Sarta tecta tua præcepta usque habui mea modestia,
Mores leges perduxerunt jam in potestatem suam :
Eae misere etiam ad parietem sunt fixae clavis ferreis,
Ubi malos mores adfigi nimio fuerat aequius,
Cave sis tibi ne bubuli in te cottabi crebri crepent
Si aberis ab eri quaestione: ne destiteris currere.
Credo ego istuc, Stasime, ita esse: set Campans genus
Multo Surorum jam antidit patientiam.

Quis me improbior perhibeatur esse? haec famigeratio
Te honestet, me autem conlutitet, si sine dote duxeris.
Est minusculum alterum quasi vesculum vinarium.
Et postremo, nisi me auscultas atque hoc ut dico facis,
Tute pone te latebis facile, ne inveniat te honos.
Si istuc, ut conare et facis indicium, tuum incendes genus:
Tum igitur aquae erit tibi cupido, genus qui restinguas tuum.
Properas an non propere abire actutum ab his regionibus.
Nisi etiam laborem ad damnum adponam epithecam insuper.

15. DESCRIPTION AND VALUE OF COLLEGE GROUNDS, BUILDINGS AND MOVABLE PROPERTY.

The college grounds contain about forty acres of well-improved land, ornamented with trees, shrubs and flowers, and made accessible in every part by graveled walks and drives. Special attention is given by the curators of the grounds to their improvement, and it is a part of their plan to show specimens of every tree and shrub supposed to be hardy in the climate of Central New York. Already the collection contains over 200 varieties of deciduous trees, 60 of evergreens, and 120 of shrubs of this description, and the number is annually increas ing. A catalogue of these trees and shrubs will be found in the catalogues for the current and previous year.

The principal college buildings are as follows:

1. Three stone buildings, each four stories high, and forty-nine feet wide by ninety-eight long, for study, lodging and recitation rooms. The buildings are called Hungerford hall or South College, Kirkland hall or Middle College, and Dexter hall or North College. Hungerford hall has undergone a thorough repair, is modernized within and without, and has been in use since September, 1874. It is now known as "Hungerford Hall," in honor of Hon. John N. Hungerford of Corning, who gave to the college $10,000, to be expended in making these improvements.

2. A stone chapel three stories high and fifty-one feet wide by eighty-one feet long, with lecture and recitation rooms.

3. A boarding-house.

4. A hall for collections of mineralogy, geology and natural history. It is the intention soon to repair and greatly improve this hall. A new roof, with towers, new door-ways and windows, with a modern lecture-room and new furniture, and cases for the collections in natural history, are among the contemplated improvements; and, after its completion, the building will be known as "Knox Hall of Natural History," Hon. James Knox, formerly of Utica and more recently of Knoxville, Illinois, having given to the college $10,000 to make these improvements and aid in endowing the department. During the past year or two a cabinet of New York minerals, mainly from the northern part of the State, many of which are rare and of great value, and collected by Prof. Oren Root, has been added to these collections; and there has also been placed in the hall a very full and nearly complete collection of the birds found in Oneida county and Central New York.

These birds are well preserved and handsomely mounted, and embrace over two hundred different species; in many instances are found both the male and female with their eggs and nests, and arrangements have been made which will place in this collection a specimen of every bird which is found in this section of the State.

5. A gymnasium.

6. A chemical laboratory. This building, a few years since, was entirely remodeled and renovated, and furnished with a large amount of new and valuable fixtures and apparatus, under the direction of Prof. E. W. Root, the Childs Professor of Agricultural Chemistry; and since that time it has been further improved by Prof. Albert H. Chester, the present incumbent.

7. An astronomical observatory. This building has been thoroughly repaired in every part and in several respects much improved.

Recently an addition has been made to the observatory, containing working rooms and two revolving towers, in which new instruments have been mounted; and, among others, the excellent and well-tried instruments belonging to the United States Government, which were used by Dr. Peters, on the expedition to New Zealand in 1874, to observe the transit of Venus, and which the government has courteously permitted Dr. Peters temporarily to retain and use.

8. A library hall, which is completed and in use. The alumni and friends of the college in the West, have mainly furnished the funds for this building. It has cost $50,000, and, after the name of one of the principal donors, is called the Perry H. Smith Library Hall."

Two years since the rhetorical department of the library was increased by the addition of several hundred volumes of special value, which were the donation of several gentlemen interested in that department, and during the past year other donations and purchases have been added. Many volumes have also been added to the other departments of the library.

The memorial hall and art gallery, which occupies a part of the library hall, has been enriched by the additions of several new and valuable paintings and works of art.

9. A president's house, which, with the grounds attached thereto, recently purchased, has cost $25,000. The house is completed, and occupied by the president and his family.

Estimated value of real estate, libraries, natural history, and other collections and apparatus.
