gree. In this year, twenty-six ladies passed examinations at Cambridge, placing them on the Triposes (or three division rank-lists) of the university. All these ladies received regular certificates.

Candidates for admission are required to pass an entrance examination and furnish a certificate of character. The curriculum embraces: modern languages, classics, mathematics, natural science, moral science, history, and vocal music. The professors of Cambridge have given their services free, and the readings, entertainment's, etc., of the university, with its musical society, are open to students.
