Many of our readers, says the arforal herald,
know that a very considerable degree of iiiterept loss
been created among the member,. of this University
by the opening scene in the novel of "Kenilworth."
Cumtior, since the commencement of Term, has
been daily visited by groups of gownimen, anxious
to verify, by local onspection, the details given ill
" of Anthony F'oster's, Nlantion ; and
the old sign of the Bear and Ragged Staff has al-
ready been restored, by sub-cription, mid placed over
the door of the village alehouse, as kept by the late
(.ilea Gosling." IVe conceive that the publica-
tion of the following iiiterrpting Letter, with which
a Gentleman of the University has favoured us,
will be particularly acceptable to our readers ut the
present moment :

Master of A. le of Canibrig., In 110 Eriende in London,
