The Hulscan Prize at Cambridge University, is granted in pursuance

of the will of the Reverend JOHN HULSE, who directed certain rents and profits (now amounting to about IOW, yearly) to be paid to the author of the best " Dissertation," in English, on the general or particular Proofs of the Christian Religion, the candi- dates to be under the degree of Master of Arts. The subject for 1336 was, " How far the Miracles of our Saviour arc Typical of the Nature of the Christian Dispensation ;" and the successful candidate was Mr. JOHN MURRAY, of Edinburgh; whose essay displays more judgment in the treatment of his delicate subject than the Trustees did in setting the task.
