Hins- dul2, Sonth Englewood, Hawthorne, Gleacoe: and Thornton. These all make iiberzl proposi- tions, and the Trastees arc considering them. baot it isnot yet known whera the Univorsity will be located. The scope of ths University will natarliy ba vast. as there will be but ona for the eutire denomination iu the Northwest ; all other insti- tations of learning will be coileges or semina. ries, wherever they msv be located. The facul- ties of these several colleges will be & portion of tbe facnity of the Universitr. Anotiar featare will be that, under this regu- ladon, te University alane can confer degrees. ‘I'he coursos of stady and examinaticn in ail lixe gredes of this instication, or its colieges, wil: also be alike, and thus pive the bes [eatures of Oxiord and Cambridze Universities. 1t is well known that every denomination has organized & cumber of collezes nuder diffezent charters, which has in many instances proven a grave mistake and led to fiugucial failures Nearly every denomination nas scen the mis- take of multivlying colieges with separato chac- ters and fuil ncademic powers, and has realized the great necessity of having a grand ceaurs. univessity, organically related to the several collages. Ine Reformed Epiacopal University of the Northwest procoses to protit by the mistakes ot other denominatious. and 18 the fimt to p1tintc zealization in this couutry the full meaniug of the trua Univermty ides. Another feature will te the conferriug of the higher degrecs upom exsmination alone,—such as Doctor of Philos- ophy. Doctor of Divimty. Doctor of Laws, etc. following the plzo of tho Lnglsh and better i German universities, This plan was fis inaugmuased Dr. Fuliows ' the Ilincis Wesleyan _Uuiversitcy at Bloom- iugtoo, and worzed aémirably and with markes success. Sevoral geotlemen have passed duil- iant exawmnations for tho seieral degrees, ar inieters, and ciergymen, and professois in col legos. This feature makes the coufernng of de groes one of absviuto werit, and not of (avor, at has boen the case, a3 is well kuown, in many 1n. stauces. The examinations of the University will be conducted by gentlemen emiuent for theil scholarsbip, who, in conjunction with the facul ty, will constitute tho Board of Examiners. Examinations will be 1 writing. 4hs plan, also, has met with marked favor from the lead- ing educators of the country, a3 un entirely new foature in American coilegiate bistory. \Wher- ever the University may be located. there wiil be grouped sround 1t colleges of theology, law, medicine, musie, technology, the sciences. anc the arts. This will be oue of its crowniug fea- turos, and will be carried oo 1n a maoner bereto- fore almost nuknown in this country. A com- Ela{a education in the fine arts may be secured ero from compeent professors. The musical academy will aleo bo placed on a model basis. aod the cwrriculum will include everything from the teaching of mere Fma playiog to the fall and highest ccltare of the voice. The financial basis has been provided for the University. ‘The point at which it is located. of course, will give 3 handsome donation in Iands and money. Lauds will also be purcassed by the University corporation as required, and it 13 expected that liberal donations will be made for the eodowment of chairs in individoal colleges. A great many friepds of the University staad ready to give land, which will ungoubtedly prove ot great value in years to come. Tnere is one_thing that should espocially bs noted, The University is gowg to avoid the terrible rock upon which so maoy 1stitutioas of learning have split—the great rock of debt. The Trustees propuse first to_endow living men, aud not a dead pile of brick, s*ote, and morsar. They intend to firet put up a wing of & very handsoma and commodions building, and put up the main stracture as s0on as pracsicable. All the neces- sary fuods to carry on_the enterprise will be forthcoming when 1t i3 decided wherethe Uni- versity shail be located.
