Leaving Cleveland Oh EaS o. & P. G.sO
train, We soon found Ourselves In the pleas
ant village Of Hudaon, thS seat OF the W. R.
College, and here We ProposOto tOmiail for
4 few days and Ssndyoas few "i'Snsg taken
on the SPOT.
The College is nov In q very hOurishing
condition, aud must, under the care and
guidance Of its worthy President and Fac
ulty, take its stand as one Of the first col
legesin the West. The gentlemen eonpria-
ing the Faculty are men Of talent and abiI-
ity, and their untiring efforts in behalf Of
the students, we are assured Is dolly appre-
ciated. The following are the Fasulty:-
President II. L. Hitchcoek, n. D, Prof. N.
P. ~eeylnous Prof. c.. Cutter Prof. Q. A.
Young, Tutor Z. W. Childs, Instructor Of
Grammar School, Edwin s. Gregory.
The Freshman Glass for the Eext College
year promises to be a large one. Eighteen
have already been admitted, and more are
expected; and in this connection we may
edd hat the Faculty have secured the SER
vices Of Mr.. W. ]. Chamberlain as Tutor Tor
the next year, and from g personal acquaint
anee with him, we can say that he will give
satisfaction, being q man well qualified for
the position.
The exercises Of Tuesday evening were of
an interesting character, being an address
before the Alpha Delta Phi Society, by Rev.
DR.. Heacoek, Of Buffalo, N. Y. We will
not attempt to give an outline Of the Adj
dress, but will say it was one, if not the best,
We ever listened 10.
Aher the Address the members Of the
Chapter adjourned to their rooms for a social
reunion.
The members of the Bella Theta Pi Society
also had a reunion at their rooms.
On Wednesday morning the AiRmRi met
and elected ]. C. Lee, of Tifin, as their ora
tor for the ensuing year, and Prot. John s.
Newberry, as alternate.
At . o'clock the W. P. College Cadets,
Capt. Young, numbering about City men,
drilled on the College grounds, in the pres
ence Of Gen. Mcneil and staff, and & large
of spectators. The Cadets are a fine
company, we'll drilled, and executed the
different movements with much ease aud
precision.
Capt. Hayward, of the Perry Light In
fantry, has for the past few weeks been
drilling them, and under his instructions,
together with those of Capt. Young and his
Lieutenants-Beebe, Asborn, and Hum
.phrey-they lave attained great PrOfeien-
cy in drill. We understand that when their
services are needed they are "ready," and
be assured, if they are called NJ on, they
soiH 6glt.
The address before the Alumni was de-
by Rev. VIM. D. Sanders, of Illinois
COllege-subject: "True Patriotism" which
treated under four different heads:
l. True Patriotism is Intelligent g. Is
Just; 3. Is Benevolent; 4. It is self sacrifc-
ing.
The address was a scholarly production,
and delivered in an admirable manner.
