duplicity, begging, fashion or foolery in any
shape whatever.
Throe Rules will lie rigidly enforced: Ist,

ciation, ami no students refused because of
being graduates.
An effort merely to please a people, being
the first stop 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.

r IUI E great and important event* —Religious, Political,
JL ill "l Military—now agitating the nation* of the Old
World, give to these Publications an interest and value
they never before possessed. They occupy a uiiddlr
ground between the hastily written news item*, crude
speculations, and flying rumor* of the newspaper, and
the ponderous Tome of the historian, written long after
tlie living interest in tlie facts lie record* shall have
passed away. The progress of the War in the East occu
pies a large spare in their pages. Every movement is
closely criticised, w ind her of friend nr of foe, anil ail
short-comings fearlessly pointed out. The letters from
Hie Crimea and from the Baltic in Black wood's Magazine,
(roin two of its most popular contributors, give a more
intelligible mid reliable account of the movements of tin,
great belligerents that can elsewhere be found.
These Periudicals ably represent tlie three grest politi
cal parties of Great Britain—Whig, Tory, mid Radical
hut politics forms only one feature of their cliuracter.
As Organs of I lie most profound w riters on Science, Idle
