It is here that Cornell University is located, whose President is a ciJi/en of Syracuse, in whom Syra- cus-'is justly take i)riile. We were very agreeahly (lisai)i)ointed with Ithaca, and more partii ularly with Cornell University. The villa<^e is a prosper- ous, thriving town, whose streets bustle with at tivi- tv, and whose business i)laces denote a thrift and prosperity rarely found in inland vil'ages. The crowning attraction of the place is, of course, the university. Our stay was necessarily brief, and our observations but limited, and yet enough was seen to convin( e one that I'resident White is the right man in the right place. His rare e.xecutive ability is seen in the admirable discipline that character- izes the institution. His ajsthetical taste is displayed in the artistic embellishments of the various depart- ments, while the rare and costly gems of art that crowd each other in their appropriate places denote the rare accomplishments of the cultured scholar and the refined gentleman. .Mthough the college is new in years, it is superior to older institutions in rich collections of works of art, in a magnificent library, in scientific appa.itus, a^.d in everything that aids or illustrates the lecture or the text book.

Flags were disjdayed on the shi]jping, and the utmost excitement jjrevailed. The Annie Laurie, with the Union Jack at her bow and the Stars and Strijjcs at the stern, attracted more atten- tion than any craft that ever entered the port at Oswego. Sunday night the party reached Fhctnix, where they became the guests of Mr. C.eorge O. iJreed and other gentlemen from the village. At seven o'clock Monday morning, the Annie Laurie started for home, reaching the packet dock at a few minutes before twelve o'clock. From Salina to Syracuse the little steamer attracted crowds of peo- ple, who welcomed the safe return of the party with repeat-d cheers.

Perhaps, however, it would be proper lor me to preface these remarks with the statement, that for some time, our liberal hearted citizen, " ( 'ommodore' |()HN riRKKNWAV had cont-'Uiplated visiting New York with a few favored friends, in his new steam yacht, christened as above, for the purjjose of a pleasure trip, with a little touch of l)iisincss in- cUuled.

Overcoming the detention caused by a crowd of boats and the still greater annoyance of a triplicate of locks, tlie boat, on reaching the "long level," sped like a free bird. At 1:50 we reached "Thompson's," where, taking in a supply of the famous" Cold Spring water," we proceeded on our trip, reaching Kirkville at 3:30, Chiltenango 4:20, (where we landed our lady Ijiassengers,) reaching New London (what a misno- mer!) at 8:30, where we tied up for the night, the crew pr()<;< gates.

Original copies In printed paper covers are filmed beginning with the front cover and ending on the last page with a printed or illustrated Impres- sion, or the back cover when appropriate. All other original copies are filmed beginning on the first page with a printed or illustrated impres- sion, and ending on the last page with a printed or illustrated impression. The last recorded frame on each microfiche shall contain the symbol — ► (meaning "CON- TINUED"), or the symbol V (meaning "END' ). whichever applies. Maps, plates, charts, etc., may be filmed at different reduction ratios. Those too large to be entirely included in one exposure are filmed beginning in the upper left hand corner, left to right and top to bottom, as many frames as required. The following diagrams illustrate the method: L'exemplaire film* fut reproduit grSce d la g6n6ro8it6 de: Library of Congress Photoduplication Service Les images suivantes ont 6t6 reproduites avec le plus grand soln, compte tenu do la condition et de la nettet6 de I'exempSaire filmd, et en conformity avec les conditions du contrat de filmage.
