THIS is the Student's edition, corresponding to the "History of the Middle Ages," published in the same form. The whole work is compressed into one by no means unwieldy volume, of very clear type, the only omissions being certain parts of the less important remarks, and most of the notes printed at the foot of the pages. Altogether it will be found to be a very convenient edition, and hardly inferior, in point of matter, to the larger...
...last, the body may be kept in Cambridge, the mind inevitably wanders from the printed page to catch the gorgeous hues of that almost tropical picture with which New England compensates her sons, once a year, for the dreary length of her inhospitable winter.

And this applies to the class as a whole, and not to those few who in their own or partial friends' opinion have literary ability.

Always, taken as a whole, the same despised and timorous race, the additional step of classification shows that the same old percentages likewise recur, A' and B' stepping into the relative places of A and B with the greatest regularity. Levison I' Evy succeeds to the same seat at the same "swell" table which Montairon Von Aaron, the now popular Sophomore, occupied last year; smiles as sweetly, shakes as many hands, pays the same delicate attention to influential upper-class men, and, in general, follows the lead...
