Robert Bartlett, of Plymouth, Massachusetts, graduated at Cambridge in 1836, and in his Master of Arts oration, three years after, took for his theme the phrase, No good possge P.

The test of an author is not to be found merely in the number of his phrases that pass current in the corners of newspapers — else would Josh Billings be at the head of literature ;but in the number of passages that have really taken root in younger minds.
