TRINITY COLLEGE, DUBLIN

The following address a
o presented to the Rev.
Joseph A. Galbraith, and the Rev. Samuel Naughton.
Fellows of Trinity College, by the gentlemen whom
they accompanied to London, in August last, on the
occasion of the Competitive Examination f,r appoint-
ments to the Royal Artillery and Engineers :
G EN TLEMEN, —We the undersigned students of Trinity
College, who were candidates at the competitive Exami-
nation for appointments in the Artillery and Engineers,
in August of the present year, are desirous of expressing
to you our lively sense of gratitude for your efficient and
disinterested exertions in preparing us for that examina-
tion. If the students of the University of Dublin were
more successful on that occasion than the pupils of any
other educational institution in the United Kingdom, we
feel that result was, in a great measure, due to you. You
promptly organised, and by your personal efforts carried
out, an appropriate plan of instruction ; and, accom-
panying ns to the scene of our competition, you at once
sustained our hopes, and aided us with your counsel.
Nor must it be forgotten that the successful issue of your
labours has led to the establishment of a permanent
system of instruction in the University, directed to the
same objects, and destined, we trust, often to produce
similar fruits. We request each of you, gentlemen, to
accept from us one of the inkstands we beg to offer, as
small tokens of the esteem and gratitude we can never
cease to feel. (Signed)

The address having been read by Joseph Kincaid Esq.,
and the inkstands presented, the following reply was
read by the Rev. Professor Galbraith :

GENTLEMEN, —On the part of Mr. Houghton and my-
self, I beg to return to you our sincere thanks for the
very handsome manner in which you have recognised
our services on the occasion of the examination for ap-
pointments to the Royal Engineers and Artillery, held
last August in King's College. On a short notice, and
with very inadequate means at our disposal, we under-
took the preparation of such students of Trinity College
as intended to present themselves at this competitive
examination. We were well aware of the admirable
course of instruction afforded by our University to all
her students, but a long experience had taught us that
for an examination such as this, discipline and prepar-
ation of a special character were absolutely essential to
success. The result has shown how accurately we es-
timated our position. The short time at our disposal,
and the necessarily limited number of subjects with
which we were ourselves acquainted, prevented us from
instructing you in all the branches of knowledge requir-
ed at that examination; and it is evident that had not
our exertions been founded on the ground-work of a
first-rate academic educatidn, they would not have met
with the success which they were fortunate to obtain.
Another element of our success we cannot, gentlemen,
on the present occasion refrain from noticing; we never
met with more wining pupils; our efforts were nobly
sustained by your strenuous exertions ; and we have to
thank you heartily for the zeal and alacrity with which
on all occasions you carried out every plan and followed
every rule which we pointed out for your direction. The
qualities which enabled you on this occasion to submit
yourselves to the rules of a well-regulated discipline,
warrant us in believing that you are fitted to attain the
highest dist nction in the service into which so many of
you have been honourably admitted. In the conclusion
of your address you advert to the permanent establish-
ment of a department in our University, having for its
object the special instruction of such of our students as
may desire to present themselves at future examinations.
If any exertion on our part had contributed in the
slightest degree towards such a result we should have
felt most justly proud ; but none can be more sensible
than we are, of the readiness of the authorities of the
University to establish and maintain every well-devised
plan calculated
of our
toadvsatundee..;ntthse
Tie openinginterests,l andp
of promote the
education,
rewards to fair and manly competition is an excellent
reform, characteristic of our age, and well calculated to
produce corresponding improvements in every educa-
tional institution in the kingdom. In her readiness to
co-operate in this or other wise reforms, rendered
necessary by the progress of the country, we believe the
University of Dublin will never be found backward.
Again, gentlemen, thanking you for the kind expression
of your feelings towards us, we beg to assure you of our
heartfelt desire for your future progress and welfare.
