’Twas night—no sound was heard
around the classic walls of the Fears
House, save the unceasing beating
of the rain upon the window panes.

and Astronomy when suddenly
some one enters|with a drum—an
instrument whi<h always has a ten

music in the nudent’s soul and
those present immediately began to
serenade a transient boarder, ot the
Hayseed dran.atic company, to
whom the Fates had assigned such
dangerous quarters. He lay in the

under some circumstances, what ef
fect such exclamations have upon
the innocent student; and the band,
feeling exhausted from their effort,
and thinking that cool night air and
refreshing rain might soothe their
minstrel spirit, immediately leave
the hall before the newly invited
guest arrives. They wander about
un the streets, heeding not the rain or
mud; but feeling refreshed, they de
