 FNHlS Institution will be opened on the A first Monday of October next, under the care of E. B. ANDREWS, A.B. The loca- tion of this School presents unusual induce ments to the scholar who desires complete freedom from interruption. Cornwall valley was formerly selected as the location of the Foreign Mission School, being preferred be- fore any other in New England on account of the rare combination of its healthiness, beauty, secluson and the morality of it's in- habitants. The advantages of this situation are believed to be unsurpassed by aaysi0 the lund. The facilities Of nGEess by mems of the Housatonic Rail Road and the Hartford, Litchfieid, and PoughkeePsie Stages, place this School within the reach 0fschOlars from abroad. Ss Na3aFrl.8 Y Instruction will be given in all the bran- ches usually taught in our higher schools, including Vocal Music. , < The price of Tuition will be from three to five dollars, according to the studies pursued.
