PREFACE.
THE UNIVERSITY OP SYDNEY was incorporated by an Act of theColonial Legislature, which received the Royal Assent on the9th December, 1851. The objects set forth in the preamble are—" the advancement of religion and morality, and the promotion ofuseful knowledge." It is empowered to confer degrees in Arts,Law, and Medicine ; and is endowed with the annual income of£5000.
By a Royal Charter issued 7th February, 1858 (see p. 16), thesame rank, style, and precedence were granted to Graduates of theUniversity of Sydney as are enjoyed by Graduates of Universitieswithin the United Kingdom. The University of Sydney is alsodeclared in the amended Charter granted to the University ofLondon, to be one of the institutions in connection with thatUniversity, from which certificates of having pursued a due courseof instruction shall be received, with a view to admission to Degrees.
The Government of the University is vested in a Senate, consist-----ing of sixteen Fellows, who seledrfrom their own~body~a Provost
and Vice-Provost. Vacancies will be filled up by the Fellowsthemselves until there are one hundred Graduates entitled to vote,upon whom, thereafter, the right of election will devolve.
Under the peculiar circumstances of the Colony, it was judgedexpedient to establish at first the Faculty of Arts alone, beforeattempting those which are specially devoted to the professions ofMedicine and Law. The curriculum for the degree of B.A.includes the Classical Languages ; History, modern and ancient ;Logic and Moral Philosophy ; Mathematics and Natural Phi-losophy ; Chemistry and Experimental Physics. The teaching ofthe Faculty of Arts, in addition to these subjects, will embrace
C
14 PREFACE.
Mental and Political Philosophy ; Natural History, comprisingMineralogy and Greology ; Botany and Zoology ; the French andGerman Languages and Literature.
The Faculty of Medicine has since been established, and aBoard of Examiners has been appointed by the Senate to test thequalifications of Candidates for Medical Degrees.
The immediate direction of the studies in each Faculty isentrusted to a Board of the Professors in that Faculty ; andquestions relating to the general studies are decided (subject to theapproval of the Senate) by a Board consisting of the Provost,Vice-Provost, and all the Professors, the Dean of the Faculty ofArts being ex-officio Chairman.
The maintenance of discipline is provided for by the appoint-ment of a Board styled the Proctorial Board, and composed of theProvost, the Vice-Provost, the Senior Professor of Classics, theSenior Professor of Mathematics, and the Senior Professor ofChemistry and Experimental Physics. Subject to the generalcontrol of the Senate, this Board is empowered to make Rules forthe due observance of order, and to visit insubordination andirregularity with fines or other ordinary Academic punishments.
The Lectures of the Professors are open to persons not membersof the University upon payment of a moderate fee for each course.
The distinctive character of the Sydney University is theabsence of any religious test as a condition of Membership, ofhonor, or of office ; it is intended to supply the means of a liberaleducation to " all orders and denominations without any distinctionwhatever : " it possesses no Theological Faculty, but resembles, inrespect of its Secular Faculties, the Universities of the Continent,and Edinburgh, and of Oxford and Cambridge, as reformed by thelate Act of Parliament.
Although the comprehensive principles on which the Universityis founded do not admit of the establishment of a TheologicalFaculty, the importance of religion as an element of education is
PREFACE. 15
fully recognized. With a special view to this object, Governmenthas granted to the Senate a valuable building site of about 130acres, upon which, in addition to the University buildings, it is pro-posed to erect Colleges, wherein the academical secular teachingmay be supplemented at will by the dogmatical instruction anddiscipline of the several Churches into which the community isdivided.
An Act to encourage the erection of such Colleges was passedby the Legislature during the Session of 1854. Ample assistance isoffered towards their endowment; and with an enlightened libera-lity the maintenance of the fundamental principle of the University—the association of Students, without résped of religious creeds, in thecultivation of secular hnmdedge—is secured consistently with themost perfect independence of the College authorities within theirown walls. A College in connection with the Church of Englandhas already been established.
A College in connection with the Church, of Home has beenincorporated.
An account of the several Scholarships and other Prizes forproficiency which have been established out of the Funds of theUniversity, or have been founded by Private Benefactions, willj)e_found in this Calendar.
KOYAL CHAUTEROF THE
UNIVERSITY OF SYDNEY.
iUrfcria, by the Grace of God of the United Kingdom ofGreat Britain and Ireland Queen, Defender of the Faith, Toall to whom these presents shall come greeting : WHEREASunder and by virtue of the provisions of an Act of theGovernor and Legislative Council of our Colony of NewSouth Wales, passed in the fourteenth year of our reign,No. 31, intituled " An Act to incorporate and Endow theUniversity of Sydney, and to which our Royal assent wasgranted on the ninth day of December, One Thousand EightHundred and Fifty One, a Senate consisting of Sixteen Fel-lows was incorporated and made a body politic with perpetualsuccession, under the name of the University of Sydney, withpower to grant after examination the several degrees ofBachelor of Arts, Master of Arts, Bachelor of Laws, Doctorof Laws, Bachelor of Medicine, and Doctor of Medicine, andto Examine for Medical Degrees in the four branches ofMedicine, Surgery, Midwifery, and Pharmacy. ANDWHEREAS our trusty and well beloved Sir William ThomasDenison, Knight, Commander of our most honorable Orderof the Bath, Lieutenant-Colonel in the Royal Engineers, ourCaptain-General and Governor-in-Chief in and over our saidColony, has transmitted to us the humble petition of theSenate of the said University of Sydney under their commonseal, dated the ninth day of February One Thousand EightHundred and Fifty Seven, wherein is set forth a statement ofthe establishment of the said University, the appointment oflearned Professors of the Faculty of Arts, and die Provisions

And thatit is desirable to have the Degrees of the University ofSydney generally recognized throughout our Dominions.And it is also humbly submitted that although our Royalassent to the Act of the Legislature of New South Waleshereinbefore recited fully satisfies the principle of our lawthat the power of granting Degrees should flow from theCrown, yet that as that assent was conveyed through an Actwhich has effect only in the territory of New South Wales,the memorialists believe that the Degrees granted by the saidUniversity, under the authority of the said Act are not legallyentitled to recognition beyond the limits of New South Wales.And that the memorialists are in consequence most desirousto obtain a Grant from us of Letters Patent requiring all oursubjects to recognize the Degrees given under the Act of thelocal Legislature in the same manner as if the said Universityof Sydney bad been an University established within theUnited Kingdom under a Royal Charter or
an Imperialenactment : And the memorialists therefore hereby mosthumbly pray that we will be pleased to take the premises intoour gracious consideration and grant to the University of

Translate into Latin Prose.—
I asked him if he really thought a knowledge of the Greekand Latin languages an essential requisite to a good education.Most certainly, sir, said he, for those who know them have a verygreat advantage over those who do not. Nay, sir, it is wonderfulwhat a difference learning makes upon people, even in thecommon intercourse of life, which does not appear to be muchconnected with it. And yet, said I, people go through the worldvery well, and carry on the business of life to good advantage,without learning. Why, sir, he replied, that may be true in caseswhere learning cannot possibly be of any use ; for instance, thisboy rows us as well without learning as if he could sing the songof Orpheus to the Argonauts, who were the first sailors. Hethen called to the boy, What would you give, my lad, to knowabout the Argonauts ? Sir, said the boy, I would give what Ihave. Johnson was much pleased with his answer, and we gavehim a double fare. Then, turning to me ; Sir, said he, a desireof knowledge is the natural feeling of mankind, and every humanbeing, whose mind is not debauched, will be willing to give allthat he has to get knowledge.

disputed ; but it may not, perhaps, be as generally acknowledged,that the case is the same with unlimited scepticism ; on the con-trary, we are sometimes apt to ascribe this disposition to a more thanordinary vigour of intellect. Such a prejudice was by no meansunnatural, at that period in the history of modern Europe, whenreason first began to throw off the yoke of authority, and whenit unquestionably required a superiority of understanding, as wellas of intrepidity, for an individual to resist the contagion of pre-vailing superstition. But, in the present age, in which the tendencyof fashionable opinions is directly opposite to those of the vulgar, thephilosophical creed, or the philosophical scepticism, of by far thegreater number of those who value themselves on an emancipationfrom popular errors, arises from the very same weakness with thecredulity of the multitude ; nor is it going too far to say, withRousseau, that ' he who, in the end of the eighteenth century,has brought himself to abandon all his early principles withoutdiscrimination, would probably have been a bigot in the days of theLeague.' In the midst of these contrary impulses of fashionableand vulgar prejudices, he alone evinces the superiority and thestrength of his mind, who is able to disentangle truth from error ;and to oppose the clear conclusions of his own unbiassed facul-ties to the united clamours of superstition and of false philosophy.Such are the men whom nature marks out to be the lights of theworld ; to fix the wavering opinions of the multitude, and toimpress their own characters on that of their age.

Translate into Latin Prose.—Every pleasure, whether of mind or body, has its period and
limits, beyond which it cannot advance. Hunting, wrestling,and many other amusements, highly pleasing to those of moreyouthful age, hecome painful to those advanced in years ; while,on the other hand, the great pleasure derived from the pursuit oflearning is firm, and lasts for ever. So far, indeed, is the delightderived from the acquirement of knowledge from being lessenedas age increases, or from bringing with it satiety and irksomeness,that we find rather that it increases daily, and incites in the minda greater desire for its own possession. We read that Gorgias ofLeontini, the tutor of Isocrates, never refrained from the pursuitof knowledge till his 107th year. Isocrates, the father of elo-quence, as Cicero styles him, wrote his Panegyric at the age ofninety-six, and taught rhetoric till the ninety-ninth and last yearof his life. Carneades, at the age of ninety, ended his investiga-tions and life together. Remember, too, the divine Plato, wh°died while busy at his writings in his eightieth year, of whom wecan say justly, as Valerius Maximus did of M. Varro, that hisbreath and the course of his illustrious works were stayed on thesame pallet. Nor was the pleasure less that was derived fromlearning by St. Gregory Nazianzen, St. Basil, St. Jerome, St.Ambrose, St. Augustine, and others, both Greeks and Latins,who preferred to grow old in literature, and to arrive at the sameend of life and knowledge. I shall pass over, to avoid prolixity,many men of more recent date, of the greatest renown for wisdomand erudition, who have of late flourished in Italy, Germany,

Copies of their Proceedings are presented. The Trustees of theBritish Museum have presented a most valuable series of volumes,150 in number, illustrative of the antiquities and objects ofNatural History, contained in the great National Collections ofwhich they are the guardians. Prom private individuals theSenate received many valuable donations of Books and Casts·Among the latter may be particularized several casts from theElgin Marbles, presented by Mr. William Long, of Trinity Col-lege, Cambridge. It is hoped that the number of such casts asthese, which furnish useful materials for the illustration of Lec-tures on Ancient History, may at no distant day be enlarged.

In allusions in former Reports to the expectedarrival of the stained glass windows which now embellish theHall, the deep sense entertained by the Senate of the munificentliberality of those Colonists by whom the windows were given,has been already expressed ; the Senate, however, consider thatin this Report, which records the completion and opening of theHall,—to the beauty of which, the windows so largely contribute—the names of those to whom the University is indebted for them,ought not to be omitted. The following table is accordinglyinserted,—shewing the subjects and the donors of the severalwindows :—

REPOBT.
Schools of England and the Universities of Oxford and Cam-bridge, owe their present importance to the fact that theyconsisted originally of Real Estate, the value of which hasprogressively increased. Being desirous of applying to thisColony the results of an experience found to be so beneficial inthe Mother Country, the Senate determined that the severalendowments, made by private individuals to the University, shouldbe converted into Real Estate, in such a manner that each bene-faction should be represented by a distinct property, the resultsand profits of which should be applied to the special objects ofthe foundation. In accordatice with this resolution, the sum of£1000, representing the Deas Thomson Scholarship, has, withthe consent of the Donor, been applied to the purchase of aproperty in the neighbourhood of the University.
266. Fellowships vacated by Mr. Justice Therry and the Rev.W. B. Boyce, have been respectively filled up by the election ofPeter Eaucett, Esq., B.A., Barrister-at-Law, and the HonorableGeorge Allen.
