The three features which yesterday marked the progress of the celebration were interesting and attended by innumerable crowds, and therefore successful in the extreme. The cold, clear weather undoubtedly had much to do with this result, as many ladies and alumni would otherwise have been unable to attend the exercises. Such an accident, however, we should have deemed far from unfortunate, thinking as we are of the fearful crush which accompanied each one of yesterday's happenings. To recount the lectures of the morning service is to tell how enjoyable they were. The full anniversary chorus of the Glee Club sang delightfully, and gave that great charm to the whole service which magnificent music always adds. The voices blended with exquisite harmony and showed the result of careful training. But what we shall chiefly remember about the service was the strong and masterly sermon by Prof. Peabody. Never before have we heard such a composition from our honored Professor of Morals, and well may be proud to have amongst us as our guide a man who possesses such power of conception and expression as Prof. Peabody showed in his sermon of yesterday.

The concert of the afternoon was extremely delightful and the lack of space in the theatre for even one extra person, testified to its due appreciation. But we regret that something more appropriate to the day and commemorative of the college could not have been offered us.

Who shall speak of the grand service of the evening? Those who attended it must relate a repetition of the glorious music of the morning enhanced by the excellent quartette of the four graduate voices. But still more, who shall speak of the beauties and magnificence of the grand sermon by Rev. Phillips Brooks? Two thousand listeners must try to answer; we cannot.
