UNIVERSITY INTELLIGENCE.

OXFORD, March 8.
REJECTION OF THE STATUE FOR ENDOWING
THE GREEK PROFESSORSHIP,
A convocation was held in the S neldonian Theatre
this afternoon, at two o'clock, for the purpose of
taking the votes on the proposed new statute for
endowing the Greek professorship. Tao occasion
was one of great interest and excitement, and mem-
bers of convocation from all parts of England came
to take part in the struggle.
The Vice-Chancellor opened the proceedings, and
submitted the proposed statute, whereupon Arch-.
deacon Denison proceeded to address the house
against the statute amid great interruptions from its
supporters; but the archdeacon, nothing daunted,
persevered in pro: esting against its passing.
The voting then took place, the placets leaving
the theatre by one door, while the non•placets left
by another; the proctors, assisted by other mem-
bers of convocation, acting as tellers. About three
o'clock the voting was brought to a close, and the
proctors cast up the votes.

It was evident from the commencement that the
non-placets were in a large majority, but, greatly
to the surprise of every one, the Senior Proctor,
through nervousness, proclaimed " Majori parti
placet." He immediately after discovered th-t he
had made a slight mistake, but not early enough to
prevent such a demonstration of enthusiasm on the
part of Professor Jowett and the undergraduates in
the gallery as shook the very building. Order at
length being restored the Senior Proctor corrected
his slight mistake and announced " Majori parti
non-placet." The tables of course were immediately
turned. The opponents of the statute were in
ecstasies, and its supporters, who before were so
enthusiastic with their cheers, indulged in groans
and hisses. The numbers were :
Non-placet .....................467
Placet
.......... 395

Majority against the statute_ .. 72
Among the supporters of the statute were the
Earl of Harrowby, Mr. Cardwell, 1N1.P., Lord
Taunton, lion, E. L. Stanley, the Dean of West-
minster, the Dean of Christ Church, Mr. C. Neate,
M.P., Dr. Posey, Professor Pearson, and Mr.
Grant-Duff, M.P. Among the opponents were
Archdeacon Denison, Mr. Henley, M.P., Sir Staf-
ford Northcote, M.P., Rev. Dr. Irons, Rev. Dr.
Jelf, and Rev. Dr. Hersey.
