Regarding it also from an artistic point of view, - and this should not be totally neglected, - is it not better to do a little well rather than to do much poorly...

The Vindex would do better if it confined itself to matters of interest to the school, instead of discussing the "Mode of Electing a Pope" and kindred subjects; and if it did not try to be very funny. As a rival of the Burlington...
