ciation, and no students refused because of

the first step towards duplicity and fraud, duty
alone will be the Polar Star taught; and no
Yankee drumming, for students, need be ex
pected, nor no beggars employed by this Col
lege.

ground between the hastily written news items, crude

the ponderous Tome of the historian, written long aftoi

pies a large space in tjietr jrnges. Every movement Is
closely criticised, wind tier of friend or of foe, and all

from two of jts most pupulsr contributors, give a more
intelligible and reliable account of tlic movements of the
great belligerents that can elsewhere tie found.
