The attention of the Committee was first directed to the actual condition of the School, and its advantages as a place of legal education. Here there was occasion for lively satisfaction. The number of students was one hundred, assembled from all parts of the Union, and constituting a representation of the Whole country. Their attendance upon the lectures and other exercises, though entirely voluntary, had been full and regular; While their industry, good con duct, and intelligent reception of instruction, had been a source of peculiar pleasure to their professors.
