Boating at Princeton seems to have fulfilled the prophecy, and to have died a natural death, Though last year it refused to be strangled, it has now, taking one consideration with another, probably made up its mind that the best thing to do is to gracefully yield up the ghost. The college, though fully appreciating the strenuous exertions of last year's crew, are quite willing to cease contesting where we are bound always to be the "tail-piece."-[Princetonian...
...multitudes to witness their play. Now some of the children were painted red (for such are the rules of the game) thereby adding greatly to the effectiveness of the exhibition.

Of all things, we have a right to demand that, if the motto of the college, Christo et Ecclesiae, mean anything, it should not come...
...yellow with white trimmings, and generally beautiful, one of the remnants of past ages (appropriate, some have called it), like so many other of the old standard houses that one finds in Cambridge. However imposing such an exterior may be, the interior is wrapped in mystery for the student mind. The building is the headquarters of the "Annex." but who knows more? We pass the noble structure with eyes on every window and uncovered heads, and come next to Garden street and the Cambridge common. Here are the Soldiers' Monument, (the figure of which never...
