College of Physical Science, Newcastle-on-Tyne. 6, Old Palace Yard, London, S.W. Sir, July 6, 1874. I AM directed to ask you to be so good as to sujJiDly for the information of the Commissioners (in addition to the information which you have ah-eady been good enough to furnish respecting the College of Physical Science, at Ne\vcastle-on-Tyne); (i.), a financial statement, showing the amount received towards establishing and endowing the College, and how the amount has been expended or invested; and (ii.), the annual receipts and expenditure, indicating the salary paid to each professor. I have, &c. The Secretary, J. Norman Lockyer. College of Physical Science, Newcastle-oD-Tyne. College of Physical Science, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Dear Sir, July 11th, 1874. In reply to your inquiries of the 6th inst., I beg to inform you that the total amount of donations jiromised to the College was 23,147/., and of this sum 19,560^. has been collected, the payments being extended over a term of six years. In addition to these donations the following annual subscriptions are received : three of lOOZ. each, one of 201., and one of lOl. The University of Durham makes an annual grant of 1,000/., besides some additional payments to extra teachers, &c. Rather more than 1,000Z. per annum is received for fees, about two thirds of which is paid over to the Professors, in addition to their stipends. About 15,500/. of the donations received > has been in- vested in railway and other stock, the balance having been applied in establishing and partly maintaining the College, which has been nearly three years in existence. The total annual expenditure of the College may be stated at 3,000/., and the receipts hitherto have nearly equalled that amount, a deficiency of only 250/. last year having been drawn from the capital account. It is expected, however, in future that the expenditure will not exceed the receipts. I am, &c. The Secretary of the Theo. Wood Bunning. Royal Commmission on Scientific Instruction.
