Abstract
CAMBRIDGE.—It appears rather noteworthy that at a very recent debate in the Cambridge Union (May 4), a motion proposed by Mr. Theodore Beck, of Trinity College, affirming that the Tripos system of education here adopted is unfavourable to the interests of original research and individual culture, should have been lost by only three votes, after speeches in opposition to the motion in which more than one distinguished Tripos man took part. The votes were: For the motion, 51; against, 54.
