...return match with the King Philips was played at East Abington last Saturday. Though the fielding of neither side was as sharp as in the previous game, the positions of the two Nines seemed just reversed; the King Philips made no headway against Hooper's pitching, while the Harvards took hold of their pitching from the first. Eustis made a home-run, and Annan, White, and Estabrooks two-base hits. In fact, the game was virtually won in the first inning; the Harvards making eight runs. The fielding in the seventh inning was decidedly loose; Hooper, by a throw...
...which appeared in the Magenta of May 16, although just to a certain extent, is rather too broad to pass by unnoticed. In order that the course may not appear in an unpropitious light to those who intend to elect it next year, justice demands that some corrections be made in the article in question. The subject of the elective embraces the elements of "Physical Geography, Meteorology, and Structural Geology." That the desired specimens of "metals, fossils, and rocks" cannot be introduced in two of these divisions is self-evident. For instruction in Physical Geography a fine globe, maps...
...rumored that gratuitous offers have been made by members of the Senior Class to place some English sparrows in the yard. Such a course would soon and effectually rid the trees of the pest.

It would be well for the Juniors, "by and with the advice and consent of the Faculty," to take precautions early, lest the Yard may present a similar sorry appearance on their Class...
...GRADUATE of Harvard University of some legal celebrity, addressing a deliberative assembly not long since, whilst urging the necessity of a sort of missionary bishop for the diocese of Massachusetts, made the declaration that the young men at Cambridge needed rousing up to serious religious thought, or they would be in danger of lapsing into rationalism and infidelity. Living in a country in which man is allowed to embrace such views as his conscience approves, it appeared ill-judged and not a little surprising, that a public speaker, having a strongly marked religious bias of his own, should thus express...
...generous views" loses vitality when the speaker is felt to be narrow-minded, and is suspected of seeking to cloak his own real ideas in wordy, philanthropic expression as to the necessities of the times! The students at Harvard have had much to stand from those cavillers who have made aspersions as to their want of religious ardor or interest, but in this respect, we think that the student of to-day is in no worse condition than his grandfather of the preceding century. There seems to have been in all times a disposition to rail at collegians for inattention...
