It includes a chronological list of the Masters of Arts, from the year 1587, and of the Doctors OF Divinity and Doctors of Laws, from about the be- ginning of the last century, being the earliest notices of any such degrees having been conferred. These Lists are con- tinued to the present time. A Catalogue of the Medical Graduates, from the year 1705, appeared as a separate volume in 184G. Tlie Book of Laureations, which has furnished the chief materials for the present volume, commences with the Na- tional Covenant of 1580, which long continued to be sub- scribed by the Professors and Students. In reference to this practice Professor Craufurd, in his History of the Uni- versity, has stated, " In the end of 1587, the Nationall Cove- nant was subscribed in the Colledge be Mr Rollock and Mr Name, Maisters of the same, and be Mr John Crage, the King's Minister (who had framed the draught thereof), and be Mr James Hamilton, jNlinister, who, during the banish- ment of Mr Lawson, and Mr Balcanquall, was brought in to preach in the citie. An ordinance was also passed, that all luho should take degrees in the Colledge, t^ould suh- scrt/he the saine." The same Author informs us that,—" In August 1587, Maister Robert Rollock did laureat the first classe which had passed under his charge in the Colledge of Edinburgh, after every one of them had subscribed the Cove- vnnt. They were to the number of 48 [47], among whom were many able wits, namely. Mr Charles Ferme. Mr Philip Heslope, Mr Henry Charteris, and Mr Patrick Sands, who were thereafter Regents, and the two last came to be Princi- pals of the CoUedge."^ It will ho observed, that other formulas were substituted at different periods, to which the signatures of the Graduates in Arts are continued in this Register, with some kind of regularity, until the latter part of the seventeenth century. At an early period, designations after many of the names have been added, probably by some of the Professors from their personal knowledge. These ad- ditions, which serve to identify various Students who had taken their degree, are printed in Italics. It had been customary, from the close of the sixteenth to the commencement of the last century, previous to the day of graduation, to print the TiiESE.s, which the Candidates for the degree of Master of Arts were called upon to defend in their public disputations. The names of the Students were annexed, along with that of the Regent or Professor, under whom they had completed their course of philosophical study. Of these annually printed Theses, about seventy have been discovered and collated ; and they have proved of essential service in regard to many names obscurely written in the Register, which could not otherwise have been easily de- ciphered. They also furnish several additional names ; but for the sake of distinction these are enclosed within brackets. In preparing the following Catalogue, other sources have also been carefully examined, such, for instance, as the Register for Matriculations, which commences in the year 1627 ; and likewise the various lists of contributors to the University Library. Such contributions, when not in the form of books on which the names of the respective donors were written, consisted of fees paid at the time of gradua- tion, which formed a separate fund for the purchase of books, in the name collectively of the graduates in each particular class. ^ II istorj- of the University of Edinburgh, from 15S0 to 16i5, by Thomas Craufuid, A.M. Edinb.. 1S08, 8vo. In the early part of the last century, partly arising from a change in the course of study, by the appointment of sepa- rate Professorships, the practice of taking degrees in Arts fell into general disuse. After the year 1730, when the minutes of the Senatk commence, the names of Graduates were frequently there recorded instead of the Laureation Book, but in general, for nearly a century, in an imperfect manner. Every endeavour has, however, been made to render the following Catalogue as complete and accurate as the ex- isting materials would admit. For the purpose of rendering this volume of greater im- portance, there is here subjoined a list of the Principals, Regents, and Professors, in the University, since its foun- dation in 1583 to the present time. This, for the most part, has been prepared from a careful examination of the Records of the Town Council of Edinburgh, the Patrons of the Uni- versity, as the most authentic source from which the dates of such appointments can be ascertained.

    la^A^' HISTORICAL NOTICES ST, ANTHONY'S MONASTERY, LEITH REHEARSAL OF EVENTS Which occurred in the North of Scotland from 1635 to 1645 in relation to the National Covenant. Edited from A Contemporary MS. REV. CHARLES ROGERS LL.D Historiographer to the Royal Historical Society ; Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries ofScotland ; Fellow ofthe Royal Society ofNorthern Antiquaries, Copenhagen ; Member of the Historical Society of Pennsylvania ; Member of the Historical Society of Quebec ; and Corresponding Member of the Historical and Genealogical Society of New England. LONDON PRINTED FOR THE GRAMPIAN CLUB 1877 fiiSTORicAL Notices, Sjc, The patriarch of monks, St. Anthony, is one of the most notable saints in the Romish calendar. He was born A.D. 251, at Coma, or Great Heracleopolis, in Upper Egypt. His parents, who were Christians, kept him at home, fearing that through bad example his manners might be tainted. When he was under twenty his parents died, leaving him and an only sister, as their inheritance, an estate, in extent equal to a hundred and twenty British acres.* Imperfectly instructed in sacred knowledge, Anthony was influenced by a strong religious enthusiasm. Inducing his sister to concur with him, he disposed of their inheritance, in the belief that he was thereby fulfilling the divine command. The money which he received for his land he distributed among the poor, and adopted the life of an ascetic. He did not eat before sunset, and often fasted for two and three days together. He subsisted on bread; salt and water, abstained from washing his body, and clothed himself in a coarse shirt of hair.

Reid Who were the ‘Aberdeen Doctors’, and what did they think? The first part of this question is easier to answer than the second.1 The ‘Doctors’ were a group of academics and ministers affiliated with King’s and Marischal College in the two decades following the accession of Bishop Patrick Forbes of Corse in 1619. They are best known for the series of tracts and pamphlets they exchanged in the summer of 1638 with the Covenanting ministers Alexander Henderson, David Dickson, and Andrew Cant, which denounced the National Covenant as seditious and theologically unsound.2 However, their attempts to sway national * This paper was drafted as part of the Leverhulme-funded International Network Project ‘Scottish philosophers in seventeenth-century Scotland and France’, which was active from 2010 to 2014.
