ships at Cambridge, should be bona fide members of the United Church of England and Ireland.

Every College, under the New Statutes, has the power of electing persons distinguished for Literary or Scientific merits, whether married or not, into Honorary Fellowships. These Honorary Fellows have no voice or authority in the College, nor claims for dividend or College patronage, but may enjoy such other privileges and advantages as the Master and Foundation Fellows may from time to time determine.

It may be here observed, that although Members of the Church of England and Ireland only are eligible to Foundation Fellowships; this restriction is not extended to Scholarships, as the Cambridge University Act provides, that it shall not be necessary for any person, on obtaining any Exhibition, Scholarship, or other College emolument available for the assistance of an Undergraduate Student in his Academical Education, to make or subscribe any declaration of his religious opinion or belief, or to take any oath whatever.

The Scholarship funds at all the Colleges have been considerably augmented either by the conversion of Bye Fellowships or Foundation Fellowships into Scholarships, or by permanent payments from the general revenues of the Colleges to the Scholarship Funds. All the Colleges have also instituted Scholarships or Exhibitions open to the competition of Students before coming into residence. By these liberal concessions for the aid and encouragement of deserving Students, the

incomes every year available for Scholarships, Exhibitions, Sizarships and Prizes, at the several Colleges, are as follows:

St. Peter's College, between £1100 and £1200.
Clare College, between £1200 and £1300.

Pembroke College, between £1000 and £1100.
Gonville and Caius College, between £1900 and £2000.
Trinity Hall, between £600 and £700.

Corpus Christi College, between £1200 and £1300.
King's College, the New Statute not yet in force.
Queens' College, between £700 and £800.

St. Catharine's College, between £1000 and £1100.
Jesus College, between £1300 and £1400.
Christ's College, between £1800 and £1900.
St. John's College, between £6600 and £6700.
Magdalene College, between £1400 and £1500.
Trinity College, between £8900 and £9000.
Emmanuel College, between £1500 and £1600.
Sidney Sussex College, between £2100 and £2200.
Downing College, between £800 and £900.

In some cases, however, it will be seen that the whole of the revenues assigned for the augmentation of the Scholarship Funds, have not yet become available for that purpose, on account of the rights of persons under the old Statutes not having yet ceased and determined.
