TO THE MEMBERS OF THE SENATE OF THE
UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE.
GENTLEMEN,—Ou the announcement of Mr.
Wigram's resignation: of the representation of the
'university of Cambridge betng made public, I was invited by
a numerous requisition of influential Members of the Senate
to offer myself for the vacant Seat. Regarding this invitation
as a recognition that my public life hitherto has been such as
to earn the confidence of the requisitionists, I did not hesitate
to place myself in their hands as candidate for a distinction
which may reasonably be considered as a due acknowledgment
of past services.
After a careful canvass of the Electors, and acting by the
advice of my Committees, I proposed to my opponent, Mr.
Belwyn, that we should submit our promise-books to the
arbitration of Mr. Walpole, in order to spare the University
the inconvenience of a prolonged contest. Mr. Selwyn con-
senting, the reference took place, and Mr. Walpole has advised
me not to proceed to the Poll, although the numbers and he
character of the promises which I have received are such as
to make me glad that I entered upon this contest, rather than
secured any other less distinguished seat.
I therefore bow to this recommendation, and I retire into
privacy. If, however, the day shall, come when Cambridge
needs a representative who will honestly, sedulously, and in-
dependently watch over the interests of religion and learning
as connected with the University, as the chief occupaton of his
public life, and the highest object of his personal ambition, I
am ready at the call. With the expression of the warmest
gratitude to those Members of the Senate who have reposed
their confidence in me, and with a full expectation that I may
hereafter conciliate still greater support,
I am Gentlemen,
With great. respect,
Your faithful and obedient servant,
A. J. B. BERESFORD HOPE.

BLIND TO THE. GLORIES OF SUNSET .--At the
recent anniversary a the' St. Martin's School of Art, as
reported in the Rudder, the. Hon. Mr. Cowper, M.P., the
chairman, remarked how very few persons there were
who looked much at tho'se gorgeous sights which were
constantly to beseeii in the skies: even when the most
glorious sunset was taking place. persons for the most
part passed heedlessly along the crowded thorough-
fare • and the number of those were but few who
raised their eyes 'from the level of the pavement to
notice what was going on above their heads. The late
Mr. Rogers, who vas remarkable for always indulging
his sentiments of ' the 'beautiful in this respect, was
in the habit of walking up and down in the Green• Park at
evening when the sunset was taking place ; and he enjoyed
the sight so much himself, that he used to stop persons and
invite them to look up into the sky, and share with him the
magnificence of the sight. • But housed to say that he could
not find one person in twenty who took the slightest inte-
rest in what he was.pointing out, and that they only looked
on him as a troublesome, strange old gentleman, who was
trying to point out something which was not in the least
worth seeing. It was astonishing the number of beauties
which persons lost by never having trained their power of
observation.

ON TRUE and FALSE SPERMATORRHCEA ;
with the View to the Correction of wide-spread Errors
in relation to the Treatment and Cure of Sufferers from De-
bility of the Generative system, or Sexual Hypoehrondriasis.

Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD.

" Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent
practical contributions to German medical literature. This
is the first time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself
to the non-medical reader. We trust that this may not be the
last, if he shall detect any other oqually flagrant evil which it
may be in his power to correct."—London Medical Gazette.

" The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers
from this distressing malady by translating this little book,
and by laying bare the scandalous practices of unqualified
adventurers, who profess to cure a disease of which they
know nothing, with no other object than to fill their own
purses. The difference between true Spermatorrhcea and the
various forms of disease which resemble it are accurately de-
scribed, and thus a safe guide is offered for the treatment of
the malady."—Medical Circular.
" We have delayed so long upon the contents of the preli-
minary chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space for
any notice of the subject specially treated of by Dr. Pickford ;
but the moderate price at which the 'brochure' is sold, places
it within the reach of every one interested in the matter."—

(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)
NEWPORT BOROUGH ELECTION.--The Mayor has given
notice that he shall proceed to the election. of two members
to represent this borough in Parliament, at the Guildhall,
Newport, at eleven o'clock, on Friday next. As Messrs.
Cooke and Flowers have retired from the contest, Messrs.
Kennard and Powys will be returned without opposition.
Thus two votes will be lost to the cause of the Ballot.
Neglecting the register is said to have been the principal
cause of the defeat of the Liberals; but, the division among
the leaders of the Liberals has al's(); tiad something to do
with this untoward event.

They rowed from Putney Aqueduct Bridge to Chiswick
Eyot, the prizes being silver cups. They started well
together, and the inhabitants of Fulham and Putney had
the opportunity of witnessing a good contest. The race
was a very hard fought one for a quarter of a mile, during
which time the boats were oar and oar. Red then gradually
drew away, but the contest was still a good one for the next
300 yards, when Red were about a clear length in advance.
At the point Blue might have redeemed their lost ground,
but were steered out into mid-stream, therebylosing several
lengths. Red, in consequence, were enabled considerably
to increase their lead, and came in the winners by 150
yards.
