BOWDOIN ORIENT. 171. 26.—There came to thelibrary last week a hand-some little volume, entitled Hauntsof Wild Game, or Poems of Woods,Wilds, and Waters, by Isaac one of Bowdoins oldest graduates,being now ninety years old, Mr. McLellan fullyretains his vigorous powers of mind, and is still asfond as ever of all out-door sports and of the culti-vation of the gentler Muse. Willis and other dis-tinguished writers have given Mr. McLellan thecredit of being in many respects the finest poet inAmerica, and we readily agree to this estimate assoon as we come in touch with the delightfullykeen aroma of wood, lake, and trout brook. Thevolume contains nearly half a dozen pictures of theauthor taken at different periods of his life. It is avaluable collection of the literary work of one ofBowdoins most famous as well as most loyal andloved sous. 33.—Prof. Samuel Harris of Andover Seminarypreached in the Yale chapel, November 1st. 37.—Rev.
