THE FELLOW SHIP AT ALL SOULS'

COLLEGE.

(THIS DAY.)

This morning the hearing of the appeal in this case was
heard before the Archbishop of Canterbury at Lambeth.
His lordship was assisted by Lord Wensleydale and Dr.
Travers Twiss. The appeal came before the Archbishop as
Visitor of the College, by petition, from the Rev. Mr. A.
G. Watson, B.C.L. ; the Rev. W. Freeman, M.A.; and
Mr. G. Lushington, three of the Fellows of All Souls' Col-
lege, in reference to the election of Fellows in that estab-
lishment.

The petitioners were represented by the Attorney-Gene-
ral and Mr. Coleridge, and Mr. Bovill, Q.C., Mr. Kenyon,
and Mr. Granville Somerset, appeared on behalf of the
authorities of the College.

The question at issue has been the subject of much dis-
cussion at Oxford during the last few years, and has been
more than once before the courts of law. The points in
dispute are—first, whether the election of Fellows at All
Souls' College shall hereafter be determined by the actual
merits of the candidates, by their proficiency in particular
subjects of knowledge which have been prescribed by
the University Commissioners ; secondly, whether
the proceedings ought to be public, without secrecy
or concealment. Hitherto the Wardens and Fel-
lows have examined the candidates, and then, from
among those who satisfied them of their scholarship, elected
those they pleased, and not necessarily those who stood
htghest in the order of merit. It was contended by the pe-
titioners that the ordinances of the Commissioners suspended
the statutes previously in existence, and that under the
ordinance the examiners were bound to elect those
who stood highest in the order of merit, with
the single understanding that whatever might be a
man's antecedents, they might be weighed down by a pro-
fane and irreligious life thrown into the opposite scale. In
an election which took place in 1858, the Warder and
Fellows violated the terms of the ordinance and secretly
elected three candidates, and the petitioners contended that
they were not properly elected. They appealed to the Arch-
bishop, as visitor of the College, and his grace gave a deci-
sion at once. Upon this the petitioners went into the Court
of Queen's Bench for a rule calling upon the Archbishop
to hear them, to which his grace consented, and the rule
was not made absolute.

In the arguing this morning the Attorney-General went
very fully into the circumstances of the whole case on
which the petitioners relied, quoting very copiously from
the statutes of the college and the recent otatnances of the
Commissioners as they bore upon the mode of electing can-
didates to fellowships.

The proceedings, it is fully expected, will last two or
:hree days.

CRIMINAL COURT—Jam. 8.

NEW COURT,
(Before the Common Sergeant.)

.
John Dunn was sentenced to four years' penal servitude,
for uttering counterfeit coin.
John Jennings was ordered to be imprisoned for twelve
months for the same offence.

George Dash, a clerk. was indicted for stealing a quantity
of books, the property of his employers, Messrs. Whittaker
und Co., the extensive booksellers.

The Common Sergeant sentenced him to four year*
penal servitude.

POLICE IN7E'LLIcENCE—(7'hi3 Day).

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

James Casey, a discharged soldier, wearing a uniform
coat, and two medals on his breast, was charged before Mr•
Beadon with begging.

Sergeant Field, of the E Division, proved seeing the pri-
soner begging in Tottenham-court-road with a card round
his neck, with the following printed on it : " Please buy of
a poor unfortunate soldier. I lost my sight in India, and
was discharged with a small pension for a short time. God
and the soldiers at the time of war are thought of then.
When the war is over and things righted, God is forgotten
and the soldier alighted."

Welsh, the gaoler of the Court, said the prisoner was at
this Court four or five years ago, and he was then ordered
by the magistrate to bring him some clothes and set him
up, and ho did so. The medals he wore he had & right to,
as was once proved at the War-office.

Mr. Beadon asked the prisoner why he begged, and why
he did not go to the parish.

Prisoner replied that he was blind, and had four poor
ttle children at home. When his wife was last confined
he applied to St. Giles's Workhouse, but they would do
nothing for him. He had lived there 10 years.
Mr. Boadon said they were bound to give him relief, and
if he applitd at Bow•street they would soon see him
I righted.

Mr. Beadon then discharged the prisoner.
_ _

Henry Johnson was charged with stealing a pair of
boots, of the value of 12s. 6d., from the shop of Mr. Hen-
derson, bcotmaker, of Tottenham-court-road ; and, it
having been proved that ho had been convicted of stealing
a timepiece, in Bond-street, ho was committed for trial. .
