Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Old and New, Vol. 4: July 1871, to January 1872
The editor of old and new had gone to Middletown, that most lovely of towns in the Connecticut Valley, if it can be said that one town is more lovely than another there when May decks the world Nothing could have been lovelier when Arthur filled the throne. The editor had gone to address the convention of delegates of alpha delta phi, one of the oldest and largest of the affiliated college literary societies, in which, in his boyhood, he had done some of the first literary work of his life. So, as the rest of the editorial staff met on the piazza, their talk naturally fell upon colleges, college life, and college systems, the New Education and the Old.
