CAMBRIDGE UNI vs ESITY: —smeees— The Hon. Berkeley Octavio. Noel, son of the Baroness Barham, (a Peere , s iis her ono right,) has beets adeoittail Nobleman 111 Trinity-college. Mr. G. Cole, 01 St. John's-cellege, is admitted Bachelor of Arts. The Rev. Vilnius! Gray, B. A. has been instituted. on the pre.entation of Charles Duticorebe, E.q • to the Rectory of Kirby Misperton, in York.hire, vacant by the death of the Kev. Juin' Dere Thomas, D. D. On Saturday morning last, about two o'clock, a fire broke out in the workshop of Mr. Charles Crow, situate in Stamp Office Row, Yarmouth, which consumed the same, together with the valuable stock of cabinet goods, workmen's benches, tools, &c. An adjoining -house was also considerably damaged. The houses on the north side of Regent-street were in imminent danger; 111 r. Palsnefs 'house took fire several times, and, with perhaps many others, was saved only by the plen tiful di-charge of water from the engines, the great ex ertions of the firemen, and the prompt assistance of friends and neighbours. The buildings, stock, fond tore, &c. &c. were all insured in the Phenix Fire Office, excepting only the workmen's tools, to the value of aeloo. no part of which were insured. Norwich Word Elcceions.—lt appears probable that the representation of the Long Ward, that high honour for which so much beer, gin, and perhaps blood, was last year spilled, will again he contested. At least the dis appointed candidates, Messrs. Mitchell, Cullen, and Beckwith, have announced their intention to take the field. They do not appear disposed to enter very hearti ly into the contest, and we much doubt whether this announcement is not something like certain applications to Parliament for private bills, to be acted upon or no, as times and circumstances shall appear tojustify.— There is something novel and certainly ludicrous iu their Address; they are grown on a sudden quite pure—quite determined to stand on their characters—resolved to resist that spirit of corruption—and to make a stand against those scenes of bribery, drunkenness, and depravity, which disgraced former contests. They trust there are independent freemen enough in the Ward, to skew that it is not to be carried by a long purse. Now we scarcely believe it possible for these gentlemen to have penned their handbill with a grave countenance, but we hold it to be quite out of the question for any man of either party to preserve his gravity while reading Nlessrs. Beckwith, Mitchell, and Culley's determination to maintain invio late pad!, of t hrtion.—Our opinion of the last c on t est for ties Ward is not, we helicve, forgotten by many of our readers. 'We always protested against the employ ment of such means as were then resorted to by both parties ; but for men who stuck at nothing to obtain or preserve their ascendancy ; who owed their temporary elevation wholly and solely to corruption used in every form, and to almost unlimited extent, who never had any claim from rank or talent to the situations they held, whose whole dependence was upon the money with which they purchased their seats; for these men now to assume the language of virtuous indignation, only serves to pmve that the pockets of those who formerly thought it worth while to supply their prodigal and profuse ex penditure, are now closed against them. To serve the purpose of a party, we shall not varnish over thegnilt of bribery and corrupt influence; by wl soever prac tisc.l, we have always felt it to be our duty to denounce it, and whatever may be the triumphs of those with whom we generally act and associate, we shall always think them dearly purchased at the vs:pence of that in dependent and high • Jed feeling which ought to ant mate the mind of every freeman when he is called upon to exercise his elective franchise.

'Three o'Cloch, The Paris papers of Thursday last have arrived, but they contain nothing of much interest/ The Monitcur has an article on the late creation of Peers, which it defends, not so much on the ground of pro sent necessity, or as a measure calculated to answer a temporary purpose, as on the grounds of general and permanent policy. " A temporary embarrass ment," it says, " in often the indication of a want in social order, which had been long foreseen. The present eircumstonees, therefore, are not the Calla of what is done, but they become the symptoms of what ou;:iit to be done." The part of the budget reiati%e to the expenditure was to be cenm.unicated to the t hamber of Deputies on Thursday. The memoirs of Las Cases eve been wind It is said ti,at M.

On the trial of Cantillon, for attempting to assassinate the Duke of Wellington, which is to commence the sth of April, his Grace and several persons of his suite, together with a great number of witnesses, residing in Bel gium, are summoned to appear. The summons are transmitted to the Ministers for Foreign Affairs of England and the Netherlands, to be by them deli vered to the parties.

Royal Condescension. —We are assured that, a few nights ago, the Prince Regent, in a merry mood, determined to sup in the Pavilion. A scarlet cloth was thrown over the pavement, a splendid repast was provided, and the good-humoured Prince sat down, with a party of his friends, and spent a joyous hour. The whole of the servants, particularly the female part, were of course delighted with this mark of Royal condescension. The Earl of Morton is to be High Commissioner to the Church of Scotland.

The show of Sheep was large and prices higher. Veal and Pork both remain steady as on Monday, and prices nominally as per annexed quotations—The busi ness in the flay-market was pretty brisk this morning - , and the price of that article was the same as on Monday.
