COMPULSORY PRAYERS.-Harvard college students have begun a "crusade" against morning prayers, in the hope of abolishing compulsory attendance upon them. When a Harvard student has been up the greater part of the night bedaubing with black paint the bronze statue of the founder of the institution, or painting in the same fashion the name of his class on the outside of the chapel, it is a hardship to make him rise in the morning and go to prayers. He is naturally exhausted with his night's struggle in behalf of the "black letter" art, and needs the sleep and rest of the morning hour.-[Detroit Free Press.
