UNIVERSITY INTELLIGENCE.

CAMBRIDGE, Fan. 2.—After an arduous and protracted contest,
in which both gentlemen displayed talents and acquirements of the
highest order, " The Smith Prises" at the University of Cam-
bridge wore assigned thus

First Prize—Ds. Turner, Trin. Qd Wrangler.
Second Prize--Ds. Henry Percy Gordon, Pet. Ist Wrangler.,
Each prize is of the sum of 25/. The other candidates also
exhibited considerable abilities, with great mathematical know-
ledge. This year has proved uncommonly fertile in studious
men in every branch of literature:

Mr. Comyns Tucker, of St. Peter's College, was On Friday
last elected University Scholar, on the foundation of Sir William
Browne.

The Rev. Dr. French, ;Nester of Jeuis College; hag been pre_
rented to the Rectory of Moreinuneton, near York ; patron, the
Crown.

Oxroan, JA 29.—The Election of the new Margaret Pro-
fessor of Divinity in the room of the late Dr. Collinson, Provost
of Queen's College, is just terminated in favour of Mr. Fauseett,
of Magdalen College.

The Candidates at the time of Election being. the Rev. Dr.
Shuttleworth, Warden of New College; the Rev. Dr. Nares,
Regius Professor of Modern History ; and Mr. Faussett, the
successful Candidate—Mr. Symons, of \i'adham ; and Mr. Haw-
kins, of Oriel, two gentlemen of very distinguished learning and
talents, having withdrawn their names from the list of Candi-
dates before the election commenced. The short term allowed
by the rules of the Institution, and a Sunday intervening, was
the occasion of many being absent, so that none of the Candi-
dates had the support to whicl.l they might otherwise hare looked.
At the close of the Election the numbers stood—

For M. Fanssetl .............................. 42
Dr. Israres ................................ . 33
The Warden of New College ............ 21

Great anxiety seemed to be expressed for the success of Dr.
Nares, so well known for his theological writings. The deat%
of another much lamented head of a College while these things
were in agitation, the Hon. and Right Bev. the Lord Bishop of
Oxford, Warden of All Souls, cast a gloom over the wtaole
proceedings.
