An Academic Romance.

President Eliot's engagement has made
rather more sensation at Cambridge than
any similar announcement for ten years.
Last winter he met Miss HopkinSon, who IL
about fifteen years his Junior, at parties and
private theatricais, and was exceedingly
we'll pleased with her singing aud acting,
and, in such lordly way as president OF
Harvard and q member OF the Beacon-street
aristocracy may, testified his approval
thereof. He was frequently seen at the
lady's side on social occasions, and at
last wicked young Harvard began to
wag its head and wink when "Prex"
and Miss Bopkinson were mentioned. The
natives Of Cambridge were serenely conf
dent that there was "nothing in it." Was
he not an Eliot, the son OF an historian OF
Harvard College? Did he not count half OF
the mercantile blue blood OF Boston as his
cousins? Was not his first wife a model OF
all the virtues, graces, and accomplish
ments-a daughter Of DIR. Peabody and
sister of DR.. Bellows's wife, Might he not
marry anybody, and was it reasonable, was
it right, to suppose that he would marry
Miss Hopkinson? Nice girl, OF course
family nice people in their way, but nobody
that ANYBODY in Cambridge ever heard OF
Besides, it was said that she had taught
school, and not in high school, either. The
whole story was preposterous! Young
Harvard, undisturbed, talked on, and soon
after the mutilated exercises OF class-day
were over n rumor crept abroad that Presi.
dent Eliot was engaged; and curious ma.
irons, who wanted to know all about it, and
pompous matrons, who felt that the engage
ment would not be complete without their
ratification, called on Miss Hopkinson and
congratulated her. She denied the whole
story; whereupon it flew faster, until some
angelic mediler wrote to President Eliot
about it. He was off on yachting excur-
sion, but as soon Us the letter reached him
he FASTENED back to Cambridge, transformed
the falsehood into truth as quickly as might
be, had the engagement announced pub
]icly, and gave the city something to talk
about for six weeks. 49,, ..,...
