J. C. Andrew, the Rev. D. M. Stuart, D.D., the Hon. W. Gisbornc, and Theophilus Heale, Esq., to be Fellows of the New Zealand University. I have, &c., H. J. Tancred, Esq., Daniel Pollen. Chancellor of the New Zealand University, Christchurch. Extract from the "New Zealand Gazette" of the \2th November, 1874. James Fergusson, Governor. Order in Council. At the Government House, at Wellington, this tenth day of November, 1874. Present: —His Excellency the Governor in Council. Whereas by "The New Zealand University Act, 1874" (hereafter referred to as "the said Act"), it is, amongst other things, enacted that the University of New Zealand shall, after the coming into operation of the said Act, consist of a Chancellor, a Vice-Chancellor, Fellows, and Graduates; and that there shall be twenty-four Fellows, including the Chancellor and ViceChancellor ; and further, that the persons who immediately before the coming into operation of the said Act were the members of the Council of the University created by " The New Zealand University Act, 1870," shall, on the coming into operation of the said Act, be Fellows, together with such other persons as the Governor in Council may appoint, not exceeding in all the said number of twenty-four: And whereas it is expedient that the appointments hereinafter mentioned should be made:

H.—4,

Now therefore, I, the Right Honorable Sir James Fergusson, Baronet, the Governor of the Colony of New Zealand, in exercise and pursuance of the above-recited power, and by and with the advice and consent of the Executive Council of the said colony, do hereby appoint The Rev. John Chapman Andrew, The Rev. Donald McNaughton Stuart, D.D., The Honorable William Gisborne, and Theophilus Heale, Esq., to be Fellows of the said University. Forster Goring, Clerk of the Executive Council.

No. 14. Mr. Tancred to the Hon. the Colonial Secretary. Sir, — University of New Zealand, Christchurch, 25th November, 1874. I have the honor to suggest, with a view of obviating inconveniences which might otherwise arise, that early steps should be taken for bringing " The University Act, 1874/' into practical operation. The University Council, at the close of last session, fixed the next meeting for the second Wednesday in April next, and unless some action is taken by the Government under the new Act, superseding this action of the late Council, the members will be probably in doubt how far they are or are not required to attend on the day named. It will moreover be necessary that the Senate constituted under the new Act should meet without unnecessary delay, for the purpose of completing, or possibly giving a new direction to, the arrangements initiated by the late Council. Especially it is necessary that timely notice of the future course of proceeding in reference to University examinations, whether of undergraduates or candidates for prizes or scholarships, should be given to those interested ; otherwise it is possible that some injustice might be done. Moreover, the Senate may think it necessary to revise and perhaps alter some of the statutes and regulations referring to the examinations. The examinations have hitherto been held during the month of May, and those who are affected by them will, unless other arrangements are made, calculate upon presenting themselves next year at the same time. Under the circumstances, I would suggest that His Excellency the Governor be recommended to call together the Senate as soon as convenient; and I think that the time to be fixed should not be later than the first week in March next. I have, &c, Henry John Tancred, The Hon. the Colonial Secretary, Wellington. Chancellor.

No. 15. The Hon. the Colonial Secretary to Mr. Tancred. Sir, — Colonial Secretary's Office, Wellington, 28th December, 1874. With reference to your letter of the 25th of November last, in which you urge the necessity of calling together the Senate of the New Zealand University at a date not later than the first week in March next, I have the honor to forward herewith a copy of the New Zealand Gazette of the 24th instant, containing an Order in Council, calling a meeting of the Senate on the Ist day of March now next. I have, &c., H. J. Tancred, Esq., Daniel Pollen. Chancellor of the University of New Zealand, Christchurch. Extract from "New Zealand Gazette" of the 24tk December, 1874. Normanby, Administrator of the Government. Order in Council. At the Government House, at Wellington, this twenty-second day of December, 1874. Present: —His Excellency the Administrator of the Government in Council. Whereas by the fourteenth section of " The New Zealand University Act, 1874," it is amongst other things enacted that the Senate of the University constituted under the said Act shall meet at least once in every year, at such time and place as shall be determined by the Senate at its last meeting, such place of meeting to vary from year to year ; and further, that the Governor in Council shall determine the time and place for the first meeting of the Senate;

Now, therefore, I, George Augustus Constantine, Marquis of Normanby, the Administrator of the Government of the Colony of New Zealand, in exercise and pursuance of the power and authority vested in me by the said Act, and by and with the advice and consent of the Executive Council of the said Colony, do hereby determine that the first meeting of the said Senate shall be held at noon of Monday, the first day of March now next, at the General Government Buildings, in Moles worth street, in the City of Wellington. Approved in Council. Forster Goring, Clerk to the Executive Council.

No. 16. The Hon. the Colonial Secretary to Mr. Tancred. (Telegram.) Government Buildings, 16th December, 1874. Will you kindly say whether in your opinion the duration of office of present Chancellor and Vice-Chancellor should be extended to one year from 31st August last, or be sooner determined, and, if so, when ? Vide section 7, Act 1874. H. J. Tancred, Esq., Daniel Pollen. Chancellor New Zealand University, Christchurch.

No. 17. Mr. Tancred to the Hon. the Colonial Secretary. (Telegram.) Christchurch, 19th December, 1874. I think present Chancellor and Vice-Chancellor should hold office till meeting of Senate.

I have, &c, H. J. Tancred, Esq., Daniel Pollen. Chancellor of the University of New Zealand, Christchurch. Extract from " New Zealand Gazette" of the 31s£ December, 1874. Normanby, Administrator of the Government. In pursuance and exercise of the power and authority vested in me by the provisions of " The New Zealand University Act, 1874," I, George Augustus Constantine, Marquis of Normanby, the Administrator of the Government of the Colony of New Zealand, do hereby determine that the persons who immediately before the coming into operation of the said Act were respectively the Chancellor and Vice-Chancellor of the University created by " The New Zealand University Act, 1870," shall be and remain the Chancellor and Vice-Chancellor respectively of the University created by the said first-mentioned Act until the third day of March now next.

The examination papers for the yearly examination are framed at the discretion of the examiners. To obviate difficulties arising from difference of opinion amongst masters in Harmony, the examiners will accept as correct all answers given in accordance with any standard work on Harmony. The books recommended for study are—Sir Frederick Ouseley's Harmony, Canon and Fugue; Albreehtberger's Guide to Composition (vols. 2 and 3of the entire work) for Counterpoint, Canon and Fugue; and Cherubini, for the same. " V. The final examination for the degree of B.Mus. is conducted in writing. The candidate is required to add three parts in the strict style to a given subject, placing the subject successively in each part: this without access to an instrument. Also, with access to an instrument if desired, to write a single fugue in at least three parts, in the free style, to a given subject. Also to compose a piece of vocal music on given words, in at least four parts, with an accompaniment for the organ or for not more than five stringed instruments. To these, which are imperative, the examiners will add, at their discretion, further tests of proficiency. Instrumental performance will not be tested or taken into account.

ANNUAL REPORT. In compliance with the 28th clause of " The New Zealand University Act, 1874," the Senate makes the following report to His Excellency the Governor of the proceedings of the University since the date of last report: — Under the authority of His Excellency the Governor, as prescribed by " The New Zealand University Act, 1874," the Senate met on the first day of March last, at the Government Buildings, at Wellington, and, on the day appointed by the Governor, elected Henry John Tancred, Esq., to be Chancellor, and Hugh Carleton, Esq., to be Vice-Chancellor of the University for five years. " The New Zealand University Act of 1874" materially altering the functions and duties of the University, the Senate have endeavoured during the present session loyally to carry out the provisions and requirements of that Act. The Senate have with this view repealed the statutes and regulations previously in force, and have enacted others in accordance with the present constitution of the University. A copy of these statutes and regulations has, as directed by the Act, been submitted for the approval of His Excellency the Governor. The Senate have drawn the attention of the Government to the necessity of immediate steps being taken for preserving from alienation certain educational reserves under " The University Endowment Act, 1868," and other Acts, for the purposes of a Colonial University, and securing their utilization for the purpose named in " The New Zealand University Act, 1874," namely, " for promoting higher education in the respective provinces in which such reserves are situate, in such manner as the General Assembly may from time to time determine." Copies of the resolutions passed by the Senate on this subject are appended to this report. The affiliated institutions have continued to do this work satisfactorily during the period under review. Several students have matriculated to the University, and are now pursuing their studies preparatory to the attainment of a degree. Four institutions have been affiliated to the University since the date of the last report— namely, the University of Otago; Christ's College, Christchurch; the Canterbury College; and St. John's College, Auckland. The Canterbury Collegiate Union has been dissolved, and consequently has ceased to be an affiliated institution. The scholarship examination was held in May and June, 1874/ and 18 scholarships were awarded. New regulations have been framed for future examinations for scholarships, and changes have been made during the present session in the value of scholarships, which the Senate hope will stimulate students, and so tend to the advancement of learning. One essay only was sent in last year for competition for the " Bowen prize," which did not appear to the examiners to be of sufficient merit to entitle the writer to the prize; consequently no award has been made. A statement of the income and expenditure of the University for a period of eleven months ending 28th February, 1875, is appended to this report. Henry John Tancred, Bth April, 1875. Chancellor. Resolution of the Senate of the University. March 3rd, 1875. " That a respectful application be made to the Colonial Government, representing the desirability of the immediate issue of a Proclamation by the Governor, required by the second paragraph of the 30th section of ' The New Zealand University Act, 1874/ defining the block of land in Taranaki, consisting of 10,000 acres, taken under the 'New Zealand Settlements Acts/ and referred to in the schedule of ' The University Endowment Act, 1868/ " Resolution of the Senate of the University. March 3rd, 1875. " That in addition to the endowments of land referred to in the resolutions passed this day by the Senate of the New Zealand University, the enclosure to the letter dated 3rd June, 1871, from the Hon. the Colonial Secretary to the Chairman of the Council of the University, shows that there are other blocks of land—including one of 20,000 acres in the district of Tauranga, in the Province of Auckland—in different provinces which have been officially stated to have been, or promised to be, reserved as endowments for a Colonial University.

H.—4

15

" That these lands, reserved or promised to be reserved, fairly come within the category of reserves under ' The University Endowment Act, 1868/ or any Act for the purposes of a Colonial University, and are subject to the provisions of ' The New Zealand University Act, 1874/ that the proceeds thereof, after the payment of the expenses of the management thereof, ' shall be dealt with for promoting higher education in the respective provinces in which such reserves are situate, in such manner as the General Assembly may from time to time determine/ "That this Senate would respectfully urge the Colonial Government to take immediate steps to secure these lands, that the educational trust thus imposed on them by law may be duly fulfilled." Resolution of the Senate of the University. March 3rd, 1875. "1. That, from public documents furnished by the Colonial Government to the Senate of the New Zealand University, it appears, — " (a.) That in June, 1869, the Resident Minister at Auckland stated that he had set apart, and withdrawn from sale, as an endowment for a Colonial University, the following, amongst other blocks of land (G, No. 8, page 7, Appendix to Journals H.R., 1871) : — " Waikato District. " Parish of Taupiri .. .. .. .. .. 10,000 acres. " Parish of Karamu .. .. .. .. .. 10,000 „ " Opotiki District. "Parish of Waimana .. .. .. .. 10,000 acres. " (».) That ' The University Endowment Act, 1868/ validates the reservation, for endowment of a Colonial University, to be designated by the General Assembly, of certain lands described in the schedule to such Act, among which is included 10,000 acres of confiscated lands in the Province of Auckland. " (c.) That by notice dated Bth January, 1873 (published in Neiv Zealand Gazette, 9th January, 1873, page 11), the Hon. J. Hall, Colonial Secretary, returns, under the New Zealand Settlements Acts, as an endowment for the University of New Zealand, as contributed by ' The New Zealand University Act, 1870/ three blocks of confiscated land, containing each 10,000 acres, apparently the same as stated by the Resident Minister at Auckland in 1869 to have been set apart as an endowment for a Colonial University. " (d.) That 'The New Zealand University Act, 1874 ' (section 30), enables the Governor in Council to make regulations for placing to a separate account the proceeds from all lands within any province, other than Otago, reserved under 'The University Endowment Act, 1868/ or any other Act for the purposes of a Colonial University, and enacts that such proceeds, and the proceeds from the investment thereof, after the payment of the expenses of the management of such lands, shall be dealt with for promoting' higher education in the respective provinces in which such reserves are situate as the General Assembly may from time to time determine. " (c.) That a notice signed by the Hon. D. Pollen, for the Secretary of Crown Lands, dated Ist September, 1874 (one day after the date of the Royal assent to the Act just above referred to), and published in the New Zealand Gazette, 3rd September, 1874, page 597, notified that, on grounds of error and want of authority of law, the aforesaid notice of the Hon. J. Hall, Colonial Secretary, was absolutely cancelled. " (/.) That the opinion of the Attorney-General, furnished to the New Zealand University on the 15th April, 1874 (H. —3a, page 2, Appendix to Journals of H.R., 1874), states that it is clear, from official correspondence and other evidence, ' that there was no intention to treat these sections of land otherwise than as reserved under "The University Endowment Act, 1868 •" but that the action was illegal, because it was not a proclamation by the Governor under " The Confiscated Lands Act, 1867," and because the existing University was endowed, and not such University as should thereafter be expressly named by the Legislature as the object of these endowments/ The Attorney-General also states his opinion that while no valid reserve has been made of two of the blocks for any University, there is clear intention ' as to these two' to reserve them for the same University which shall be declared to be the object of the reserves made under ' The University Endowment Act, 1868 / and as to those two blocks, and the third specified in the schedule to ' The University Endowment Act, 1868/ the existing University had no claim. He also states that under the New Zealand Settlements Acts a withdrawal of a reserve, or a change of the purpose thereof, must be made, if made at all, by the Governor in Council." " 2. That a careful consideration of the foregoing facts shows the clear intention of the Government to reserve two of the blocks in question as an endowment for a Colonial University, or, in other words, to add them to the reserves made under ' The University Endowment Act 1868 / and that the third block, or, if not that actual block, another block of 10,000 acres is expressly reserved by that Act."

H.—4

16

"3. That 'The New Zealand University Act, 1874/ points out the course to be observed with reference to reserves made under ' The University Endowment Act, 1868/ with a view of the preservation of these lands as educational endowments within the provinces in which they are made." "4. That the Senate of the New Zealand University, as the guardian of educational interests, and intimately connected as it has been with the reservation of these lands, and the Acts relating to them, respectfully urges on the Government the necessity of adopting the course referred to before the alienation of these lands can render that course impossible."
