UNIVERSITY INTELLIGENCE.

CAMBRIDGE, AUG. B.—The Rev. John COW, 31. A. has
been instituted to the Rectory of Overstrand, Norfolk, on the
presentation of Lord Suffield. The Rev. John Neville White,
has been licensed to the perpetual Curacy of Great Plum-
stead, Norfolk, on the nomination of the Dean and Chapter of
Norwich.
We have great satisfaction in communicating to our readers
the resolutions which have been adopted at the last meeting of
the Commissioners for Paving and Lighting this town, with
respect to the proposed improvements of the drainage : we can-
not refuse our testimony of gratitude for the liberality dis-
played by the University on this occasion, and we rejoice that
the offers of the Vice-Chancellor and Syndicate were met
with -similar zeal and readiness on the part. of the Town-
Commissioners. We may now hope that the unpleasant
effects which a late eminent Physician declared would be
the result of 'the inclosures may be remedied; and that
the common sewers of the town may be enlarged in proportion
to the great increase of the buildings and inhabitants oh. Cam-
bridge. Whilst other improvements have been rapidly taking
place, one of the most important has been sadly neglected ; but
our expectations on thispoint'avill now shortly be realized, and
the judicious amendment to the report of the Committee will,
we trust, be the means of accomplishing the desired object of
the Drainage. The following are the proceedings to which we
have alluded : • • •
At a meeting held at the Town Hall, on Tuesday.tlie.3oth
July, the Syndicate of the University of Cambridge communi-
cated that they had come to the following agreement :
" July 29,182/.—At a meeting of the Drainage Syndicate
held this day at Jesus Lodge, it was agreed to recommend to
the Senate-
1. That assuming 2,0001. to be required for the improve-
ment of the drainage of the town, the University should give
the sum of 1,0004 to the Commissioners for Paving, &c. to-
wards such object.
" 2. That after paying their quota (4001.) of the remaining
1000/. the University, it .requested, should lend. the residue
0001.) to the said Commissioners at 2. per cent. per ,annum,
up tin their engaging to pay off the principal, so..borrowed,
at
the rate of 10 per cent. per annum: the first year's instalment
to be paid at Michaelmas 1827.
" 3. That every expence beyond the sum (20001.) above spe-
cified, should be met in the ordinary way, viz. that the Univer-
sity should contribute two-fifths of such expence, agreeably to
the directions of the Act of Parliament.
" 4. That the Commissioners be recommended to avail them-
selves of the assistance of Mr. Bevan, and that any plan which
be may propose be in the first instance submitted, as well to
the Syhdicate as to the Commissioners, for their approbation."
In consequence of the above Report, a Committee of the
Commissioners was appointed to take it into consideration, and
they came to the following Resolution :
" At a meeting of the Committee of the Commissioners for
communicating with the Syndicate of the University of Cam-
bridge. on Tuesday the 30th of July, 182/, the heads of agree-
ment concluded upon by the Syndicate being read, the Com-
mittee, Sensible of the liberality of the after made by, the Uni-
versity, -recommend the first, second, and fourth heads to be
attended to and adopted ; but they beg leave to suggest to the
Commissioners,
.that they consider it. necessary, at present to
confine the drainage works within. the sum of 2000/.
Afterwards, at this Meeting, on the motion of Mr. Elliot
Smith, the third head of agreement 'contained in the Syndi-
cate's Report was approved and adopted.
Ordered—That the Master of Bene't College, the Rev. G.
A. Browne, Mr. S. P. Beales, Mr. E. Foster, she Mayor, Mr.
J. Finch, Mr. J. Stanley, lir. E. Smith, and Mr. J. Deighton,
jun. be a committee to co-operate with the Syndicate of the
University in the measures necessary to be taken for carrying
the proposed drainage into effect, •
