E. Eardley, Caius College, M.A.-Hon. A. Calthorpe, Pembroke Hall, M. A. - Sir Culling Smith, Bart. Trinity College, M.A. After the Chancellor had conferred the several other degrees with his usual dignity, Mr. Thomas Babington Macaulay, of Trinity College, recited his English poem on Pompeii, which had gained the Chancellor's gold medal.

On his return, the Mayor and Corporation waited on his Royal Highness at Trinity Lodge, and presented an Address from the body. The Royal Party then proceeded to St. Mary's Church, to hear the Oratorio of Judas Maccabeus. At the conclusion of the part then in performance, "God save the King" was played by the whole band, and sung by the choir, consisting of many of the first performers of the day.

The Royal Party, with a number of distinguished persons, dined at Trinity College. In the evening their Royal Highnesses attended a Concert which was held in the Senate House. Professor Hague led the band, and was ably sup ported by Messrs. Mori and Lindley, Mrs. Salmon, Mad. Bellochi, and Messrs. Braham, Knyvett, Bellamy, and Vaughan. They were encored in most of their songs, and 2000 persons were present.

July 6. This being Commencementday, on which the creation of Doctors and Masters of Arts takes place, a congregation was held by the Proctors at eight o'clock, when they created the Masters of Arts, in order that H. R. H. the Chancellor and the illustrious visi tors might not be detained too long at the usual congregation. At ten o'clock, the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester, with the Princess Sophia, went in State to the Senate House, where his Royal Highness distributed the Prizes to Messrs. H. Waddington, T. Hall, and Oakes.

After the creations were concluded, the Public Orator presented the Right Hon. Charles Grant, of Magdalen College, for admission to the Honorary Degree of Doctor in Civil Law, which was conferred upon him by his Royal Highness.-Upon leaving the Senate House, their Royal Highnesses visited the Public Library, and the Fitzwilliam Museum, where they appeared highly delighted with the magnificent collection of pictures and books.

About four o'clock a superb dejeune was given in the cloisters of Trinity College. No less than 1500 Ladies and Gentlemen sat down to a very elegant cold collation, followed by a fine dessert of fruit, ices, &c. with a variety of wines. It was originally intended that there should have been a dance in the open air, and a platform had been erected for that purpose in one of the avenues of Trinity Walks; but the weather proving unfavourable, their Royal Highnesses and the

company, after a short promenade in Trinity Library, retired to the Hall, where the dancing was kept up until the Royal visitors retired. There was another concert at the Senate House in the evening.

July 7. This morning the Royal party, after having attended an Oratorio at King's College Chapel, departed from the University, and proceeded to Audley End, the beautiful seat of Lord Braybrooke, to dinner.

A Monument, by the celebated Chantrey, of the late HENRY KIRKE WHITE, of St. John's College, Cambridge, has been erected in All Saints' Church, by an American gentleman of the name of Boolt. The particulars are these: - - The wellknown Life of Henry Kirke White, written by Southey, being as popular a work in America as it is in this country, excited in the mind of Mr. Boott, a desire to visit the place of Mr. White's interment; and, going to Cambridge for this purpose, he was surprised to find that no mark of respect had been shewn to his memory, either by monument or inscription, in the place where he was buried. Mr. Boott, therefore, requested and obtained permission to erect a monument in the Church, "as a tribute to departed genius." The artist applied to was Mr. Chantrey, who has fulfilled his commission with the utmost classical taste and merit as a sculptor. The monument has been erected on the West side of the Church, facing the altar. It consists of white marble; and exhibits within a medallion the portrait of Mr. White in basrelief. Below the medallion are the fullowing lines from the pen of the Rev. Wm. Smyth, the Professor of Modern History : "Warm with fond hope and Learning's sacred flame, [came ;

To Granta's bowers the youthful poet
Unconquer'd pow'rs th' immortal mind
display'd,
[decay'd.

But, worn with anxious thought, the frame
Pale o'er his lamp, and in his cell retir'd,
The Marlyr student faded and expir'd.
O Genius, Taste, and Piety, sincere,
Too early lost 'midst duties too severe !
Foremost to mourn was generous SOUTHEY

wave

A wanderer came, and sought the Poet's On yon low stone he saw his lonely name, And rais'd this fond memorial to his fame."

In the execution of the portrait, Mr. Chantrey has been eminently successful: it is a striking likeness of the man; but the style and beauty of the sculpture may be compared to the best works of Grecian artists; and in the manner of executing the medallion the sculptor has been

guided by the purest models of taste. The works both of Grecian and Egyptian sculptors afford examples of relievos protected by being, as it were, imbedded within an excavated surface. The Hieroglyphic sculpture is all of this kind; and the Pateræ of Greece and Rome often exhibit instances of a similar nature.

Two other monuments by Mr. Chantrey, both of white marble, have also been erected in the Chapels of Trinity and S. John's Colleges. The first, to the me mory of the late Professor PORSON, is distinguished by a bust of the most exquisite sculpture, remarkable for the likeness it exhibits of that illustrious scholar; which is such as to astonish those who have seen it, and who well remember the characteristic traits of thought and mildness in his countenance. The other monument, also supporting a bust, is to the memory of Mr. Fox ToWNSHEND; aud this is not inferior, either in point of resemblance or sculpture, to either of those already described.

A Privy Council was lately held at the Treasury-chambers, presided over by Lord Harrowby, aud consisting of the Lord Chief Justices of the Courts of King's Bench and Common Pleas, and the Lord Chief Baron of the Exchequer, Sir William Scott, and Sir William Grant, and attended by the Attorney-General, &c. to investigate the circumstances attending the death of a Maltese at Athens, who was shot by Mr. W. Kinnaird (the son of the Magistrate) in January last. Mr. Kinnaird had presented himself at Malta for trial, and was sent home a prisoner to England. After a full investigation and examination, Mr. Kinnaird was discharged; being honourably acquitted of any charge against him. appeared by the evidence transmitted by the Consuls of the Levant, that the event of firing on the deceased was in absolute self-defence.

The Lord Chief Justice laid it down, a few days ago, that a person brought from the country to London to give evidence, is entitled to be paid for his loss of time, as well as his expenses, before he is sworn; and the Counsel for the plaintiff undertook that it should be done.

A serious calamity has befallen Mr. Moore, of poetical celebrity, in consequence of the misconduct of a deputy,

whom he has employed some years in his office at Bermuda, and who has embezzled a considerable sum of money (it is said 6,0007.) The cause has been decided in the Cockpit before the Lords of Appeal; and Mr. Moore being deemed legally responsible by their Lordships, an attachment was decreed against his person. The office, which was conferred on Mr. Moore by Lord Moira in 1803, has no salary annexed to it. The trifling emoluments arise from casual fees; which, in the course of the fifteen years that he has held the office, have not amounted to one fifth of the sum for which the defalcation of his deputy has made him auswerable.

By an order in Council of the 12th inst. it appears, that a prohibition is laid upon the export of gunpowder, saltpetre, and every sort of ammunition, from this kingdom, to all the ports in the Spanish dominions. The order is a corollary to the proposition of the Foreign Enlistment Act; aud, indeed, it was only fair, that as we would not permit our countrymen to fight in the armies of the South Americans, so we ought not to supply their opponents with ammunition.

The case agreed to be laid before the four Judges of the Court of King's Bench for their opinion, respecting a cause between Lord Clinton, the Hon. Mrs. Damer, and the Marquis Cholmondeley, on which property to the amount of 14,000l. per annum depends, was taken into consideration a few days ago, when Mr. Justice Holroyd and Mr. Justice Best coincided with the Master of the Rolls in favour of Mrs. Damer and the Marquis; while Mr. Justice Bayley was of a contrary opinion.

Every preparation was made, and the day fixed for the completion of their mutual happiness; when a fatal defect was discovered in the pedigree of the Noble suitor, which has deprived him of his fondest hopes.

The Bishop of Calcutta has lately addressed the Society for propagating the Gospel in Foreign Parts, informing them that the sum of 50007. voted by that Society for the promotion of Christianity in India, would be applied by his Lordship towards the erection of a Mission College in Calcutta. On the receipt of this letter, the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge, in Bartlett's-buildings, immediately voted 5000l. more towards the intended College; and the Church Missionary Society has just made a grant of 50007. in addition for the same object. Thus no less a sum than 15,000. has been voted by three Societies, in connexion with the Established Church, for the great object of promoting Christianity throughout British India.

Not less than 5000l. it is said, have been received this season for admission to the Royal Academy Exhibition.

Dr. Gregory, who attended for Dr. Ashburner, also, in reference to the accuracy of the Register of the Hospital, stated the correct system there adopted, whereby it appeared, that 1832 had received Vaccination since last Christmas, which was an increase of 750 above the numbers of last year. His Royal Highness then visited the several wards, and inquired attentively into the cases of the Patients, several of whom were confined in the severest stages of the casual Small Pox. Mr. Highmore, the Secretary, then stated to His Royal Highness the progressive state of the affairs of the Institution, and its increasing utility during the last twenty years, since the introduction of Vaccination, compared with the twenty preceding years, and the increasing number of those who now call for Vaccmation instead of Variolous Inoculation; with all which his Royal Highness was pleased to express his entire sati-faction.
