REPORT TO TIE CoRPoRATIoN OK BROWN USl:
kERSiTY. on CHANGES ~ THE system OF
VI. Nhunty.
The subject OF changes in the system of Educa
ton in Brown University was referred to a Com
miitee. Of hch President Waylanl was Chair
man, a. a meeting Of the Cooperation in December,
lsl9 Tho Report Of that Committee, read at an
adjourned meeting in March last, Is row published
aid fnnl action is TO b, taken on it, at n meeting
appointed to be he'd on the 7th of May. Like all
the productions If its distinguished author. this
document is marked by profound reelection, spirit

Britain, ii was natural that - ancestors should
wish 20 reproduce literary sominarics, similar TO
those Of the mother country. This they accom-
pishcd 20 remarkable extent. Tho Universities
Of Oxford aal Cambridge were established for tho
boncG, of the Clergy. Thcy are infuta'ion' ct a
purely occc,isstical and monssiic character. Their
course of ,tijy was dcagnod fr The education OF
priosts. Tbs order Ernins tho only educated
