XENIA COLLEGE

XENIA COLLEGE, at Xenia, Ohio, chartered in 1850, and organized 1851, is under Methodist Episcopal control. It was originally organized for females only, but was soon thrown open to young men also. It comprises a collegiate course (classical and scientific), and a preparatory, a primary, and a normal department. Facilities

are also afforded for instruction in music. The regular tuition fees vary from $26 to $36 a year. In 1875-6, there were 9 professors and other instructors and 230 students (83 collegiate, 19 preparatory, 30 primary, and 98 normal). William Smith, A. M., is (1877) the president of the college.

YALE, Elihu, an American merchant, the patron, though not the founder, of Yale College, was born in New Haven, April 5., 1648; and died in London, Eng., July 22., 1721. In 1678, he went to the East Indies, and, from 1687 to 1692, was governor of Fort St. George, Madras. He was afterward made governor of the East India Company, and a fellow of the Royal Society. His gifts to the institution which afterwards bore his name, were estimated at £500. At first, only the new building, which had been erected in New Haven, was named after him; but, by the charter of 1745, this title was extended to the whole institution. A synopsis of his life may be found in the Yale Literary Magazine, April, 1858.

charge for tuition and incidentals is $140 a year. The sum of $11,000 and upward, derived partly from permanent charitable funds, is annually applied by the Corporation for the relief of students who need pecuniary aid, especially of those preparing for the Christian ministry. About 100 thus have their tuition either wholly or in part remitted. There are two fellowships, the holders of which are required to pursue nonprofessional post-graduate studies in New Haven. The catalogue of 1876-7 shows some changes in the course of studies published in that of 1875-6 (from which the statement in the article COLLEGE was taken), especially in the greater range of elective studies. There are professorships of moral philosophy and metaphysics; natural phiYALE COLLEGE, in New Haven, Ct., is losophy and astronomy; geology and mineralogy; one of the oldest and most important educa- Latin language and literature; mathematics; tional institutions in the United States.

They are 16 in number. The The special courses most distinctly marked out two buildings of the Divinity School, the two are the following: (1) in chemistry; (2) in civil buildings of the Scientific School, and the Med-engineering; (3) in dynamic (or mechanical) enical School are off the main square. The Law School is in the county court-house. The invested funds, in 1875, amounted to $1,550,000; the income was $235,465, including $107,000 from students. The institution possesses valuable museums, cabinets, and apparatus. The departments of instruction in Yale College are comprehended under four divisions, as follows: the faculty of theology (organized in 1822); of law (1824); of medicine (1812); and of philosophy and the arts. Under the last-named faculty are included, the courses for graduate instruction, the under-graduate academical department, the under-graduate section of the Sheffield Scientific School (1847), and the School of the Fine Arts (1866) each having a distinct organization. In the academical department, the course is for four years, and leads to the degree of A. B. The

gineering; (4) in agriculture; (5) in natural hishistory; (6) in the subjects preparatory to medical studies; (7) in studies preparatory to mining and metallurgy; (8) in select studies preparatory to other higher studies. These courses lead to the degree of Ph. B. The charge for tuition is $150 a year. There are professorships of mineralogy; civil engineering; astronomy and physics; dynamic engineering; theoretical and agricultural chemistry; agriculture; mathematics; botany; English; paleontology; political economy and history; analytical chemistry and metallurgy; zoology; chemistry; and comparative anatomy. The School of the Fine Arts has for its end the cultivation and promotion, through practice and criticism, of the arts of design; namely, painting, sculpture, and architecture, both in their artistic and esthetic aims. The design is, (1) to pro

In 1876-7, there were 87 instructors in all the departments, besides special lecturers. The students were as follows: theological, 95; law, 60; medical, 36; department of philosophy and the arts, 860 (graduate students, 67; special students, 2; academic under-graduates, 569; scientific, 205; fine arts, 16); total, deducting repetitions, 1,021. The number of degrees conferred, prior to 1875, was 10,605, including 870 honorary degrees; the number of academic alumni was 8,464. The government of the college is administered by the president and 18 fellows, of whom the governor and lieutenant-governor of Connecticut are, ex officio, two. Six are elected by the alumni; and the remaining ten, who are Congregational clergymen, are chosen by the fellows themselves. The rectors and presidents have been as follows: Abraham Pierson, 1701

vide thorough technical instruction in the arts of painting, sculpture, and architecture; and (2) to furnish an acquaintance with all branches of learning relating to the history, theory, and practice of art. The course of technical instruction covers three years. No provision has been made for instruction in the departments of sculpture and architecture; but it is hoped that, before long, this will be provided. There is a professor of painting, a professor of drawing, and an instructor in geometry and perspective. The chairs of sculpture, architecture, and anatomy are unfilled. The school is open to both sexes. The charge for tuition is $36 for three months. In the departments of philosophy and the arts, there are various post-graduate courses, which may be pursued by candidates for the degrees of A. M., Ph. D., and civil and dynamical engineer, or by graduates not candidates for a further degree. In the theological department, there is no charge for tuition or for room rent. There are several scholarships for the aid of needy students. In the law department, the-7; Samuel Andrew (pro tem.), 1707-19; under-graduate course is two years.

This subject has peculiar attractions for children; since, as is well known, they invariably manifest a deep interest in animal life. The principles by which the teacher should be guided in giving instruction in this, as in other branches of natural science, have been to some extent explained in previous articles. (See ASTRONOMY, and BOTANY.) In teaching zoology, care must be particularly taken to exhibit as much as possible the natural objects themselves; and, in elementary teaching, this comes first. That is to say, the pupils are not to be required to commit to memory dry definitions and formulated statements; but their minds should be brought in contact with the living realities.

Moreover, every teacher should bear in mind that a good share of his own knowledge should be at first-hand-acquired by his own observation, not simply gleaned from books-or he will not succeed in awakening an interest in the minds of his pupils. The proper method of teaching this subject has been clearly shown by one of its greatest masters. (See HUXLEY, On the Study of Zoology, in The Culture demanded by Modern Life, N. Y., 1867.)
