Libel Suts against the Press.

Judging from the repeated instances Of libel
suits being brought against our contemporaries of
the press at the North, we should take il that the
editors OF that region are less fortunate, OF more
imprudent than IN any other part of the country.
The last case of libel in which our friends of
the more frigid region have been engaged. we
find notice of as follows. 1t seems that it is
Greek vs.. Greek, and. as both parties are accus-
toned TO such actions they of course will create
tug Of war in the way of words, if nothing else.
The y. Y. Tribune, one Of the parties. thus
good.humoredIy notices the suit which the editor
OF the Courier u Enquirer has instituted for libel

news from that quarter, without knowing exactly
what We were expecting.
The latest accounts, however, bring us but lit.
tie news Of interest, and such il is, we give be-

nothing else. have been peppcring the late Presi-

From the Boston Daily Advertiser

PRESIDENT QUINCY, We are permitted to
publish the following correspondence between
the Students of Harvard University and Presi-
dent Quincy. 1t affords gratifying proof of
the affection and respect entertained by the I'M
dergraduates Of the University towards the
head of that institution, and the sentiments with
which they regard his retirement. The me-
thod which they have adopted of testifying
their respect and gratitude is an extremely APP
propriate one, as it will afford durable record
of the sentiment which they wish to express,
and at the same time a memorial of the object
Of it, which will be valued by all the friends of
the University We understand that Mr..
Crawford is the artist who has been employed
to execute the proposed bust Of the President.
He has already entered upon his work at Cam
bridge, and gentlemen who have been permit
ted to see the clay, speak in the highest terms
of his success.
