OUR CHRONICLE.

Lent Term 1895.

The Seatonian Prize, for an English sacred poem on The Broad and Narrow Way, has been gained by the Rev G. E. Freeman. This is the fourth time that Mr Freeman has been successful.

The Sedgwick Prize has been adjudged to Mr Henry Woods. The subject of his essay was "The Gault and Cambridge Greensand, and their relation to the Red Rock of Hunstanton." The Prize was first awarded to Mr J. J. Harris Teall (1874), and on the next occasion to Mr A. J. Jukes-Browne (1877), both Johuians; in 1880 Mr Keeping, of Christ's, was successful, but since that year the Prize has gone to St John's without a break, having been won successively by Messrs Marr, Roberts, Harker, and Seward. The College appears to great advantage in recent geological distinctions. Mr P. Lake has recently received a grant of £50 from the Worts Travelling Scholars' Fund towards the expenses of a journey in Russia and Sweden, for the purpose of researches on the distribution of Trilobites. In the Geological Society of London, a grant from the Wollaston Fund has been made to Mr A. C. Seward. Mr W. H. Huddleston F.R.S. is Vice-President of the Society; and Mr J. E. Marr F.R.S. and Mr J. J. Harris Teall F.R.S. have been elected Secretaries for the ensuing year.

Ds J. A. Nicklin (B.A. 1894) has this term been awarded the Members' Prize for an English essay. The subject was "A criticism on the works of W. M. Thackeray."

A. J. Chotzner, Scholar, and an Editor of the Eagle, has gained Sir William Browne's Medal for a Latin Epigram. The successful epigram, together with a translation, will be found on page 461 of this number.

Before the usual Lent Term Guest dinner on February 5, Dr MacAlister offered to the College on behalf of Mrs Adams a fine marble bust of the late Professor John Couch Adams. In asking the President to accept it for the College, he spoke of

the veneration in which Professor Adams' name is held by all good Johnians, and said that it was but right that in the College, where so much of his early work was done, a permanent memorial of him should find a place. The bust was not only a faithful representation of the great astronomer's features; it was also an art-treasure of which the College might well be proud. The President accepted the munificent gift of Mrs Adams, and spoke warmly of the artistic beauty of the sculpture, for which they were indebted to the skilful chisel of Mr Albert Bruce-Joy. The sculptor was present as a guest, and to him the President offered the cordial acknowledgements of the College for the manner in which he had overcome the difficulties of his task.

The bust represents Professor Adams as he appeared in the later years of his life, and, seen in a good light and from the proper point of view, it suggests well the fine head and keen glance of our late distinguished Honorary Fellow. It has been placed on a carved bracket, also the gift of Mrs Adams, in the oriel window of the hall, opposite the bust of our other famous astronomer, Sir John Herschel.

Mr Bruce-Joy has nearly finished the large marble medallion of Professor Adams, which is to be placed on the side of Newton's tomb in Westminster Abbey, and this will shortly be set up as the national memorial of the English discoverer of Neptune.

Our readers will remember that in our last number (p. 397) we spoke of Dr Garrett having celebrated the jubilee of his musical career. We did not point out at the time that a movement was then on foot for marking the general appreciation of this event in a practical manner. This movement, we are glad to be able to say, not only took a definite shape, but has since been brought to a most successful issue. A Testimonial, very largely subscribed to not only in Cambridge itself but generally throughout England, was purchased, and on Monday afternoon, January 28, was presented in the Combination Room by the Vice Chancellor, in the presence of a large and influential gathering of Dr Garrett's friends and former pupils. It consisted of a silver tea and coffee service, a salver with a suitable inscription, and a set of Musical Doctor's robes. The speeches of the Vice-Chancellor, the Master of Trinity, Dr Donald MacAlister, Dr Alan Gray, and Mr Sedley Taylor were all in the happiest of veins, and bore eloquent testimony to the services Dr Garrett has rendered in the cause of Ecclesiastical Music. Dr Garrett, in an epigrammatic speech, expressed himself as delighted with the honour conferred upon him. We can heartily endorse the remarks of Prof Niecks, of Edinburgh, who, in a letter read on the occasion, said "I hope Dr Garrett may have another fifty years before him."

Mr W. C. Summers, Fellow, has been appointed Classical Tutor of Ayerst's Hostel.
