The following slight sketch of a student's frolic at Yale, may not prove unacceptable to some of your readers. If it meets your approbation, please insert it at an early day. ‘The “Burial of Euclid” is one of the oldest cus- toms of this iggtitution. Its origin is indeed lost in the lapse of time. The study of this ancient au- thor is completed during Freshman year, and when the class has assumed its sophomorical dignity, one of the first duties which devolve upon it, isthe “burial” of his corpse, with all due so- lemnity. For many years this custom received the sanction of the faculty, and was considered as one of the harmless amusements of college life— gradually, however, it became rather a noisy and disorderly ceremony, and consequently suffered the prohibition of that august body. For a few yearsit was discontinued; but respect for the dead soon revived it, and never since, notwithstanding the positive prohioition of the faculty and their strenuous efforts to prevent it, has Euclid’s spirit wandered around the Styx, lamenting the negli- gence of his followers. The present sophomore class, with characteristic generosity, determined to conduct the obsequies of their ancient foe with all due respect. A committee was organized, and made the ments with ll prasible secrecy: finally, evening of the 6th, notice was given in the various literary societies that the “burial” would take ight, at “ Barney’s Hall”—the watch- “Zeus.” Aunexed is the order of Novraoen, 1850, PROGRAMME OF EXERCISES. 1.

Theesame Geo ‘hompson has become a member of the British Parliament. The United States of America have increared in power and influence, and ex- cited alike the admiration and the envy of the world. England, especially, looks upon our in- creasing wealth and strength with a jealous eve. Our widely extended commerce meets and di- porary.’ which has the dignity ofits calling !! This game bas been played the injury of every anes soatinues to be " in Europe in regard Jong as it can find food for its slandersin the columas of its “ able cotemporary” in this city, we do not ppresive how the evil can be remedied After all, it a matter of litle importance what the of Europe think of us, except as a matter of feeling ; but in tne name of all that is secred in our Union, do not suffer the agitation of the slavery question by the Herald, and its predictions of inevitaole dis- unioa, to produce the very state of things it affects to deprecate. We must not suffer either the foreign eduor of the Herald, or George Thom , Or any other foreigner, to meddle with what does not coa- cem them. They have no feeling or ioterest in common with us; and they are the last men living who should be listened to, or even tolerated, when they meddle with our national affairs. “ There is no right, however sacred, no privilege however unquestionable, which an individual may not, at any time, in this freest of all the nations of the earth, be called upon to sacrifice at the sum- mons Of public opinion. If it shali please the ma- jorny to decree that a perticul wr landlord shall no Jonger receive rent, his right is extioguished as ef- minishes her’s y every sea; our growing manu- factures suce lly contend with those of herown looms in some of the most extensive markets of the werld; and our maritime strength plainly ad- monishes her that she is no longer the mistress of the ocean. But in the midst of all our prosperity, we have disease within. The casker worm which Englich cupidity planted—the accursed slave ie which enriched the island of England, and to which ber Grekteny proudest, and best, even at this day, owe all their wealth and position— left in our midst a sore which threatens to destroy the whole body, and the control of which has de- manded al] the forbearance and patriotism of our wisest and purest statesmen during three-quarters of a century. Bagieed. reeives with satisfaction that while we could and did throw off her authori- ty, we couldnot rid ourselves of the curse of human siavery, which, for the love of gold, she had plant- ed in our midst; and it is the boast of her preas that we have the seeds of death in our very vitals— that the curse of slavery, which [English cupidity planted in a new world, and which is a blot upon her eecutcheon, and not a stain upon oure,will, sooner or | later, be the cause of our dissolution as a united people, and the creation of a dozen pet'y States upon Mtsruin. Their game has been, and is, to foment dissentions among the States—to arouse the North againet the South and the South against the North —and thus accomplish by intrigue what she, with the whole civilized world at her back, cannot do by force of arms—annihilate our glorious Union. ith this view, for years past, Eagland has sent into our Northern States unprincipled ageuts, whose business it was to addregs themselves to the fanaticism of the see, and to preach a crusade against slavery; while at the Same moment, her equally Rode are agents are traversing our Somhern States, boldly and openly —— dis- upion, aud peienene to point out the benefits to secrue to the South from secession and seperate treaties, and free trade with England. 8 POL our purpose to tind fault with the jealousy of England, or with her desire to sow the seeds of discord winopg us. According to the seitish diplo- macy of vations, these things are tolerated if not justifiable; and whether justifiable or not, the strong will ever resort to them when they do not fear rebuke. She is now the first power upon the face ofthe globe, and such she desires to remain. Yet she cannot shut her eyes to the fact, that in another belf century, this republic, should we continue a united em must inevitably be- come what England now is, and give laws to the civilized world. This is a fact es susceptible of demonstration as the simplest problem in Euelid—the handwriting upon the wall is too legible to admit of question—end the Kaglish statesman must change his nature and the Eaghsh press its character, when they cease to use ali the means in their power to accomplish the destruc- tion of that Union which, if it continue, must il evitably render England asecond rate power. We should not be surprised, therefore, when we daily perceive a press hike the Herald, edited and con- trolled by ove of her subjects, daily agitating the question of slavery and predicting disuvion. and that agitation and those predictions transferred to the columns of the Loudon Times. For a period of twelve years—ever since the editor of the Mcvald visited London in 1838—the Ties has quoted from its columns as the leading American press; and the reader need not be told that those columas have ever teemed with just such articles as, transferred to the Times, would necessarily poison the whole pub- lie nund of burope against our people and our stitutions JNo species of abuse upoa our tas tions, our public men, our social relatiogs, and our private habits, has ever appeared in the Merald which the Times has pot erly disseminated throughout lurope; the reader need not be fectually as by the most formal release ; if it shall please the mujority to mike a footpath across a cuizen’s lawn, the rood is 1ps0 facto dedicated 10 the use of the public.

We were totully unable to account for this palpable surrender of all pretensions te common sense on the part of the American pnblic, ull we fell in with an article in the New York Herald, in which that jourpal, justly solictious for the dignity of its calling, vindicates the America press from the charge of having excited the American public to ro outrageous a pitch of folly and self-abase- ment It appears from the article of our able coa- temporary, Which bears on its face the stamp of truth, tbat Mr, Barnum, the great showman ot the ege—the exhibitor of the living skeleton, General ‘Lom Thumb, the woolly horsr, and the nuree of General Weshington—had struck out, for the ex- press benefit of Jenny Lind and himsesf, a new idea, which the blucking of Warren aad the waistcoats of Moses have pever iaspired their poets withal. He invented what we inust call, for waut of a better name, the police of puf- fery. He bad actually, for months betore Jeany Lind’s arrival, apumber of provocative agents, as the French cail them, in his pay, whese busi- ners was to “get up a furore’ tor Jeany Lind This furore once excited, was chronicled by the newspapers, and thus infinitely multiplied, as heat | and light are increased by being reflected. The whole susceptibility of the country was soon in a bleze, and long before Jenny Liad had placed her foot on the American continent, public opinioa had | pionounced in her favor, and she was peerless. | to be wanting to his good fortnne, Mr. Bar- | nem employed his police in the congenial oecupa- » of puffing the ticket auction, till, at the mis. catled town of Providence, $635 were actually ob- tained fora seat, and sold for a valuable consid- eration the honor of entertaining the Swedish nighiingole to an enterprisitg inakeeper. 9.18. .0. 8 “The inference is asad one.

Of the extent of this systematic abuse and its immediate trane- fer to the columns of the Times, even those who — read the Verald are scarcely aware until they pause and retleet upon the past. Lut when they do reflect, and put to themselves the question—what pablic or prominent private man has eeceped this abuse? What party has not had it showered upon them? What class of our society, from the clergy down, has been exemp:? What public institution has been unassailed ? What bank, railroad, canal, or moneved isuitution, passed unscathed ’—they cannot but stand aghast at the extent of the injury which that press has done us in Europe. Through the Times, the Herald's habitual abuse of our country, aad its of everything American, aad all ¢lasses of | Americon society, are damiliar to every intelligent man in Europe; and in vain do the representatives of our country, aud our patriotic countrymen, monstrate against being thus judged. The answer infor they are #0 told by the Times for its owa purposes, and by arrangement, no doubt quote from the New York Ierald, and the assures us it is your leading newspaper!” How far this systematic abuse of our country has beeo the result of an arrangement with the Tines io 183%, we leave others to determine; bat certain it is, that since the visit of the editor of the Herald to Londo that year, the Times has never faited to find in its columns the ideutical class of articles upon our ur eople, aad our | » and which it would ave written itself for our injury in, Europe, it it had not been already manufactured for it by the foreigner who evidently eeughi our = ra with no other object than to slander and dela ue But while the Herald ouly wjured ue in |arope we could submit in comparative silence.
