PROSPECTUS.
IN order to provide for the Inhabitants of Liverpool an
Education suited to their wants, upon the most moderate
terms, and, at the same time, to maintain indissolubly the
connexion between sound religion and useful learning, it is
Lroposed to found a New Establishment, to be called " THE
IVERPOOL COLLEGIATE INSTITUTION—FOR THE EDUCA-
TION OF THE COMMERCIAL, TRADING, AND WORKING
CLASSES," in which instruction in the doctrines and duties of
Christianity. as taught by the United Church of England and
Ireland, shall, for ever, be communicated in combination
with Literary, Scientific, and Commercial information. And,
with a view to the permanence of the Institution upon this
basis, it is intended that all its Officers, Professors, and
Masters, except the the Teachers of certain Foreign Lan-
guages, shall be members of the Established Church, but
that no distinction shall be made in the admission of Pupils,
and that only the Children of members of the Church of
England shall be required to learn the Church Catechism.
The more effectually to secure the assistance of all ranks
of society in accomplishing the objects of this Institution,
it is proposed that the instruction which it will afford
shall be given in three distinct departments, namely, two
Day Schools, and an Evening School. The system of
Education proposed for the first school will include the
Classics, English Literature and Composition, Geogra-
phy, Civil and Ecclesiastical History, Modern Languages,
Mathematics, Natural History and Philosophy, Chemistry,
Drawing, and every other branch of useful learnitur The
various classes will be placed under the care of able Univer-
sity Graduates, whose constant duty it will be to provide in
the most effectual manner for the great objects of education
—moral and religious training, the communication of gene-
ral knowledge, and specific preparation for the after-pursuits
of life. The instruction to be given in the second school
Will be on a more limited and less expensive scale; but it
will embrace the various requisites of a sound general educa-
tion, so as to enable the pupils to enter upon the business of
life with advantage to themselves and the community. The
masters engaged in this department will be likewise carefully
selected, with a view to their literary and scientific attain-
ments ; and it is confidently anticipated that this division of
the Institution will become highly popular. The exercises
of each School will be commenced and terminated with prayer,
at which the attendance of every pupil will be required; and
the reading and exposition of the Holy Scriptures will form
a portion of the daily business of the Schools. The Even-
ng School is principally designed for the instruction and im-
provement of those whose education has been comparatively
neglected in early life ; but provision will be made in it to
enable young men to pursue particular branches of Classical,
Mathematical, or Commercial knowledge. Classes will be
organised for the study of Navigation, Geography, Nautical
Astronomy, Naval Architecture, and Civil Engineering, which
branches will he taught on a scale commensurate with their
growing importance to the interests of this port ;—and. with
a view of still further adding to the usefulness of these classes,
examinations of the pupils connected with them will periodi-
cally take place, and certificates of proficiency be granted to
them. Able masters will likewise be provided for the tuition
of students in English Grammar, Writing, Arithmetic, Ar-
chitectural, Ornamental and Figure Drawing and Modelling,
Chemistry, Natural Philosophy, and the modern languages,
as well as for the communication of such other learning as
may be calculated to enlarge their sphere of usefulness, and
render them happier and better members of society.
Independently of the Schools, it is intended that this In-
stitution shall possess a spacious Hall, in which popular
Lectures may be delivered from time to time. And as the
Institution flourishes and funds are supplied, it is intended
that every addition requisite for the advancement of the Pu-
pils in Literature, Science, and Art, shall be provided, and
suitable buildings erected for a Museum, Library, &c. on a
scale adapted to the increasing wants of the community.
To connect the Institution more closely with the various
classes for whose improvement it is designed, and to secure.
the services of the most efficient individuals in its manage-
ment, it is proposed that the general direction of its affairs
shall be entrusted tO,R Committee of thirty-six persons, to be,
elected from the Clergy, Merchants, Professional Men and
Gentlemen, Tradesmen, and Mechanics. It is intended that
