ST. JOHN,S COLLEGIAN. 2-20 Burns who instead of being allowed to use his excellent powers in litera- ture had to collect taxes on intoxicat- ing drinks and afterwards was ruined himself by drinking. Spenser may have chosen this kind of life, and it is not unlikely he was forced to it, for financial reasons. Spenser did not appear to enjoy thoroughly the gay life of the times, he liked better the quiet life and beautiful scenery of Kilcolman castle. Whenever he went to England to attend to the sale of books, he always returned after a short stay. He had many friends but only a few were intimate ones, and he did not seem to suffer by the ab- sence of social pleasures. - Spenser must have been a typical Englishman of the time. At any rate he was hated by the Irish who found at last revenge. They were goaded to desperation by the injus- tice of England and attacked Spen- ser'ig house. He escaped, but an in- fant child perished in the flames. Spencsr returned brokenhearted to England and died within three months. By serving his country in arms, which many could have done as well, he never completed the Eaery Queene, which he alone could have done. C. JARBOE. ...-... 3.-A-K.

We are sorry to say that artillery tactics have practically been abandoned. We are sorry, not so much on account of the artillery drill as for the fact that we have no way to appropriately celebrate victor- ies. Time was when' every victory in foot-ball and base-ball was made the subject of a 4th of July celebration, but now, owing to the absence of the cannon, such a thing is an impossi- bility. One celebration we distinct- ly remember, that on the occasion of the victorious Southern trip of the foot-ball team in '9O. Our worthy President, in endeavoring to put a stop to the exhibition, became him- self considerably mixed up in the pyrotechnics. On that same occa- sion the gunner unwilling to lose a charge of powder by the President's interference, fired the cannon with the lin-rod sticking in it, where the assistant gunner had leftit upon notice of the President's arrival. The lin-rod sped through two fences, knocked the bark oif a tree and lin- ally buried itself in the earth. It was a short time after this celebra-
