ANNUAL CATALOGUE AND EXAMINATION.
The fourth Annual Catalogue of this In.
stitution is before us. There has been du.
ring the past year tho hundred and twen,y
one pupils in attendance-one hundred and
twenty. one in the Male, and one hundred in
the Female Department. This is a con.
siderable increase over former years, and
is the best possible evidence of the useful.
ness of the school and the competency of
those who have its management.
The teachers for the last year were as
follows:
WIN. T. LUCKY, A. M. Superintendent
and Principal of the Female Department
Rev. NATHAN ScARRITT, A. M. Principal
Of the Male Department. EDWIN X. AT.
TERBURY, Assistant in the Male Depart
ment. Miss SARAH JANE ROCKWELL, Asss-
tant in the Female Department. Miss
MARY ROCKWELL, Teacher Of Music and
the Ornamental Branches. Mons J. E.
HAMILTON, Teacher of French.
The patrons of the institution, as well as
the community generally, will regret to
learn, that with the close Of the present ses.
sion ends the connection of Mr.. Scarritt
and the Misses Rockwell with the school,
Mr.. VIM. T. Davis, who is well known 10
most of our citizens, takes the place of the
former; we have not learned who supplies
the places of the latter.
The Annual Examination of the School
commenced on Tuesday afternoon, and ter
minated Thursday. There was a large
number of persons in attendance, both of
our own citizens, and from distance. Our
engagements prevented our attending regu-
larly enough TO speak from personal obser.
walton in reference TO the interesting exer-
cises--but from those who did attend, we
are pleased to hear so favorable report.
The Examining Committee will doubt.
less make report, which will appear next
week.
