tion is in prospect of immediate removal. The Senate,
many of the colleges, and the graduates, have anxiously
considered the means of &ming an incorporation, and we
thlieee we may now state that there are no difficulties re-
maining which are of a nature to retard a settlement.
With regard to th^ other objectinn, so much of it as has not
been removed by time was founded on misapprehension.
Nearly half of our pradieves p rinanently reside within
twenty miles of the Rost-office; and we have experienced
that no .Itstaece from the metropolis renders it praetically
inaccessible to the great body. For our present and pie-
• numbers, wo way be permitted to refer to the re-
markable document lately presented by the Senate in
another matter of grave importance to the university, and to
say that our constituency, if formed on the analogy
of our sister universities, is already larger than
those of twenty-five beroughs returning two members to
parliament, or than tb it proposed for Dublin University.

pear for from premature. In acceding to it your lords
will be utisfying claims which have been recognised by
every succeeding government since the fount Lion of the
university, and will be creating a eonstituency based
upon the sacred principle of religious freedom.
Mr. Thornely, M P., Dr. Milner, Dr. Billing, Dr. Reget,
Mr. John Harris, D.O, D:. Angus, J. H. Wawa, Esq.,
M.D., and Dr. Back, supported the object of the depute.
Ihe Earl of AbIIaDZES said—l have no hesitation la
acknowledging the very strong claims you have urged for
the favourable consideration of the object you ban la
view ; and I readily admit that the constituency 'Corned by
the University of London is such a one as it would be most
agreeable to the government to orgeuise. You will not,
perhaps, expect me to 'tie a final answer to-day, but I as-
sure you that, so far truce throwing cold water on the sub-
ject—as was hinted at by one of the deputation—l do, in
the most sincere sod warmest manner possible, assure you
that the matter will ho taken under the most serious consi-
dsr-tion of the government. I do not say this as mere
1.011111 of count, but I beg you to believe that such will po-
sitively be the case.
This declaration of the Prime Minister, and the marked
sad emphatic manner in which it was delivered by his
lordship, elicited • loud cheer from the deputation, which,
after the usual courtesies, withdrew.
