Excerpt from The Princeton Review: July, 1854 On turning to the life of the late Rev. Mr. Bickersteth, we find that though he left grammar-school for a place in the post office at the age of fourteen, and never returned to his studies, but was occupied in business till his thirtieth year, yet, when at that period he determines to enter the ministry, he simply pro poses to get a letter to the Bishop of Norwich from J. J. Gurney, or another person both of whom have considerable inżuence with him - and to go to him in about a fortnight, state my plans, and ask him if he can ordain me. Accordingly, on the introduction of the good Quaker, he had an interview with the Bishop, who, after dwelling on the importance of a University education, and that it could only be dispensed with in particular cases, prescribed to him a year and a half's study with a clergyman. To this Mr. Bickersteth (then in legal bu siness) pleaded that he had been accustomed to read a chapter frequently in the Greek Testament, and had given attention to other suitable studies, upon which the Bishop at once struck off more than six months of the probation; and finally ordained him in less than half of the term that remained. His examination consisted in stating some of the great doc trines Of the Bible, translating the Greek Testament, Grotius, and a Latin article, and writing a Latin and also an English theme. To meet the existing deficiencies, the report proposes a dis tinct school of theology in the University, through which candi dates for the ministry, after two examinations in the other de part neuts, should be required to pass.
