Our societies are booming now, so to speak, and their audiences arc such that they aro obliged to take chairs from tho recitation rooms on tho third floor. They need more chairs and wo hope more will soon bo procured. On tho 8th tho regents held a meeting in which they exculpated Prof. Augliey from tho charge against him. Ho hus now resigned on account of business iu which ho has engaged in, iu tho West. Tho school is very sorry to lose him.
