JEWISH DISABILITIES RELIEF

BILL.

In our paper of yesterday we recorded the presen-
tation by Lord Palmerston—a former representative
of the University of Cambridge—of a petition from
members of the Senate, in favour of the Bill for the
relief of Jewish Disabilities.

On the occasion, Mr. Goulburn—the present re-
presentative of the same university—stated himself to
have received a petition from the University of Cam-
bridge, against the Bill. it is no doubt true that
such a petition has been entrusted to Mr. Goulburn.
The meeting at which this petition was passed com-
prised in all 117 members of the Senate, of whom 78
voted for, and 39 against, the petition with which Mr.
Goulburn is entrusted.

To the petition presented by Lord Palmerston, not
one of the names of those 39 dissentients is appended,
those gentleman having already pronounced their opi-
nion, unsuccessfully, in the Senate.
The following list, giving the names of those who
did sign the petition presented by Lord Palmerston,
will serve to show that the intelligence and liberality
of the University of Cambridge are not to be mea-
sured by the recorded acts of resident members of the
Senate :
