has lately received from Mr. Daniel Sears
of BoSton s •ahCretofore' libe,ral benefactor
of the college, small and carefully scaled
box, with the instruction that ifis not to
be opened fur one hundred years on pain
of.a forfeiture of the gift which it contains.
Speculation - is at 'fault-as to the contents
and the reasons for the accompanying con
dition; The shrewdest - guesS is that the
box holds deeds of real estate in BostOn,
now under- lease for .one hundred years,
i but then to be transferred to the college.

stated that the Breckinridge,intetest was

that there was danger that the friends of
Douglas would dwindle

minority. 'We tank these statements
rather inconsistent; yet the Ileiald fool
ishly and incorrectly stated that we were

charge that the Herald is on the fence, and
in great danger of falling off on both sides,
