Archbishop's speech questioned over University tests bill
The Archbishop of Canterbury is urged to read the Coleridge Universities Tests bill before claiming it undermines Christian teaching. A Cambridge deputation notes explicit protections for religious teaching remain in the bill, including provisions on degrees and lay professorships, and a reserved establishment for Church of England worship within universities. A Oxford convocation approves petition against abolition of tests with concerns over notice and discourse.

The Church News and Ecclesiastical Notices
The Ritual Commission report drew skepticism over its potential legal weight. Bishopric vacancies increased as Barbadoes and five other sees remained unfilled. Cambridge name Morton and Moulton as top senior wranglers in a tech of fellowships. Archdeacon Freeman urged Exeter clergy to borrow on Church-rate security amid rates debates. Chelmsford court actions questioned Church-rate validity, with expenses borne by churchwardens. Hereford now uneasily awaits Canon Atlay's appointment to bishopric.
