Besides the Normal, there are also Preliminary, Winter, Scientific and Classical Preparatory courses. The Preliminary course embraces all the common school studies and a successful examination in each must be passed before the student can graduate in any of the other departments; while the successful examination in the Preliminary course is the test by which the scholar gains admission to the Scientific and Classical Preparatory courses. The Scientific course (which includes Latin and German) embraces studies, to complete which and graduate, requires four years of constant study. This is the time usually allotted in the best institutions of the country. Not only have new studies been introduced, but those formerly included have been so extended as to give the student as complete information on the various subjects as can be expected in such a course, without making spe- cialties of them. Every effort has been made to arrange the course so as to place the studies in the. natural order, and thus each new one becomes in part a review and supplement of the study just completed. But in cases where no such natural relation exists, the studies have been so arranged that when a knowledge of one will be of any assistance to the aquisition of another, the order in which they occur will secure this end. When the student has passed a successful examination in all the studies of this course, he will have conferred upon him the degree of Bachelor of Science and will receive a diploma.
The Winter Course is specially arranged with a view to the accommo- dation of students who can attend school during the winter months only.
The Classical Course is intended to prepare students for entering the freshman year of any of our best classical institutions. While this object is a primary one, and has served as a basis for the selection and arrangement of its studies, still the course is complete in itself. It furnishes an amount of Latin and Greek sufficient for ordinary philological purposes, and of great practical utility in the study and application of the sciences, as well as in the study and pursuit of the higher professions.

Prior to 1880, efforts were made to secure from the Legislature an appropriation with which to purchase suitable grounds and to erect a build- ing for university purposes. The effort was partially successful, and the sum of $20,000 was appropriated for the object named. This amount being scarcely more than sufficient to purchase the necessary grounds, an appeal was made to the Municipal Council of Salt Lake City for aid in this direction. The result was a generous donation to the institu- tion for university purposes, of the finest public square in the city. The appropriation from the Legislature, or the greater part of it, was immediately expended towards the erection of the new building, which it raised to the height of the basement story. It was confidently expected that an amount sufficient to complete the building would be appropriated by the Legislature at its next session, in 1882, but a bill for that purpose failed to receive the Governor's approval. The officers of the institution were thus left without means to continue the work begun. In view of the facts that the school was suffering through the want of sufficient room to accom- modate its students and to carry on its work of instruction, and that the unfinished building was in danger of waste and destruction through exposure and want of care, and that the entire grounds donated conditionally by the city, together with the work done upon the building, were liable to forfeiture, they determined to make an effort to raise means to relieve these unfortunate conditions. In this effort they were successful. By loans and voluntary contributions from citizens, a sufficient amount was raised to erect the entire walls and roof the building in, and even to prepare two rooms in it to accommodate a large class of students during the winter just passed. It was again hopefully expected that the Legislative appropriation would come to the relief of the institution in 1884, and not only re-imburse those citizens who had so generously contributed to aid the institution, but pro- vide a sufficient fund to complete the structure. Executive disapproval, how- ever, of a bill for that purpose has again left the school without that much- needed support. Nevertheless, the chancellor and regents have decided to go on with the work of constructing the building and to look for a material endorsement of their course from those who favor liberal education and free institutions. The new building, therefore, will be occupied by the school at the beginning of the academic year of 1884-5, though not more than a sufficient number of rooms for this purpose will be completed.
The attendance at one time last year was 290, and it is steadily growing. The new structure, a cut of which is here given, will accommodate a larger number, and provision for additional room was necessary in view of the rapid increase made yearly in the attendance. Following are the chancellor and board of regents:

DEAF-MUTES.
At the last session of the Utah Legislature an appropriation was made to the University of Deseret to assist in establishing in connection with the
291
UTAH GAZETTEER.
Institution a department for the reception of students on August 18, 1884. It cannot yet be definitely announced to what extent instruction and train- ing will be carried in the department. The provision to be made in this respect will depend upon the probable patronage the school will receive at the commencement of, or during the year, of which nothing is yet definitely known. It is quite probable, however, that two classes will be organized, one of children, say those under fourteen years of age, who have had but little or no instruction of any kind; the other, of those over fourteen years of age, who have acquired some facility in communication and who may have some knowledge of the common branches of study. It is hardly probable that at present or during the first year, instruction will extend beyond training the pupils in methods of ready communication, and giving them some knowledge of the elementary branches of study as taught in the common school, that is, reading, spelling, writing, arithmetic, geography, and grammar. Parents or guardians of deaf-mutes and others interested in behalf of any of this class of persons, who wish to avail themselves of this provision in the University in behalf of their wards or friends, should com- municate with the President of the University at once, giving the name, age, and sex of the deaf-mute, and stating whether or not he or she has received any education, and if so, to what extent, and such other informa- tion as may seem important. The Institution provides only instruction for the pupils, so that the parent or guardian must see that they have suitable boarding places and other necessary facilities while attending the school. It is proposed, however, to establish a boarding place or home for the pupils of this department to be under the strict surveillance, if not control, of the officers of the University, and to have the teachers of the deaf-mute classes also live there with their pupils. This arrangement, if effected, will be of great advantage to the pupils, since they will be under the constant care and tuition of their teachers, and so be secure, in a great measure, from any evil influence that it might not be in the power of the University otherwise to prevent. This plan carried out will also avoid the inconvenience that must be incident to a mute associated with those with whom he can have little or no communication; and, at the same time, it will no doubt, considerably reduce the ordinary cost of board. However, before any definite steps can be taken in this direction by the officers of the University, they must know how many will probably avail themselves of the arrangement if made. The President of the Institution, therefore, should be advised at once on this point. It will be understood now, from what has been said, that this provision in the University for deaf-mutes is not for an asylum to support the unfor- tunates, nor to furnish them medical treatment, but is for a school for their instruction only. Candidates for admission into the department should be of ordinary intelligence and constitutional vigor, as no one will be received who is imbecile or idiotic, or affected with any offensive or contagious disease.
The University building is 130 feet in length, 100 feet in width; height, to top of highest tower 96 feet, to top of small towers 76 feet.

DISTRICT SCHOOLS.
The machinery by which the District School system is operated in Utah provides for the election of a Territorial Superintendent of District Schools, for a Superintendent of the District Schools in each county, and for three Trustees for each district. The Territorial and County Superintendents are elected biennially, while there is an election each year for one Trustee, whose term of office is three years. The duty of the Territorial Superinten- dent is to visit the schools, receive reports, and make the distribution of the money collected by taxation for District School purposes. The County Superintendents have supervision in the counties, as the Superintendent has of the Territory, while the Trustees control school matters in their districts. They employ teachers, make the rate of tuition, take charge of the building, improving and management of the schoolhouses, provide furniture and appliances, and upon a two-thirds majority vote of the property owners of the district, they may levy a tax not to exceed 2 per cent. for building or other purposes immediately connected with the improvement of school property. In the absence of any means by which the land-provided for by the United States to be held and ultimately devoted to popular school purposes-can be utilized, a Territorial tax of 3 mills on the dollar is assessed, to be distributed among the various districts according to the attendance of children at each district during the school year. This 3 mills on the dollar is collected with the Territorial tax, and amounts to about $90,000 per annum, which is devoted to the assistance of common schools. Its effect is to reduce the cost of tuition, as the propor- tion of the tax given to each district goes to defraying the cost of securing teachers. This tax is uniform; and the distribution is always proportionate to the attendance at school of children whose ages are prescribed by the law. In several of the counties the money received from the Territory for school purposes exceeds the amount these counties pay into the fund. This may arise from one or all of three causes. The poverty of the county, or the number of children, or the low assessment. In Sanpete County the amount received from the Territory for school purposes exceeds the sum that county pays in for both school and Territorial purposes-6 mills on the dollar for the two- yet Sanpete is an unusually prosperous county. It shows that while the tax is uniform, the assessment is anything but uniform. In 1883 there were 318 school districts in the Territory, with 41r district schools; of these, III were primary schools, 60 were intermediate and 240 mixed; 246 male teachers were employed, 245 females, total 667. The attendance of school children between the ages of six and eighteen years was 45,908-23,355 boys and 22,553 girls. The percentage of the school population enrolled was 62.5; average daily attendance, 17,787; average number of terms taught, 272 ; average number of days on which school has been taught, 130. The average monthly pay of male teachers is $46.80; of female teachers, $28.3[. The value of district school property in the Territory, including land, build- ings, furniture and apparatus is $408,728. The appended table shows the attendance in each county, the appropriation to each county, and the amount of school tax paid by each county for the year 1883:

IMMIGRATION.
IMMIGRATION to Utah has been carried on systematically for the last forty-three years. The result has been not only to add largely to the indus- trial population of Utah, but to assist materially in the development of adjacent States and Territories. The Perpetual Emigrating Fund Company- organized and operated by Territorial enactment-has been the instrument by which a large number of immigrants have been brought to Utah. Thousands, however, have paid their own way, taking advantage only of the opportunities which association with the Perpetual Emigrating Company
offered in system and arrangement and cheap fares. Thousands also have been helped by friends and private parties, who have sent money from Utah to assist persons in foreign countries to the United States. The "Mormon" immigration-so-called-ha's not been confined solely to the Latter-day Saints. Yearly reports show that persons not of the faith do emigrate from foreign nations under Latter-day Saints' emigration organizations, and find it safer and more profitable to do so. The statistics given below shows that in the last forty-three years the Church immigration has helped to the United States from foreign countries, 78,225. From this number, admitting they all came to Utah, there must have been a large natural increase in the pop- ulation; and yet the population statistics shows that, of the inhabitants of Utah to-day 54,615 only are foreigners. The difference is to be accounted for by the fact that many who are emigrated do not stay in Utah. Some reported, never reached Utah, as they stopped on the way. Moreover, the 78, 225 does not show the total immigration through the instrumentality of the Mormon Church by a considerable number. The immigration to Utah from the United States, from Australia, from Islands in the Pacific Ocean is not included in this estimate. The figures show-while Utah is filled with a hardy and industrious agricultural population, to a considerable extent the result of immigration-that neighboring communities have been developed to a considerable extent through the same instrumentality and that the material interests of these adjacent commonwealths have been assisted by the col- onies planted in them and brought to Utah through the Mormon system of immigration.
Whatever may be said of the policy of bringing foreigners, those so far immigrated into Utah have been of vast benefit in developing inter-territorial resources, and, as a rule, are sober, industrious and thrifty. The following will show the immigration since 1848 up to and including 1883. There have been employed in this time to transport the immigrants 240 sailing and steam vessels.
