...your columns with a subject which, if old, is not yet exhausted; indeed the carelessness with which the question of the possibility of establishing the said club has been allowed to drop, and the rapidity with which curiosity as regards it has evaporated would seem to prove the little interest in it, though there is, I think, deep interest below the surface of all the stumbling-blocks that impede its supporters. The most serious is, as I pointed out in a previous letter, the absence of any special reason strong enough to supply motive power to keep the club going...

These corrections were perfectly correct and justifiable, but there is a question about the propriety of his intimating that the lecturer was "sadly in error." The latter is thus brought into a controversy in which he takes no interest and which is wholly out of his province The remarks which he made in the philosophy course from which our first correspondent derived his "facts," were based on the highest authority, such as the journal of the Linnean Society and the proof-sheets of "The Autobiography of Darwin," the latter...

The following complimentary notices of the Harvard Herald - the predecessor of the CRIMSON - may be of interest...
...mighty scarce in Princeton. Our record has degenerated, until now we are at the very bottom of the list of colleges. This fact, in addition to the cold water thrown on field sports by the supporters of base-ball and lacrosse, makes doubly difficult the effort to revivify the interest in the sport. We have no men of great promise, and if we do send a good team to New York next spring, it will be developed from new and untried material...
