,receipts of the circulaiii' issued` by the Commission.
,This superficial account of the volume will satisfy the
most sceptical member of:tionUoiversity that the Corn-
rhissionQrs have:made a report, and that Ahoy have not
been entirely paralysed by, the scruples whieh- led so
.many respectable men itr withhold the "inforniation at
their command. Tbo,Commissioners express their re-
gret that, owing to these scruples, the report is not quite
so complete as might have been desired, but no one can
turn over the leaves without perceiving that there it '
quite enough, not merely to satisfy a large curiosity, but
also to sunly the necessary Materials for legislative dis-
cussion. After all, those palpable'faets of the case that
are before the eyes of the whole world, and which con-
.
stituto the operation and results of the' University spa-
, tem, are the most important, and, as far as we can see,
they are fully brought out in the pages before no. As it
is, the Commissioners feel it necessary to apologize for
the length of the report.
Though it is the object of many of the recommenda-
tions rather to emancipate the University and•Colleges,-
end enable them to extend their utility themselves, and
though it is rather a beginning than a complete system
which is suggested, yet . the 'Commissioners have gone'
quite as far as was desirable, or perhaps possible, in fill-
ing tip a scheme of reform,. That proposed .reform, is
serious,'extensive, and particular. Indeed, there is not
an office or an institution, or a practice in the University,
from the qpoiotthent of the Vice-Chancellor to the
debts of the Undergraduates—from the government of
:University to the time of the long vacation, which is not
effected. The mere summary of the proposed alterations
ex ends to 47 heads. The careful attention which has
been given to every point fully explains the increasing
assiduity with which the Commission has held its sittings
from October 19, 1850, to April .23, 1852, seldom with
more than the interval of a week, and generally with.
less. Whatever difference of opinion there will be as-to
[ the merit of this'Or that proposal, thorn can be no differ-
ence .
Us to ihq conSetentious spirit in which the COMM/3-:
'timers have discharged their sacred trust.
They propose to give the University, with proper re-
serves, fail power_ of self-governitients To carry this
power into effeet, they propose to create a Senate, pre-
serving the name of-the " Congregation," consisting of
all Heeds of !lenses, the Proctors, all Professors and
public Lecturers, together with the senior Tutors of all'
Colleges and Halls, and to give this body authority to
originate reeasureii, xnd power to appoint Delegacies, or
Stanclitig Committees, for special purposes. This body
is proposed rather as an addition to the existing
branches of the 'academic -legislature; the Hebdomadal
.:Board Still retaining its executive ptivvers and its right
to originate measuree, and the Convocation still having
that veto into which prescription has narrowed its func-
.tionse Such addition, however, has lent; been re-
xinised, and till recently its 'place was 'supplied by a sPe,
tics of mixed committee or conforenoe, that mediated
:between the, ilehdoneedel. Board and the Convocatioa—

for two years, the first year of the one coinciding with
the last year of the other; the- duties of the office being
confined to matters of discipline, and the election being
vested in Congregation without the restraint of the Ca-
roline Cycle. Among other proposed changes affecting
the state and discipline of the Univereity•may be men-
tioned the abOlition of promissory oaths, the discontinu-
ance of the d,istinction between noblemen, gentlemen
common,rs, and commoners; a check on the credit given
to undergraduates' by the early presentation of bills, and
the recovery of debts in open court, and liberty for the
foundation of halls as well as for residence in private
lodgings, under due superintendence, with Out connection
with any college or hall.
The alterations affecting the studies of the University
are equally extensive. The Commissioners . propose a
public examinaion before matriculation; the option of
some special branch of study in the latter part of the
academic course; four professional boards for the regu-
lation of studies, viz , for Theology. MentarPhilosophy,
and Philology, Jurisprudence and History, Mathemati-
cal and Physical ediende; the entire reconstruction and
re-endowment of ,the Professorships., partly by the ap-
,plication of college fellowships to the purpose; the elec-
tion of Professors by the Crown, or the proposed Con-
gregation instead of the Convocation; the removal of
restrictions from University scholarships and prises, and
the formation 'of libraries and museums of physical
science under the entire 'management of the professors.
With regard to the revenues of the University, it is
ni pro-
posed to publish all accounts, includingthofseheou• the
press; to equalise fees; to confine the, fundso t
versity to University purposes,
duties on matriculation. and degrees. . •
Proposed in the constitution and Govern-
The changes and to remit the stamp
ment of the college:, are. equally extensive and of much
the same character. • Tithe will not' 'alibis' us to go into
details, but they. amount to the abolition of every unne•
cessary rule which :Mai interfere With the true interests
of the College. Among other points,
WO may instance tlie
utilising of fellOvriihipe by attaching professorial duties;
the cr.-Aden of scholarships tenable:fora' limited term,
