ARCTIC EXPEDITION.- The Arctic expedition under the supervision of Dr. F. A. Cook, an old explorer with Peary, will leave New York, June 30, returning the middle of September. A party is now forming from Harvard. All professors and students of geology and botany, etc., will have ample opportunity for scientific research. The hunting and fishing are unequalled. The temperature varies from 35 to 69 degrees, seldom going below freezing point. We shall be glad to furnish any information that may be desired...

South Middle College will probably be torn down this summer, and when this old dormitory is gone there will be only about fifty rooms on the campus that will be within the reach of the man of ordinary means.
