EdgefeId Female Institute.
TEHIIE Trustees of this Institution have much
FL pleasure in announcing to the public its per-
feet success during the past year, and they feel
more than ever justified in recommending it to
public patronage.
Believing that private direction of Scholastic
Institutions is more conclusive to their success
and utility than public governancc, they have dis
posed of the property; under proper restrictions,
to the present Principal-Prolessor r. H. NIcI-
Oils, and feel confident, that, under his expert
enccd guidance, the Institution must prosper.
Every step has been taken to render it q truly
SOUTHERN ScHoLL by divesting it, as far as pos
sible, of Northern influence, either literary or
personal, and they feel that they have now a
School in their mids adapted to their utmost pre-
sent and future need.
In relinquishing the proprietorship of the In
stitutc, they by no means lose their socitude for
its success-on the contrary, they will always re-
main watchtul guardians of its vital interests, and
existing still as corporate body, they will ever be
ready to protect and foster it.

Best time to Cut Timber.

A pamphlet has been published under
the supervision of A. S. Roberts, ESQ.,,
corresponding secretary of the Philadel-
phia Society for Promoting Agriculture,
in reference to the best time for cutting
timber for fencing and other agricultural
purposes. 1t embraces the substance of
letters received from various persons, who
had been requested to communicate the
results of their observation on this subject.
The writers do not profess to found their
opinions on experiments conducted in such
manner as to fully settle the question !;
on the contrary, so far as conclusions are
given, they are drawn from such facts as
have fallen in the way of the respective
individuals. For this reason, 1t is not,
perhaps, strange that they should present
great diversity-some think in favor of
the winter as the best time, others mid.
summer, and others autumn. Several,
perhaps majority, of the writers are in
favor of June, or that part of the season
when the bark will most easily peel off,
Such has been the conclusion to which
our own observation has tended. 1t may
be here suggested as probable, that the
general durability of timber cut at this
season of the year, is attributable to its
being divested of its bark as soon as cut
and exposed at once to the drying inAu-
ence of the atmosphere, which soon evap-
crates the moisture, causing so great
shrinkage as efectually to close the pores,
rendering it thereafter almost impervious
to the agents of decomposition.

ADvERT1sE.-He is the sErewd man
who advertises. This is proverbial, the
world over. 1t is simply putting your
goods, wares, merits, plans, suggestions,
bargains, &C., into the eyes of the uni
versal public. Every body reads the
newspaper nowadays. A good adver-
tisement is like taken every man and wo-
men in society by the vest, button hole or
arm, and privately whispering to them i'm
portant matters.
Who are they that succeed in life
The ones who stir up the public, or those
who make no more noise than a church
mouse? Of course the former. The
man of enterprise and intelligence always
puts himself and his merits straight be-
fore the public eye, and keeps them there.
It's the only way to make money, get a
reputation, or be any body.
Advertise, then. Do it generously.
Spend five dollars and get twenty. Do
it judiciously, and you are sure to make
money by it.-Bee.
