UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS.

I t is gratifying that we can point to so large a number of worthy specimens wrought by our students in clay, in chalk, and in colors; and it is a pleasant thought that the future of industrial and fine arts in this country has never been more hopeful than at present both from an educational and commercial standpoint. The people of the State of Illinois have indeed reason to be grateful to the Board of Trustees for the fostering care bestowed upon this department.
