The best part of the recent number of the Lampoon is found in the short quibs, and jokes. By their originality and merit, a few of these save the number from being decidedly ordinary. The longer pieces,--particularly the editorials--are merely new treatments of very old ideas, which have appeared in the paper in one form or another for a decade or more, and appear to no great advantage in their present shape. The climatic conditions of Cambridge, the Water in the Yard, the Freshman and his Cash account, and the more recent material, the Union waiter has for some reason offered--are all treated in the recent issue, and are, well known to every reader. The "By the Way" has a somewhat more elaborate verbal jugglery than usual, but is otherwise quite as unreadable. The drawings in themselves are well executed, and the centre page is a remarkably accurate portrait of an actual event.
