...published here was the "Harvard Register," on whose editorial board were Ex-President Felton of Harvard and Hon. Robt. C. Wintrop. After a brief career it was succeeded by the "Collegian," which was made famous by contributions from the brilliant pen of Oliver Wendell Holmes. Then came the "Harvardiana," whose life even the efforts of a man who was destined to be one of the greatest literary men of our day, James Russell Lowell, could not prolong beyond four years. The next to enter the arena was the "Harvard Magazine," one of whose first editors was America's greatest preacher...
...have had greater influence on college opinion." This is certainly flattering. In 1827 we find that the "Harvard Register" appeared as a monthly with several contributors who have since attained prominence. This was short-lived and in 1830 the "Colleyian" appeared with Dr. Holmes as a contributor. Then came "Harvardiana" and then from 1854 to 1864 was published the "Harvard Mayazine." In 1866 appeared the "Advocate" and in 1873 the "Mayenla" afterwards the "Crimson." It is interesting to note that in 1860 the "University Quarlerly" was begun in New Haven, the arm of which was to represent and the various...
...George S. Hillard, R. C. Winthrop, and James Freeman Clarke condescended to edit and contribute to the Harvard Register, Pere; when Edward Everett was editor of the Lyceum; when Holmes and Motley wrote for the Collegian; and when such a poet as Mr. Lowell used to compose verses for Harvardiana. And now, says Snodkins, not a single famous name on any of our college papers! We are very witty now-a-days, and we write the prettiest of verses and the staidest and wisest of editorials, but where can be found a grain of that Attic salt that flavors...
...death the next paper was the Harvard Register, among the editors of which were President Felton, George S. Hillard, and Robert C. Winthrop. In 1830 appeared the Collegian, notable as containing the contributions of Oliver Wendell Holmes, then a student in the Law School. The Collegian was succeeded by Harvardiana, on which James Russell Lowell first employed his pen. In 1854 appeared the Harvard Magazine, with Phillips Brooks among its editors; and this was followed in 1866 by the Advocate...
...here. Generally speaking, there is very little love lost between us. (There are one or two brilliant exceptions, of course, but I reserve my accounts of them till Christmas vacation.) They take extraordinary pains to jeer at us and snub us at every opportunity. They fill their paper - "The Harvardiana" - with slurs and poor jokes on ours. But I think "The Tea-Table and University News-Letter" can hold its own with their wretched periodical. There's a dear little Freshman across the entry who keeps me in tobacco and matches in the most obliging manner. He's the best...
