...Philosophical Club is to be congratulated for its happy choice of lecturers in the course given under its auspices this winter. The last of the course, on the Philosophy of Carlyle, should not fail to draw out a large audience, in view of the recent death of the great apostle of sincerity.

The provision for having reserved seats in the gallery, by which the confusion and crowding of last year will be largely obviated, is also commendable. To conclude, we can only hope that the students themselves, by many entries...
