BIoGRAPHICAL F,F1 AL SIS sKhTGHEs E AZ 9f LEGE HISTORY. Vol ". July, 177S- June 1792 By Franklin Bowditeh Dexter, New York; Henry Holt & Co, $500.
 Concerning Prof. Dexter's new vol ume the New York Evening Post has the following which includes a few words of personal tribute which all our readers will feel to be very grace fu1 and fitting.
 Under a modest title, this volume contains q mass of important histori- cal and genealogical matter, clearly and pleasantly presented. Professor Dexter is we'll fitted for the work by an exquisite habit of accuracy, which makes men of experience hesitate to question any of his statements, by a sense of proportion, and by a memory which has aroused the wonder of many college generations, He has been in the service of Yale University longer than any other officer oi the institutions, and his offices of secre- tary, professor of American history, and assistant librarian, have all aided him in these researches. The first volume of this work was published in 1SS5-the very year in which appear ed the third and last volume of Sib- ley's Harvard Graduates" MT Sib- ley's work doubtless suggested Mir Dexter's; the form, as well as the plan, is nearly the same, though the biographical sketches now before us are rather more condensed, allowing on the average only about page and half to each graduate. Professor Dexter is more fortunate than MT. Sibley. in that the latter lived only to bring his work down to the graduates of 1889, and no successor has been found for his task, while Professor l Dexter is within sight of the comple- ton of his work, and as younger now than MT. Sibley was when he publish ed his first volume
 The fifth volume the preface tells us, will include classes from 1792 to 1S05. The gap which remains be- tween these Biographies" on the one
