PRIVATE EDUCATION.

TWENTY years have apsed since commenced
i the instruction of yonth and | cannot but feel
grateful for the patronage which has been extended
% me during that period. The great ple,-ure which
1t gives To impant the seeds of virtue and know
ledge renders this one OF the most delightful periods
OF my life
In the training of youth the great points are, to
form the character for virtue and usefulness give
them habits of regular aud close application, and
pleasing and agreeable manners In oider TO accom-
plsh these desirable objects, all my pupils reside
der my rooi, eat at the same table with my family of
which they form part and none others are admit
ted Thus constantly brought into contact with me,
the discipline, which is strict aud firm yet parental
paItakes, nearly may be, of the private uniting
with it in some degree the benefit of public insIuc-
ton, and is addressed TO the hearts and good Of
my pupils, where pIact cable rather than 10 their
fears. No pupil is admitted for h,rter period than
ten months, unless by special agreement. The mum
Der admitted will in exceed ID IT, end none
fourteen years, unless previously members of my
family except under extraordinary circumstances
None permitted To rambe at large, and all
quired to conform TO the regulations which are me-
lhodical, and agreeable TO such vruousy dis
posed.
