THE society spirit seems still to increase. We have received several articles in favor of a Whist Club. Although it seems rather needless to start a society when the game can be played with as much enjoyment in our rooms, and with what company we please, yet a club has some advantages; very probably the room of one society, where a fire is always kept, could be obtained reasonably. One great good arising from many of the newly formed societies is the bringing together of different class-men. The sprightly Freshman may checkmate the sedate Senior, and the majestic Sophomore discourse learnedly on the origin of metalliferous deposits to an admiring group of members of the various departments of the University. A few years ago one of the papers had a capital article on Whist; and, however this attempt may succeed, perhaps it will awaken more interest in this queen game of cards.
