IA ceived for several years, intends opening in his
School q Classical Department for the instruction OF
youth in the Latin and Greek Languages. In his School
will be taught, in addition to the above branches. the
following, viz: Spelling, Reading, English Grammar,
Geography, History. Composition, Use of the Globes.
Arithmetic, Book Keeping, Algebra, Geometry, AID.
plcation of Algebra to Geometry, Plane snd Spherical
Trigonometry, Theory and Practice Of surveying, Ma.
drostatics, Optics, pneumatics, Electricity, Galyanism,
Magnetism, Chemistry, Astronomy, including astrono-
nomical calculations, &c.
In teaching, great care will be taken 10 make the
learners acquainted with the principles of each science,
sad 10 exercise their minds so as to ST. engthcn and i'm.
prove them. In teaching Natural philosophy and Gle.
m'stry, appropriate apparatus will be used for givine
illustrations and making experiments. Z
Objections are often made TO placing English scls,
lars in a School in which the Classics are taught, lest
they be neglected; but in y School in which there arc
two or more Teachers, and only one Of them attends
to the Classics. the objection is grnundless.

Something Astronomical 1T is remarked in
the American Almanack for 1881, published in
Boston, that ':the year 1881, is particularly dis
unguished for Phenomena worthy of the atten-
ton of Astronomers"
II Is a very uncommon coincidence that q
number OF Astronomical Phenomena will occur
In the space Of a few days, say from the 4th to
the 18th of the present month, to wit:
August a. Venus and the Sun in Opposition.
August 5. Mercury and Mars in Conjunction.
August S. Sun and Herschel in Opposition.
August 7. Mercury and Saturn in Conjunction.
August 7. Sun totally eclipsed, invisible how
ever in the United States, but the eclipse is uo.
commonly great aud Of long duration; beginning
of the Eclipse at 9 hours So min. A. meantime
at Washington. End Of the Eclipse at 7 hours
ST min. A. meantime at Washington. The du-
ratlou of the Eclipse is therefore four hours and
and hfty-seven minutes. 1t will be visible in the
greater part of New Holland and South Pacific
Ocean.
August 8. Moon and Mars in Conjunction.
August 9. Moon and Saturn in Conjunction.
August 10. Sun and Jupiter in Opposition.
August IL. Moon and Venus in Conjunction.
August 12. Mars and Saturn in Conjunction.
1t may be interesting to observe whether such
a multitude of phenomena, occurring in a fewdays,
will in any way influence the weather. =
In former times such occurrences as these
would have called greatly the attention of As
trologers. predicting perhaps great troubles in the
political states OF empires, Kingdoms, &c. as al.
so good or bad fortunes to individuals.
