LECTURES.

Three Courses of Lectures on Common and Mercantile
Law, Conveyancing, and the Law of Real Property and
Equity, will be delivered in the Hall of the Society in the
mouths of February, March, April, May, and Juno
next.

LAW CLASSES.
In connexion with the lectures classes will be conducted
under the guidance and superintendence of the lecturers,
and will proceed concurrently- with the lectures. The
number of subscribers to each class will be limited, and
the instruction given will be confined to an examination
of the students upon the subject of a preceding lecture, or
on portions of a given book bearing on the same subject.
A sufficient number of classes will follow each lecture, and
be of such duration as shall provide for the efficient instruc-
tion and examination of the students. The teaching of the
lectures will thus be amplified, and impressed on the
memory by the classes ; and the system of constant ex-
amination will test, from time to ime, the progress made
by the students. ,
