University Life in England.

The Cornhill Magazine furnishes some cur
ious specimens of college life in England
There is nothing the students so much dread
as the word Examination, and from the fol-
lowing answers ofthe undergraduates to GER
tain questions, we should judge they would
have some fears in passing through such an
ordeal. Many stories are always afioat of won
derful blunders in divinity; some, of course,
are inventions, and others facts, or founded on
facts. We give few extracts:
Examiner-"What can you tell me about
st. Paul? aagp sataHg
Under-graduate-"He was also called Saul,
and brought up at the foot of Gamaliel." :
Examiner-"Yes,q quite right What do you
know about Gamaliel 9''
ndergraduate-"Itis mountain in Cali
lee."
The next, we believe, may be credited to
Cambridge: que att
Examiner-"Why did Moses leave Egypt ?"

sir-hem-hem-" m 49,
Examiner" Come, come, answer if you
know" .DMfaERts sz8qh
Under graduate-"Well, sir, suppose that
little affair with Potiphar's wife"
For the following we do not attempt in any
way to vouch, although we have heard its au-
thenticity strenuously asserted:

q The Greek Church in America.

Father Agapuis has performed the Greek or
Russian service in Trinity Chapel, New York.
This is the first time such service was ever
performed in this country. The ceremonial
observed was that contained in the "Divine
Liturgy Of the Orthodox Oriental Church."
The services are peculiar and quite interest
ing. The church was crowded, and large
number of Episcopal clergy were present. In
many respects the ceremonies and faith of the
Greek church are similar to those of the Cath
olc, but this church disowns the authority of
the Pope, and that widely separates them
from the Catholics. Unlike the Catholics
thew lay no claim to infalliblity.
This church baptizes by trine immersion,
and admits children to the rites of denomination
and communion as soon as they are baptiz-
ed. The existence of a purgatory is denied,
but it prays for mercy to the dead at the final
judgment. 1t believes the Holy Ghost pro-
ceeds from the Father, and notlfrom the Son.
Priests marry but once, and that before ad-
mission to holy orders. They have good vo-
cal music, but no organ, as the church forplds
the use of instrumental music. Father Aga
puts was clothed in white vestment orna-
mented with gold and wearing a crimson
scarf which fell over the breast.

Letter from Boston.


To the Editor Of the Press:
IN one respect Boston is like all the rest OF
the world, to wit: she is waiting to see what
sherman is going to do. In the meantime,
The editors, wise as owls-as all editors are
turn out page alter page, in elaborate leaders,
of minute details concerning his strategy and
purposes, till one would think some great
mistake had been made somewhere in not Civ.
ing the direction of military affairs entirely
into the hands of these wiseacres. Just now
they all agree for once with the Richmond or
gan, that Sherman is somewhere" and hope
ere long to delight their readers with the
astounding intelligence that he has been doing
Something. Haste the day.
The city was festive with large display of
national emblems upon Saturday. The bells
we're rupg at noon and salute fired upon the
Common; and the Presidents inaugural ad-
dress was more generally read than any other
ever given, because it was SO brief. What
ever may be the faults of our President, he
certainly writes the shortest messages, tells
the funniest stories, and makes the least pre-
tensions Of any resident at the White House
We cannot estimate his virtues now, but in
the after years History will write his name SO
high upon the scroll ofrenown, in such burning
letters of glory, that even The Iaurels of our
Washington may grow dim beside it. The
idiot and the sinner may jeer at him now and
wsg their heads, but God knows him, and He
will reward him In the day when He shall
make up his jewels.
The numerous charities connected with the
war are still in enthusiastic working condi-
ton. Boston is pre-eminently chartables
Organized Freedmen's Aid Societies are doing
great work. Soldiers Libraries are becom-
ing an active Institution. Every one who can
should furnish q few volumes to this cause.
Rsnsack your libraries and send good and en-
PERTAINING books to the wounded soldiers who
nope and languish in the hospitals, with moth
ing to take their minds from their sufferings
and WEAKNESS. a9
Much was done for the sufferers at Savan-
nah. Much is being done for the Sanitary
and Christian Commissions-and all these or
CARNATIONS open an avenue to every house
and heart, where each one can contribute his
mite, and there can beno excuse. Let no one
slight his opportunity, lest He who went about
doing good should one day say: HInasmuch
as ye did it not unto one of the least of these,
my brethren, ye,did it not to me-" eir5

MAJoRITY.-The Advertiser says Mayor
McLellan's majority was 27S; the argus
properly states it at 57s. A majority is not
the excess above one half, but, according to
Worcester, it is "the excess of the greater part
of number above the other part or parts, as
by what majority OF votes was he elected Pr
ia has 499 votes and B has only 1, then
AS majority is 49S, and not simply 249, as the
Advertiser would have it. A plurality is
what one candidates leads his highest com,
petitor; a majority what he leads his combined
competitors; what his vote exceeds the COM
bined opposition.

'ymptons of Catarrh
BYAP.LIHGTHILL. Md

The first sensation is usually feeling of dryness
and heat in the nose, and frequent inclination to
sneezng There is an inability to breathe freely,
as the nose becomes stopped up, sometimes on one
side, sometimes on The other.
Soon clear watery, acrid discharge makes its ap-
pearance excoriating the nostrs, and edges of the
lips, which become red and somewhat swollen. At
ter few days, the discharge becomes thick, yellow
ish, extremely frequent, and continues to be a
marked feature Of the disease, and source Of much
danger and the greatest annoyance. After more or
less time it becomes purulent, highly offensive, and
assumes extremely fetid Odor. 1t is usually so
prouse as to require when confined to the nose, the
frequent application of the handkerchief or if it
drops into the throat, which is more particularly
the case while the body is in horizontal position
constant expectoration, and sometimes both.
Sleep is frequently disturbed by a sensation of
choking caused by the presence Of the discharge in
the throat Owing to the heat in the head, the wa
terry portion of the secretion often evaporates and
assuming condition of solidity, is deposited upon
the membrane of the nose and upper part of the
throat, in the shape Of crusts or hardened Jumps
The accumulation of these incrustations produce
feeling of discomfort, and narrows the nasal passa
yes to embarrass respiration. Therefore, fire.
quent efforts have to be made to remove Them eth
er by foreibly blowing the nose, or by persistent
hawkng-a practice as disagreeaDie to the one af-
iected as ills TO those around him. Alter the remov-
al that side OF the incrustation which adhered to
the mucus membrane will sometimes be found
bloody, fact which explains the force required for
its disodgement. During sleep these demonstrations
accumulate more rapidly, and the feelings thereto
most uncomfortable in the morning. Sometimes all
efforts TO clear the throat are futile until after
breakfast or after something warm is swallowed.
Some patients state that they are not Successful un
tilthey have SWALLOWED some whiskey or brandy.

MARATIsiE PATRoL.-Messrs. McGilvery
and Southland, the commissioners appointed
by Gov. Cony to wait upon the President and
present the resolutions of our Legislature in
regard to assigning steam vessels of war to
the coast of this State as a maratime patrol,

their views and referred them to Secretary

resolutions: Submitted 10 the Secretary of
