...series. By this plan, the friends of each college are sure to see one of the games played on their own grounds, and so, of course, more interest is excited; besides, a more extended intercourse between the members of the two colleges is thereby promoted, and this surely ought to have a good effect in turning the spirit of bitter enmity, which too often exists, into a feeling of generous rivalry...

...word ought to be said about each of this issue, but my space will only allow me to mention Marc Antonio's exquisitely graceful Cleopatra. We have almost Raphael himself here, for Marc Antonio was thoroughly imbued with his spirit, and worked under his eye.

...fare is poor and insufficient at $4 per week. It may be said that prices are much lower one hundred and fifty miles back in the country than near a large city. This is true; but it must also be considered that a club of three hundred men ought to obtain board at a much cheaper proportional rate than a club of seventy men, and that a professional steward would be able to arrange the wholesale importation of provisions from the country on a much larger scale than an undergraduate whose time for the business is, of course, limited...
