THE CLASSICAL SOCIETY.
Debate by Consre.ssen on fle subject
nj CnIfnPp.

The Classical Society met last evening
at Miss Ransom's studio Hon. s. Shellabarger, the
president, in the chair. He introduced as the es-
ssyist of the evening Hon. George B. Loring, OF
Massachusetts, who proceeded TO read . most in
tersstiDg and scholarly plea for the study of the
classics. He referred to the absorbing tendencies
OF business pursuits and the practical requirements
of the age and advocated the study of the classics
as the best means of culture for the direction of
public affairs and true craftsmanship, and also as
a relief and solaee from the cares and anxietes OF
professional and business life. He illustrated and
supported his argument by references TO Edward
Everett, President Felton, Rufus Choate, Judges
Parsons, Story, Shaw, and others. At the close of
the essay, which was highly applauded, Judge
Shellabarger made some remarks on the same
SIDE and advocated the classical study as i'm
parting so much additional power in the use Of
language, spoken and written. He then threw
the subject open for discussion, when Hon
J. B. Alley made quite a speech jim opposition,
claiming that the men who had accomplished
most in this and other countries were not those es-
pccially distinguished as scholars. This brought
DR.. Loring again to his feet and he supported the
position of his essayin spirited extempore speech
The debate was closed by an address from DIR.
Gregory late president of the University of Illinois,
who, being introduced by General Eaton, Commits
gioner of Education, was called on by the presi-
dent, and responded in brilliant judicial resume
of the arguments pro and con. the ability and elO
quence Of which certainly demonstrated the adj
vantage of classical culture in his case. 1t was an
nounced that the next meeting would be held
Tuesday evening March Z, when Professor De
Haas will read paper on " Archseologic Art"

TROUBLESOME QUESTIONS.

The action of the Union Veteran Club in refer
cnce to the appointment of Doorkeeper Fields an
ex-confederate, as q marshal, has provoked much
discussion, but the members of the executive COM
mittee hope that perfect harmony will be restored
before Inauguration day. General Sherman is
quoted as saying. in reference to the route of the
procession, that he intends first TO carry out his
share of the ceremony of Inauguration, and after
that he will march the procession to-any place
that is desirable. The plan said to be favored by
General Sherman is to return from the Capitol by
wsy of Pennsylvania avenue to Eighteenth street,
to X, to Ninth and there dismiss.
