...made such an offer (in its nature hardly flattering to himself). in the light of the evidence on the subject it would seem more probable that the tempter was an imposter making these advances under the guise of a Harvard man, with the deliberate purpose of subsequently making capital therefrom, than that Harvard athletics were responsible...
...Harvard, and foot-ball is once more the topic of interest as is usual at this period of the year. Friends of the eleven have had their hopes slightly dampened by the play of the team in the Wesleyan game, and the injury of Hodge, end rush, resulting therefrom. It is decidedly doubtful whether or not Hodge will be able to resume his place in the Harvard game. His loss will materially weaken the team, as his playing has been a decided improvement over last year. Riggs, a new man this year, has been filling his place the past...
...night of the 5th prox., it behooves all who can afford the slight expense to don a uniform and augment the number of students in line. Confessedly we do not take part in the parade for political motives but merely for the sake of the enjoyment derived therefrom.

This recent increase in the means of the Observatory, Prof. Pickering states, will ultimately permit a corresponding...
...Harvard must earn their own living after they leave the college. If they look askance upon politics, it is because politics does not offer them a living. He would be an ill-advised youth who would rush into the political arena in the vain hope of honorably wrestling therefrom a competence sufficient to maintain him in his early years of struggle. Where would he begin? At the bottom of the ladder; in the common council, perhaps. There he would receive no remuneration. Nor as an alderman would he receive pay for his duties, at least, not in honorable fashion...
