...Magenta, some such remark as "Yale papers please copy"; or, "Courant and Record, here is an example which you will do well to follow." The Courant is especially vexed, and proposes to wait with Christian calmness for the hair-pulling which cannot be avoided after our second number. It also takes occasion to express the withering contempt with which the Courant, from its little pedestal, views the country colleges. "Feeling secure of the support of the only tribunal for which we have the least regard, the sympathy of the members of Yale College, we snap our fingers, as we have...
...only does this hold true in matter of studies, but also in our intercourse with men; for here lies a great field for education. How much valuable acquaintance do we lose by the restrictions of class and clique feeling! That this has in a measure been broken down of late is one of the most assuring signs of the future, and it is to be hoped that the absurdity and childishness of such distinctions will be erelong generally admitted...

...highest, is one at least which all who write are endeavoring to raise. Probably no issue, in all its articles, satisfies the undergraduate critic, and this same critic, when he writes, will do his best to excel that in which he so readily found faults. To the authors themselves, also, very few of their articles are satisfactory, and a second essay will very rarely be found inferior to the first...
