The library of the University contains about 15,000 volumes. Import- 
ant additions have recently been made to the cabinet of natural history, 
which now contains 3,500 hthological specimens, 3,000 mineralogical, 
1,000 metallurgical, 5,000 geological, 6,000 conchological, 350 ornitholog- 
ical, 1,000 zodlogical, 10,000 botanical, 200 archeological, and 250 numis- 
matic. Besides these, there are 10,000 zodlogical specimens, 5,000 geo- 
logical, and 5,000 miscellaneous, belonging to individuals connected 
with the University, to all of which the students have access. 
The scholastic year commences about the first of September, and
