...thus lost to the world. So it happens that men of the present day are as much indebted to the old masters as any before them; and were it not for the museums of Europe, in which their masterpieces are happily preserved, it would be difficult to say where we could turn for any art education. But these, also, are unaccessible to the mass of Americans, and the question naturally arises, Where are they to look for like advantages? The answer to this question, it seems to me, involves the only new element we can now foresee in the future...

...scanty number of Exchanges this week may, perhaps, be accounted for by the fact that many Colleges are having a short vacation at about this time. The Dartmouth Anvil has, however, made its appearance, and we may say, has come out strong, for it growls and shows its teeth at Amherst and Harvard in a most savage manner. Its scathing criticism on an account of the Boating Convention in our last issue had for its object, no doubt, the utter annihilation of the Magenta. Still, we feel in duty bound to present No. 7 to our readers, and will here...

...conclude, in what we have said it has not been intended to slight the claims of the gymnasium, but simply to say a word for another kind of exercise, which is a favorite with many, but by others is looked on as of little importance...
