arts, in order to promote the liberal and practical education of the industrial classes in the several pursuits and professions in life." The objects contemplated in the charter of the University of Vermont are stated in the Preamble and Sections as given above. The charter of the University of Vermont and State Agricultural College requires that "there shall, at all times, be maintained in the institution hereby created such instruction in the various branches of learning as is contemplated in the several charters of each of the institutions hereby united; and more particularly including a four years' course of studies, similar to such as are generally taught in other colleges and not inferior to that recently taught in said University of Vermont; and in addition to that which is usually taught in other colleges, the instruction in this institution shall include such enlarged facilities, and extended scope and variety in the study of those branches which relate to military tactics, agriculture and the mechanic arts, as shall render the whole instruction in conformity with said Act of Congress, as well as with the several charters aforesaid." Section II of the Charter provides that, for the purpose of receiving property by gift, grant, bequest or otherwise, and for certain other purposes therein specified, each of the original corporations shall be deemed and treated as having continued in life. Gifts and bequests may therefore be made to (1) the University of Vermont, (2) The Vermont Agricultural College, (3) The University of Vermont and State Agricultural College. By the provisions of "An act to apply a portion of the proceeds of the public lands to the more complete endowment and support of the colleges for the benefit of agriculture and the mechanic arts, established under the provisions of an Act of Congress approved July second, eighteen hundred and sixty-two," the institution receives from the United States Treasury an annual appropriation to be applied only to instruction in Agriculture, the Mechanic Arts, the English language, and the various branches of mathematical, physcial, natural, and economic science, with special reference to their applications in the industries of life, and to the facilities for such instruction." 66 ON THE PART OF THE UNIVERSITY OF VERMONT HON.
