CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY.

.Tress Association—Copyright. London, February 16.

The Duke of Devonshire, in a letter to the press, urgently appeals for subscriptions for the endowment of Cambridge University. Ho declares that altogether the .capital sum of a million and a half, apart from any pension fund for professors, might, without extravagance, be immediately expended in the provision and equipment of the staff. The Times suggests that they might supplement any likely subscriptions by the ultimate tapping of sources that are valuable and by suppressing some of the smaller colleges and amalgamating others.
