Whether the weather be favorable or not, however, one thing is certain, that the College will be overrun with visitors, as seldom before.

...between what is tragic, and what is merely gory. Again, though many of these tales are written with genuine vigor and dash, they should not be allowed to take precedence of the large field of light literature, dealing with more delicate and more polished themes. This field the Advocate seldom penetrates, and it might be cultivated with profit both to writers and to readers...
