its earlier members are several Tho have

non was a, member in 1890, but was ex-
PEELED, It appears that he gave evidences
in early lite of that evil disposition which
has recently rendered his name soinfamous.
Among the names Of later years we find
S. B. Halliday, T. S. Stivers, A S Burnap,
S P Reed, W H H Cohen, N I Behan, R
A Sidebottom, and other young men Of this
vicinity.
A long list of honorary members is ap-
pended, in which we find Queen Victoria,
Hon N H Van Vorhes, Hon. D Webster,
N. Speck, &c. We should like to say some
thing funny, but, as our own name appears
just above that Gen. z. Taylor, it might be
dangerous to say much.
We will, in conclusion, whisper a word
in the ear Of the person who superintends
the printing of these Catalogues. One was
printed at Columbus, and the other at Gin
cinnati. Why could not both have been
printed at Athens? To say the least, it is
no compliment to the town, the institution,
the Messenger office, or any body concerned
that these Catalogues are printed hundreds
of miles away.
Catalogue Of the Theological Seminary q
The Diocese of Ohio, and Kenyon College,
This institution is under the patronage and
control Of the Protestant Episcopal Church
1t is located at Gambler, in Knox county
about five miles from Mt. Vernon. Bishop
McIlvaine is President Of the Theological
department, and Lorin Andrews, A. M. il
President ofshe College. An able Faculty
| is found in each. Pomeroy is represented
among the students of Kenyon by William
Irwin Wolaey, Junior, and Lewis Paine,
Sophomore. The Institution is in flour
ishing condition. There are eleven students
in the Theological Seminary, and $50 in the
College. "old Kenyon" has long sustained
high reputation, which is not likely to be
dimmed under the superintendent of Lorir
Andrews.
They have Seminary Press at Kenyon
upon which their Catalogue is printed, and
if we mistake not, it is sometimes used by
the students for printing matter Of less
useful character. We have somewhere &
paper received from 'one of the boys which
contains less theology than nonsense. Bu
boys will be boys as old Curmudgeor
used TO say. ,.
