The Annual Statement no The Alumni
The annual pamphlet issued yesterday
pays a tribute to the memory of the late Pro-
fessor Thatcher and notes the completion of
the Sloane memorial physical library and
the Kent chemical laboratory. An equipped
laboratory for the study of physiology and
biology is now needed. The new Lawrence
dormitory is described and the need of a
university gymnasium set forth. A further
expansion of the elective courses is to be
made this year. The number of such courses
is already increased from 81 Qor 'S4) to 81
for 1867. These courses are being more and
more opened to both members of the senior
and junior classes. Thus the teaching force
is economical. Next year certain courses in
political economy and psychology formerly
exclusively senior studies will be begun in
the junior year. The objection to it is the
increased drain on funds already oVerbur-
dened.
The past year has been the most prosper
Gus one the Sheffield Scientific school has
ever known. 1t has had for the current aca-
demic year the largest body of students it
has ever borne on its rolls. The lack of
scientific funds has prevented the governing
board from extending the regular course to
four years. The annual income is about
100000, of which more than $4,000
is paid directly for instruction and less than
$4,000 for heat, light, janitors, etc. To add
a fourth year to the course would require
that the regular annual income be increased
by SIS, 1000.
Appropriate reference is made to the
change of professors in the Theological
school. A generous friend of the school,
who desires his name to be withheld, has
given the sum of So, 900 for the aid of the
students and to meet the standing deficiency
in the professorship fund. This thoughtful
gift has been exceedingly timely and helpful
Another friend has added 81 1000 to the schol-
arship fund. An excellent fac smile copy of
the celebrated HISTORIAN tablet found at
Si-gnan Flu in China has been presented by
the Rev. Arthur H. Smith, an Amer
loan missionary now in this coun-
try, under whose direction it was made on
his visit to that city a few years since.
The present financial condition of the
Medical school is said to be. most unsatisfac-
tory. The sum of $4,000 is wanted to
place the department on a permanent basis
with buildings, professorships, etc. The
statement regarding the Law school and the
department of philosophy and the arts is
burdened with the same cry of 'Fmore money
wanted"
The neurological list for the year en-
braces many well known names.

Contest For The Townsend Prize.
One of the most brilliant occasions of
commencement week was that at Center
church yesterday. The grafton of the day
was by Hon. Wayne MacVeagh, of Philadel-
phia, Yale '53, and clsssmate of George Fl.
Watrous, whose guest he was while in this
city. The church was crowded and a fine
representation of the most cultivated and
intellectual and most successful men in the
professions and in business and commercial
life in the city was present. Many society
ladies were present. The ushers were in
swallow tails and were members of the
graduating class. All were well repaid for
their attendance by the bri1liancy of the ora
ton of the day. The speaker arrived
in carriage with President Woolsey attired
in gown, ex-President Woolsey and Govern
or Harrison. These and others were i'm
pressively escorted into the church by the
dean of the faculty, Judge Wayland. Beside
these there were upon the platform President
Cyrus Northrop of Minnesota college, Hon.
George H. Watrous, Rev. DR.. Burton of
Hartford, Judge Oliver Wendell Holmes (son
of the author of the "Autocrat of the Break
fast Table," now being Honized in his serene
old age in Europe,) and Professors Baldwin,
Townsend and Platt of Yale Law school
Rev. Burdett Hart of Fair Haven and others.
Prayer was offered by President Porter.
The speaking for the Townsend prizes took
place first The first speaker was Lucius

A movement is on foot throughout the
country to introduce a standard barrel for
apples. At present different sizes are used
for different localities, causing much confu-
sion and annoyance to sellers and consumers.
The Western apple barrel is the standard
-four barrel, measuring sixteen and e-half
inches across the head. Going East, the bar
rel grows smaller until the Hudson river
counties are reached. The standard round
hoped barrel is likely to become the standard
apple barrel.
The irregular operation of the mills cut
heavily into the business of the cooper shops
last week. making the barrel sales and manu-
facture quite light. 1t is rather fortunate
for number of the shops that this occurred,
as there were several hard driven to get
enough stock to run with. In one or two in

stoned by lack of stock. Trouble from this
source, however, is now probably over
