WoMEN's RleBrs.- On last Sixth-day eve
ming, we had the pleasure of listening to a
very able discourse from Lucreris Mott, of
Philadelphia, on the subjec, of Women
Rights. Lucretia is member of the Hick-
site division Of Friends, and attended their
Yearly Meeting. which vas held in this place
last week. She is remarkable woman, nos
sessing great mental powers and withal a
great degree Of moral honesty and indepen-
dence, in coming out as she does against SO
many of the popular evils of the day, and O.
versiepping the prescribed limits in which
members OF her society usually move.

inferior to none while they will attempt to make
it superior to most others for thorough practical
and finished education for young Ladies, render
ing them competent to discharge; with ability and
honor, the severe and varied duties which the ex-

The course of study prescribed in this lnstitu-
ton and the means of instruction adopted are
thought to be peculiarly and appropriately adapt
ed to accomplish this desirable end.
With due regard to the comfort and happiness
of the pupils, greater and far higher regard is
had to their proper physical, moral and ineilectu-
aldevelopemenL. While we would not wish young
ladies seeking place of education to forget the
advantages of this place for health and pleasure,
vet we would not invite them here for these alone.
We offer them far more enduring and substan-
tial AZ Iuisition-moral discipline and intellectual

The Principal is assisted by several teachers
well qualified for the departments assigned them,
who reside in the Institution and ever ready to
render such assistance to the pupils as they may
from time to time require. Ample philosophical,
