...been made in regard to the catholicity which prevails here are beyond all cavil. Not only is it true that the College authorities studidiously avoid anything which might influence the religious opinions of a student, but the students themselves are not sharply divided by doctrinal lines, nor do they make their religion, when they have any, a barrier to separate them from others less correct than themselves. We often see the member of one denomination figuring as an earnest listener to the prayers and sermons of another; and those who are in any way remarkable for their strictness of life...
...deserves the highest praise; all his songs were encored, and his "business" throughout the play was carefully elaborated. Zerlina, the "pretty little dear," was capital, and Mr. French's scene in the bed-chamber was perhaps the most amusing bit of acting in the whole piece. Mr. Mackintosh's make-up as Lady Allcash was a triumph for Mr. Rothe and Mrs. Wilson, and in his duets with Fra Diavolo and Lord Allcash (Mr. Simmons) he obtained encores.

What then? Must we make our little...
Though transmittenda may be intrinsically of little value, yet the associations connected with them make the possessor of one prize it highly. With what interest in my Freshman year did I sound the sheathing in my room to ascertain the possibility of one being secreted behind it; how expectantly did I wait for the unceremonious entrance of one through my window. Many students have grown to consider them as their Penates, and look with disgust upon the destroying hands of the Goths and Vandals, namely, the College Carpenter, and a dealer in second-hand goods, who never leaves anything...
