...explain his sudden delinium on the night of his room-mate's disappearance, I do not know. Supernatural visions there are, unexplained and inexplicable. Of course, one can call it insanity, if one wishes. It is a strange delusion, too, that the poor fellow should imagine himself to be doing a large importing business at Buenos Ayres. But he is kept out doors as much as possible, always with the attendants in sight. It is a small but well-furnished and pleasant house at Manumet Point, near Plymouth, where he lives...

Its first number has placed it distinctly above the average run of such papers, and it promises to prove no despicable rival to the Athenoeum. What the causes are that have led to its foundation we do not know; but its founders have, we understand, already gained valuable experience upon the other paper, and are, we do not doubt, fully competent to carry on successfully the work they have begun. We expect the Argo to take rank with the Acta, the Spectator, the Amherst Student, the Vassar Miscellany, and others...
