The subscriber believes that he can offer to pa
rents having sons to educate very peculiar advan-
tages in the arrangements, discipline, and instruc-
ton Of his school. His system is adapted to a Sc
lect number Of pupils, with view to the exclu-
sion of bad Materials and the best results to boys
Of good character disposed to study, willing to sub
nit to discipline, and capable Of being influenced by
honorable and virtuous motives. A much larger
amount Of time and labor is devoted to them than
is common in schools generally; the number OF
assistant instructors is large in proportion TO the
pupils, and Of high character for competency and
faithfulness; and the course Of instruction in
the different departments, including the English
language, the classics and mathematics, is thorough
and extensive. The French department continues
to enjoy the very valuable services of Professor
De Loutte.
References can be given, if desired, to gentlemen
in the cities of the District, in Virginia. Maryland
and numerous other States, whose sons have been
educated at this institution during the eight years of
its existence.
