III. T erm. General review. - :
The above course is arranged as nearly as possible,
:n accordance with the course of study that will be
pursued during-the present year, so that any one who
may wish to join an advanced class, may know exact
ly what will be requisite.
Besides this regular course, another will be com
menced m January next, which will include all the
studies of college except the Latin and Greek Langua
ges. This will be completed in two years and two
terms. 1 he class will recite the first year partly with
the Sophomore and partly with the Freshman : but
during the second year, they will become nearly regu-
lar with the Junior, and finally, in less than'three
years they will have gone over all the studies in the
Mathematics and in Natural and Moral Science which
are taught in college. There is no requisite for enter
ing this class except a thorough knowledge of Arithme
tic. A certificate, signed by the Faculty, will be given
on the completion of the course, stating the amount
and character of the studies that have been pursued.
In connection with this class, a course of Engineer-
mgmay be pursued. This course will embraced the
Mathematics, Natural Philosophy, Chemistry, and Min
eralogy, that are taught to the regular classes, to°eth-
er with a knowledge of the French Longuage And
t!ie Professor of Engineering will give instruction^
Descriptive Geometry, with its application to Per
spective :
Civil Engineering—the properties and use of ma
terials employed in the construction of edifices and
roads; the survey and location of common roads, rail
roads, and canals; History and principles of the
Steam Engine: .
Drawing—profile and topography of roads:
Levelling—with practical exercises: (text books,
Davies’ Descriptive Geometry, Davies’ Perspective
Sganzin on Civil Engineering, Long’s Manual on Rail
Roads, and Lardner on the Steam Engine)
Besides the time employed in College at study two
months of each year will be devoted to practice in
the field, in connection with Engineers of established
character and experience.
Strict attention is paid to Composition and Decla
mation by all the classes.
Every candidate for admission into the Freshman
Class, in 11st be at least 14 years old j and every one
for advanced standing, of proportional acre.
The rates of Tuition, the Library Fee, and Ser
vant s Hire, are ,§38 per annum, payable in advance
viz. §25 on the 15th of January, and $13 on the 1st
of August; and any student entering College after
the before mentioned times, is required to pay pro
portionally in advance. 3 r
Parents and Guardians, who wish to send their
sons and wards to this Institution, can, by reference
to the foregoing statement of studies, at once see what
are the requirements for joining College, at any time
of the year; as they can always be received if pre
pared upon the requisite studies. v
Any individual, however, who does not wish to

pared : and will, on leaving the Institution, receive
from the Faculty a certificate of the progress he has
made.
All who desire it, will have an opportunity of stud-

no additional charge is made.
Instruction in the various departments of Literature
