Dec 29 50 5t Education THE subscriber announces to the public, that I’isSehool for the education ot youth will be opeaed for the admission of students on Monday, 2d January, 1837, at the village of Mount Zion, Hancock county, a place highly celebrated for its institutien of learning. The ancient languages Mathematics and the Sciences, together with the primary branches of education will be taught, and great care be taken to give to each student a thorough, critical and enlarged comprehension of the various sub. jects of study pursued. The principles which are employed by him, who holdsthe important station of an instructor youth, tn the management and direction of his change, should he freoly stated to the public, that they may judge of their correctness in theory, and tneir applicability tn the wants of the jisiag generatien.and the structure of socie ty at large. I shall, therefore, present a concise Aiew of those acted upon by myself. And first, Government. This a fundamental article, “ Order, is Heaven’s first law. Order, per fect order, without a jar or one decrepancy must be maintained. To secure this different modes are used’ One, the compulsory, which attempts to accomplish ilscbjecl by “ bolts snd bars, rods aud stripes.” This is suited to the blind despotism of the ctpnp or navy, but not to train yenth for the social duties of an enlight ened, independent republicanism. Fear may curb the licentious and refractory'spirit of the student, while under the immediate influence, bnt as soon as it is withdrawn he is left without any balance or guide to dirent his course. An other is the persuasive, wdich seeks the same end by addressing the possions of the student— his pride, ambition, aud spirit of emulation ; a mode equally objectienqlile with the former, as it nouiishes that never sated love for distinction which in the moral influences. This peints out duiy, moral obligation, as the rule of conduct. Its vast superiority over the pieceding methods is apparent to every mind. The officers of an educator do not stop with merely imparting au amount of knowledge and the outbreakings of violence and passrati during the hours allotted to study. take hold of the most secret windings of individuals social and public interest. The heart, the social and mo ral feelings, are to be trained and educated as well as the tnind. Believing it to be the graud and fundamental principle in government to teach youth to govern themselves, this mode seeks the establishment of character Its law is, do right; its argument, is it right ? its tribunal the student’s own conscience. Such being our government, little need be ; said as to the mode of teaching. It will be to I lead by the attractions of knowledge to make study pleasant and interesting, and to give clear ideos so that the student, charmed by the light he enjoys, may press on to greater attainments improvement and science. Terms of Tuition.— Per term, primary class, $8 1 Junior, §l2 ; Senior, §l6. Books and stationary, if wanted, can be pro cured at the Institution.

From the flattering encouragemet, we have ceived during the present year, we have made very e..ertion, and have succeeded in engaging he services of first rate teachers in the several departments of the Institution;—They bring with them testimonials of religious characters, and literary attainments fioni many of the most itiHuential gentlemen in the United States. We have made arrangements to have a Stew ard’s Hail attached to the Institution, at the head ol which will be Mrs. D’IESTE, an elder ly lady, whose domestic habits and experience iv th* government of young laeies, are very highly extolled. We have been led to this step, from the inconvenience which young ladies experience in going lo and coming front their boarding houses during inclement weather; from the time they lose, owing to the domestic ar rangements ol other houses, not corresponding with our own; for the sake of having all the yo mg ladies, at ail times, under the supervision of the teachers, as many of them are disposed to neglect their studies, and become careless of their manners and language when not subjected to such a check; and, finally, the teachers can not feel themselves as responsible for those who board elsewhere, as for those who board with them. We do not wish to be understood as dic tating to our patrons, but respectfully sub mit the above hints to their sober consideration. A contract has been made for having comple ted early in the. ensuing year, a Female Gym nasium, for physical education. Young ladies who may desire to speak the French language, will have uncommon advan vautages afforded them here.

Professor of Civil Engineering, Uacon Col lege, Ky. The following extracts of letters from two of the most scientific men in *ur country, will show the utility of this School. FRANKFORT, July 19 th 1836. Dear Sir—The four young gentlemen from the Georgetown Mathematical School, who arc engaged as assistants in the Engineer corps ol the State, have performed the duties assigned them in a very satisfactory manner. Among the young gentleman of my acquaintance who have embraced the Profession of Civil Eng;- : neering, those who have been educated at Ma- j thematical Schools have generally succeeded I better than the graduates of our common Colle ges. A knowledge of Mineralogy and Chemistry is of great advantage to the Engineer ; and it is absolutely necessary that he should be acquain ted with Architectural or Line Drawing. The Student should be taught the principles of con struction at the same time he is taught to make his drawing. Very respectfully, your obedient servant. SYLVESTER WELCH, (Engineer in Chief for the State of Ky ) ToT. F. JOHNSON Esq. Professor of Civil Engineering, George town Ky. LOUISVILLE July 29th,1396. Sir—lt affords me pleasure to testify to the very correct and satisfactory manner in which the two young gentlemen from your School have conductod themselves during the time they have been in the service ; and the ability mani fested by the prompt and skilful discharge oi their several duties, is alike creditable to them and the character of the institution in which ! the> were instructed. The Books comprised in your course of stu dies arc appropriate and well selected. I am pleased to hear that Topographical and Archi tectural Drawing is to form a part of yonr fu ture course. This is an elegant accomplishment to an Engineer, and in the early part of his ca reer will frequently bring him into notice and hasten his promotion to more responsible sta tions, where his talents may be fully devel oped. Appreciating as I do your efforts to elevate the profession, I trust they will be crowned with success, and I assure you it will afford me very great pleasure to render any aid in my power to second your views. Your most obedient, THOS. F. PURCELL, Engineer in Chief Lexington and Ohioß. R. To T. F. JOHNSON, Esq. Professor of Civil Engineering, George town Ky. EROM A GRADUATE OF THE LAST SESSION. Indianapolis, Oct. 1836. Dear Sin—We are about to commence the location of a Canal, 34 miles in length, to meet the Central Canal,- which will take us till late in the fall. lam perfectly satisfied with my situation, and shall never regret the money spent in obtaining it. I consider the fact es my having attended your schfiol one Session to have saved me at least three years bard labour, for it would have required that time (had I not joined your Class) to qualify me forthe discharge of the duties I now have on hand. 1 believe this isthc opinion of each member of the class which graduated last Session. FROM A CO RESPONDENT OF ONE OF THE.STUDENTS. Geneva, N. Y. Oct. 29th, 1836. Your intention of going to Georgetown Kv. is, I think an admirable tine and you would be very much to blame, not to go through with it —sot, from all accounts, the School in George town is better adapted for preparing Engineers than any others in the United States, t have spoken to several Engineers on the Subject and they all agree in recommending it very strong ly.
