tations which their knowledge Of Mr.. Coleman's
ability and zeal as instructor, have led them TO
form Of the results of his teaching. Certainly no
students in the aeademical departments have come

credit 10 their teacher and themselves by their habits

take pleasure in stating, that have for some
years been acquainted with the character OF Mr.
Coleman's school, and that consider him one Of
the most successful teachers in State. The
rapid progress which some of his pupils have been
enabled 10 make in our mathematical and classical
schools, affords the most satisfactory evidence OF
his thorough and complete system of instruction in
those departments.

who came afterwards to this college, justify me in
expressing the opinion that the school is one Of very
high order.

Since my connection with William and Mary Col
ege only one case has come under my observation,
by which have been enabled 10 form opinion
concerning the school of Mr.. Coleman, indepen-
IDENTIFY of the general reputation in which 1t Is held
The qualifications of one young gentleman, who re.
csved his education there, and afterwards attended
my classes. were Of SO high order, thar they not
only insured him the most honorable success, but
convinced me of the high character Of Mr.. Cole
mans school, as well as Of his own superior ac-
quirements and talents a scholar and as an IN
structor, who, not satisfied with mere routine and
learning by rote, makes his pupils enter into the
spirit and true understanding of the subject taught
