The new building erected for a cabinet and
laboratory at Colby University is at length
finished and although reported completed at
various past times it is occupied this term for
the first time. It is a noble structure, COM
plete in all its parts, and in every way wor-
thy of the excellent Professor for whom it
was designed. 1t is an honor to the Univer
sity and to the workmen. All of the appsra-
tus and most OF the specimens of the cabinet
have been transferred from their old to their
new quarters. The specimens arranged in
their new and commodious cases present a
much more tasty and attractive appearance
than in their old, dingy and more confined
ones. During the past winter large and
valuable addition has been made TO the COL
lection Of shells which it is believed will
greatly increase the interest of the students
10 the study of Conchology. Although some
of the cases are still empty with such an &C.
ton and energetic man as Professor IIamlen
at the head of this department they can not
long continue so.
The old South college will not be repaired
at present, as there is no very urgent need for
it, so that for while at least the college
campus will not present the appearance of a
lumber yard and the ears of the students will
be free from the clatter of the hammer and
the click oft the trowel
The students have now nearly all returned
from their schools which they have been

proportion Of them than ever before have
bee to the seashore. Scattered along the
coast of Maine from Portland and vicinity to
Eastport they have been winning laurels for
themselves and for the institution. A few
have been preaching with excellent success.
Unusual interest is felt by the students in the
religious meetings this term. series of
meetings has commenced to be held in every
occupied room in the college in succession.
The annual publication of the college, the
"Oracle," will be issued 10 few days.

for several days. The lecture which he was
to deliver last Tuesday evening was post
poned to Friday evening of this week.
