A SECOND UNIVERSITY IN THE
METROPOLIS.
•
TO BE CALLED " KING'S COLLEGE, LONDON."

Saturday a Meeting was held at the Freemasens'
Tavern, for the purpose of forming a Plan for the
Education of the Youth of the Metropolis, and which
when carried into execution, is to assume the above

:1

The following tire - parts of an official document
put forth by the promoters of the 'plan
" 1. A College for General Education to be
founded on an extensive scale in the' metropolis ; in

which, while the various 'branches of Litemture and
Science are made the-supject of instrtiction, it shall

be an essential part of the system pursued, to in-
bue the minds Of youth with a know!edge of the

Doctrines 'and Duties of Christianity, as inculcated
•
by the United Chnrch of England and Ireland, to
be under
.t.jie patronage,of his Majesty, and to be
entitled the King's College, London; to be erected

on a site as cOnvenint as possible for the attendance'
of Day 'Students from all parts of the Metropolis.
" 2. In this College, a liberal and eolarged course of
Education to be pursued, in the, mode best adapted.
to. the respective ages of the Students. Those of less
-advanced age to be instructed in Schools, and those
of mature age in Lecture Rooms, under Professors.
The system to comprise religion and morals, Classi-
cal learning, mathematics, history, and modern lan-
guages; • and for the elder Students, the higher
branches of mathernatics,hatural philosophy, medicine,
chemistry, jurisprudence, &c.; thus providing for
the. two great objects of communicating . general
knowledge, and of affording specific preparation for
particular professions.
4. The College to be placed strider the super.-
iniendance of a principal, with a competent number
of professors and tutors.
" Visitor, his Grace the Archbishop of Canter-

bury. The follovrirtg persons to be Governor 3 in
virtue of their offices:—The Archbishop of York,
the Bishop of London, the Dean of Westminster,
the Dean of St. Paul's, the Lord Chancellor, the.
Lord Chief Justice of the Xing's Bench, the gecre-

tary of State for the Home Department, the Lord
Mayor, the Speaker of the House of Commons;
by whom all appointments are to be approved, and
all regulations respecting the discipline and course of
education sanctioned. • The Governors to be assisted
in conducting the general affairs of the Institution
by a Committee of Management, or Council.
" 5. The buildings of the College to be erected
in a style worthy of the Metropolis, and on a scale
which will admit of being extended in the most
ample manner to meet the demands of the public.
It is calculated that by the expenditure of from
100,0001. to 150,0001. effect may,' in the first

instance, be given to its operations.
" 6. The funds to be raised by subscriptions and
donations; the whole to be divided into shares of
1001. each„tititled to an annual dividend net ex-
ceeding 4/. per share. Subscribers' shares to be
payable by instalments, and transferrable. Dona-
tions to be invested in shares for the benefit of the'

Institavon, and transferred to Trustees, who are to
apply the dividend► thereon to a fund for endow-
ments, exhibitions, annual prizes, &c. All surplus
profits to go in aid of the fund
.for endownaents; &c.
The advantages to donors and subscribers in priority
of recommendation of students, and in personal ad-
mission to lectures, library, &c., to be determined

hereafter.
" May 315t,,1828.
It is requested that all persons disposed to pro-
mote the undertaking will signify their intentions as
early as possible to the Rev. Dr. D'Oyly, Lambeth
Rectory."
At a quarter after twelve the Duke of Wellington
entered the room, and took the Chair. We noticed
on the platform, in company with his Grace, the
Archbishop of Canterbury, the Archbishop of York;
the Bishops of London, Carlisle,: Peterborough,
Chester, LlanOaff, Winchester, Sodor and Man,
Lincoln, Durliam,-Bristol, Ely, &c. &c. ; the. Duke
of Rutland, the'Marquis of Camden, the Marquis.
of Bristol, the Earl of Harrowby, the Marquis of
Bute, Lord Sidmouth, Lord Bexley, Earl Howe,
Lord . Ashley, 'the Speaker of the House of
Commons, Sir C. Flower, Mr. Alderman Thomp-
son, &c.. &c. The Noble Duke, on entering the
room, was loudly .cheered by the company, which
was numerous, and appeared highly respectable.

The Duke of WELLINGTON then . addressed the
Meeting in nearly the following words :—Gentle-
men, the object of this Meeting, over which I have
been_called to preside, is to establish in the Metro-
polis a College for the Education of . Youth in ali
the branches of literature and science, including the
doctrines and discipline of Christianity, as inculcat-
ed by the United Church of England and Ireland.
(Cheers.)—Gentlemen, it is. not necessary that I
should detain, you by explaining, in detail the plan
according to which -it is intended to carry it into
execution, as that will be sufficiently explained in
the Resolutions that lam about to read to you. It
is, however, intended that this plan of education
should, give to the youth of the Metropolis a general
knowledge, and at the same time to combine with
that . a particular knowledge of Christian morality
and religion, together with a knowledge of those
branches of education which may be necessary for
the, particular professions they are destined to pur-
sue. ' (Applause.) Neither is it .necessary that I
should, at this time of day, enter into a discussion
to convince you of the propriety of establishing, such
an Institution in this , Metropolis. (Hear,. hear.)
Though I have not myself had the advantage
of a University education, owing. to the particu-
lar pursuits of life in which I , have been engaged,.
(Loud cheers,). yet no one can .be more sensible
.than Inin of the advantages of such an education in
every pursuit of life—and not only to society in ge-
neral, but to. the individual himselfi, (Applause.)
But. however , convinced I may be of such advan-
tages, I nevertheless c%not take to myself the
credit of having been a leader or original pro-
moter of the proposition which is now submitted to
you. Its, real promoters .are the :Dignitaries and
Governdutrfonr Church ; (Loud applause,) they are
willing to, sacrifice to its promotion not only their pe-
cuniary: means in the way of subscription, but the
aid of their knowledge, time, and attention, in order
to superintend its establishment and future manage-
.lllent---.(c.;heers.) They call,upen you-to come for-
ward this day to give them your assistance in carry-
ing this object into execution.—(Cheers.) Let us
come forward—let us make an effort, in a manner
worthy of this great country, to enable them to esti-.
blish , such a plan as
,may seem to them fit for the.
education of the youth of this metropolis—to,eeable
that youth to perform their duties to their Sovereign
and to their country, in their various situations of
life; and above all, to give them a knowledge of
God,—(Cheers)—a ' knowledge of the principles,
precepts, and examples on which all his doctrines'aie
founded.—(Loud cheers)—a knowledge which shall
teach them to be' satisfied with their lot in this life,

The Duke of NVELLINON ::.t.L.ILed thanks.
The. 4ichbishop of CANTERBURY.infOrMCd ille
Meeting that a letter had: been received front Mr.
Peel, lamenting 'that a domestic calamity (the death
of the Right Hon. Gentleman's sister) took hia'i out
of town. The Right 'Him. Gentleman, ito*evet.,:
subsequently made his appearance, having travtlied".
up. on purpose from the country, but was too late to
take any part in the proceedings,*.the—Noble‘ Duke
having left the chair before his arriyal.
Some subscriptions were thew announced; and.
the Duke of 'Wellington having quitted the room,
the Bishop of Chester was called to, the Chair,
while further subscriptions were being received.
'The Bishop of CrtitsTErt.—l will take this op,
portunity of saying one word in correction of a p)is,.
understandihg which seems to have arisen in.the
'room, that-no one but 'members of "the Church of
England can be admitted' into this .College. Quite
the contrary, however, is 'the case. There will be
no question aske4 as to the church-membership of
any individual, but at the same time the instruetioil
afforded will be specially, such as the Church of
England gives to its •members:. (Hear, hear, hear.)
Thetis to say, it will trot be necessary that the Young'.
people who enter the College: should .be of the
• Church of England, but they will have to .submit.to
such Zseipline, as a College in close connection with
the Church of England will impose. (Applause.)
More subscriptions were then announced, and we believe
that altogether they amounted to 'about 12;0001., inde-
pendently of the shares subscribed for. Among those an-
