rROLOGUE. hile our assistants, the artist and printer, are putting the finishing- touches to their work, we, a quintette of inexperienced musicians, are compelled to come forward and deliver the overture, in order that our audience may be prepared for the revelations of college life that will soon be presented. ' 83 is an original class, and, as her representatives, we have departed from the well worn paths of our predecessors and struck out into a somewhat new region, hoping that the freshness of the new scenes will compensate for the loss of the old and battered landmarks. Our endeavor has been to present a sharp, fresh and interesting Bugle, which, while pleasing to all, will wound the feelings of none. So, although Satire ' s our weapon, yet we ' re too discreet To run amuck, and tilt at all we meet. And we have restrained the exuberance of our wit whenever it could be exerted only at the expense of others feelings. Adverse criticisms we should expect ; approbation, when it is due, we should hope for. The work is done and cannot be undone. Take it for better or for worse and become learned from reading thereof.
