SESSIONS.

There is but one session in the Seminary year. The year
commences on the third Monday in September, and ends with
the second Thursday in May.

ADMISSIONS

The regular time for admission to the Seminary is in Septem-
ber. It is very desirable that all Students should be present at
the commencement of the year, particularly those entering the
Junior Class.

The Seminary is open to Students of every denomination.
Candidates for admission must furnish the Faculty with satis-
factory testimonials, from enlightened and pious persons, of
their talents, piety and prudence, of having been regularly
educated at some College or University, or of having made
attainments deemed equivalent, and of being in full com-
munion with some Christian Church. Such persons, on assent-
ing to the Constitution of the Seminary, are admitted to the
enjoyment of all its privileges.

24 CATALOGUE.

COURSE OF STUDIES.

The course of Study embraces a period of three years, and
covers the several departments of Theological education,

I. BIBLICAL LITERATURE.

1. The Grammar of the Hebrew and Chaldee Languages and
the Grammatical and Exegetical study of the Hebrew and
Chaldee Scriptures. Yarious portions of the Historical,
Poetical and Prophetic Books are read, together with the
Chaldee parts of Ezra and Daniel. Translation of por-
tions of the New Testament into Hebrew.

2. The Exegetical study of the New Testament in Greek.
The Harmony of the four Gospels, the Epistles, the
Apocalypse of John.

3. Biblical Antiquities, Sacred Geography, the Principles of
Interpretation, Biblical Criticism, Introduction to the Old
and New Testaments.

4. Lectures on the Canon of the Old and New Testaments,
on Interpretation, on Biblical Criticism, on the Languages
of the Original Scrip tures, and on Prophecy.

The studies in this department occupy six days in each week
in the Junior year. In the Middle and Senior years there are
Exegetical exercises three days in the week.

The Syriac and Arabic Languages are taught to such Stu-
dents as desire it. The Seminary presents advantages very
rare, if not unequalled, in this country, for the prosecution of
Oriental Studies. One of its instructors, whose vernacular is
the Arabic, and who is minutely and critically skilled in He-
brew and the cognate dialects, who speaks and writes them
with fluency and ease, has a choice collection of Oriental' works ;
the Library of the South Carolina College is particularly rich in

CATALOGUE. 25

them, and the Library of the Serninaiy is as well furnished
with them as most of the public Libraries of the country. The
drilling in the Hebrew language is very thorough. Students
are practised in writing it, as well as in reading it.

II. CHKISTIAN THEOLOGY.

The department of Theology is taught partly by text-books,
and partly by lectures. The text-books used are :

Paley's Evidences of Christianity, and Calvin's Institutes.
The first is studied in the Junior, and the last in the Middle
and Senior years. The lectures to the Junior Class are on
Miracles, Inspiration and the Internal Evidences of Christianity.
Those to the Senior embrace an introductory view of Moral
and Metaphysical Philosophy, and a complete course on Sys-
tematic Theology. The students in all the classes are required
to write dissertations on subjects assigned them by the Pro-
fessor. In addition to their studies in the Seminary, they are
required to prepare, in their vacations, either an analysis of
some standard work, such as Edwards on the Will, Luther de
Servo Arbitrio, or elaborate compositions upon some particular
topic.

III. ECCLESIASTICAL HISTOEY AND CHUPCH
POLITY.

The teaching of these branches is partly by lectures and
partly by text-books.

1. The Junior Class is occupied one day of every week with
the first part of Church History, extending down to the
setting up of the Christian Church. The text-book is
Kurtz's Manual of Sacred History.

2. The Middle Class give their attention two days every
week to the second part of Church History, extending
from the times of the Apostles to the Eighteenth Century.
The text-book is Mosheim's Ecclesiastical History the
Professor constantly supplementing the text-book with
written lectures.

26 CATALOGUE.

3. The third year is devoted to Church Polity. The text-
book is Book IV. of Calvin's Institutes ; the Professor
meets the Class twice every week, either for a Lecture or
for examination on the text-book. Particular attention is
given to the exposition of our Form of Government and
Book of Discipline.

IY. SACEED EHETOEIC.

1. Eecitations in Campbell's Philosophy of Ehetoric and
Porter's Homiletics.

2. Exercises in public speaking, consisting of Original
Declamations, Delivery of Sermons, and Forensic De-
bates, accompanied with free criticism.

3. The public and private criticism of Sermons and Skeletons.

4. Dissertations, Essays and Critiques, prepared by the Senior
Class, on various subjects in the department of Sacred
Ehetoric.

Tuesday evening is appropriated to Ehetorical Exercises,
including Debates, Declamation and the Delivery of Sermons.

Y. NATUEAL SCIENCE IN CONNECTION WITH
EEYEALED EELIGION.

According to the Constitution, " the instructions in this
department are to be given exclusively by Lectures and exami-
nations." During the present year, the Professor meets the
Senior Class twice a week. Provision will be made hereafter
for fuller instruction in this department.

Instruction may be obtained in the city in the French, Ger-
man, Italian and Spanish languages.

CATALOGUE. 27

PROFESSORS' CONFERENCE.

Friday evening is occupied by the Professors in familiar
conference before the Students, upon personal piety, the best
plan and method of study, and the practical duties of the Pas-
toral Office.

BUILDINGS.

These are neat and commodious. The Central Building is
devoted to the Library and other public purposes. Law Hall
and Simons Hall were planned especially for the comfort of the
Students, are lighted with gas, and supplied with the most
necessary articles of furniture.

LIBRARY.

The extensive and choice Library of Rev. Dr. Smyth, of
Charleston, has been added to the former Library of the Semi-
nary, and our whole collection now embraces 17,549 volumes,
besides the private Libraries of the Professors, containing
10,000 volumes more. The use of the College Library is also
extended, by courtesy, to the Instructors of the Seminary, a
collection of great value, and now amounting to 24,000 volumes.

The Society of Inquiry on Missions is in the posession of a
valuble Cabinet, and its Beading-Room is furnished with the most
important Periodicals, Foreign and Domestic.

EXPENSES.

The Board and Washing of a Student residing in the Seminary
amount to from eighty to one hundred dollars per annum. The
Institution is a charitable foundation, and no charge is made for
room-rent, tuition, or use of Library. Provision is also made
for the support of Students in indigent circumstances, $200
per annum being appropriated for this purpose, if so much is
required.

PERKINS PROFESSORSHIP.

A new Professorship has been founded in this Institution by
the liberality of Hon. John Perkins, of Mississippi, entitled
" The Perkins Professorship of Natural Science in connection
with Eevelation," the design of which is to evince the harmony
of Science .with the records of our faith, and to refute the
objections of infidel naturalists. For this purpose Judge Perkins
has given to the Seminary the sum of $40,000. He has also
given $10,000 to enlarge the foundation for the support of
indigent Students ; and has made the Directors of the Seminary
his almoners in another charity of $10,000, to enure to the relief
of Ministers who are superannuated or infirm, and to the
distressed families of those deceased ; a fund which he hopes
will be increased by the charities of others. The Students and
Ministers of Mississippi and Louisiana are to have the preference
in the enjoyment of these last charities.

The Seminary has received a legacy under the will of the late
John Bull, of South Carolina, which has been long contested
and is now decided in favor of the legatees. This legacy will
probably amount to temthousand dollars.

The Institution needs still further endowments to give it
complete efficiency. Among its most pressing wants are an
additional tenement for the Students, a new Chapel, and a
Library building.

SYNODICAL RELATIONS.

This Seminary stands now equally related to the three Synods
of South Carolina, Georgia and Alabama, and is under their
joint control.

FORM OF BEQUEST.

The Seminary is incorporated by the Legislature of South
Carolina, and the proper form of a bequest would be as follows :

"To the Board of Directors of the Theological Seminary of
the Synod of South Carolina and Georgia, to them and to their

CATALOGUE. 29

successors, I give and bequeath the sum of , (or, I devise

a certain parcel or tract of land, &c.,) to be applied by them to
the uses and benefit of said Seminary."

Testators will do well to have respect to the laws of the State
in which they reside. The State of South Carolina requires
that a last Will and Testament be signed by the testator in the
presence of three witnesses.

The Seminary is pleasantly situated in the thriving city of
Columbia a place remarkable for health, the Capital of the
State of South Carolina, the seat of its College and other pub-
lic Institutions, of easy access by railroads, which are connect-
ing it more and more with other portions of the South and
South- West, and making it easy of access from any part of
the United States.
