After a prayer by Dr. Peabody, the oration was given by Mr. Simmons. It was listened to with evident attention and interest by the audience, which attention and interest the effort certainly deserved. The choice of poet and of odist by the graduating class was not less judicious than that of orator, for both Mr. Grant's poem and Mr. Jackson's ode were fully up to the Class-Day standard.

The subject of Mr. Burgwyn's article is of so much interest to collegians, that we thought...
Owing to the injury of Mr. Perry, Moody went to the catcher's position, Harrison to short stop, Wheeler to centre, and Lynn to right field. The absence of Perry was severely felt both in this and the succeeding game, as was shown by the utter demoralization of the nine, and their poor playing - simply from the need of an experienced captain...
