Board can be had with the Principals and private
families of near residences on reasonable terms.
For further particulars send for a catalogue.
There are seven reasons why this School com
mends itself to public norice in preference to many
of our popular schools.
Ist. Tiie healthlulness of 1 he location,
2d. Its freeness trom all the vices which tend ?o
allure the mind from deep and earnest application to
study.
3d. Tb thoroughness and diligence to which the
student 1 subjected—t eing taught that he has no
tirnetc waste.
4th. Vocal music is a aily exercise, free of charge
in which the whole school join in the sweet accents
—which arouses the tired intellect, and restores elas
ticity to the drooping iimid
sth. The efforts made to deveiope the mind by the
use of practical Instruction at the expense of the
impractical.
6th, The deep interest manifested by the Teachers
Trustees, and Citizens, gives it that social and livel)
aspect,--so harmonious to the youthful mind—ren
dering the school-house a pleasant resort to the stu
dent instead of a house of dread and hatred.

conducted. ‘‘Heaven’s first law” is adopted and
