...phraseology he forcibly reminds us of our own humorist, Petroleum V. Nasby, and, in fact, a more elaborate parallel might be drawn between the letters of the Confederate postmaster and this ostensible attack on innate ideas. But, not to make the analogy cruelly walk on five legs, it is enough to say that in his feuilleton Locke has adopted the plain unvarnished language of his prototype. But we must not be misled by the apparent openness of his style. While clear as a spring he is deep as the ocean, and we must read and reread, when the simplicity will...

But it may be said that only regular customers can expect to obtain especial favors, and that students are not included in this class.

...boating system is drawing to a close, and hereafter we shall have but to chronicle its practical workings. The past week has seen the completion of a new boat-house, with bridge, float, and necessary appurtenances. The new house joins the old. The lower story is spacious enough to accommodate all the club boats, and each club has a range of rests for itself. The upper story will eventually be partitioned for dressing-rooms. And now the crews are commencing work which will decide whether the handkerchiefs at the front shall be light blue or crimson, dark blue or orange...
