WW is pleased that JCH agrees that Prince Albert is the fittest person for Chancellorship: 'all people here fall in with the plan, except the Johnians who have put forwards Lord Powis, and must wait to see what he will do'. WW is glad that no one thought of Lord Lyndhurst: 'Indeed I do not see how they could, after (not to speak of other grounds) the atrocious bad faith of the heads of the party to their followers'. WW gives a brief history of an impoverished Trinity sizar, John Cartman, who WW sent away on finding his 'character and conduct not good'. He has subsequently become a private tutor and WW hopes he has mended his ways.
