...western Europe at the opening of the nineteenth century, the lecturer spoke of the first two exponents of romanticism in Russia: the historian Karamsin Joukovsky. The former wrote the first Russian sentimental novels-among these being "Poor Lizzie," over which contemporaries have shed many tears. The latter was the real funnel through which romanticism invaded Russian poetry. He was the real precursor of Russia's greatest poet-Poushkin...
...last year of Peter's reign the Academy of Sciences was established. The first scientists were Germans, who had no part in advancing Russian literature. The first real litterateur was Prince Cantamile. He wrote the first Russian verses-mainly satires directed against those who opposed the reforms of Peter the Great. The next great writer was Lomonossov. Abandoning the life of a fisherman he fled to Moscow, and later to St. Petersburg, where he obtained his education.

Professor Farnam has added his testimony to this and the real condition of things has thus first been brought to the notice of many. Yale has but $7000 annually available for book purchases, against $43,000 at Columbia and $15,000 at Harvard, and it will be impossible to hold our own in Library growth or to meet the requirements unless...
...that to which Dean Briggs's letter refers this morning, in terms which we believe will be a much more severe rebuke to the one who is guilty of the dishonorable deed than any words of censure from us. Without discussing the question whether there was any real humor in subjecting to annoyance and embarrassment an honored and respected officer of the University, we appeal to every student to let his contempt be known for conduct so insolent and so unworthy of Harvard men.
