...they are looked down on by all the other classes. Perhaps, however, one of the reasons of their unpopularity is the fact that they come here no longer as boys, and are not willing to be treated as such.

The prize oration on Carlyle is certainly original and thoughtful, though we cannot commend its style. The editors of the Lit. should be careful about quotations. Horace and Coleridge both suffer in this number...
