BEAUTIFUL THoUGHT 1t cannot be that
earth is mans only abiding place, it cannot be
that our life is bubble cast up by the ocean OF
eternity, to float moment on the wave, and
then sink into darkness and nohingnes, else why
Is it that the aspirations that leap like angels
from the temples of our hearts, are forever wan
derng abroad unsashcd Why is it that the
rainbow and the cloud como over US with a
beauty that is not of earth, then pass away and
leave us to muse upon their faded loneliness p
Why is it, that the stars that hold their festival
around the midnight throne are placed 50 far
above the grasp of our limited faculties, forever
mocking US with their unapproachable glory p
And finally, why is it, that bright forms of hui
man beauty are presented to our vision, then
taken from u.s. leaving the thousand currents of
our affection TO flow back Ike cold and Alpine
torrents from the heart? We are born for q
higher destiny than that OF the earth. There is
a land where the rainbow never fades where
the stars will be spread out before us like islands
that slumber upon the ocean, and where the
beautiful beings that pass here like visions, will
stay in our presence forever.

Ne yvark Academy.

BY late re- organization of this department of
Delaware College, the Board Of Trustees have taken
measures to place it upon a new and improved
foundation, and to cndow il with advantages pos
sessed by few similar institutions in the country
The Academy, heretofore merged in the College,
and of fcourse subjected to all the evils which have
been found to attend the amalgamation of the two
departments in the same building, and under the
same government, now enjoys the privilege Of a
separate establishment, without losing those which
result from its relation to the College proper.
A large and elegant cdifice, with all the neces-
sary fixtures of complete boarding establishment,
has been erected and furnished. i'm which the stu
dents OF the Academy board, under the immediate
charge OF the Principal and his Assistants; and all
its exercises are conducted a system of its own
uninterrupted by the interests operations of the
other department. The furniture Of the study
rooms and dormtories has been chosen with pecu-
liar reference to comfort and convenience for study;
and no expense has been spared in providing the
apparatus necessary to render the means OF nstruc
ton complete; giving to Newark Academy facili
ties for private study and comfortable accommoda-
ton OF students, fully equal to those afforded by
many Of our colleges.
From its intimate relation to the College, students
OF the Academy enjoy many advantages not gen.
orally obtained at institutions Of this kind Those
who wish to pursue some particular branch which
falls more properly within the College course, may
be admitted to recite in any of the College classes
Students also of proper age and discretion, by
commendation OF the Principal, and permission of
the Faculty, may enjoy the use of the College Lii
brary without additional charge. Admission also
may be had to the Lectures, and such other privi-
leges of the College as can be proftaby enjoyed
by Observation-Disclosures.
The charge for Boarding, Washing, Fuel, Light
&c, with tuition in English, Latin, and Greek, is
seventy dollars for the Summer Session, and
enty- five for the Winter Session. The only extras
arc one dollar per session for incidental expenses,
and a fee of eight dollars for Modern Languages,
and fee of five dollars for Drawing, from those
who enter these classes. The sessions and vaca-
tons OF the Preparatory Department are the same
as those of the College.
