UNIVERSITY INTELLIGE CE.

OXFORD, March S.
REJECTION OF THE STATUE FOR ENDOWING

THE GREEK PROFESSORSHIP,

A convocation was held in the Sueldonian Iheatre
this afternoon, at two o'clock, for the purpose of
taking the votes on the proposed new statute for
endowing the Greek professorship. Tne occasion
was one of great interest and excitement, and mem'
hers 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 dauntedr
persevered in protesting against its passing.
The voting then took place, the placets leaving •
the theatre by one door,.while the uon.placets left
by another; the proctors, assisted by other meal"
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 part=
placet." He immediately after discovered that he
i,•ad made a slight mistake, but not early enough to
prevent such a demonstration of enthusiasm on the
part co: Professor Jowett and the undergraduates ill
the gait"? as shook the very building. Order at
length restored the Senior Proctor corrected
his
ake and announced " Majori parts
alight
ig being'htm is
non-placet." The tables of course were immediately
turned. The oppoL'ents of the statute were 10
ecstasies, and its supixirters, who before were 0
enthusiastic with their cheers, indulged in groan
and hisses. The oucihsrs were
