The reagents, gas, and fuel are furnished by the laboratory. 
III. Students engaged in quantitative analysis have to supply themselves with a set 
of weights. 
Balances, barometers, thermometers, burettes, and graduated vessels are furnished 
by the laboratory. All breakages are to be made good. 
IV. In special scientific investigations chosen by the students themselves, the 
substances investigated or the materials employed for obtaining them shall be found 
by the students at their own expense, and also the materials employed in the prepara- 
tion, purification, and analysis of such substances, when employed in large quantities 
or chemically pure, such as ether, absolute alcohol, carbonate, and caustic barytes, 
&c., &c. 
Raw cheaper materials, such as carbonate of soda, acids, &c., will be supplied by 
the College. 
V. All preparations made from materials supplied by the College become the 
property of the College. 
VI. No experiments of a dangerous character are to be performed without the 
previous knowledge of the professor or his assistant. 
The charge for instruction in the chemical laboratory is twelve 
pounds for three months, nine for two months, and five for one 
month. 
Physics. 
The course on Experimental Philosophy consists at present of 
forty lectures, which are thus divided : — 
I. Four Lectures on Magnetism. — The natural magnet or load- 
stone ; excitement of magnetism ; magnetic polarity ; magnetic 
induction ; magnetic curves ; measurement of magnetic force ; 
applications to the phenomena of terrestrial magnetism. 
II. Six Lectures on Frictional Electricity . — Electrical excita- 
tion ; duality of the electric force ; electrometers ; hypothesis of 
electric fluids ; conduction and insulation ; distribution of elec- 
tricity on the surfaces of conductors ; action of points ; lightning 
conductors ; the condenser ; the Leyden jar ; the electrophorous ; 
discharge of the Leyden battery through various media; mea- 
surement of electric force ; applications to the phenomena of 
atmospheric electricity. 
III. Six Lectures on Voltaic Electricity . — Discoveries of Gal- 
vani and Volta ; simple Voltaic combinations ; the Voltaic pile ; 
contact and chemical theories ; galvanometers ; magnetic action 
of electric current ; action of magnets and of the earth upon 
moveable currents ; action of currents upon each other ; chemical
