...suggest the omission of brevities that refer to peculiarly sacred subjects, unless the paper aims to be a religious weekly, in which case other of the matter it contains is particularly out of place. We would also suggest that less space be devoted to advertising their "Italian Signor," whose chief duty seems to be to "pronounce this and that picture a masterpiece...
...Lampy, only it is Lampy grown a little older. And if, perhaps, we miss a little of the bloom, it is easy to console ourselves by the thought that there is more strength in place of it. The Spectator, too, is well represented by some of the men whose work in the book of "College Cuts" is so singularly meritorious. Their connection with the paper will serve to counteract the local tendencies that might otherwise have been feared, and will be a sufficient guarantee for its cosmopolitan character.

It is noticeable that those whose verses are systematically worst are most noisy in carping and cavilling at the envied superiority of their betters and in disclaiming all partisanship in favor of what they mockingly call the French jingles. There is a college in New York which does not hear "the babbling of the brooks...
