LAWS AND REGULATIONS.

1. Every Student intending to study for the ministry of the Church of Scotland must produce to the Professor of Divinity a certificate from the minister of the parish in which he has his usual residence-or in his absence, or during a vacancy in said parish, from some neighbouring minister-bearing that his character is suitable to his views; together with a certificate from the Examining Committee of the Church, stating that he has passed the examination prescribed by Act of Assembly 1873, which substituted an examination by a Synodal Committee in room of the former examination by Presbyteries, in the case of Students entering the Divinity Hall for the first time. In order to be enrolled for subsequent years, the Student is required to produce two certificates - viz., one from the minister of his parish of his good character and communion with the Church; and the other from the Presbytery within whose bounds he has chiefly resided during the previous twelve months-stating that he has passed the examination required to be undergone by Students of Divinity before entering the Divinity Hall for the second or third Session, as the case may be.

2. Every Student must be enrolled for at least three Sessions, which must be Sessions of regular or constant attendance.

Every Student must also give regular attendance, during at least two full Sessions, on the classes of Divinity, Church History, Hebrew, and Biblical Criticism. Every Student is required to deliver with approbation six discourses-viz., an essay on some subject in Biblical Theology, a homily in English, a critical exercise on some portion of the original text of the Old Testament, an exercise and addition on some portion of the original text of the New Testament, a lecture on some portion of Scripture, and a popular sermon. It is expected that every Student will deliver his first discourse during his second Session at the latest, and the remainder of his discourses at such periods as may enable him to deliver the whole of them before the end of January of the last Session of his course. The Primarius Professor of Divinity prescribes and hears the lecture and sermon, the Professor of Divinity and Church History hears the homily, and the Professor of Divinity and Biblical Criticism the critical exercise on a portion of the New Testament and the essay in Biblical Theology, and the Professor of Hebrew the critical exercise on a portion of the Old Testament.

3. The Principal and Masters require the Students in Divinity to be regular in attending the prelections of their Teachers, and the exhibitions of their fellow-students.

4. They require that if a Student shall on any occasion be necessarily detained from a class, he shall satisfy the Master by whom it is taught that his absence has been unavoidable; and that no Student shall be absent from any other part of his duty without the leave of the Principal.

5. They wish it to be particularly understood by every Student holding a Bursary, that irregular attendance in any of the classes, or on any part of his duty, besides all other consequences, must be necessarily followed by the forfeiture of his claim to the emoluments of his Bursary; and that every Student shall, at the commencement of every Session, present to the Principal and each of the Masters a certificate of correct deportment during the summer, from the minister of the parish in which he may then have resided.

6. They enjoin Students to attend public worship with regularity.

7. They appoint that prayers, accompanied with reading a portion of Scripture and singing psalms, shall be performed, with becoming solemnity, every morning in the Hall-the Students officiating in rotation.

8. The Principal and Masters enjoin the Students to shun even the appearance of evil; to discover, by their attention to their studies, and by the general style of their manners, that they have
