The Proprietors, grateful for the extensive Patronage with which the Public have honoured their Globes, beg to observe, that they have at a very considerable expense, materially corrected the whole of the Plates, and have availed themselves of the Voyages and Travels of Cook, VANCOUVER, DE LA PEROUSE, PARK, CLARKE and LEWIS, HUMBOLDT, FLINDERS, ELPHINSTONE, and the Discoveries of Captains ROSS, PARRY, and FRANKLIN, towards the North Pole, and Major DENHAM in the Interior of Africa, which have enabled them to make many very important additions and alterations. The utmost pains have been taken to render their Globes both exact and elegant, and they datter themselves that they exhibit every Improvement to the present time.

OPENING OF

THE UNIVERSITY OF LONDON,

FOR THE SESSION 1828-9.

THE Council published last July a general view of the nature and objects of the Institution. They are now advanced so far in their preparations for opening the University as to be able to lay before the public an account of the proposed method of tuition and of the Courses of Study adapted to particular objects; with a detail of the days and hours when the several Professors are to teach, and of the Fees. This "Second Statement" is to be had of J. Taylor, Bookseller to the University, 30, Upper Gower Street; Longman and Co., Paternoster Row; Murray, Albemarle Street; at the University Chambers, 29, Percy Street, Bedford Square; of Adam Black, Edinburgh; and Hodges and Smith, Dublin. Price 1s. 6d. The "First Statement" to be had as above, Price 1s.

The following Abstract contains the more important parts of the "Second Statement."

I. Of the Days and Hours when the different Branches of Education are to be taught. The different branches of study for which Professors have been appointed, are such as properly belong to an University; and in the arrangement of the subjects to be taught in the Classes which will be attended by the junior students, it has been assumed that they will come possessed of that elementary knowledge which boys who leave school at fourteen or fifteen years of age have generally acquired.

The Lecture Rooms will be open to all who comply with the terms and the regulations of the University, without limitation as to age, and without examination as an indispensable preliminary. Persons who wish to attend the Lectures of one Professor only will be admitted; but those who intend to apply for University Certificates and other distinctions, must go through certain courses of study; for these testimonials will be granted to such students only, as upon examination at regular intervals are found to possess that knowledge by which the value of the Certificate or of the academical honour will be determined.

The following are the days and hours when the different Classes are to be taught. Unless otherwise expressed, the Lectures are to continue throughout the whole Academical Session, which will commence the First of November, and continue to the middle of July, with the exception of the Medical Classes, which will open the First of October and terminate about the end of May. There will be short vacations at Christmas and Easter.

the Council will make every effort to obtain a Hospital which shall be under their own direction. In the mean time, an opportunity has occurred of making an arrangement by which the pupils will have it in their power to witness the Medical and Surgical practice in the Middlesex Hospital; and DR. WATSON, one of the Physicians, and CHARLES BELL, Esq. one of the Surgeons, of that Hospital, having accepted the appointments of Professors of Clinical Medicine and Clinical Surgery, the Lectures in this department will be delivered at the University as follows:

CLINICAL MEDICINE, on Monday and Wednesday Evenings, from 6 to 7.

About 60 hours of instruction, Fee £4. SURGERY and CLINICAL SURGERY, on Tuesday, Thursday and Friday Evenings, from 6 to 7.

About 90 hours of instruction, Fee £5. Dispensary Attendance. The Council have established a Dispensary in one of the adjoining streets, to be attended by the Medical and Surgical Professors of the University.

Since the publication of the " Second Statement," Mr. P. F. MERLET has been appointed TEACHER of the FRENCH LANGUAGE.

THE COUNCIL WILL CONTINUE, UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE, TO RECEIVE APPLICATIONS FROM CANDIDATES FOR THE FOLLOWING PROFESSORSHIPS

WHICH ARE STILL VACANT.

Logic and Philosophy of the Human Mind. Moral and Political Philosophy. History, Ancient and Modern. Surgery. Mineralogy and Geology.

II. Of the Fees to be paid by the Students. The Fee payable for each Course includes the remuneration to the Professor, and a payment to the fund from which the annual expenses of the University are to be defrayed. It has been deemed necessary to state the number of hours of tuition, because the term " Course of Lectures,” as commonly used, would give an inadequate idea of the amount of instruction which the student will receive for each Fee.

If

That scale of Fees applies to students nominated by a Proprietor; all who are not so noininated must pay an addition of 1. 10s. to the University Fund for each Course of Lectures, continuing throughout the Academical Session, unless they attend more than three. they attend a greater number, this extra payment will not be required for the additional Courses. The additional Fee to be paid by students not nominated, will be 15s. for each of those Courses which continue during one half of the Session, and for the Summer Course of Botany.

Those who become regular University students, that is, students entered for a complete course of education, whether general or professional, must pay a Matriculation Fee of 21. the first year of their attendance, which will entitle them to admission to the Library and Museums for four successive Sessions.

dents must pay annually 10s. for one Course, and 1. for two or more Courses, which payment will entitle them to admission to the Library and Museums.

THE COUNCIL ARE NOW READY TO RECEIVE THE NAMES OF PUPILS WHO MEAN TO ATTEND THE UNIVERSITY DURING THE SESSION WHICH IS TO COMMENCE 1st OCTOBER NEXT.

The Register in which the names will be inscribed, will be found, until 1st Oct. at the University Chambers, No. 29, Percy Street, Bedford Square, and afterwards at the University, every day, except Sunday, from nine in the morning to five in the afternoon. The parents and friends of pupils, or the pupils themselves who may wish to see THE WARDEN before entering their rames, may call at the Chambers between Two and Five o'clock, on Mondays, Wednesdays, or Fridays. As an interview is desirable between the Professors and their pupils, in order that the former may ascertain the state of preparation of the student, and adapt his instruction accordingly, the address of the Professors may be obtained at the Chambers. And Students are requested to enter their names, and see the Professors whose Courses they mean to follow, as early as possible.

Proprietors have the right of having one student of their nomination at the University for every share of One Hundred Pounds which they possess; and Donors of Fifty Pounds have the same privilege.

III. Of the Courses of Study.

It is probable that, in the majority of instances, those who enter as regular University students will be disposed to attend the Lectures in that order which the Council think most advantageous for a complete general education. To such students the following Course for four years is recommended. Those who are already advanced beyond the Junior Classes may begin in that part of the Course for which they are most fitted by previous attainments; but as the examinations for the University Certificates and other distinctions will include what is taught in the carlier as well as in the later years of study, the pupil ought to ascertain before he passes over a Junior Class, that he is fully prepared to undergo an examination upon all that is to be learned in it.

FIRST YEAR.-Junior Latin, Junior Greek, and Junior Mathematics.

SECOND YEAR.-Senior Latin, Senior Greek, and Senior Mathematics.

A student may this year substitute Junior Natural Philosophy for Senior Mathematics, or he may attend both Classes.

Rooms are provided for the accommodation of the pupils during the intervals of lecture; and suitable refreshments will be sold within the Building, by a Steward (appointed by the Council) upon his own account, but subject to regulations both as to what he is to supply and the prices to be charged.

IV. Of Examinations and Certificates.

It is intended that in every class in the University, the Professor shall devote a certain portion of the hours of instruction in each week to the examination of his pupils.

The manner of conducting these examinations and the frequency of their recurrence, must necessarily vary; and as each Professorship will probably require a separate plan of examination, the details can only be properly settled in concert with the several Professors.

Persons who may be desirous of attending Lectures in the University, without submitting to examination, will be at liberty to do so.
