In a verbal reply the Executors represented that the claim of the University was not accompanied with legal evidence of title and that for this reason they it would not be allowed. A written reply was requested but it has not as yet been received. �

Show more(261) As a large part of the Property is in notes and subscriptions, it is to be feared not only that the income of the University will be diminished during the coming year but that a large permanent decline in the value of the property will be experienced. New Buildings A the commencement of the present collegiate year there was a good prospect that at least one new building imperatively demanded by the wants of the Institution would be secured but owing to the financial difficulties of the country it has been judged expedient after consultation with leading friends of the University to defer the effort to secure the funds. I again urge the subject as one of vital importance, and hope that such action will be taken as shall still keep it before the minds of our friends so that

The distinguished ability with which my worthy and highly esteemed colleague Dr. Johnston discharged the duties of the President would indicate that it was not necessary to call any other one to that office. Especial commendation is due to Professor Lane for assuming the responsibility of sustaining two departments and performing a large amount of extra labors. I here introduce with pleasure an extract from records of the Faculty as expression of their views relative to this I extra service. �

The Income of the present Library Fund will secure in the course of years a very large and we may confidently expect a well selected Library. At present the Shurtleff Cabinet is placed in the second gallery. Before this gallery will be needed for books we are confident that a new and appropriate building for scientific purposes will be erected. Memorial Chapel Earnest efforts have been made to collect the subscriptions for building the Memorial Chapel. There have been collected There is still a large amount not collected and we fear that it is probable that all will not be collected. To meet the expectation of friends and promises made when a large part of the subscriptions were secured it was deemed necessary to commence the erection of the Chapel. Our con- �

Show more(256) strongly indicate that the Faculty should be increased rather than to diminish the number even temporarily. It is probable that there would be a suspicion of inefficiency and that complaint would be heard should not all the departments be filled. The arrangement that has been adopted during the past year is objectionable for several very apparent reasons. The usual amount of Instruction assigned to the President in connection with his other duties renders the labors of his Department as severe as those of any other. It is not (to) be supposed that he can sustain two departments as well as one. It is not desirable moreover for various reasons that he should be brought into connection with the students so constantly as this arrangement requires. It would naturally and normally be expected that an additional Professor will

A new tower should be erected in connection with this building and on the top of this tower, arrangements may be made for an Astronomical Observatory which will meet the more pressing want of the Department of Astronomy for several years. I would suggest that a committee should be appointed to inspect the premises and to consider the details of the arrangement proposed. Reorganization of the Joint Board and the term of service of the Trustees It has not been practicable to secure a meeting of the Committee to whom this subject was referred. This subject has been fully discussed at several meetings of the Board and the opinion generally expressed that some change is greatly needed.

Show more(251) 1860-1861 31 Report of the President of the Wesleyan University to the Joint Board of Trustees and Visitors for the year ending June 20th 1861 In presenting this Annual Report it is my sad duty to inform the Board that during the year two Trustees, Hon. Elisha Harris and Joseph Tobey, have died. I would suggest that appropriate notice should be taken of this event. They were both well known to the Board, and it may not be fitting for me to anticipate its action by a presentation of their many public and private virtues, the service they have rendered the cause of education and their devotion to the interests of the University. The number of students enrolled during the past year is 137. Of these 106 are professor of religion and 40 are licensed preachers. Several others intend to devote themselves to the work of the ministry. So far as relates to the general management of the institution the past year has been one of good �

Scientific course.

It is believed there are many in the church for whom such provision should be made. There (are) in college about forty Preachers and an additional number �

Self help The best way to make correct useful men is to give them opportunity to help themselves. The great difficulty with this is that they cannot be persuaded to take the time that should be given to complete a college course. They are irregular in attendance and in many respects their education is poor yet in practical sagacity and power in all that constitutes practical they are greatly superior to those who furnished the means to secure an education with no special sacrifice. �
