lion on Industry, which was listened to
with !?rcat attention. The most nrnmlncnt i
fonture of the evening was an way hy
Mr. Lcller, upon the Democratic party.
Mr. Lcller proved himself well informed
upon his subject, and although his senti

question: Arc Trade Unions beneficial?
was discussed in n lively manner.
"Economy and Kekohm." Some of
the students are circulating a paper, en.

place a cannon in the campus, and tire it
otf. Ii was an unworthy cause, so it only
made a little noise, (so they say.) We are

tamper with our good nature.
George McLean, who so long had
charge of the University building, has
come back and resumed his old position.

The Regents li'ive given bonds for the
purpose of procuring guns for the mili

this winter in the way of bearing some of
the best lecturers in the country. The
Lincoln Lecture Association have pre
pared a well selected list of persons who

provided they can be persuaded to come
so far west.
The able uianageiiiont of the Com.

the attestation of those who have experi
enced the comforts of a well regulated ho
tel will be unanimous in praise of the
Commercial.
The Stittc Journal gives us words of en
couragement, in the way of passing n neat
compliment upon our appearance. 'Tis

from there, and the Normal may feel
proud when we tell them, that many who
played prominent parts in the Philo
mathean, are now leading memcrs in the
University Union.
