These young gentlemen, by their devotedness to their association and 1 their rea'diness and constancy to labor to make it the instrument of their own . improvement, show ! that they under.stand the excellency of intellectual attainments.

The canrl,r -pulling washy no means an uninteresting sport; nor was the masticating of said taffy less amusing. Dinner bell call ed time and gathered us in, some from the billiard room, some from tht ball-alley5, and others from the reading room or a r efreshing leisurely walk. The afternoon was spent likewise, and in the immediate preparation of our appetites (by a good walk to t he woods) for the oyster ba1~quet which awaited us at4.30 P . M.

After all this bodily and intellectual r epletion we aclj ourued once more to t be read in g room which, lit up and cozy, seemed the most inviting. The cigars were passed and a gay chat was commence•l-stories, jokes, college jokes, and other laughab le things were on the tapi(> and kept the glad boys in a constant exertion of their risibl es. At 7.30 P . l\1. we were summoned to the music room which was en jete,-tl.ilgs, inscripti ons and other decoraeions floating all around.

many n German or Freuchma.n literally murders the lnngonge trying to le.-'lrn it! How many boy<', especially Cllicago boys, are perpe~ually throwing away the precious t}(s of our ~nglo Saxo11 anri using n p all the d's instead! and still the laognagc lives ! Is not t.his Yitnlity wonderful. Even the Londoners themselvns don't "cruple dropping · tbeirh's and so much so that 11.n American says the streets of London fairly teem with dropped h's. This must be V'ery exhaustive on a language - but as I said before our language is vigorous and young. AIJOtber good point in favor of the "English language is wherever it is spoken it is the same-without at least any material difference. We have no dialects properly so called. But we have brogues and .these are blessings for which we must be thankful to the English language. For what could we do without the brogues? bow much nf our innocent amusement would be lost? The French anci the German, the Jewish, the Polish are treasures of fun; the Irish is a je" el. Thus gentlemen I've shown yon not very clearly some of the worct elements which enter in the make-up of our language-all of which y0u know as well as I rlirl, &oct as I see yon are anxious I shonlrl cut this short 0f say something new I shall add only one more word, Good Night.
ELOCUTIONARY RECITAL. Thmsrlay evening, Dec. 8th, the Faculty and sturlents were n.grcnbly entertained by the Professor and the young gentlemen of the First Elocution class. The event, as all happenings which disturb the sameness of college life, had heen looked for with much anticipation, nnd this time the anticipation of the fun did not prove more pleasureable than the fun itself. Really we were highly entertained and owe many thanks to the speakers and their painstaking instructor for the able programme presented us. One interesting feature of the programme was its opening by Prof. Dore. His remarks were substantially as follows:Rev. -G-entlemen, and students, I was requesterl to introduce the subject on this occasion and here it is. I am not the subject, but I have the subject with me. I will exhibit it in the course of my remurks : ~o, if you want to catch a glimpse of it• be on the lookoutThe young gentlemen here wbo f<Jrm my background have the intention giving you a disp aly of their elocutionary abilities-and, if you are still here when I get through, they will no doubt do so; for they are evPn now only waiting for the floor-which, howt!ver I shall not soon yielo them . I feel by looking at them, it would be b:trdly safe to let them at yon , loaded SIS they are

with their fi ery spccche~, I think it's adyisHble to use some time to le t thE.'m cool off-and to prep:1 re you for the hock. Wh en in the course of college life, it be~omrs necessary fur a whole community t.o be :c1ssailed hy a little army ofmncl, frothy, sublime, funny 8 t:une:i d ecl:ti'llet-s one way well ask himself, what i5 'it all :tl>out? What is it all about i'?? <Jentlemen, go into the forums of any nations, visit the drawing rooms of society, stop in the hovel of the working-man, travel in a sleeping P-a r, ;-leep in the college dormit~ry, or walk in the college r,mks, and you'll everywhere discover the astonishing fact, viz: that men :-:peak, anrl boys too (to sn.y nothing of girls and women.) Now when men put a gre!$t rleal of vim, power you know, eye-power, voice-power, arm-power and soulpower in their language, they call it elocution. All these externals make spoken languhge very forcible. When for instance, as it often enough happens, a boy tries his new hatchet on his father's pet cherry tree, as George Washington did and confessed, or makes a rat-trap out of his sister's bustle, there generally happens a good deal of spontaneous dl)mestic elocution. The injured parties do not speak-they elocute! Children themselves practice elocution at a very tender age-but elocution is oftener in their case as poetry was in its beginning, that is, joined to music. Babies are often caught practicing it by themselves especially if left alone for a long time. Indeed there is scarcely a bettel' way of amusing one's self than by elocution as yon yourselves will have evidence of this evening. It is time to come to the subject pr0per, and now that I see your intellectual cameras well settled I shall cast th<:> picture-steady then! El-o-cu-tion .... is an art . ... which teaches us to express our spoken thoughts forcibly, agreeably, &ublimely-It is a fine art! Elocution is the garb of oratory's fair form . .A,p. orator's worcls may he very well chosen, his sentiments of the loftiest kind, his whole discourse a masterpiece of composition, yet if he has not the additional advantage of an external grace, a correct and forcible delivery, much of the beauty, sense and spirit of his grand oration will be entirely lost. But if he once a1tain this powerful help-which Demosthenes strugglPd so bard and so long to master, then oh! what acontlagration of passionate enthusiasm can he not lig ht up in the hearts of his hearers. There. is not one among you who has not felt and relished the refining, polishing, strengthening effect of good elocution upon orat(n·y. You have all heard speakers whom you have called in yonr own privn.te judgement, good, excellent, and poor. Much of the · effect pro duceri npon you by these comes from their manner of tleriPg their thoughts.
