...pervaded throughout, in short, by the particular weakness inherent in the author, which has been all along suppressed by whole-some criticism, or the fear of it, only to break out when the strength of his reputation renders him superior to the reviewers. But Kenelm Chillingly shows neither of these faults. It has all the vigor and novelty of a first attempt, and all the gracefulness and ease which only come after the writing of many books. In its hero Bulwer seems to be thoroughly at home, taking as much delight in him as any reader will do, and through...
...return match with the King Philips was played at East Abington last Saturday. Though the fielding of neither side was as sharp as in the previous game, the positions of the two Nines seemed just reversed; the King Philips made no headway against Hooper's pitching, while the Harvards took hold of their pitching from the first.

We understand that there is some probability that they will be given up next year, as being both unnecessary and unsatisfactory...

Usually a criticism upon any study in college, or upon any particular part of it, - either as relating to its usefulness or to the manner in which it is taught, - has to be stated in very general terms; if it is not so put, if anything specific is pointed out, the instructors in that branch are apt to feel that the criticism arises from personal dislike rather...
