A venture in a field of college literature never before tried is a daring thing indeed; but if success does not attend the efforts of the editors of the paper whose first issue appeared yesterday, it will not be because their efforts are undeserving of success.

Some myrmidon of the Inland 'Revenue discovered this circumstance, and a few weeks ago Mr. Brantingham received a windy rigmarole of a legal summons to attend at the Vice-Chancellor's Court, and show cause why he should not forfeit the sum of pound 20 in that he did 'in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and seventy-five to wit, at Christ Church, Oxford, wear and use Armorial Bearings, for the wearing and using...
