doubt be bas performed bis task conscientiously and fearlessly.

six, some with four, are called by the names of the Col-
leges to which they respectively belong ; as, 1 he Christ
Church, The Brazennose, The Magdalen, &c. Towards
the close of last Term, a young student, undergoing a
publiF examination in Divinity, manifested the grosse,t
Ignorance on the subject. At length, the Examinant, a
good-natured man, and a friend of the student's, and of
course anxious to save him from the disgrace of being
plucked, resolved to put a question in the answer to
which no blunder could possibly be made. The gues-
s ion was, How many persons we there in the Trinity?"
To this the student, without the slightest hesitation or
difficulty, replied, 4, Four, and a steerer." The univer-
sal rear that followed mar-easily be' conceived.--Lite-
r..ry Gazette."

LETTER FROM A CORRESPONDENT.
•' 1.1%50x, Sarraxszi 26.

14 We have no particular disease pi ev.dent ; slight
attacks of cholera, if it may be so called, are frequent,
but they yield to very simple treatment. At present
everything is very quiet, and I thick likely to remain so.
There are many objects wuithy of attention here, al-
though the town, 1 believe, is the dirtiest one in Chi is-
tendom. These is an extensive public Hospital, which
is said to contain 1,500 patients. Some of the Churches
are fine, but all have such a modern appearance, that.
one does not feel that veneration and respect which our
ancient Gothic piles inspire. Thefe is a Royal Museum,
which is small, but uncommonly v ell arranged. They
have a few specimens of morbid anatomy, and several
monstrosities, both human and of the lower animals.
It is under the direction of the Professor of Natural His-
tory, and open every Thursday to the public."
