Says the Hartford Courant: "The younger Mr. Charles Francis Adams not having found Greek useful to him either in soldiering, or in railroading, the Harvard faculty has decided not to require sub-freshmen hereafter to pass an examination in that language, tho' they may if they want to. It will be Latin's turn next, we suppose. Latin is a "fetich," too, and the decree has gone forth at Harvard that the "fetiches" must go. Perhaps some other things may go with them, but that is Harvard's lookout, not ours."
