The Yale Thanksgiving Jubilee nb Dei-

 the notices of the press are any criterion for young, an opportunity to recall the most pe- culiar memories of their college days, and to unbend their dignity in the most excusable manner. On the present occasion the pro grammes announced that in accordance with the advice of the faculty the jubilee would be conducted on the reformed basis" under the immediate supervision and control of 8 gentleman selected by the faculty. With the programme was large amount of imag- mary correspondence between the jubilee committee and the faculty regarding this change, much of which was rather dull. Shortly after eight the 'squartette from the Theological school" which was to furnish the reformed" music, entered, followed by the Rev. Berkeley Coles, D. D., who had been ''selected by the faculty to preside" in the person of Isaac Bromley, jr. The emi- nent divine took his seat in the veritable old college pulpit, which had been brought from New Haven for especial use on this and fu- ture occasions. On his right was the old choir box occupied by the quartette, and into the similar pew on his left came R. s. Bus sing, jr., "A, as the oldest living graduate, | and J. F. Piggott, '7s, as Professor Agassiz, of Harvard.
 Mir. James M Townsend, "A, and Mir. Frank Jenkins, '74, occupied chairs in the pulpit on either side of Dr. Coles. The rev erend doctor then lighted his cigar, | threw back his venerable locks and announced that s'members of the senior class l will meet me this afternoon In the presidents lecture room. Members of the junior class | will meet their officers at the Lyceum imme- diately after the close of the present exer= l cises," etc. He then delivered a brief open | ing address about Rex, Lex, Lux, Dux and Prex and Willy, Willy, Wally, O. The choir then sang a selection beginning as follows:
 Blow ye the trumpet. blowl The gladly solemn sound Let all the Alumni know, The earth's remotest b rund- The Jubilee Let us all shout l. Is here again The glad refrain /! At old Yale, in our day,
 Twas held under ban But now we're pleased to say, lis on another plan
 It's bondage past, Is free at last! | Dr. Coles, after announcing the Townsend l subjects with comments, continued his ad- dress about as follows:
 Of late years there have been many insnuatiens have been one have been averse to- an would in no way countenance, the annual jubilee of the alumni, and there has been such rapid falling of in the at tendance upon those entertainments the part of the alumni that account, that at the request of your committee and the president of the college here this evening rep esentative of the facul ty in the hope that my presence, in my official capac ty will to throw dscredit upon those insinua tions and be the restoring the associaten those who out of deference to the facultys feelings have abstaned from Partieipating in CT taking any am well aware that some of mem bers of the faculty have been caricatured at your meetings. know that myself was the object of your pungent wit and poignant satire at yoar last years jubilee have been eorely tried by It. wrote to the presi | dent stating my grievance. may say that I have wept copiously this state of affairs. The time has been when had thought my gray hairs were be- ing brought in to the grave. As members of the faculty have made this special subject of prayer.

 Be thankful, then, gentlemen of the Alumni, fer 1 this favor; and whenever you meet membeF'of the faculty be quick to show your appreciation of this | tiun of the Thanksgiving jubilee schoor CT of | lager IS but meagre and inadequate return.
 After the applause had subsided poem, revised by the faculty and pronounced fit to be read, '" was announced, and Mr. James NJ. Townsend, 'T4. announced as his subject ''The College Pulpit" It contained few good things but like all the other addresses of the evening bore marks of hurried or care less attention We give the following ex- tracts:
 ''There be three things" the sage of Holy Writ | Remarked. (which too wonderful for r "Yea, four ;" had he been spared till now to sit l With you at this Thanksgiving Jubilee
 Hs would have cried. "The serpent on the rock,
 The eagle in the air. and how he goes; | ''Did never puzzle 20 much as this
 "The college pulpit in Delmon1co's '"
 But here it is, and so ask you now Let tutors boxes line these sacred walls
 And feel yourself on hard seated Dew.
 Often we hear how the holy sage Daniel | Sat by the wayside in days of old,
 While the naughty king of the astute Jews | Rode by in his chariot of purple and gold
 How the willy king tried to trip the prophet | By double entelldre and jeu d'espTit,
 How the prophet at last was infuriated
 And rose to sense of repartee.
 This was succeeded by the stMissionary Address" in place of the usual sermon, by Frank, Jenkins "A. This was too long and rather dreary, but contained redeeming fea- lures like the following

The rest o1 the time was passed in conversation over the wine and cream. As whole this banquet fell far short of former ones in wit and in- terest. Quite number of undergraduates | were present
