It is a question, however, whether the Tent-maker of Naishapur can be so systematically interpreted throughout.

...England's greatest divines, was taken advantage of by many, not only of the students but of the residents of Cambridge. Canon Farrar possesses a peculiar faculty for holding the attention of students, and his influence upon them is always very marked. His recognized scholarly attainments lend a deep significance to his words. His sermon last evening in Appleton Chapel was received with great attention and excited a profound interest in all who ere fortunate enough to hear it. We trust that the students may enjoy an opportunity of hearing the gentleman lecture, we hardly need to add that should...
