...meeting of the Sophomore company of this corps was held at the Gymnasium on the evening of the 22d. Several names were added to the roll, including members of other departments of the University, and the meeting adjourned until Monday next, Oct. 29, at the same time and place. It has been ascertained that Peabody breech-loading rifles can be obtained from the State in exchange for the old muzzle-loaders, now in use by the corps, upon the proper requisitions being made.

OWING to the large size of the classes in college, and the extreme narrowness of the means of ingress, a rush takes place every morning at the Chapel door. Now a rush is certain to please most of the members of the youngest class, and many of the members of the class next in point of age; but a rush is distasteful to the majority of the students, and is especially so if it involves a possibility of not getting into one's seat in time. The remedy is very simple, and, consisting as it does in merely unlocking...
