...genuine "no popery riot" has occurred at Oxford. The facts are these: On a Saturday night near the end of February, a dignified emissary of the papal court, and the accredited representative of the Romish propaganda of the university, Mr. Grissell, who is a graduate of Brasenose, and is said to have been making converts in that college, visited the rooms of his prospective followers, and had just seated himself for "a quiet rubber" with a few men from other colleges, when they were serenaded by a large portion of the college in the quadrangle below, amid cries...
