Young Ladies'
Boarding and Day-School.

Winchester Female Institute.
HsHIS institution, under the superinten
n dence and instruction OF the Rev. Mr..
EIcHELBERGER, will 60 into operation on
| Monday, September 10Th, and is designed
| to embrace an entire course of female ed
ducstion. both English and classical, not
inferior, 1t IS hoped, to any similar In
| stitutioD in the state. All the various
branches Of instruction approved Of and
pursued in the best female institutions of
the day. will have appropriate attention;
and the course will have reference to the
essential and solid requirements of the
pupil, rather than to the shortness Of time
in which an education, so called, may be
completed Pupils, therefore, will advance
from lower to higher class. l. from one
branch Of education to another, no faster
than their real improvement will justify.
The instruction and government Of the
| school will be under the constant care
| Of the subscriber, in conn ecton with such
assistance as it may be necessary to secure
and always subject to the inspection of
parents and guardians, who can weekly
visit and examine for themselves. There
will be an annual examination at the end
Of the summer session, when the profcien.
cy Of the pupils may be publicly judged
OF; and at the end Of each session parents
will be furnished with a written circular,
| shelving the scholars standing, as to con.
duct and scholarship, during the session.

furnished to pupils at cost. Boarders will
| be looked upon as members of the sub
scrber's family, and therefore subject to
such regulations as watcbful regard to
their improvement in education and NOR
ais may require. The situation of Win.
chester, as to health, Sc. is well known
as most favorable TO institutions of learn
ing. II is therefore hoped that the present
attempt at establishing one that will hold
out advantages inferior to none in other
sections of our country, will share the at
tention and support of parents and others
Interested in the subject Of education.
