the world whose streets are grossly dlslgured from

the prOfess0rship Of political economy. He says that
Professor Simon y. Pa'ten succeeds Professor momp
SOM In that chair. The chair to which Dr.. Patten
has been elected is creation, aud It's duties lie
entirely within the Wharton school of Finance ard
Economy. The instruction in political economy given
In the other schools of the collegiate department, and
10 the great body of the students viii continue TO be
given by Professor Thompson, who IS and remains
professor OF history and English literature, and never
was professor Of political economy. The appoint
mcnt OF Professor pattcn concerns him only as ~
lleving him OF part Of the work no has done with the
special students Of that subject in the Wharton school
Possibly your correspondent has been misled by
some Of the frcetrade newspapers, which have been
representing election Of Professor Patten as slr
upon the teaching OF political economy that has been
given in the university for tho last eighteen years
Nothing could be further from the truth Professors
Pauen and Thompson are IN entire accord a. Pro-
