II.—RESIGNATIONS AND ELECTIONS.
At a meeting of the Council held on the 31st of January of this year, the Honorable Sir Redmond Barry, Knight, M.A., LL.D., being about to leave Victoria for a considerable period on a visit to Europe and America, tendered his resignation of the office of Chancellor, which he had held since the foundation of the University, and expressed his willingness to resign his seat at the Council if it were considered desirable that he should do so.
At a subsequent meeting, the Council, deeply sensible of the long, zealous, and distinguished services rendered to the University by Sir Redmond Barry, passed the following resolution :—
" That the Council do not desire the Chancellor to resign his seat OR a member of the Council, but express their wish that he will retain it during his temporary absence from the colony, with a view of securing a renewal of his valuable ser- vices to the University on his return."
And the Council further resolved—
" That the consideration of the Chancellor's tender of his resignation of office as Chancellor be postponed until the annual elections in May."
The lamented death of the Reverend Irving Hether- ington, who had held the office of Councillor since the opening of the University, caused a vacancy in the Council during the past year ; and his seat was filled by tho election, on the 24th of August 1875, of the Reverend John Edward Bromby, M.A., D.D.
2 0 4 ANNUAL REPORT.
On the 27th of February in the present year John McFarland, Esq., M. A., resigned his seat as a member of the Council, but was re-elected by the Senate with- out opposition, on the 11th of April.
At a meeting of the Senate, held on the 24th August 1875, John Madden, Esq., LL.D., was elected Warden for the ensuing year, in the place of William Edward Hearn, Esq., M. A., LL.D., who did not seek re-election.
Dr. Hearn had very ably discharged the duties of this office for seven consecutive years, with much honour to himself and advantage to the University,
Professor Nanson, who was in the beginning of the year 1875 selected to succeed the late Professor Wilson in the chair of mathematics, pure and mixed, arrived in Melbourne in the month of June 1875, and entered upon his duties at the beginning of the July Term, the work of the professorship having been satisfactorily performed by Mr. Firani from the commencement of the year up to that date.
During the year 1875, Dr. Hearn discharged the duties of Lecturer on History and Political Economy, which he cheerfully undertook at the request of the Council, with a most commendable devotion to the in- terests of the University.
John Simeon Elkington, Esq., M. A., lias since been appointed Lecturer on History and Political Economy, at a salary of £500 per annum.. He will deliver three courses of lectures in history and one in political economy, and will also act as Examiner in all his- torical subjects and in political economy.
' A Lectureship on Natural Philosophy and Logic has been instituted, and Frederic Joy Pirani, Esq., M.A., C.E., has been elected to fill that chair with a salary of
£600 per annum.
In consequence of the duties of William Charles Eernot, Esq., M.A., C.E., the Lecturer on Engineering, having been increased by the delivery of an additional course of lectures, the Council have agreed to remu- nerate him for his services by a salary of £350 per annum and half fees.
ANNUAL REPORT. 2 0 5 Mr. John Frederic Chase James was, on the 13th of
March in the present year, appointed Assistant in the Registrar's office, rice Samuel Summons, Esq., M.A., resigned.
UT.—BUILDINGS.
The Council have, during the last year, bestowed long and careful consideration upon the most judicious mode of expending the munificent gift of £30,000 from Sir Samuel Wilson for the erection of a Hall, and have resolved—
1. That the style of architecture of the building be the Tudor perpendicular, and the windows have the pointed arch of the period.
2. That the walls be of the following materials:—
Outside—Tasmanian freestone.
Interior—Brick.
Inside—Oamaru limestone.
3. That the roof be of the open hammer-beamed form, and made of white pine.
4. That the floor be a plain strong floor of common deal with a tesselated parquet placed over it.
The University architects have been instructed to prepare plans for the Hall in accordance with the above resolution.
The large number of students attending the Medical School of the University has rendered increased accom- modation absolutely necessary for their efficient instruc- tion in Practical Chemistry, and it is the intention of the Council to ask the Government to place a sum not exceeding £2,000 on the Estimates for the present year, for the purpose of erecting a Laboratory large enough to accommodate the students in Medicine and the Me- tallurgical Class.
IV.—STATUTES AND REGULATIONS.
During the last Session of Parliament an Act was passed empowering the Council of the University to confer the Degrees of Bachelor of Snrgery and Master of Surgery, and the necessary Statutes and Regulations under which such Degrees may be conferred will be -framed without delay.

In the First Examination for the Degree of Bachelor of Arts, Ancient History has been added to the subjects of Examination, and De- ductive Logic has been substituted for Logic.
In the Second Examination, History of the British Empire, Part I., has been substituted fori Ancient History, which has, as before stated, been transferred to the First Examination.

In the Second Examination, Inductive Logic has been added, and History of the British Em- pire, Part I., takes the place of History of the British Empire.
Consequent upon this change a new clause has been added, enacting that candidates who pass in jurisprudence and in any three of the four remaining subjects shall thereby complete their second year for the Degree of Bachelor of Laws.

of the Regulations, providing that the Lectures on Descriptive and Surgical Anatomy shall be delivered during three Terms daily, except on Saturdays.
