This city has a pleasant appearance as
you approach it on the Detroit River, Canada

told YOU find more elevated, drler and better
soil 1t IS more attractive IN appearance, pre-
sentIng cultivated, level foreground, and wood

Michigan on this river being wet. Much praise,
however. cannot be given to the scenery on either
side it is agreeable without being striking, It's
fatness making II monotonous.
Detrol, has scarcely made 1t. escape from the
village yet. Excepting Jefferson-avenue and
few other streets, II Is very struggling. Oardens
and grounds around dwellings are very desirable,
if kept with neatness and taste, but the InhabI'
tants of Detroit cannot claim much admiration
in this respect, many Of their houses being de-
cidedly slovenly in these appointments, although
there are some pleasant exceptions Jefferson

WESTERN MILITARY INSTITUTE,
Drennon Springs, Kentucky.

TENHIS Institution, on account of the rapidly in
i creasing demand for admittance, has been
compelled to change its location-the buildings at
Blue Lick Springs being insufficient for the accom-
mediation Of the large number seeking entrance.
Within the last year two hundred and sixty cadets
have been matriculated, Of whom one hun
bred have left or been discharged mainly for want
OF suitable "quar.ers." Drennon Springs has been
secured as the future and permanent location of the
school To the great body of our patronage, COM
ing as it docs from the South and West, no point
could be more desirable Situated within one mile
Of the Kentucky river, midway between Frankfort
and Louisville, it is easy of access in all directions,
steamboats, passing both ways daily.
The buildings and improvements arevery extern
sive, affording ample room and accommodations
for three hundred cadets
Its retired and healthful position eminently
adapsit for the purposes of Military School. Be-
ing eight mics from any town, it is free alike from
the vices and VACANCIES usually incident to
college life.
The second term Of the animal series opens on
Mouday, tue 10Th OF February, and her CATER the
annual session will regularly open on the second
Monday Of September, and close the last Friday in
June. For further information address

has been erected and furnished. In which the stu
dents Of the Academy board, under the immediate
charge of the Principal and his Assistants; and all
its exercises are conducted . system ofits own,
uninterrupted by the interests or operations Of the
other department. The furniture Of the study
rooms and dormitories has been chosen with pecu-
liar reference comfort aud convenience for study
and no expense has been spared in providing the
apparatus necessary to render the means ofinsfruc
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 rcctc in any of the College classes.
Students also of proper age and discretion, by
commentator Of the Principal and permission Of
the Faculty, may enjoy the use Of the College Ii
brary without additional charge. Admission also
may be had to the Lectures, and such other privi-
leges of the College as can be probably 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 sew
enty- five for the Winter Session. The only extras
are one dollar per session for incidental expenses
and fee Of eight dollars for Modern Languages,
and fee of five dollars for Drawing, from those
who enter these classes. The sessions and vaca-
tions of the Preparatory Department are the same
as those of the College.
