Wait, Ithaca, N. Y. Copies of this An- nouncement may he obtained of the Secretary. New editions will be issued at intervals during the year. '( if ' .1 f The Correspondence University is an association of experienced instructors, who have been carefully selected, not only for their knowledge of the subjects assigned to them, but for their skill and ability in teaching. Its purpose is to enable students to re- ceive at their homes systematic instruction, at a moderate expense, in all subjects which can be taught by means of correspondence ; whether the studies be collegiate graduate or professional, or preparatory for the higher institutions of learning. As the Correspondence University is designed to supplement the work of other educational institutions, by instructing persons who from any cause are un- able to attend them, it hopes to be cordially welcomed by the authorities of the schools and colleges iii the United States and Canada. It is not to be conducted for or against the interests of any other organization, but its members desire to be helplul to all. It will doubtless stimulate to methodical study persons who otherwise might find no opportunity for intellectual work, and is thus likely to increase the number of worthy applicants for admission to good schools. In- structors will always be selected for their special qualifications, without regard to the institutions with which they happen to be connected. / Those whom it is intended directly to benefit are: (1) persons engaged in proffjs.sional studies wliich can be taught by correspondence; (2) graduates doing collegiate or advanced work; (3) under- teachers in the various schools and colleges; (4) those preparing for college, either by themselves or at schools where instruction is not given in all branches ; (5) members of cultivated lamilies that are obliged to live in remote localities ; (6) officers and men in the United States army or navy ; (7) per- sons who intend to try any of the civil service exami- nations; (8) young men and women in stores or shops, or on fiirms, who are desirous to learn, but cannot leave their labors to attend school ; and, finally, those in any walk of life who would gladly take up some study under competent private guidance. Informal examinations by correspondence will be held at intervals by each instructor, at his discretion ; they will involve no extra expense and will be re- quired of every student. Besides the above, Pass and H(mor examinations will be held, open to such students as desire to take them, on payment of the fees named below. The pass examinations, at the end of a course in any subject, will be conducted by the instructors in charge ; the honor examinations, on the first Wednesday in December of each year (beginning in 1884), will be conducted by distin- guished specialists who have had no share in the in- struction of the students. The pass and honor examinations will be written in the presence of some gentleman of high character who resides near the i' person examined; and certificates, signed by the examiner, ^vill be given to those who succeed in them. The fee for four weeks' tuition in any study of the grade required for admission to a college or scientific school, and in some collegiate studies, will be six dollars and thirty-five cents, payable in advance. The fee for four weeks' tuition in studies of an advanced grade will be eight dollars and thirty-five cents, payable in advance. For a pass examination, including the certificate of passing, the fee will be the same as for four weeks' tuition in the study concerned; for an hone exami- nation and certificate the fee will be ten dollars. The above mentioned fees do not include text- books, nor special notes and commentaries of instruct- ors which have to be printed or otherwise reproduced. Text-books will be sent to students, free of postage, on remitting the retail price to the Secretary. Teachers and students, not wishing to take a sys- * tematic course of instruction, but desirous of occa- sional assistance on points of special difficulty in any subject, will receive the needed help on application to the Secretary. Manuscript intended for publica- * tion will be revised and criticised. The fee for services of this class will be from one dollar upwards, according to the extent and importance of the work, as estimated by experts on submission of the subject matter. ^ I f i ^&. , SCIENCE 1 » AGRICULTURE.

Mr. Platti haa taught Nine years in Wells College. He will give the following courses of instruction, by cor- respondence : (1) History of Miisic and Musical Critidam. (2) Harmony. Lessons based on methods of Tiersch and C. Piutti. The student must be prepared in musical notation, time, and tonaUty ; the ability to play simple four-part songs on the piano-forte is desirable. (3) An Advisory Piano Course. Rapid and steady progress in piano playing is largely due to a judicious choice of studies and instructive compositions. Owing to the difficulty of selecting proper music, many play- ers come to a stand-still, after their lessons have ceased, because they do not know what to play. Teachers, also, in small towns where there are few concerts, and where there is little competition and no stock of good netv music at hand for examination, are apt to waste their own time and that of their pupils by .in inappropriate choice of material for instruction. For such persons the Advisory Piano Course is designed; not to interfere with the instruction of good teachers, but to serve as a guide to all who need one ; to assist in the choice of pieces; to point out special difficulties and means of conquering them; to advise in regard to the best editions of standard works; to aid even in the choice of instruments ; in short, to give all possible assistance in the study of piano-playing. The fee for four weeks' tuition in courses (1) and (2) is $8.35 ; in course (3), $6.35. vp ^2 PHYSIOLOGY. A Burt G.
