of the Faculty, and from some of the first men in

from oblivion many important facts respecting her
early history. As well-wisher, therefore, both of
the Magazine and the University, we hope that the

be it said, that being overwhelmed by the waves OF
sectional divisions, their power IS carried away IN
the tide of their own strife. Here is found the ORR
gin of q orld- wide fame for liberty. IS the very
blessings which have gone forth from our laws shl-
ming unto the farthest realms OF the EARTH that nav
reused eastern worlds to a sense of freedom; and
II is these that have made America the magnet of

conclusion follows that this party is NOR

nation And, admitting that it may, II successful,
