amusing reminiscence of Henry w. Long
fellow, the poet. When he was professor
at that college he was seriously annoyed

and was prompted by his classmates very
sudibly. The professor gave no heed to the
prompting, but let the student blunaer
through his paragraph, aud, when the
young man was seated, quietly said: "Your
recitation reminds me OF the Spanish the
