Particulars of the foregoing subjects of examination will be found in the Calendar of the University of London, under the head of “Regulations—Matriculation.” The special Latin and Greek subjects for January, 1887, are Cicero, De Senectute and Pro Lege Manilia; and Homer, Iliad, Book XVI.

The scholarship will be considered as commencing from the 1st July, 1887, but the first quarterly instalment will be paid to the successful candidate in the first week of October, 1887, at which time he will be expected to present himself to the Secretary of the Gilchrist Trust in London. Subsequent payments will depend on attendance at three courses of lectures in every session, and on good conduct; and the scholar must present himself for the first examination in one of the Faculties of the University of London before the end of the second year of the currency of his scholarship.

Every candidate will be required to give satisfactory evidence that he is between the ages of sixteen and twenty-two years, and either that he is a native of New Zealand, or that he has resided in New Zealand for the last five years.

Notice of entry, with satisfactory testimonials as to personal character, and the London matriculation fee of £2, must be sent to the Secretary for Education, Wellington, so as to reach his office not later than the 1st January, 1887.

By order.
Wm. Jas. HABENS,
