Appleton Chapel was filled to its utmost capacity last evening, many people being obliged to stand. Rev. Phillips Brooks occupied the pulpit, and delivered an extremely interesting address upon a text taken from the first chapter of John-God said: "I am the light of the world, I am the light of anture."

Mr. Dodge's essay, "What is a Sonnet?" is the best piece of work in this number of the Monthly. The writer examines the various forms in which the sonnet has appeared, traces...
