HE charter of St. JQhn's College was granted in 1784, and the institution opened in 1789. ·But under another form and name it had been doing its work during nearly a hundred previous years, and is, therefore, one of the oldest collegf's in the country. At the city of St. Mary's, then the capi•al of Maryland, as ei1rly as 1671, the upper house of the General Assembly passed an act "for founding and erecting a school or college for the education of youth in learning and virtue" This was followed by the act of 1696, establishing KING WILLIAM'S SCHOOL, which was opened in 1701. Here were educated some of the most distinguished sons of Maryland-physicians, lawyers, statesmen, clergymen-and pre-eminent among the brilliant number was William Pinkney, whose learning and eloquence have a national fame. KIN& WILI.IAM's SCHOOL was, in 1784, merged into St. John's College, which has thus been connected with the State of Maryland from the early times of colonial history. Francis Scott Key, author of our favorite national ocle, and Reverdy Johnson, distinguished 11s a lawyer and a statesman, are among its alumni, and many others, scarcely less eminent, could be mentioned .. The college is pleasantly situated at Annapolis, on the banks of the Severn river, a few miles from the Chesapeake bay. Nothing in the country surpasses the picturesque beauty of its situation. The college green is spacious, amply shaded, and most attractive to the eye, while the campus, in the rear, is admirably adapted for ·sports. Bordering the grounds, "College Creek," a branch of the Severn, affords every facility for swimming and boating. lnclccd, 1. �------------------... ~ 11 10 the situation combines every advantage desirable for a college. The buildings are large, commodious, and well adapted for purposes of both classical and technical education, and could accommodate two hundred students. _ Annapolis has railroad communication with Baltimore and Washington three times a day, daily steamboat connection with the former city, and telegraphic connection with every part of the country. Course of Study. The Preparatory Department of the college has three classes, entitled first, second and third, according to the grade .of studies. Students of the First Preparatory Class, who pass a satisfactory examination, are qualified for admission into the Freshman Class of the college. The Collegiate Depa1·tment embraces three courses: First, the i·egular Academic Course, occupying four years, and pursued in the Freshman, Sophomore, Junior and Senior classes, entitling the graduates of the Senior Class who shall pass a satisfactory examination to the degree of Bachewr of Arts. Second, the Select Course, embracing studies in the different classes, according t9 the option of parents, and entitling the students who shall complete the course and sustain a satisfactory examination in any special study to the degree of Proficient in that study. Third, the Postgraduate Course, prescribed for students who aspire to the degree of Master of Arts, which is conferred only on such graduates of the regular Academic course as shall pursue for two years, at the collPge or elsewhere, a course of study assigned by the Faculty, and who shall furnish satisfactory evidence of their proficiency in said course by stated examinations, 01· by 'submitting to the Faculty, at designated periods, such written theses as may be apecifically required of each candidate for said degree. The degree of Master of Arts is not conferred in course, but only on the evidence of attainments in advanced studies. For course in Mechanical Engineering see page 19. Time and Terms of Admission. The regular examinations for admission into the College or the Preparatory Department are held on the third Wednesday and following Thursday of September in each year, and candidates for admission are requested to be present, if possible, on those days. Testimonials of good moral character ?1ust be fumished by each applicant, those of former teachers bemg preferred, and, if from another college, he must present a certificate of honorable discharge. Candidates for the degree of Bachelor of Arts, to obtain admission to the Freshman Class, must, unless they have passed through the regular course in the Preparatory Department, sustain an examination in the following studies : English Grammar; U. 8. History; History of England; Ancient ancl Modern Geography; Physical Geography; Arithmetic; Algebra through Quadra+,ic Equations, especially Factoring and Fractions; Hadley's, Goodwin's or Kuhner's Greek Grammar; Greek Read"lr; Xenophon's Anabasis: Harkness', Gildersleeve's or Allen and Greenough's Latin Grammar; Cresar's Commentaries, or some equivalent; Ovid; Virgil; Latin and Greek Composition. .- .i ~ I I Candidates for admission to any higher class must be examined in all the previous studies of the class they propose to enter. Students pursuing a Select Course may enter any classes for which they are fitted, the number of their studies being subject to the direction of the Faculty. Candidates for admission into the lowest class of the Preparatory Department must be well grounded in the elements of a primary English education. They will be examined in Reading, Writing, Spelling, Arithmetic, Geography and English Grammar. �12 13 SCHEME OF STUDIES IN THE COLLEGIATE OOURSE OF STUDIES FOR THE Third Preparatory Class.

MILITARY SCIENCE AND TACTICS-Under Section 1225 of the Revised Statutes of the United States, relating to Military· Instruction in Colleges and Universities, this College has secured the services of an Officer of the U. S. Army as Professor of Military Science and Tactics, and, by the same authority, is supplied with arms and accoutrements for the use and instruction of the students as Milltary Cadets. The students are at present divided into two companies and are drilled four times a week in United States Army Tactics, infantry and artillery. The course also includes a weekly lecture on Military History, the individual instruction of Cadet Officers, Court Martial and Guard duty, construction of Field Works, and Target Practice. All students (except such as may be physically disqualified) are required to engage in the military exercises as a part of their physical training. A suit of blue, with caps to match, of good material and workmanship, has been selected as the uniform of the cadets, and is required for the miVtary dl'ills and parades. The unifol'ms will hereafter be made in Annapolis under the supervision of the President and Military Instructor. This Department of the College is confidently recommended to the favorable consideration of parents and guardians as being efficiently conducted, highly important as a means of discipline, and promotive of a vigorous and harmonious physical development. �--------------·~ 22 23 average of 2.5 on the recitations of the whole session, and the same average on the semi-annual and annual examinations com· bined. Demerits will be given for all absences not excused, and for violation of college regulations. Reports respecting conduct and scholarship will be sent every month to the parents or guardians of students. Whenever any student of the Collegiate Department has 100 demerits for any one term, or 150 for the year, or any student of the Preparatory Department has 125 demerits for any one term, or 200 for the yenr, he must leave the institution. Each student is required to obey all the laws of the college so long- as he shall remain a member of it, and whenever any student can no longer cheerfully comply with college rules he will be required to leave the institution.

A Young Men's Christian Association is in active ancl successful operation, and has been productive of much good. The Society of Alumni holds its annual meetings on the day preceding Commencement Day, on which occasion an oration is delivered by one of its members. All former students who have completed their collegiate education (whether graduates or not) at St. John's College, and left in good standing, are considered mem· bers of this society. It numbers on its roll many names prominent in the history of the State. PUBLIC WORSHIP. ·The exercises of each day are opene:l with the reading of the Scripture ancl prnyer in the College Hall. All students are required to attend public ·worship on Sundays at such church as their .p~rents or guardians may d\i·ect, and to abstain from whatever 1s mconsistent with a due observance of the Sabbath.

These scholarships are tenable for four years, and the incumbents are required by law to pledge themselves that they will continue students of the college for· the full term of four years, unless prevented by unavoidable necessity, and Uiat they will teach school within the State for not less than two ycnrs after lcaying college. To obtain a full collegiate education, the object contemplated by the act, candidates moral �shoulctbe--p1•epared to enter at least the Freshman Class of the college. The Boards of School Commissioners are earnestly re-quested to exercise great care in the selection of these students, and especially to appoint none deficient in preparation. The faculty is empowered to extend the term of these scholarships one year in case of worthy students. The incumbents of these scholarships will hereafter be required to provide their own text-books, and to pay iuto the trer1sury of the college, at the beginning of each term, the snm of $37.50. There are at this date (August 1, 188,'J), eight vl!cancies in these scholarships, viz., one each from the counties of Allegany, Baltimore, CaIToll, Cecil, Garrett, Prince George, and Wicomico, and from the Third Legislative District of Baltimore City. In filling these vacancies the Boards of School Commissioners are requested (other things being equal) to appoint tliose camli~ dates who are not less than sixteen years of age and are most advanced in their studies. It is desired that all applicants hereafter should be prepared, in at least mathematics and English studies, to enter the Freshman Class of the college. ~The Secretaries of the several School Boanls arc requested to communicate to the President of the college the nmnes of those former incumbents of these scholarships who are now, OJ' may hereafter be, employed in teaching in their respective counties or in the City of Baltimore.

HE charter of St. John's College was granted in 1784, and the institution opened in 1789. But under another form and name it had been doing its work during nearly a hundred previous years, and is, therefore, one of the oldest colleges in the country. At the city of St. Mary's, then the capital of Maryland, as early as 1671, the upper house of the General Assembly passed an act "for founding and erecting a school or college for the educa1ion of youth in learning and virtue." This was followed by the act of 1696, establishing KING WILLIAM'S SCHOOL, which was opened in 1701. Here were educated some of the most distinguished sons of Maryland-physicians, lawyers, statesmen, clergymen-and pre-eminent among the brilliant number was William Pinkney, whose_ learning and eloquence have a national fame. KING WILLIAM'S SCHOOL was, in 1784, merged into St. John's College, which has thus been connected with the State of Maryland from the early times of colonial history. Francis Scott Key, author of our favorite national ode, and Reverdy Johnson, distingui~hed as a lawyer and a statesman, are among its alumni, and many others, scarcely leEs eminent, could be mentioned. The college is pleasantly situated at Annapolis, on the banks of the Severn river, a few miles from the Chesapeake bay. Nothing in the country surpasses the picturesque beauty of its situa- �10 11 tion. The college green is spacious, amply shaded, and most attractive to the eye, while the campus, in the rear, is admirably adapted for sports. Bordering the grounds, "College Creek," a branch of the Severn, affords every facility for swimming and boating. Indeed, the situation combines every advantage desirable for a college. The buildings are large, commodious, and well adapted for purposes of both classical and technical education, and could accommodate two hundred students. Annapolis has railroad communication with Baltimore and Washington three times a day, daily steamboat connection with the former city, and telegraphic connection with every part of the country. The regular examinations for admission into the College or the Preparatory Department are held o·n the third Wednesday and following Thursday of September in each year. All candidates for admission are requested to be present on those days. Testimonials of good moral character must be furnished by each appli· cant, those of former teachers being preferred, and, if from another college, he must present a certificate of honorable discharge. Candidates for the degree of Bachelor of Arts, to obtain admis· sion to the Freshman Class, must, unless they have passed through the regular course in the Preparatory Department, sustain an examination in the following studies: COURSE OF STUDY. The Preparatory Department of the college has three classes, entitled first, second and third, according to the grade of studies. Students of the First Preparatory Class, who pass a satisfactory examination, are qualified for admission into the Freshman Class of the college. The Collegiate Department embraces three courses: First, the regular Academic Course, occupying four years, and pursued in the Freshman, Sophomore, Junior and Senior classes, entitling the graduates of the Senior Class who shall pass a satisfactory examination to the degree of Bachel?1' of Arts. Second, the Select Course, embracing studies in the different classes, according to the option of pa.rents, and entitling the students who shall complete the course and sustain a sB.tisfactory examination in any special study to the degree of Proficient in that study.

Le J, I I I• �18 19 REMARKS ON STUDIES. V. HISTORY AND THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE AND LITERATURElncluding Medireval and Modern History, and the History of the English Language and Literature. Prof. HAGNER. VI. MECHANICAL ENGINEERING. Prof. WHITHAM. The Department of Natural Sciences having been recently reorganized, the following outline of the courses in that department is appended : No student will be permitted to discontinue any study except at the close of a term, and then only at the written request of his parent or guardian. Students who do not study Greek will be required to study French or German, and those who do not study either Latin or Greek will be required to study both French and German. These languages will be commenced by such students in the Freshman Class. Students of the regular Academic Course are required to study either French or German during the Junior year, and both French and German dming the Senior year, unless they shall have completed the three years' course in these languages before reaching the Junior or Senior year. For classical students below the Junior Class the French and German languages are elective studies. Apparatus for gymnastic exercises has been erected, the use of which is granted on payment of a small fee. 4 COURSE OF INSTRUCTION. 'J'he course of instruction embraces the following dr.partmenls : I. ANCmNT LANGUAGES-including the Latin and Greek languages, Greek and Roman History, Antiquities and Mythology, and the History of Greek and Roman Literature. Prof. HOPKINS. II. MODERN LANGUAGES-Including the French and German Languages and Literature. Profs. LEROUX and HOPKINS. III. MATHEMATICS-Including Pure Mathematics, Mechanics and Astronomy. Prof. HAGNER. IV. NATURAL SCIENC:JE-lncluding Natural Philosophy and Chemistry. Prof. DAY. CJollegiate CJourse in Scientific Branches. In the prosecution of study in the scientific department, an effort is made not to flood the memories of students with a long list of facts, but rather in the first place to inculcate a love of truth with habits of careful observation, and in tlie second place to develop, encourage and train a tendency to think intelligently in regard to natural phenomena and to res.son back from an observed phenomenon to its cause. The great value of scientific study in a collegiate course, as a medium of mental discipline, is becoming more and more apparent every day to those interested in education, and in view gf the fact that this disciplinary effect is enhanced iu proportion to the amount of experimental work performed by the student himself, every effort is made constantly to improve laboratory facilities. I. PHYSICS-The course in Physics is pursued and is completed by the Sophomore Class. It consists in study from a text book, supplemented by experimental lectures and by laboratory work on the part of the student. Each student is required, on completing a given laboratory exercise, to write a careful statement of the observations he has made and the conclusions he has drawn from them. This statement is carefully read and criticised by the instructor. The text book in use is" Stuart's Physics with Hill's Questions." " Ganot's Physics" is used for reference. 11. CHEMISTRY-The course in Chemistry covers the Junior and Senior years. The work of the Junior class is confined to the so-called" non-metals," and the laboratory work of this class is intended especially to cultivate the observing powers and to illustrate carefully the most important general principles of chem- �20 21 istry, a thorough understanding of which is regarded as a matter of the highest importance. Dnring the first term of the Senior year tke study of the " metals" is taken_ up : the laboratory practice, while in itself of a somewhat more special or technical character than that of the previous year, still has for its aim the demonstration of fundamental laws rather than the detailed study of particular bodies. During tlie second term of the Senior year a course of lectures on the " Chemistry of Carbon Compounds," or "Organic Chemistry," will be given. These lectures will constitute a very important part of the course iu Chemistry, ns it is in this pn't of the whole field that many of the most important chemical theories have been developed. Candidates for this degree are required to select at least two of the departments of study specified in this catalogue, and, under tlie direction of the professors in these departinents, to pursue their studies for the two years of the Post-Graduate Course, submitting to them such essays, or undergoing such oral or written examinations, as may be required to test their qualifications for this degree. The foregoing statements apply particularly, it will be remembered, to the general course in Chemistry. Students who desire to make Chemistry a specialty will be afforded ample opportunity for s.pecial work, although they will first be required to take the general course before entering upon work of a strictly technical character. The text books used are as follows : "JUNIOR-Miller's Elements of Inorganic Chemistry." "SENIOR-Same as above and Beilstein's Manual of Analysis." SPECIAL STUDENTS-" Fresenius' Qualitative and Quantitntive Analysis," also other booke which may be ndnpted to special cnses. The studies of the several cla~ses have been so arranged as to make instruction in the sciences a prominent part of the Collegiate Course. Additions will from time to time be made to tlle philosophical apparatus, and every effort used to make the laboratory nnd cabinet as complete as possible. Contributions for illustration of any of the branches of this department will be thankfully received. POST-GRADUATE COURSE. The Post-Graduate Course of Studies, extending through two years, and pursued at the college or elsewhere, is assigned by the faculty to candidates for the degree of Maste1· of Arts. EXAMINATIONS, REPORTS, CONDUCT. Written examinations on the studies of the entire term are held at the close of each term. The marks for these examinations are combined with the marks for daily recitations to make up the student's standing for the term. Any student whose examinations, at the close of a year, shall evince an incapacity on his part to pursue with advantage the studies of the class to which he belongs, will have offered to hiru, on the first day of the next year, an opportunity to' retrieve his lost position, and, in default of doing so, will be reduced to a lower class. A student deficient in knowledge, or persistently neglectful of any study, is at any time liable to be reduced to a lower class in that study. A merit roll is kept, and each recitation noted on the grade of from 0 to 5. In order to pass from a lower to a higher class in any study, each student must obtain an average of 2.5 on the recitations and on the examinations of the second term, and also au average of 2.5 on the recitations of the whole session, and the same average on the semi-annual and annual examinations combined. Demerits will be given for all absences not excused and for violation of college regulations. Reports respecting conduct and scholarship, including all absences from college exercises, will be sent every term to the paren~s or guardians of students of tbe college classes, and monthly to those of students of the preparatory classes. Whenever any student of the Collegiate Department has 100 demerits for any one te1·m, or 150 for the year, or any student of the Preparatory Department has 125 demerits for any one term, or 200 for the year, he must leave the institution. Each student is required to obey all the laws of the college so long as he shall remain a member of it., and whenever any student I �------------------.. . . ------~~~=c::=====~----~1 22 23 can no longer cheerfully comply with college rules he will be required to leave the institution. AU students are required to be present promptly on the opening day of tll6 stJtJsion, and no student will be permitted to leave the college while college exercises are progressing, except fa cases of urgent necessity, and at the written request of his parent or guardian. The attention of parents and guardians is speciaUy called to these regulo,tions, and their co-operation earnestly requested. They are also solicited, on the occasion of liolidays, not to detain students at home beyond the time aUotted for suspension of college exercises. Students absent from any cause except p1·otracted sickness will be marked zero .on all recitations made during their aisence. When the cause of abse11ce is satisfactory to the faculty they will be allowed to make up 1716 omitted recitations. any student who has failed to receive the passing mark (2.5) in any one study for the academic year. DEGREES.· The following academic degrees are conferred by the college : The degree of Master of Arts, conferred after completion of the Post-Graduate Course of studies. The degree of Bachelor of Arts, conferred upon students of the Senior Class who shall obtain an average of 3.75 on all the studies of the Senior year. The Degree of ProfllJ'ient, conferred upon Students of the Select Course who shall complete the course and obtain an average,pf 4 in any special study during the last year of the course in that study, and upon students of the regular Academic Course in any elective study in which they shall complete the course and obtain a like average. The degree of Distinguished ProftlJ'ient is similarly conferred upon any student who shall obtain an average of 4.5 in any special study. Certificates of Distinction of the First and of the &cond Grade are presented to those students in any class who shall have obtained an average of 4.5 and of 4 respectively in all their studies and in conduct for the academic year. Students who have obtained an average of 4.5 in auy one branch of study are honorably mentioned; but no student is honorably mentioned, nor is any certificate or degree conferred upon LIBRARY. The library of the college consists of about 6,000 volumes, the use. of which is permitted to the students under certain regulations. Through the liberality of the Legislature of 1872, and donations from the classes of '71, '72 and '73, extensive additions have been made to the Library, and, by means of the regular Library fund, subscriptions have been made to a number of American and Foreign periodicals. A complete library being an indispensable auxiliary to the intellectual advancement of professors and students, the claims of the college Library are commended to the alumni of the college and to the friends of education in the State. Any contributions of books or funds for the Library will be gratefully acknowledged. LITERARY SOCIETIES. There are two Literary Societies (the Philokalian and the Philomathean) among the students, which afford opportunities for the cultivation of composition and debate. An oration is usually delivered before th1:se societies, on the Tuesday preceding Commencement Day, by some gentleman selected by them. YOUNG MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION. A Young Men's Christian Association is in active and successful operation, and has been productive of much good. SOCIETY OF ALUMNI. The Society of Alumni holds its annual meetings on the day preceding Commencement Day, on.which occasion an oration is delivered by one of its members. All former students who have completed their collegiate education at St. John's College, and left in good standing, are considered members of this society. It numbers on its roll many names prominent in the history of the State. �I 24 PUBLIC WORSHIP. The exercises of each day are opened with the reading of the Scripture and prayer in the College Hall. All students are required to attend public worship on Sundays at su~h church as their parents or guardians may direct, aud to abstam from whatever is inconsistent with a due observance of th_e Sabbath. The principles and duties of the Christian Religion will be constantly enforced in the teaching and in the discipline of the college, but no instruction whatever is given or influence exerted in the interest of any particular denomination of Christians. TERMS AND VACATIONS. The Annual Commencement of the college takes place on the last Thursday in June. The collegiate year begins on the third Wednesday in September and ends on the last Thursday in June. The year is divided into two equal terms. The regular vacations extend fro tr. the last Thursday in June to the third Wednesday in September, and from the 23d of December to the first Monday in January, both inclusive.. The 22d of February, Good Friday, E·1ster Monday and the 4th of July are holidays, as is also the Day of Public Thanksgiving appointed by the Governor of Maryland or by the President of the United States. EXPENSES. The charge for the entire scholastic year, beginning on the third Wednesday in September and ending on the last Thursday in June, for students lodging and boarding in the College Halls is $275.00, not including a fee of $1.50 per term which each stu'. dent is required to deposit with the Treasurer, to be paid by him to such church as the student may attend. This amount covers all the ordin11ry college expenses for board~rs except text-b?oks, and must be invariably paid semi-annually in advance; that 1s, $137.50 at the opening of the first term in September, and $137.50 at the opening of the second term, on the 15th of February following. No deduction wilt be made except for the protracted absence of a student caused by his sickness. 25 For students lodging in the College:·Halls and having table bOai'd elsewhere a proportionate deduction will be made for the session. For charges paid by incumbents of Senatorial Sciholarships see page 27. The fees of students who reside in Annapolis are as follows : In tlie Preparatory Department, ffJr each term, payable in advance, for tuition and alt other charges.

Students holding Senatorial Scholarships are required to lodge in the College Halls and board at the College Commons. The same requirement is also ordinarily made of other students whose parents do not reside in the city of Annapolis; but upon the request in writing of his parent or guardian, at the beginning of a term, the President may, in his d~scretion, allow a student to board in the city, in the family of any 1·elative or friend who may be willing to uecome responsible for the orderly depo; tmeut of such student. But no boarder in the College Commons will be allowed to change his place of boarding until all arrearages shall have been paid. �26 27 Students not holding Senatorial Scholarships are required to provide themselves with furnitme, including stove. Fnniture may, however, be hired from the Steward at a reasonable rate. The boarding honse will be closed dnring t,he Christmas and Summer vacations. Disbursements will be made for personal expenses of students if funds shall be deposited Joy parents for this purpose, but no advanceB wilt be made by the college. Books will also be furnished to students, provided a deposit of ten dollars be made for that pnrpose at the beginning of each term. At final settlement the unexpended balar:.;:e, if aay, will be refunded. The incumbents of these scholarships will hereafter be required to provide_their"own text-books, and to pay into the treasury of the college, at the beginning of each term, the sum of $37.50. There are at this date, July 1, 1884, fourteen vacancies in these scholarships, viz.: one each from the conuties of Anne Arundel Cecil, Charles, Dorchester, Howard, Kent, Montgomery, Quee~ Anne's, St. Mary's, Somerset, Washington and Worcester, and the First and Second Legislative Districts of Baltimore City. In filling these vacancies the Boards of School Commissioners are requested (other things being equal) to appoint those candidates~who are not less than sixt:en years of age and are most advanced in their studie3. It is desired that all applicants herenfter should be prepared, in at least mathematics and English stndies, to enter the Freshman Class of the college. ifirThe Secretaries of the several School Boards are)·equested to comrnnnicate to the President of the college the names of those former'incumbents_of these scholarships~ who are now, or may llereafter be, employed in teaching.in their respective counties or ia the City of Baltimore. STATE SCHOLARSHIPS FOR BOARD AND TUITION. The General Assembly of the State (Acts of 1872, chapter 393, and 1878, chapter 315) has provided for furnishiag board, fuel, lights and washing to the incumbent of one State Scholarship from each Senatorial District in the state, to be appointed by the Board of School Commissioners; by and with the advice and consent of the Senators in their respective districts, after competitive examination. The law 1·equires that the candidates shall produce befo1·e the Boai·d of School Commissioners satiefactory widen~d of th~ii' moral character, and of their inability, or the in'Lbflity of their parents or guardians, to pay the regulai· college charges. A blank form of certificate, drawn in conformity to the above law, will be forwarded to the Secretaries of the several school boards for the use of the appointees to the said scholarships. These scholarships are tmable for four years, and the incumbents are required by law to pledge themselves that they will continue students of the college for the full term of four years, unless prevented by unavoidable necessity, and that they will teach school within the State for not less than two years after leaving college. To o!Jtuin a full collegiate education, the object contemplated by the act, candidates should btl prepared to enter at least the Freshman Class of the college. The Boards of School Commissioners are ea1·neslly' i·equested to exercise great care in the selection of these students, and especially to appoint none deficient in preparation. The faculty is empowered to extend the term of these scholarships o.ne year in the case of worthy students. COLLEGIATE SCHOLARSHIPS. The following regulations have been made by the Board of Visitors and Governors for the establishment of scholarships in connection with the· ·college: For a permanent scholarship for tuition, $1,200. For a permanent scholarship for board and tuilion, $4,000. For a scholarship for the tuition of a studrnt_tluough all the college classes, $300. For a scholarship for the board anu tuition of a student through all the college classes, $1,000. For any other scholarships the sam reduced shall l.Je in the same proportion, the money in each case to be paid ii~ advance into the treasury of the college.

Ve1·y soon our institution can claim a century of existence. But under another form and nnme it had been doing its work during nearly a hundred previous years, and is. therefore, one of the oldest colleges of our country. At the city of St. Mary's, then the capital of Maryland, as early as A. D. 1G71, the upper house of the General Assembly passed nn act "for founding and erecting a school or college for the education of youth in learning and virtue." This was followed by the act of A. D. 1696. KING WrLLIAM's SCHOOL, however, was· not opened until A. D. 1701. Here were educated some of the most distinguished sons of Maryland-physicians, lawyers, statesmen, clergymen-and pre eminent among the brilliant number was Wiiliam Pinkney, whose learning and eloquence have a national fame. KING WILLIAM'S ScrrooL was, in A. D. 1784, merged into St. John's College, which has thus been connected with the State of Maryland from the early times of colonial history. Francis Scott Key, author of our favorite nationnl ode, and Reverdy Johnson, distinguished as a lawyer and a statesman, were among our alunini. Others, scarcely less eminent, could be mentioned. Our venerable institution appeals to all that is most tender and sacred in the hearts of Marylanders This CENTENNIAL year of her charter gives her the riglit to remind t.h~m of this fact. • I. �,, i 'I ... I 10 The college is pleasantly situated at Annapoli~, on the banke of the Severn river, a few miles from the Chesapeake bay. Nothing in the country surpasses the picturesque beauty of our situation. Our college green is spacious, amply shaded and most attractive to the eye, while our cnmpus, in the rear, is admirubly adapted for sports. Bordering our grounds, "College Creek," a branch of the Severn, affords every facility for swimming and boating. Indeed, the situation combines every advantage desirable for a college. The buildings are large, commodious, anu well adapted for purposes of both classical and technical euucation, and could accommodate two hundred students. We can especially recommend to parrnts ancl guardians our Preparatory Depar:1'1ent as completely organized and efficiently conducted. Annapolis has rnilroad communication with Bnltimorc anu Washington three times a dlty, daily steamboat connection with the former citj, and telegraphic connection with every part of the country. 11 ' I COURSE OF STUDY. The Preparatory Department ·of the college has three classes, entitled first, second and thinl, according to the grade of studies. Students of the First Preparatory Ulass who pa~s a satisfactory examination are qualified for admission into the Freshman Class of the college. The Collegiate Department embraces three courses: First, the regular Academic Course, including Greek am] Latin, occupying four years, and pursued in the Freshman, Sophomore, J:unior and Senior classes, entitlmg the graduates of the Senior Class who shall pass a satisfa1 tory examination to the degree of B1ichelor of Arts. Second, the Select Course, embracing studies in the different classes, according to the option of parents, and entitling the students who shall complete the course and sustain a satisfactory examination in any special study to the degree of Proji.eient in that study. Third, the Post-Graduate Course, prescribed for students who aspire to the degree of Maste1· of Arts, which is conferred only on such graduates of the regular Academic Course as shall pursue for two years, at the college or elsewhere, a course of study assigned by the Faculty, and who shall furnish satisfactory evidence of their proficiency in said course by stated examinations, er by submit· ' i ting to the Faculty, at desig uated periods, such written theses as may be specifically required of each candidate for said degree. The degree of Master of Arts is not conferred in course, but only on the evidence of attainments in advanced studies. The Spanish Language, Vocal and Instrumental Music, Drawing and Painting, are taught at special charges, on terms arranged between students and the professors of those brunches. TIME AND 'l'ERMS OF ADMI~SION. The regular examinations for admission into the College or the Preparatory Department nrc heltl on the third Wednesday and following Thursday of September in each year All candidates for admission are requested to be present. on those days. Testimonials of good moral character must be furnished by each applicant, those of former tenchers being preferred, and, if from another college, he must present a certificate of honomble discharge. Candidates for the degree of Bachelor of .A.rts, to obtain admission to the Freshman Class, must, unless they have passed through the regular course in the Preparatory Department, sustain an examination in the following studies: English Grammar; U. S. History; History or England; Ancient and Mo<lern Geograpky; Physical Geography; Arithmetic; Algebra through Quadralic Equatio'!s, eepecially Factoring and Fractions; Hadley's, Goodwin'~ or Kuhner,s Greek Grammar; Greek Reader; Xenophon's Ana.basis; Hark~ess', Gildersleeve'd or Allen and Greenough's Latin Grammar; Cresar s Commentaries, or some equivalent; Ovid; Vlrg!l; Latin and Greek Composition. Candidates for admission to any high'er class must be examined in all the previous studies of the class they propose to enter. Students pursuing a Select Course may enter any classes for which they are fitted, the number of their studies being subject to the direction of the Faculty. Candidates for admission into the lowest clnss of the Preparatory Department must be well grounded in the elements of a primary English education .. They will be examined in Reading, Writing, Spelling, Arithmetic, Geography and English Grammar. 1 11 i I I I I i I I, �~~===-====~==--:-====-. . ,---~=================--~--1 12 SCHEME OF STUDIES IN THE PREPARATORY DEPARTMENT.

EXAMINATIONS, REPORTS, CONDUCT. Writt<m examinations on the studies of the entire term•nre held at the close of each term. The marks for these examinations nre combined with the marks for daily recitations to make up the student's standing for the term. Any student whose examinations, 1tt the close of a yenr, shall evince an incapacity on his part to pmsue with ndvantage the studies of the class, to which he belongs, will Jutve offt·red to him, olti.the first. day of the next year, an opportunity to retrieve l!is lost position, and, in default of doing so, will he reduced to a lower class. A stnrlent tlcfident in knowledge, or persistently neglectful of nny stLHly, is at nny time liable to be reduced ton lower class iu thnt study. �20 21 A merit roll is kept, and each recitation noted on the gmde of from 0 to 5. In order to pnss from a lower ton higher class in any study each stmlent must obtain an average of 2.5 on the recitations and on the examinations of the second term, and also an average uf 2.5 on the recitations of the \Vhole session, nnd the s~me average on the semi-1mnnal end annual c:xaminations combined. Demerits will be ghcu for absences not excused and for violation of college regulations. Reports respecting conduct and scholarship, including all absences from college exercises, will be sent e>cry term to the parents or guardian·s of students of the c.ollege classes, and monthly to those of students of the preparatory classes. Whenever any student of the Collegiate Department has 100 demerits for any one term or 150 for the year, or any student of the Preparatory Department has 125 demerits for any one term or 200 for the year, he must leave the institution. Each student is required to obey all the laws of the college so long as he shall remain a member of it, and whenever any student can no longer cheerfully comply with college rules he will · be required to leave the in~titution. Alt students are i·eqitfred to be preseTit promptly on the opening day of the session, and no student will be permitted to leave tlte college wltile college exercises are progressing, except in cases of urgent necessity, and at the written request of his parent or guardian. The attention of pxrents and guai·dians is .~pecially called to these regulations, and theii' co-operation earnestly i·equested. '1.'hey are also solicited, on the occasion of lwlidays, not to detain students at home beyond Ute time allotted for suspension of college exercises. Students absentf1·om any cause except protracted sickness will be marked eero on all recitations made during theii· absence. When the cause of absence is satiefactory to the faculty they will be allowed to make up the omitted recitations. The degree of Pro.ffoient, conferred upon students of the Select Course who shall complete the cour~e ·and obtain an average of 4 in any special study <luring the lai;t year of the course In that study, and upon stuclents of the reguhir Academic Course in any elective study iu which they shall complete the course aud obtain a like average.

The Library of the college consists of about 6,000 volumes, the use of which is permitted to the stud1mts under certain reguhttions. Through the liberality of the Legislature of 1872 and donations froin the classes of '71, '72 and '73, extensive additions have been made to the Library, and, by mea!Js of the regular Library fund, subscriptions have been made to a large number of American nnd Foreign perioclicnls A complete library being an indispensable auxiliary to the intellectual advancement of professors and students, the claims of the CollAge Library are commended to the alumni of the college 1md to the friends of educat.ion in the State.

EXAMINATIONS, REPORTS, CONDUCT. \Vritten examinations on the studies of the entire term are held at the close of each term. The marks for these examinations are combined with the marks for daily recitations to make up .the ~tudent's standing for the term. Any student whose examrnat10ns at the close of a year shall evince an incapacity on his part to pursue with aclvantaO'e the studies of the class to which he belongs., will have offer~d to him on the firs~ .clay of th~ next year all" opportunity to retrieve his lost pos1t10n, and m default of doing so, will be reduced to a lower class. A s~udent deficient in knowledge, or persistently neO'lectful of any study, is at any time liable to be reduced to0 a lower class in that study. A merit roll is kept, and each recitation noted on the grade of from 0 to 5. In order to pass from a lower to a Circular of St. John's College. 21 higher class, each st?-de_nt must obtaiI~ an ave;ag~ of at least 2.5 each on his rec1tat10ns and on h1ti examrnahons for the Academic year. Demerits ~ill be given for abse?ce, and for violation of College regulations. Reports respectrng con~uct and scholarship, including all absences from College exe;mses, will be sent every 'two months to the parents or guar~ians of the students. Whenever any student of the Colleg1~te department has 100 demeritE for any one term, or 150 for the year, or any student of the Preparatory Department has 125 demerits for any trne term, or 200 for the year, he must leave ihe Institution. Each student is requirer! to obey all the laws of the ColleO'fil so long as he shall remain a member of it; and whenever :ny student can no longer cheerfully c~mp~y with College rules, he· will be required to leave the lnst1tut10n. All Stiidents are reqitired to be present promptly on the opening day of the s.ession, and no spudent wi'.l~ be permitted ~o 1eave the College while College exercises are. going on, exceJ?t i;i cnses of urgent necessity, and ctt the written reqitest qf . his pctrent' or gitardian.

It has been decided to carry forward the Institution on its former basis, with a view to a thorough and .satisfactory reorganization at the close of the coming year. In the meantime we warmly commend it to the patronage of the people under its present management. The new Principal, the Rev. Dr. Leavitt, is known to the country by his various writings, also as Eclitor of the ''American Church Review," as founder of the "International Review," and as President of Lehigh University. He brings to his work ripe experience as well as extensive reputation, and under his leadership we believe our College is entering on a more vigorous existence. We wish it to live in the confidence and the sympathies of the people of Maryland, and ask them to send their sons to be educateclin our venerable institution, so closely linked with the history of the State. On our part we pledge ourselves that every thing possible shall be done for their educational discipline. E8pecially we invoke our Alumni and the friends of the College to exert themselves in .adding to the number of its students during the coming year, .and by every suitable method to extend and perpetuate its 1 GRATTAN HAGNER, A.

STATE SCHOLARSHIPS FOR BOARD AND TUITION. 11 he General Assembly of the State, (Acts of 1872, ch. :393, and 1878, ch. 315,) has provided for furnishing b1rn,rd, fuel, lights and washing to one of the six incumbent8 ofRtate Scholarships for tuition from each SPnatorial District in the State, to be appointed by the Board of School Commissioners. by and with the advic,e and consent of the Senators in their respective Di,stricts, after competitive examination. The law requires that candidates shall prodncti before the Board of School Commissioners satisfactorv evidence of their morn.I character, ancl of their inability: or the inability of their parent8 or giiardians, to pay the regular College charges.These Schohtrships are tenable for four years, and the incmnbei1ts are required by law to pledge themselves that they wili continue students ot the College for the foll term of four years, unless prevented by unavoidable necessity, and that they will teach School within the State for not less than two years after leaving· College. 1'o obtain a full Collegiate' edu-cation, the object contemplated by the Act, candidates shonlrl be prepared to enter at least the Freshman Class of the College; they will not hereafter be received into the Preparatory Department of the College. They are required to pursue the regular Acaclemic CJnrse in order to qmilify themselves for teaching hereafter. The Boards of School Commissioners are ccirnestly requested to exercise great care in the selection of these students, ancl especially to appoint none deficient fo preparation.

In seI:J.ding out the Catalogue of the Thirteenth Session :since the reorganization of ST. Jo1rn's COLLEGE, the Faculty ·would earnestly commend to the people of Maryland the advantages presented by the College for the attainment of a thorough and liberal edu_cation. The location of the College makes it easy of access from ·all portions of the State,. and its situation has been often ·commented on as peculiarly suitable for a Literary Institution. •I '•I The Departments of Instruction are fully organized and in complete working order, and the Course of S1mcly will ·challenge compatisou with that. of most first-class Colleges in the land. 'fhe effort is constantly made to raise the grade and imp1·ove the methods of instruction, and the amount of work done and results attained are not inferior to those of Colleges ''C'lsewhere. The liberality of the Legislature of 1872 has enabled the College to add largely to its Library and Philosopl1ical Apparatus, so that the facilities for scientific study have 'been greatly increased. E~pecially noticeable are th<!: extremely low terms charged (two hundred and seventy-five dollars) for tuition, room rent, board, fuel, lights, and washing-termR much less than those of Colleges in other States, and alto.gether insufficient to maintain the College but for the liberal assistance granted by the ~tate. In Teturn for this assistance, 'when it was first received with no conditions attached, the Board of Visitors and Governors established one hundred and fifty scholarships (six for each Senatorial District in the State,) entitling t.he holders, appointed by the Board of School Comr11issioners of the District, to exemption from payment of fen> fo1· tuition and room rent-thus limiting the charge for board, fuel; lights, and washing, for these students; to two hundr€cl dollars. Means were also provided by the Legislature ofl872 ,[Act amended hy the Legislature of 1878], for making twenty·six of the scholarships (one from each .Senatorial District) free of ap charges for board, foel, light.ti, and washing, uncler •certain conditions specified in the preceding Circular. ' 31 These are the great advantages which the College presDnts for the attainment of a Collegiate education by even the poorest who are properly qualified, to. avail th ems elves, of-them. Such are unable to go beyond ~he borde~s of the State and can thus obtain a liberal educat10r;i at theu very doors. And will those who are able to send their sons to well known Co!leges of other States refuse their patronage to ST. .ToHN s COLLEGE and thus neglect the opportumty now an.cl here afforclecl of building up a College, already th~ equal of rnan_y. of these, and which, by proper SUJ?port ~rom t.he peoJ?le ?± Maryland, may in t~me become tl:e nvalof any .111st1t~t10n m the land? A sufficient amount 1s annually dra;rned f1.0111 the State by.sending her sons abroad .for an educat10n wluch may. he obtained at home, to place tlns College above all want.VY-ill the people neglect th? l~terary ad'.'antages pre~en~e~ here) and go elsewhere for a snmlar education at greate1 cost. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

A system 'of one hundred and fifty State Scholarships has been founded by the Board of Visitors and Governors of St. John's College on the annual donation received by the College Each of these scholarships e_ntitles the from the State. holder, in whose name it is issued, to exemption from the payment of the room rent and tuition fees, if, on examination, he is found qualified to enter any class in the Preparatory Department or College. The Preparatory Department corresponds, in the scope and quality of its studies, to a High School. Each Senatorial District of the State is entitled to six of these scholarships, which are filled by the School Commissioners of each District ; and in case more than six shall be nominated from any District, the Faculty will select the six best qualified to enter the Institution. All Scholars thus selected are required to conform to the rules and regulations of the College. In addition to tuition and room-rent, the College authorities engage during the coming year to furnish board in the College Co.mmons, (including fuel, lights and washing,) to all ,,, '! I I· I �28 Circular oj St. J'ohn's College. Circular of St. John's College. incumbents of State Scholarships at the rate of $200 per annum, payable in advance, in semi-annual instalments of $roo at the beginning of each term in the scholastic year. In mder to. secure greater efficiency to the College, and a higher appreciation of the State's liberality, it is recommended to the Boards of School Commissioners to make these Scholarships the rewards of competitive exq.minations, and to grant certificates to none who are not fully qualified to enter the Preparatory Department of the College. The College has suffered heretofore from lack of preparation on the part of these appointees. There will be two vacancies in these Scholarships at the close of the present session, viz : one from Carroll, and one from Charles county. Books will be furnished hereafter to those students only who hold Senatorial Scholarships for both board and tuition, and if damaged or lost, will be charged to them at their full cost. STATE SCHOLARSHIPS FOR BOARD AND TUITION. p', 1 .i'I The General Assembly of the State, (Acts of 1872. ch. 393, and I 878, ch. 3 I 5,) has provided for furnishing board, fuel, lights and washing to one of the six incumbents of State Scholarships for tuition from each Senatorial District in the State, to be appointed by the Board of School Commissioners, by and with the advice and consent of the Senators in their respective Districts, after competitive examination. The law requires that candidates shall produce before the Board of School Commissioners satisfactory evidence of their moral character, _and of their inability, or the inability of their parents or guardians, to pay the regular College charges .. These Scholarships are tenable for four years, and the incumbents are required by law to pledge. themselves that they will continue students of the College for the full term of four ye_ars, 1Jnle5s prevented by unavoidable necessity, and that they will teach. School within the State for not less than two years after leaving College. To obtain a full Collegiate education, the object contemplated by the Act, candidates should be prepared to enter at least the Freshman Class of the College ; they will not hereafter be received into the Preparatory Department of the College. They are required to pursue the regular Academic Course in order to qualify themselves for teaching ]Jereafter. The Boards of School Commissioners are earnestly requested to exercise great care in the selection of these students, and especially to appoint none deficient m preparation. In filling these vacancies, t~e Boa~ds of Sc~ool Co!11missioners are requested, other thmgs bemg equal, fo appomt those candidates who are at least sixteen years of age and ar.e most advanced in their studies. It is required that all appli• cants hereafter should be prepared, in at least Mathematics and English studies, to enter the Freshman Class of the College. 1 ~The Secretaries of the several School Boards are requested to communicate to the Principal of the College the names of those former incumbents of these Scholarships who are now, or may hereafter be, employed. in teaching in their respective counties, or in the city of _Baltimore. COLLEGIATE SCHOLARSHIPS. The following regulations have been made by the· Board of Visitors and Governors for the establishment of Scholarships in connection with the College : For a permanent Scholarship for tu.it.ion, $rooo. For a permanent Scholarship for board and tmt10n, $3000. For a Scholarship for the tuition of a student through all the College Classes, $250. For a Scholarship for the board and tuition of a student through all the College Classes, $800. For any other Scholarships the sum reduced shall be i1:1 t~e same proportion, the money in each case to be paid m advance into the treasury of the College. The establishment of these Scholarships is commended to the attention of the Alumni and friends of the College. �Czrcular of St. 'John's College. 31 ! , .I To the People of Maryland. In sending out the Catalogue of the Twelfth Session since the reorganization of ST. JOH.l\'S COi.LEGE, the Faculty would earnestly commend to the people of Maryland the advantages presented by the College for the attainment of a thorough and liberel education. The location of the College makes it easy of access from all portions of the State, and its situation has been often commented on as peculiarly· imitable for a Literary Institution. The Departments of Instruction are fully organized and in complete working order, and .the Course of Study will challenge comparison with that of most first-class Colleges in the. land. The effort is constantly made to raise the grade and improve the methods of instruction, and the amount of work done and results attained are not inferior to those of Colleges elsewhere. The liberality of the Legislature of 1872 has enabled the College to add largely to its Library and Philosophical Apparatus, so that the facilities for scientific studyhave been greatly increased. Especially noticeable are the extremely low terms charged (two hundred and seventyfive dollars) for tuition, room rent, board, fuel, lights, and washing-terms much less than those of Colleges in other States, and altogether insufficient to maintain the College but for the liberal assistance granted lzy the State. In return for this assistance, when it was first received with no conditions attached, the Board of Visitors and Governors established one hundred and fifty scholarships (six for each Senatorial District in the State,) entitling the holders, appointed by the Board of School Commissioners of the District, to exemption from payment of fees for tuition and room rent-thus limiting the charge for board, fuel, lights, and washing, for these students, to two hundred dollars. Means were also provided by the Legislature of 1872 [Act amended by the Legislature of 1878], for making twenty-six of the scholarships (one from each Senatorial District) free of all charges for board, fuel, . · lights, and washing, under certain conditions specified in the preceding Circular. These are the great advantages which~ the College presents for the attainment of a Collegiate education by even the poorest who are properly qualified to avail themselves of them. Such are unable to go beyond the borders of the State, and can thus obtain a liberal education at their very doors. And will those who are able to send their sons to well known Colleges of other States refuse their patronage to ST. JOHN'S COLLEGE, and thus neglect the opportunity now and here afforded of building up a College, already the equal of many of these, a1~d which, by proper support from the people of Maryland, may in time become the rival of any institution in the land? A sufficient amount is annually drained from the State by sending her sons abroad for an education which may be obtained at home, to place this College above all want. Will the people neglect the literary advantages presented here, and go elsewhere for a similar education at greater cost ? � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

No student will be permitted to discontinue any study, except at the close of a term, and then only at the written request of his parent or guardian. Students who do not study Greek will be required to study French or German, and those who do not stu~y either Latin or Greek, will be required to study both French and German. These languages will be commenced by such students in the First Preparatory Olass. The studies o~ stu~ents of the Second Preparatory Class who do not study the Classrns, will be so arranged that their time will be fully occupied. Students of the regular Academic Course are required to study either French or German during the Junior and Senior years. For classical students _below t~e Junior Olass, the French and German languages are elective studies. Apparatus for Gymnastic exercises has been erected, and regular hours of exercise assigned for each class. The use of the Gymnasium is granted on payment of a small fee. ----·--COURSE OF INSTRUCTION. The Course of Instruction embraces the following departments: I. ANCIENT LANGUAGES-Including the Latin and Greek language~, Greek and Roman Antiquities and Mythology, and the History of Greek and Roman literature. Prof. DASHIELL and Ass't-Prof. HOPKINS. IL MODERN LANGlJAGES-lncluding the French and German languages and literature. Prof's. LEROUX and HOPKINS. III. MATHEMATICS-Including Pure Mathematics, Mechanics and Astronomy. Prof. JOHNSON. IV.

HISTORY AND THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE AND LITERATURElncluding Ancient and Modern History, the English and Anglo-Saxon languages and their literature, and an outline of the general principles of Comparative Philology. PRINCIPAL. The departments of History and the English Language and Literature, and of Natural Science, having been recently reorganized, the following outline of the courses in tnese departments is appended: DEPAR.TMENT OF HISTOR.Y, AND THE LANGUAGE AND LITERATUR.E. ENGLISH In this department instruction will be givenlst. IN HISTORY.-A thorough knowledge of Greek and Roman history is believed to be the ba~is of all historical study, and these will fir11t be carefully learned. This will 15e followed with a general outline of history, as contained in Thalheimer's Manual of Medireval and Modern History, and illustrated by reference to the BretschneiderSpruner wall-maps. Should the limited time permit, a more particular study of some period of history will complete· the historical course. 2d. IN THE ENGLISH AND ANGLO-SAXON LANGUAGES AND THEIR LITERATURE.-Under this head the art of Composition and Rhetoric will first be studied, with frequent exercises in written composition and declamation, and a thorough analysis of the grammatical structure of the language. The history of English literat.ure will then be taken up, and the lives of authors stud1ed in connection with specimens of their writings, which will be criticised in class. After this the English of Shakspere will be made a specia_l subject of study, and the most marked points of difference between Elizabethan and modern English noted and commented on. This will be included in the critical study of some one of the plays of Shakspere. Finally, the Anglo-Saxon language will be carefully studied, and in 1·1 i.11' :.1 ' 1 11 �i r. 22 CIRCULAR OF ST. JOHN'S COLLEGE. CIRCULAR OF ST. JOHN'S COLLEGE. 23 < • connection with it lectures delivered on the origin and history of the English language, and lectures introductory to the study of Comparative Philology, an outline being given of the classification of languages, particularly the branches and subdivisions of the IndoEuropean family, and of the general principles of Comparative Grammar, after manuscript notes on the lectures of Prof. George Curtius, of Leipzig. DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL SCIENCE. In· this department instruction will be givenlst. IN ZooLOGY-viewing the animal kingdom as a whole, observing the types of organs which, variously modified, pervade the genera, classes, families and branches, in which existing and extinct animals are arrayed, and taking a general survey of comparative anatomy and physiology. · 2d. IN BOTANY-comprehending the anatomy and physiology of plants, and their classification, according to the natural and artificial methods, etc. 3d. IN PHYSICS-examining the fundamental laws of force and its products, motion and equilibrium, and the application of these, first to the action and reaction of masses-solid, liquid, and gaseousembracing mechanics, hydrostatics and pneumatics; second, of molecules, embracing light, heat, electricity and magnetism, in their relations to physics; third, to the interaction of molar and molecular forces, embracing "the correfation and conservation of forces," the whole applied to the explanation of the phenomena of nature and combinations of art. 4th. IN CHEMISTRY-comprehending the laws of heat, electricity, and light, in their chemical relations; a description of the elements and their important compounds, binary and complex, their properties, classification, laws of union and separation, and the theories (atomic and others) by which these are explained; the chemical nomenclature, symbols and notation, and the principles on which they are founded; the whole, as far as possible, illustrated by experiment, and accompanied with instruction in manipulation. · As extended a treatment of these subjects will be given as is possible in the time allowed. ;. ., .. . :.~ ·~,r .'~ i ' In the course above sketched the professor will endeavor, first, to educate the mental faculties of pupils, training them to compare, to .generalize, to ascend .in~uctively from facts to pr~nciples, to descend deductively from prmc1ples to facts; secon,d, to impart such knowledge of its subjects as all liberally educated persons should possess; third, to make it sufficiently thorough to indicate whether any pupil has such natural taste and aptitude for the study of any one of its branches, as should induce him to make its pursuit his special avocation. The studies of the several classes have been so arranged as to make instruction in the sciences a prominent part of the Collegiate course. Additions will from time to time be made to the philosophical apparatus, and every effort used to make the labor!l.tory and cabinet as complete as possible. Contributions for illustration of any .0 f the branches of this department will be thankfully received. POST-GRADUATE COURSE OF STUDIES. The Post-Graduate Course of Studies, extending through two years, and pursued at the College or elsewhere, is assigned by the Faculty to candidates for the degree of Master of Arts. This course will relate mainly to open questions in all departments of physical, literary, philological, or speculative inquiry, and theses in each will be pre- · scribed to candidates according to the current aspects of science and investigation in the most interesting branches of human study and thought. In the assignment of such theses regard will also be had to the favorite studies of the individual candidate, that the spirit of original inquiry in each may be duly encouraged. Candidates for this degree are required:, within three months after . graduation, to select at least two of the departments of stu-iy specified in this Catalogue (pp. 20, 21,) and under the direction of the · Professors in these departments to pursue their studies for the two · years of the Post-Graduate Course, submitting to them such essays, or undergoing such oral or written examinations, as may be required to test their qualifications ·for this degree. f,, '· i !I J I. �' ',· ' I, :·' CIRCULAR OF ST. JOHN'S COLLEGE. CIRCULAR OF ST. JOHN'S COLLEGE. EXAMINATIONS, REPORTS, CONDUCT. DEGREES AND CERTIFICATES. Written examinations on the studies of the entire term are held at the close of each term. The marks for these examinations are combined with the marks for daily recitations, to make up the student's standing for the term. Any student whose examinations at the close of a year shall evince an incapacity on his part to pursue with advantage the studies of the class to which he belongs, will have offered to him on the first day of the next year an opportunity to retrieve his lost position, and in default of doing so, will be reduced to a lower class. A student deficient in knowledge or persistently neglectful of any study, is at any time liable to be reduced to a lower class in that study. A merit roll is kept, and each recitation noted on the grade of from 0 to 5. In order to pass from a lower to a higher class, each student must obtain an average of at least 2.5 each on his recitations and on his examinations for the Academic year. Demerits will be given for absence and for violation of College regulations. Reports respecting conduct and scholarship, including all absences from College exercises, will be sent every two months to the parents or guardians of the students. Whenever any student of the Collegiate Department has 100 demerits for any one term, or 150 for the year, or any student of the Preparatory Department has 125 demerits for any one term, or 200 for the year, he must leave the Institution. Each student is required to obey all the laws of the College, so long as he shall remain a member of it; and whenever any student can no longer cheerfully comply with College rules, he will be required to leave the Institution. All students are required to be p1·esent promptly on the opening day of t!te session, and no student will be permitted to leave the College while College exercises are going on, except in cases of urgent necessity, and at the written reguest of his parent or guardian. The attention of parents and guardians is .<;pecially called to these regulations, and their co-operatzon earnestly requested. They are also earnestly solicited, on the occasion of holidays, not to detain students at home beyond the time allotted for suspen.sion of College exercises. Students absent from any cause except pro. tracted sickness, will be marked zero on all recitations made during th.eir absence. When the cause nf absence is satisfactory to the Facnlty, they will be allowed to make up the omitted recitations. / The following Academic Degrees are conferred by the College : The Degree of Master of Arts, conferred after completion of the Post-Graduate Course of Studies. The Degree of Bachelor oj Arts, conferred upon students of t~e Senior Class who shall obtain an average of 3.75 on all the studies of the Senior year. The Degree of Proficient, conferred upon students of the Select Course, who shall complete the course and obtain an a:erage of 4 in any special study during the last year of the course m that study, and upon students of the regular Academic Course in any elective study in which they shall complete the course and obtair: a like average. . . . . . . The Degree of Distinguished Proficient is s1~1larly confe~red upon any student who shall obtain an aver~ge of 4.5 m any special study, Certificates of Distinction of the First and of the Second Grade are presented on Commencement Day to those students in an_y Cla~s who shall have obtained an average of 4.5 and of 4 respectively m all their studies and in Conduct for the Academic year. Students who have obtained an average of 4.5 in any one branch of study are honorably mentioned on Commencement day, but no student is honorably mentioned, nor is any Certificate or Degree conferred upon any student who has received an average of less than 2.5 in any one study for the Academic year.

The Library of the College consists of about 5,000 volumes, the use of which is permitted to the students under certain regulations. Through the liberality of the Legislature of 1872, and donations from the classes of '71, '72 and '73, large additions have been made t~ the Library; and, by means of the regular Library fees, subscript10~s ~ave been made to a large number of American and foreign per1~d10als. A complete library being an indispensable auxiliary to the mtellectual .advancement of Professors and students, the claims of the CollAge Library are commended to the Alumni of the College, and to the friends of educ_ation in the State. Any contributions of books or funds for the Library will be gratefully acknowledged. SOCIETY OF .ALUMINI. The Soc~ety of Alumni holds its 11.nnual meetings on Commencement Day, on which occasion an oratiop. is delivered by one of its 1 : members.

The 22d of February, Good Friday, and the 4th of July are holidays, as also the Day of Public Thanksgiving, appointed by the Governor of Maryland, or by the President of the United States. LITERARY SOCIETIES. There are two Literary Societies (the Philokalian and the Philomathean) among the students, which afford opportunities for the cultivation of composition and debate. An oration is usually delivered before these Societies on the day preceeding Commencement Day, by some gentleman selected by them. I . . ·1 ii III. Society of Alitmni Prizes.

Students. not holding Sch.olarships which entitle them to both board and tuition free, are required to provide themselves with furni. ture, including stoves. Furnitt1re may, however, be hired from the Steward at a reasonable rate. Board at special rates, in clubs, may be had on terms arranged between parents and the manager of the boarding department. Students boarding in the College are required to have their clothing distinctly marked. The boarding-house will be closed during the . Christmas and Summer vacations. Books and stationery will be furnished at the lowel!lt possible rates, and disbursements made for personal expenses of students, if .funds shall be deposited by parents for this purpose, but no advance.~ will be made by the College. - •rhe tuition fees of students who reside in Annapolis are as follows: ·issued, to exemption from the payment of the room-rent and tuition fees, if, on exa;mination, he is found qualified to enter any class in the Preparatory Department or College. The Preparatory Department corresponds, in the scope and quality of its studies, to a High School. Each Senatorial District of the State is entitled to six of these scholarships, which are filled by the School Commissioners of each District; and in case more than six shall be nominated from any District, the Faculty wm select the six best qualified to enter the Institution. All Scholars thus selected are required to conform to the rules and regulations of the College. In addition to tuition and room-rent, the College authorities engage during the coming year to furnish board in the College Commons, (including fuel, lights and washing,) to all incumbents ·of Atate Scholarships at the rate of $200 per annum, payable in advance, in semi-annual instalments of $100 at the beginning of each term in the scholastic year. In order to secure greater efficiency to the College, and a higher appreciation of the State's liberality, it is recommended to the Boards of School Commissioners to make these Scholarships the re" wards of competitive examinations, and to grant certificates to none who are not fully qualified to enter the Preparatory Department of the College. The College has suffered heretofore from lack of preparation on the part of these appointees. Books will be furnished hereafter to those students only who hold Senatorial Scholarships for both boa.rd and tuition, and if damaged or lost, will be charged to them at their full cost. In the Preparatory Department, for each term, payable in advance $30 00 In the Collegiate Department, for each term, payable in advance . 45.00 The extra charges, als0 payablEl in advance, by all Students, are as follows : Seat in Church, per term, (paid by boarders) 1.50 Library Fee 5.00 Repairs and ordinary wear and tear, (paid by boarders) 5.00 Use of Gymnasium, (optional) 3.00 Diploma of Proficient, at graduation 5.00 Diploma of Bachelor of Arts, at graduation 10.00 1 · I I No student will be matriculated until he shall present to the Faculty a receipt from the Treasurer for all dues; and no Diploma will be awarded unless the candidate shall present to the Faculty a similar receipt, including fee for Diploma. Willful damage will be made the ground of additional charge to be defrayed by the perpetrator. STATE SCHOLARSHIPS FOR TUITION. A system of one hundred and fifty State Scholarships has been founded by the Board of Visitors and Governors of St. John's College on the annual donation received by the College from ihe State. Each of these scholarships entitles the holder, in whose name it is ~-- STATE SCHOLARSHIPS FOR BOARD AND TUITION. The General Assembly of the State, (Acts of 1872, ch. 393,) has provided for furnishing board, fuel, lights and washing, to two of the six incumbents of State Scholarship's for tuition from each Senatorial Dij!trict in the State, to be appointed by the Board of School Commissioners, by and with the advice and consent of the Senators in their respective Districts, aftei· aompetitive examination. These Scholarships are tenable for four years, and the incumbents are required to give bond and security in the sum of $750 that they will teach school within the State for not less than two yea.rs after leaving College. To obtain a full Collegiate education, the object contemplated --~·1 �30 CIRCULAR OF ST. JOHN'S COLLEGE. / by the Act, candidates should be prepared to enter at·· least the Freshman Class of the College, although, if no candidates sufficiently well-prepared present. themselves, they will be received into the Preparatory Department of the College. They are · required to pursue the regular Academic Course in order to qualify themselves for teaching hereafter. The Boards of School Commissioners are earnestly requested to exercise great care in the selection of these students, and especially.to appoint none deficient in preparation. There will be but oue vacancy in these Scholorships at the close of the present session, viz: from Baltimore Otty, (First Legislative District). ·. In filling these vacancies; the Boards of School Commissioners are requested, other things being equal, to appoint those candidates who are at· least sixteen years of age and are most advanced in their studi!lS. It is especially desired that all applicants hereafter should be prepared, in at least Mathematics and English studies, to enter the. Freshman Class of the College. · .u@""The Secretaries.of the several School Boards are requested to communicate to the Principal of the College the names of those former incumbents of these Scholarships who are now, or may hereafter be, employed in teaching in their respective counties, or in the city of . Baltimore. COLLEGIATE . SCHOLARSHIPS. The following regulations have been made by the Board of Visitors and Governors for the establishment of Scholarships in connection with the College :. For a permanent Scholarship for tuition, $1000. For a permanent Scholarship for board and tuition, $3000. For a Scholarship for the tuition of a student .through all the College Classes, $250. For a Scholarship fer the board and tuition of a student through all. the College Classes, $800. For any other Scholarships the sum reduced shall be in the same proportion, the money in each case to be paid in advance into the treasury of the College. The establishment of these Scholarships is earnestly commended to the attention of the Alumni and friends of the College. / / TO THE PEOPLE OF MARYLAND. In sending out the Catalogue of the Eleventh Session since the reorganization of ST. JOHN'S CoLLEGE, the Faculty would earnestly commend to the people of Maryland tbe advantages presented by the flollege for the attainment of a thorough and liberal education. The location of the College makes it easy of access from all portions of the State, and its situation has been often commented on as peculiarly suitable for a Literary Institution. The Departments of Instruction are fully organized and in complete working order, and the Course of Study will challenge comparison with that of most first-class Colleges in the land. The effort is constantly made to raise the grade and improve the methods of instruction, and the amount of work done and results attained are not inferior to tho~e of Colleges elsewhere. The liberality of the Legislature of 1872 has enabled the College to add largely to its Library and Philosophical Apparatus, so that the facilities for scientific study have been greatly increased. Expecially noticeable are the extremely low terms charged (two hundred and seventy-five dollars) for tuition, room rent, board, fuel, lights, and washing-terms much less than those of Colleges in other States, and altogether insufficient to maintain the College but for the liberal assistance granted by the State. In return for this assistance, when it was first received with no conditions attached, the Board of Visitors and Governors established one hundred and fifty scholarships (six for each Senatorial District in the State,) entitling the holders, appointed by the Board of )School Commissioners of the District, to exemption from payment of , fees for tuition and room-rent-thus limiting the charge for beard, fuel, lights, and washing, for these students, to two hundred dollars. Means were also provided by the Legislature of 1872 for making :fifty of the scholarships (two from each Senatorial Di11trict) free of all charges for board, fuel, lights, and washing, under certain conditions specified in the preceding Circular. I~ I i ! I �32 CIRCULAR OF ST. JOHN'S COLLEGE. These are the great advantages which the College presents for the attainment of a Collegiate education by even the poorest who are properly qualified to avail themselves of them. Such are unable to go beyond the borders of the State, and can thus obtain a liberal education at their very doors. And will those who are able to send their sons to other well known Colleges of other States refuse their patronage to ST. JoHN's COLLEGE, and thus neglect the opportunity now and here afforded of building up a College, already the equal of many of these, and which, by proper support from the people of Maryland, may in time become the rival of any institution in the land? A sufficient amount is annually drained from the State by sending her sons abroad for an education .which may be obtained at home, to place this College above all want. Will the people neglect the literary advantages presented here, and go elsewhere for a similar education at greater cost? � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

No student will be permitted to discontinue any study, except at the close of a term, and then only at the written request of his parent or guardian. Students who do not study Greek will be required to study French or German, and those who do not study either Latin or Greek, will be required to study both French and Germa~. These languages will be commenced by such students in the First Preparatory Class. The studies of students of the Second Preparatory Class who do not study the Classics, will be so arranged that their time will be fully occupied. Students of the regular Academic Course are required to study either French or German during the Junior and Senior years. For classical students below the Junior Class, th~ French and German languages are elective studies.

The departments of Histqry and the English Language and Literature~ and of _Natural Science, having been recently reorganized, the followmg outlme of the courses in these departments is ap· pended: DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY, AND THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE AND LITERATURE. In this department instruction will be given~ .,' COURSE OF INSTRUCTION. The Course of Instr.uction embraces the following departments : I. II. ,, ., 'i :1., ANCIENT LANGUAGES-Including the Latin and Greek languages, Greek and Roman Antiquities and Mythology, and the History of Greek and Roman literature. Prof. DASHIELL and Ass't-Prof. HOPKINS. MODERN LANGUAGES-Including the French and. German languages and literature. Profs. LEROUX and HOPKINS. III. MATHEMATICS-Including Pure Mathematics, M~chanics and Astronomy. Prof. JOHNSON. IV. NATURAL SCIENCE-Including Natural Philosophy, Chemistry, Mineralogy and Geology, and the elements of Zoology and Botany. Prof. CLAUDE. 1st. IN HrsTORY.-A thorough knowledge of Greek and Roman h~s~ory is belie".ed to be the basis of all historical study, and these w1I. _first be. carefully lear~ed. This will be followed with a general outlme of history, after Gibbon, from the accession of Commodus to the fall of Constantinople. After this the history of the Middle Ages will occupy the attention of the student, which will be succeeded by as extended a notice of modern European and Americ an . h1story as the limited time will permit. 2d. IN THE ENGLISH AND ANGLO·SAXON LANGUAGES AN~ THEIR ~ITE~ATURE.-Under this head the art of Composition and Rheton_c_ will first be studied, with frequent exercises in written com_pos1t10n and declamation, and a thorough analysis of the gramm~t1cal structure of t1!e language. The history of English literature w_ill then ~e taken up, and the lives of authors studied in connection with specimens of their writings, which will. be criticized in class. After this the English of the Elizabethan age will be made a subject of study, and the most marked points of difference between Elizabethan and modern Engl~sh noted and commented on. Finally, the Anglo-Saxon language will be carefully studied,- and in connection ,,I �,......--- ' 22 OIRODLAR OF ST. JOHN'S OOLLEGE. CIRCULAR OF ST. JOHN'S COLLEGE. with it lectures delivered on the origin and history of the English language, and lectures introductory to the Comparative Grammar of the Teutonic languages, an outline being given of the classification of languages, particularly the branches and subdivisions of the IndoEuropean family, and of the general principles of Comparative Grammar, after manuscript notes on the lectures of Prof. George Curtius, of Leipzig. As extended a treatment of these subjects will be given as is possible in the time allowed. In the course above sketched the Professor will endeavor, first, to educate the mental faculties of pupils, training them to compare, to generalize, to ascend inductively from facts to principles, to descend deductively from principles to facts ; second, to impart such know ledge of its subjects as all liberally educated persons should possess ; third, to make it sufficiently thorough to indicate whether any pupil has such natural taste and aptitude for the study of any one of its branches, as should induce him to make its pursuit his special avocation. The studies of the several classes have been so arranged as to make instruction in the sciences a prominent part of the Collegiate course. Additions will from time to time be made to the philosophical apparatus, and every effort used to make the laboratory and cabinet as complete as possible. Contributions for illustration of any of the branches of this department will be thankfully received. DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL SCIENCE. In this department instruction will be given1st. IN ZOOLOGY-viewing the animal kingdom as a whole, observing the types of organs which, variously modified, pen·ade the genera, classes, families and branches, in which existing and extinct animals are arrayed, and taking a general survey of comparative anatomy ar;id physiology. 2d. IN BOTANY-comprehending the anatomy and physiology of plants, and their classification, according to the natural and artificial methods, &c. 3d. IN PHYSICS-examining the fundamental laws of force and its products, motion and equilibrium, and the application of these, first to the action and reaction of masses-solid, liquid, and gaseous-embracing mechanics, hydrostatics and pneumatics; second; of molecules, embracing light, heat, electricity and magnetism, in their relations to physics ; third, to the interaction of molar and molecular forces, embracing "the correlation and conservation of forces," the whole applied to the explanation of the phenomena of nature and combinations of art. 4th. IN CHEMISTRY-comprehending the laws of heat, electricity, and light, in their chemical relations; a description of the element_s and their important compounds, binary and complex, their properties, classification, laws of union and separation, and the theories (atomic and others) by which these are explained ; the chemical nomenclature, symbols and notation, and the principles on which they are founded_; the whole, as far as possible, illustrated by experiment, and accompanied with instruction in manipulation. 5th. MINERALOGY AND GEOLOGY-of which sciences a general survey will be taken after completion of the course in Physics and Chemistry. · POST-GRADUATE COURSE OF STUDIES. '- .. 1. l t The Post-Graduate Course of Studies, extending through two years, and pursued at the College or elsewhere, is assigned by the Faculty to candidates for the degree of Master of Arts. This course will relate mainly to open questions in all departments of physical, literary, philological, or speculative inquiry, and thesis in each will be prescribed to candidates according to the current aspects of science and investigation in the most interesting branches of human study and thought. In the assignment of such theses regard will also be had to the favorite studies of the individual candidate, that the spirit of original inquiry in each may be duly encouraged. Candidates for this degree are required, within three months after graduation, to select at least two of the departments of study specified in this Catalogue (pp. 20, 21,) and under the direction of the Professors in these departments to pursue their studies for the two years of the Post-Graduate Course, submitting to them such essays, or undergoing such oral or written examinations, as may be required to test their qualifications for this degree. �' I I Iii CIRCULAR OF ST. JOHN'S COLLEGE: CIRCULAR OF ST. JOHN'S COLLEGE. EXAMINATIONS, REPORTS, CONDUCT. DEGREES AND CERTIFICATES. Written exami,nations on the studies of the entire term are held at the close of each term. The marks for these examinations are combined with the marks for daily recitations, to make up the student's standing for the term. Any student whose examinations at the close of a year shall evince an incapacity on his part to pursue with advantage the studies of the class to which he belongs, will have offered to him on the first day of the next year an opportunity to retrieve his !ost position, and in default of doing so, will be reduced to a lower class. A student deficient in knowledge or persistently neglectful of any study, is at any time liable to be reduced to a lower class in that study. A merit-roll is kept, and each recitation noted on the grade of from o to 5. In order to pass from a low.er to a higher class, each stu<lent must obtain an average of at least 2.5 each on his recitations and on his examinations for the Academic year. Demerits will be given for absence and for violation of College regulations. Reports respecting conduct and scholarship, including all absences from College exercises, will be sent every two months to the parents or guardians of the students. Whenever any student of the Collegiate Department has 100 demerits for any one term, or 150 for the year, or any student of the Preparatory Department has 125 demerits for any one term, or 200 for the year, he must leave the Institution. Each student is required to obey all the laws of the College, so long as he shall remain a member of it; and whenever any student can no longer cheerfully comply with College rules, he will be required to leave the Institution. All students are required to be present promptly on the opening day of the session, and no student will be permitted to leave the Col~ege while College exercises are going on, except in cases of urgent necessity, and at the written request ef his parent or guardian. The attention of parents and ![uardians is specially called to these regulations, and their co-operation earnestly requested. They are also earnestly solicited, on the occasion of holidays, not to detain students at home beyond the time allotted for suspension of College exercises. Students absent from any cause except protracted sickness, will be marked zero on all recitations made during their absence. When the cause of absence is satzifactorJ' to the FacultJ', they will be allowed to make up the omitted recitatz"ons. L~~~---=-=~~~--. . .---~-------------. 25/ The following Academic Degrees are conferred by the College : · The Degree of Master of Arts, conferred after completion of the Post-Graduate. Course of Studies. The Degree .of Bachelor of Arts, conferred upon students of the Senior Class who shall obtain an average of 3.7 5 on all the studies of the Senior year. The Degree of Prl!ftcient, conferred upon Students of the Select Course, who shall complete the course and obtain an average of 4 in any special study during the last year of the course in that study, and upon students of the regular Academic Course in any elective study, in which they shall complete the course and obtain a like average. The Degree of Distinguished Prl!ftcient is similarly conferred upon any student who shall obtain an average of 4.5 in any special study. ·Certificates of Distinction of the First and of the Second Grade are presented on Commencement Day to those students in any Class who shall have obtained an average of 4.5 and of 4 respectively in all their studies and in Conduct for the Academic year. Students who have obtained an average o( 4.5 in any one branch of study are honorably mentioned on Commencement Day, but no student is honorably mentioned, nor is any Certificate or Degree conferred upon any student who has received an average of less than 2.5 in any one study for the Academic year.

TERMS AND VACANCIES. LIBRARY. ,, I I' ! The Library of the College consists of about 5,000 volumes, the use of which is permitted to the students under certain regulations. Through the liberality of the Legislature of 1872, and donations from the Classes of '71, '72 and '73, large additions have been made to the Library ; and, by means of the regular Library fees, subscriptions have been made to a large number of American and foreign periodicals. A complete library being an indispensable auxiliary to the intellectual advancement of Professors and students, the claims of the College Library are commended to the Alumni of the College, and to the friends of education in the State. Any contributions of books or funds for the Library will be gratefully acknowledged. l. The Annual Commencement of the College takes place on the first Wednesday in July. The College year begins on the third Monday in September and ends on the first Wednesday in July. The year is divided into two equal terms. The regular vacations extend from the first Wednesday in July to the third Monday in September, and from the 23d of December to ·the first Monday in January, both inclusive. The 22d of February, Good Friday and the 4th of July are holidays, as also the Day of Public Thanksgiving, appointed by the Governor of Maryland, or by the President of the United States. EXPENSES. LITERARY SOCIETIES. ), . i I There are two Literary Societies (the Philokalian and the Philomathean) among the students, which afford opportunities for the cultivation of composition and debate. An oration is usually delivered before these Societies on the day preceding Commencement Day, by some gentleman selected by them. 11,l II' I,: SOCIETY OF ALUMNI.

Students not holding Scholarships which entitle them to both board and tuition free, are required to provide themselves with furniture, including stoves. Furniture may, however, be hired from the Steward at a reasonable rate. Board at special rates, in clubs, may be had on terms arranged between parents and the manager of the boarding department. The boarding-house will be closed during the Christmas and Summer vacations. Books and stationery will be furnished at the lowest possible rates, and disbursements made for personal expenses of students, if funds shall be deposited by parents for this purpose, but no advances will be made by the College. The tuition fees of students who reside in Annapolis are as follows: In the Preparatory Department, for each term, payable in advance $30 oo In the Collegiate Department, for each term, payable in advance The extra charges, also payable in advance, by all Students, are as follows. : Seat in Church, per term, (paid by boarders) Library Fee Repairs and General Damages, (paid by boarders) Use of Gymnasium, (optional) Diploma of Proficient, at graduation Diploma of Bachelor of Arts, at graduation 1.50 5.00 5.00 3.00 5.00 10.00 No student will be matriculated until he shall present to the Faculty a receipt from the Treasurer for all dues ; and no Diploma will be awarded unless the candidate shall present to the Faculty a similar receipt, including fee for Diploma. Willful damage will be made the ground of additional charge to be defrayed by the perpetrator. STATE SCHOLARSHIP .l<"'OR TUITION. A system of one hundred and fifty State Scholarships has been founded by the Board of Visitors and Governors of St. John's College on the annual donation received by the College from the State. Each of these scholarships entitles the holde<, in whose name it is : .f ~ ... \ issued, to exemption from the payment of the room-rent and tmtion fees, if, on examination, he is found qualified to enter any class in the Preparatory Department or College. The Preparatory Department corresponds, in the scope and quality of its studies, to a High School. Each Senatorial District of the State is entitled to six of these scholarships, whicht are filled by the School Commissioners of each District ; and in case more than six shall be nominated from any District, the Faculty will select the six best qualified to enter the Institution. All Scholars thus selected are required to conform to the rules and regulations of the College. In addition to tuition and room-rent, the College authorities engage during the coming year to furnish board in the College Commons, (including fuel, lights and washing,) to all incumbents of State Scholarships at the rate of $zoo per annum, payable in advance, in semiannual instalments of $100 at the beginning of each term in the scholastic year. In order to secure greater efficiency to the College, and a higher appreciation of the State's liberality, it is recommended to the Boards of School Commissioners to make these Scholarships the rewards of competitive examinations, and to grant certificates to none who are not fully qualified to enter the Preparatory Department of the College. The College has suffered heretofore from lack of preparation on the part of these appointees. Books will be furnished hereafter to those students only who hold Senatorial Scholarships for both board and tHition, and if damaged or lost, will be charged to them at their full cost. STATE SCHOLARSHIPS FOR BOARD AND TUITION. The General Assembly of the State, (Acts of 1872, ch. 393,) has provided for furnishing board, fuel, lights and washing, to two of the six incu~bents of State Scholarships for tuition from each Senatorial District in the State, to be appointed by the Board of School Commissioners, by and with the advice and consent of the Senators in their respective Districts, after competitive examination. These Scholarships are tenable for four years, and the incumbents are required to give bond and security in the sum of $7 50 that they will teach school within the State for not less than two years after leaving College. To obtain a f~ll Collegiate education, the object contemplated �30 CIRCULAR OF ST. JOHN'S COLJ,EGE. by the Act, candidates should be prepared to enter at least the Freshman Class of the College, although, if no candidates sufficiently well-prepared present themselves,. they will be, received into the Preparatory Department of the College. They are required to pursue the regular Academic Course in order to qualify themselves for teaching hereafter. The Boards of School Commissioners are earnestly requested to exercise great care in the" selection of these students, and especially to appoint none deficient in preparation. As the terms of the incumbents of several of these Scholars.hips expire at the close of the present session, there will then be the following vacancies : three from Baltimore City, one from each Legislative District; two from each of the counties of Baltimore, Dorchester, Frederick, Howard, Somerset, and Worcester; and on: from each o.f the connties of Allegany, Calvert, Charles, Harford, Kent, Montgomery, St. Mary's, and Wicomico. In filling these vacancies, the Boards of School Commissioners are requested, other things being equal, to appoint those candidates who are at least sixteen years of age and are most advanced in their studies. It is especially desired that all applicants hereafter should be prepared, in at least Mathematics and English studies, to enter the Freshman Class of the College. The Secretaries of the several School Boards are requested to communicate to the Principal of the College the names of those incumbents of these Scholarships who are uow, or may hereafter be, empioyed in teaching in their respective counties, or in the city of Baltimore.

JOHN'S COLLEGE. These are the great advantages which the College presents for the attainment of a Collegiate education by even the poorest who are properly qualified to avail themselves of them. Such are unable to go beyond the borders of the State, and can thus obtain a liberal education at their very doors. And will those who are able to send their sons to the well-known Colleges of other States refuse their patronag·e to ST. JOHN'S COLLEGE, and thus neglect the opportunity now and here afforded of building up a College, already the equal of many of these, and which, by proper support from the people of Maryland, may in time become the rival of any institution in the land? A sufficient amount is annually drained from the State by sending her sons abroad for an education which may be obtained at home, to place this College above all want. Will the people neglect the literary advantages presented here, and go elsewhere for a similar education at greater cost? ~-~'-=--=-~=---- ------....-..~--ilillii=-iili--liililii------ � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

No student will be permitted to discontinue any study, except at the close of a term, and then only at the written request of his parent or guardian. Students who do not study Greek will be required to study French or German, and those who do not study either Latin or Greek, will be required to study both French and German. These languages will be commenced by such students in the First Preparatory Class. The studies of students of the Second Preparatory Class who do not study the Classics, will be so arranged that their time will be fu11y occupied. Students of the regular Academic Conrse are required to study either French or German during the Junior and Senior years. For classical students below the Junior Class, the lfrench and German languages, and the course in Book-Keepin~, are elective studies. Apparatus for Gymnastic exercises has been recently erected, and regular hours of exercise assigned for each class. The use of the Gymnasium is granted on payment of a small fee. B:aui:s:e :a£ lnsti:u:oti:an. The Coqrse of Instruction em braces the following departments: I. II. III. TV.

PRINCIPAL. The departments of History and the English Language and Literature, and of Natural Science, having been recently reorganized, the following outline of the courses in these departments is appended: DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY AND THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE, AND LITERATURE. In this department instruction will be given1st. IN HrnToRY.-A thorough knowledge of Greek and Roman history is believed to be the basis of all historical study, and these will first be carefully learned. This will be followed· with a general outline of history, after Gibbon, from the accession of Oommodus to the fall of Constantinople. After this the history of the Middle Ages will occupy the attention of the student, which will be succeeded by as extended a notice of modern European and American history as the limited time will permit. During the latter portion of the course, lectures on Modern History will be delivered. 2d. IN 'l'HE ENGLISH .AND ANGLO-SAXON LANGUAGES AND THEIR LrTERATURE.-Under this head the art of Composition and Rhetoric will first be studied, with frequent exercises in written composition and declamation, and a thorough analysis . of the grammatical strncture·of the language. The history of English literature will then be taken up, and the lives of authors studied in connection with specimens of their writings, which will be criticised in class. After this the English of the Elizabethan age will be made a subject of study, and the most marked points of difference between Elizabethan and modern English noted and commented on. Finally, the Anglo2 �18 Circular of St. John's College. Circular of St. John's College. Saxon language will be carefully studied, and in connection with it lectures delivered on the origin and histOTy of the English language, and lectures introductory to the Comparative Grammar of the Teutonic languages, an outline being given of the classification of languages, particularly the branches and sub-divisions of the Inda-European family, and of the general principles of Comparative Grammar, aft0r manuscript notes on the lectures of Prof. George Curtius, of Leipzig. 5th. MINERALOGY AND GEOLOGY-of which sciences a general survey will be taken after completion of the course in Physics and Chemistry. As extended a treatment of these subjects will be given as is possible in the time allowed. In the course above sketched the Professor will endeavor, first, to educate the mental faculties of pupils, training them to compare, to generalize, to ascend inductively from facts to principles, to descend deductively from principles to facts; second, to impart such knowledge of its subjects as all liberally educated persons should possess; third, to make it suffieiently thorough to indicate whether any pupil has such natural taste and aptitude for the study of any one of its branches, as should induce him to make its pursuit his special avocation., The studies of the several classes have been so arranged as to make instruction in the sciences a prominent part of the Collegiate course. Additions will from time to time be made to the philosophical apparatus, and every effort used to make the laboratory and cabinet as complete as possible. ContributiO'ns for illustration of any of the branches of this department will be thankfully received. DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL SCIENCE. In this de]:Jartment instruction will be givenlst. IN ZooLOGY-viewing the animal kingdom as a whole, observing the types of organ<; which, variously modified, pervade the genera, classes, families and branches, in which existing and extinct animals are arrayed, and taking a general survey of comparative anatomy and physiology. 2d. IN BOTANY-comprehending the anatomy and physiology of plants, and their classification, according to the natural and artificial methods, &c. 3d. IN PHYSICS-examining the fundamental laws of force and its products, motion and equilibrium, and the application of these, first, to the action and reaction of masses-solid, liquid, and gaseous-embracing mechanics, hydrostatics and pneumatfrs; second, of molecules, el)'.l bracing light, heat, electricity and magnetism, in their relations to physics; third, to the interaction of molar and molecular forces embracing "the correlation and conservation of forces," the whole applied to the explanation of the phenomena of nature and combinations of art. 4th. IN CHEMISTRY-comprehending the laws of heat, electricity, and light, in their chemical relations; a description of the elements and their important compounds, binary and complex, their properties, classification, laws of union and separa- · tion, and the theories (atomic and others) by which these arc explained; the chemical nomenclature, symbols and notation, and the principles on which they are founded, the whole, as far as possible, illustrated by experiment, and accompanied with instruction in manipulation. 19 POST-GRADUATE COURSE OF STUDIES. The Post-Graduate Course of Studies, extending through two years, and pursued at the College or elsewhere, is assigned by thfl Faculty to candidates for the degree of Master of Arts. This course will.relate mainly to open questions in all departments of physical, literary, philological, or speculative inquiry, and theses in each will be prescribed to candidates according to the current aspects of science and investigation in the most interesting branches of human study and thought. In the assignment of such theses regard will also be had to the favorite studies of the individual candidate, that the spirit of original inquiry in each may be duly encouraged. Candidates for this degree are required, within three months after graduation, to select at least two of the departments of ·study specified in this Catalogue (pp. 16, 17), and under the direction of the Professors in these departments to pursue their �I -2_o_ _ _c_ir_c_u_Za_r_o_if_S_t._J_o_h_n_s_~_o_z_ze_g_e_._ _ __ 1 Circular of St. John 1 s College. 21 I studies for the two years of the Post-Graduate Course, submitting to them such essays, or undmgoing such oral or written examinations, as may be required to test their q nalifications for this degree. EXAMINATIONS, REPORTS, CONDUCT. Written examinations on the studies of the entire term are . I held at the close of each term. The marks for these examina- I tions are combined with the marks for daily rncitations, to make up the student's standing for the term. Any student whose examinations at the close of a year shall evince an incapacity on his part to pursue with advantage the studies of the class to which he belongs, will have offered to him on the first day of the next year an opportunity to retrieve his lost position, and in default of doing so, will be reduced to a lower class. .A student deficient in knowledge or persistently neglectful of any study, is at any time liable to be reduced to a lower class in that study. .A merit-roll is kept, and each recitation noted on the grade of from 0 to 5. In order to pass from a lower to a higher class, each student must obtain an average of at least 2.5 each on his recitations and on his examinations for the .Academic year. Demerits will be given for absence and for violation of College regulations. Reports respecting conduct and scholarship, including all absences from College exercises, will be sent every two months to the parents or guardians of the students. Whenever any student of .the Collegiate Department has 100 demerits for any one term, or 150 for the year, or any student of the Preparatory Department has 125 demerits for any one term, or 200 for the year, he must leave the Institution. Each student is required to obey all the laws of the College, so long as he shall remain a n;i.ember of it, and whenever any student can no longer cheerfully comply with College rules, he will be required to leave the Ins.titution. All students are required to be present promptly on the opening day of the session, and no student will be permitted to leave the College while College exercises are going on, except in case of urgent necessity, and at tlie written request of his parent or guardian. The attention of parents and guardians • is specially called to these regulations, and their co-operation earnestly requested. . They are al8o earnestly solicited, on the occasion of liolirlays, not to detain students at home beyond the time allotted for suspension of College exercises. St1tdents absent for any cause except protracted sickness, will be marked zero on all recitations made during their absence. When the cause of absence is satiifactorp to the Faculty, they will be allowed to make up the omitted recitations. DEGREES AND CERTIFICATES. The following Academic Degrees ·are conferred by the College: The Degree of Ma8ter of Arts, conferred after completion of the Post-Graduate Course of Studies. The Degree of Bachelor of Arts, conferred upon students of the Senior Class who shall obtain an average of 3. 75 on all the studies of the Senior year. The Degree of Proficient, conferred upon Students of the Select Course, who shall complete the course and obtain an average of 4 in any special study during the last year of the course in that study, and upon students of the reO'ular .Academic Course in any elective stully, in which they 5shall complete the course and obtain a like average. The Degree of Distinguished Proficient is similarly conferred upon any student who shall obtain an average of 4.5 in any special study. Certificates of Distinction of the Ffrst and of the Second Grade are presented on Commencement Day to those students in nn.r Class who shall have obtained an average of 4.5 and of 4 respectively in all their studies and in Conduct for the .Academic year. Students who have obtained an average of 4.5 in any one branch of study are honorab,ly mentioned on Commencement Day, but no student is honorably mentioned) nor is any Certifil_~te or Degree conferred upon any student who has received --- ---------- l ---------1 �Circular of St. John's College.

Any contributions of books or funds for the Library will be gratefully acknowledged. 22 . PRIZES. I. Early English Tewt Society's Prize. The Early English Text Society of London, through F. J. Furnivall, Esq., Director, has added this College to its liet of Institutions authorized to award the Society's Prize for proficiency in English of or before the time of Chaucer. The prize eonsists of some of the rnprints of the Society's publications for the year 1864, or 1865. II. Society of Alumni Prizes. The Socitty of Alumni has offered for the present year the following Prizes, viz: . 1. Two Prizes of the value respectively of fifteen and ten dollars to the two members of the Writing classes who shall have made the greatest improvement in Writing during the year. 2. Two Prizes of the value respectively of twenty-five and fifteen dollars to the two members of the Junior class who shall obtain the highest f:;eneral average in all studies. 3. Two Prizes of the value respectively of thirty and twenty dollars to the two members of the Senior class who shall obtain the highest general average in all studies. The Prizes for the Junior and Senior classes are limited to students of the regular Academic ccurse and will not be awarded· to any Student who may have failed to receive an average of 2.5 in any one study. LIBRARY. The Library of the College consists of about 4,000 volumes, the use of which is permitted to the students under certain regulations. Through the liberality of the Legislature of 1872, and donations from the Classes of '71, '72 and '73, large additions have been made to the Library; and, by means of the regular Library fees, subscriptions have been made to a large number of American and foreign periodicals. A complete library being an indispensable auxiliary tQ the intellectual advancement of Professors and students, the claims of the College Library are commended to the Alumni of the College, and to the LITERARY SOCIETIES. There are two Literary Societies (the Philokalian and the Philomathean) among the students, which afford opportunities for the cultivation of composition and debate. An oration is usually delivered before these Societies on the day preceding Commencement Day, by some gentleman selected by them. SOCIETY OF ALUMNI. The Society of Alumni h<3lds its annual meetings on Commencement Day, on which occasion an oration is delivered by one of its mern hers. All former students who have completed their collegiate education at St. John's College, and left in good standing, are c·onsidered members of this Society. It numbers on its roll many names prominent in the history of the State. PUBLIC WORSHIP. I 1 . The exercises of each day are opened with prayer in the College Hall. All students are required to attend public worship on Sundays at such church as their parents or guardians may direct, and to abstain from whatever is inconsistent with a due observance of the Sabbath. The principles and duties of the Christian Religion will be constantly enforced in the teaching and in the discipline of the College, but no instruction whatever is given, or influence exerted, in the interest of any particular 1lenomination of Christians. TERMS AND VACATIONS. The Annual Commencement of the College takes place on the first Wednesday in July. The College year begins on the third Monday in September and ends on the first Wednesday in July. The year is divided into two equal terms. The regular vacations extend from the first Wednesday in July to the third Monday in September; and from the 23d of December to the first Monday in January. The 22d of Feb- �Circular of St. John's College.

Wilful damage will be made the ground of additional charge to be defrayed by the perpetrator. EXPENSES. The charge for the entire scholastic year, beginning on the thifd Monday in September, and ending on the first Wednesday in July, is STATE SCHOLARSHIPS FOR TUITION. $275.00 This amount covers all the ordinary College expenses except for text-books, and must be invariably paid semi-annually in advance, that is $137.50 at the opening of the first term in Septamber, and $137.50 at the opening of the second term, on the 15th of February following. No deduction will be made, except for protracted absence caused by sickness. Students not holding Scholarships which entitle them to both board and tuition free, are required to furnish their own rooms. Board at special rates, in clubs, may be had on terms arranged between parents and the manager of the boarding department. The boarding-house will be closed during the Christmas and Summer vacations. Books and stationery will be furnished at the lowest possible rates, and disbursements made for personal expenses of students, if funds shall be deposited by parents for this purpose, but no advances will be made by the College. The tuition fees of students who reside in Annapolis are as follows: In the Preparatory Department, for each term, payable in advance $30.00 In the Collegiate Department, for each term, payable in advance · 45.00 The extra charges are as follows: Seat in Church, per term 1.50 Library Fee 5.00 Use of Gymnasium 3.00 Diploma of Proficient, at graduation 5.00 Diploma of Bachelor of Arts, at graduation 10.00 A deposit of $5 is made at the opening of each year by stu- A system of one liundred and fifty State Scholarships has been founded by the Board of Visitors and Governors of St. John's College on the annual donation received by the College from the State. Each of these scholarships entitles the holder, in whose name it is issued, to exemption from the payment of the room rent ar:d tuition fees if, on examination, he is found qualified to enter any class in the Preparatory Department or Colles;e. The Preparatory Department corresponds, in the scope and quality of its studies, to a High School. Each Senatorial District of the State, is entitled to six of these scholarships, which are filled by the School Commissioners of each District; and in case more than six shall be nominated from any District, the Faculty will select the six best qualified to enter the Institution. All Scholars thus selected are required to conform to the rules and regulations of the College. In. addition to tuition and room rent, the College authorities engage during the coming year to furnish board in the College Commons, (including fuel, lights, washing, and text-books,) to all incumbents of State Scholarships at the rate of $200 per annum, payable in advance, in semi-annual instalments of $100 at the beginning of each term in the scholastic year. Books furnished to the holder of a State Scholarship, if damaged or lost, will be charged to him at their full cost. · In order to secure greater efficiency to the College and a 1. higher appreciation of the State's liberality, it is recommended to the Boards of School Commissioners to make these Scholarships the rewards of competitive examinations, and to grant certificates to none who are not fully qualified to enter the Preparatory Bepartment of the College. The College has suffered heretofore from lack of preparation on the part of these appointees. 1 �z6 Circular of St. John's College. STATE SCHOLARSHIPS FOR BOARD AND TUITION. The general Assembly of the State, (Acts of 1872, ch. 393) has provided for furnishing board, fuel, lights, and washing, to two of the six incumbents of State Scholarships for tuition from each Senatorial District in the State, to be appointed by the Board of School Commissioners, by and with the advice and consent of the Senators in their respective Districts, after competitive examination. These Scholarships are tenable for four years, and the incumbents are required to give bond and security in the sum of $750 that they will teach school within the State for not less than two years after leaving College. To obtain a full Collegiate education, the object contemplated by the Act, candidates should be prepared to enter at lm1st the Freshman Class of the College, although, if no candidates sufficiently well-prepared present themselves, they will be received into the Preparatory Department of the College. They are required to pursue the regular Academic Course in order to qualify themselves for teaching hereafter. The Boards of School Commissioners are earnestly requested to exercise great care in the selection of these students, and especially to appoint none deficient in preparation. These Scholarships are now all filled. At the close of the present session there will be one vacancy from each of th.e counties of Anne Arundel, Cecil, Prince George's, Garrett and Queen Anne's. COLLEGIATE SCHOLARSHIPS. The following regulations have been made by the Board of Visitors and Governors for the establishment of Scholarships in connection with the College : For a permanent Scholarship for· tuition, $1000. For a· permanent Scholarship for board and tuition, $3000. For a Scholarship for the tuition of a student through all the College Classes, $250. For a Scholarship for the board and tuition of a student through all the College Classes, $800. For any other Scholarships the sum reduced shall be in the same proportion, the money in each case to be paid in advance into the treasury of the College. The establishment of these Scholarships is earnestly commended to the attention of the Alumni and friends of the College. TO THE PEOPLE OF MARYLAND. In sending out the Catalogue of the Ninth Session since the reorganization of ST. JoHN'S COLLEGE, the Faculty would earnestly commend to the people of Maryland the advantages presented by the College for the attainment of a thorough and liberal education. The location of the College makes it easy of access from all portions of the State and its situation has been often commented on as peculiarly suitable for a Literary Institution. The Departments of Instruction are fully organized and in complete working order, and the Course of Study will challenge comparison with that of most first-class Colleges in the land. The effort is constantly made to raise the grade and improve the methods of instruction, and the amount of work done and results attained are not inferior to those of Colleges elsewhere. The liberality of the Legislature of 1872, has enabled the College to add largely to its Library and Philosophical Apparatus, so that the facilities for scientific study have been greatly increased. Especially noticeable artl the extremely low terms charged [two hundred and seventy-five dollars] for tuition, room rent, board, fuel, lights, and washing-terms· much less than those of Colleges in other States,' and altogether insufficient to maintain the College but for the liberal assistance granted by the State. In return for this assistance, when it was :first received with no conditions attached, the Board of Visitors and Governors established one hundred and :fifty scholarships, (six for each Senatorial District in the State,) entitling the holders, appointed by the Board of School Commissioners of the District, to exemption from payment of fees for tuition, room-rent and use of text-books-thus limiting the charge for board, fuel, lights, and washing, for these students to two hundred dollars. Means were also provided by the Legislature of 1872, for making :fifty of the scholarships (two from each Senatorial District) free of all charge for board, fuel, lights, and washing, under certain conditions specified in the 'preceding Circular. · These are the great advantages which the College presents for the attainment of a Collegiate education by even the poorest who are properly qualified to avail themselves of them. Such are unable to go beyond the borders of the State, and can thus obtain a liberal education at their very doors. And will those who are able to send their sons to the well-known Coileges of other States refuse their patronage to ST. JOHN'S COLLEGE, and thus neglect the opportunity now and here afforded of building up a College, already the equal of many of these, and which, by proper support from the people of Maryland, may in time become the rival of any Institution in the land? A sufficient amount is annually drained from the State by sending her sons abroad for an education which may be obtained at home, to place this College above all wa,nt. Will the people neglect the literary advantages presented here, and go elsewhere for a similar education at greater cost? �CALENDAR_ 1875.

This will be followed with a general outline of history, after Gibbon, from the accession of Commodus to the fall of Constantinople. After this the history of the Middle Ages will occupy the attention of the student, which will be succeeded by as extended a notice of modern European and American history as the limited time will permit. During the latter portion of the course an effort will be made to trace the causes which have combined to produce the present state of modern civilization; 2d. In the English and Anglo-Saxon Lctnguages and their Literature.-Under this head the art of Cqmposition and Rhetoric will first be studied, with frequent exercises in written · composition and declamation.

Finally, the- Anglo-Saxon language will be carefully studied, and in connection with it lectures delivered on the origin and history of the English language, and on the Comparative Grarn:mar of the Teutonic languages, free use being made of the valuable works of March, Marsh, Heyne and Helfenstein, and an outline given of the classification of languages, particularly the branches and subdivisions of the Indo-European family, and of the general principles of Comparative Grammar, after Schleicher and manuscript notes on the lectures of Prof. George Curtins, of Leipzig. and the principles, on which they are founded, the whole, as far as possible, illustrated by experiment, and accompanied with instruction in manipulation. 5th. In JJ£ineralogy and Geology-of which sciences a general survey will be taken after completion of the course in physics and chemistry. In the course above sketched the Professor will endeavor ' first, to educate the mental faculties of pupils, training them to compare, to generalize, to ascend inductively from facts to principles, to descend deductively from principles to facts; second, to impart such knowledge of its subjects as all liberally educated persons should possess; third, to make it sufficiently thorough to indicate whether any pupil has such natural taste and aptitude for the study of any one of its branches, as should induce him to make its pursuit his special avocation. During the present session a separate Professor has been appointed for this department, and the studies of the several classes have been so arranged as to make· instruction in the sciences a prominent part of the Collegiate course. Additions will from time to time be made to the philosophical apparatus, and every effort used to make the laboratory and cabinet as complete as possible.

Any student whose examinations at the close of a yeat shall evince an incapacity on his part to pursue with advantage the st11dies of the class to which he belongs, will have offered to him on the first day of the next year an opportunity to retrieve his lost position, and in default of doing so, will be reduced to a lower class. A merit-roll is kept and each recitation noted on the grade of from 0 to 5. Demerits will be given for absences and for violation of College regulations. Reports respecting conduct and scholarship, including all absences from College exercises, will be sent every two months to the parents or guardians of the students. Whenever any student of the Collegiate Department has 100 demerits for any one term, or 150 for the year, or any student of the Preparatory Department has 125 demerits for any one term, or 200 for the year, he must leave the Institution. On admission each student is required to sign a pledge on his honor to obey all the laws of the College, so long as he shall remain a member of it, and whenever any student can no longer cheei·fully comply with College rules, he is expected to comply with his pledge and leave the Institution. All students are required to be present promptly on the opening day of the session, and no student will be permitted to leave the College while College Exercises are going on, except in case of urgent necessity, ai1d at the written request of his parent or guardian. ,The attention of parents and guardians is specially called to these regulations, and their co-operat~on earnestly·requested.

A system of has been founded by the Board of V1S1tors and Governors of St. John's College on the annual donation received by the College from the State. Each of these Scholarships entitles the holder, in whose name it is issued, to exemption from the payment of room rent and tuition fees, if, on examination, he is found qualified to enter any class in the Preparatory Department or College. The Preparatory Department corresponds, in the_ scope and quality of its studies, to a High School. Each Senatorial District of the State ~s entitled to six of these Scholarships, which are filled by the School Commissioners of each District ; and in case more than six shall he nominated from any District, the Faculty will select the six best qualified to enter the Institution. All Scholars thus selected are required to conform to the· rules and regulations of the College. In addition to tuition and room rent, the College authorities engaO'e during the coming year to furnish board in the College· Com~ons, (including fuel, lights, washing and text-books,) to all incumbents of State Scholarships at the rate of $200 per :mnum, payable in admance, in semi-annual instalments of $100 at the beginning of each term in the scholastic year. Books furnished to the holder of a State Scholarship, if damaged or lost, will be charged to him at their full cost. -An inspection of such books is made every month. In order to secure greater efficiency to the College and a higher appreciation of the State's liberality, it is recommended to the Boards of School Commissioners to make these Scholarships the rewards of competitive examinations, and to grant certificates to none who are not fully qualified to enter the Preparatory Department of the College.

JoHN's COLLEGE was established by act of Legislature in November, 1784. The year following, the King William School, established at Annapolis about 1704, was incorporated with it, and ,on 1st ~arc?, 1786, Annapolis was selected as the site of the College. fhe Inst1tut1on was opened on November 11th, 1789, and we are told that "the dedication was performed with much solemnity, all the public bodies being in attendance and forming a long procession from the State ~ouse to the College Hall." 'fhe cha1'ter of St. John's provides that "the said College shall be founded and maintained fo1·ever, upon a most liberal plan, for the benefit of youth of every religious denomination," and authorizes certain specified agents, among whom are clergJ?l_en of the ~oman Cat;10l_ic, Episcopal a:nd ~resby­ terian Churches "to solicit and receive subscript10ns and contributions for the said intended College and Seminary of universal learning, of any person or persons, bodies politic antl corporate, who may be willing to promote so good a design." Private subscriptions to the amount of £10,000 were collected, and " to provide a peiwianent fund for the further encouragement and establishmei;i.t of the said College," the Legislature enacted that "the sum of £1750 current money ($4,666.66) be annually and forever hereafter given and granted, as a donation by the public to the use of the said College." Established on such a liberal basis the College, under Dr. John McDowell as Principal, discharged its duty faithfully and efficiently :until ~806, se~ding forth yearly as her alumni young men, afterwards promment ~n the history of Maryland and Virginia. In January of that year the Legislature, by a majority of only eight members, saw fit to withdraw the annuity, and the Visitors and Governors were compelled to announce the temporary suspension of the College. In 1807 Rev. Dr. Judd was chosen Principal, and in January, 1812, $1,000 of the annuity were restorec'., but this was unequal to the maintenance of a College. A lottery granted m 1821 added $20,000 to the funds and enabled the College to continue in operation. The Rev. Dr. Davis served as Principal from 1820 to 1824. and Rev. Dr. Rafferty from 1824 to 1831. In 1831 the late Rev. Dr. Hector Humphreys was appointed Principal, and by "his persevering efforts and perso~al influenc~ :vith the members of the Legislature," in rf\sponse to a memorrn~ of the yisitors and Governors, that body in 1833 added $2,000 to the anmuty, PT?.v:ided the ~oar~ of Visitors and Governors should agree to accept the same m full satisfaction of all legal or equitable claims they might have, or be supposed to have, aO'ainst the State." Glad to obtain even this small amount, and anxious to p~event a suspension of the College, the BoaTd consented, and "the deed of release was executed and entered upon the Tecords of the Court of Appeals." At the same time the Governor of the State, President of the Senate, Speaker of the House of Delegates, and Judges of the Court of Appeals were made e.v officio members of the. B9ard, thus indelibly i::ffixing to the .College the character of a State Institiitwn. In 1823 a committee of the Legislature was appointed to visit the College, in whose report we find the foll?wing statement: " The prosperity of St. John's College _is deemed a subject 9f .g~·eat importance, so that the youth from every portion of the two grea:t divis10ns of the State may convene with the well-grounded assurance of bemg ab;e ~o ,acquire a liberal education, and :i-t th~ sam~ time, consumm::te the patrio~c anticipations of the charter.-It is believed m no way can this parental aspiration be so well realized, as by sustaining on a liberal scale a SeminaTy of Learning at the seat of legislation." The comi;riittee furtl~er recommend raising money by subscription and remark: "It is an expechent res~rted to by many flourishing seminaries of learning in distant States, to which our own citizens have liberally contl'ibuted, whilst the unpretending chaTacter of this Institution has shrunk froni resortjng to so familiar and legitimate a mode of obtaining assistance. The authority and policy of such a measure are urged on the consideration of the Visitors and Governors, and earnestly commended to the public." Encouraged by these marks of legislative approval and support, the Visitors and Governors authorized and Tequested the Principal to collect subscriptions fol' the eTection of additional buildings, and for the Library and Philosophical apparatus, and appointed a committee to co-operate with him in carrying this resolution into effect. It was proposed to collect $30,000, about $11,000 of which were secured, and in June, 1835, the corner-stone of Humphreys Hall was laid, with imposing ceremonies, and an address from a distinguished alumnus 'of the Colleg~. From this time on we have lists of graduates for each year, except '43, '45, '48, '51, and '54, until 1855, when the College was reorganized, and in the same year Pinkney Hall was erected. Two years afterward, the veneTated and esteemed Principal, Rev. Dr. Humphreys, died, and the Rev. Dr. Nelson was chosen as his successor, under whose administration the College continued in successful operation until 1861, when its exercises were suspended. To understand the present position of the College, a brief statement of the efforts of the Visitol'S and Governors to recover the appropriation granted by the charter "annually and f01·ever," is necessary. In the yeal' 1859 the Board of Visitors and Governors, believing that the act of 1806, withdrawing the appropriation, was a violation of chartered rights, and therefore null and void, after obtaining the consent of the Legislature, submitted to the Court of Appeals the following points for decision: "(1) Whether the annual appropriation of the act of 1784 constituted a contract on the part of the State which could not be legally repealed by the act of 1806. (2) Wh13.ther this last act was not a violation of that section of the Constitution of the United States which declares that 'no State shall pass any law impairing the obligation of contracts;' and (3) Whether the act of 1784 constituted such a contract as would, if entered into between individual citizens, be binding upon them." All tltree of these points were itnanimously decided by the Court in favor of the College. The Visitors and Governors then, believing that their predecessors in 1833 had transcended their powers, and relying upon that provision of the charter which declares that "in case at any time hereafter through oveTsight or otherwise-any ordinance should be made by the Visitors and Governors contrary to the tenor of this charter-it should be null and void," brought suit to recoveT the withheld appropriation, but the Court held that the Visitors and QovernoTs could not avoid the release given in 1833, and the suit was decided against them. Without resorting to the Court of final appeal, the Supreme Court of the United States, the Visitors and Governors addressed a memoTial to the Legislature in 1866, in response to which that body restored the aITearages of the annuity of $3,000, suspended from '61 to '66, and appropiiatecl an additional sum of $12,000 per annum for five years, from 1st June, 1868. With this restored annuity, the buildings which had been occupied as a hospital during the late war, were put in thorough repair, and DT. Henry Barnard, of Connecticut, late Commissioner of Education, was elected l'rincipal, by whom the College was reopened in September, 1866. On his resignation the following summer, Dr. James C. Welling, now Professor of Belles Lettres in the College of New Jersey, was chosen Principal, and the College opened the following autumn with 115 students. Before the close of the next session the BoaTd of Visitors and Governors, in anticipation of the increa~ed annuity, passed an ordinance esta.blishing. one liitndred and .fifty State sclwllt1'Bltips, each scholarship entitling the holder to "exemption from the payment of room-rent and tuition fees in . any department of St. John's College." The Board also entrusted the privilege of making these appointments to the Boards of School Commissioners in the several Counties, and placed the charge for board, fuel, lights and washing at as low a rate as they could possibly be furnished. Soon after the close of this session, in August, 1868, an earnest "Appeal to the people of �24 CIRCULAR OF ST. JOHN'S COLLEGE. -----~--------·------- --- --------- -- Maryland" was issued liy the Board, reciting liriefiy the history of the College, the efforts made to olitain a restorntion uf the annuity and their result, the recent est:1blishment of this system of State scholtuships, and the extraordinary advantages thus presented to the youth uf Maryland for obtaining a liberal education, and appealing for support to the people at large. 'rhe following session opened with a much larger m1mber of sLudents, and the College has for the p:1st four years educated on an average more than 160 students each year, liut several vacaneies have still existed in the number of State scholarnhips, and the people of the State do not seem to have heartily embraced these advantages, greater, we firmly lielieve, than those afforded liy any literary Institution in the United Sti1tes. This appeal failed, however, to elicit contributions of money, books, or appa.rntus, which were requested, and a similar appeal issued by the Board in Novemlier, 1870, met with a similar response. 'rhe interest of the people uf the State does not seem to have been awakened in St. John's College, and they have not regarded it as their first literary Institution, and taken pride in supporting and developing it. It is lielievecl that St. Joh n's College has claims to lie su regarded, ancl deserves the patronage and liberal support of the people of Maryland. In the present sketch may lie seen some account of the tanly and yet insufficient justice, which it has met with at the hands of the Ll;gi;;lature, and notwithstanding this, in the Catalogue prefixed is exhibited the position to which it has attained by the rnlief afforded. A full Collegiate course, taught by competent instructors, has been organized, and a senior class is enrolled this session for the first time in ten years. It is nu reproach to the College that it has not clone more, but it is rather surprising that it has done so much, for after the close of the late war, it ·was necessary to build it up anew from the very beginning. 'rhe College still has, however, many wants to lie supplied, vd1ich cannot be met liy the State appropriation. It needs money iur mlditi01rnl Prolessors' houses, for the endowment uf <1clc1itional profossornhips, especially another scientific professorship, in order to develop and extend its scientific course, for the endowment of scholarships as prizes of a noble ambition, for improvement of its liuilclings <md groumls, and last, but by i10 means least, for its Library, C<-iliinet, and Philosophical Apparatus. 'l'he Uollegc was founded, in part, by subscriptions; this method of raising money was recommended liy the I,cgislature itself in 1833, and successfully adoptell, and it is now proposed to make no longer a paper appeal, as these have been tried and failed, but a personal a.ppeal through the Principal and Vice-l)rincipal to the friends of education in the State. It is hoped tlrnt the above sketch will suffice to interest ancl inform them tis to the grournls on ;\·hich the Uollegl~ asks for their support, and that it may nut ask iu vain. The substantial basis of a first-cllts.s literary Institution is here, and it needs liut money, ancl time for its development, to speedily attain this position. .i'\faryland has long neccled such an Institution, and has now the uppmtunity, at comparatively slight expense, of creating it. Let then each parent lint determine, if he can clo no more, at least to send his sons to St. J olm's College, where they can be educated at much less east than at any similar fostitution outsille of the Jinnts of the State; and let those who are able, contribute liliernlly to its support, and it will soon attain a position of w hieh the tltate at large nrny be lJroml, and remove the Jong-standing reproach, that the sous of Maryland must ue sent beyond her borders to obtain their education. /( I I 1.\ I I _ I- - - - - - - - ·--- ---~-- ~-- - - - -- • '.< � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

A system of one hundred and fifty State Scholarships has been founded by the Board of Visitors and Governors of St. John's College on the annual donation of $15,000 received by the College from the State. Each of these Scholarships entitles the holder, in whose name it is issued, to exemption from the payment of room rent and tuition fees, if, on examination, he is found qualified to enter any class in the Preparatory Department or College. The Preparatory Department corresponds, in the scope and quality of its studies, to a High School. Each Senatorial District of the State is entitled to six of these Scholarships, which are filled by .the School Commissioners of each District; and in case more than six shall be nominated from any District, the Faculty will select the six best qualified to enter the Institution. All Scholars thus selected are required to conform to the rules and regulations of the College. In addition to tuition and room rent, the College authorities engage during the coming year to furnish board in the College Commons, (including fuel, lights, washing and text-books,) to. all incumbents of State Scholarships at the rate of $175 per annum, payable in advance, in semi-annual instalments of $87.50 at the beginning of each term in the scholastic year. Books, furnished to the holder of a State Scholarship, if damaged or lost, will be charged to him at their full cost. An. inspection of 'such Books is made every month. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

M., Libmrian and Steward. Rev. HECTOR HUMPHREYS, EDWARD SPARKS, ST. JoHN's COLLEGE has a pleasant location on the Severn.; and by Rail Road and Steamboats, has daily communication with Washington and Baltimore, and with the Eastern Shore of Maryland. An experience of sixty years has shown the situation to be eminently healthful. Society here is highly respectable and refined, and maintains a wholesome and efficient public opinion, which necessarily restrains the conduct of young men who are amenable to it. There are four Churches for a population of about 4000; and few cities can' be found where the Lord's Day is more generally observed and revered; or where the Ordinances of the Gospel are more regularly and faithfully administered . .The General Government has placed its Naval .academy here, on account of the healthiness of the place, as well as for its convenience; and has on active duty a corps of more than a dozen Professors and .Teachers, besides .its Execu,tive Officers; who form an interesting portion of om· community. �St. John's has a competent Faculty of experienced Professors; whose lives have been devoted to teaching; who keep the· classes in their respective rooms, during the College hours., and each study is pursued, without intermission, to its completion, before a class is permitted to pass to another; the object being to give a thorough knowledge of all the branches of education, instead of a mere superficial acquaintance, which could be obtained by substituting different lessons for the several days of the week. Chcmisti·y, Geology, and .Mineralogy are .taught by complete Cabinets of Specimens, both American and European; by Text Books and Lectures; and by analysis. A Cabinet of Soils, already analysed, is arranged for examination; and the processes of the Laboratory are performed before the Students; and make a part of their course of study. Rocks from all parts of the world, belong tn the collection; and they are arranged in geological order, accompanied by characteristic fossils; so that every facility is afforded, not only for understanding the deposition of the strata, but their chemical composition, and the agents concerned in their formation. It is not needful to enumerate the articles ot apparatus for .Natural Philosophy, and .dstronomy. Every branch of the former is folly illustrated by experiments in Mechanics, Hydrostaticks, Pneumatics, Optics, Electricity, and Magnetism; and in the latter,. besides the theoretical science, the students are taught the practical art of making and reducing observations for Latitude, Longitude,. ~nd '.11ime. Theodolites, Sextants, Compasses and Levels, of the most approved construction, are used in practice with the Classes;. and the whole art of Surveying and Levelling is communicated by exercises in the field. The course in the Latin and Greek Languages is quite equal to that of any American College; and the French and Spanish are taught, without extra charge, in the most thorough manner, in daily recitations and during the entire period.
