Blsbeofoll asleep anb slept nigh unto midnight; and when
ho uwoko ho saw that ho was alone.
Up to present writing, only ono llvo and two dead
bodies have boon brought to the dissecting table. As tho
news become' more widely spread Unit wo have a Medical
school, business will become more lively.
Prof. Sherman bus been favored with a call to Elmlra
Oollogo N. Y. Wo learn thattho inducements aro great,
but wo sincerely wish that ho may not accept, as his ser.
vices aro Indispensable in our own University.
It is said that organs have been known for 2000 years.
If any ono don't believe it, let him examine the Chapol
organ. Ono of tholGoologlcal students declared that ho
found a fossil of tho CnrboiilferoiiB Ago incru&ted on the
keys.
"Pshaw! that is nothing but an old born" was the re
mark mnclo by a dlsapointed student, who went half a
mllo a few evenings ago to see a lino houso burn. This
was not exactly heartless cruelty, but ridiculous unthouht
fit In ess.
.Even a Prof, will occasionally descend from his throne
of dignity aud get off a most ignominious pun. Prof, in
Latin class "What does "si" connect? Unprepared stu
dent I can't toll just now Professor. Prof. Then you
don't "si" tho point.

Our old compositor, "Mac," becaino'dissatirfied with
his situation in tho Studknt ofllce nndj was "mutually"
discharged. Paul Clark has taken on a part of tho de
parted's mantle and W. 0. Knight the remainder. The
boys propose to do tho work in first class shape.
A unique vengeance The Union girls in revenge for
the tyranny of tho strongor "sect," have at last wrested
from their adversaries the sceptre of power t. e. the slato.
How they will wield it is a question for the future. That
they carry it is a mournful truth.
Tho wrestling match of Freshmen and Sophs for April,
is on tho following Essay subjects. Decay of popular su
pcrstlou, Petrarca, History of the Inquisition, Tho Moors

ThcfAgo of Anne, Roalism, The Stylo of the Authorized
version of tho Bible.
John Drydcn, who is now in the employment of a bank
ing house in Central City paid the classic halls a visit ro
ceutly. Banking being a rich business John has allowed
his pretty face to becomo enriched with a most exuberant
growth of beard. Too "utterly utter" John, it disguises
you beyond recognition.
Wiggins' great storm did uot como in February neither
did it come in March, but lie and Vennor aro now confer
ring, concerning a gonulno "shako up" for April. They
have not as yet agreod upon tho dato, but for a certainty,
tlmo
will not restrict themselves to the small limit
given to former prognostications.
Quito a romarknblo incident occurred in the library ro
ccntly. A studont pondered over his French lesson for
soveral hours, and, not succeeding very delightfully be
camo despondent and deliberately walked to tho slovo
opend tho door, and committed his whole set of French
books to tho flames. "Kovengo is sweet."
Freshman Physiology class: Lesson, Nervous system.
Prof. Tho' Nervous system Is wonderfully complicated
beyond tho scope of human conception. Through tho
almost miraculous agency of this intricate intermediator
we arc lead to a consclcuccness of sensations; but were i
not for an incomprehensible mysterious something still
more infinitely paramount, termed the living and distinct
soul of man, this consctcnceness could not be awakened.
Peroration: Upon.this, by many, is based tho immor
tality of the soul. Froshioirrclovanll, interrupts)"
Prof, are there any nerves in a wart?
Spring is come; the more vertical rays of tho suu havo
loosed bleak winters ley fetters and tho babbling brooks
go howling to tncbcn; the air is soft and mild aud the
earth j softer. Tho small boy bogineth to pull off his
hard favored and weather-beaten shoes and rummage
through the haymows in search of hen-eggs. The fashon
able girl packs away her comfortable furs and ventures
out in more tropical costume. Ere long the sweet hum
ming of the bees and tho melody of tho song bird will
gladden the ears of the lone and disconsolate. Sweet How
ers will bloom and give their fragrance to the enraptured
air; tho green grass will burst forth from its cold narrow
cells and tho hungry herds will bllo it; and and and
Hero tho sweet muse left us forover.
PniMKii: Open j'ourbook now and stand near my side
and you may read about this chapel. What, a chapel in
a college? Yes, did you never hear of tho like beforo?
No. How glad I am to learn this. Do all good students go
to chapel? Yes, but all that go to chapel aro not good.
Why do they all open their mouths so wldo? They are
singing. Do you think they could sing so well with their
mouths closed? Somo could. Now they arc through sing
ing and the man on the stage is reading a lesson in the
largo book. Can ho see the boys and girls in tho last rows
next to the door? 0 yes, that is not hard to do when one
tries. See those girls in tho last row laughing, is the lea
son funny? You arc wrong this time, they aro not laugh
ing only smiling ,whou they laugh the man reading will
stop and speak to them. It is wrong to laugh and talk in
chapel. When you grow large, like those boys and girls,
nnd go to a largo school you must sit near the front.
That will do for this time, closo your book.
