pondent of the Hillsdale Standard ( teacher) writing from this city, under date of July 14, ays : Aan Arbor is more finely located than I had ever thought before. It is mostly situated on a side hill which slopes townrd the southwest, outh, west and northwest. The Univeriity lall and the Law Building face the west, the tludical Building the east, and the Obaervaory the north. The outlook from some of hem ís especially fine. The campus, too, is very beautiful at this time of the year. Many of the private residences and grounds are real modela, in fact, the place is very attractive. The best view of the city aa a whole, and one which pleases me more than any other, is obtained from " Prospect Hill," just out of the ettled part of the city, to the northwest. Trom this place the sight is well worth climbng the hill for. I ünd Prof. Olney, under whom 1 study, to e not only au excellent teacher, but a real man. The museum and the library of the Univerlity are open each week day from four to five tours, and they f urnish a good resting place. Whenever I get weary or discouraged with tudy, I need only go to the museum and look at the statue of Nydia, by Randolph Rogers, o inspire me again,- for its silent, beautiful orm preaches a coutinual sermón on patiënt, ersietent effort, as the only true road to eucess. And that is about what all strangers say of Aun Arbor. - The Conrt House contractors didn't get ere Tuesday, and have n't come yet. The trike hit them.
