...number of students who are not reached, as the phrase goes, by present religious influences, and the mistrustful feeling which this fact occasions in the minds of some, the Society hopes to remove at once the suspicion and its cause by establishing an institution which shall be a powerful organ of religious influence in the College. That the existing Episcopal churches cannot provide for this need is obvious. St. John's, which was intended partly for the students of the University, is too far; and of Christ Church it is to be remarked that no parish church, diverted from...

On cutting further, streaks of a simple fluid were discovered, coursing towards the arteries. This phenomenon occasioned much dispute for a time, but it was finally...
...Editor-in-chief will be given with every subscription. No members of exclusive college societies will be eligible for editors. The paper will consider itself "the mouth-piece of society," whatever that may mean; and it is not true that it is to be conducted as the official organ of the Janitors. They will only be allowed to contribute occasional items...
