 he might have occasion to hold conversation with the gentleman behind, whose knees pressed so closely and tenderly the small of his back; but he seldom had opportunity of knowing his fellows. The dismissal of the class scattered the students, and they met no more till the class resumed. The Union has changed all this, and no student need suffer isolation now. He can dine, smoke, lounge, have his gymnastics, read his books, as he pleases, in the student club. Every one knows the immense advantage which the English University system has in many respects over our own. The Union has made, perhaps, as near an approach to bridging over the differences from which we suffer as it is possible for our Scottish method to allow. We have no colleges, but our various Societies, and the Union in particular, do a great deal to make up for the want of them. We hope that the student support which has never been wanting will be tremendously increased. The development of the magnificent idea which the Union embodies rests with the students, and particularly with those who are now coming up as freshmen. If they give their hearty and thorough support there need be no fear of failure; it is both their duty and their privilege to support the Union.

WE have inserted the following from a large selection of notices sent us. We cannot undertake to satisfy all our readers in respect of this column:—

MEDICAL STUDENT, of strictly temperate habits, wishes to meet with lady medical with a view to partnership—medical or matrimonial, or both. Address M'Tavish, 17 Marchmont Crescent.

DIVINITY STUDENT, just through his exit, desires to dispose of “The Anxious Inquirer" (uncut and good as new), for which he has no further use.

R. A. H.—No; never mind the change. Sorry you found place shut up. Try again.
