...points are many, and they would at once be revealed by a careful analysis both of its course of thought and of its general style. While purporting to be a defence of Harvard students, it is manifestly a protest against certain religious opinions, and a slur cast, in one case upon the expressions, in the other upon the doctrinal views, of two eminent Christian men. The daily papers, Messrs. Editors, have quite sufficiently misrepresented the doctrinal views of the recent candidate for the bishopric of Massachusetts, and we need not re-echo their hasty judgments on the soundness of those...
...with the minutiae as well as the outlines of history gets no higher mark (or perhaps not so high) than another who has confined himself to a syllabus. But granted that marks are too trivial a matter for a grave argument like this, there is another aspect of the case which is all important.

Does the Republican say that in the rule concerning the composition of " University or representative " crews, the word " representative " is applicable to Freshman crews? Then must it also maintain the absurdity that any " candidate for the degrees A. B., Ph. B., " &c. can row in a Freshman race...
