Abstract
THE movement for founding a new university in the north of England has progressed considerably since the question was discussed in these columns in July, 1876. It has now shaped itself into a final memorial to the Privy Council, which will be presented to the Lord President by a peculiarly powerful deputation this very day. Let us hope that the reply will be a favourable one, believing as we do that the educational welfare of the country demands an increase in the number of its universities. It may be desirable to say a few words about the progress of this movement.
