I THE CENTRAL AcADEMY.--We desire to com
mend this institution to public patronage ana
favor. 1t is conducted by the Rev. JAMES
NoURsE, and his son Mr. JOSEPH IL. NoURsE, the
former a brother of the gentlemen by whom
the Rittenhouse Academy was instituted, and
from whom many of the most worthy young men
of this city received the instruction and guild
ance in youth that started them in career of
usefulness and success in life. The family with
which they are connected has long been known
here, and many Of its members have distin-
guished themselves in the paths of honorable
usefulness amongst us yet perhaps none more
SO than they who are now engaged in the highly
responsible duty of educating select number
Of young persons for the duties of life, upon
which they are soon to enter.
CENTRAL ACADEMY occupies the second story
Of the old Medical College, at the corner of Z
and 10th streets. For its use this large edifice
was purchased and improved some two years
since The first story is occupied as Bible
depository and general bookstore, the third as
the Masonic Lodge, and the second by this
excellent classical, mathematical and scien-
tifc school. The main room Of the Academy,
in the second story, is forty by thirty feet, and
has frequently been used as public lecture
room. The air has free access from all sides,
and by it's position it is relieved from the noise
and especially from the dust, of the streets.
The ceiling is twelve feet high, and hence the
air is always pure, a thing Of great Importance
in school-room. Some Of the other rooms Of
the same story are used for recitations, which
affords relief to those who are engaged in study
at their desks by withdrawing the noise Of those
who are reciting.
ture, like those in the Rittenhouse and Union
Academies, which we have already noticed The
advantages of these, for comfort, convenience,
cleanliness, steadiness, and quietness to the
pupils, we need not dwell upon. In the Acad-
envy there is room to seat ninety pupils, but
the number is limited to sixty to whom the
whole time of the two principals, from eight
and half a. m. to three p. m, is pledged,
with an assistant part of the time. This num-
Der is not yet filed up, but this will not long
be the case. We perceive by their annual cir
cular that they have made very judicous
selection of books for study, and give their pu-
pills also access to others for consultation. The
terms for tuition are moderate.
| In speaking of this Academy, an intelligent
and discriminating observer remarks, that cit
is sincerely to be hoped that an institution pre-
senting SO many advantages, both for the COM
fort and intellectual advancement of its pupils,
will meet with that liberal public patronage
which it so much deserves; for we sure that
those who are permitted to enjoy the privilege
of receiving instruction at this Academy will
advance in their studies as rapidly as is compati
BILE with judicious course of instruction, and
to the full satisfaction of their parents and
| friends
