Yale Musical Department.

The musical department of Yale has just instituted a permanent feature in a symphony orchestra, the first of the kind organized in any university in the country. The orchestra, which includes about 40 of the best musicians, affords the pupils of the school an excellent opportunity for having their own compositions played. The faculty has voted a special appropriation of $1 500 for carrying out these plans. Hereafter certificates of proficiency in music, similar to academic diplomas, will probably be given to graduates of this department.
