We have long been convinced that the prevent eys’em of Female Colleges wa defective Where the Text honk leaves off, the Teacher's duty but commences: and when there are a large number of pupils in a class, it is next to impossible for the teacher to be more than a hearer of recitations.-- Besides, the pupils cannot he cl issed so as to lie equally-advantageous to all. To obviate these delects, the only feasible plan that can he adopted is to limit the number ol pupils, wli'le there is a Hill corps of instructors, so as to class the pupils according to taste and advancement. The num ber ol young Ladies in this Institution will he lim bed to FORTY, and the Faculty will number FIVE Instructors; each one ol’ whom will devote t lie cnt're time tollie interest of’tlie pupils. By the proposed plan, the Instructors vv 11 have time to dwell 0.1 tlnf suhj -ct taught, to c l i ;id it. c it in all its hearings mid aonneefians, and the voting La ches will have the full benefit of being taught upon every subject by Lectures,.tin course of instruc tion partaking of that form.
