REV. WILLIAM HENRY CAMPBELL, D.D., LL.D. Became President, 1863, and resigned June, 1881, but continued to act as President until his successor was inaugurated, June 20, 1882.
Dr. Campbell has been known many years in the States of New York and New Jersey as a thorough-going Biblical preacher-remarkable for his use of strong, terse, Saxon English, and intense earnestness in presenting Divine truth. Nor has he been less distinguished as a clear, vigorous and successful educator. He was born in Baltimore, 1808, and was graduated from Dickinson College in 1828, and three years later from the Theological Seminary at Princeton. His first settlement was at Chittenango, from 1831 to 1833, after which he labored for six years as principal of Erasmus Hall, at Flatbush, Long Island. From 1839 to 1841 he preached at East New York, whence he removed to Albany and assumed charge of the Third Reformed Church. In 1848 he returned to educational pursuits by accepting the principalship of the Albany Academy. Three years later, in 1851, he was called to the Professorship of Oriental Literature in the Theological Semi- nary at New Brunswick, and while in this position he filled, gratuitously, the Pro- fessorship of Belles-Lettres in Rutgers College during a period of twelve years. In 1863 he accepted, after much persuasion, the presidency, and entered with excep- tional enthusiasm and ability upon his work, both of teaching and securing a larger endowment fund for the institution. During his administration over two hundred thousand dollars were raised; six new professorships established; the number of students doubled, and the following buildings erected : a large Geological Hall, a beautiful Chapel, an Astronomical Observatory, a new Grammar School, and certain useful structures on the experimental farm. These works tell their own story of diligent wisdom, and render a well-earned fame secure. With an appre- ciation full of liberality, individual members of the Board of Trustees, by their own personal subscription, provided means for the future support of Dr. Campbell during his lifetime. The willingness of Dr. Campbell to teach "The Evidences of Christianity," and to preach in turn in the College Chapel, was accepted by the trustees, which teaching and preaching ceased upon his becoming pastor of the Suydam Street Reformed Church in New Brunswick.

PRESIDENTS.
MERRILL EDWARDS GATES, PH.D., LL.D. Inaugurated as President of Rutgers College, June 20, 1882.
His father, Seth M. Gates, in Congress from 1839 to 1843, and throughout a long life, was widely known and honorably distinguished for his services in the cause of liberty, justice and Christianity. Through his mother he is descended from Jonathan Edwards. He was born at Warsaw, New York, April 6, 1848; and was graduated from the University of Rochester, at Rochester, New York, in 1870, having taken the highest honors, in successive years, in Mathematics, Latin and Greek, and the English Essay Prize of the Senior year. Before his graduation he accepted the principalship of the Albany Academy, declining a very favorable offer to enter journalistic work, made by a prominent New York editor, who had noticed his literary work in college. During the twelve years of his principalship the Albany Academy extended its course of study from eight years to twelve, covering much of the work of the college course ; while the number of boys and young men in attendance increased from 70 to 300. In 1872 he spent some months in England, visiting Rugby and Oxford, as educational centers. In 1875 he was elected Chancellor of the University of Tennessee, an institution nearly a century old, consisting of a law school and a college. Declining this position, he continued at Albany, notwithstanding repeated offers of college professorships, and more lucrative positions in his profession or in business. In 1879-80, he spent a year in travel and study abroad. «He visited France, Italy, Egypt, Pales- tine and Greece, spending two months at Athens. His foreign correspondence, in the Albany Journal, was widely reprinted by other papers. Harper's Monthly for May, 1881, contains an illustrated paper of his on "Athens and the Modern Greeks," and lectures and addresses upon Greece and the study of Greek have attested his interest in these themes. In 1880 the University of the State of New York conferred on him the honorary degree of Doctor of Philosophy, and in June, 1882, both Princeton College and the University of Rochester gave him the degree of Doctor of Laws. President Gates is thoroughly identified with the cause of education. He has written, spoken and directed the work of the institutions over which he has presided with a view to increasing the efficiency of the work of American colleges by raising the standard of their scholarship and securing better and more thorough work in preparatory institutions. His administration at Rutgers is based upon two maxims : " Thoroughness in all work," and " No room at Rutgers for students who do not have a definite wish, and the manly pur- pose to make the best use of their time and opportunities."
For some years he has been a member of the American Social Science Associ- ation, and has taken an active interest in the Civil Service Reform. He was re- cently appointed by the President of the United States, one of the Board of Indian Commissioners, by the statute, "ten men, eminent for intelligence and philan- thropy," who serve without compensation. He is in demand as a public speaker and lecturer ; and during the last two years has spoken repeatedly in the principal cities of New Jersey, and in New York and New England, on themes of public interest connected with Education, Moral Reforms and Christianity.
