  Tend In A Defence Of Convenient Monopoli...
  
  tend in a defence of convenient monopolies to fall 1 rk upon the letter of the statutes , to declare that fines are not changed , that human nature and its ^ ccssi ties remain the same , and that ingenuity can "levisc nothing better than the system which the statutes embody ; or , if not so , yet that the wills of founders are sacred , that the perpetual application of their bequests in statutable manner is guarded by anathemas which they may not encounter ; then , indeed , their manifold perjuries must fall with full weight upon them and they must take the consequences of the
  
  posi-TKlVE IfSITY OBSTBUCTIOK , AND THE SENSE OF THE t . _ Universities , like the establishment , reflect Jumper of the nation ,- they follow the will of the by which they exist , and it is idle to blame them ¦ powei y w jjat t jio nation has chosen them to be , and iOr ! ° ears to be the generous attitude to assume on ! " " rese ' nfc " l n 5 ry > - unless > or unfcil > the subjects of it ° v short-sighted wilfulness of their own , shall compel us into less " lenient feelings . If it should so turn ^ t ns the manner in which the commission has been ° erally received , and the haughty refusal to furnish r _ . 1 e with which its questions have in some in-^ 1 Ces been answered give us reason to fear that it r that the heads and fellows of the various societies
  
  tion into which they thrust themselves . It is not that wo have any fear that by this or any other process they can seriously obstruct the reform which the nation recuires ; the question is . only of the' moral position in which a large body of educated gentlemen are to stand . The arrangements of the founders of the colleges are already evaded for private advantage ; and the nation is at least equally at liberty to revise the existing interpretations , and consider whether the public good is not of as much importance as the comforts and luxuries oi' a few hundred private persons . There can be no doubt of this , and there can he no doubt that this
  
  revision will take effect precisely at the moment when the nation pronounces it necessary . It is for those at present in authority at Oxford to consider whether they will render an opposition ridiculous by resting it on a irround so futile , when , if they would state their real objection to the proposed reform , they might perhaps render real service to it ; and at least our respect would be commanded by a straightforward antagonism . No one believes that founders' wills are their true difficulty . They arc afraid of change , not for itself , but for what it may briii £ . They are afraid of Liberalism , Rationalism ,
  
  < jiTnumi . sm , which they seem to see gathering behind it—and who shall blame them ? certainly not we , it they will only be honest . It is a fair ground of fear . Tlie wisest man cannot leave the familiar ground of custom for an uuti-ietl element without misgiving ; and if" misgiving brcrome active resistance , it is no more than what experience has taught us both to look for and to respect ; only do not lot them make themselves < : onli'inpfible . by culling in a spectral legion of founders to Hii'ir assistance , whom they and we alike know to be no '"" iv Mum phantoms . — " The Oxford Commission , " II eslmhislrr ' R < 'ni . rin .

  YINEGAlt and its ADULTEIIATIONS . Some time ago , the spirited proprietors of the Lancet nppointed abody of Analj'tical iSanilary Commissioners to analyze , flit ! solids and fluids consumed hy all classes of society . Tho results of these inquiries have been published from time to time , and have asloundeif ' dio people of this country by the fact that , with lew exceptions , every article of food is more or less adulterated with deleterious substances . Tho Commissioners liavo just published a Report of ( heir Analyses of Twenty-eight ' [ Samples of Vinkoaii purchased from different retailers of tho article , who received it from the London manufacturers , four oni . v oil' which wuiMC K 1 U 51 S l'HOM l'OisojN .
