...Globe.At this theatre, Miss Agnes Ethel has been acting in M. Sardou's drama of her own name, to large and appreciative audiences. Of the play little need be said. The plot is decidedly old, but none the less interesting. The impersonation of Agnes demands the beauty and grace of person, the purity and loftiness of bearing, which Miss Ethel so easily gives to it. Although unequal to the passages of tragic emotion, these are so few that the lady's weakness in those parts leaves but little impression on the mind. Her greatest success is achieved in the first...
...they were very strong. To tell the truth, the Goody did say something the next morning about "thim nasty empty bottles" - "nasty" to her, I fear, because they were empty - and the broken glass trodden into the carpet. And as I think the matter over, I remember that Jones said something about its not being right to allow somebody to go to bed alone; that somebody chased Jones around the room, and finally threw a boot at his head as he disappeared through the door.

We are told in it that they have a college band, but it is nowhere said, as in most of our other exchanges, that they propose to enter a crew for the next regatta. Perhaps the most entertaining piece is the advertisement informing students that Hall and Hume still sell their unequalled Catawba wine at $2 per gallon...
...Gray Engravings, in the last number of your paper, the writer referred to my proposed scheme of photographing the collection. His statements were, I believe, correct, excepting in one point which nearly concerns the publishers; and for their sake I make this correction. The photographs, it was said, were to be on sale at a book-store in Cambridge; they may be, but not through College authority. Messrs. Osgood & Co. issue the photographs in their own style and at their own price, and sell them through any dealer they please; but in return for this they furnish the College with...
