...rule, good, - much better than that given him at his last visit. Mrs. Barry's Portia was a quiet, lady-like performance, erring, if it erred at all, on the side of mildness. The characters of Bassanio and Antonio were also well sustained, and Mr. Maguinnis deserves much credit for his rendering of Launcelot Gobbo. The mounting of the play was perhaps a little better than usual, and quite outshone the venerable scenery that has done duty at the Boston Theatre as long as any one can remember, and probably a good deal longer. The performance was generally very pleasant...
...batting of the Mutuals in the last two innings was too much for our amateurs, and we were obliged to content ourselves with having fought a good fight. The playing of our out-fielders was up to their highest standard, and the rest of the Nine did themselves credit. Tyler reassumed his old position on third base; and, considering his recent recovery from illness, played very well. Hooper made four base hits...

It could even communicate its sensations in articulate sounds, and the very...
...Freshmen, we believe, belongs the credit of showing the first signs of returning life. Early in the season they originated the plan of having a tournament of the Freshmen Nines of all New England colleges. At the Convention held at the Massasoit House, Springfield, April 5, this plan was fully developed and established. The six colleges, represented by their delegates, decided that there should be such a tournament, and that it should take place at Springfield, July 14; each Nine playing with every other Nine. The tournament, coming to a close on the day of the Regatta, will furnish another...
