UNIVERSITY COLLEGE, LONDON.
On Saturday the annual distribution of the prizes in
the faculty of arts took placq. in the theatre of Uni-
versity College, London, which was densely crowded by
a mosCfashionab'e auditory.
The Right Hon. Lord Robert Grosvenor, M.P., pre-
sided, ani amongst the gentleman present were observed
Lord Auckland, Vice-president of the College • Dr.
Bewring, Mr. W. D. Christie, M.P., Mr. iVer-
burton, M.P., Sir I. L. Goldsmid, H. Weymouth, Esq.,
H. Crabbe Robinson' Esq., Charles Cochrane, Esq., &c.
The Dean of the Faculty of Arts read the report for
the past session, from which it appeared that the num-
ber of students in the faculty of medicine, not including
those who attended the schoolmasters' course, had been
142, and the general conduct of the students had
been very satisfactory throughout the session. The
vacant chair of natural philosopny has been filled by the
re-appointment of Mr. Potter, and in consequence
of the large bequests which had lately been made to the
College it was confidently hoped the Council would have
the power of endowing the professorship permanently.
Mr. Graves had retired at the beginning of the session
from the professorship of Jurisprudence, and his place
had been supplied by Mr. Hargreave, who was formerly
a student in the College, but whose high attainments
fitted him in every respect for the office of a professor.
Amongst other advances which had been made by the
students of the College were, that some had already been
enrolled amongst members of the Council. One of them
was now received into the senate, and a new era had
been effected in the constitution of the College by the
admission during the past session of three of the former
students to be members of the College, with the title of
fellows. The gentlemen on whom this distinction had
been conferred were Dr. Taylor, Mr. Waley, and Mr.
John Richard Quoin.
The Noble Chairman then proceeded to distribute the
prizes in the following order :
