It has been proposed in Bristol to erect an appropriate
memorial to the late Miss Catherine Winkworth, the translator of the " Theologia Germanica," the " Lyra Germanica," and the constant friend of the higher education of women, by founding a Winkworth Scholarship, at some one of the schools for giving -this higher education,—a kind of tablet to her memory, which will certainly be more effectual, interesting, and beneficent, if not more enduring, than that which it is also proposed to erect in Bristol Cathedral. The sum required for these joint objects will be at least a thousand pounds, of which about half is already raised. It would be hard to propose a more useful project in itself, or a more fitting tribute to the memory of a refined and cultivated, as well as devoted friend of true sweet- ness and true light. Subscriptions to the "Catherine Wink- worth Memorial Fund" may be sent to the Clifton branch of the Bristol Old Bank.
