Women in Colleges. A Historical Fact.

Mr. Editor: In your issue of to-day, there is
brief editorial respecting the action of the
university of Vermont in opening its doors to
women, in which you award that univ ersity
greater honor than history can allow. You say
"The University of Vermont appears likely to
lead the colleges of this country in admitting
female students to the studies and honors per :
tanning to these institutions"
While this may be true of the colleges of New
England, it is hardly true of the colleges of this
country" AS long. ago as 1887, four women
were admitted to the studies of the collegiate
course in oberlin college, Ohio; and in 1841,
three of them graduated, receiving the same
honor and degree as their male classmates
"the first ladies who have received a literary de-
gree from any college in the country" As they
received their degree thirty years before the re-
ported action of the University of Vermont ad-
hitting ladies, there can be no question of pre-
cedence.
Ninety-one ladies have completed the lar
college course in Oberlin college alone, taking
degrees; besides those who have graduated from
the other western colleges which have adopted
the system from Oberlin. And rejoice with
you that the New England colleges are consid-
eriug the propriety of adopting the same plan.
God speed them. But, following thirty years
behind the college which first graduated women
from its regular course, comforting on them the
same degrees as upon their male classmates
the University of Vermont can hardly be al
lowed the honor of leading in the reform.
AS historical accuracy is of value, and be-
lieving you will be glad to state the facts, have
written this. Very truly yours,
A. HASTINGS Ross.

SERMON MAKING AND PREACHING IN ENG
LAED.-Sermon manufacture in England is on
the increase, and there are at least dozen now
engaged in the business They furnish a half
guinea article when great flights of eloquence
are desired, but the ordinary supply is on much
lower terms, averaging Is. 3D. to Is Cd. SER
mon, postage paid. Two sermons a week, at
this rate, would amount to G5 As. year. In
other words, an annual sum of S26 in gold would
secure to country parson all needful sermons,
without any wear or tear of brain. The writer
is Of the opinion that this secret help is not put
to much use IN towns, as the chances of detection
there are greater, and the number of sermons de-
manded of each clergyman, by reason of the nu-
mercial superiority of the whole class, is con-
siderably less. 1t is in the country districts,
where the same man has to hammer out two
sermons on every Sunday, and on some few
feast days in the year, that the sale is largest.
Surprising that each broker has fifty clients
and less number could scarcely pay expenses,
and make remunerative proft-there would
b e at least / 200 sermons per Sunday provided
by this means. Incidental to this, is an anus
ing note in the last number of the Pail Mall
Budget upon the bad consequences of having
but small supply of sermons. 1t appears that
in one of the country churches, where the in
cumbent has been thirteen years in office, there
is a regular church goer of an arithmetical turn
of mind. From careful observation, he esti-
mates that 1.-THE general stock of sermons pos
sesSed by the vicar has been preached forty
eight times, or has made forty-eight revolu-
tons, and they are far advanced in the
forty-ninth cycle" He considers that he has &C.
curately fixed the date of their composition,
which be believes to be between the thirty-fifth
and the fortieth years of George ILL.,, OF about
seventy-6ve years ago. Two of them, which
are known as the Astronomical Sermons" he
says, are taken from Derham's Astro Theology,
published in 1886, and abound with the errors of
that date Another is supposed to have been
written on the occasion Of the earthquake at
Lisbon, and is known as the Trembling Ser
mon" being suited to occasions of public cal
amity. 1t has already done duty on the occa-
sion Of two revolutions in Spain, twice for com
mercial panics in England, once for the Franco
German war, with a few other similar occasions.
