Miss Hotchkiss, who has not, heretofore, boon connected with the Institution, comes to us highly recommended, as a teacher of rare qualifications. Among other testimonials the following letter from Prof. Newman, of Union College, New York, is an ample guarantee for her ability and efficiency : Union College, Dec. 29,1855. Dear Sir : —ln reply to your inquiry, I would say, Miss Hotchkiss, 1 know to be emi nently qualified for teaching. Her scolarship is general and very thorough. She is enter prising and ambitious—loves to teach, and on the whole, is the best qualified for it of any lady I over instructed. I speak thus confi dently, because she was a pupil of mine some four or five years. Truly yours, JOHN NEWMAN. Upon thegenoral principle that nothing tends more to impair and destroy she intellect, than superficial habits of study, no young lady, in this Institution will bo permitted to take up studios beyond the grasp of her mind, or to ad vance from • lower to a higher class until site has thoroughly mastered all that precedes. The mind that has not comprehended common arithmetic and English Grammar, is hut poor ly qualified to grapple with the intricacies of the higher mathematics, or the subtleties of rm-taphysies. Wo invite patronage, end we intend to de serve it; but we do not promise to make schol ars in a day. While modem eeience has al most annihilate! *n! spwe*, the mind retains only its original qualities and eapabil itnw.

The only required preparation for admission will be good character, over nine years of age, and exemption from all illegal and base asso ciation, and no students refused because of being graduates. An effort merely to please a people, being the first step towards duplicity and fraud, duty alone will be the Polar Star taught; and no Yankee drumming, for students, need be ex pected, nor no beggars employed by this Col lege.
