...exclusive right to it is not known. While we dislike to be continually complaining of the mismanagement which is infallibly shown in some quarters, we think it is time to draw the line. Again and again has that sparring room been the scene of boxing exhibitions between outsiders; outsiders whose antecedents it might be well for our anti-professional faculty to investigate. If the gymnasium, or any part of it, was built for such men, to the exclusion of the students of this university, we suppose it is all right, and we should be thankful that we are permitted...
...college are not the best of friends. As is known to us all, the two have undertaken to light the yard ever since Harvard was first established. The result of this double contract is that at times, during certain nights of each month, the yard is not lighted. Whose fault is it?

The most prominent gentlemen in their several departments are lending their best efforts to the success of the course, and the readings already given...
When men want a few specially fine cigars they go to HUBBARD, THE CAMBRIDGE APOTHECARY, and tell him so. He then sells them some. He also has for sale excellent banjo strings, and violin strings and bridges for those melodious instruments. He would recommend to those "Upon whose chins hath scarce appeared the uncertain prophecy of a beard," that they buy of him an Engstrom razor, or one of those made by LeCoultre. They are of the finest steel and keenest edge...
