[Miss MAUDE MILLETT was at Cambridge last week, when the
Grace of the Senate for an inquiry into the Compulsory Greek
question was _placeted_ by a large majority.]
The tug of war, when Greek met Anti-Greek
In deadly feud, was over in a trice.
They spoke out promptly, when they had to speak--
They would not have the Grace at any price.
But undergraduates of every race
Flocked to the Theatre, each night to fill it.
The Grace THEY _placeted_ was just the Grace
Of one fair maiden--pretty Miss MAUDE MILLETT.

A CHILI PICKLE.--The following advertisement is sent us, extracted
from the _Chilian Times_:--
CASA QUINTA!--TO LET in Viña del Mar the first story of a
comfortable house, with beautiful garden and yard, situated
in the finest part of the villa, and consisting of eight rooms,
baths, gas, cellar and all other comforts, etc., against rent
or board to a matrimony--Apply, &c., &c.
If Chilians can treat English like this, Americans will stand a poor
chance "_against rent or board to a matrimony_." The terms of the
lease in Chilian Legal English would probably "afford employment for
the gentlemen of the long robe."
