Reports Made at the Annual Meeting
 of the COrporatiOn-The Degree of
 M. A. and Admission of Women.
 PROVIDENCE, Sept.6.-The annual meeting of the corporation of Brown university was held in University hall toeday. the session commencing at 10 o'clock. Both the fellows and trustees were well represented at the meeting. The presidents report covered the usual range of subjects with brief notices of five members of the corporation who have died during the year, namely, Rev. D. Wood, Hon. c. s. Bradley of the fellows, and Gen. A. B.. Underwood of the trustees. The death of two other fellows, Hon. R. G. Hazard and Herrick Lyon occurred after the report of the president had been prepared. The estimated value of the receipts during the year is nearly s15O, ,0O0.
 Relative to the master of arts. the report states: "It is we'll known that heretofore all graduates who had been out of college three years could, on application, obtain the de- gree of master of arts. It mattered not in what sort of employment they might have been engaged or what kind of pursuits they followed. At the end of the third year after graduation they might, if they asked for it, receive the degree of master of arts. For the first time in it's history Brown university at it's late commencement conferred the degree in recognition of special work during resi- dence in college after graduation. The an" nouncement is made that advanced nstruc- ton for graduates, with view to confsrring after due examination, the degrees of M. A. and Ph. D., will be an established part of the regular university work. It is course of work, remarks President Robinson, that should have been long ago begun and having been begun it should now be prosecuted with vigor."
 The committee on the admission of wo- men presented theis report through their chairman, Prof. Wm. Gammell. Under the present condition of things the report takes the ground that it woulI he impraeticable to admit young ladies to the full enjoyment of the privileges accorded by the university to students of the other sex. The report, how ever, recommends that certificates setting forth their standing as scholars be given to young women who, upon examination, shall be found worthy to receive them. The cor poration made choice of the following gen tlemen to fill the offices: William Goddard, chancellor: Arnold Buffum Chace, treasurer; Samuel Hunt Caldwell, secretary. Hon. Rowland Hazard, elected trustee in 1875, was chosen fellow It was voted to postpone the election of fellow to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Judge Bradley.

THE RESULT OF AN AUTOPSY
Indicates a Probable Murder III

Indicates a Probable Murder In
 DummerstOn, Vt.
 BRATTLEBoKo, It., Sept. 5.-The select men of Dummerston to-day exhumed for the purpose of having an autopsy the body of Miss Genevra Knapp, late postmistress at that place, who was found dead in her office last week. At the time of her death it was supposed to have been case of heart dis ease. Since then suspicion has been aroused from the fact that funds and stamps of the office are missing, and Frank Dodge, a young farmer of that town, has been arrested o-day, he being, it is claimed, the last one to enter the office before she was found dead by the mail carrier. The autopsy is said to have disclosed the fact that Miss Knapp did not die of heart disease, but that certain marks on her body confirmed the suspicious of murder. The hearing will be held at Dummerston tomorrow.

FORGIVENESS FOR THE PAST.

The President had trouble not only with Canada but with everybody ele. The Senate now knowin3 his views, committed itself against them, 80 did the House. But more regretable than the unfortunate position into which the Presidents silence forced his friends, was the effect it had upon the Cana dian authorities. Finding that what they knew to be an infraction of one treaty stipu- lation was accepted without protest, they waxed bold to disregard at their pleasures, other stipulations of the treaty and the re- suit has been 6 new series of annoyances and aggressions which seemed to be invited by the failure of the President to make .manful protest and to employ the peaceful means of self defense committed to him. But these unpleasant things are behind us. If article 29 was not cancelled by ab- rogation it was by infraction. The re- sponsihility we are willing to leave with the president He is now the president of the message, not the president of the treaty /; he is no longer the governor general of Canada; is now the president of the United Statea He no longer takes the Canadian view, he takes the American view of the stipulation. If now he will act, if he will do anything, we will encourage him in his new departure. We will give him every thing he asks for, necessary or unnecessary. And the past will be forgiven. (Applause.)
 Mr. Belmont said retaliation seemed to be rendered absolutely necessary by the present condition of our reciprocal legislation with Canada. To continue, said MT. Belmont, the privilege now granted by statute in the face of existing facts wonld be to invite further aggressions from Canada, and would be 8 notice to Great Britain, and to all the world, that our protests in behalf of our rights were mere formalities and not to be followed by action.
