It is much to be regretted that Prof. Lanman has been unable this year, through lack of time, to give the course of lectures on Buddhism announced in the catalogue. This subject has, of late, been receiving special attention among scholars, and the results of their investigations would be of great interest just now to the great majority of students. Every one who heard Prof. Lanman's lectures on the Vedas last year will well understand what he has lost by the omission this year of this course on Buddhism. We are glad to see that the course is announced for next year, and hope that we shall not again be disappointed.
