THE PHILOPHONIAN ADELPHI.-The highly classical tone of the society will appear from a list of the regular exercises. One member was to present a Latin composition, another a Greek composition, a third a Latin declamation, a fourth a Greek declamation, a fifth a chapter in Greek, three others exercises severally in Virgil, Horace, and Cicero, and a tenth a translation. Subsequently, Ovid, Homer, and Lucian were introduced into the programme. The same classical tendency shows itself also in the titles of the volumes presented to the library: Longinus de Sublimitate, Cicero de Officiis, Cæsar's Commentaries, Ovid's Metamorphoses, Greek Testaments, and Hebrew Grammar and Lexicon; all these, with others that can not be made out that first night. Presently we find mention of Æsop's Fables, Corderius, Cicero de Oratore, and Lucian's Dialogues. Their devotion to the ancient languages further appears in the question debated July 6th: “An cultivatio linguarum orientium superet mathematica." This was discussed "in the Latin language."-The University Cynic.

CUPIDO ET PSYCHE. [Alia pars.]

Nec morata, Psyche pergit Taenarum, infernum decurrit

meatum.

Jamque, confecta bona parte viae, assequitur asinum claudicantem, bajulantem ligna cum agasone simili qui Psychen rogat ut sibi traderet aliquot bacillos delapsos ex suo fasce.

Sed Psyche, non morata, transit tacita.

Paulo post ad Acherontem fluvium venit cui praefectus Charon continuo expetens portorium.

[Ergo et inter mortuos avaritia vivit. Nec Charon ille, tantus deus, quicquam gratuito facit; et pauper moriens viaticum debet quaerere-et aes si forte in manu non habeat, oportetne mori ?]*

Psyche dat Charoni nummum.

Dum transportatur senex supernatans Psychen rogat ut traheret eum intra navigium.

Psyche tamen non afflectatur.

Transito flumine, vetulae textrices texentes telam orant Psychen ut se juvaret tantillum.

(Hae omnes insidiae a Venere suscitabantur ut offulam de manibus Psyche demitteret.)

Psyche tamen precibus textricum spretis pergit.
