EDITORS DAILY CRIMSON.- The Advocate has unknowingly made a statestatement unfair to the proposed Literary Monthly. In perfect good faith, the Advocate stated that the English Department would consider both papers on an equal footing. We have since learned that the Monthly has a promise from three instructors which gives it an advantage, as in the selection of themes. We much regret this mistake; it arose from a misunderstanding on our part, and we hasten to correct...

...court, was once one of the largest in the town. Emanuel was built upon the site of a Dominican monastery, and in the strife between the King and the people became known and marked as a Puritan college. It is of this college, and its companion in the Puritan faith, Sidney Sussex, that Charles I said "They are the nurseries of Puritans." Oliver Cromwell graduated from Sydney Sussex, and the cast of his features taken after his death, of which our own Gore Hall possesses a copy, is kept here...
