Young Ladies'
Boarding and Day-School.
Winchester Female Institute.

Winchester Female Institute.
THNHIS institution, under the superinten
h dence and instruction Of the Rev. Mr..
| EIcHELBERGER, will go into operation on
Monday, September 10th, and is designed
| 10 embrace an entire course Of female ed
ducation, both English and classical, not
inferior, it is hoped, to any similar in
stitution 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. * 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 ection 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 proficien
cy Of the pupils may be publicly judged
of; and at the end Of each session parent.
will be furnished with written circular,
showing the scholars standing, as to con-
duct and scholarship, during the session.

tuition. Such as order it can have books
furnished to pupils at cost. Boarders will
be looked upon as members of the sub
scriber's family, aud therefore subject to
such regulations as watchful 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. 1t 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.
