Thiseveningat thepubüc exercisos Mr. McLennan gives an oration on " Macbeth." Two of the students have built a cabin down by the rirer and are going on the camping-out plan. Not long since they were absent from their residence for four or five dayg, and when tliey returned tliey found their dog inside, which they had gone off and forgotten. It is unnecessary to say the dog had been fasting in their absence. Saturday was a cold day, especially for the Adrián boys who caine here to show the Universities how to play base-ball. In fact it was cold enough for muffs, a good many of which were seen during the afternoon. The strangers were surprised to see the ball curve so much and it rather rattled them. The score stood.

ANK AbBOB, April 30, 1883. Editor Courikr Dear Sir- Please say in your next issue that " Somebody has Blundered." I have not been offered the Presidency of Nebraska University, and consequently have not declined it. All of this grew out of a very innocent letter from a member of the Nebraska Legislature asking me if I would consider the matter should it be proposed. I regret that I have been the occasion of advertising the University as offering her chairs, and ha ving them refused. Yours truly, Edw. Oi.ney. p, s._w)i other papers that have copied the personal above referred to, please give Chis equal publicity. E. O. I Nathan Knapp saja: Wolcott.
