Institutions. THE UNIVERSITY LIBRARIES.* At Convocation, April 27th, 1867, a vigorous appeal was made on behalf of a Library Fund by the Rev. G. M. Grant and others. John Tobin, M. P. P., offered a subscription of $200, Dr. Tupper, Provincial Secretary, Dr. Avery, J. A. Sinclair and Rev. G. M. Grant promised $100 each, and Errol Boyd, Curator of the college, subscribed $25. His Excellency the Governor, Sir Frederick Williams, capped the list with $400. In the Calendar for 1869-70 a section on the Library, apparently drafted by Prof. Macdonald, Secretary of the Senate, appears for the first time. "Through the liberality of a number of friends of the College, a library has been formed, which consists of a careful selection of the most useful works in each department of study embraced in the University course. There are likewise a few works in general literature. The library embraces in all upwards of 1100 volumes." Ten years later the number of books did not exceed 2000; twenty years afterwards there were but 3250 volumes; thirty years later 8050 volumes were reported; to-day the Arts Library contains about 11000 volumes and about 2800 pamphlets. Within a year of the organization of the Faculty of Law, 300 volumes were presented for a Law Library. This Library is under the control of the Law Faculty and now numbers about 6550 volumes. See § LV. of the Calendar relating to that Faculty. The Arts Library contains the MACKENZIE COLLECTION of works on Mathematical and Physical Science, which was presented to the College by the relatives of the late Professor J. J. MacKenzie; the ROBERT MORROW COLLECTION of works on Northern Antiquities and Languages, presented by Mrs. Robert Morrow; the SETH COLLECTION of Philosophical works, purchased with the proceeds of a course of public lectures on Psychology given by Professor James Seth; the DEMILLE MEMORIAL, presented by Professor MacMechan from the proceeds of a course of Lectures on Shakspere; the LAWSON Students have access, subject to certain conditions, to the Citizens' Free Library, the Legislative Library, and the Libraries of the N. S. Institute of Science and of the Mining Society. LIBRARY, presented by the daughters of the late Professor George Lawson, LL. D.; the MCCULLOCH COLLECTION, from the Library of the late Rev. W. McCulloch, D. D.; the EDWIN P. ROBINS MEMORIAL COLLECTION of Philosophical books; and the MACDONALD LIBRARY presented by the son of the late Professor Charles Macdonald, M. A. ; also the following CLASS MEMORIAL COLLECTIONS : Class of 1894: Classical Dictionaries. Class of 1895: Sophocles' Plays and Bacon's Works.

Mathematical and Physical Books. The Class memorials are the most important contributions to the Library. The set of the Jesuits' Relations, seventythree volumes in all, is now complete, and to its cost the class of 1896 has contribnted $210. Two more volumes have been added to the new English Dictionary. This is part of the gift of the class of 1899 whose total contributions have now reached the large sum of $248.50. The Class of 1901 has given $114.84 which has been expended largely on Mathematical and Physical Books. The gift of the Class of 1903 will be devoted to the purchase of complete sets of the works of Darwin and Stevenson. These gifts reflect the greatest credit both on the givers and the College that has such generous students. The Accession book shows that about 400 books and pamphlets were given to the library during the session 1902-03. The following graduates have presented copies of their publications to the library. Professor J. G. MacGregor : Kinematics and Dynamics; Professor A. S. McKenzie: The Question of the Divisibility of the Atom; On Some Equations pertaining to the Propagation of Heat in an infinite medium; On an instrument for drawing sine curves; Laws of Gravitation; Dr. E.
