First,—They have fully satisfied themselves that the Candles hi therto manufactured and Imported from France, and sold here under the name of "Exhibition Sperm," are greatly superior in quality to any composite candles hitherto produced, a fact proved by the large demand, exceeding several' hundred tons, sold in this country and the %lonia% whtelf, altliough charged with fully 20 per - cent. extra on the cost price in the shape of freight, duty, and charges, have yet lett a' very satisfactory return.'

For the benefit of the numeroug persori interegted in- this report, but!. not. liiWy to see it till their annual -visit.to Osterd or the f ildropoli.a, we may as well describe the- outward fea tures Of a document which haslaltl rtO l been anticipated in.scree quarters as 3 spectral•hugbear rather than as a slut reality. It i n Its, a bulky volazoe. runing to n. arty sOO folio pages, cif which more th&l. 250 are devoted to the report inielf, arranged under the - teveral head's of the state, the discipline, the studieS, and the nvenu:,..i of the University and the several Colleges and Hails, summed up with a very compendious " conclusion," The remainder of the volume consists of some legal and historical statements, correspondence, tables: of fees Wad other docuinents, and the evidence .of -ninety prelates, dig nitaries, professors, distinguished men, and University and College officials--the so-celled evidence assuming in some beam:lees the character of considerable p phlets, and' in others being confined to the 'forriisl receipts of the circulars issued by the Commission. This superficial account of thd veluine will satisfy the most sceptical member of the Unieereity that the Com missioners have Twits a report, send that they have not been entirely paralysed by the scruples which led so many respectable men to withhold the information at their command. The Commissioners express their re gret. that, Owing to these scruplesetherepore is hot quite so complete as might have been desired, but no' one can turn over the l e aves, without perceiving that there is quite enough, not merely to satisfy a large curiosity, but also to supply the necestery materials for legislative (HS= cussion. After all; those palpable, facts of the case that are before the (tees of the whale world, and which con stitute_ the operatinueattd resillts_.of the. University sets-. Aim, are the most important', and,. as'far as we can see, 'they are fully brought out in the pages before as.. As it Is, the Commissioners feel' it necessary to apologize far the,;ength of the report. •- ; e o, • • „al - tough it is the object .of nianytef kite recOuamenda :tionS rather to emancipate the: University and Colleges, and :enable them to extenittheifiitiiity then:46l*M's, and though it is rather- a bgictiing_:than`a complefe system which is suggested; yet the CoeseiniSeitiners have : ghne quite as far as was desirable, or perhaps possible s in upli scheme of reform. That proposed reform, is serious, extensive. and 'Articular. Indeed, there ls.not an office or an institution, or a procaine in the University, from the appointment of the -Vice.Chaneellor to the debts of the Undergraduetes . --from• the government of University to the time of the king vaention, which is not affected. The mere summary of else proposed alterations extends to 47 heads. The careful attention which has, been given to every point f u ll y e x p lains the increasing ' assiduity with which the Commission has held its sittings from October 19, 1850, to April 23, ,1852, seldoni With more than the interval of u week, and generally with less. Whatever difference of opinion there will be as to the merit of this or that proposal, there can be no differ ence as to the conscientious spirit in which the Commis sioners have discharged their sacred trust. They propose to give the University, with proper re serves, full power of self-government. To carry this power into effect; they propose to" create a Senate, pre serving the name of the "Congregation," consisting of all Heeds of Houses, the Troetors, ail Profeisors and public Lecturers, together with-the "enior Tutors of ail Colleges and Halls , and fo give. this body authority to o rigiu Standing Committees, and. power to app o i n t D e l egac i es , or es, for special purpose s . Thi s b o dy is proposed rather as an : addition to the existing branches of the academic legislature, the' Hebdomadal Board still retaining ire executive powers and its right to originate measures, and' the - Convocation still having that veto into which prescription has narrowed its func tious. Such an addition, liewver; has - long been re quired, and tiA recently its place. was supplied by a spe— cies of mixed Committee or confetence, that mediated between the Hebdomadal Board and the Convocation—: the Lords and t Commons of-.the University.. It is proposed to give the most- important functions of the University, the supervisi on ' o f s tudi e s, the appointment of Examinere t end the msnegement of the public libraries, to the professional: body alone, that body, however, being very,extensively remodelled.* It is also proposed that the Proetori Shall severally . bold office for two years, the first year of :the one coinciding with the last year of the other; t t he duties of the Office being confined to matters of discipline, and the election being vested in Congregation without..the .. restraint.ct.the Ca roline Cycle. Among other prapeeed changes affecting the'state and discipline of the: University may be men tioned the abolition of promissory oaths, the discontinu ance of the distinction bttsreen noblemen, • gentlemen commonsrs, and ceremoners; - Check on the credit given to undergraduates by i the early presentation of bills, and the recovery of debts in. open court, and liberty for the foundation of halls as well as. for re.idence in private lodgings, under due superintendence, without connection with any college or hell. . The alterations affecting the studieh of tho University are equally extensive. The Commissioners propose .a public examination before matriculation; the option of some special branch of study in the latter pert of the academic course; four professional boards for the regu lation of studies, viz , for Theology, Mental Philosophy,' and Philology, Jurisprudence end History, Mathemati cal and Pnysical science; the entire race netruction and . re-endowment of the Professorships, partly by the ep plication of college fallow.ships to the purpose; the elec tion of Professors by the Crown, or . the proposed Con gregation instead of the Convocation; the removal of restrictions from University scholarships and prizes, and the formation of libraries estid• museums of • physical science under the entire management of the professors. With regard to the .revericsvf the University, it is pro posed to publish all accounts, including those 'of the press; to equalise fees; V) confine the funds 'of the Uni versity to University purpoSe§o, and; to remit Abe atinip. duties on matriculation ,and degnSes• The changes proposed in the c onstitution anGovern ment of the colleges tire equally extensive and of much the same character. Time will not allow as to go into . details, but they amount To•the abolition of every untie ceCtary rule which may interfere with the true interests of the College. Among otherpointse we may instance theutilizing . of fellowships by attaching professorial duties; the creation of scholarships tenable for a limited term, the opening of all foundations to the whole university except in special cases; the election. of heads of houses from the whole body of Masters ,Of Arts; the regular. and effective visitation of the colleges, with anaual re ports to the Crown, end the power. of making and re pealing statutes. But here wo must stop. The com missioners, after carefully summing up their labours, add, " Of the proposals which affect the university, the most important are those which we have made for remodelling the constitution and abolishing th e existing monopoly of the colleges and hall s , by allowing students 'to resido at Ott ford without the expense of Connazien with those bodies. In regardtto the colleges, we would especia?tY urge the immediate necessity of 'opening the i .fellowships and scholarships, of attaching, professorships to certain col-. leges, of increasing the number and value.of. scholar-. ships, of granting to the colleges. the . power of altering. their statutes, and, above all, of prohibiting as unlawful the oaths to observe the statutes. • We endeavoured, in a leading article on Saturday, to describe the principal recommendations of the Oxfpr& University Commission. The - following " cOnclueion" will perhaps give the best idea of the effect of the " re port, which is of itself .00long for publication, and al most for abridgment;:— ' : _ . , . We have now gone through_ all the sulejeces proposed by your Mejesty for :our consideration, and. have given our opinions on each of them, its by the terms of our commission was required of nee Our report has • run to a length greater than we expected, but, if we have employed many pages in giving an acccent of obose lete customs and laws, . this has not been done merely for the purpose of recording curious facts or indulging in antiquarian research. The great aim and purpose of the statutes, both of the nuiver• . sity and of the colleges, was to perpetuate what seemed expedient at the time of their enactment, by means of laws intended to be unalterable. If we look only to their statutes, the colleges of Oxford are now what they were in the times of tho Plantagenets and Tudors, and if the Laudian Code be binding, the - University of Oxford is now what it was in the time of King Charles I,; but, in fact, almost every distinct . purpose and every -par ticular . object of the founders, almost every detail of government and administration has been neglected or superseded; therefore the peculiar character of the university and colleges of Okford made it necessary to give some' account of their ancient condition, in order to show what their present condition would be if the statutes were still maintained. . The contrariety be tween the state of ' things 'presumed by the statutes and that produced by the lapse of time could not be made clear without some inqiiiey into the ancient state of the several academical bodies, and for this t W be e e h x a c v e a lle th n o c u e reason evce have deemed it necessary to enter into such inquiries at some length.

It mast be manifest, however, on a cursory survey, that these recommendations are very different both in kind' and in importance. Some the university and the colleges have not the power to adopt without assistance from superior 'authority; some they have power to carry oat, though they are not likely to avail themselves of that power; some we hope they may be induced to consider and to carry into effect of their own free choice; a hope which is strengthened by the fact that several important cadges have been made since your 'Majesty's Commis sion' was izsued. It may be thought doubtful 4hether those which involve alteration in the Laudian Code re quire external aid or not; but even a doubt on such a point renders it necessary to refer • the question to supe rior authority. But no doubt can exist as to the neces sity of legislative interference, if the principal measures which we have recommended for the reform of the col leges are to be carried into effect. Of, the proposals which affect the University, the most important are those which we have made for remodel ling the constitution, and for abolishing the existing monopoly of the colleges and halls, by allowing students to reside in Oxford without the expense of connexion with those bodies. In regard to the colleges, we would 'especially urge the immediate necessity of opening the fellowships and scholarships, of attaching professor ships to certain colleges, of increasing the number and value of scholarships, of granting to the colleges the power of altering their statutes, and, above all, of pro hibiting as unlawful the oaths to observe the statutes. The evil of these oaths will be much increased after the publication of the statements which we have felt it our duty to make. In offering these recommendations we have been guided solely by the desire to render the great institu tion which is the subject of our inquiry greater than it has ever been. Our object has been to lay such pro posals before your Majesty as we believe to be calcu lated to place the University of Oxford at the head of the education of the country, to make its great resources more effectually serve their high purposes, and to ren der its professors fit representatives of the learning and the intellect of England. All which we humbly submit to your Majesty's gracious consideration. Witness our hands and seals this 27th day of April, 1852. • S. NORWICH. A. C. TAIT. FRANCIS JEUNE. HENRY G. LIDDELL.

The toasts were.; received with much enthusiasm; and the National Anthem was very efficiently performed after the health of the Queen had been drunk. The toast of " The Navy and Army" was very neatly acknowledged by Admiral Sin C. Adam. . The P.RIME WARDEN then proposed " The health of ;he Foreign Ministers," connecting the toast with the names of the American Minister and the Persian Envoy. . s Tho e toot was drank. amid tetach'applantte. : s ISO tifecielleneY the Astreatioaki 041 MiXesrme, 'IM very cordially received; said—Mr. Prime Warden, my Lords, and Gentlemen, in behalf of the corps to which Thelong,' l i beg to present• their thanks and mine for the high honour you have done them io drinking their health on this occasion.—(flear, hear.) I can 'only regret that some others of my colleagues are not here to return thanks to you, Sir, and to .this ancient corporation, for your kind hospitality, extended to us on this and many other occasions.—(Hear, hear.) My friends upon my right represent the extreme east, and I have the honour to represent the extreme west; I am only sorry that there are not representatives to fill up the charm between us.—(Cheers.) I will venture, however, on behalf of my colleagues, to express to you, gentlemen, what I believe they all feel, —II sincere desire to maintain peace and amity with. the . British empire.— (Cheers.) For myself, I hope I may be pardoned for saying a word, not on my own account, but on account of ray country, and of my countrymen, several of whom I notice here to-night.—(Hear, hear.) I feel highly honoured in being called upon to return thanks on this occasion, standing in the midst of one of the ancient corporations of this old, this extraordinary city of Eons don. I stand here in the midst of a corporation 2t O• years older than the country which I have the honour to represent—(Hear, hear)—and a corporation number ing now nearly eOO years of existence cannot, I think, have anything very bad in . it.—'-(Hear, hear.) I know the origin of the companies oft London, the twelve groat companies —and this among the most an cient—having control at one time not only of the cemmerce of England, but of the revenues of the Crown; and I know that not only England, but the world, has been deeply indebted to these corporations in early times for their commerce, for their liberal spirit, for their promotion of constitutional liberty.—(Hear.) This Corporation has the honour of numbering among its members the man who slew Wat Tyler.—(Cheers.) Your Corporation has now, Sir, turned from the arts of commerce, from trade, to something else; it has turned from the occupations and professions with which it started, and has become a great charity.—(Hear, hear.) You are now educating the orphan, sustaining the widow in her distress, carrying light and knowledge and virtue and religion through your country and the world.— (Hear, hear.) I hope that the prosperity of this Cor poration may long continue, and that you may add to your numbers, as you have done to-day, great and glo rious names, which we feel proud to speak.—(Cheers.) I cannot sit down without expressing my gratification at meeting here many of those excellent friends with whom I have been on terms not only of amity and international comity, but with' whom it is more than that—(Hear, hear)—and I hope they will respond to the idea—we have been personal friends.—(Cheers.) But I know you ' have a long list of toasts, and some of the eloquent of England are to follow; I will therefore take up no more of your time, except by stating that my friends on my right charge me to say how much they are gratified in meeting you—(Cheers)—and let me add, that I wish this Corporation: and all its members prosperity and happi ness, and another fire hundred years of as much useful ness and honour as the last.—(Cheers and laughter.) The PRINE WARDEN then proposed " The House of Peer.," coupling with the toast the names of the Mar quis of Clanricarde and Earl Grey. The House of Peers recruited its -ranks, occasionally, from the body of the people, and the coramonalty might almost be jealous of that noble House for absorbing such a large portion of the wealth, and intelligence, and dignity of the country; but it was gratifying that those who had so distinguished themselves should be raised to' honour.—(Hear, hear.) The Marquis of Clanricarde had carried out very im portant improvements in an establishment in the City— the Yost-office —(Cheers)—and the company would delight to honour Earl Grey for his own excellence as well as for that drown et venerabile nomen which he bore. The toast was much applauded. The Marquis of CLANRICARDE said,—ln performing the task which your kindness imposes upon me, I beg to express my sincere • conviction that the House of Peers are deeply sensible of such compliments as that which you have been pleased to pay them.—(Hear, hoar.) They know the value of such tokens in up holding and maintaining and extending their au thority and influence and means of being useful to their country.—(Hear, hear.) The House of Lords is indeed, as yon have said, Sir, constantly recruited from the ranks of the rest Of the community, and especially from the noble services and professions of the country; and therefore there asn be little doubt that it will retain that sincere love of liberty and national iedependence, as well as order, for which that assembly has been distin guished. It has always shown the most strict and jealous regard to the rights and pr i v ile ges of a ll c l as se s of the com mun ity; and if at times that assembly may have ap peered to be less prompt or less eager to adopt reforms or innovations, the Lords have never shown themselves insensible to the requirements of the country, or to the feelings of their fellow-countrymen.—(Hear.) I think it must be allowed that they have fulfilled the duties al lotted to them with advantage to the country. For my self, Sir, I thank you for the very flattering manger in which you have been pleased to speak of me. It is very gratifying to me to be admitted to the splendid hospita lity of so respectable and honourable a corporation of the greatest metropolis in the world, particularly a.oora poration so distinguished for maintaining thesepurtPei: of civil and religious liberty which I have alw ays .. deavoured, to the best of my . power, to promotes ...e. which onentioned my Prime Warden, the manner in t. nooses upon me the name in connexion with this d t 0 00aws pea h i st has been said by duty of adding afeworls share with him the grati my Noble Friend .

The " Health of the Prime Warden" was proposed by the Merquis of CLANRICARDE , and dr k with prop osed by na much The PRIME WARDEN then proposed " The Health of the Earl of Clarendon," who had that day permitted the company to enrol him among their honorary members, and whose health th e y wou ld d r i n k as a brother Fish monger.—(Cheers.)
