OXFORD, May 23. . _ In a Convocation held this day, at 2 p.m., the Vice-Chancellor was authorised to do any acts which may be necessary for the completion of the sale of premises in Carter's-passage. The statute changing the time for appointing masters of the schools was submitted to the House and approved ; and a de cree was passed authorising the Vice-Chancellor to nominate, on the first day of Trinity Term next, a master of the schools to act for one term only. The statute establishing a Professorship of Comparative Philology, at a stipend of £6OO a year, was sub. mitted and approved. In a Congregation held immediately after, the statute on the subject of " pass" examinations, having been amended by the Hebdomadal Council, was re-promulgated. In the absence of the Dean of Christ Church, Mr. GRIFFITH, of Wadham, explained the altera tions that had been made. The PRINCIPAL of ST. MARY HALL was glad that orators were restored at "Moderations" and philo sophers allowed at the final examination. He asked why certain clauses were placed in brackets, and expressed himself in favour of allowing the amplest liberty with respect to the books and authors taken up. Dr. PeSEY hoped that the various alterations pro posed would be .made the subject of separate votes. lie noted an error in the English recapitulation of the chief provision; of the statute. There was no thing in the statute to prevent a grammar paper from being still set at " Moderations." Dr. ACLAND inquired whether there was any in tention of making modern languages a necessary poi lion of the " pass " examination. The College of Physicians now required of all candidates either natural philosophy or French or German, and either French or German was required by the Apothe caries'-hall. Dr. PUSEY said that the modern languages be longed rather to the honour than the " pass" schools. Dr: ACLAND dissented. Mr. AFGRATII, of Queen's, suggested that me chanics should be made an alternative, instead of a necessary subject in both examinations. If this were not done, he asked that the " compulsory mechanics" clauses should be made the subject of separate votes. He put in three amendments. Mr. WARD, of Magdalen Hall, agreed generally with Mr. M'Grath,- but would prefer uniting mechanics with elementary mathematics in both schools. Mr. SANDFORD, of Christ Church, hoped the sta tute would be divided "liberally" into a large num ber of votes. He could not regard it as satisfactory or final, but thought some parts might be passed with advantage, He regretted the absence of any provision for a matriculation examination. Mr. SIDGWICK, of Merton, was dissatisfied with the omission of any requirement of philosophy in the final school, and proposed to add " Aristotle's Ethics" and " Politics" to the optional subjects. He strongly objected to make " mechanics" a necessary subject in either school. Mr. BRAMLEY, of Magdalen, proposed, as an amendment, to retain the present requirement of a philosopher and a historian in the final school- He agreed with all that had been said against making mechanics a necessary subject. Mathematics did not humanise, and required a special faculty which many fairly clever men did not possess. Professor H. SMITH said that, seeing how strongly college tutors were opposed to compulsory mecha nics, he would advise that the point should be yielded. In lieu of mechanics, he would make ele mentary geometry compulsory in Moderations, and he would then give an opinion between mechanics and logic. In the final school he would make me chanica one of the optional subjects, but would re quire the candidate to take up two such subjects. Professor BURROWS agreed with the general run of speakers in regretting the discouragement of the study of " Aristotle's Ethics" and the proposal to make mechanics compulsory. Mr. CLARKE, of St. John's, thought the only valuable provisions of the statute were the allowing men to go in for "Moderations" in their fifth Term, and the acceptance of a fourth class in the honour schools as a sufficient qualification for a degree. Professor BERNARD expressed a hope that all the suggestions made would be sent in as amendments 'to council. He was sure they would be carefully considered. Ile believed the principle of the statute was that an examination should be offered suitable to a variety of minds. Mr. WicKilitm, of New College, objected to a diminution in the number of the pass examinations. Professor CLIFTON said that, as mechanics could not be profitably studied without a knowledge of elementary mathematics, he was in favour of the amendment of Prof. Smith. • _ A short statute was then promulgated on the sub ject of the Indian L•tw Reader. Mr. LIDDON, of Christ Church, explained the provisions of the statute. The object was to give to such of our students as were going to India every opportunity for continuing their studies here. The moral benefit which they thereby gained was great and most important for India. He regretted that more bad not been done by the law and Modern History School to encourage the study of Indian subjects, and he still more regretted that the Civil Service Commission set their faces against . the selected candidates continuing their studies in Ox- PRICE.... 4d. STAMPED 53. ford. Oxford, however, ought not to yield, but to persevere, trusting that in time the Civil Service would cease their opposition. Professor B unnows thought the Law and 11iodern Jiistory Examiners were not open to any reproach. They had given the subjects of Indian Law and History the place in the examination which they were entitled to. Mr. M'GRATH . , of Queen's, thought a 112 W pt in ciple was involved in appointing a Professor to teach subjects, not on their value per se, bat be cause a knowledge of them was necessary to certain persons. Ile proposed, as an amendiu;nt, to omit the reference to persons about to be employed in the Indin service. Mr. GOLDWIN SMITH', of University, sail that, though he did not believe England c )uid ever govern India satisfactorily, it was most important, while the experiment was still continued, that those who went out to engage in the Government should possess the highest character, tae, and refinement. It was, therefore, very desirable that the selected candidates should remain at Oxford. If there was any unfair opposition on the part of the Civil Ser vice Commissioners au appeal should be made to the Indian Minister. Professor BERNARD supported the provisions of the statute, and observed with respect to the Civil Service Commission that he believed their objection to the residence in Oxford of the selected candidates was owing to the fact that those who resided generally continued their academical studies, instead of giving their full attention to the work necessary to qualify them for India ; and that, further, they were often tempted to relinquish their Indian prospects and remain at Oxford alto gether. The Junior Proctor has published the list of can didates for Moderations. The number in the clas sical school is 308, in the mathematical 15. The number of candidates for classical honours is 87. The Professor of Political Economy (Mr. Bonamy Price) will deliver a lecture on Metallic Currency at the. Taylor Institution on Friday, May 29, at 2 o'clock. CONTRACTS. FOR VEGETABLES.

The half-yearly meeting of this society was held in London yesterday, Mr. Thompson in the chair. The Prince of Wales ha ring been elected president for next year, the report was read. It stated that "since the general meeting in December, 4 governors and 42 mem bers have died, the names of 189 members have been removed from the list, 138 members have been elected, SO that the society now consists' of 75 life governors, 74 annual governors, 1,409 life members, 3,888 annual members, 15 honorary members, making a total of 5,451, being a decrease of 97 names. The funded capital stands at £16,027 19s. 7d. in the New Three per Cents., the sum of £2,000 remains on deposit with the society's bankers, and the cash balance in their hands on the Ist instant was £3,243 Ils. The Leicester meeting to be held from the 16th to the 22nd July promises to exceed that of Bury St. Edmunds in the imple ment department. The entries of horses, cattle, sheep, pigs, cheese, butter, and wool will remain open as usual till the Ist of June. Mr. Larking, the representative in England of the Viceroy of Egypt, having announced the anxiety of his Highness to offer a prize cup to be awarded by the society at their next show of agricultural implements, the council have resolved on accepting the offer of his Highness the Viceroy of Egypt, of a prize for the best implement for the cultivation of the soil by steam power, combining strength with sim plicity of construction, for use in. foreign countries, where ).hour for repa!ro is difficult to be procured.' This cup, which is of the value of abou,kAlso, will be cnmpetetl for at the Leicester zneetitg, and finally awarded at the e.iourned trial after harvest." 1 ;ort was adopted. ;.;.ratib,--according to " An Lustralian Cynic," who 'tes to the Spectator—is mad. That is to say, the rulers a Australia are mad, and the people arc the same. This - ..),a7.ness wa.s breught on by the visit and attempted assassLiation of Primo Alfred. It has resulted in absurd speeches by public men and wretched d3ggerel in the n-vspapers, denouncing the crime which has been Com mttel It has brought forth a bill for the stppression of treason and sedition, which ought never, in the opinion of the writer, to have been passed by any legislature, but which was almost without opposition passed through all its stages by the Assembly and the Upper House in New South `Vales on the same clay, and received the Royal Assent early next morning. This Act renders anyone proposing separation from the mother country liable to penal servitude for life, makes it a misdemeanour to refuse to join in a loyal toast, with a penalty attached of two years' penal servitude ; and any person publishing F'' 'lions matter, whether with bad intent or not, is made L. .)le. to imprisonment for three years. Everyone knows that the immediate cause of the o, 3 34i_iiau war was Lord Russell's neglect to answer a letter in which King Theodore made proposals of marriage to Queen Victoria. By a curious coincidence, it turns out that, though the Queen is not to share his Majesty's throne, she is to possess his crown. That trinket is now being sent home as a present to our sovereign. This is an arrangement which Theodore could hardly have antici pated, and would certainly not have approved. An explanation of her Majesty's journey to Scotland in the height of the London season is volunteered by the Imperial Review. According to this authority the Queen went to the north solely in consequence of the medical advice which had been tendered to her. The deputation which waited upon the Duke of Marl borough, Lord Devon, and Mr. Gathorne Hardy, " to urge a remedy for the complicated nature of the present laws of health," have drawn attention to a matter which will doubtless obtain full consideration in a Reformed Parliament. The difficulty of carrying out the existing laws where the local authorities were either inefficient, obstinate, or powerless to act, was pointed out, and it was suggested that a royal commission of inquiry should be appointel. A hint was also given that for the interests of justice it would be well to encourage the special education of " experts " in matters of sanitary laws and skilled evi dence on medical questions by the official employment of such officers. The Duke of Marlborough, in reply, thanked the deputation for the suggestions, and said that " perhaps" the Government would adopt that of a royal commission. Mr. Mitford, the member for Miiihurst, has been one of the most active members of the Legislature in promoting the extension of the Contagious Diseases Act of 1866 to the civil population. An association was lately formed for this purpose, and at a recent meeting, over which Mr. Mitford presided, it was stated that upwards of 500 mem bers had now joined the organisation, which now com prised within its ranks many eminent Churchmen, a large number of members of the Legislature, and the chief medical and philanthropic gentlemen of the large cities of the kingdom. A communication from Sir John Paking ton, the War Minister, was read, chewing the great de crease of contagious diseases since the passing of the Act, in several towns, among the soldiers and sailors. The Duke of Cambridge is to be invited to become the presi :lent of the association. • LADVenTignmENT.J—llenceforth no one will doubt the valuable properties of Du Barry's health -restoring Revalenta Arabica Invalids' and Infants' Food, since to the thousands of blessings it has already received from Invalids whose position had been deemed hopeless, we may now add that of his Holiness the Pope, whose health has been perfectly restored by it after thirty years of unsuccessful medical treatment.

The fo. - by 111 Bela to one of his constituents, who had remonstrated against his subscribing to the Eyre Prosecution Fund:— / " Dear Sir,--I have received your letter, and have no right to complain of the severe tone you have thought fit to adopt. Throughout this unhappy Jamaica business I have been well aware that my course has been highlyclisapproved by some of my most respected supporters ; but I r a in sure you would have despised me, and I should have.despised myself, had I, feeling so intensely on this sn'nject, have suffered that consideration to silence me. G2l one point you are completely deceived. I have not, its you think, denounced Mr. Eyre for his conduct timing the sup' pression of the disturbances. So far from it, I have re. peatedly said that much allowance was duo to a governor :11 a tone of great panic and emergency, and I have lelibcrately refrained from cormarmting on his conduct during that crisis. On the Jther hand, I have never wavered in Cie opinion that tb .!re ought to be a judicial investigation into his condi Let in putting 350 men and women to death after his , own official statement had aninameed that all disturl - anee and danger was at an end.* 'That conduct may be s'isewn to have been justifiable— nay, to have exhibit(, admirable force and firmness. Great numbers of the:iwise and good think so, and you agree with them. 7Sut am I really wrong in my opinion that acts of that kind ought to be examined, not in a news paper con tro vers. ;`but by a competent tribunal? Candidly, now, would n0'..70u feel that yourself had these persons not hem negi,oes but Irish or Englishmen? So,long as the demand for that investigation was made 'upon a charge of. Murder I refused to concur in it,' When that ch urge was dropped and the investigation was demanded upon a simple charge of misdemearaerar, I could not - with honour have stood aloof. You urge that, the attempts to prosecute Mr. Eyre in Shropshire, and General Nelson in London having been made and filled, it is cruel persecution to continue such endeavours, On this point I have felt the greatest hesitation. rntre is, I admit, a shocking look almost of malignity in arch persistence. It is, however, my deliberate judgmentithat acts of the kind referred to ought not to be condonel from anyregard,how. ever honourable and humane, for the feelings of the actor. It would be very painful to me t a/suppose that these pro. ceedings would entail pecuniars. ruin upon Mr. Eyre's family. Happily, it is notori,.ar that sums vastly beyond all possible cost are at his dis'dcrial. I, for one, shall be glad to learn that the present Gc.as rnment has undertaken his defence. Many of Mr. il:7; re's warmest supporters are my personal friends. I a..ctritit and admire their chivalrous spirit. But let me, on e the other side, assure you what I know to be true, th'At Mr. Mill and his coadjutors are swayed by no base towards Mr. Eyre, but by the most disinterestedizablic spirit and sense of duty. They are and will be subje A to an almost overwhelming torrent of public indignati'm. Now, lam painfully deficient in that `pure and pe erect courage' which is the first of politital virtues, and Lahlink from a timidity of which I am my self ashamed fruit the irritation this step will excite. Still, I am not so meat a coward as not to challenge my fairshare of the obloquy and expense which these proceedings mustAnvolve, when I 'believe them to be founded in justice, and highly important for the protection of our subject races. I feel it due to myself to publish this letter, not that I expect to convince anyone that I have acted rightly, but in the hope of its chewing the more candid of 'those who have condemned me that I am not influenced by the cruel malignity which many seem to supposc.... I have carefully excluded every'word that might seem to prejudice the case). —I am, dear sir, yours very faithfully, " CHARLES BUXTON. " P.S.--T ought to say that I write without any concert with the Jamaica Committee, to •which I do not belong." 1' * Vide the Appendix to the.; Report of the Commis: sioncrs and Ofl - ►cial Despatch. LAW ARM POLICE. IMPORTANT TO SHARETOLDERS.—III the Court of Com• mon Pleas the case of Briekman v. Chambers and Others was beard. The action in the first instance -was tried before Mr. Justice Smith to recover back calls, amounting altogether to £6 per share, on twenty shares taken by the plaintiff in the General International Agency Company (Limited), on the ground that the prospectus, on the faith of which the defendant applied for the shares, contained false and fraudulent statements.. Among the defendants was Captain Polly, RN., wtrose name appeared as one of the directors on the prospectus, which induced the plaintiff to take shares ; and the prospectus also stated that the first issue had been 25,000 at £lO each, and that application had been received for upwards of one half of this issue. The company failed after the plaintiff had paid up £6 on each of his shares. Subsequently the plaintiff found that the representations of the prospectus were false, and he brought an action to recover back his money from the directors whose names were attached to that prospectus, and against Captain Polly he recovered a verdict, with £l2O damages, the jury, on the evidence, finding that he had been guilty of no moral fraud. A rule nisi for a - new trial having been ob tained, the case came on for argument. For the plaintiff it was held that, being a director, Captain Polly, in a manner, pledged himself to the• accuracy of the statements made in the prospectus; whilst, on the other hand, it was contended on behalf of the defendant that he had taken shares on the faith of one prospectus, and having afterwards been made a director, he had taken it for granted that the prospectus subse. quently issued was similar. The court gave judgment for the plaintiff, and said that the case was not one of law, but the question was one for the jury entirely. The rule was therefore discharged. CURIOUS CASE OF DAMAGE.—At Clerkenwell, Samuel Cohen, a piecebroker, was summoned before Mr. Barker for having on the 15th instant cut out his initials on the solicitors' table at the Middlesex Sessions. The damage was laid at Is. The defendant pleaded guilty, and said that his senses must have been gone when he was guilty of such a foolish act. Mr. Barker ordered him to pay the damage, is., a penalty of 2s. 6d., and the costs, 25., or in default to undergo five days' imprisonment in the House of Correction. ALLEGED CHILD MURDER.—At Hammersmith Police: court, Isabella Davidson, a domestic servant, was charged with the wilful murder of her illegitimate child. The body of a child was found in the garden of the Park House, Fulham, and conveyed to the union. Suspicion fell on the prisoner, and she was charged with the murder, and, in answer to the accusation, said, " Oh ! what will they do with me; shall I be hang ?" The body when found was enveloped in three wrappers, one of which was drawn tightly over the face and head, and the nose was coin pressed very much. The surgeon in the case said that the body was that of a child apparently ten or twelve months old, and it had been suffocated by the cloth over its face. The prisoner was remanded prior to being sent for triaL THE DUKE OF BUCCLEUCH AND THE THAMES EMBANK. TENT.—In the Court of Exchequer the case of the Duke of Buccicuch v. the Metropolitan Board of Works came on for hearing. His Grace sought to recover the sum of £8,325, being the amount awarded to him by Mr. Charles Pollock, Q.C., as umpire; the sum men tioned being for costs of the award for being deprived of the use of a jetty or pier running from Montague House, Whitehall, tb the Thames, and for shutting and obstruct ing a landing-place. The argument on the demurrer was of a public highway like that formed on the embankment taken first, and raised the question whether the substitution in lieu of the jetty or pier and a direct view and access across the river, really did injuriously affect the duke's property. The arguments are not yet finished. AN ADVERTISING WIDOW.—At the Marylebone Police court, Frederick Barry, an elderly person, described as a doctor, residing at Somers-place, Edgware-road, and Amy Rose Stewart, who said she was a widow, appeared to summonses for having fraudently ob tained the sum of £174 19s. 4d. from Walter M`Klein. The prosecutor said that about the 15th of April. last be saw the following advertisement in the Times:—" OfFer.—To Visitors, &c.--A lady, occupying a superior house, close to Hyde Park, containing billiard room, bath-room, &c., will accommodate a lady or gentle man with residence, board, washing, &c., equal to that of a West-end hotel, for twelve months, continuous or during two seasons, in return for an advance of £2OO to enable her to complete her handsome furniture arrangements. Letter, first, to Mrs. Butler, post office, Hyde Park, W." Wit ness went and looked over the woman's house, whic h he saw was only partially furnished, and offered to lend her the required sum, provided there was good security. The female prisoner said she was a widow, of very respectable connection, and had private property in Edinburgh,- and she was in expectation of receiving a large-sum of money. Witness proposed a bill of sale on the furniture, but she did not answer him, and in a letter declined making such an arrangement, saying testify t n gtiiat her landlord hergood h a had character; r known acte; her for some time and - Would and the witnen replied, that perhaps under those circum stances. the bi:l of sale ought to be done away with if n u: the landlord (t he male p risoner) would give a guarantee. Mr. M`Klein afterwards went to the " widows house, and there saw the other prisoner, who said that he was her landlord, and knew her to be a person of good means, and he would give a guarantee. He talked about having money in the Consols, but never mentioned that the woman was in debt. The case was adjourned.
