TG MY SISTER AFTER HER MARRIAGE.
God bless thee, Sister !—though thy place,
Close by my side, is vacant now,
I often see thy gentle face,
Thy loving smile, thy placid brow;
in thought thy voice is on mine ear
With all its tenderness of tone ;
God bless thee, Sister, ever dear,
Yet dearest now, since thou art gone!
Like vines that spring from the same spot,
And with each other intertwine,
For years we shared a common lot,
My joys, my griefs, my hopes were thine;
And thou my sadder heart would’st cheer
With the sunshine of thine own—
God bless thee 1 thou wert ever dear,
But dearest now, since thou art gone.
New tics are spun around thy heart,
New scenes have opened to thy view,
Yet thou wilt never tear apart
The love that with our childhood grew;—
Though life a robe of bliss should wear,
And speak as with an angel’s tone,
The past will seem as bright, as deur,
Nay, dearer still, since it is gone!
The impress of our younger years
Fades latest from the human heart,
Its joys, its griefs, its smiles, its tears,
In distant hours remembered start!
The words which we were wont to hear,
The cadence of a father’s tone,
To each of us will still be dear,
Nay, doubly dear, since he is gone.
God bless thee, Sister 1 not a tie
That bound our hearts is broken yet;
If life for thee should wear a sky
Os gloom—Behold ! my sun is set !
Os brightness—lo Imy sky is clear !
For still in spirit we are one ;
God bless ihee 1 thou wert ever dear,
Yet dearest now, since thou art gone.

DESIGN AND LOCATION.
This Institution is designed to be a School, in which the young
of the female sex may be judiciously and thoroughly trainee), in a
literary, scientific, and ornamental course of instruction, under cir
cumstances the most favorable for the cultivation of their manners
and morals.
The village of Penfield was selected for educational purposes, by
the founders of Mercer University, and the experience of fifteen
years has confirmed the wisdom of tlteir choice. It is convenient
lof access, being 7 miles from Greenesboro; 9 from Union Point, on
the Geo. Rail Road; and 4 from Woodville, on the Atiiens Branch.
APPARATUS.
The Seminary is supplied with apparatus lor the illustration of
the different subjects in Natural Philosophy and Chemistry. The
Cabinet contains many specimens in Geology. Mineralogy and Con
chology. The pupils not only witness the experiments, which are
‘accompanied by informal lectures, but receive instruction in the
manipulalions of the laboratory.
EXAMINATIONS.
Examinations are held not only at the close of each session, but
also at the end of every fifth week, at which times a statement of
,the progress and delinquencies of each pupil, together with a report
of her daily employments, is sent to her parent or guardian. The
examinations at this Seminary are thorough and strictly impartial.
They are conducted by lot, in such a manner, that neither teacher
;nor pupil can know beforehand what part of each study will be the
subject of examination.
BOARDING HOUSE.
Young Ladies boarding in the family of the teachers receive those
offices of maternal care and kindness which are needed for their
i health and comfort. Though under such restraints with respect to
‘manners, company, and the employment of time, as judicious and
anxious parents know to be necessary in a well-conducted boarding
i school, it is nevertheless confidently expected that they will be ren
dered happy in themselves, and in the society of eaclt other, and of
iheir instructors.
