THE OVERSEERS AND THE PRESIDENT AND FELLOWS AMEXD STATUTE 15.

NO PROVISIONS ATTACHED TO THEIR ACTION.

At a protracted meeting of the Board of Overseer's yesterday, the following resolution was passed: "Voted to concur with the president and fellows in their vote as follows: 'Voted on the unanimous recommendation of the Plummer professor, and the preachers to the University, that the statute numbered 15, concerning religious services be amended by striking out the clause at which the attendance of students is required.'"

This news was brought to college about six p.m., and was received with undisguised gratification. It is generally understood that the regulation will not take effect till next year.
