its advantages available 10 a larger number Of Stu
dents. Two additional professors ha-e been ap-
pointed, one in tho department OF Ancient Lam
guages, and the other in that of Mathematics. The

brace practical surveying, the elements of engi
neering, and other kindred branches. Young men

ton as will bit them to enter upon the regular Col
