The pri.oorr, it will be remernhered, war convicted under rather peculiar circumstances of throwing a .jaant‘ty of sulphuric acid in her loislsuarm face, by which act he was nearly blind.si, and received ether injuries of • serious character. It was stated ,t the time that the prosecutor did not desire that the poi. uer 41011141 be punished, his ..raja object in preferring the ..han4, against her was to Vanilla himself protection Joan similar acts of violen, in future.

FELLOWSHIPS Ar ALL SOUL.Y COLLEGE, oXFORD.-(rmis DAY.) - • - 'rids morning the hearing of thin cane , which i. one of considevable interest to the University of Osionl. conimenced at 11 o'clock, at Lambeth Palace, before the Archbishop of Canterbury, visitor of the College of All Nude, who was assisted by Lord Wensleydale and Dr. Travers Telma, vicar.general of the province, as assessors. The matter having excited peat attention throu;hout the university. was brought under the consideration of the court of queue's Bench on the 24th of November, 18.i0, when Mr. .1. D. Coleridge moved, on behalf of Mr. Arthur George Watson, B.C. L., Mr. W. H. Fremantle, M.A., and Mr. Godfrey Lushington, M.A., three of the fellows of All Mauls, fur a rule calling on the Archbishop of Canterbury, the visitor, to show cause why a mandamus should not issue commanding him to hear an appeal spinet certain proceedings of the warden and fellows of the college. Before the passing of the Oxford University Reform Act, the fellows of All Soule consisted of a number of gentlemen of rank and fortune, not having any duties to perform for the emoluments thee received. Under the powers of that act, however. the commissioners, in Michaele'. Term, isaa, framed au ordinance in relation to All Souls College which became, and now formed, the statute% of the college. It appeared that the college had Dever had any under. graduates, and, it being unfit for the residence of undergraduates, it was allowed to continue as before, emending only of fellows, who had no duties of teaching imposed upon them. It was, however, intended to make the college the means of emouraging the study of juin prudeuee and modern history, and the ordinance provided fur the appointment of two professors who were eligible to be elected fellows, and were to be called respectively " The Chicheley Professor of International Law and Diplurnac7," sal " The Chicheley Professor of Modern History." An. other section provided that " the intellectual qualifications of candidates for fellowships shall be tested by an examine. tides in such subjects, recognised in the school of juris• prudence and modern history within the university, as the warden and fellows shall determine ; and the warden and fellows shall elect that candidate (being otherwise duly qualified according to the statutes in force for the time being) who after such examination shall appear to them to be I of the greatest merit, and meet tit to be a fellowof the college, as a place of religion and learning, with special reference to the subjects recogniaol in the said school." The question in dispute arose on the construction of that section of the ordinance with reference to which the allege had passed byelaw., which Metre. Wetmore, Fremantle, and Lushing. toe considered an evasion of it, and that the exemination ought to be competitive. In the month of November, 111..7, an election of fellows took place, and the fellows who were present were bound to secrecy. Afterwards they protested against this, and asked leave to lay before the archbishop the whole of the circumstances connected with the election, but th'e was refused, and they then presented a petition to the archbishop praying him to hear sod decide the matters in dispute. They urged that the candidates were examined by the wardeu and a hosed of examiner., but that before the election their papers were burned, and that the general body of electors bad no adequate opportunity of seeing them. They further urged that the gentlemen then chosen were elected in opposites. to the terms of the ordinance. Hie grace, it seems, decided the points at issue without hearing the appellants, and the Court of queen's Bench granted a rule as prayed. When the matter again came before the court it was weal that the rule should be made absolute, him grace consenting formally to hear the appellants. At the hearing of the appeal this morning, the Attorney- General (Sr R. ) and Mr. Waidy all paered for the petitioners; while Sir H. Cairns, Mr. Bovi (IC., Mr. Kenyon, sod Mr. Granville Somerset represented the an thonties of the college. The Attorney.(;eueral opened the came very elaborately, and his speech bad not concluded when our report left. The case will probably occupy tee or three days. LONDON AND GREENWICH RAILWAY.

This was at a time when the circulating library was filled exclusively with fictions of the Minerva school, or with poetry such as Haylav wrote, There was no great temptation in that time of dearth to confine one's reading to the contemporary literature. But times are changed. The shelves of our great reading clubs and libraries are crowded with the novels of Thulium, Dickens, Lytton, Mete, Kingsley ; with the histories of Carlyle, Fronde, ltywanlay ; with the poetry of Tennyson and Ruskin; with the theology of - Maurice, Jowett, and Robertson, and with a host ol authorities on science and travel. Such a literature as this is more than sufficient for the time and capacity of an ordinary student, and we need not wonder that the number of readers who limit their reading to the publications of the twelvemonth should increase every day. Yet we may be sure that such a limitation has an ementially narrowing is. fiumice, and produces a very injurious effect on the mind. All the writers of an age, however diversified their styles, and however peculiar their mental habits, are ex rapport. They breathe the eame air , they handle the same topics, they are acted upon by the name influences. So that a critic can tell, not more from th e occurrence in their works of direct allusion to contemporary events, than from Nose trick of manner, Nome habit of thought, or same trait of feeling or character, whether an author belongs to the apt of Elizabeth, or of Charles, or of Anne, cr of the Omegas. Every generation has a " personality of it. own. Now the reader who reads the wntings of his contemporaries only cannot escape their influence. He bows slavishly to their authority ; their taste becomes his taste, their prejudices his prejudices. The intense pressure which writers who are near to us emcee upon our feelings and convictions requiem, if we should preserve intellectual manliness and moderation. to be staved off ; and this can only be done by making our selves acquainted with the modifications of taste and opinion which have obtained io different ages of literature. - - Fraser's difagazwic for January.

Two o'CLoct. The Bank of France have this day raiae.l their rate of discount to 7 per cent., being the same as that fixed yesterday by the Bank of England. The announcement baa contributed to precipi tate the fall in the funds. A fresh reduction of jj per cent. has taken place. There is, however, no sign of panic. All other classes of secu rities exhibit a reduction to a greater or leas extent. Lombardo-Venetian and Grand Trunk of Canada railway stocks have especially suffered. The decline in 'most of the principal British railway stocks does not exceed Ito per cent. At Paris this morning, acconling to Mr. Reuter's telegram, the Three per Cent. Rentea were quoted 66fr. 90c., showing a frrsh reduction of fto per cent. since yesterday. Consols are officially marked 914, 1 1, and 4, ex div., for money, and 91} and g for the account. The present quotation is 114 to g, ex div. for the 10th inst. Tie official business report is as follows : Thrae.,,per Cents. Reduced, 91g, 4, ; New Thu' o — e per Cents., 91g, 4, I, g ; India Five per Cant. Stock, for account, 101, 1004, ex div. ; ditto Bonds, 7a. dia. ; Exchequer Bills, 2s. prem., 2a. dia. _ . The transactions in the foreign stock market have been more numerous than of late, but in nearly every instance at lower prices. The Turkish Loan of 1858 has fallen about per cent, being quoted 55 to }, whilst that of 1854 is comparatively steady at 69/1 to 70. Sales are recorded as follows :—Brazilian Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 1852, 851 ; ditto Four and-a-Half par Ceuta., 1860, 83# ; Buenos Ayres Six per Cents., for account, 961 ; Mexican Three per Cents., for account, 21, 20/ ; Peruvian Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 96 ; Portuguese Three per Cents., 1856, 1857, and 1859, for account, 44, }, ex div. ; Russian Three per Cents., 1859, 601, 1 ; Sardinian Five per Cents., for account, 82; Spanish Three per Cents., 4 1 •1; ditto New Deferred Three per Cents., for account, 401, # ex div. ; the Committee's Certifs. ,51 ;Turkish Six per Cents. ,1854, for account, 691 ; ditto Six per Cents., 1858, for account, 56, 551; ditto 1001. Bonds, 57; ditto Guaranteed Four per Cents., 102/. TEN MINC110; PARE Two. Consols are now rather firmer, at 911 to 1, ex div., for the 10th inst. In most departments of business a feeling of discouragement and uneasiness is becoming more plainly observable. Considerable appre hension is felt as to the effect which may be produced, even in the present sound condition of trade, by the severe measures of restriction upon which the Bank of England have now fairly entered. It is seen that there is once more a struggle for bullion between the three greatest money markets in the world—those of England, France, and America ; and in face of the exorbi tant rates now current in the latter country, and of the undoubted necessities of the Bank of France, it is feared that further strong action will be re quired here before the end desired can be achieved. People look timidly forward, too, to the prospect of the pressure which usually arises in unsettled times under the stringent operation of the Bank Charter Act. The news from America is supposed to have had chief influence in the Bank parlour yesterday. The apprehended secession of South Carolina is now a fact. Should blood be spilt the strife may reach a degree of bitterness which may fling all calculations to the winds. This, however, is the worst possible view. The immediate finan cial feature of the American Rayless is, that the exchange at New York, which had risen to 106 under the effect of the receipt of the 620,0001. in specie by the Persia, had relapsed to 104 at the date of the latest accounts. There seems to be no prospect of any slackening of the drain from this side until accounts of a decidedly more favourable character come forward. The force of these ad verse considerations is but little mitigated by the circumstance that, owing to the slowness with which the process of re-coining goes on at the American Mints, the full effect of the English sup ply of gold upon the American circulation had not been felt. The prices of stocks and shares at New York have advanced, but the rise may be rather due to the large English orders to buy than to any real improvement in public opinion. Moreover, the several steamers which have just reached this country have brought a con siderable supply of American securities for sale here. Yesterday afternoon, iu consequence, these se curities experienced a falL It is of no avail for us to decline to recognise the fact that, as long as the value of money at New York remains at 12 per cent., and the exchange decidedly against us—as lung, in fact, as America can afford to bid much higher for capital than we can—it will continue to flow out in the form moat useful for her to receive and least convenient for us to part with. The commercial public, therefore, will do well to receive with calmness any action which the Bank of Eng land may consider requisite as a corrective. In the discount market yesterday there was an absence ms ofiressure. The rates in the afternoon were 7to 7 per cent. for good bills. At the Bank the d was moderate. In the Stock Exchange the rate for short loans on English government securities was 5 to 6 per cent. At Vienna, on Saturday, there was a recovery of 1 per cent. in the Austrian funds, and the ex change on London, which had reached 149, relapsed to 147.75. Yesterday was the first day for private transfers of Consols and the other government securities upon which the dividends are falling due. The regular re-opening of the books for Consols will take place on Friday, the 18th inst., and those for the T and-a-Half per Cents., Two-and-a-Half per Cents., New Five per Cent. nnuities, expiring in Jan., 1880, India Stock, and the India Five per Cent. Stock (1859), on Thursday, the 17th. The rise in the value of money here will of course give an impulseto the continental exchanges. The Paris exchange has already responded, coming quoted yesterday afternoon 25.20 to 22i, or about 3.16 per cent. higher than before our Bank moved. The Teuton* which sailed from Southampton yesterday for New York, took 70,000 i. in specie, making an aggregate of 2,243,000 f. since the 28th Nov. A further considerable amount will doubt less be taken by the steamers this week. These are the following, viz. :—The Marathon, to sail Jan. 8 ; City of Washington, Jan. 9 ; North Briton, Jan. 10 ; and the Niagara, Jan. 12. The remittances of specie by the Bombay packet of the 12th inst. are expected to present a consider able increase. It is said that 200,0001. of the silver bullion lately sent into the Bank of England has been sold for that quarter. The bar silver by the Mexican packet was sold yesterday for India at ss. 10. per ounce, showing a fall of id. compared with the price obtained for the previous supply. The Liverpool cotton market yesterday opened with an extensive demand, which was subse quently checked by the news of the rise in the Bank rate of discount. The sales of the day amounted to 10,000 bales. The South Eastern Railway traffic return shows this week an increase of 1141. 101EIGN lloo klairallaa Appord„ Molted.. Dras.Lop. Doa&U.pia.) Do.

The scarcity of stock on the Paris flour market has kept up muse, and 64f. to 671. per 157 kilo.. (equal to 41s. 4d. to 43e. Id. per Mibe. English) have been paid for the commie. tion of contracts. The consumptive inquiry has also gi yea a better tone to the trade in the four marks, which had brought as high as 641. 25c. per 157 kilos. (445. lid. per 2801b5.) Finally, however, the offers exceeded the de mand, and sales were made at 50c. to 75e. lees. There had been transactions in wheat as follows :-De Burgoyne, at 24f. 89e. (375. per qr.), weighing 76 kilos. (641bs. per bush.); new Contegne, at 82e. (5'..h. 3d. per qr.), weight 73 kilos. (58 per bush.); but though the market was 50c. to 75 0 . per ect. lower (9d. to Is. it per qr.), choice novels were still quoted 371. 25c. (575. 61 per qr.). New Bur sae. barley had sold at 131. 'Mc. (32a. per Ir weight 63 kilos. (501ba. per bushel) ; new oat. of the same cmintry, 7f. 94e. per hect. (18a. 3d.), weight 40 kilos. (321 be. per bush.) In comparing the weight of this last year's wheat, at Toulouse, there in a difference of 3 Wm M 2 gr., or nearly Ilb. per bush. in favour of the last harvest. The upward tendency of wheat prices in the country had ceased, and there was a decline en several Owes of 33c. to 50c. per beet. (94. to Is. lid. per qr.) At Nude', Pairoberuf wheat per 80 kilos., making each 641 be. per bush., was quoted 24f. 75c. (56a. 6d. per qr.) At Bor. damn ' with a moderate demand, wheat was quoted 261. (59a. 6d. per qr.) The temporary thaw bad done great da by causing many riven to overflow their banks. f:iirolland the canals were frozen hard, and navigatioa being stopped, there was a perfect stagnation in trade. The Mocks of Amsterdam were as follows :-Wheet, 13,000 qrs.; ryeh eat , 185, qr 000 s barley, 3,700 qn.; Gate, 2,000 qrs.; back w, 6,000 qrs.. ; ; peas, I,Booqrs. The Swims markets vary. Rile, Zurich, Schaffhouse, and Lanese, where higher for wheat ; Romanshorn, Berne, Rorschach, and Winterthur being lower. Munich, in Ba varia, was also lower. The cold weather continued at Cologne, the thermometer being four degrees below zero. There was also a vast amount of snow, which serio-asly obstructed the roads. Prices were very firm. Some flour bad sold for Belgium, at 43e. per ; and the best wheat was quoted Ms. 3d. The arrival of several vessels in the river at Galati had given a start to the wheat trade, and a, good deal had been transacted ; but in other grain there was a great calm. It was very rainy on the 15th of December, which led to the conclusion that the Danube would not freeze so early at usual. Soft wheat, 33a. Gd. to 345. 9d. Stocks at Ibraila and Galati, about 100,000 qrs. At Leghorn a good deal was done in wheat on the spot for Rome • and maize had been taken for Tuscany. Wheat bud also greught full prices, for delivery in February and March, and several cargoes intended for this port had been stopped on their way, to supply Palermo, Messina, and Naples, all of which confirmed the former reports us to a defective harvest in southern Italy. A consumptive demand on a large scale continued to favour prices at Genoa, and there was ensue little spec .da tion. Fine soft Berdianski wheat was worth 60s. tel ; ul terior Polish and Danube, rim Stock s were very short. and not much was expected from the Levant. No fore , maize was at market, and native produce had brought 375. to 395. 3d. Advices from New York continued to show very large shipment.., and some little reaction in favour of price! of breadstuffs. The canals being, closed by frost, the receipts reduced to flour were 3,200, 000 barrels. Extra state flour to 5 dohs. (20s. 7d.) per barrel ; fair extra Ohio to 5 dole.' His (21s.
