This has always been a pleasant way of subscribing for the Crew, and we hope that a large audience may reward the efforts of those who have the matter in hand.

To those of our readers without the College, it is only necessary to add that these ballads, if obtained, should be forwarded to Professor FRANCIS J. CHILD, Cambridge, Mass.
