Deah Bin :—ln reply to your inquiry, l 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 1 ever instructed. I speak thus confi dently, because she was a pupil of mine some four or five years. Truly yours, JOHN NEWMAN. ypon the general principle that nothing tends more to impair and destroy the intellect, than superficial habits of study, no young lady, in this Institution will be permitted to take up studies beyond the grasp of her mind, or to ad vance from a lower to a higher class until she has thoroughly mastered all that precedes.— The mind that has not comprehended common arithmetic and English Grammar, is but poor ly Qualified to grapple with the intricacies of the higher mathematics, or the subtleties of metaphysics, W- invite patronage, and we intend to de serve it; but we do not promise to make schol ars in a day. While modern science has al most annihilated time and space, the mind retains only its original qualities and capabil ities The Intellect, in its onward progress, *s still dependent upon the principles of asso ciation, the powers of judgement and memory. ®®l advancement in knowledge now, as it has *er been, is slow. jan4. ts n t fails Si*. vol. i.: McCORMICK COLLEGE, (MALE AND FEMALE,) Opelikn, Russell Conuly, Alabama.
