THE University of Edinburgh confers Degrees in Arts, Divinity, Law, Medicine and Surgery, and Science. The Regulations for Graduation are briefly stated in the following pages, but they will probably soon be materially altered in several respects under the powers conferred by the " Universities (Scot- land) Act, 1889." This volume contains a complete Alphabetical List of the Graduates from 1859 to 1888, both years included. The various Degrees are indicated by their initial letters appended to the names of the Graduates. 1 Honorary Degrees.— The Degrees of Doctor of Divinity and Doctor of Laws are conferred honoris causa tantum. The Degree of Master of Arts was also conferred honoris causa tantum in a few cases previous to 30th April 1861, when it was enacted that the Degree in Arts should in no case be conferred except after due examination. All the other Degrees are conferred after Examination only. The following outlines of the curricula and Examinations for Degrees are not intended as a guide for the future, but refer only to the subjects of study and of examination during the period embraced in the Lists. Degrees in Arts. —The Degree of Bachelor of Arts was abolished by the Universities Commission in 1861. The course of study for this Degree extended over three academic years, and embraced attendance for one session on the classes of Latin, Greek, Mathematics, Logic and Metaphysics, and Moral Philosophy respectively ; and candidates for the Degree were required to pass an Examination in these five subjects. The present Regulations for Graduation in Arts were framed by the Scottish Universities Commission of 1858, and came into 1 A Catalogue of the Graduates in the Faculties of Arts, Divinity, and Law from the foundation of the University was published in 1S5S, and a List of the Graduates in Medicine was published in 1866. ; 6 Alphabetical List of Graduates. force at the beginning of the Winter Session 1861-62. It was, however, provided that any student who had completed part of his course at the time when the new Regulations came into force would be entitled to complete his course under the Regulations in force at the time, provided he passed the Examination or Examinations required under the new Regulations, Previously to 1861 the course of study for the Degree of Master of Arts extended over four academic years, and embraced attendance on the following classes, viz. : — Latin, Greek, Mathematics, Logic and Metaphysics, Moral Philosophy, Natural Philosophy, and Rhetoric ; and candidates for the Degree were required to pass an Examination in these seven subjects. The Degree of Master of Arts under the present Regulations may be taken with or without Honours. The course of study for the Degree extends over four Winter Sessions, and includes attendance for not less than two Sessions in Latin, Greek, and Mathematics respectively, and for not less than one session in Logic and Metaphysics, Moral Philosophy, Natural Philo- sophy, and Rhetoric and English Literature respectively. Two sessions of the course may be taken in another Scottish Univer- sity, provided the last two sessions be taken in this University. Candidates who pass the Three Years' Curriculum Examination in Latin and Greek, at the beginning of their course, are exempted from attendance on these subjects for a second session, and may complete their Curriculum in three Winter Sessions instead of four ; and those who pass the Entrance Examination in Mathematics, are exempted from a second attendance on that subject. Candidates for the Degree of M.A. are examined in three Departments, viz.:— Classical Literature (Latin and Greek), Philosophy (Logic and Metaphysics ; Moral Philosophy Rhetoric and English Literature), and Mathematics and Physics (Mathematics and Natural Philosophy) ; and they may appear for Examination in any Department or Departments when they have completed the necessary attendance on the classes. First and second class Honours are awarded in Classical Literature (Latin and Greek), Philosophy (Logic and Metaphysics, and Moral Philosophy), Mathematics and Physics (Pure Mathematics and Natural Philosophy) ; and Honours are awarded in Natural Introductory. 7 Science, viz.:— Geology, Zoology, Chemistry, and Botany, of which subjects candidates may select any two. Candidates may offer themselves for examination for Honours in any Department or Departments, after the necessary attendance, or they may offer themselves for further examination for Honours after they have passed the ordinary examinations for the Degree. Degree in Divinity. —The Degree of Bachelor of Divinity was instituted in 1864, and has always been regarded as an Honours Degree, the standard of examination being unusually high. Candidates must be Graduates in Arts of a University of the United Kingdom, or of a Colonial University recognised for that purpose, and must have completed their Theological Curriculum in this University or elsewhere. If not Masters of Arts of this University, they must have attended two classes in one or more of the Faculties of this University. The subjects of examination are arranged in two Depart- ments, the first embracing— (1) Hebrew and (2) Apologetic Theology, or the Evidences of Natural and Revealed Religion ; and the second Department embracing—(1) Ecclesiastical History, (2) Systematic Theology, and (3) Biblical Criticism and Biblical Antiquities. Degrees in Law. —Two Degrees in Law are conferred after examination, viz.:— Bachelor of Laws, instituted in 1863, and Bachelor of Law, instituted in 1874. The Degree of LL.B. has also been regarded, since its institution, as an Honours Degree, the standard of examination being unusually high. Special distinction in the Law Examinations was instituted in 1885. Candidates for the Degree of LL.B. must be graduates in Arts of a University of the United Kingdom or of a Colonial or Foreign University specially recognised for the purpose. The course of legal study extends over three academic years (two of which must be passed in this University), and includes attendance on a distinct course in each of the six following Departments, viz. : — Civil Law, Law of Scotland, Conveyancing (cr, in the option of the Candidate, Political Economy), during Courses of not less than Eighty Lectures each ; and Public Law, Constitutional Law and History, and Medical Jurispru- dence, during courses of not less than Forty Lectures each. The examination for the Degree embraces these six subjects. S Alphabetical List of Graduates. Candidates for the Degree of Bachelor of Law, if not Graduates in Arts, must have studied one or more of the subjects included in the course of study in the Faculty of Arts, during one academic year, in a University of the United Kingdom, or in a Colonial or Foreign University recognised for the purpose ; and they must have passed a satisfactory examination in (i) Latin, (2) Greek, French, or German, and (3) any two of the following subjects—namely, Logic, Moral Philosophy, and Mathematics. The course of legal study extends over at least two academic years, and includes attendance on a Course in Civil Law, Scots Law, and Conveyancing, and in either Public Law, Constitutional Law and History, or Medical Jurisprudence. Two academic years of legal study must be passed in this University. Degrees in Medicine and Surgery. —The present Regulations for Graduation in Medicine and Surgery were framed by the Scottish Universities Commission of 1858, and came into operation on 4th February 1861 ; but several altera- tions have been made from time to time by the University Authorities. Previously to the date mentioned this University conferred the Degree of Doctor of Medicine only. Candidates for that Degree were required to pass a Preliminary Examination in Latin.

THE "SETON-GORDONS " Of the cadet branches of the family of Seton by- far the most Important, and the largest, is that which, only two generations after its emergence from the parent stem, dropped the patronymic and. assumed the surname of the heiress of Gordon. In so far as the history of Scotland is concerned, this family of "Seton-Gordons", i.e. the Gordons who originated from the Setons, was a more consistently im- portant factor in the affairs of State than the main line, from the early 15th Century onwards. To their undoubted success many factors contribu- ted. When Alexander de Seton, second son of Sir William de Seton, married in 1408 Elizabeth de Gordon he became through her, and her maternal relations, the .possessor of large properties. He found himself at once in the position of one of the great land owners in the North; and he and his successors were particularly skilful in "birsing yorifj;" their boundaries.

It lists former Fellows from the foundation of the Society in 1783 to October 2002. Most are deceased Fellows up to and including the list given in the RSE Directory 2003 (Session 2002-3) but some former Fellows who left the Society by resignation or were removed from the roll are still living. HISTORY OF THE PROJECT Information on the Fellowship has been kept by the Society in many ways – unpublished sources include Council and Committee Minutes, Card Indices, and correspondence; published sources such as Transactions, Proceedings, Year Books, Billets, Candidates Lists, etc. All have been examined by the compilers, who have found the Minutes, particularly Committee Minutes, to be of variable quality, and it is to be regretted that the Society’s holdings of published billets and candidates lists are incomplete. The late Professor Neil Campbell prepared from these sources a loose-leaf list of some 1500 Ordinary Fellows elected during the Society’s first hundred years. He listed name and forenames, title where applicable and national honours, profession or discipline, position held, some information on membership of the other societies, dates of birth, election to the Society and death or resignation from the Society and reference to a printed biography.

RECOMMENDATORY PREFACE. THE Doctrine of the Atonement stands invested with a character of stupendous interest. Circumstances have tended to direct particular attention of late years to this subject, more especially to the question of the extent of the atonement, -meaning by this, its extent, not in respect of intrinsic worth, but of relative desti nation. The sentiment that the atonement of Christ is, in this latter aspect, universal, which was long re garded as a branch of Arminianism, has found favour in the eyes of some who profess a Calvinistic creed, in consequence, it is alleged, of its being understood to furnish a better basis on which to rest the unlimited offer of the gospel to sinners. This conclusion, we are fully persuaded, is without any solid foundation. The matter has given rise to much discussion. In spite, however, of the keenness with which the controversy has been carried on, attempts have been made to repre sent the point in dispute as a matter of comparative insignificance,—as one, indeed, of those nice specula tive questions on which it may be well enough for professed theologians to sharpen their dialectical powers, but which have no practical bearing, and are consequently of no sort of interest to the great body of private Christians.

PREFATORY NOTE. This volume completes the Index to this Commissariot, so far as it is proposed by the Society to print the same. It includes all Testaments recorded before 31st December 1800. The remainder of the Record down to 31st December 1829 is in the General Register House, but from that date to the present day it will be found at the Commissary Office. The Register for the Eighteenth Century shows a considerable falling away in the number of Testaments recorded, due to some extent to the Local Registers being more taken advantage of On the other hand, a number of Testaments of Scotsmen dying in England, the Colonies, and abroad are to be found. The Register for the years following on the Union of the Parliaments is one of melancholy interest, containing as it does, to a certain extent, the death-roll of the ill-fated Darien Expedition.
