MALVERN COLLEGE.—We are glad to learn that
this
excellent institution, under the able presidentship of
Itl" Bishop of Worcester, assisted by Lords Lyttleton and
nalchamp, and :other influential gentlemen, is making
14,,Pid progress. The Autumn term commenced on the
10th instant, with upwards of 100 pupils, and this
i4erease has necessitated additions being made, not only
to the educational staff, but to the buildings, for the corn-
('l °to accommodation of masters and boarders.
