UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE.
From the Cambridge and Hertford Independent Press.l
The Alasters and Fellows of Trinity College have determined
to build accommodations for upwards of a hundred more Stu-
dents within the walls. The new erections will ;brut a hand.
some quadrangle on the scite of the present stabling, and are
to present a handsome Gothic front towards the gardens, pa.
rallel with the library. The following is a copy of the circular
prospectui sent to such individuals as are likely to become con.
tributors towards the eXpence of the undertaking :
The Master and Seniors of Trinity College, Cambridge, have
recently agreed to add very considerably to their Buildings, by
the erection of a New Quadrangle, of such dimensions, that the
present number of sets of Apartments within the walls of the
College will be nearly doubled.
They have been led to undertake this extensive design,
(which cannot be executed without personal sacrifices oil their
own part), by a consideration of the serious evils arising
from the Lodging of great numbers of Young Alen in the
Town; which evils, briefly, are increased expence:—scanty
decommodations, and consequent unhealthiness in some of
the Lodging-Houses; and the impossibility of preserving
the same degree of salutary superb:tem/once and discipline, and
the same undisturbed opportunities fur study, which are, in an
eminent degree, the advantages and privileges of an English
University.
It is proposed to raise the money rnmisite for this design,
partly by Subscription; and 'the rest by Loan ; and it has been
agreed, " That it be a condition of the Subscription,
" that the Rents of a number of the Sets of the new
" Apartments, bearing the same proportion to their Whole
" number, as the money subscribed shall bear to the
" whole cost of the undertaking,—be appropriated• to the
" augmentation and improvement of the Ecclesiastical Ilene-
" faces in the Patronage of the Society, through the medium
of Queen Anne's Bounty, or otherwise; and to the establish-
" ment of a Dornus Fund, to be applied, from time to time,
" in aid of an extraordinary and extensive reparation or im.
4, movement of the College." And thus, the Benefactors will
have the satisfaction of contributing to an undertaking inti-
mately connected with the advancement of Religion and learn.
ing, not only in its direct and immediate, but also in its remote
and permanent consequences. They, who are best acquainted
with the College, well know, that the poverty of its Church
Preferment, and the consequent paucity of vacancies of Fel-
lowships, have been long felt as the principle imperfections, by
which our it is hoped, that it will by the projected means, be
made capable.
To the above Subscription, the College in the name of the
" Master, Fellows, and' Scholars," has contributed 2,000/.;
and Benefactions have been received from many of them intli.
vidually. Tice
e whole expence of the works is estimate at
40,0001., nearly.
r.l'he above Statement is made, in a confident hope, the
when the scheme is known, the Society will no fail to experi-
ence a generous co-operation front many who now are, or for-
merly have been Members of the College, and from others who
may be desirous that this Royal Foundation should continue,
with unimpaired, rather with augmented, powers, to be an in-
strument in the hands of Divine Providence, for diffusing the
blessings of sound learning and religious education to the latest
posterity.

DEBTOR AND CREDITOR. IN PARIS.

The following extraordinary story is told in a
Paris Journal, and its truth vouched for;--
A respectable physician had contracted a debt of 9.000 francs,
which a heavy loss rendered him unable to pay. His creditor
proseciited him. The attorney anti the bailiff; in discharging
their respective duties, observed all the delicacy and moderation
which were due to a man whom no misconduct had pieced in
so disagreeable a situation, and they would have granted him
some indulgences. The creditor, however, was inexorable,
and insisted- that they should proceed with all the rigour of
the law. On learning this determination, the wife of the
physician was seized with paralysis. The distracted husband
solicited a delay of a few hours, that he might have time
to apply to one of his friends, a wealthy banker. The bailiff
took upon himself to grant this request, but, unfortunately,
the hanker had gone to the country. The bailiff was then
obliged to obey the orders of the creditor, and to execute the
writ.regret,
he proceeded to perform this duty,
and such a terrible impression on the doc-
his Withappea mranucceh
made s
tor, that he fell dead before him. Greatly moved, the bailiff
withdrew without doing any thine, and the attorney approved
of his conduct. Two hours after, the wife of the physician,
being informed of the irreparable los* she had summed, also
expired.
Hut what adds to the fatality of these deplorable events,
is, that .while they were passing, the banker returning from
the country. On learning the request which had been made
by the Doctor, he hastened to grant it, and ordered one
of his clerks immediately to carry to him the nine thou-
sand francs. Unfortunately the relief came too late l On en-
tering the apartment, the awful spectacle was presented to the
clerk of the lifeless body of the man whose sorrows he was sent
to remove, and near it lie beheld the body of the physician's
wretched spouse also deprived of existence. The sight struck
him with horror.
This is not all ; the bailiff; who was affezted in all his faculties
by the shock he had sustained, no sooner got home than he was
struck with a nervous apoplexy. For twenty-four hours his life
was dispaired of, and his death would have been inevitable had
he not obtained the most prompt, assiduous, and skilful assist.
ance. He is still very unwell.
These facts are strictly true. We melts no reflection ; that
duty we leave to creditors who have worthy men for their
debtors.—(Jewrnai de Path.)
