THE COLLEGE OF 81. JAMES, WASH

rJ'HE DIOCESAN COLLEGE OF THE PRO
Il TESTANT EPISCOPAL CHURCH The ninth
annual session will open ON Monday, Oct. Z, 1850,
and continue till the next commencement day."
the last Thursday in July 1851. New students
recommended to enter at the opening of the ses-
sion, but are received at any time they apply, and
the charge is estimated from the date of their
trance.
The COLLEGE has the usual number of classes, af-
iords all the opportunities of complete education,
and, at the successful termination OF the collegiate
course, conters on its graduates the usual academi
cal degrees.
The GRAMMAR School, Immediately adjoining
the College and under the supervision of the Rec
tor but under distinct discipline, receives lads at
the beginning OF their academical course, and pre-
pares them for the co!legate classes. The over
sight and direction of the Professors of the College
secure special advantages TO the pupils in the Gram
school.
In the MERcANTILE GLASSES, the study of the
Greek language is omitted and its place supplied
by additional studies in modern languages, book
keeping, statistics, &c.
The location of the College is entirely healthful,
and, by its distance from towns and villa ges very
favorable to good morals and order.
The whole annual charge, the same in the Col
lege and Grammar school, for the session of ten
months, is two hundred and twenty five dollars,
payable semi annually, in advance

Of the liberal or popular party of Germany, to
which all the immigrants before their emigration

the party bearing that appelation in this country,
as soon as they are able TO exercise the elective
franchise; and the more so, as the country teens
with Democratic papers in the German language.
