“6. No scholar to be admitted into the school under seven years of age, except such as are on the foundation, nor any to be admitted to receive maintenance from the funds who are above eighteen years. Each scholar to remain in school, if practicable, at least two years, but no scholar to receive pecuniary support beyond the period of seven years, nor above the age of twenty, unless for the pursuit of some study approved by the managers. “7. All the scholars are required to attend regularly every day, to abstain from all improper language in school, and to maintain a respectable moral character in society; without which no scholar can be admitted, or if admitted, be retained on his ill conduct being discovered. “8. The school to be open to all visitors every Tuesday, and all contributors to the funds to be admitted to inspect the accounts on the second Tuesday in every month. “It being intended to form a library and museum also connected with the school, as soon as practicable, any donation of natural curiosities, or of books, in English, or in any of the languages of India, (especially grammars, dictionaries, and books of history) will be thankfully received; and a book will be kept in which the names of donors will be recorded, with the nature and extent of the donation.” “Benares, 11th November, 1818.” At the time the foregoing statement was put into circulation, there were no less than one hundred and sixteen scholars in the school; but it had already become apparent that the monthly sum granted by the founder, was by no means sufficient to meet the necessary expenses of the establishment. Joy Narain therefore, made a formal application to the Governor-General in council for pecuniary assistance, when Lord Hastings, with the ready attention which he always manifested for the moral improvement of India, ordered a regular monthly allowance to be contributed from the funds of government toward the efficient maintenance of the school. But the residence of Mr. Corrie at Benares was now drawing to a close. He received about this time, an appointment to the vacant Chaplaincy at Cawnpore; but before he could proceed to that station, a vacancy had occurred at the Presidency by the departure of the senior chaplain on sick-leave. This event was the occasion of Mr. Corrie’s recall to Calcutta. He accordingly left Benares in December 1818, amid the regrets of a large body of respectable natives, who had seen so much reason for regarding him as the friend and promoter of every institution which was calculated to promote their welfare. It could not, therefore, but be a matter of gratification to him, to be followed to Calcutta by the subjoined Address written in English, Persian, Hindoostanee, and Bengalee:-- FROM THE INHABITANTS OF BENARES,
