and liberality, concluded by obferving, 
that the matter is reduced to this quet- 
tion: ** Whether this bye-law (requiring 
graduation at Oxford or Cambridge) 
coupled as it is with the other two dil- 
penfing bye-laws is not confiitent with 
the letter and ipirit of the charter :’’ We 
are clearly convinced, that this bye-law 
of exclufion is inconfiftent both with the 
letter and {pirit of the charter: that it 
is unjuft in its principle, and pernicious 
in its confequences, both to the College 
of Phyficians, and the profetiion of phy- 
fic: that it is contrary to law, equity, 
and reafon. We confider the two dif- 
penfing bye-laws as artful devices to 
evade a legal decifion againft the mono- 
poly ; to divide the Licentiates, and ren- 
der them dependent on the Fellows. 
We thercfore hope, that the Judgment 
anticipated by Lord Mansfield, will foon 
be confirmed by his fucceffors; and that

of requitte learning and fkill, will have 
his right to be admitted into the Col- 
lege, tor ever eftablifhed, by a decifion 
in favour of the Licentiates in the pre- 
fent caute. 
After Mr. Ertkine had concluded his 
‘very ingenious and eloquent {peech, Mr. - 
‘Gibbs was next heard on the fame fide; 
but he had not proceeded far, before the 
objection of Dr. Stauger’s having ap- 
plied for examination to the comitia mi- 
nora, initead of the comitia majora, was 
advanced and fuftained by the Court, as 
a flay to farther proceedings, till an ap- 
plication to the latter had been made. 
This, we underftand, has fince been made 
to the comitia majora by the fame gen- 
tleman, who has again been refuled exs 
amination for admithon into the college. 
We are informed, that the caufe will, 
therefore, be again brought on during the 
next term,
