tive, that the ourrent receipts aie comparatively limited. They were, however, last year, about equal to the current éxpensos. 'A few years sgo, Dr. Burroughs, having full £aith in the rising tendency of Chicago real es- tato, proposed to the Board of Trastessto suthor- ize ‘s purchase of a tract north of tha Univer- sity grounds, with a view of paying off _the dedtedness from the profita. The decided 1t not wise for s literary corporstion to go into the real-estato buainess, and the proposition was -declined. But the idea remaincd. with the san- guine President ; and, in tho spring of 1871, as- certaining that Gen. Riley, of Rochester, N. Y., owned 60 acres, and Col. Stone another 60, lying contignous and located southwest of the Stock- Yards, which they wished to dispose of, he en- tered into ARBANGEXNENTS FOR THE FUBCHASE. He authorized Messrs. Jacobs & Burchell,real- estate brokers of this city, to enter icio negotia- tions, which they did, and scon susceeded in making terms, receiving the usual commisgion from the ** grantors ” for effecting the eale. Dr. Burroughs mortgaged his ovn real property for 20,000, to make the first payment, and bocame responsiblo for the entire purchase, -—gin'ng a Jritten peper atipulating to poy il tho profits into the Universily treasury, to be applied in liguidation of indebtedness. Messrs, Jacobs & Burchell wero employed to map, advertise, and gell the pragerty, 120 acres, for which they were to recaive 10 per cent on the gross proceeds. Sub- sequently they purchased 40 acres adjoining, of Mr. D. W. Baker, the profits of which were to go in the same direction. Comsiderable of the land was eold, when, s short time ago, an offer was made tothe Universty of £50, net for the purchase, which was accepted,—thus making the Tesult equivalent toa . DONATION O FIFTY TEOUBAND DOLLARS from Dr. Burroughs, as healons was the respon- -ible;artyx’n the purchase of the 120 acres, and would have been utterly ruined pecuniarily by tho failuro of the enterprise. % Mensures were immediately ot on foot to raise the balance of the indobtedness of $120,000,—a large part of which had been incurred in tho erection of the main building,—with a fair pros- pect that the whole amount required WILL 800N BE REALIZED, and thus the University relieved from its finan- cial embarrassment, and permitted to go on tho caroar of usefulness it has so well begun, with vastly sugmented power and influcnce. A fair boginning for A LIBRARY has been made, by purchase, snd through the liberality of msny friends. In the University library p there are now 5,500 volumes, to 3 considerable extent a miscellaneous collection, but embracing many rare and valuable booka. The students have tho use, jointly with the Theological Seminary, of the Hengstenberg fibrary, of 12,000 volumes, mostly {0 Germs Greck, and Latin, but very valuable to the ad- vanced student. ‘There has also been accumu- Inted a creditablo_collection of apparatus and specimens in the chemical, philosophical, geolog- icel, mechenical, and physiological departments, Tho University, thongh under ths general con- trol of tho Baptiats, is XNOT BTRICTLY A DENOMINATIONAL INSTITUTION. Dr. Burronghs, in bis account of bis frat in- terview with Mr. Douglas, at Terro Hante, statos its true position, thua: * Afr. Douglaa finally con- ceded that, to the extent that denominational representstion was ssked,—that is, not of ab- soluto control, but of such well-defined rolations as would preclude future strifes for control,— his -plans might bs .modified to suis the enas which we sought.” And, in the foal result, they woro so ‘modifie &s the churier provides that the Presidont an a majority of the Board of Truntees shall always be of the Baptist denomination. This, of course, oxerts an intiuence npon its general charucter, 23 i8 seen from the fact that, “of the fifty stu- dents who now havo the ministry ultimately in view, forty-eight ure Baptists ; so that, without tho University as a feeder, the Baptist Theologi- cal Sominary, located 1n ita vicinity, would bo of Littlo use to'the dopomination. Upon tho general point of denominational con- trol, the Hon. Thomas Hoyne, who may be said to more nearly rapresent Mr. Douglas after Lis doath han any other, in University matters, sald, in a specch upon o publio occasion : # Gentlo: men of tho Baptist denomination, if I conld ever rise with the orator to command langusge in thoughts that breatho and words that burn, I would pay the most eloquent of tributes to your orgavization. The founder of this institition laced its fortuno under your care as s great niversity-school in trusv for posterity. - For the broad, catholic spirit in which the trust has Leen execated, you ro entitled to the thanks and gratitude of the city, and the Stale, and of the country,” STHE PRESENT FACULTY of the Collogiate Department is made up as fol- lows: Tho Hev.

The enterpriso is, however, held in abeyence awhile, awaiting the raising of the neceseary amount fo pay off the genera. indebtedness of the University, when it 15 expected that it will be entered upon in ear- neet, and puslied forwazd to an early consumma- ion.

It is gonerally recogmized that Madame Paiti’'s voice this_ year is richer and purer than evor. It has gained in fullness and depth ; it has some low notes worthy of Madame Trebelli. Timo deals more than geatly with the diva—deals lovingly, and beautifies her more and more. Looking at her slight form and girlish lovoliness, and watching her trip lightly across the stage, we forget hLow long we have had Adelina among us, it twelve or thirteen seasons ? Sho is perhaps three years older than when she first came. Something of Northera endurance seems to fix the South- ern bloom and ripeness; it yields neithor to timo nor fatigne, and the Patti of 1873 is all thet was the Patti of the early sixties, with the ifts of culture and experience added thersto. 'he wildness of hor versatility is demonstrated ‘when, 88 on Thursday, she undertakes a highly dramatio role. She who is Noring, the Zerlind, the Dinorak of all time can hold Zeonora, against any competitor. As sdmirable in pent-ap pas- sion s in irrepressible gayety, she filla all parta with the comploteness and_seif-abandonment of 8 thorough artist. Big.
