ritations of the respiratory system.
The formula for this preparation of medi-
cine is by that eminent medical gentleman, N
Chapman, NJ. y professor of the institutes and
practice of medicine in the University ofPenn-
sylvania, physician to the Hospital, and Phila-
delphia Almshouse and Infrmary.
The Cough Mixture has been in use several
years, and its success is so much greater than
any other article in the market that we do not
hesitate to recommends 1T as the most efficacious
medicine for coughs and affections ofthe lungs
generally, now in use.
1t is proper to add that the Cough Mixture
does not contain opium in any form whatever,
which is productive of bad effects by continued
use, and too often constitutes the basis of the
popular cough preparations of the day
The number of does each bottle contains is
double to that of any other article offered to the
public, and renders it far less expensive to the
purchaser than any other medicine now in use

MISSISSIPPI FEMALE COLLEGE

rTyHE Trustees of this Institution met on
u the 10Th ultimo, and adopted the follow
ing resolutions:
ResoIred, That the board of each young lady
be 800. per session of twenty weeks, to be
paid one half in advance.
This sum is intended to include room, bed
ding, fuel, washing, aud all other contingent
and extra charges connected with the boarding
department.
Resolred, That the prices Of Tuition be as
follows:
Preparatory Department, pr session, SIG 90
Advanced Department, 20 OO
This Department embraces all the studies
usually taught in the higher schools.
ORNAMENTAL DEPARTMENT.
Music, including the use ofthe Piano, $40 90
Needle Work, ID 90
Drawing and Painting, ID 90
Painting In Oil, 20 w
Transferring, }
Shell work, l OO

1t will be perceived from the foregoing reso-
lutions, that the rates of boarding and tuition
have been changed from the former prices
This course the Trustees have been obliged to
adopt. They have employed competent and
efficient instructesses, who must be literally
compensated and the resources of the institu-
ton are the only fund from which that COM
pensation should be drawn. Hitherto this fund
has proved insufficient.
The rates which are now established, both
for board and tuition, are such as are adopted
in other and neighboring schools, and are such
as the necessities ofthe College demand.
RESOLVED, That no young lady be admitted
as student in the College till the achole tut
ton, and half the boarding fees be paid at Tx
time she joins The College.
