The University of California.
The University of California is located at Berkeley, the most northerly suburb of Oakland, situated about four and one-half miles from the city, and is reached by a horse rail- way from Oakland, and by ferry and steam railroad from San Francisco. That the site was well chosen may be seen by the following from the (manuscript) report of Professor Soule.
"The diversified character of the surface brings into use all the principles of surveying and topography. It is in area 200 acres, is watered by numerous springs in the hills. With the spring water and surface water saved, the grounds can be thoroughly irrigated throughout the year, and made to blossom as the rose. The lower portion of the grounds is flat and moist, throughout the year, and will nourish such trees, flowers and shrubs as require such soil. Then there is a higher plateau, upon which the various buildings have been or are to be located, forming the campus proper. Beyond, toward the Mt. Diablo range, the ground rises into hills, the highest of which is 884 feet above tide water, and 584 feet above the base of the south college. The average height of the tract is 400 feet above tide water. The hilly portion could be well utilized for forestry. The university is supplied with water from a reservoir of 38,000 gallons capacity, situated at the foot of Strawberry Canyon, and at an elevation of 205 feet above the basement of the south college. It will carry water entirely over any building con- templated. Strawberry creek is for a large portion of the year a beautifully clear stream; during the winter it discharges an enormous quantity of water, and runs between steep banks ten to fifteen feet in depth, and with a span of from 30 to 100 feet. Along it are found many shady, quiet nooks, gracious to the scholar, philosopher and naturalist. The soil of the lower portion of the site is a deep rich adobe, capable of being wrought into a soil of great productiveness; on the plateau it is a lighter kind ; on the hills there is a

thin soil of decomposed shale rock, etc. It would be diffi- cult to find within so small an area as the University site a spot with so many varieties and capabilities in the way of soils, irrigation and exposure. The view, too, is magnifi- cent. Facing the Golden Gate, the eye takes in the whole peninsula at a sweep, with its great mart of commerce, its shipping, and the bold yet lovely islands that deck the bay, while to the eastward the towering hills afford a fine back- ground of relief to the eye, as it turns from the extended plain below."
The Constitution of the State requires the legislature to provide for the maintenance of a university, and in March, 1868, a law was passed, creating and organizing the Univer- sity of California. The State appropriated $200,000 from the sale of tide lands, as part of the Endowment Fund. A "Seminary and Public Building Fund," amounting to $100,000, existed, which was made another part of the en- dowment, while the old College of California, which had been in existence since 1855, and had accumulated a large property, transferred it entire to the University ; this latter property was valued at $120,000. Congress had already made a donation of 150,000 acres of land for the eztablish- ment of an Agricultural College in California. Nothing could be more pertinent or proper than making the Agricul- tural College a part and portion of the University, and it was done. This combination of circumstances gives the University a very handsome Endowment Fund, which will be largely increased from the advance in real estate held by it under the grants. Two large and commodious buildings were occupied, though not fully completed, at the commence- ment of the college year, in September, 1873.
The south hall is of brick, one hundred and fifty-two feet in length, average width fifty-six feet, and four stories in height. It contains thirty-four-rooms, six of which are thirty-two by forty-eight in size.
The north hall is built of wood, is one hundred and sixty- six feet in length, average width sixty feet and four stories in height. It is divided into twenty-eight rooms. The assem- bly room is forty-three by fifty-eight feet, and the philosoph- ical lecture room thirty-six by fifty-eight feet. The cost was $357,000.
The institution embraces seven distinct colleges, as fol- lows : Scientific, Agriculture, Mechanics, Engineering, Chemistry, Mining and Medicine.
In the College of Letters the Degree conferred is that of

A. B .; in the College of Science, Bachelor of Philosophy, and in the College of Medicine, M. D.
COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE .- Instruction is given by experi- mental and illustrated lectures, recitations, essays and class discussions, and in the practical illustration of principles upon the University grounds.
COLLEGE OF MECHANICS .- This college educates mechani- cal engineers and machinists. Advanced classes are in- structed in civil engineering to the extent necessary for the purposes of this college, including Mathematics, Physics and Theoretical Mechanics. But the chief object will be to teach Applied or Industrial Mechanics ; to show how the forces of nature are employed for industrial purposes ; and to discuss the nature of the different constructions or ma- chines contrived by human ingenuity. Special attention is given to Industrial Drawing, with view to thorough educa- tion in the principles of construction of machinery.
COLLEGE OF MINING .- In this college are given courses of lectures on Chemistry, Metallurgy, Geology, Mineralogy and Engineering. The laboratories are ample to conduct the most refined investigation.
COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING .- The object of this college is to give thorough instruction in those studies which pertain to the profession of a civil engineer. In the advanced years instruction is also given in Physics, Geology, Zoology, and in certain literary branches, including Modern Languages, History and Political Economy.
COLLEGE OF LETTERS .- The College of Letters maintains two courses, the Classical and the Literary. The former is identical with the general course of studies in the great col- leges of the Eastern States and England. The latter affords a most complete and thorough training in its special studies.
Applicants for admission should be at least sixteen years of age, and bring satisfactory testimonials. Young ladies as well as young men are received as students. There is no charge whatever for tuition.
The number of students now attending the University is reported in the annual catalogue as follows : Seniors 27, Juniors 39, Sophomores 103, Freshmen 98, and other stu- dents in special courses 25.

EDUCATIONAL.
The system of instruction pursued is based upon careful explanation of principles, frequent reviews, and steady and persistent drill. It is believed that by this system the pupil will make, in the end, more rapid progress, and with more lasting results.
The particular attention of parents is called to the monthly reports, which are detailed statements of each student's de- portment and progress in studies. The Principal is always happy to confer with parents in regard to their sons, that he may successfully co-operate with them in forming in the latter a high standard of both scholarship and manhood.
This School was established by Kirk W. Brier. The pres- ent principal received a most thorough education at Howard University, and is considered a most successful instructor.
This School is deservedly popular. A large number of youths are annually fitted for the University at this educational establishment.

State Deaf and Dumb, and Blind Asylum.
This institution is located near the State University at Berkeley. The farm consists of one hundred and thirty acres, eighty acres of which are on the hills fronting the bay. Pure water is supplied by hillside springs, and the elevated site insures the purest of air. Altogether, a better location could not have been chosen. On the 17th of Janu- ary, 1875, the beautiful and costly stone building occupied by the institution was destroyed by fire, and the exigencies of the case, with more than a hundred helpless unfortunates to shelter and'provide for, were indeed great. But the spirit of energy, coupled with that of benevolence, which inspires the citizens of Alameda County, found means to build a tem- porary structure without delay, and, as early as April 21st, three months from the time of the disaster, the school was again opened. Plans for permanent buildings have been made and are now being carried out. They provide for a series of structures including " Homes," a central refectory, school house, etc., all of which, when completed, will accommodate two hundred and fifty pupils. The buildings are of the most substantial character, having concrete and stone foundations,

brick superstructure, walls lined with hollow brick, slate roofs, all partitions of brick, and stone stair-cases through- out. Every arrangement to secure health and comfort has been made, while the system of segregation adopted will be not only a safeguard against fire, but do away with many evils connected with the herding of large numbers under one roof.
The course of studies pursued at this Institute is very nearly the same as that embraced in the public schools and in the seminaries, with the addition of music, which is taught the blind as a means of obtaining a livelihood. The insti- tution is sustianed by the State, but clothing and traveling expenses must be provided by the parents or guardians of the children, except in cases of extreme poverty, when a proper certificate from the County Judge will authorize the directors to supply clothing.
The management of the institution is entrusted to a Board of five Directors, appointed by the Governor. The present Board consists of the following named gentlemen: J. Mora Moss, J. A. Stanly, E. J. Crane, Oakland; H. H. Haight, Alameda, and D. D. Shattuck, San Francisco. Warring Wilkinson, Principal. H. A. Palmer, Secretary and Treas- urer.
A committee of ladies, consisting of Mrs. Mary E. Bray- ton, Mrs. E. Green, Mrs. A. G. Gurnett, Mrs. Harriet A. Warring, Mrs. James A. Folger and Mrs. L. H. Cary visit the institution regularly and look into the domestic arrange- ments.
Instructors in the Deaf and Dumb Department: George B. Goodall, F. P. Fowler, Henry Frank and T. D'Estrella.
Instructors in the Blind Department: Charles T. Wilkin- son, George B. Goodall and Mrs. A. R. Goodall.
