214 TO THE MEMBERS OF THE SENATE OF' THE UNIVERSITY OF CAMI 3 JUDGE. Gentlemen, HER Alojesty baring been pleased to c on f er upon me the office of Secretary of State for the Home Department, a vacancy has occurred in the representation of au: University. In offering myself as a Candidate to fill up that vacancy, I Lope I have done nothing to destroy the confilence hitherto reposed in me, either by the acceptance of the high situation to which I have referred, or by the conduct which I have felt it my duty to pursue in Parliament. Had I consulted my own personal wishes, I should infinitely have preferred to do my hest to serve the University in the House of Commons as an unofficial and independent Member ; but since I was constrained, on grounds already made known to the public, to join in a vote which has had the ettect of dig• placing one Government, I should not have been justified in refusing my assistance—such assistance as I could honestly give —towards the formation and support of another. As soon as the duties necessarily incident to the assumption of office will enable me to pay my respects to you in person, I hope to have the honour and pleasure of doing so. In the meantime permit me to solicit the kind favour of your continued support ; and believe me always, with heartfelt gratitude and sincere respect, Your faithful and obedient, humble Servant, 9, Grafton-street, Feb. 26, :858.

ONLY ONE IN FIVE OF THE CHILDREN OF OUR TROOPS IN INDIA LIVES TO BE FIVE YEARS OLD, so fatal is the climate of the plains, in which for the most part the barracks are situated. Those who grow up are marked by sickly frames and impaired constitutions. The moral contamination of the Indian barrack yards, especially to the DAUGHTERS of the private soldier, produces yet sadder results. To remedy these appalling evils, the late Sir Henry Lawrence founded a School and Asylum for 700 Soldiers' Children at Kussowlie, on the Himalayas, and a similar institution, of smaller dimensions, at Mount Aboo. These Schools are open to Children of the men of Queen's or Company's European regiments who at any time have served in India• without distinction. lln each school the children are wholly maintained from the age of three years till sixteen, and receive a solid, practical, and religious education. Destitute orphans of soldiers are, in every case, provided for in I:fe. The expenses of the Lawrence Asylum at Kussowlie exceed 5.0001. a year ; the cost of the Aboo Si.huol is less in propo.tion. The Government of India will henceforth contribute 2,00 W. annually; leaving an income of 0,000/. a year to be supplied by private subscription. The death of the munificent founder, and the disasters which have befallen our countrymen in India, necessitate an appeal to the gratitude and bounty of England. The Committee have resolved to raise 24,0001. in the first Instance, as a permanent endowment fund. Amount already advertised, 2,3621. 3s. 4d. Further contributions received or promised. Lieut.• Gen.
