OXFORD UNIVERSITY REFORM. We must repeat our belief that the provisions of the Oxford Bill in this particular were based upon an assump tion not substantially sound—viz., that Colleges. and therein the University, had direct and paramount claims to the immediate services of all their own Fellows in the form of tuition or residence, and that, wherever these conditions were not fulfilled, special oause should be shown. Whatever may be the theory on such points, we are perfectly convinced that these views could not be carried out without injury to the colleges themselves. As far as we are aware, no instifices have occurred in either university where auy colleges have suffered from a want of resident, Fellows to fill college offices ; on the contrary, these offices are ipvariably regarded as exceed ingly eligible situations. This much, therefore, we think, may be taken for granted—that no legislative provisions are necessary for securing good or sufficient college service, but that such service will always be rendered without compulsion. After this, it appears to us to follow directly that the residue of power, that is to say, the abilities of all the Fellows not engaged or required in college offices, should be made •as available •as possible for, the general service of the country --a principle equally conducive to their own advantage and that of the nation. To keep all Fellows of Colleges in o . xford would be nearly as bad as keeping all missionaries at home. Their duties may lie abroad, and can be performed 'abroad without the smallest detriment to the society to which they belong. I —Tintey. PARISH OF ST. MARY, LAMBETH. ELECTION OF CHURCHWARDENS.

CHARGE OP FORGERY AGAINST A LIVERPOOL TEA MERCHANT.—LIVERPOOL, Friday.—This afternoon, Mr. William Haselden, a tea merchant of this town, and a gentleman who has hitherto been highly respected, was placed before the magistrates, charged with obtaining the aura of 2,0001. f rom th e Li verpool Borough Bank by meansof a, forged o r d er for thelielivery'of 20Q chests of It appear e d f rom the statement of Mr. Aspinall, the barrister,otliWillie,oeared on behalf of th e prosecution that in the who is a te a February of l as t year t h e pr i soner, me and broker in Liverpool, was de sirous of openin o tf sth a, loan account with the Borough Bank.

We learn with much gratification that Ministers are prepared to introduce considerable modifications into those provisions of the Oxford Reform Bill which affect the tenure of Fellowships. On more than one occasion we have placed this important subject in all its various bearings before the eyes of our readers. The object aimed at by the clauses in question is the prevention of certain indefensible and notorious abuses.. Fellowships, in some cases, are both acquired and resided without any advantage accruing to the public from the endow ment. The acquisition of these appointments is to be regulated for the future by arrangements to which we need not at present refer; but, besides this, the tenure also is to be determinable by conditions of greater stringency than have hitherto prevailed. Up to the present time a Fel lowship has been considered as a reward for service per formed ; but it is now proposed to charge it with certain duties, and to tolerate the omission of these duties only by special license, and for a limited period of time. The duties in question, according to the original scheme, in volved residence in the University for 24 weeks in the year, and habitual devotion either to study or tuition. Exceptions were allowed in favour of Fellows desiring to travel, or engaged in other liberal professions else where, but the license granted for these purposes was never to extend beyond a term of five years in the whole. Practically speaking, therefore, no Fellowship w ould have been available for more than five years in any of the pursuits of active life, and, as such a period would be notoriously insufficient in the majority of cases to give any secure footing, it followed that Fellowships, as incentives to study, would lose a great part of their public value. It will now, we believe, be proposed to extend the period of exemption to eight years, instead of five, and to make the exemption rather _a matter of right to be claimed by any Fellow at his discretion, than a matter of favour to be determined by the College. These mo difications are undoubtedly steps in the right direction ; but, while acknowledging the s p irit of conciliation b y which such concessions have been dictated, we are still compelled to doubt whether too many restrictions are not left behind, and whether the large public utility of these endowments is not damaged by the very pro visions designed to improve them. We observe, for • instance, that the eight years leave of absence from the University is to be granted only for exercise and prepa ration in the " professions of holy orders, law, or physic," or "for employment in the education of youth." But what reason can be shown for such limitations as these ? Why should a Fellow of a College just entering on active life, and bringing his approvedlabilities to the service of the world at large, be restricted by such conditions in the choice of his calling ? No doubt, the old statutes of Colleges, in providing for such - employments, specified law and physic as the pe culiar branches, of learning which might share with theology the attention of College Fellows, but this was because these three faculties then constituted, in reality, the only three liberal professions. Now, however, the case is widely altered. A score of callings equally liberal in character, and equally valuable iu re sults, invite the devotion of the young and energetic. Civil engineering in all its branches—literature and science in their thousand departinents— are but speci mens of the pursuits which every man's reflection will suggest to him. Why should College Fellows be thrown into two professions exclusively, and especially into those two which can certainly be studied to very good effect elsewhere than at the Universities ? The very exc e llen c e of a University education consists in its general rather than its special character—a charac ter fitting the proficient for almost any pursuit of active life. Under the proposed regulation, however, a Fel lowship will be useless to any person not intending to make himself either a clergyman, barrister, physician, or schoolmaster. He cannot become an engineer or a mechanician, an artist or a:- lecturer ; he cannot carry his talents to the direct service of the State, or turn them into any newly-discovered channel of promise. Even his travels cannot be extended beyond two years; and, though few callings can be conceived more laudable than that of a missionary, he could not devote himself and his stipend to this unexceptionable duty. A fellow ship could not so much as be taken after the eight years have elapsed to eke out the income of a poor curacy or vicarage, and thus provide adestitute parish with effec tive teaching and superintendence. We are strongly of opinion that all these restric tions should be given up, and that the holder of a Fellowship should be left to - select at his dis cretion the most promising field for his exertions. We do, not see why even the military or naval ser vice of the State should not get the benefit of such ,accessions of ability. The engineers in the former and the scientific department of the lattter might be all the better for such infusions of talent. In the Peninsular war Government actually made applications to Cam bridge for such assistance, and at this moment, if we are not misinformed, a surveying vessel is under the com mand of a Fellow of a college distinguished for his mathematical attainments. All this, however, is matter for private discretion. We are now arguing solely for the fellow s hip s th emse l ves , an d f or th e public purposes to which these endowments may be turned. It is quite evident that if Fellowships constitute, as they do, the real motive power of the Universities, this power will be greater and more effective in proportion to the con vertibility of the endowment. It should- never be for gotten thal Fellowships are not ends, but means, and that, as such, the more negotiable they are the greater will be the competition they excite, and the greater, con sequently, the benefit of the University and the nation at large.
