There are now about 1,000 volumes in the library of this college. The 
State museum of general and applied science contains about 10,000 speci- 
mens, a part of which has been purchased in Europe, and the remainder 
contributed by the State and individuals. It is intended to make large 
additions to this collection at an early date. 
NEW JERSEY. 
The faculty of Rutgers Scientific School, at New Brunswick, Rev. 
W. H. Campbell, president, which is designated, by an act of the legis- 
lature of New Jersey, the ‘‘State College tor the Benefit of Agriculture 
and the Mechanic Arts,” is the same as given in our last report, with 
the addition of one professor recently appointed to fill the chair of ana- 
lytical chemistry, which has been established and endowed during the 
present year. The chair of mining and metallurgy has also been fully 
endowed. 
The two principal courses of study, namely, civil engineering and 
mechanics and chemistry and agriculture, have been extended from 
three years to four. The number and difficulty of the subjects pursued 
rendered this measure absolutely indispensable to the successful work- 
ing of the school. 
The recitation-rooms have been ‘enlarged and improved, and thor- 
oughly refurnished. Means have been provided for building a new “ geo- 
logical hall,” with rooms for a geological museum, recitations, ete., and 
it is to be erected at an early day. 
Under the direction of Professor George H. Cook, the college farm is 
rapidly recovering from its condition as a “worn-out” place, and very 
strikingly exhibits the sound economy of abundant fertilizing and care- 
ful underdraining. It is also being stocked with thorough-bred cows. 
The number of students for the year ending in June, 1870, is 46. There 
are more students in the school now than at any former period, the in- 
coming class numbering 27. The trustees give diplomas conferring the
