...urge immediate attention on the part of the students to the financial part of the statement, as something imperative. To spend two weeks at New London and leave the crew free from debt, four hundred dollars more must be had. The crew have so felt the necessity of ending the year without a debt that, as the statement explains, they have practiced the most rigid economy. The money spent has been for boats, a steam launch, and a rowing tank, which will be of permanent use to the Boat club in future years. No efforts have been spared to save...

DuBois delivered Grattan's 'Invective against Mr. Flood' in an effective manner. His gesticulation was particularly good. H. E. Burton spoke in an easy dignified manner, which left the impression of considerable reserve power. The next speaker, A. S. Wicks, caught the spirit of Webster's "Against Secession." but his voice lacked the power to give it adequate expression. C. M. Thayer gave an intelligent...
