in the College at the time being 648, and 71, respectively. Your Lordship will naturally expect me to express my opinion on the relative merits of the two sides of this educational controversy.
I do so with some diffidence as regards one of its aspects, for I am wholly ignorant of Chinese. But I may say, after a careful perusal of all the papers, that the weight of argument on the first main point at issue seems to be distinctly on the side of Dr. Eitel. My opinion is reinforced by the authorities which he quotes, but before arriving at a decision, Your Lordship will doubtless think it well to consult other competent authorities in England. On the second and third main points, there can, I think, be little doubt that Dr. Eitel's view is right.
