As both Institutions were founded BY
the same persons and are under the d.
rection Of the same Board Of Trustees
IL was thought better TO have them under
the supervision Of the same presiding
officer. In other respects however
they are totally separate No H-er-
course IS tolerated, On any account be-
tween the pupils of the two, unless by
the direction and under the management
of the Faculty and Trustees The
Trustees wish the public % know thar
this regulation Will be strictly enforced
The rules Of both Institutions are de-
signed TO be strict. .but not UnreaSoua 1le-
and a strict conformity To them wIl Of
course be exacted as far as possible from
every pupil both Male aHd Female
Il is wished, however. and INTENDED b.
the Trustees and Faculty. 10 make The
government of the Institutions parental
Kindness and tenderness are 70 BE- ming
led with stTictness, and even with pun
ishment, when punishment IS necessary.
The principles and precepts o. our holy
religion are required 10 be taught and
practised in the institutions and for tins
purpose, the Bible Is made a text booz-
but every thing sectarI2a Is excluded
The Trustees are sorry to learn that
reports have gone abroad, unfavOrable 70
the moral character Of these Institutions
and to feel themselves under the neces-
sity Of adding that such reports are Ut
terIy without foundation On the other
hand they are satisfied that public conf
dence in the character management
and prospects of the Institutions as far
as they are known, has never been SO
great as it IS now, and they are fully
satisfied that this confidence is not mis-
placed.
In conclusion, the Trustees would Sug-
gest that they feel themselves to have
engaged an arduous, but good work
The unparalleled Pecuniary difficult
ties of the country must of necessity
smbarrass and Tetard them very much
n carrying out their plan They new
ertheless do not despair Of placing these I
Institutions amongst the very first OF this (
great valley. They are confident Of {
deserving the patronage OF Liberal and 4
public, and are equally coaEi-
lent that they will receive it,
