It forms the principal topic of conversation, and places all other interests n the background. I am tempted to forget that tho early and happier days of Schiller were passed in this city, although a magnificent statue of the sublime poet graces one of its principal squares. I hear nothing but indignant reproaches of Count Bismark, end of the policy which has placed the Confederate German Sta in such a false and deplorable position. Even in Pras the war has scarcely o single advocate among the people. Beyond the precincts of the royal court, not a voice is raised in its favor. The democratic musses look upon it with undisguised aversion, 1 might eay, with Lorror. It was reportéd here yesterday that & revolution bad broken out at Berlin, that the Ahum-u was in flames, and Count Bismark was assassinated. The rumor proved unfounded —one of the sensation stories with whick the air is filled— but it indieates the tendency of popular fe g 1 ish was father to the thought.

From Our Speclal Correspondent. New-HaveN, June 26, 1666, There are at this elderly and umbrageous University, honors for all classes of men, whether conferred by the the faculty, by common applause, or by ono of our class- mates. The festival of the Wooden Spoon, is the great occasion of the latter origin, and is now patent here quite 20 years. It consists of aseries of mock Colloge exercises, culminating in the formal presention of a huge aud elabor- ate Wooden Spoon—aes big as a Trencher—to the most popular fellow in the Junior Class. The recipient of the Speon this year was James M. Allen, variously dating from Chicago, St. Louis aud the universe, and in whose unstable locum ftenems the secret of his “gloshing " good nature may be discovered. It 18 never your staid, keep-at-home, family man, who wins under-graduate esteem, Rather the open-handed, rolling, rubicund fellow, of palpable idiosyncrasies, who stands as easily as possible with his books and socloty, but whose pertinacious good nature is bound’ to keep him in Jovial remembrance. The wooden spoon wes formerly kiven to the most unfortunate student, the fag fellow of the class, ho who came in late to prayer, and sat much on the fence of the Collego green, and rolled tenpins with sbout much sdroitness 48 he studied, and loved ‘soft and suny spots, whero he could sleep well and coutinually; & man Dever 4Ngry upon any provocation whatsoever; never lett out of & company or & serenade, who was alwuys good for w Jovial night, of what tho yourg Britous call » ! jolly lark; * to him, in meed of the good lhinr! he looked” but nevor said, in hpprobation of Lis entire lack of money or ambition, the juniors handsomely subscribed to give & leather medal or wooden spoon, aud much merriment re- sulted thereby. It may scom straived that this essentially local and cir- cumstantial incident should be worthy of more than a par- agraphic mention; but we have no right in our overbear- ing practicality to puss censorious opinious upon what has become s settied principle of our University life. These thing: never of littlo regard abroad, in the grest unie versities with which we hope our own will some time cope. Thero the yearly vegaries nd extravagances of the stue dent take traditional importance, and he would be no Englishman who discountenanced any of them. So, with this wooden spoon, it is one of the marks of the esprit du corps of American University life; an outeropping of the revelry wo meed to make our Alma Mater revisit- able and délightful, and somcthing mwore than & reminis- cence of dog-earcd text books and bard desks, shaved by the remorseiul pen-kxife.
