Saunders's Newsletter denies, on authority, the story of Sir Edward
Sugden's imprisonment in a lunatic asylum. The only truth in the story is that he did visit the asylum.
The Oxford Chronicle of this day says- " We have heard from authority which we can rely on, that the Board re- cently appointed to test the orthodoxy of the sermon lately preached before the University, at Christ Church, by the Reverend Dr. Pusey, and demanded for this purpose by the Margaret Professor of Divinity, has separated without pronouncing any collective judgment; but each member sent in his own re- port. and the result, we are informed, is, that the Vice-Chancellor has ordered the Professor of Hebrew to be suspended from preaching before the University for two years."
Dr. Pasey has protested against this decision. He says that he has requested to be allowed a hearing, and that nothing has been pointed out to him in his sermon contrary to the formularies of the Church.
