THE Harvard Register for June is the best number that has yet appeared. It is a model of typographical excellence and care, in which respect we know of no other American magazine, excepting, perhaps, Scribner's, that equals it. The articles this time are unusually interesting, comprising a paper on Phillips Exeter Academy, by C. G. Kidder; The Agricultural School as a Preparation for the Study of Medicine, by Professor F. H. Storer; another batch of General Oliver's Reminiscences; essays by Professors Trowbridge and Shaler, and several other contributions. The Class of 1830, by G. W. Warren, is a pleasing record of a class which produced Sumner. 39,000 copies of the Register have been published in the seven issues up to the present time.

H. Rumner, of the Staten Island A. C., the Secretary of the Staten Island A. C., with a knowledge of the above facts, having entered a protest against Mr Wendell for not running in the trial heats.
