BIRMINGHAM TREATED ITS VISITORS.—AII
things seem to favour the Great Exhibition: it unquestion-
ably has luck on its side as well as good management, and
even the various entertainments which have been given in
connexion with it have been a series of successes unqualified
even by the weather. This was especially the case with
the Birmingham fire last week: it was an unmitigatel suc-
cess: rot a single thing occurred during the whole affair to
lessen the pleasure of those engaged in it, notwithstanding
that, so far as the London visitors were concerned, it began
about seven o'clock in the morning of the 19th and lasted
till one o'clock in the morning of the 20'h. It w,s no mean
achievement to take 300 persons 112 miles, show them all
that was to be seen in that wonderful hive of industry, where
the busy bees elaborate usefulness and beauty out of rough
metals instead of honey out of flowers; to give them break,
fast, dinner, and a soiree; a little music, and a good deal of
speaking, and then to bring them over another 112 miles to
their homes again without a disaster or cause for a grumble.
Right liberally and well did the people of Birmingham will
it, and ably were their views carried out by their worthy
mayor, Mr. Lucy. It Shakspere had been there, who said of
the mayor's progenitor, Sir Thomas—
" Though lucies a dozen he paints in his coat,
His name it shall Lowsie for Lucy be wrote,"

he would have withdrawn his denunciation for the sake of
the descendant.--. Builder.

UNIVERSITY COLLEGE, LONDON
The distribution of prizes to the students of the fa-
culty of Arts took place on Saturday at the College,
Gower-street; the Right Hon. Sir J. Graham, Bart.,
M.l'., in the chair.
The CHAIRMAN, in opening the proceedings, ex-
pressed the pleasure which be felt in attending on that
occasion, and of which he was sure the numerous audi-
ence before him would partake. He then suggested that
silence must be preserved if what took place was to be
heard, and called upon the Dean of Faculty to read his
report.
The report in question, which was generally of a con-
gratulatory and hopeful character, stated that the num-
ber of students in the faculty of Arts and Law during
the session had been 241; and that of these 184 attended
the ordinary classes, and 57 the courses of lectures ad-
dressed peculiarly to schoolmasters; the number attend-
ing these last showing an increase of eight.
To the progress made in the several departments, and
to the exemplary conduct of the gentlemen composing
their classes, the several professors testified, each giving
his own report, and announcing to the chairman the
names of the successful candidates to whom he was
then to award the prizes. In presenting the various
books and medals which he had to distribute to those
whose exertions had earned them, Sir James Graham
to..k occasion to point out to each youth the importance
of the studies in which he was engaged, their present
use in storing the memory and training the mind, and
their ultimate application to the exigencies and require-
ments of life. The immediate utility of a knowledge of
history, politics, and law he showed by ordinary and
known examples; to prove that botany was more than
an amusement, he cited the recent investigations into the
causes of the potato disease—a case in which statesmen
had looked to men of science for their guidance and
help; and to illustrate the advantages resulting from
an acquaintance with analytical chemistry, he remarked
how needful it was to persons requiring to form conclu-
sions on a question- with which he was thea occupied—
the water supply.

Having distributed all the prizes, and addressed suit•
able observations to the winners of each,
The CHAIRMAN said that, according to established
usage, and at the desire of the council, it was his duty
at the epse of that interesting day's proceedings to ad-
dress a few words to these around him. Placed there
in a seat of learning; in one of the colleges of the metro-
politan university, and representing the council which
governed that college, he felt and appreciated the diffi-
culties of his position, His general knowledge was not
enough to enable him to deal satisfactorily with the va-
rious subjects studied there; and besides, his various
avocations had by their number prevented his bestowing
that preparation on what he was about to say which the
impertauce of the occasion and the audience might have
demanded. Still, however, there was this advantage,
that what fell from him would be warm from the heart
the spontaneous effusion and faithful expression of his
feelings.—(Loud cries of " Hear, hear," and cheers.)
He was surrounded by the professors under whose tuition
the audience whom principally he addressed had studied.
It would not, therefore, be necessary for him, in the pre-
sence of these gentlemen, as well distinguished by ther
learning as rendered dear to the youth of tbat college
by the care bestowed upon their education, to go branch
by branch through the various subjects which had come
before them. It had been the good fortune of the pro-
fessors to: stimulate their pupils to exertions, to encou-
rage them when weary, to correct them when in error,
to point Out to them at all times that rugged path which
led to excellence, to learning, and to future fame, and
more than ail, to lead the way which they urged them to
allow.—(Cheers.) But for him there was left on this
occasion a task comparatively easy. He had only gene-
rally to enforce the principles which in addressing indi-
viduals he had endeavoured to make plain as foremost
in his thoughts; it was his wish simply to remind his
audience of the importance of that period of their lives
at which they had arrived; to suggest bright hopes for
the future on the one hand—to warn them, on the other,
of the bitter regret with which they would look back if
they lost the opportunities of improvement which they
might now enjoy—(Cries of "Hear, hear)—and which
in some instances, their parents had afforded them at
much personal sacrifice. Already he had pointed out
what appeared to him the great advantage of the exact
sciences, and had said that, useful as they were in the
ascertainment of the facts to which they related, they
were yet more useful as the " medicine of the mind," as
able to overcome that tendency to desultory reading
which so much weakened the mental powers. Of Bacon
and the profoundness of his knowledge the chairman in-
cidentally spoke; and, whilst lauding his system of rea-
soning, he took the opportunity to recommend the study
of his essays, which abounded in the strongest sense,
conveyed the purest language, and applicable to every

knew not whether within those walls New-
ton was studied; but even if not, the etetnews which
would leadao a comprehension of his immortal works
were there ;taught in perfection; and Newton, it always
appeared tel him, had approached the very confines of
divine intelligence in the power of human understand-
ing. With; regard to the human understanding itself,
its function was nut so much to bring mat-
ter as 0 bring mind into subjection. With
a repetitiOn of his warning. against the error of
desiring immediate " practical " results from studies,
the obj,cts of which were high and remote, the speaker
proceeded to dwell on the ennobling privilege granted to
those who lived in constant and familiar intercourse with
the great mbn of antiquity, who knew and sympathised
with those celebrated in all ages for their glorious deeds,
for their straggles for liberty, for their taste in arts, for
their matchless eloquence, or for their poetic powers;
and on these points to which he wished to draw atten-
tion he quoted Virgil:-
- Excudent alii spirantia mollies sera,
Credo equideni; vivos ducent de marmore vult;
Orabunt causes melius; calif que meatus
Describeut radio, et surgentia sidera dicent;
Tu regere imperio populos, Rotuane, memento;
The tibi erupt artes
; t pdeachenr

The first art alluded to in that passage was the great art
of statuary; and here also, in this country, excellence in
that branch cf art was of immense value. It stimulated
the warrior and the statesman to fame, by promising to
hand down their names to succeeding ages. Already,
those younger than he could only form conjectures of
what was the appearance of Pitt by the statue of Chan-
trey; their notion of Canning, from the work of West-
macott.—(Hear, hear.) He also, within this last fort-
night, had had to appeal to statuary to perpetuate the
recollection of one whose loss ho from his heart, while
life lingered, must deplore.—(Hear, hear.) It was
not inched that the name of Peel required bronze to
commemorate his greatness, for he " had scattered plenty
o'er a smiling land," and his history might be read in a
grateful nation's eyes; but still statuary was wanted, for
to that art he must appeal to give to the next generation
some idea of that fece which he had so much loved in
this.—(Loud cheers.) Then as to law. Were they not
proud of the names of Romilly, and Horner, and
Brougham? The studies they prosecuted there might
lead them to equal eloquence and equal fame. In
science there had of late years been advances made which
would render this age memorable in those to come. The
wind, the waves, the ocean itself had been subjected to
man; they had the wonders of the locomotive—the great
marvel of the electric telegraph. In every art and branch
of knowledge progress was visible; yet everywhere there
lay open to them a new field for improvement.—(Hear,
hear.) In this country everything was open to every
one of those whom he was addressing. Talent, com-
bined with industry, and approved by virtue, might here
rise to any eminence; so that from amongst those young
teen then surrounding him stone might command listen-
ing senates, and some sway the destinies of empires.
Aud coming to the last part of the passage which he had
quoted, he might say that they were the descendants of
brave men, and that, were their rights endangered, they
would dare to defend them.—(Hear.) Bat in the age in
which we lived, he was happy to say the arts of peace
predominated. In conclusion, he would say oue
word on a subject which, though delicate, he could not
pass by. He was ono of the original subscribers to this
College—(Cheers)—one of those who thought it desir-
able, considering the unhappy difficulties which exist
among us on religious topics, that secular education
Without distinction of religious creed should be freely
provided within those walls; and this opinion he still
entertained as strongly as ever. Ile believed, with
Junius, that really to improve the understanding was to
elaree the hear; but though such was his firm convic-
tion he could not atop there. It was not, indeed, the
duty of that College to impart religious instruction, but
