“Who slays the lion? Who slays the giant?

Who masters them all, however defiant?

He does it who himself controlleth;

And every nerve of his body enrolleth,

Freed from passion, under strict subjection.”

Mr. Kroeger has done a service to art, to history, and to religion in opening thus before our eyes a few of the treasures of the so-called dark ages.

College Journal. Georgetown College: Dec., 1872, Vol. I., No. 1.

This is as elegant a little paper in outward appearance as we remember to have seen. The articles are written with taste and correctness, and we offer a hearty welcome to the young gentlemen of classic Georgetown on their editorial début. We have only one piece of advice to give them, which is, to be careful that their wit and humor be as classic and scholarly as their serious pieces. Most papers, especially juvenile ones, break down on this point. We wish our young friends honor and success in their enterprise.

The Catholic Publication Society will publish in a few days Wild Times, a story by Miss Caddell.
