The students have peti lioned the trustees to abolish the sbursary system,; and allow them to board at pri vate houses. They have frequently peti tioned for this privilege but, without suc cess. Many, of them have now bound themselves to each other by a pledge, to leave the college, unles the, privilege thev ask be granted to them. The Trustees, we learn, are favorable to granting the petition of the students, but think it un wise to do so, unless they withjleajw from the pledge to leave the college if their pe tition be not granted ; the Trustees think ing.it would be wrong to comply with their request, under the; influence of a threat, Threat or no threat the petition: should be granted, the same petition having beeri presented many times before.
