...boats occupying rests which have not been paid for will be sold at auction on Saturday, May 3, at the boat-house. There will be five or six six-oared boats, and a large number of others, including single and double lapstreaks. The hour of the sale has been fixed...

...their wisdom. But the editors are forgiving; they return good for evil. The author of "Literary Ruskinism" will be pleased to learn that his article was especially praised; but he may not be inclined to adopt their advice, and drop Greek at the end of this year. This number of the Miscellany in some respects is not so brilliant as the preceding, but there is less to censure, less, too, perhaps, to wonder at. Some of its exchanges it treats very cavalierly, but for the most part its criticism is fair. The "Department of the Alumnae" we hesitate either...

Still, we feel in duty bound to present No. 7 to our readers, and will here...

...Yale Lit. for April has been received. In accordance with its custom of publishing in every number a love or ghost story, it furnishes this time one of the former class, "That Freshman," better than the average which are published in its columns, although open to much censure. The plot, of course, is not elaborate, and the characters are not so distinctly drawn as we could wish. Regarding the character of its sentiment, many different opinions are expressed. The chief fault, by no means an unusual one in such compositions, is the fact that the conversation is all carried...
