PRICE 4D. STAMPED, 5D

(Hear.) There was another subject which they had
taken into their consideration, but to which he had
perhaps hardly a right to refer upon that occasion,
as they had as yet come to no definite resolution
with respect to it. It had been said that the Eng-
lish were a practical and not a scientific people;
and with our usual readiness to believe in accusa-
tions against ourselves, we had accepted the charge.
But its truth must appear very doubtful to any one
who remembered that it was to an Englishman the
general spread of inductive science over modern Eu-
rope was to be attributed ; that it was an Englishman
born who deprived the thunderbolt of its terrors ;
that it was an Englishman who disarmed that once
most fatal distemper, smallpox, of its virulence; that
it was an Englishman who perfected and brought
into practical operation that invention which en-
abled men to flash information from town to town,
and from country to country, with the rapidity of
lightning. (Hear, hear.) At the same time, how-
ever, he believed.that, proud as we justly felt of a
few eminent scientific names, science did not obtain
among us that high place to which it was entitled
in the public estimation. Last year two memorials
had been presented from some of the most distin-
guished men of science in this country to the senate
of that University, urging upon them the expe-
diency of giving to• scientific accomplishments a
more definite recognition by granting to duly qua-
lified candidates special scientific honours. The
result of that application was that .the senate had
appointed a committee to inquire into that subject ;
and that committee, after having beard the neces-
sary evidence, had drawn up a report, in which
they recommended that
.the university should grant
two scientific degrees—one a bachelor's degree, to
those persons who should show that they had
acquired a general knowledge of science, and the
other a doctor's degree, to those who should be
found to possess an intimate and special acquaint-
ance with some one scientific subject, such as would
justify the expectation that they might one day,
by their talents and their industry, enlarge the
boundaries of human knowledge. (Hear, hear.)
That scheme had not yet been fully considered by
the senate; but he had no doubt that they would
before long establish a system of scientific degrees,
and thus set an example in the way of the encou-
ragement of science which other universities would
be prepared to follow. An impetus would then be
given to scientific education in this country which
must be hailed with satisfaction by a people who
were indebted to science more than any other race
in the world for their national prosperity and
power. (Hear, hear..) He had entered into details
of the past history of the university, and he would
next proceed briefly to refer to two points connected
with their future condition. A university required
both a local habitation and a name. Now he be•
lieved that their present name was the best and the
most appropriate which they could possibly find.
But with regard to their local habitation he thought
that that university since its very origin had been
the worst lodged establishment of the kind that
had ever existed in any quarter of the world.
(Hear, hear, and a laugh.) The Royal Academy
had been promised a site for a building on the
ground on which they were then assembled. He
had the other day heard an octogenarian ex-Chan-
cellor, whose eloquence age was unable to wither
—he had heard Lord Lyndhurst bring forward
with peculiar propriety, inasmuch as he himself
was the son of a Royal Academician, the claim of
the Royal Academy in that matter ; and a few days
afterwards a similar service had been performed by
another ex-Chancellor for the Society of Painters
in Water Colours. Lord Derby had acknowledged
the claim of the latter body ; but he had at the
same time pressed upon the attention of his audi-
ence the numerous claims put forward for some
portion of that limited space, and when he (Earl
Granville) had cheered that observation, the noble
lord, with the readiness of a practised debater, had
turned round upon him and stated that he had
made a most unreasonableclaim for accommodation
on behalf of the society of which he was the special
representative. But he felt persuaded that the
demand he had put forward was a perfectly fair
one, and he had no doubt but that was the view
which was taken of the matter by Lord Derby's
son, Lord Stanley, who was one of the most useful
members of their senate. Another point to which
he wished for a moment to direct the attention of
the meeting was the propriety of their endeavour-
ing to obtain for their university a distinct repre-
sentation in the House of Commons. He believed
that no one would be prepared to deny that they
were fairly entitled to ask for such a privilege. It
was true that no proposal to that effect had been
introduced into the Reform Bill which had recently,
been brought forward by her Majesty's Govern-
ment ; but with the greatest respect to them, he
hoped he might be allowed to anticipate that in
their next reform measure they would supply that
omission—(a laugh)—while, on the other hand, he
believed that any other Government that might
be formed would be prepared to give such a request
the same favourable reception which it had re-
ceived when made by himself, from his colleagues
in the Administration of Lord Aberdeen. Before
he concluded, he wished to address one word of
congratulation to the young men who were that
day to receive degrees ; he was the more anxious
to do so, because he should be unable, in copse-
auence of his being immediately obliged to attend
elsewhere, to place in their hands the rewards of
their labours. He felt assured that they need not
be reminded by him that they ought not to bury
the talents which Providence had bestowed upon
them, for they must be as well aware as he was
that they could discharge no more pressing duty,
and that they could at the same time ensure for
themselves no nobler gratification than by develop-
ing the intellects they had received from heaven.
Perhaps he ought at the same time to endeavour to
offer a few words of encouragement to the young
men who had not been successful upon that occa-
sion. Those among them who had failed from
neglect and inattention had yet ample time before
them to redeem the error ; and those on the other
hand who, although they had not been successful,
had exerted to the utmost of their power every
faculty which they possessed might feelthaastsutheyred
that their labour would not. be lost, and
had by their habits of application and self-control
laid the best foundation for becoming valuable citi-
zens and useful members of families.
The noble earl then left the hall, and the Vice-
Chancellor, Sir J. G. Lefevre, took his place, and
proceeded with the presentation of the degrees,
honours, and' prizes.
Each candidate, after presentation, immediately
proceeded to the table on the left of the Vice-
Chancellor,: and there inscribed his name in the
register.
