FEMALE

Messrs. Editors-My attention 10 always arrested by an

ny depend upon the proper culture OF the female mind. Il
Is woman that implsnts in US our 6nt virtuous sentimental.
and her tender care, in most instances. first insults into our
minds the elements OF knowledge. Educate oil the moth

Men may in the cares and anrietes OF business be neglect
ful OF tie early mental culture Of their children but have
never yet seen a mother, whose mind wss irrsdiaied with
The least spark Of intelligence, that did not manifest q prop.
er interest in the education OF her offspring.
l discover from your advertising coiu nus, that Robert q
Branch, ESQ., late Professor OF Ancient Languages in
Hampden Sydney College, proposes to open q Seminary
for Young Ladies', st Prince Edward Court House, about
the hrst OF June. IL 10 a matter VI public interest, when
such men turn their attention TO the cause OF Female Edu-
cation. Mr.. b. possesses high qualifications for the task he
is about To undertake. His standing as q gentleman and
scholar, and his long experience asa public Teacher, will
secure for him the entire confidence Of the community in
which he is best known. and his enterprise will no doubt
be commenced under the most favorable auspices. HIS
conscientious fidelity in the discharge ofevcry duty, gives
assurance that his school will be conducted so rs to secure
the best results to those entrusted To his care.
The proposed Seminary will occupy a delightful situation
about a mile from Hampden Sydney College. MI. Root

pose for which they are about TO be sgsin used. The
