"To still the Memnonian music of Song's lisps" is quite delightful provided Mr. McLane has his tongue in his cheek. Otherwise--?

The case of the "Goodies" having been exhibited, the Advocate now turns its attention to the College Chapel, and the editorial in the present issue will bring the blush to many a clerical cheek. It appears that the editors go to chapel and are bored by uninteresting sermons. Clearly the Board of Preachers must be reorganized at once...
